10:30 pm
nearly 3000 people, 3000 haemophiliacs are dead. because of this. and what causes this emotion is because he nearly became another one. people are being betrayed, they are being lied to. there is a sort of enormous attempt not to get too who is responsible, whether it be government ministers or health professionals, whether it be drug companies... he was usually the photographer... barbara's husband ronald died 25 years ago, having developed hiv after being treated with a contaminated blood product. a time when there were limited options for patients. the treatments for hiv were just in their infancy then. azt was a particularly horrible drug to take. it did not make you feel great.
10:31 pm
so, enduring that... i mean, hejust was an incredibly brave man. for barbara and her children, the process of getting to the truth has taken too long. we are just getting around to having an enquiry that can compel witnesses. so, i think that governments... governments of all stripes have kind of colluded with pushing back against an enquiry. people have been asking for it for a very long time. for decades campaigners have argued that information was withheld from patients and there was a high—level cover—up. there had been previous investigations, but tomorrow sees the start of the first uk—wide, judge—led public enquiry. is this going to be another whitewash?
10:32 pm
will this fail to get the documents we want? will it fail to call the right witnesses? at the minute, i really think that it will be a successful enquiry and i think it will make up for the deficits of other enquiries and i have a lot of faith in this enquiry. but that faith is not shared by sue and steve. none at all. i want to believe it, but to believe it is too big a risk of setting oneself up to be disappointed. in their campaign for justice, they have waited a long time for the tide to turn, but if the enquiry is to come up with answers, they will have to wait some time yet. hugh pym, bbc news. india's prime minister, narendra modi, has launched what's been described as the world's largest free, health—care system. five hundred million people, nearly half the country's
10:33 pm
population, are to get health insurance for the first time, covering treatment for serious illness. but critics say the scheme, known as modicare, isn't properly funded, and has been rushed through, in time for elections next year. with rising levels of mental health problems among university students, there's increasing pressure on the government and vice chancellors, to make the issue a priority. in the future, higher and further education institutions will be rated, on the services they provide. as the new academic year begins, chi chi izundu, you have to be organised. it is not enough to have a degree any more... high amount of debt... the competing pressures of student life. fitting in and trying to be social... social media is always a pressure... if you don't get enough grades... i would be constantly exhausted, suffering from headaches, panic attacks and mild psychosis.
10:34 pm
looking back at my grades, from first down to the point of being so anxious about work, that i just wouldn't be able to submit it. zoe is about to start her third year at university, but struggled in herfirst and second and had to take a year out to recover. at the end of the day, you don't want your student body to be largely mentally ill, so it would make sense for universities to put in place more preventative measures. zoe's situation is not unique. last year, more than 57,000 students told the university they had a mental health condition. ten years ago, not even 10,000 had declared it. mental health experts say that students are turning up to university with well established problems. we have become much more aware from general broad learning, focusing much more on exams and grades. there have also been some change in parenting styles. some students are having less opportunity to kind of fail safely. generally develop broad skills of self— management, which would actually help them
10:35 pm
to overcome some of the problems they are encountering. universities have been criticised for their slow response to this. counselling services are inundated and some argue that help and support should be included in every aspect of student life. at the university of derby, resident assistants live in halls among younger students and it is theirjob to spot any signs of mental health distress and get help. if they start having really abrupt conversations with you, their eye contact will change, even their mannerisms may change, you just start to notice a difference in the person. as well as having students like kat watch out for mental health issues, the university are in the process of training all of their staff and that is from cleaners, right through to lecturers. talking, that is what universities want students to do more. derby also has tailored mental health classes to help them better cope with academic pressures and outside lectures, they are encouraged to have difficult conversations with other students in unusual situations.
10:36 pm
like weeding, while at the allotment society. but, according to the body which represents vice chancellors, while all universities know that there is a problem, not enough are making it a priority. i think university leaders have been slow to adopt this as a priority. with some exceptions, we need to persuade vice chancellors and principals that it really is core to the success of their organisations. i don't think a generation of students will forgive universities who do not prioritise this. chi chi izundu reporting. now, with all the sport, here's ollie foster, at the bbc sport centre... with golf's ryder cup just 5 days away, tiger woods is heading for his first tournament win in5years. the 14 time major winner leads the field by 2 shots with two holes left to play at the season ending tour championship in atlanta. adam wild reports.
10:37 pm
this part of georgia rarely sees crowds like this. then there are few in sport that attract them quite like tiger woods. please welcome, tiger woods. golf's biggest superstar on the hunt for a first win in five years, a site no one wa nts to win in five years, a site no one wants to mess. going into the final day with a three shot lead it immediately became four, a birdie at the first, a glimpse of the nerveless calm for which he was once so nerveless calm for which he was once so revered. behind him other greats of the modern game, rory mcilroy and the world number one, justin rose. even they are struggling to keep up. serious injury and personal problems have taken their toll on tiger woods. last year he was outside the top 1000 in the world. this is a great comeback. tiger once again on
10:38 pm
the charge, a site view they would see again. adam wilde, bbc news. highlights of today's premier league matches follow the news, and the premiership if you are in scotland, but if you want the results now then here they come... chelsea have dropped points for the first time this season. they were at west ham looking to make it six wins out of six but it was goaless at the london stadium. elsewhere arsenal beat everton 2—nil. celtic have made their worst start to a league seaon since 1998. they are 6th in the table after losing 2—1 in injury time at kilmarnock. rangers beat st johnstone 5—1 and are second. anthonyjoshua is potentially one more victory away from becoming the first undisputed world heavyweight champion in almost 20 years. he maintained his unbeaten record by stopping his russian opponent alexander povetkin in the seventh round at wembley stadium. here's our sports correspondent david ornstein. the smile that's becoming the symbol of his unstoppable success. anthonyjoshua carries the belts and the burden of his sport, but with each bout, he gets even better. the appeal is losing, who is going to beat me?
10:39 pm
that's what it comes down, give anthony the toughest of the toughest, get king kong, big up the old school, get him to fight aj, we want to see who is going to beat him, that's the appeal of boxing. anthony. . .joshua. . .! packing a major stadium for the fourth time in just 17 months, joshua was rocked in the first round, alexander povetkin raising the prospect of a massive upset. butjoshua has conquered adiversity in the past and would do so again, the champion showing why he's at the top of his profession, pouncing on his russian prey to score a ruthless knockout and stay on course for a potential superbout in six months' time. the only title missing from joshua's collection is held by the american deontay wilder, while britain's tyson fury is another possible opponent for a boxer with a dream of being crowned the undisputed king of his division. well, that next fight will be back here in april, the key question is who it will be
10:40 pm
against, and as the clamour for anthonyjoshua intensifies, it could be one of the biggest the sport has ever seen. david ornstein, bbc news, wembley. there's more on the bbc sport website but from me. . .. goodnight. that's it. now on bbc one, it's time for the news where you are. have a very good night. further north and west come a day of sunshine and showers, but it has been pretty unsettled over the last few days, with plenty of cloud feeding and across the atlantic. however, we now have a clear gap, high—pressure building its way from the south—west as we start of the new working week, and that means we are going to see plenty of dry weather over the next few days. the nights, though, will be decidedly chilly, there is still the potential for summer wind and chilly, there is still the potential forsummerwind and chain chilly, there is still the potential for summer wind and chain across parts of the north. here is the rain we had out across the south earlier today, clearing away on the radar,
10:41 pm
most today, clearing away on the radar, m ost pla ces today, clearing away on the radar, most places ending the day on a drying up. just there showers which have been feeding away, and will continue to do so through the night. four. 0therwise,, continue to do so through the night. four. otherwise,, you can see the extent of the pale green colours here on our temperature chart. it will be cold even towns and cities, li—macro 5 degrees, and in the countryside, some places getting to freezing and below. as we go on through the day tomorrow, looking like a lovely day for most. north—west scotland want some showers, like most places dry, temperature is just slightly higher than today, 1a to 16 celsius. high—pressure trying to hold firm as we get on into tuesday, but we see something of a change up to the north—east. frontal systems approaching jose mourinho of cloud and some outbreaks of rain. chilly
10:42 pm
start for most of us, but very stunned scotland, england and wales, holding onto some spells of sunshine through the day. northern ireland and western scotland, thickening outbreaks of rain, and for temperatures, drawing ba in from the south—west, at least we are starting to, as the temperatures start crying. —— start to climb. southern areas with the coldest weather, further north with stronger winds, and some bricks of rain, but relatively mild. maybe double digits in places. but breezy cloudy conditions in the north, but some rain in the middle of the week. further south, at times warmer. —— it turns warmer. hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be
10:43 pm
bringing us tomorrow. with me are the former fleet street editor, eve pollard, and laura hughes, who's a political correspondent at the ft. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. the telegraph reports that the foreign secretary is leading ministers in urging the prime minister to drop chequers in favour of free trade agreement. the guardian leads with freedom of information statistics showing less than a third of young men prosecuted for rape are convicted. the daily mail says a jewish labour mp was forced to rely on police protection at the party conference yesterday, as the anti—semitism row continues. also following the labour conference, the daily express says party leaderjeremy corbyn faces a "backlash" after suggesting he could back
10:44 pm
the campaign for another referendum. and the financial times focuses on a new policy proposal from shadow chancellorjohn mcdonnell. in which the labour party will tell companies to turn 10% of their equity over to the staff. and the times says the home secretary wants to grant limitless access to european union migrants for two yea rs european union migrants for two years after a no—deal brexit. so let's go through some of those papers, starting with the telegraph. lovely to have you here, laura. we are talking about a canada style free trade agreement, the headline is that cabinet now backs canada brexit deal, apart from dominic raab, of course, who says it is off the table. this was big stuff in 2017. this was before marlborough house, before chequers, we were wondering about the canada deal. we
10:45 pm
did research. we have. so there is a free trade agreement, so of course one of the problems, and this deal took seven years to sort out. one of the problems is the eu wants to regulate or be involved in some of out regulate or be involved in some of our services, and of course the really interesting thing to them as the city, and they are trying to get, and they have been trying to get, and they have been trying to get, some of our city services for themselves, because they are financially the most important, in a way, and i think 27% of our taxes come from that area. they are now saying that, because of the debacle insults broke, and chequers, they are behind this —— in salzburg and chequers. mr hunt is apparently the one who is reading this. and those
10:46 pm
who were saying that they were going to step down now saying they want to step down if it goes through. to step down now saying they want to step down if it goes throughm to step down now saying they want to step down if it goes through. it is interesting thatjeremy hunt is doing this, he was of course a remainer, and now it is being suggested he has leadership ambitions. so he is appealing to the brexiteers in the conservative party, and also in the country. it is an interesting one, the other option on the table being eight norway style agreement, which would give us continued access to the single market. that is something thatis single market. that is something that is not acceptable to the brexiteers because it would in part include freedom of movement that a lot of people would be uncomfortable with. 4k. what is fascinating about this as there is some part of me, andi this as there is some part of me, and i put it to remain, that says theresa may has dealt with europe in a very civilised manner, and they have dealt with her in an appalling manner. thatjoke have dealt with her in an appalling manner. that joke about have dealt with her in an appalling manner. thatjoke about no have dealt with her in an appalling manner. that joke about no cherries oi'i manner. that joke about no cherries on the cake, that was misogynist.
10:47 pm
task would never have done that if he was a man. —— if she was a man. and there is a sort of feeling that we are better than that, and probably doing this in a sensible way because we can make our services so way because we can make our services so competitive that people would go to germany, and would go to france. —— won't go to germany or france. 4k, —— won't go to germany or france. ak, let's turn to the front page of the i, and eve, you are seeing the picture is the anti—brexit that took place. it is a second thought, the people's vote, and of course, there is no doubt about it, in a lot of people did not know what they were voting for, and a lot of people didn't vote because they didn't know what they were voting for. and i think it is finally, what is irritating me is, why didn't resistance stand up months ago and say, this is good to make it very difficult for us to make jaguar cars, for example? why did they not say it a year ago? the problem is,
10:48 pm
evenif say it a year ago? the problem is, even if you do have a people's vote, when do you do it? timewise... even if you do have a people's vote, when do you do it? timewise. .. and fosters that thought say? —— what does that vote say? watford has to happen is that parliament would reject the prime minister's deal, and she would then go to the public and she would then go to the public and say, you either vote for my deal 01’ no and say, you either vote for my deal or no deal, which are perhaps be an option of not leaving at all? and this is a really tricky situation forjeremy corbyn politically, because he has been opposed to this out, but the labour party are having the confidence at the moment, and on tuesday, the members will vote on this and say, we want the labour leadership to allow the british public to have a vote on the final deal. they would not call it a second referendum as such, they would call it a boat. a people's vote. exactly. and jeremy corbyn has said today that he might perhaps do this. he did not totally say that, because i think you'll find that when you get there, there will be another fight. because the
10:49 pm
paymasters, the unions and all these other people have got to be able to say, and of course jeremy corbyn has been anti—eu all the way through. all right, the gardiner now, and this story grabbed both of your attention. duties convicted less than a third of young men prosecuted for rape because... ——juries. than a third of young men prosecuted for rape because... —— juries.|j think thatjuries are reluctant to give a young man such a long sentence at the beginning of his life. there has been evidence the least years into a case that sometimes show text messages from the young women that completely destroy the prosecution's case. but also i have known people who have been anjuries, and they have acquitted young men who looked at them with bonny blue eyes, and were then in tears afterwards when they discovered this was not the first instance of rape. i think it is a
10:50 pm
very difficult thing and it is terrible how many cases are brought. so yeah, 18 to 2a, with 32% result ina so yeah, 18 to 2a, with 32% result in a conviction. a6% of those aged between 25—59. quickly before we move on to the mail, we have heard from the cps, they have said they are working on a number of different fronts to improve performance in this area, and as you both said, it is when you start looking at the large volumes of communications material that you start to see complex disclosure issues. so they are aware of this, but how an hour you manage all that? and how do you get access to all that? and send the right message to the victims to step forward , right message to the victims to step forward, women and men, of course. 0k, forward, women and men, of course. ok, so let's turn to the mail. proud of your party, mr corbyn? this is the continuation of the
10:51 pm
anti—semitism story that has gone on throughout the summer, and it is terrible that luciano berger, who is an mp, a labour mp, for nearby liverpool in that area, has had to have police to guard her. this anti—semitism thing, , he have police to guard her. this anti—semitism thing,, he had a on tv this morning, on the andrew marr show, to show remorse, he refused to do so, jeremy corbyn. and it is good to get worse and it is going to affect more and more people. laura, could i direct you to the financial times and take us through that story? of course. labour is set to tell companies, rather it's good to be unveiled today, to turn 10% of their equity over to stuff. what do you make of this? i think it would be popular amongst many workers in the company they were told they would get another £500 in their pocket every year in the shape of a dividend, but as we have seen in tomorrow's ft, businesses are not too happy with it. this isjust a
10:52 pm
number of proposals that the labour party over and to put out. we have john mcdonnell speaking at the tuc conference in a few weeks ago, talking about things like collective—bargaining, giving greater shares to staff of their own companies, giving casual workers in the uber and deliveroo drivers the same rights as full employees, which makes companies nervous because it is all compulsory, and they are worried at the company ‘s elite mac comment on this article that it'll scare investors away, and it is mandatory. and the last thing, liz truss, chief secretary to the treasury, said that the policy would make it harder for companies to take on staff as well. eve, if you could ta ke on staff as well. eve, if you could take us back to the front page of the guardian, there is a study of regarding labour and schools. don't know if you've got... with got that, yes. they want to get rid of three schools, dubbed the? well, this may
10:53 pm
be something that they want to do because of their psychological feeling about free schools. my feeling about free schools. my feeling is, having any schools except... and much more worried about faith schools myself, but there won't scrap free schools. what sort of...? there are so many more important things to do, but this is one of their plans. this is what happens at conferences. i have been to many conferences in my life, 99 years! enemy, you are there for days, all sorts of people with very strong views. half the things that happen at conference ever get heard of again. but i think if you have got your child into a free school and you're pleased, this will not satisfy you. it is hard enough a nyway satisfy you. it is hard enough anyway to get places, and if they are doing a good job, fine. laura? it is an ideological argument that keeps coming up, we have theresa may
10:54 pm
and the conservatives propose more grammar schools, something we have not heard a lot about because of the focus on brexit from journalists and politicians alike. it is no great surprise to me to read this article, it is exactly what we thought the labour party were good to do, they wa nt labour party were good to do, they want a labour party were good to do, they wantafairer labour party were good to do, they want a fairer system, in their eyes. they want every school to be on a level playing field. but children are different. my life was changed because i went to a grammar school, totally. children are different, schools are different. what worries me are faith schools that teach children not the sort of things they need to learn about actually making a living, actually doing well. if they are working well, perhaps fine, but ijust worry they are working well, perhaps fine, but i just worry about they are working well, perhaps fine, but ijust worry about religion over reading, writing and arithmetic, which is what they will need. 0k, all right. we are to have a second chapter over the papers later, i have to crack the whip they are a
10:55 pm
bit, i do apologise! will have another chat at 11.30. but for this edition, that is it from the papers, from my guests eve pollard and laura hughes, thank you very much. we will see you at 11.30 for a more in—depth look at the papers. you're watching bbc news, do stay tuned. dumbing up next, we have the weather and the headlines at the top of the hour. don't go away. —— coming up. it was so wet earlier in the day, but clearing up later on. whichever way you slice it, it has been pretty u nsettled way you slice it, it has been pretty unsettled over the last few days, with plenty of cloud fading in across the atlantic. however, we now have a clear gap, high—pressure, build on its way in from the south—west as we start of the new working week, and that means we went to see plenty of high weather —— dry
10:56 pm
weather over the next few days. the knights will be decidedly chilly, there is still the potential for summer wind there is still the potential for summerwind and rain there is still the potential for summer wind and rain across parts of the north. here the rain we had across the south earlier today, clearing away on the radar picture. most clearing away on the radar picture. m ost pla ces clearing away on the radar picture. most places ended the day on a drying up. just a few showers which have been fading away, and will continue to do so overnight. some continuing to blowing over the north of scotland, but otherwise staying dry. clear starry skies overhead, you can see the extent of the pale green on the chart. even in towns and cities is interviewed chilly, for but in the countryside, some places will reach freezing and perhaps even below. so a touch of frost on the odd mist patch tomorrow morning. but as we go in through the day, it is looking like a lovely day for most. some sunshine and maybe the odd showerfor for most. some sunshine and maybe the odd shower for irish sea coast of in london and wales, north of scotla nd of in london and wales, north of scotland as well, but most places dry. temperatures may be slightly

10:58 pm
if labour party members vote for it at conference. iam the i am the elected as a leader of this party, elected as a leader to bring greater democracy to this party. there will be a clear vote in conference, i don't know what will come out of meetings that are going on. following eu leaders' rejection of theresa may's chequers plan last week, the brexit secretary says he won't let the eu dictate negotiations. this is a bump in the road. we will hold our nerve, keep our cool and we will keep negotiating with good faith. we need to keep these negotiations going. iran's president accuses american—backed gulf states of supporting groups behind a deadly terror attack on a military parade yesterday.
