where it will turn heavy. temperatures relatively cool. highs between 11 and 15 degrees. turning milder by tuesday. as this milder air pushes in from the atlantic. that's because of a warm front from —— moving across the country. the warm airwill —— moving across the country. the warm air will become confined doing when and wales through tuesday. this weather fronts bringing the focus for spots of rain across parts of england and northern ireland. the best of the sunshine in the colder air across scotland. temperatures here reaching double figures in the warmest areas. for example, aberdeen and edinburgh. those temperatures as high as 21 degrees in london, a much warmer day. as we had through the rest of the weekend, it will be cloudy and we will see some rain at times through the north—west of the country in particular. perhaps try bacuna as we head into the weekend. that is sure latest weather.

hello. this is bbc news. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow mornings papers in a moment — first the headlines. officials in indonesia say they fear thousands of people may have died in the earthquake and tsunami which struck the island of sulawesi. rescuers are still trying to reach people thought to be trapped under rubble. theresa may urges the conservative party to "come together" and back her brexit plan as their annual conference gets underway in birmingham. she also accuses labour of undermining the national interest. my message to the labour party is that they should stop playing politics with brexit and start acting... start acting in the national interest. my message to my party is, let's come together and get the best deal for britain. elon musk agrees to step down as the chairman of electric car company, tesla, over a misleading tweet. as part of a deal struck with us regulators both he and the company will pay 15—million pound fines each.
10:32 pm
and... europe's golfers regain the ryder cup from the united states, beating the americans seventeen—and—a—half, to ten—and—a—half. francesco molinari becomes the first european to win five points in one ryder cup. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are ruth lea, who's economic advisor to the arbuthnot banking group and the author and journalist, rachel shabi. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in.
10:33 pm
as the first day of the conservative party conference draws to a close the guardian claims divisions within the party erupted and that theresa may was left fighting to exert her authority. the i reports that leading conservatives launched an attack on borisjohnson after he labelled the prime minister's brexit plan, "deranged". in an interview with the daily mail the chancellor philip hammond has said mrjohnson is incapable of grownup politics and is ‘doomed' to fail in his bid to be the next pm. and the metro's headline...."just zip—it bojo". and in other news, the ft carries a photograph of rescuers saving a young girl trapped in her house following the devastating earthquake and tsunami that hit the indonesian island of sulawesi. the death toll now stands at more
10:34 pm
than eight—hundred. and this photograph on the front of the daily telegraph captures the moment of europe's triumph at the ryder cup in france, the headline, europe united injoy. you can see what they are doing you can see what they are doing there. time for our chat. ruth and rachel. we gave a little hint of what is dominating. could it be the tory party conference? what will we start with? i have got the daily mailand start with? i have got the daily mail and the fact that phillip hammond has been mocking johnson's failure to grasp detail and his
10:35 pm
plummy voice. fiscal phil. this is a eeyore actually having a go at borrowers. philip claims that the biggest achievement was his boris likes. that apart, i think the chances of him having a successful challenge to theresa may is slim. you think about it, there are 316 tory mps and it is most unlikely to get anywhere near half of those mps actually having no confidence in her. there might be 50 or 60 but to get to 159 is boast an unlikely. i think she looks pretty safe, apart from boris. ithink think she looks pretty safe, apart from boris. i think we are speculating about something that is not really going to happen at all. do you think he's going for the leadership? he is permanently doing that but unfortunately for him, not only are senior conservatives
10:36 pm
publicly dissing him now, we have phillip hammond and also ruth davidson, the scottish conservative leader saying that his remarks were unwarranted when he called theresa may's chequers deal to range. she is advising that he takes a period of silence. —— arranged. the polling also suggest that he would be wise to put a lid on his relentless ambition to lead the party. the mail on sunday today was suggesting that conservatives, it had 10,000 voters ina conservatives, it had 10,000 voters in a poll conservatives, it had 10,000 voters ina polland conservatives, it had 10,000 voters in a poll and it showed that the conservatives would do worse under borrowers. and another poll today suggested that conservative voters
10:37 pm
overwhelmingly support the chequers deal, not his version of brexit. it seems like he really does not have ground. i am not sure it is true about chequers. it is a political poll. that sounds dodgy. about chequers. it is a political poll. that sounds dodgyi about chequers. it is a political poll. that sounds dodgy. i will tell the that next time i see them. one of the points that is being made is that boris is very much targeting and has the momentum with grassroots activists and he has got this rally that he is going to be attending on tuesday. i had a quick checkup of theresa may's twitter feed and she makes a very pointed message and pointed comment about enjoying being out with grassroots activists. who do you really think has the momentum there? is it boris or is it theresa
10:38 pm
may? that is a strong word to use for either of them, neither of them by the great leaders that i would imagine the conservative party faithful would wish to have at this moment. i think my gut feeling is that in some way they would like boris but in other ways they think party unity is much more important at this stage. the membership do appreciate that they are in a crucial period of their time and they say whatever we think of boris, at the moment, we will stick with the prime minister and i think any challenge to him by the parliamentary party would almost certainly fail. for the time being, just forget it. when you talk about unity and we turned to the guardian and the headline there is that theresa may is fighting to
10:39 pm
assert their authority. there are other issues that need to be addressed apart from brexit at the conference. the guardian is reporting about the splits that are dominating conservative conference and are expected to for the rest of the week including brexit. 0ver and are expected to for the rest of the week including brexit. over the la st the week including brexit. over the last few days and towards the end of the labour party conference in liverpool last week. conservative ministers and commentators said, the tories had better come up with something because apart from brexit, they have got zero policies. we have had a week of the labour party putting together a pretty solid and pretty left—wing, radical... it would wreck the economy. it would revive the flat—lining economy. whether or not you agree, there is the consensus of an opinion that it isa the consensus of an opinion that it is a bold and large series of policies. wrecking ball. the conservatives have nothing, it is all fairand conservatives have nothing, it is all fair and well to say it is nonsense and have nothing to counter with, which is what the conservative
10:40 pm
problem is. they do have policies. name one. phillip hammond and fiscal control... that is not a policy, it isa control... that is not a policy, it is a statement. it is. you try get the finances of the country right. it isa the finances of the country right. it is a statement of intent. it is a policy which is better than nationalisation. there is overwhelming support for that. even conservative voters in favour nationalisation, so you have a problem. it is fantasyland, who is going to pay for it? we like it when people do not agree. there is popular support for these policies, it does not matter whether we agree. they are not looking at the reality of it. can i say something quickly
10:41 pm
about the guardian story? these divisions have been robbed in for a long period of time, ever since the chequers proposals were announced in july so it is not a story, this is a rehash of what we already know. let us rehash of what we already know. let us turn to the daily telegraph and jeremy hunt, the last speaker at the conference. quite a fewjokes in there. did you see the speech? i did not see the whole speech. we are going to see it. a treat in store. it was fascinating. the eu behaving like the soviet union. rachel. this is outrageous. for a foreign secretary to say. it is embarrassing. they are just damaging the reputation of britain in the world. it is incredibly insensitive. no sense of humour. i do not know what to say to that. what he said was, if the eu punishes britain for
10:42 pm
a living, other countries will want to escape. i think that probably will happen and we will get punished for leaving, but which other countries want to escape? i cannot think of one. look at the euro barometer surveys and they do not seem to suggest any at all but i think this is not really about what he said, this is about indications of where his particular career might go. another leadership position? you said it! can we make clear about the eu? britain decided to leave, the eu is not punishing britain and secondly, obviously they will give preferential treatment to members of the eu, that is how it works. it is not based on any semblance of fact. that is whatjeremy hunt said. i was going to say, this page is for his
10:43 pm
audience, isn't it? i think we might agree a little bit on that. he is representing the entire country. it is no good to say he is playing to his crowd. he is foreign secretary, he has a national responsibility to represent us all. he is playing to the gallery. it is a political speech playing to the gallery. the gallery. it is a political speech playing to the gallerylj think speech playing to the gallery.” think foreign secretary should play the gallery. ifi may think foreign secretary should play the gallery. if i may say so, i thinkjeremy hunt is a chorus in any leadership campaign, but he is coming up on the rails. coming up on the rails. if you like horse racing. 0k. let us turn to be independent, we are still talking about brexit. senior tories acting like political jihad ease. the biggest donor is
10:44 pm
saying this, because i have been saying this, because i have been saying that they are acting like fundamentalist, because they are.” do not think all people who voted to leave are fundamentalist, i think that the extreme brexit wing of the conservative party are fundamentalists, that is quite a big distinction. there was a story last week... earlier. offa distinction. there was a story last week... earlier. off a donor, a tory donor who said, i will put a million into a new campaign for the people's vote. we a re into a new campaign for the people's vote. we are hearing a lot from their donors now. i think that is fair enough. they do donate a lot of money but i think in this particular case, they are donors who do not wa nt case, they are donors who do not want a no deal option. personally, i
10:45 pm
would not mind if there was no deal option, which probably makes me a rather extreme person, but there we go. that puts you in the fundamentalist camp, yes. your stereotype be me but i do not mind. iam very stereotype be me but i do not mind. i am very tolerant. to be frank, the main outcome is that there will be some sort of fudged deal. some sort of faintly based on chequers but not quite. there will be a lot of face—saving that will go on. i think there will be some sort of deal and we have been talking about phillip hammond, he brought his budget forward to the 29th of october and i think why is he doing that? wherein there is a deal that is agreed, they will have an extraordinary summit and agree. do you think it is very valid that britain have been saying, the eu has said we do not like this
10:46 pm
chequers steel, so tell us, give us the alternatives. do you think that is fair enough or is it obvious that the points they are not happy about? even this morning you were still hearing from members of the conference saying we want to know exactly what they are not happy with because they have not spoken to us about it? i think the eu has been fair, they have said no cherry picking in the single market and what does chequers do, it cherry picks. they are talking about the single market, this is not the single market, this is not the single market, this is not the single market for it and it is quite absurd. ithink single market for it and it is quite absurd. i think there is going to have to be some sort of face—saving fudge and then there were some of the proposals for the irish border which are clearly nonstarters and the irish border is still apparently an intractable problem. i believe in fudge... what does all apply? some
10:47 pm
sort of a free trade agreement. and indeed that is what the commission was suggesting when the transition agreement was agreed back in march. i must admit when i looked at the transition proposals and they had been agreed, i thought we might be getting something somewhere here. problems of ireland, that is still a problem, but otherwise i thought there was progress. a free trade deal,, the there was progress. a free trade deal, , the canadian there was progress. a free trade deal,, the canadian one took seven yea rs deal,, the canadian one took seven years to put in place. what the eu wants and what there is a majority constituency for in parliament and i think in the country, is some kind of customs union with the eu, because there is no other way of resolving the northern ireland issue. never! you want to break up
10:48 pm
the union? there is no other way. also, businesses and the trade unions who agree on nothing agree on the fact that britain needs to stay in some kind of customs union. poll the other one! you either of business and you are antagonising business, it is so weird. they got everything wrong, they got the euro wrong, the erm wrong, the less like they got mrs thatcher wrong. the cbi, i love them dearly, some of them are my best friends but really they are hopeless. we cannot stay they are hopeless. we cannot stay the customs union and there are technological solutions to the irish border and i think that will be part of fudge which was mentioned by michel barnier. the daily telegraph
10:49 pm
we will turn back to an gp appointments go unused at the weekend. many of us did not even realise that you have the option of agp realise that you have the option of a gp appointment at the weekend.” had a doctor's appointment at the weekend recently. i did know that but more than one in four gp appointments are unused at weekends which is a huge amount. it is really ha rd which is a huge amount. it is really hard to get a doctor's appointment and can take weeks to get an appointment and this idea that there are available slots that are going unused at the weekend according to the telegraph, this is mostly a matter of people being unaware that the slots access and you can get weekend surgeries. that is disappointing, but i agree with every single word. we have found the consensus. they sold it for us. we are going to go back to the guardian and this story really caught my
10:50 pm
attention. a health alert over a rise in child sleep disorders. this is on the front page of the guardian. i am not surprised. the experts are attributing this surge in disorders to rising obesity levels which is possible, and excessive social media before they go to bed. i think that is very plausible because i know what it is like when i fiddle around with my computer at 12 o'clock at night i do not want to go to sleep. i want to banish it from my bedroom. there is a real problem here. the thing that got me, was that there was a worrying amount of admissions of children with sleep disorders. i know adults go to the gp and say
10:51 pm
they cannot sleep and look for sleeping pills, but children are being admitted to hospital because of the sleep disorder. to me, that isa of the sleep disorder. to me, that is a new one. that is what the alert is a new one. that is what the alert is over. there has been a rise in admissions to private clinics and also this one child sleep specialist unit, nhs doncaster, and they are completely overwhelmed with families coming to them not knowing what to do and they are looking at causes, notjust do and they are looking at causes, not just technology although that is a big factor, apparently polite, the blue light the screens, suppresses sleep hormones. it is notjust that, it is about the kids, they have overwhelming pressure, don't they? schools, they seem to have way more work to do, way more homework... consta ntly work to do, way more homework... constantly tested. stress of that, the stress of social media, it is
10:52 pm
all making young people anxious and it is not really surprise info.” ee, it is not really surprise info.” agree, i it is not really surprise info.” it is not really surprise info.” agree, i agree! you must stop doing that. the piece also talks about a good sleep routine. this is difficult enough for adults. and also, we have to admit, that when they start playing and engaging on they start playing and engaging on the social media. it is like 0k they are quiet, i can do something else. it is difficult, because we are going to have to start enforcing sleep routines as the parents, so that the kids fall into it as well and then removing the phones and the ipad is from the bedrooms. that is the big one. there is the rather smart lady, from location, location,
10:53 pm
location. kirstie allsopp. she smashed her kids ipad is because she said that is enough. she smashed them. didn't she smashed them against a table leg? she got a lot of criticism. she left twitter because she was getting so much trolling but i thought she had a point. take them out of the room. i would have given them to the cats protection league. we're talking a lot about social media but there is also the idea that we are not tired enough at the end of the day. because they are not exercising. more physical activity. society is just not conducive to that. everything has been head like a ce ntre everything has been head like a centre so it is no wonder that kids are affected. rachel, ruth... thank
10:54 pm
you very much. ruth and rachel will be back at half past eleven for another look at the papers. let's find out how the weather is looking. hello there. england and wales had a pretty cloudy day on sunday, a number of showers in the northern half of the uk, you can see them on the radar, especially in scotland where they were blustery and showers in northern ireland and the north of wales and across the north of england as well. that is what the showers look like while passing the highlands, a rainbow there with some sunshine between the shower clouds. 0vernight, a ridge of high pressure toppling in across the country and that will tend to clear the skies. a slow process and there will be showers running down the coasts and northern areas of scotland, continuing through the night. with a combination of clear skies and light winds, it will be cold. temperatures in the countryside
10:55 pm
will get low enough for some pockets of frost particularly across scotland, northern england, one or two areas of northern ireland and even as far south as the south of england. temperatures could get to zero in the coldest locations. into monday morning and although it is a cold start to the day, plenty of early morning sunshine. it will tend to turn cloudier in the north and west in the afternoon, rain getting into the north and west of scotland where it will turn heavy and temperature are still relatively cool, between 11 and 15 degrees, but by tuesday, as the milder air pushes in, it is turning milder because we have got a warm front moving across the country, increasingly that warm air will become confined to england and wales through tuesday, a lot of cloud, the weather front becoming the focus for rain in northern ireland. the best of the sunshine will be in the colder air that we have across scotland. here, temperaturesjust
10:56 pm
about reaching double figures in the warmest areas, for example aberdeen and edinburgh, temperatures should get up to 12 degrees. further south, quite a contrast with those temperatures as high as 21 degrees in london, a much warmer day. looking at the weather as we head through the rest of the weekend, it will be cloudy and we might see some rain at times in the north—west of the country in particular. perhaps drier as we head into the weekend. that is your latest weather. this is bbc news. i'm lukwesa burak. the headlines at 11 — more than 800 people are known to have died in the indonesian earthquake and tsunami. as rescuers search the rubble for survivors, relatives wait anxiously for news. iam going i am going out of my mind. i do they
10:57 pm
wear my children are. i have no news at all. theresa may accuses labour of undermining brexit and urges conservatives to unite behind her as her party's annual conference begins. my my message to the labour party is that they should stop playing politics with brexit. we need to come together and get the best deal for britain. new research suggests young people between the age of 16 and 2a
