6:01 am
you. and the horrors of a second world war bombing raid brought to life by virtual reality. and then whether, the temperatures may be up—to—date, but the wind is as well. quite a breezy day across the country. the best of the sunshine in the north—east. i will have all the details right here on brea kfast. it is tuesday 2 october. our top story: there is growing anger over indonesia's response to friday's devastating earthquake and tsunami. survivors are facing a fifth day without water or power. the united nations says up to 200,000 people are in desperate need of aid, but rescue workers are still struggling to reach them. the uk government is sending £2 million to help with the relief effort. jenny kumah reports. homes and lives destroyed in palu. the survivors are facing their fifth day without power and water. around a8,000 people have nowhere to live. but, amid the despair, there is hope.
6:02 am
after days under the rubble, rescuers managed to release this man from his concrete tomb. the authorities have confirmed there was a fault with the tsunami detection system. a warning was sent out, but it appears to have underestimated the scale of the waves, and many didn't get the alerts because of power cuts. when the flooding hit, this mother picked up her two children and ran. translation: we were running for our lives, the waves chasing us. it's like a bad dream. when is help going to arrive? when will the government pay attention to us? rescuers face a massive task, especially in trying to reach remote areas. foreign aid is on its way. in addition to the work we do with our partners on the ground, the un and the red cross, we've also made some additional funding available to help with immediate need,
6:03 am
and following a request from the indonesian government, we have deployed a team of disaster response experts. the military has put on flights to aid the evacuation of thousands. 0thers aid the evacuation of thousands. others have joined limited commercialflights others have joined limited commercial flights out of palu. theresa may has been expanding on her pledge to take back control of britain's borders after the uk leaves the european union. the prime minister has confirmed there will be no preferential treatment for eu citizens, and that fewer low—skilled workers will come to britain post—brexit. 0ur correspondent iain watson is at the conservative party conference in birmingham for us this morning. good morning to you. we will be speaking to theresa may herself around 7:40am this morning. but is there anything new in this immigration announcement?m
6:04 am
there anything new in this immigration announcement? it is the biggest shakeup to immigration in this country for a generation. largely the details are as were lea ked largely the details are as were leaked just over a week ago when this was discussed in cabinet, and we received a report from the migration advisory committee which told them effectively to concentrate on high skilled emigration rather than low skilled migration. that is exactly what ministers are going to do. effectively they are saying a new aggression system post— brexit will be based on people's skills, not their nationality, no special treatment for the eu. you also have to look at the small print of this announcement. some sectors will struggle in the short term, so they are talking about temporary exemptions for agriculture and low skilled workers, and also people coming in on small to make short—term business trips, fly in, fly out business trips, will be subject to light touch immigration and the same system could be applied if we do trade deals with other countries. nonetheless it will allow the government to say very clearly that they are ending free movement for workers. the prime minister will
6:05 am
see this as a big announcement, some ring where she is effectively delivering on her post— referendum promise. but what may even potentially overshadow this is a visit from the former foreign secretary, not speaking at the main stage but speaking in another room behind us, a 700 capacity room. he is not just behind us, a 700 capacity room. he is notjust coming to talk about brexit. we know he doesn't like the prime minister's chequers deal, the deal she was struck with the eu, but he will talk about a low tax economy —— she will strike with the eu. he warns conservatives not to ape jeremy corbyn, so a bigger challenge across—the—board for the prime minister than the narrow aspect of brexit policy. an extra £240 million of emergency funding will be spent on the social care system to ease pressure on the nhs this winter. health secretary matt hancock will tell the conservative party conference he hopes the money will free up hospital beds by helping older people get home more quickly when they are medically ready to leave. the local government association welcomed the extra money,
6:06 am
but said short—term funding solutions weren't the answer. the charity save the children says suspected cholera cases in yemen have almost tripled since june. it coincides with escalating fighting in the country's ongoing civil war, which began three years ago and has claimed more than 10,000 lives. the children's charity has renewed calls for a ceasefire from all sides. a group of mothers are going to the high court to challenge surrey county council's proposed cut to its special needs and disability budget. the women all have disabled children, and theirjudicial review will contend that they should have been consulted on the planned £21 million cuts. surrey county council says its focus is to make sure children get the support they need. passengers have been left stranded after budget airline primera collapsed, cancelling all scheduled flights. the icelandic—owned airline ceased all operations at midnight, with many passengers unsure of alternative travel options. and you have the details. there are
6:07 am
around 2000— 5000 people who are stuck on the wrong side of the atla ntic stuck on the wrong side of the atlantic at the moment, people who have taken atlantic at the moment, people who have ta ken advantage atlantic at the moment, people who have taken advantage of the cheap fa res offered by have taken advantage of the cheap fares offered by the airline and are now stuck somewhere. we know, as you say, it suspended all its flights last night at midnight, and this means there are thousands more people out of pocket because these flights they were due to take have been cancelled. and the advice is if you have applied looked with them, don't go to the airport because it will definitely not be running. lots of people will be thinking i have never heard of this airline before, and that is because it has been running for some time, it has been running for some time, it has been running for some time, it has been running for 14 years, but the majority of what it did was flying scandinavian people to the south, to lots of hot holidays in spain, and
6:08 am
the like. but earlier this year they expanded and started offering really cheap flights from the uk to the us. so they started ranching in the long haulflights. you so they started ranching in the long haul flights. you could so they started ranching in the long haulflights. you could get a flight with them for £99 at one point from the uk to the us. which you would snap that up, wouldn't you? especially if you were on a budget and you had never been to the united states, you would think cracking, this is a way to do it. but what has happened is they have expanded too quickly. with all these different routes they are saying the aircraft they were due to get from a bus were not delivered on time, so they were having to charter planes at extremely high costs compared to how much they were getting from passengers. so when you start looking at the figures, they just don't add up, with less. and that has been a problem with them. and also it is this time of year, as well. it was this time last year that molik went bust, and that is because the airlines are quite cash
6:09 am
rich in the summer. this time of year, not so. so if you have cash flow problems, this is a time when it really bites. the company are saying they can't meet the financing they need to be able to operate, so the best thing they can do is stop the airline, but so disappointing for so many people. how will people get home? we don't know yet. people have been told to look out for flight operations, flights you can get on, compensation is a really tricky one. we will be talking about that throughout the programme, with lots of people getting in touch who are stuck. you might be covered by your credit card and things like that, but i will run through that a little later. a spectator at the ryder cup says she has lost sight in her right eye after being hit by a golf ball whilst watching the event. the incident happened on the opening day of the tournament, when american brooks koepka's drive veered off—course, striking 49—year—old corine remande. she is now considering legal action to help her cover medical bills. tributes have been paid

6:11 am
the only way, the head against the wall. he is quite a character. the most wonderfully charming man. he is quite a character. the most wonderfully charming manlj he is quite a character. the most wonderfully charming man. i was reading that he tried to retire a few times but has fans kept insisting he come back. —— his fans. going from the personification of gallic charm tojose mourinho. going from the personification of gallic charm to jose mourinho. a bit ofa gallic charm to jose mourinho. a bit of a huff. can ijust say if gallic charm to jose mourinho. a bit of a huff. can i just say if you gallic charm to jose mourinho. a bit of a huff. can ijust say if you are fed up with hearing about him, i am really sorry, but he keeps making more headlines. manchester united play in the champions league tonight. champions league returns tonight, but the focus remains on manchester united manager jose mourinho and his future at old trafford. united have now endured their worst start to a season for 29 years, after losing at west
6:12 am

6:13 am
terrifying. you would have to have nerves of steel to do that. that is portugal. i am disappointed you have not mentioned it in the heights of double—decker buses. not mentioned it in the heights of double-decker buses. sorry, iwill compare it to the size of wales, or something like that. back to our top story — the continuing search and rescue operation for survivors of the indonesian tsunami. the bbc‘s rebecca henschke is in palu for us this morning. rebecca, what's the latest? we know there are so many difficulties. where i am now is a makeshift camp which has been set up in the town hall, near local government officers. people who have been able to make it here, they have
6:14 am
all lost their homes either in the earthquake was swept away in the tsunami. here, they are getting now some basic supplies. two meals a day of rice and egg. they are also getting some clean water. people are telling me that that is what they are running out of, desperately needing clean water. we are seeing now are more aid trickling in. the military in increasing its personnel here, as well as the central government sending in supplies. but this is now the fifth day palu has been without power, and the city is running out of petrol on basic supplies. although people here have been incredibly patient, they are calm in very hot weather under these plastic tents, there has been losing in the city a short while ago, clashes between the police there with them firing warning shots into the crowd to calm the situation
6:15 am
down. desperate people here. as you say, a sort of increasing sense, don't you, frustration, and the warning system mightn't have been working. what more can you tell us? that's right, officials have told us that the buoy, the tsunami warning system wasn't working, it hasn't been working for some time. it wasn't maintained by the government, and people that i have been speaking to say they received no official warning that there was a tsunami, although one was released. they say they were left to their own devices. those that read the signs correctly saw the water being drawn out from the bay and ran to higher ground. but they only had a matter of minutes to do that. and for many people it just of minutes to do that. and for many people itjust wasn't long enough. 0k. thank you very much indeed for
6:16 am
that update, and we will come back to that story of course throughout the programme. let's take a look at the weather now and matt is out on an east london rooftop for us this morning. look at that skyline. yes, beautiful. good morning. stunning, isn't it? on top of a building overlooking the city, and it is a beautiful start as far as the view is concerned. a bit breezy he admittedly and that is the story for many of you. so if we take a look at the forecast today, yes, temperatures up a degree on yesterday morning, but at the same time it is much more windy, some of the most windy conditions in northern scotland, where we will see gales at times, but across scotland and north—east england we will see the best of the sunshine today because we have some weather fronts pushing in through the night across into parts of northern ireland, parts or central—southern england
6:17 am
and wales at the moment with outbreaks of rain or drizzle and it could be damp for some parts of northern ireland and across parts of wales and the far north—west of england. we will see rain or drizzle pushing to the south—east in the next few hours but things across southern counties will brighten up this afternoon with some sunshine at times, the best in north—eastern england and scotland, just a few showers in the final. temperatures today in the north around ten to 15 degrees, we could see 20 celsius with the breeze in the south—east corner. into tonight, the cloud across southern and western areas will push northwards once again, so clouding overfor will push northwards once again, so clouding over for parts of northern england and western areas of scotland, stopping temperatures from dropping away. we will see a little bit of rain into the far north—west later on. and temperatures for most will stay in double figures. but four eastern scotland, north—east england, the skies are clearest for longest, so it is a chilly start tomorrow with temperatures in single figures. so for tomorrow we start with brightness across eastern areas
6:18 am
but it will be scotland and northern ireland with the thickest cloud and we will see outbreaks of rain or drizzle coming and going in the far north of scotland mainly. not as windy tomorrow. and with the sunshine for england and wales in particular, even though temperatures are down at a free or so, it will feel more pleasant. temperatures in scotla nd feel more pleasant. temperatures in scotland and northern ireland poptart on today. into thursday we will see the rain spread in across the north—west of scotland, spreading into northern ireland through the afternoon. eventually into north—west england. maybe showers for north—west england and wales. further south and east it will be a day of increasing sunshine. 0nce will be a day of increasing sunshine. once again, with the sunshine, temperatures could reach 20 degrees in the south—east corner but thursday will be breezy once again. certainly for today the strongest of the wind in northern scotland, but across scotland and northern ireland we will see the best of the sunshine. i will have more on that through the morning. thank you very much indeed and it is rather lovely looking at the skies. see you later. thank you. it looks
6:19 am
gorgeous. let's take a look at today's papers. the front page of the mirror claims the tories are in meltdown, with a picture of borisjohnson running through a field of wheat, is it wheat? which some see as mocking theresa may, who once claimed it was the naughtiest thing she did as a child. i want someone to tell me who knows if it is wheat or not. ok, you can tell me. is it wheat? the telegraph runs the same picture, but it's main story is about a government promise that people who see their gp with possible signs of cancer will get a diagnosis within three weeks. and the front of the mail has a story about "post brexit" migration, which claims far fewer low—skilled workers will be allowed in from europe. their picture is esther mcvey who says she was given to barnardos by her parents as a child and then
6:20 am
taken back a few years later. and a photo of charles as —— aznavor. and trending on twitter this morning is reaction to a programme on bbc one last night called "drowning in plastic", which laid out the shocking extent of plastic pollution in our seas. let's take a look at the inside pages of the papers. yes, it was brilliant, the conversation keeps moving on all the time and quite a few people said we are going to take action and do something and she encouraged even the little things to make a big difference. let's try. we do try, don't we? yes. steph, what have you got? minority depressing. it is ok, the nature of news. yes, it is, i am afraid, it isjust a tough time the companies are having at the moment and the ft is talking about ryanair, earlier i was talking about an airline that has gone bust overnight, and here is a story about ryanair, not as bad as that, but
6:21 am
they say that the full year profits are not as good as they thought they we re are not as good as they thought they were and so they put out a profit warning. this is because, if you think about it, so much going on re ce ntly think about it, so much going on recently with the strikes that have happened, also, like all of the airlines, facing higher oil prices, so airlines, facing higher oil prices, so the fuel that they need to fly people, they say all of that has impacted the profits they are going to make. similarly, royal mail saw the share price plummet, they lost £1 billion off the value of the company in 90 minutes and always there is the caveat that it might fly up again today and the money could be put on, it is theoretical at this point, that's because they put out a profit warning to say they haven't saved as much money as they thought they would this year and they say they think it is because letter volumes have fallen again, we are sending fewer letters and that has put pressure on them. so, yes. not good. not the best news for the business world and this time of year can be quite tough. can we look at a bit of party and? please do. these
6:22 am
are the party pictures that have been posted on social media with the ryder cup been posted on social media with the rydercup win, been posted on social media with the ryder cup win, excellent time, tommy fleetwood in the middle of all about, thomas bjorn late in the programme and eu recognised this? nick grimshaw? it is nick grimshaw! —— and do either of you recognise this? he was the dj at the party. he is really good friends with tommy fleetwood's wife. he is wearing the lid of the ryder cup on his head and it looks like it was a good night for everyone concerned. 0ne it looks like it was a good night for everyone concerned. one little thing i want to show you, though, someone thing i want to show you, though, someone having a sense of humour failure. 0h, fernando verdasco? what are you even thinking about, make? can we show the video later? fernando verdasco playing a game of tennis, the ball kid who was around to provide tennis balls and to do theirjob, also providing at howell toa theirjob, also providing at howell to a player, this kid didn't bring the towel quickly enough to fernando velasco and he went bonkers, quite frankly, he got really grumpy about

that dries me mad if i see someone on their phone. aru and honker? -- are you a honker? should ijust stopped? there are 20 different reasons. what is another one? slow drivers, middle lane holders, my least favourite, people who beat at you for no reason, yes, really annoying. 20 different ones and they are trying to say, keep it clean, everybody. if it is only you in the car. i have children in the car. that is a bit of a... talking about that surfer, and i completely misheard you, you said 20.72 metres? i heard 72 metres as well. it was 20 metres, it wasn't a 72 metres. she is really good! look at the size of the wave, the size of the world!
6:25 am
like a tsunami, isn't it? yes, thank you very much. a growing number of patients with learning disabilities are being physically restrained in hospital units, according to new figures obtained bbc radio 4's file on 4 programme. there's been a 50% increase in the past two years in england and a former social care minister who introduced guidelines to reduce the use of restraint says it's shameful. 0ur correspondent lucy adams has this report. it broke my heart, to be honest with you. i still find it broke my heart, to be honest with you. istill find it it broke my heart, to be honest with you. i still find it difficult to deal with that. you. i still find it difficult to dealwith that. louisa's you. i still find it difficult to deal with that. louisa's son austin spent more than a 10th of his life in hospital units. 0nce spent more than a 10th of his life in hospital units. once he was detained, she couldn't get him back out. he didn't break the law, but he has autism and learning disabilities. in the unit, she says he was often restrained. various levels of restraint, you can have restraint which is physically hands—on. that may involve several people sitting austin on a bed and holding him down. high levels could
6:26 am
bea holding him down. high levels could be a prone restraint, where you are actually placed fully down. and that may involve several people having to do that to you. guidelines calling for a reduction in the use of restraints on people with autism and learning disabilities were published by the uk government in 2014, but an investigation by the bbc has found that the use of restraint has actually increased. in 2016, it was used in hospital inpatient units on such people 15,000 times. in 2017, that went up to 22,000 times. and prone restraint, at which the guidelines said should no longer be used, has also increased. last year it was used 3000 times. norman lamb was the social care minister when the guidelines were introduced. these figures are really shocking and completely unacceptable. we issued guidance back in 2014, making
6:27 am
clear that restraint should be absolutely the last resort. many providers have demonstrated that it is possible to massively reduce the use of restraint. mersey care nhs trust is one such provider. it has cut restraint by 25% in two years. the whole of our training we are focused much less on physical techniques and we focus much more on prevention, and then when we do train people in physical techniques, we train them in ones that are kind of less aversive, if you will, and don't involve taking people to the forced by the department of health and social care says any kind of restraint should only be used as a last resort. and it says it is working to improve patient safety through better monitoring and training. it says the figures could be going up due to improvements in reporting. louise is on her way to visit her son who is now 19. he has not been restraint at all since he moved to his community placement in
6:28 am
february. she thinks it is because he is happy. he has learnt to drive a tractor. he grows his own fruit and veg. it is quite a big farm, which has pea ks, and veg. it is quite a big farm, which has peaks, goats, chickens, and he has learnt a sort of look after them, feed them. despite government pledges to reduce the numbers, more than 2500 people with learning disabilities and autism are still in hospital units. many of them are subject to restraint. lucy adams, bbc news. you can hear more in transforming care — is it working? on file on 4 tonight at 8pm. we have plenty coming your way this morning, we will reflect on the death of geoffrey hayes from rainbow, speaking with rodney, the voice of zippy as well, and theresa may will be here at 7:40am on the programme, and thomas bjorn, victorious ryder cup captain at 8:10am and we will find out what the celebrations are really like. do you

thought for 6:36 all in all that is not a very nice thoughtfor6:36 a.m.. all in all that is not a very nice thought for 6:36 a. m.. who all in all that is not a very nice thought for 6:36 a.m.. who knew that our stomachs could be letting us down? you wouldn't go into space, would you? no, buti down? you wouldn't go into space, would you? no, but i am really happy--- would you? no, but i am really happy... if you are one of those people who is excited at the prospect of travelling beyond the stars, it is important to consider the health impact. that is what i am considering. you were there a of eve ryo ne considering. you were there a of everyone else, ahead of the curve as ever. travelling beyond the stars, you make it sound so romantic. it will be like being on some kind of awful cross—channel ferry. will be like being on some kind of awful cross-channel ferry. we view two in charge, we can't do anything! not space. jose mourinho is doing it again. very often in his career he has taken the attention, and i think he does it in the past to protect
6:37 am
his players that important times. but what is he doing now, saying that some of his players don't care enough? manchester united and manchester city are back in champions league action tonight, but the focus remains on united manager jose mourinho, and his future at old trafford. the club has now endured their worst start to a season for 29 years, after losing at west ham at the weekend. tonight mourinho's men take on valencia. the manager is accusing some players of caring less than others. i think that some care more than others. do you want to say who? no. everybody in the club has a role to play, has a role to play. everybody has a role to play. the nutritionist has a role to play. i have a role to play, everybody has a role to play. when we win, we all win. when we lose, we all lose. and when we lose, the responsibility i think is the responsibility
6:38 am
of everyone. manchester city's kevin de bruyne has returned to training following his knee injury sooner than expected. the belgian midfielder injured his right knee six weeks ago, and is uklikely to play tonight. city are away to hoffenheim, looking to bounce back after losing at home to lyon. the last two seasons, when i am here, we qualified quite co mforta ble. here, we qualified quite comfortable. and maybe we will have to realise how complicated is the competition, to realise, to a step forward. and if we are not able to do that, it is because we are not good enough. bournemouth scored a late penalty to keep up their best start to a premier league season with a 2—1win over crystal palace. this game looked to be heading for a draw, but then mamadou sakho flung out an elbow in the box. that gave junior stanislas the chance to get the winner, and move bournemouth up to seventh in the table. we won in midweek, in the cup, i was
6:39 am
pleased with that. but today it was really important that we got back to the performance levels i know we are capable of. there was an intensity in our play today, a very good spirit in the group, and that showed in the end. you have had a great start to the season, have a new? we have, we can't hide the fact that we have, we can't hide the fact that we have had some big results, the later taken the game to another level. we have more work to do. great britain are hoping to have a women's football team competing at the toyko 0lympics in two years' time. fifa have accepted an application from all four home nations to nominate england to try to qualify. the agreement only applies to the women's team, and not the men's. team gb competed at the home olympics in 2012, but not in rio four years later. sometimes in football, the crowd is referred to as the 12th player on the pitch. of course, it also helps a great deal if the referee is part of the team. that is pretty much what happened in dagestan. in a match between keyes dd and manas, this penalty kick for manas was given when the score was 4—2. the ball ricocheted off the head of the ref and into the net. the goal stood.
6:40 am
the game ended in a 4—4 draw. classic finish. wow. his didn't count, obviously. slightly illegal, that one. i have to say, looking at the pictures, we had to check where that actually happened. it was in dagestan. was he all right? yes. rescue workers in indonesia say a lack of heavy lifting equipment is making it hard to reach people trapped in the rubble after friday's earthquake and tsunami. the united nations says almost 200,000 people could be in desperate need of help. we can speak now to husni, who is from the international federation of red cross and red crescent societies, and joins us from jakarta. thank you so much forjoining us. just give us a sense of, you think, the scale. how many people are affected by what has happened? yes, the... i
6:41 am
affected by what has happened? yes, the... lam affected by what has happened? yes, the... i amjust going affected by what has happened? yes, the... i am just going to interrupt you, because we did check the line before we talked to you, but we can't hear you very well. i will just asked the question again and see if we can make this work. give us an idea of the scale of what has happened. the management in indonesia confirmed that the death toll had reached almost 1000 as of today, with more than 50,000 people displaced right now, with massive disruption across palu and other areas. tell us about the rescue operation. what did they need most and how many people are in need of ca re and how many people are in need of care and food ? and how many people are in need of care and food? the government has
6:42 am
begun search and rescue, and a report from the government states that more than 152 people are currently trapped under the rubble. the indonesian red cross are currently helping with rescuing these people. search and rescue is really a main priority, while providing support to affected populations. volunteers and staff from the red cross were travelling through and they found a number of stu d e nts through and they found a number of students who were camping, in one village. i am afraid we can't hear you terribly well, but thank you for bringing us that latest update. and just to let you know, the united nations have warned that more than
6:43 am
190,000 people in indonesia urgently need help after that tsunami and earthquake. there is a lack of heavy lifting equipment and they are looking for more qualified staff to search for survivors. they have been reports of looting shops for food, water and fuel, and mass burials taking place as well. it is a desperate situation, and we will be speaking to somebody from the red cross a bit later on. we will have a look at the weather right now. let's take a look at the weather now, and matt is out on an east london rooftop for us this morning. that's a spectacular view of london there, matt. good morning, and empty deckchairs on top of the factoryjust good morning, and empty deckchairs on top of the factory just above good morning, and empty deckchairs on top of the factoryjust above 0ld street, and those deckchairs may be empty at the moment, but they certainly have a view once the sun is out. what a cracking view from here, right across the city. you can also see the shard out there as
6:44 am
well, bright colours on the top and when the sun shines out later it will be splendid to be here. you will be splendid to be here. you will notice from those deckchairs, they are fluttering away a little bit in the breeze today, and that is the key to the weather forecast. particularly in northern scotland, where winds are touching gale force at times. temperatures up a little bit on yesterday's values. they are bringing cloud at the moment, the low pressure systems, from northern ireland through the north and west of wales, parts of the midlands towards the south—east. in the next hour or two we could see patchy, light rain and drizzle and across parts of northern ireland and north and west wales we could see drizzle on and off throughout the day. either side of its dry weather. lots of cloud to the south will break up at times to allow some sunshine, however north—eastern parts of england and a good part of scotland will have a predominantly dry day. more in the way of sunshine here, but here we will see the strongest of the winds. the lowest of the
6:45 am
temperatures around ten to 15 degrees compared to further south, where we could see 20 celsius in the south—east corner into the night, lots of cloud to begin with. that will push its way northwards across northern ireland and in the western scotla nd northern ireland and in the western scotland as we go into the morning. clearer skies for longest across eastern scotland and north—east england. here we will see temperatures drop the furthest, into single figures to start wednesday morning. elsewhere a mild start, thanks to these clouds. there should be more in the way of cloud breaks tomorrow across some parts of central and southern england and wales to a better chance of some sunshine. scotland and northern ireland a lot more cloud around and that cloud will bring some further outbreaks of rain at times. most will be dry tomorrow and temperatures in scotland and northern ireland up a little bit on the day, southern areas down a touch. still not bad for the time of year. on thursday after a mild night the breeze picking up again. lighter winds compared with today, slightly
6:46 am
breezy compared with thursday, outbreaks of rain pushing across scotla nd outbreaks of rain pushing across scotland and northern ireland through the day. showers in the northern england and north wales. much of england and wales having a dry day on thursday and increasing amounts of sunshine. temperatures back on the up to around 20 celsius. not a bad few days to come. a little bit of rain here and there, a lot of dry weather and temperatures roughly where they should be for the time of year. certainly this morning it is a little bit easy on top of the building here. back to you both. little bit easy on top of the building here. back to you bothm does look a little bit chilly, thank you very much. looks lovely as the sun is coming up. lots of business going on in the city of london. how do you talk to your kids about money? research out this morning from hsbc suggests that there are differing levels of financial confidence between boys and girls. steph's got more on this. we talk a lot about financial education. it is something i am obsessed about, making sure kids know how to deal with money to help
6:47 am
them in future. good morning, everyone. yes, this is something we've talked about on breakfast before — financial education has been on the national curriculum for secondary schools since 2014, but it's not compulsory for primary schools yet. the banking giant hsbc has done some research on this and found that nearly a third of parents don't talk about money in front of their kids. so what's the best way to approach this with kids? we asked some families in manchester. we will pay for clothes, but if you are happy to pay for your own clothes, sometimes we have to remind her that we will pay for that, whereas we are now going to buy a computer game. yes. which was promised for good behaviour, so... rewards and things like that. ev said she found something she wanted to buy, but i suggested that she would use some of her savings, but she said no, because i saved my savings —— evie. sol she said no, because i saved my savings —— evie. so i suggested that maybe when she is treated by grandparents, that she has half of it to save and half of it to spend.
6:48 am
i had to pay for all of my own stuff from a teenager, i had to have a job to pay for anything that i wanted above and beyond the basics, so... i think we will do the same with these. the two kids have their own money box, so any change they have they earned for doing favours and chores, they put it in the money box and declan has emptied his today to buy his mum a birthday present because it is a birthday today. 0h, what a lovely lad he is. laverne antrobus, child psychologist who you'll probably recognise from the secret life of 4 and 5 years olds on channel 4. good morning and thank you for joining us, laverne. you spend a lot of time looking at kids, analysing how they are, so what's the best age to start talking about money? this is really important area because research has found that children as young as five are beginning to understand the ideas about money, they understand exchange, you know,
6:49 am
you give your money and you might get something back, but then it is gone so what hsbc are trying to put out there is that it's really important to start talking to children early on because they are picking up these messages anyway, learning about the value of money but also a think as some of the people you interviewed have said, learning about saving as well which of course is essential. and when you say early on i use saying at four or five degrees when you should start introducing it? -- four or five is when. they have been observing their pa rents over when. they have been observing their parents over the last few years, seeing what happens when they go to the cashpoint, when they buy things, so at five we have realised they know something about the exchange, and by the time they get to seven, they understand the value of money, it has really kicked on a bit. so they understand wanting something, waiting, planning to make that purchase, you know, the financial skills adults have, in some ways. so, then, do you think, it is what
6:50 am
they see from their parents, that is how they learn about how to deal with it, then? definitely, i think that, you know, what i want parents to think about is, what sort of financial conversations their children overhear in the house. and how they talk about how they make a family purchase. you know, how they themselves are thinking about putting money aside so that there is a bit for treats later. because so much money is spent on the ordinary things, it is nice for children to hear about the way in which their pa rents hear about the way in which their parents put some financial sort of planning and intelligence into their own lives. so what do you think about pocket money?” own lives. so what do you think about pocket money? i think pocket money is essential because it then sta rts money is essential because it then starts to really make it clear that there is a value placed on money, that money doesn'tjust grow on trees, you have to earn it. and watch children then begin to realise about it is that they have some potency in how they come to obtain money, and of course then if you have heard it it is always sweeter when you get to pay for something
6:51 am
yourself, just as people have said in your interviews. some parents might struggle to actually give their kids pocket money because they are struggling with money themselves, so does it matter how much it is? identikit matters. i think it is about being able to be clear about this exchange —— i don't think it matters. and making kids feel they have value placed on them. because that is what is key, it is about children realising and really helping them with their financial intelligence, to know that there is value attached to money and they have the power to earn it. and i think that another way in which we have really tried to push this on is to make sure that there is a real understanding for boys and girls, you know, that girls and boys both feel sort of financially equipped to be able to make purchases and to have some financial acumen in the future. yes, of course, it is absolutely vital, thank you very much for your time this morning, laverne, a child psychologist. with
6:52 am
some really good advice. thank you. when the bbc journalist wynford vaughan thomas joined the raf on an air raid over berlin in 1943, he had with him just a voice recorder to document what he witnessed. now, 75 years later, virtual reality has added new depth to his words from that night with a visual interpretation of his famous report. robert hall reports. this is the story of lancaster f freddie. a famous wartime broadcast and a blend of history and technology which can take all of us into the dangerous skies above germany. among those preparing for take off on the evening of september 3, 1943, were two civilians. bbc correspondent wynford vaughan thomas and his engineer reg pidsley, joined f freddie's crew to record their bombing mission over berlin. radio: is it ok now? yes, cutting.
6:53 am
this is the disk recording equipment that would have been used of bbc type c. the cutter head actually cut a groove into that disk, recording the sound. reg pidsley, the recording engineer, had to keep the blank disks inside his flying jacket to make sure they were warm enough to cut. they've left that other bomber and they're moving now slowly... i was just aware of this fantastic piece of recording that wynford vaughan thomas had done in 1943 and having worked with vr, i could see it was potentially a really, really good fit. they seem to splay out at first like the tentacles of an octopus, waiting to catch you. because the audio is an actual recording of what happened, itjust makes the cg! undeniably real. most cgi experiences is someone's imagination trying to recreate something. ok when you are. f freddie's bomb aimer was bill bray.
6:54 am
he never told his granddaughter about his wartime service. we're going to take you on a virtual time machine ride back to 1943. hello, skipper. will you turn on to 081. right, 081, navigator. 0k. wow. what did you think? i thought it was incredible, it was amazing. it's just surreal listening, because we've heard the audio before so many times but to hear the audio alongside everything they would have experienced that evening was emotional and incredible. there it goes, our first sight of england, just a little light from a beacon, flashing up to us from the darkness. i've known this story all my life, of father's being in the lancaster but to be there and to see it and to experience that, and to just see how brave all those young, young men were.
6:55 am
robert hall, bbc news. so it is really able to experience a little bit of what it is like. berlin blitz is available to watch on selected dates at the imperial war museum. and steph was talking about finance. yes. we have a really interesting guest, sarah jane blakemore. teenage brains. the secret life of the teenage brain, with a fascinating insight into what is going on, so if you are the parents of teenage children, i think you might be interested. i am. and it seems there isa interested. i am. and it seems there is a lot going on, so it is absolutely fascinating. you're watching breakfast from bbc news. still to come this morning: as we say goodbye to geoffrey from rainbow, we'll hear
6:56 am
from his best friend zippy, actor ronnie ledrew pays tribute after 8:30am. thomas bjorn at 8:10am and theresa may is with us at 7:40am this morning. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london news. middle—class drug users will be targeted as part of a crackdown on the causes of violent crime. the home secretary is due to announce a series of meaures to tackle the problem during his tory party conference speech later. affluent drug users have been linked to the rise in gang violence in london. sajid javid will also launch a consultation into whether schools, social services and housing departments should have a legal obligation to help tackle the cause of violence. it's something that has been welcomed by one youth project in south london. i think this is well overdue. i think the schools and professionals in the schools the schools require help.
6:57 am
we've spoken to parents in the community. they are screaming out for this sort of service, for the support, for the professional, holistic package in the community. people across the capital are being offered the opportunity to plant 50,000 trees in parks, schools, private gardens and housing estates in london. it's part of the mayor's drive to make the capital greener and turn it into a so—called national park city. individuals and community groups can bid for the trees through city hall, ahead of a mass, london—wide planting weekend in december. meanwhile, train companies are preparing to bring in autumn timetables, which are adapted to account for fallen leaves on tracks. many passengers will have to arrive at stations earlier and face longer journeys, as extra time is allowed to pass slippery sections of track. chiltern, south western and southeastern services will be affected by the changes, which stay in place til december. let's take a look at the travel situation now. there's a good service on the tubes this morning.
6:58 am
there on the tubes this morning. are minor delays on the overground there are minor delays on the overground between there are minor delays on the overg round between liverpool street and cheshunt. if we turn to the roads, tower hill is closed coming in west dulwich: croxted road is closed at the south circular following a collision. finally in buckhurst hill: victoria road is closed outside the tube station because of a gas leak. now, the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it is a mild start out there this morning. many places starting the day in double figures celsius. so we have lost the chill from yesterday. it is, however, mostly cloudy and feeling a little bit humid. now, the cloud this morning thick enough to produce the odd spot of rain and drizzle. it won't last long. it will clear away. it remains mostly cloudy. a fresh westerly breeze. the cloud thinning this afternoon. one or two sunny spells. if the sun comes out it will feel rather warm. temperatures getting up to 20 celsius, so much warmer than yesterday. overnight tonight, we're hanging
6:59 am
on to the cloud and also it remains reasonably mild. spit and spots of light rain and drizzle as well. the minimum temperature is not especially low, around 12 celsius in central london, a little bit cooler out towards the suburbs. as we head into wednesday it is still feeling quite mild, quite humid, temperatures up to 19. breaks in the cloud through the afternoon with some sunshine. still warm through friday and then a dip in temperatures and turning unsettled on saturday. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. as well as on our facebook page. bye for now. good morning. welcome to breakfast, with louise minchin and dan walker. our headlines today: growing anger among survivors of indonesia's earthquake and tsunami, as they face a fifth day with no water, no power, and little sign of help. taking back control after brexit. theresa may promises low—skill immigration will fall, and says there will be no special treatment for eu citizens. thousands of passengers stranded.
7:00 am
budget airline primera collapses. i'm looking at what it means for the customers stuck abroad or left out of pocket. jose mourinho speaks his mind once again. this time, he says some of his players dont care enough, as manchester united prepare to play in the champions league tonight. good morning, and in weather, temperatures may be up a little bit today compared with yesterday, but the breeze is as well. the best of the breeze is as well. the best of the sunshine in parts of scotland and north—east england. i will have the details right here on breakfast. it is tuesday 2 october. our top story: there is growing anger over indonesia's response to friday's devastating earthquake and tsunami. survivors are facing a fifth day without water or power. the united nations says up to 200,000 people are in desperate need of aid, but rescue workers are still struggling to reach them. the uk government is sending £2 million to help with the relief effort. jenny kumah reports.
7:01 am
homes and lives destroyed in palu. the survivors are facing their fifth day without power and water. around 48,000 people have nowhere to live. but, amid the despair, there is hope. after days under the rubble, rescuers managed to release this man from his concrete tomb. the authorities have confirmed there was a fault with the tsunami detection system. a warning was sent out, but it appears to have underestimated the scale of the waves, and many didn't get the alerts because of power cuts. when the flooding hit, this mother picked up her two children and ran. translation: we were running for our lives, the waves chasing us. it's like a bad dream. when is help going to arrive? when will the government pay attention to us? rescuers face a massive task, especially in trying
7:02 am
to reach remote areas. foreign aid is on its way. in addition to the work that we do through our partners on the ground, the un and the red cross, we've also made some additional funding available to help with immediate need, and following a request from the indonesian government, we have deployed a team of disaster response experts. the military has put on flights to help with the evacuation of thousands desperate to flee the disaster zone. others have joined limited commercial flights out of the small, damaged airport in palu. the bbc‘s rebecca henschke is in palu, one of the worst—affected areas. earlier, she gave us an update on the situation there. where i am now is a makeshift refugee camp set up near the local
7:03 am
town hall. people who have been able town hall. people who have been able to make it here, they have all lost their homes either in the earthquake was swept away in the tsunami. here, they are getting now some basic supplies. two meals a day of rice and eight. we are seeing now more aid trickling in. the military increasing its personnel here, as well as the central government sending in supplies. but this is now the fifth day palu has been without power, and the city is running out of petrol and basic supplies. although people here have been incredibly patient and calm, in very hot weather, under these plastic tents, there has been losing in the city a short while ago. clashes between the police there, with them firing warning shots into the crowd, to calm the situation down. desperate people here. theresa may has been expanding on her pledge to take back control of britain's borders after the uk leaves the european union.
7:04 am
the prime minister has confirmed there will be no preferential treatment for eu citizens, and that fewer low—skilled workers will come to britain post—brexit. our correspondent iain watson is at the conservative party conference in birmingham for us this morning. is there anything new in this announcement? well, most of it came out of the cabinet discussions last week, when cabinet discussions last week, when cabinet ministers were giving a report by immigration advisory committee which said we should concentrate on high skilled migration to this country, not low skilled, cup of those kinds of routes. so what the prime minister is doing is setting out the cabinet's position. politically what is important to her at this conference is to say that free movement will end after brexit, so to say that she is delivering one of the pledges from the referendum. for her that is hugely important. in terms of the detail, most of that was actually agreed last week so effectively we will have immigration based on skills rather than
7:05 am
nationality. no preferential treatment for the eu, although a similar system may be offered to other parts of the world if we get trade deals. secondly we should also ta ke trade deals. secondly we should also take a look at some of the small print of this announcement. so, for example, although the emphasis is on high skills, there will be temporary exemptions for those parts of the economy struggling because of low skilled migration for some time. so expect a call from the conference floor for british businesses to do more to train british workers. i think the prime minister is very keen to make this major policy announcement today because she will be getting a little bit of competition around lunchtime, when the former foreign secretary, who has already been very critical of her approach to brexit, he will come to town and he will be speaking at a
7:06 am
fringe meeting with a huge capacity, around 700 people listening to boris johnson, and he will not confine his comments to brexit. he will also effectively set out an alternative ma nifesto, effectively set out an alternative manifesto, talking about tax cuts, the need to build more homes, and why the conservative party should be trying to ape jeremy why the conservative party should be trying to apejeremy corbyn. why the conservative party should be trying to ape jeremy corbyn. and we will have more details around 7:40am on bbc breakfast. an extra £240 million of emergency funding will be spent on the social care system to ease pressure on the nhs this winter. health secretary matt hancock will tell the conservative party conference he hopes the money will free up hospital beds by helping older people get home more quickly when they are medically ready to leave. the local government association welcomed the extra money, but said short—term funding solutions weren't the answer. passengers have been left stranded after budget airline primera collapsed, cancelling all scheduled flights. the icelandic—owned airline ceased all operations at midnight, with many passengers unsure of alternative travel options. steph has more information. asi as i said, we don't know much about them, but they were a relatively big player because they were so low cost. yes, especially big player
7:07 am
because they were a firm running for around 14 years and were mainly known for bringing scandinavians down south to go on lots of holidays around spain and parts of europe, so big on the scandinavian side of things but they started to grow here when they started to offer long haul flights on the cheap. earlier this year you could fly from the uk to the us for as little as £149. in some cases, when they had a special offer on, for less than 100 quid to get you to the us. you can imagine how attractive that was the people, we can get to america for 100 quid. so lots of people bought these tickets, and now the airline, unsurprisingly, because of how quickly it expanded, has struggled to be able to actually provide these services and actually have the finance they need to carry on running the airline. so they ceased trading last night at midnight, which means there are a lot of people stranded. so our estimates are looking at between 2500 to 5000
7:08 am
people currently stuck on the wrong side of the atlantic, so people will now be currently wondering how they will get back to the uk. lots of viewers have contacted us saying they are in other parts of europe, in malaga and other kinds of places, wondering how they will get back. on top of that you have people who are due to fly with them who now do not have the flights to head off on their holidays, as well, from the uk. the advice is don't go to the airport if they are due to fly with them, because they are not running them, because they are not running the service. the reason this has happened is not a shock. in august we heard that they were stopping the flights they were going to do from birmingham, and this is a company where they were saying it is because they were delayed getting some aircraft from airbus, so they have had to charter planes at a really expensive cost. yet they have not charged much for the tickets to travel on them, so it is the case of the finance not working, and that is not a surprise at this time of year.
7:09 am
it was this time last year when molik went bust. some are they are cash rich, they have a lot of money —— monarch. suddenly they are at a crunch point where they can't afford to pay their staff or pay for fuel for the flights. that is why it is happening now. it is worrying for people out there who are actually stuck, because the compensation for it is really tricky. if you booked it is really tricky. if you booked it on it is really tricky. if you booked itona it is really tricky. if you booked it on a credit card, there are ways around that, but on the whole it looks as if you will have to buy a new flight. and try and get home. mike ashley's firm has sacked the senior management at house of fraser, just weeks after it bought the department store chain. sports direct paid £90 million for the uk's 58 branches back in august. the company said the dismissals followed calls for an investigation into the circumstances of the retailer's collapse. a senior italian scientist who said the field of physics was invented and built by men has been suspended from working with the european nuclear research centre cern. professor alessandro strumia made
7:10 am
the remarks during a presentation to a group of mainly female physicists in geneva, claiming the industry now looked more favourably on women than men. cern has said his presentation was unacceptable, while professor strumia has stood by his remarks, which he says are backed up by simple research. tributes have been paid to the french singer and songwriter charles aznavour, who has died at the age of 94, after a career spanning more than eight decades. he was known as france's answer to frank sinatra, sold more than 180 million records worldwide, and was described has having a certainje ne sais quois, even if his talent wasn't immediately recognised by critics. here he is talking to charlie and naga about overcoming negativity to become a global superstar. the critics were terrible. they find my songs
7:11 am
bizarre, as they say. they said i didn't have the physique to be a star. they said my voice was terrible, too. everything is wrong. but i didn't listen to them. isaid, well, i know i'm going to make it. you know, that's the only way — the head against the wall. the french singer and songwriter charles aznavour, who has died at the age of 94, he is only five foot two, a very diminutive individual, but millions of fa ns diminutive individual, but millions of fans around the world and sold millions of records as well. back now to our main story, and the united nations says almost 200,000 people in indonesia could be in desperate need of help after friday's earthquake and tsunami. the conditions there are making to hard to reach remote communities and get much—needed aid to them. joining us now is david foster from the british red cross emergency team.
7:12 am
good morning to you. thank you very much. so what is priority number one at the moment? it is trying to ove rco m e at the moment? it is trying to overcome a lot of these issues with infrastructure and try and get to the hardest to reach communities as quickly as we can. as we have heard, there are roads which had literally liquefied as part of the earthquake in the following tsunami, and ridges have collapsed, hospital infrastructure is damaged, electricity is still off, communications infrastructure is still down, and so it is hard to get a very clear picture of the need. as you have heard, as red cross search and rescue teams have started to arrive in some of those areas around palu and donggala, we are now aware that about 200,000 people are in immediate need of assistance, and
7:13 am
more displaced, with shelter destroyed or irreparably damaged. and we are looking at some of these pictures, and this wave swept everything before it, didn't it? yes, so trying to respond to that is paramount now. we have people who don't have access to food, to clean water, to really basic medical supplies, and who are sleeping out in the open air, and who require support with emergency shelter, whether that is getting people into the town hall in palu, as you thought early on, or providing shelter kits so people can start to rebuild and get a roof over their head, and looking at the medium term for things which will be real issues with hygiene and the spread of disease, and things that start to become a really clear and present danger. it is getting that vallance, was also getting some really detailed needs assessment done, so we can find out not only what people need, and when, but the most vulnerable people. so elderly
7:14 am
people, children, pregnant women, who are extremely vulnerable at times like this. that is why the british red cross has opened an appeal to support the indonesian red cross and the wider red cross. looking at these pictures, you can see people desperate for food, shelter, blankets and help. at the same time you have just got devastation across the country, where you look at... we can see the picture behind you here if we come back to the studio, and how do you start to clean sounding like that up, and who is in charge of organising that on the ground? and that sometimes be part of the frustration? it just has to itjust has to be a major chord —— co—ordination effort and the first thing is search and rescue. we have search and rescue teams on the ground. one of the benefits, speaking from the experience of the red cross, is as a large network we have teams that exist in communities, branches that are already there, we will do that as well, but it means the search and
7:15 am
rescue teams, emergency medical teams, they have quick access and also with the local knowledge they can navigate some of this real devastation, whether it is using boats to get around the coast, getting as far as you can on the road, using motorbikes, orwalking through knee deep mud, as we saw earlier on, to get to communities. so the search and rescue won't end and that will hopefully be finding more people alive, but it won't end until we find everyone regardless of their situation. we saw someone today he was found and rescued. these are vulnerable communities a nyway these are vulnerable communities anyway and we understand that the tsunami warnings were not working for several different reasons. and it is important, a lot of those systems were put in place after the 2004 tsunami and so it is important that you keep on top of it and maintain it. it is clear that some people received a tsunami warning
7:16 am
and people didn't and the reasons will come out at a later date. at the moment we have to work with the government and aid agencies to make sure that the people who need help haveit sure that the people who need help have it as quickly as possible. so you are appealing and we know that £2 million in support will also be made available to help, and that will help immediately? yes, and agencies like ourselves, the british red cross has opened an appeal to sort the red cross and as always the british public are extremely generous. if you look at the major disasters over the last few years, the hurricane is in the caribbean, the hurricane is in the caribbean, the ongoing crises, syria, yemen, the ongoing crises, syria, yemen, the british public are huge contributors. absolutely. thank you very much. the red cross. the red cross! sorry. you have done a huge job. thank you. i really appreciate you coming in to talk to us as well. let's take a look at the weather now, and matt is out on an east london rooftop for us this morning. it isa
7:17 am
it is a beautiful view this morning, but it is windy. good morning, yes. it certainly is. you can see the deck chairs flapping in the breeze. showing us a fantastic view in the summer showing us a fantastic view in the summer but of course we are well and truly into the autumn months and now and it is a little bit breezy and on the cool side, but it is certainly fording us a great view across the city of london, we have the stock exchange down there, the bank of england as well, mixed in the brand—new skyscrapers, the majesty of the 17th—century st paul's cathedral as well, and it is a little bit grey admittedly in london overhead, more cloud for england, wales and northern ireland with patchy rain or drizzle but overall it isa patchy rain or drizzle but overall it is a milder day competitive yesterday but a little bit on the breezy site. the stronger store winds will be further north, touching gale force at times in northern scotland, closer to the pressure system pushing in, and weather fronts pushing pressure system pushing in, and weatherfronts pushing in with
7:18 am
pressure system pushing in, and weather fronts pushing in with a brace of rain into northern ireland, north—west england, wales, and the south—east this morning, spots of rain or drizzle from that and that will move southwards, break up a little bit. still holding on with some rain and drizzle across parts of wales and northern ireland today but most of you will get away with predominantly dry weather. the best sunshine in north—east england and scotland, some showers in northern scotland, some showers in northern scotland, the windiest weather here, keeping back temperature a little bit at around ten to 15 degrees. at further south even though we have more cloud and spots of rain or drizzle it will feel more mild than yesterday with temperatures for one or two yesterday with temperatures for one ortwo in yesterday with temperatures for one or two in the south—east up to around 20. in tonight the cloud sta rts around 20. in tonight the cloud starts to work its way further north once again. so it will cloud over across western scotland after a fine evening and we will start to see some patchy rain or drizzle moving in here. most will have temperatures in double figures but where the skies are clearest for longest, north—east england and scotland, temperatures around four or five celsius to start tomorrow morning.
7:19 am
brightness for north—east england and scotland to begin with, overall it isa and scotland to begin with, overall it is a cloudy day. you will notice uk wide, not as strong a breeze, so even though temperatures are down, up even though temperatures are down, upa bit even though temperatures are down, up a bit in the north, it will feel milder given the wind. the best of the dry and bright weather across parts of england and wales with more sunshine breaking through at times and we will see more sunshine still for england and wales on thursday after a cloudy start. sunshine developing quite widely, showers for northern wales, but for scotland and northern ireland it is a case of get your umbrella because of the wet weather spreading across for all on thursday but with some sunshine following in its wake and by thursday temperatures not far off what we have at the moment, really, average for the time of year, so most average for the time of year, so m ost pla ces average for the time of year, so most places around the mid—to—high teens, one or two spots on thursday in the south—east could get to around 20 degrees, so that is how your weather is looking. back now to dan and louise. thank you very much, thank you. and let's have a look at
7:20 am
some of the front pages for you this morning from the papers. the front page of the mirror claims the tories are in meltdown, with a picture of borisjohnson running through a field of wheat. we actually don't think it is wheat. which some see as mocking theresa may. we will speak to her in about ten minutes. the telegraph runs the same picture, but it's main story is about a government promise that people who see their gp with possible signs of cancer will get a diagnosis within three weeks. and the front of the mail has a story about "post—brexit" migration, which claims far fewer low—skilled workers will be allowed in from europe. and a picture of esther mcvey, oh, she is gone, who she said her pa rents she is gone, who she said her parents gave her to barnardos when she was young and then took about two years later. and trending on twitter this morning is reaction to a programme on bbc one last night called "drowning in plastic", lots of you might have watched it. which laid out the shocking extent of plastic pollution in our seas. lots of people have taken to twitter
7:21 am
to talk about it. and one thing that has been doing the rounds on the back of the programme is nine ways to reduce ocean plastic. go on, then, how many can you give us, three? want is to boycott single use plastics, things like reusable revolution, shop local and try to avoid plastic packaging, by fewer high—quality items to try to reduce your packaging, minimise your bathroom and cleaning products. your packaging, minimise your bathroom and cleaning productslj bathroom and cleaning products.” thought you were going to do three. ijust went for thought you were going to do three. i just went for it. and thought you were going to do three. ijust went for it. and consider sharing or hiring instead of owning. that is interesting. i am proud of eve ryo ne that is interesting. i am proud of everyone in the studio who has been able to hold on to your christmas hasn't. imagine how many plastic bottles. . . hasn't. imagine how many plastic bottles... i normally drink two or three each day and i know it is a tiny thing and it was inspired by you on the back of david attenborough. still got it.” thought i had lost it after a week. and you dribble it all over my leg as well. and there is also very
7:22 am
quickly and investigation into dogs and how intelligent they are. a p pa re ntly and how intelligent they are. apparently they are not exceptionally intelligent chimp had with other animals and they found that wolves and pigeons performed better at some tasks, and sheep have a similar ability to recognise faces. we love dogs, don't we. yeah. a growing number of patients with learning disabilities are being physically restrained in hospital units, according to new figures obtained bbc radio 4's file on 4 programme. there's been a 50% increase in the past two years in england and a former social care minister who introduced guidelines to reduce the use of restraint says it's shameful. our correspondent lucy adams has this report. it broke my heart, to be honest with you. i still find it difficult to deal with now. louise's son austin spent more than a 10th of his life in hospital units. once he was detained, she couldn't get him back out. he didn't break the law, but he has autism and learning disabilities. in the unit, she says he was often restrained. it's various levels of restraint.
7:23 am
you can have restraint which is physically hands—on. that may involve several people sitting austin on a bed and holding him down. higher levels could be a prone restraint, where you are actually placed fully down. and that may involve several people having to do that to you. guidelines calling for a reduction in the use of restraints on people with autism and learning disabilities were published by the uk government in 2014, but an investigation by the bbc has found that the use of restraint has actually increased. in 2016, it was used in hospital inpatient units on such people 15,000 times. in 2017, that went up to 22,000 times. and prone restraint, which the guidelines said should no longer be used, has also increased. last year it was used 3000 times. norman lamb was the social care minister when the guidelines were introduced.
7:24 am
these figures are really shocking and completely unacceptable. we issued guidance back in 2014, making clear that restraint should be absolutely the last resort. many providers have demonstrated that it is possible to massively reduce the use of restraint. mersey care nhs trust is one such provider. it has cut restraint by 25% in two years. the whole of our training we are focused much less on physical techniques and we focus much more on prevention, and then when we do train people in physical techniques, we train them in ones that are kind of less aversive, if you will, and don't involve taking people to the floor. the department of health and social care says any kind of restraint should only be used as a last resort. and says it is working to improve patient safety through better monitoring and training.
7:25 am
it says the figures could be going up due to improvements in reporting. louise is on her way to visit her son, who is now 19. he has not been restraint at all since he moved to his community placement in february. she thinks that's because he is happy. he's learnt to drive a tractor. he grows his own fruit and veg. it's quite a big farm, which has pigs, goats, chickens, and he has learnt a sort of look after them, feed them. but despite government pledges to reduce the numbers, more than 2500 people with learning disabilities and autism are still in hospital units. many of them are subject to restraint. lucy adams, bbc news. you can hear more from the radio 4 programme transforming care, is it working, on file on four tonight at 8pm. in the next 45 minutes we will speak
7:26 am
with thomas bjorn at 8:10am, and then the prime minister in around ten minutes, joining us from the tory party conference, so plenty to discuss. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london news. middle—class drug users will be targeted as part of a crackdown on the causes of violent crime. the home secretary is due to announce a series of meaures to tackle the problem during his tory party conference speech later. affluent drug users have been linked to the rise in gang violence in london. sajid javid will also launch a consultation into whether schools, social services and housing departments should have a legal obligation to help tackle the cause of violence. it's something that's been welcomed by one youth project in south london. i think this is well overdue. i think the schools and professionals in the schools require help. we've spoken to parents in the community. they are screaming out for this sort of service, for the support, for the professional, holistic package in the community. people across the capital
7:27 am
are being offered the opportunity to plant 50,000 trees in parks, schools, private gardens and housing estates in london. it's part of the mayor's drive to make the capital greener and turn it into a so—called "national park city." individuals and community groups can bid for the trees through city hall, ahead of a mass, london—wide planting weekend in december. meanwhile, train companies are preparing to bring in autumn timetables, which are adapted to account for fallen leaves on tracks. many passengers will have to arrive at stations earlier and face longer journeys, as extra time is allowed to pass slippery sections of track. chiltern, south western and southeastern services will be affected by the changes, which stay in place til december. let's take a look at the travel situation now. there's a good service on the tubes this morning but there are minor delays on the overground between liverpool street and cheshunt. if we turn to the roads, it's busier than usual
7:28 am
on the highway coming in to town. the a406 is slower southbound following a collision. in west dulwich: croxted road is closed at the south circular following a collision. now the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it's a mild start out there this morning. many places starting the day in double figures celsius. so we've lost the chill from yesterday. it is, however, mostly cloudy and feeling a little bit humid. now, the cloud this morning thick enough to produce the odd spot of light rain and drizzle. it won't last long. it will clear away. it remains mostly cloudy. a fresh westerly breeze. the cloud thinning perhaps a little this afternoon. one or two sunny spells. if the sun comes out it will feel rather warm. temperatures getting up to 20 celsius, so much warmer than yesterday. overnight tonight, we're hanging on to the cloud and also it remains reasonably mild. spits and spots of light rain and drizzle overnight as well. the minimum temperature not especially low,
7:29 am
again, around 12 celsius in central london, a little bit cooler out towards the suburbs. as we head into wednesday, it is still feeling quite mild, quite humid, temperatures getting up to 19. quite a bit of cloud around, but some breaks in the cloud through the afternoon with some sunshine. still warm through friday and then a dip in temperatures and turning unsettled on saturday. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london in half an hour. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast, with louise minchin and dan walker. here is a summary of this morning's main stories from bbc news: there is growing anger over indonesia's response to friday's devastating earthquake and tsunami. survivors are facing a fifth day without water or power. the united nations says up to 200,000 people are in desperate need of aid, but rescue workers are still struggling to reach them. the uk government is sending £2 million to help with the relief effort. thousands of people have been
7:30 am
sending clothes and toiletries to help those affected. our correspondent nick beake was there as supplies came in. well, this place is the biggest of indications of the level of support indonesians are offering to the victims of this disaster. all of this aid was donated just today, would you believe it. they've got toiletries here, snacks. they're sorting out the clothes into different sections for men, women and children, and they have been working through the night here. i asked one man, why are you doing this? he said, they are our brothers and sisters. we need to do all we can to help them. now, this is not high—tech medical equipment, but it will be extremely well received by those in the greatest need. the big problem, of course, is getting it to them. there is a concern as well
7:31 am
that it is too little, too late, and crucially, it is not the sort of machinery needed to free people from the rubble. so the fear is that many people who may have survived the initial earthquake and then the tsunami may well have perished while they have been waiting for aid to arrive. theresa may has been expanding on her pledge to take back control of britain's borders after the uk leaves the european union. the prime minister has confirmed the government will create a new single immigration system, with no preferential treatment for eu citizens, and that fewer low—skilled workers will come to britain post—brexit. it comes as former foreign secretary borisjohnson prepares to set out his vision for the party's future at the party conference in birmingham today. a group of mothers are going to the high court to challenge surrey county council's proposed cut to its special needs and disability budget. the women all have disabled children, and theirjudicial review will contend that they should have been consulted on the planned £21 million cuts. surrey county council says its focus is to make sure children get
7:32 am
the support they need. mike ashley's firm has sacked the senior management at house of fraser, just weeks after it bought the department store chain. sports direct paid £90 million for the uk's 58 branches back in august. the company said the dismissals followed calls for an investigation into the circumstances of the retailer's collapse. protesters have clashed with police in barcelona, as thousands took to the streets to mark the one—year anniversary of the contested referendum on independence. demonstrators obstructed major roads in barcelona, before police used tear gas to break up a demonstration. catalonia held the vote last year and its separatist government declared independence. but spain's constitutional court deemed the referendum illegal, and madrid imposed direct rule. those are some of the main stories around this morning. tom hanks, beyonce and ed sheeran have all done it, but how's this for a famous photo—bomb? sir paul mccartney came together with this canadian couple taking
7:33 am
pictures for their wedding. the former beatle was in winnipeg for a concert when he passed the couple while on a bike ride. he clearly stopped for a quick chat. tremendous stetson, as well, from the groom. you know if you have a wedding album made, where would you put the paul mccartney picture?” would put him on the front page. would you? would put him on the front page. would you ? it would put him on the front page. would you? it is not about him, is it? this fellow turned up as well.” got married so long ago we didn't have things like that. no cameras? coming up on the programme: we will have that interview with the prime minister. but in the meantime... who was the football manager who was always doing photo bombs? was it sam alla rdyce ? doing photo bombs? was it sam allardyce? someone living at the
7:34 am
golf club? i can't remember if it was big sam or not. it wasn't jose mourinho. and if it was, would he be smiling? iam sure and if it was, would he be smiling? i am sure he would. he gave a press conference yesterday and was pushed on the situation, what is happening with the players, whether they are backing him. he said quite openly that he feels some of the players are not trying hard enough. but the focus remains onjose mourinho and his future at old trafford. the club has now endured their worst start to a season for 29 years, after losing at west ham at the weekend. tonight mourinho's men take on valencia. the manager is accusing some players of caring less than others. i think that some care more than others. do you want to say who? no, everybody in the club has a role to play — has a role to play. everybody has a role to play. the nutritionist has a role to play. i have a role to play, everybody has a role to play.
7:35 am
when we win, we all win. when we lose, we all lose. and when we lose, the responsibility i think is the responsibility of everyone. manchester city's kevin de bruyne has returned to training following his knee injury sooner than expected. the belgian midfielder injured his right knee six weeks ago and is uklikely to play tonight. city are away to hoffenheim, looking to bounce back after losing at home to lyon. the last two seasons, when i'm here, we qualified quite comfortable. and maybe we will have to realise how complicated is the competition, to realise, to step forward. and if we're not able to do that, it's because we're not good enough. bournemouth scored a late penalty to keep up their best start to a premier league season with a 2—1win over crystal palace. this game looked to be heading for a draw, but then mamadou sakho flung out an elbow in the box.
7:36 am
that gave junior stanislas the chance to get the winner and move bournemouth up to seventh in the table. great britain are hoping to have a women's football team competing at the toyko olympics in two years' time. fifa have accepted an application from all four home nations to nominate england to try to qualify. the agreement only applies to the women's team, and not the men's. team gb competed at the home olympics in 2012, but not in rio four years later. british men's number one kyle edmund has reached the second round of the china open. edmund came from a set down to beat world number 70 germany's peter gojowczyk. he will face either matteo berrettini or leonardo mayer next. tyson fury and deontay wilder had to be separated at their press conference in london,
7:37 am
as they announced the staples center in los angeles as the venue for their world heavyweight title fight in december. it is fury‘s third bout sincejune, as he comes back from more than 18 months away from the ring. they'll be fighting for wilder's wbc belt. it is hoped the winner will then face anthonyjoshua to become the undisputed world heavyweight champion. i will stand and prove what i will do to this idiot. i will punch his face right in for him, not a problem. seven days a week, and twice on sunday. if we fought 30 times, i would win 30 times, that is how confident i am of beating deontay wilder. the difference in demeanour between that press conference and the one we started with, withjose mourinho, is quite striking, isn't it? sometimes in football, the crowd is referred to as the 12th player on the pitch. of course, it also helps a great deal if the referee is part of the team.
7:38 am
that is pretty much what happened in dagestan. in a match between keyes dd and manas, this penalty kick for manas was given when the score was 4—2. the ball ricocheted off the head of the ref and into the net. the goal stood. the game ended in a 4—4 draw. he is like an inanimate object.” mean, it was a good goal.” he is like an inanimate object.” mean, it was a good goal. i am not sure he knew too much about it, but it will count. an interesting morning. if you are a fan of manchester united, i would love to hear what you think about the current situation with jose mourinho. we have been talking about him a lot in the last few days, but what will happen to him and that club? it is an important week for theresa may, who is facing
7:39 am
the pressure of a party conference speech tomorrow, in front of unsupportive backbenchers, with those troubling eu negotiations on her mind. today she is setting out details of the government's post—brexit immigration plan. we can talk live to the prime minister, who is in birmingham, now. good morning, prime minister. thank you very much forjoining us on bbc brea kfast. you very much forjoining us on bbc breakfast. i know we don't get to speak to you very often. we would like to speak to you about things other than brexit this morning, but obviously that does dominate proceedings. we are talking about immigration, sajid javid will be talking about that at the conference today. a lot of businesses say they need immigration to cover labour shortages. how will you make sure that it doesn't damage the economy? well, good morning, and the policy we are announcing today delivers on
7:40 am
the results of the referendum, takes back control of our borders, ensures that free movement comes to an end once and for all, and we will be deciding who can come into this country. but we recognise the point that you have made, that businesses say that there are skills that they need to bring into this country. so the new system will be based not on where people come from but on what they can contribute to the economy, they can contribute to the economy, the skills that they have. of course, we are also working as a government to ensure that we are building up the skills of young people here in the uk. at our new immigration policy is crucially going to ensure free movement ends, and who can come here will be determined by their contribution to our economy, not by where they come from. you claim to be the party of business, you have made that stand before, but firms like jaguar land rover, bmw, toyota, they have issued stark warnings about what they see as the dangers of no deal brexit. how can you claim to be the party of
7:41 am
business if you seem to be ignoring what they say are legitimate concerns? what we are doing is we have been listening to business on that particular issue, and that is why we have put forward a plan for our future relationship with the european union, which ensures not just that we deliver on the vote of the british people, that we bring free movement to an end. as i have said, our immigration policy we are announcing today is about doing just that, that we make sure we are not sending vast sums of money to the eu every year in the future, that we bring an end to the jurisdiction of the european court ofjustice, but we do it in the european court ofjustice, but we do itina the european court ofjustice, but we do it in a way that delivers no hardboard between we do it in a way that delivers no ha rdboa rd between northern we do it in a way that delivers no hardboard between northern ireland and ireland and recognises the importance of frictionless trade across the border for companies such as those in the car industry. with those of supply chains. that is what is on the table in the chequers plan, we are working on a good deal that has frictionless trade at its heart. that is what businesses have said they need and that is what we are working for. you have mentioned
7:42 am
the chequers plan. can i ask you in detail on that, labour had said they will not support it, and a lot of your mps have said they had severe difficulties with it as well. what will you do if you can't get it through parliament? well, when we have agreed a deal with the european union, we will bring that back to parliament. and obviously members of parliament. and obviously members of parliament will look at that deal. i think they will also recall that this is about delivering on the vote that the british people talk. it is about delivering on brexit for the british people. but my message to the labour party is they have to stop playing politics on this and start acting in british interests. but they don't agree with your proposal, so is there a plan b? it is ok to say we will deliver that the parliament and they will vote on it, but what if they don't vote on it? well, we're in the process of negotiating a deal. when we bring a deal back people will be able to look at the details of that deal. we have seen the labour party saying
7:43 am
basically that they won't accept any deal that i bring back from the european union, regardless of how good it is for the united kingdom, but they will accept any deal europe offered them, regardless of how bad it is for the united kingdom. that is playing politics with this issue, it is not acting in the national interest. i am acting, the government is acting, in the national interest. are you saying once again this morning that whatever happens he will not call a general election, they will not be a further referendum, and the third pa rt further referendum, and the third part of that i suppose is that under no circumstances will you stand down? well, first of all, as i have just said, we are acting in the national interest. it is not in the national interest. it is not in the national interest. it is not in the national interest to have a general election. we are working to get that good deal and the right relationship with the european union in the future. on the issue of the second referendum, people have had a vote. we voted in 2016. the british people voted to leave the european union, andi voted to leave the european union, and i think it is important for trust in politics and politicians
7:44 am
that people can now feel that we as a government are delivering on that vote. we gave people a choice, they chose. we should be delivering on that choice. you talk about trying to organise the deal with the eu. how damaging was what happened in salzburg? subsequently we have seen donald tusk posted instagram pictures of the no cherry and offering to cake. i know you are asking for respect but it doesn't seem like you or the uk are getting it at the moment.“ you look at what has happened in salzburg and i was clear after the european council meeting in salzburg, and the response we got from the eu, i was clear about the uk position that the eu put two offers on the table which are unacceptable offers on the table which are u na cce pta ble to offers on the table which are unacceptable to the uk, one of them doesn't deliver on the referendum vote and the other effectively would
7:45 am
break up our country. that's why we put a further proposal before the european union. they have said that there are aspects of the proposal that they agree with and they want to discuss. there are some that they have concerns with. let's hear those concerns. let's hear if they have any counterproposals. you have said about that respect that you expect from those you negotiate with the eu, that has to work both ways, doesn't it, prime minister? when the foreign secretary likens the eu to the soviet union, is that something that you agree with, that standpoint, and is it being respectful? well, first of all, the point he was making was an important one, that we have had the biggest democratic exercise in this country's history, it was the referendum vote in 2016 and we should be respecting and delivering on that referendum vote. and across the european union are thinking it is important for people to recognise that vote and that we need to deliver on that boat. was he right to compare the eu...? that
7:46 am
deliver on that boat. was he right to compare the eu. . . ? that was the point that he was making. as i sit around a table in the european union there are countries who used to be pa rt there are countries who used to be part of the soviet union and they are democratic countries. and i can tell you that the two organisations are not the same. can i ask you about yourformer are not the same. can i ask you about your former foreign secretary borisjohnson? about your former foreign secretary boris johnson? he is about your former foreign secretary borisjohnson? he is going to speak ata borisjohnson? he is going to speak at a fringe event today at the conference. are you on speaking terms, how does it... how does it go when you're in the room together at the moment? i'm sure that's going to bea the moment? i'm sure that's going to be a very lively event this evening. i'm focusing... at this conference what we are focusing on is the opportunity for this country when we leave the eu and the opportunity that we want to ensure that people in this country have. so the opportunity for young people to get a home of their own. and through the work we are doing to ensure more homes are being built. the opportunity for young people to have the skills they need for the jobs of the skills they need for the jobs of the future through the changes in
7:47 am
technical education. the opportunity for new, highly skilled, higher paid jobs to be created in this country. establishing the economy of the future. that's what this conference is about and that's what we are focusing on and i am also ensuring that we are doing the work to get a good dealfor europe. that we are doing the work to get a good deal for europe.” that we are doing the work to get a good deal for europe. i understand where you are coming from on that, to go back to borisjohnson, how do you deal with him? he does try to derail you. he said about the chequers plan, deranged and preposterous, even though you're concentrating on other things, many will listen to what he says today as he puts out his own plan. look, the plan on the table that we are discussing with the european union is the one plan, the chequers plan, the one plan that delivers on the vote of the british people, ensures we have free movement, announcing today the immigration policy that will enable us to do that, but also, at the same time, it will enable us to ensure frictionless trade across
7:48 am
the border that we have no hard border between northern ireland and ireland, and we protectjobs in this country, which i think is a good dealfor the uk. country, which i think is a good deal for the uk. if country, which i think is a good dealfor the uk. if the eu have concerns, we need to hear those concerns. two other points of domestic policy i would like to talk to you about before we go. there is an issue resonating with so many viewers and many families over the last few days, the family of natasha la perouse, the changing food labelling laws, what changes will we see to make sure that doesn't happen ain? see to make sure that doesn't happen again? this was an absolutely tragic case and azimuth water with her family and friends over what happened. we have to obviously look at this issue, we have to look at company responsibility as well but this is something that has been an absolute tragedy and our sympathies and condolences are with her family and condolences are with her family and friends. something else that has and friends. something else that has a huge reaction not only from last night's programme by through the
7:49 am
series of blue planet, this war on plastic, and many people contacted us today asking what the government are going to do because campaigners have said that there are no teeth in those policies. some of the suggestions that have come through from one of your own mps, tarifa coffee, once mcdonald's to ban the plastic toys, a levy on plastic products, tax on single use products, tax on single use products, banning plastic straws and cotton buds. what can you as prime minister do to try to get behind the movement to try to change the amount plastic we put in our oceans? well, i have to say actually it is not about the government getting behind the movement, the government has been part of that huge movement. look at what we have done in banning micro beads for example which of course have caused real problems in our oceans. look at what we have donein our oceans. look at what we have done in the past in relation to the charge on plastic carrier bags. huge numbers of plastic carrier bags not being used any longer because of the action the government has taken and
7:50 am
we are looking at what further action we can take on that. it is not just about that side of this issue. it is also about working with industry to ensure that we can see more plastic that is recyclable. it is about working with industry to see other means of protecting goods and so forth. so we work with industry but we also ensure we are taking the action to, as i say, not just run behind the movement against plastic, this government has been at the forefront of the movement against plastics. thank you very much forjoining us on breakfast this morning. we will see you later on. theresa may will have a keynote speech tomorrow and we will reflect on that as well. right now we are going to look at the weather and thatis going to look at the weather and that is out and about on the east london rooftop. thank you very much, yes, looking at the city of london, grey skies overhead but for some the sunshine is out and we will now look at the forecast. the overall theme across the uk competitor yesterday
7:51 am
is it is a lot breezy with gale force winds across northern scotland, but scotland and north—east england have the best of the sunshine. elsewhere it where the funds have pushed in overnight and across northern ireland into north—west england, down to the south—east we have outbreaks of rain —— elsewhere we have weather fronts pushing in overnight. and in parts of northern ireland and northern and western wales it might remain damp all day long with further rain or drizzle at times. most of you will spend the bulk of the day dry with brea ks spend the bulk of the day dry with breaks in the cloud in the south, the best of the cloud breaks in north—east england and scotland. lovely sunny day for many and a few showers in the final for scotland. it is here where we will see the strongest of the wind, coming in from the west, we could see them touch 50— 60 mph in the north, cool in the northern half of the country compared to the south, temperatures up compared to the south, temperatures up on yesterday at around 20 degrees in the south—east corner. tonight, cloud will push northwards once again. it will cloud over across western scotland. we will see some
7:52 am
rain or drizzle western scotland. we will see some rain ordrizzle in western scotland. we will see some rain or drizzle in the west at times. most will be dry. clear skies in eastern scotland, with the lowest temperatures, down to four or five degrees to start tomorrow morning. wednesday morning will be bright for eastern scotland and england before it is cloudy later in the day. the greatest jets of rain it is cloudy later in the day. the greatestjets of rain in the north and west of scotland, particular the highlands. most of us will have a dry day. writer in england and wales and with the sunshine coming through, across the uk, light winds tomorrow —— brighter in england and wales. temperatures roughly around the same sort of levels. and the same for thursday. scotland and northern ireland will have a wet day, with outbreaks of rain spreading south—east through the day. not a complete washout with sunshine either side of the rain band and for england and wales, showers in northern england and wales but for many sunshine developing, boosting temperatures are around 220 degrees. a bit breezy on thursday after the light winds on
7:53 am
wednesday —— around 20 degrees. i am here on the rooftop in east london, and it is a fairly breezy day in store. thank you very much. it is chilly. in the last hour nationwide have released their latest update on what's been happening with house prices across the uk. steph's got the latest. good morning. yes, one of many figures that give us a flavour of what's happening in the housing market. morning, everyone. nationwide building society has been publishing house price data since 1952. they look at the average price agreed on a property bought using a nationwide mortgage, and covers the whole of the uk. this morning they've released the figures for the three months to september. this morning they said prices joining me now is marta de sousa, a property commentator. so, what is going on, at your analysis on the housing market at the moment? well, the data today
7:54 am
shows we are within the 2— 3% annual growth and we expect it to be stable for the rest of the year as well so this is nothing unexpected. with brexit uncertainty and the uncertainty of a potential no deal, and the economic slowdown, you are really not seeing much change in what is really a stagnant property market. yes, and there are always regional variations in these figures, so what have we seen in terms of the regions? is it still a case of the south doing well? the other way around. the south and the north are doing terribly. the north is the worst performer with a 1.7% decrease, but in london we are seeing a decrease in prices. prices are still so high, though. just below the 2017 high of all time. there is still a lot of capped up. across the country, prices are half the amount of london. we will still see a big change i think. who is
7:55 am
doing well, if they are doing badly? at the moment we have seen the north—west doing well and really across the country, much better than london. london is performing very badly for the last five quarters. we have seen a constant steady decrease, or no growth at all. and just in terms of if you are considering buying or selling your home, is it a better time to be either of them? people have said it isa either of them? people have said it is a good time to be a buyer at the moment. at the moment the market is very slow. people are reticent to put the properties on the market because they are waiting to see what will happen with brexit, but there are not many buyers as well, because the property stock is extremely low. it isa the property stock is extremely low. it is a great time to be a buyer. get out and negotiate a good price. and as a seller of course you will sell your property for less because the asking prices are being slashed left, right and centre by the losses
7:56 am
you will make on your sale will be saved when you go and buy. thank you very much for running through that with us. thank you. thomas bjorn, ryder cup captain on the way in ten minutes' time. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london news. middle—class drug users will be targeted as part of a crackdown on the causes of violent crime. the home secretary is due to announce a series of measures to tackle the problem during his tory party conference speech later. affluent drug users have been linked to the rise in gang violence in london. sajid javid will also launch a consultation into whether schools, social services and housing departments should have a legal obligation to help tackle the cause of violence. it's something that's been welcomed by one youth project in south london. i think this is well overdue. i think the schools and professionals in the schools require help. we've spoken to parents in the community. they are screaming out for this sort of service, for the support, for
7:57 am
the professional, holistic package in the community. people across the capital are being offered the opportunity to plant 50,000 trees in parks, schools, private gardens and housing estates in london. it's part of the mayor's drive to make the capital greener and turn it into a so—called "national park city." individuals and community groups can bid for the trees through city hall, ahead of a mass, london—wide planting weekend in december. meanwhile, train companies are preparing to bring in autumn timetables, which are adapted to account for fallen leaves on tracks. many passengers will have to arrive at stations earlier and face longer journeys, as extra time is allowed to pass slippery sections of track. chiltern, south western and southeastern services will be affected by the changes, which stay in place til december. let's take a look at the travel situation now. there's a good service on the tubes this morning but there are minor delays on the overground between liverpool street and cheshunt. and minor delays on tfl rail between
7:58 am
liverpool street and shenfield, that eastbound only. if we turn to the roads. in west dulwich: croxted road is closed at the south circular following a collision. it is busier than usual northbound on the blackwall tunnel. finally in buckhurst hill: victoria road is closed outside the tube station because of a gas leak. now, the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it's a mild start out there this morning. many places starting the day in double figures celsius. so we've lost the chill from yesterday. it is, however, mostly cloudy and feeling a little bit humid. now, the cloud this morning thick enough to produce the odd spot of light rain and drizzle. it won't last long. it will clear away. it remains mostly cloudy. a fresh westerly breeze. the cloud thinning perhaps a little this afternoon. one or two sunny spells. if the sun comes out it will feel rather warm. temperatures getting up to 20 celsius, so much warmer than yesterday. overnight tonight, we're hanging on to the cloud and also it remains reasonably mild. spits and spots of light rain and drizzle overnight as well. the minimum temperature not especially low, again, around 12 celsius in central london, a little bit cooler out
7:59 am
towards the suburbs. as we head into wednesday, it is still feeling quite mild, quite humid, temperatures getting up to 19. quite a bit of cloud around, but some breaks in the cloud through the afternoon with some sunshine. still warm through friday and then a dip in temperatures and turning unsettled on saturday. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london in half an hour. plenty more on our website, facebook page and over on bbc radio london. now though it's back to dan and louise. bye for now. good morning, welcome to breakfast with louise minchin and dan walker. it is 8am. our headlines today... no further referendum. the prime minister insists she'll deliver on brexit. the british people voted to leave the european union, and i think it
8:00 am
is important for trust in politics and politicians that people can now feel that we as a government are delivering in that vote. growing anger among survivors of indonesia's earthquake and tsunami — as they face a fifth day with no water, no power and little sign of help. thousands of passengers stranded. budget airline primera collapses — i'm looking at what it means for the customers stuck abroad or left out of pocket. jose mourinho speaks his mind once again. this time he says some of his players don't care enough — as manchester united prepare to play in the champions league tonight. there were tears, cheers and an awful lot of champagne — we'll speak to winning ryder cup captain thomas bjorn about whether he plans a more permanent record of europe's incredible victory. and in the weather, a little bit of rain or drizzle to southern and western areas this morning. the best of the sunshine the further north and east you are, but quite a windy day for all. all the details here on
8:01 am
brea kfast. our main story on tuesday, october two... the prime minster has told us in the last half hour there will be no further referendum on brexit. she also confirmed there will not be another general election. mrs may said it was important for people's trust in politicians to deliver what the people voted for in 2016. on a second referendum, people have had a votes, in 2016 the british people voted to leave the european union. i think it is important for trust in politics and politicians that people can now feel we asa politicians that people can now feel we as a government are delivering on that. we gave people the choice, they chose, we should deliver on that. our correspondent iain watson is at the conservative party conference in birmingham for us this morning. iam sure i am sure you heard that interview from the prime minister, it is clear she is standing by her check as
8:02 am
planned? that's right, no deviation yet, but she also said of the european union had difficulties with that plant then she would want to hear from them to find there objections, so there is speculation there may therefore be some wriggle room to try to get a deal. certainly one very room to try to get a deal. certainly one very senior member of her cabinet told me last night they felt it was only slightly more likely there would be a deal but not at this stage. there needs to be progress later this month, another european summitand progress later this month, another european summit and a special summit in november. if she is saying look at the eu's objections, there might be some wriggle room, but the main thing today was her message to the conservative conference and the wider electorate that she was delivering in the pledge to end free movement. what she will say today very strongly is that the new immigration system which will favour skills over nationality will be put in place after brexit, but we must look at the small print is because
8:03 am
it would not come into effect until 2021, after the transition period. she did not go into detail in view the programmer earlier but it would be necessary to have temporary exemptions for sectors which still needs no skilled migration in order to function. some caveats, but where she is not moving ground is in the question of calling an early election, which labour is calling for, she said they are not acting in the national interest and that she is not prepared to put any deal she reaches with brussels to another referendum. thank you. there's growing anger over indonesia's response to friday's devastating earthquake and tsunami. survivors are facing a fifth day without water or power. the united nations says up to 200,000 people are in desperate need of aid, but rescue workers are still struggling to reach them. the uk government is sending £2 million to help with the relief effort.
8:04 am
jenny kumah reports. homes and lives destroyed in palu. the survivors are facing their fifth day without power and water. around 48,000 people have nowhere to live. but, amid the despair, there is hope. after days under the rubble, rescuers managed to release this man from his concrete tomb. the authorities have confirmed there was a fault with the tsunami detection system. a warning was sent out, but it appears to have underestimated the scale of the waves, and many didn't get the alerts because of power cuts. when the flooding hit, this mother picked up her two children and ran. translation: we were running for our lives, the waves chasing us. it's like a bad dream. when is help going to arrive? when will the government
8:05 am
pay attention to us? rescuers face a massive task, especially in trying to reach remote areas. foreign aid is on its way. in addition to the work that we do through our partners on the ground, the un and the red cross, we've also made some additional funding available to help with immediate need, and following a request from the indonesian government, we have deployed a team of disaster response experts. the military has put on flights to help with the evacuation of thousands desperate to flee the disaster zone. others have joined limited commercial flights out of the small, damaged airport in palu. jenny kumah, bbc news. we are hearing that the indonesian disaster response agency have said the death toll that has risen to 1200, the latest figures this morning. the bbc‘s rebecca henschke is in palu, one of the
8:06 am
worst affected areas. earlier, she gave us an update on the situation there. where i am now is a makeshift refugee camp set up near the local town hall. people who have been able to make it here, they have all lost their homes, either in the earthquake or swept away in the tsunami. here, they are getting now some basic supplies — two meals a day of rice and egg. we are seeing now more aid trickling in, the military increasing its personnel here, as well as the central government sending in supplies. but this is now the fifth day palu has been without power, and the city is running out of petrol and basic supplies. although people here have been incredibly patient and calm, in very hot weather under these plastic tents, there has been looting in the city a short while ago, clashes between the police there, with them firing warning shots into the cloud, to calm the situation down,
8:07 am
desperate people here. of course, we will keep you up to date with what is going on there. an extra £240 million of emergency funding will be spent on the social care system to ease pressure on the nhs this winter. health secretary matt hancock will tell the conservative party conference he hopes the money will free up hospital beds by helping older people get home more quickly when they're medically ready to leave. the local government association welcomed the extra money but said short term funding solutions weren't the answer. passengers have been left stranded after budget airline primera collapsed, cancelling all scheduled flights. the icelandic—owned airline ceased all operations at midnight, with many passengers unsure of alternative travel options. steph has more information. not many people may have heard of
8:08 am
this outline, but this is quite severe? yes, it is estimated there are between 2000 505,000 people currently stuck in the states because they had flights booked with primera to come back, now they have been cancelled. we have had messages from people in many parts of europe who say they are unable to get back. we have suspected this outline to have problems from around august, because that is when they started to cancel flights. they have been going for around 14 years, they started to offer long haulflights for around 14 years, they started to offer long haul flights on the cheap at the start of this year. they had been famous for mainly carrying scandinavian holiday—makers to various places like greece, turkey, egypt and spain. then they entered the long haul market at the beginning of the year, offering flights for as cheap as less than 100 quid to get from the uk to the us. that is unbelievably cheap. they
8:09 am
expanded very quickly, offering both. lots of people for great, that is such a cheap way to get to the states. they blame a number of problems, they were late getting some aircraft delivered which meant they had to charter planes, costing a lot of money macro. with their model of offering cheap flights they did not have enough to pay for them. that has caused an enormous amount of problems for them. they are struggling operationally. loads of people have said i am stuck, i have a flights booked, what should i do? the civil aviation authority is saying not to go to the airport, they have seized training at the moment. what are your rights if you are abroad? if you have booked as pa rt are abroad? if you have booked as part of a package, that is not many people, the travel operator it is obliged to get you home, that is one thing, but very few people are booked like that. there are other outlines that normally offered to help, they will fly you back at a
8:10 am
cheaper rate but you have to prove you were with primera and give them the details of that. that could be one way. also if you have travel insurance, it is worth checking if it is covered, and if you have booked on a credit card, as part of the legislation around protecting you when you don't get what you have bought, you can get your money back through that. but in terms of getting home at the moment, keep your options open and look at what other outlines are offering, don'tjust go for the first one unless, of course, you are desperate to get back as that will often be the most expensive. when you are on holiday it is the last thing you want to worry about. and up thing you want to worry about. and up to 5000 people as well. mike ashley's firm has sacked the senior management at house of fraserjust weeks after it bought the department store chain. sports direct paid £90 million for the uk's 58 branches back in august.

—— series stomach upsets might be one of the biggest obstacles to deep space travel. nasa has said that radiation exposure on a trip to mars or beyond could seriously damage astronauts' internal organs permanently and could link to cancer. scientists hope that medicines which could counteract those could be developed in the future. space travel is not without its complications, which is why i am never going to go! other reasons, too! now, there could well be one or two members of europe's triumphant ryder cup team who are still feeling the after—effects of the celebrations that followed their spectacular victory this weekend. they defied the odds to stage one of the greatest wins in the competition's recent history. in a moment we'll speak to captain thomas bjorn, but first let's take a look back at how it all unfolded. i think he is awake now! team europe's captain thomas bjorn joins us now from central london. i know you couldn't see the pictures

8:15 am
natural part. jim is a great friend of mine, he did a fantasticjob, he has been great at what he does and sometimes people make about too much out of it, there will always be a losing side in a ryder cup and from the outside where i stood, it looked like he was doing a greatjob. you have won as a player and a captain, which is the most exciting? this one is pretty special, it is right up there. it has been a fantastic experience and one of the greatest moments of my career. were you worried after friday morning, the way the americans came out? many people were thinking the american side, so many players in the top 20, it will be a very long weekend that the europeans. i would not say worried. i felt i had such strong force is that the friday afternoon. obviously you do not want to lose a session but when
