6:00 am
good morning welcome to breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. our headlines today — a warning to the world — scientists say we will have to make drastic changes to the way we live if we are to tackle climate change. the worst road accident in the united states for ten years as all 18 people in a limousine and two pedestrians are killed. too many apprentices aren't getting the high—quality training they deserve. that's the conclusion of a report out this morning from a committee of mps. mo farah wins a marathon for the first time — at only his third attempt — breaking the european record along the way in chicago. it isa it is a chilly start today but the england and wales today, mostly dry with some sunny spells developing. gotland and northern ireland,
6:01 am
cloudy, wet and windy. —— scotland. it's monday october the 8th. our top story — scientists have given one of the starkest warnings yet about the changes needed to tackle climate change. the report says that limiting temperature rises to no more than 1.5 celsius will require massive changes to the way we live. it warns that without action, all the world's coral reefs will die out and low lying regions will disappear because of rising sea levels. our science correspondent victoria gill reports. pictures of a warming world. scientists are more confident than ever that the impacts of climate change are playing out now in the severity and frequency of droughts, storms and other extreme weather against. and, having gathered in the south korean city of incheon —— events. and, having gathered in the south korean city of incheon for the past week, climate change researchers and government delegates
6:02 am
hammered out the final details of a dramatic report, outlining the consequences of a global temperature rise of more than 1.5 degrees and a plan for precisely how that can be prevented. countries need to up their ambition and get moving now with climate change action if we're going to keep 1.5 degrees within reach. with no action, the world is on course to breach this crucial target by as early as 2030, compromising the very livability of our planet. melting polar ice means global sea level rise is expected to be around ten centimetres more if we allow warming to go to two degrees. keeping it to 1.5 means 10 million fewer people would be exposed to the risks of flooding. but this plan is ambitious and it will be expensive. renewable energy sources will need to provide about 85% of global electricity by 2050. currently they account for about 25%. even with a green energy revolution, this most comprehensive assessment of the perils of climate change concludes that everyone of us will need to make changes in we live our lives,
6:03 am
changes that have to start now. victoria gill, bbc news. the report was released overnight in incheon in south korea. our environment correspondent matt mcgrath is there. thank you for coming on. give us a bit more detail. we heard in that report that it is ambitious and expensive. the key now is, is it going to be implemented? yes, that is the key. the question of feasibility is something scientist don't address directly. theyjust issue a plan. and in vicious planned but it's not just issue a plan. and in vicious planned but it's notjust for governments, it is for companies and individuals. —— ambitious plan. they make a strong and compelling case as to why it would benefit the world in terms of the coral reefs, in terms of
6:04 am
animal species that will die otherwise. in terms of our ability to grow our otherwise. in terms of our ability to grow oui’ economy, otherwise. in terms of our ability to grow our economy, to give ourselves fed and to keep ourselves growing, basically. they think that governments need to make the decisions and make them very quickly. this is something we will be returning to throughout the morning today. let us know. we have various guests coming up. will be talking about what can be done on a government level and also a personal level. 20 people have died in a crash involving a stretch limousine — police say it's the worst road accident in the united states for almost a decade. all 18 of the people in the limousine were killed as well as two pedestrians. labo diseko reports. it isa it is a day that should have been filled with celebration. instead, emergency services are at the scene
6:05 am
of america's worst transportation accident in almost a decade. it's thought the 18 people in the limousine were on their way to a party when their car came off the road and hit two pedestrians. all of them died. 20 fatalities isjust horrific. i have been on the board for 12 years and this is one of the biggest losses of life that we have seen biggest losses of life that we have seenin biggest losses of life that we have seen ina biggest losses of life that we have seen in a long, long time. up in buffalo, 50 people were killed that this is the most deadly transportation accident in this country since february 2000 and nine. this is the junction where the crash happened. it is thought the limousine failed to stop, veering out of control and ploughing into this cafe. i heard this a loud bang andi this cafe. i heard this a loud bang and i came out and saw a lot of people up here at the apple darryl. i saw people up here at the apple darryl. isawa people up here at the apple darryl. i saw a lot of people and heard screaming. —— barrel. isaw a

6:07 am
who was reported missing by his wife two weeks ago, is being investigated for corruption in his home country of china. the authorities say meng hongwei is suspected of breaking the law, but have given no further details. interpol said it's received his resignation. he's the latest high—profile disappearance in china, including a number of top government officials, billionaires and celebrities. 40% of young people are said to be unable to afford to buy the cheapest homes in their area — even if they have managed to save a ten per cent deposit. the institute for fiscal studies says house prices in england have risen steeply over the past two decades. ministers are thought to be considering a tax break to help long—term tenants to buy their home. over a million people turned out in liverpool to bid farewell to the giants — a street theatre show put on by a french arts company. the event, called liverpool's dream, involved a giant man figure, a boy and a dog called cholo moving
6:08 am
through the streets over four days. it was the giants' final worldwide appearance. the pictures of the crowds look staggering. so many people turned out to see the show and what a shame, they say it is the final time. it is a bit like gulliver's travels! i was thinking, i am not going to correct it. he just jumped i was thinking, i am not going to correct it. hejustjumped in. i was thinking, i am not going to correct it. hejustjumped inlj thought, people might watch at home and say, he got it wrong. lilies. wasn't it beautiful? some of the shots from the top of the building
6:09 am
we re shots from the top of the building were gorgeous. i love the way they get the giants and wake them up. they start asleep. i literally am a giant. we will talk about most —— mo farah. he has broken the european record in chicago. he said he felt very sluggish in the early stages but he picked up the pace and declared himself very happy with it. riyadh mahrez may be manchester city's record signing, but he lost his nerve at liverpool, missing a chance to score a late winner. the game finished goalless but city are top of the table on goal difference.
6:10 am
ido i do know if he did lose his nerve. he had quite a lot of nerve to ask for that penalty. former chelsea and england captain john terry has retired from football. he's the club's most decorated player, making more than 700 appearances — and also earning 78 caps for his country. and after five years away, london broncos are returning to rugby league's top flight — they beat toronto wolfpack in canada, to take the final super league spot for next season. iam sure i am sure in the review this morning, we will be talking about a couple of football matches over the weekend. talking of the paper review, i want to talk about this story. football fans are instinctively biased towards their tea m instinctively biased towards their team because of their caveman brains, according to the university of york. they showed footage of, i think it was the liverpool— no, sorry, manchester united and chelsea. they showed their team
6:11 am
doing well and fans would agree with each other in interpretation of what they see whereas fans of the opposition will have an alternative view of the same incident. it is pa rt view of the same incident. it is part of the brain. it is a link between awareness and bias.|j part of the brain. it is a link between awareness and bias. i don't know why you are looking at me when you say buyers. 0ften know why you are looking at me when you say buyers. often when you talk about football, you get lots of people getting in touch saying, i know you are a fan of whatever club! they don't get it right often. —— when you say bias. when we talk about football, it is not my bias, it's your understandable bias. you have team. you want to talk about your team, if you don't talk about it, you think... is something happen toa memberof
6:12 am
it, you think... is something happen to a member of the family, you would think it was somebody else's fault. bands often complain. —— fans. are you 0k, carol? just checking. this morning in the south—east, it isa this morning in the south—east, it is a chilly start to the day. it is around two or three degrees in kent but the rest of the uk isn't as cold. if you like the weather a bit warmer, by the time you get a wednesday, it will certainly be that. some parts of the uk could have temperatures 10 degrees above where they should be for this time of year. some parts of the south—east, for example, reaching 23 or 24. it's not just south—east, for example, reaching 23 or 24. it's notjust the south—east as you will see soon. looking at
6:13 am
today's forecast, we have some rain across the north—west of scotland and the west of scotland. here, too, it will be windy. for the rest of the uk, a fine day but not in ireland. you will have rain and you will hang on to it. you can see on the pressure chart, there is a weather front. it has the pressure chart, there is a weatherfront. it has produced rain across scotland and it will do so again today, tonight and tomorrow before we are finished with it. the rain in scotland and northern ireland today across the north and north—west in particular. eastern scotla nd north—west in particular. eastern scotland not seeing as much. further south, mostly dry. the showers will be on and off through the day but the cloud will break and we will see sunny spells developing and further south, it won't be as windy as the north. temperature wise today, we are looking at about ten in the north to highs of about 18 as we sweep down to the south. even today's temperatures in southern
6:14 am
england are above average. normally if you are in scotland or northern ireland, it will be roughly 13 degrees. further south, we will be lucky if we see 14. through the evening and overnight, we hang onto the rain in auckland and northern ireland. it is still windy here. further south, some breaks in the cloud. —— scotland. we will see missed —— mist. and fog. temperatures will be lower than you see on the charts. heading into tomorrow, the rain is still in scotla nd tomorrow, the rain is still in scotland and northern ireland. little getting into the east until later on. still, a fine day for england and wales with temperatures a higher. we could hit 20 tomorrow. as we head into wednesday, this looks like the driest and the warmest day of the week. the winds become more southerly with the
6:15 am
weather front being pushed towards the north. we are looking widely at temperatures into the high teens or the low— mid 20s. it could see 24 in the low— mid 20s. it could see 24 in the south—east. when you think about the south—east. when you think about the average at this time of year being almost 13 or 14, that is a huge difference! you look well wrapped up as well, carol. thank you. let's take a look at some of the front pages. victoria has joined us victoria hasjoined us as victoria has joined us as well. these are the front pages. the times leads with a claim that brexiteers within the conservative party have warned the prime minister that she can keep britain within eu customs arrangements until 2022 at the latest. the picture is of two dogs who attended the wooferendum dog march in central london yesterday. —— london. the telegraph says police are setting targets to investigate fewer than half of all reported crimes. they also have a picture of sean walsh and katya jones who apologised to their partners after being seen kissing outside a pub!
6:16 am
the metro leads with the deaths of two runners at a half marathon in cardiff yesterday. and the daily mirror splashes on the apologies issued by strictly come dancing contestant, seann walsh, and his dance partner, katya jones, after they were photographed kissing outside a pub. they have both got partners. her partner is that neil fellow, who is also in strictly. and jodie whittaker‘s long—awaited doctor who debut was creating a buzz online overnight. thousands of people tweeted about her performance and the response was overwhelmingly positive. we'll be speaking to a couple of tv critics at the end of the show to see what they thought of last night's show. presumably you watched ? presumably you watched? i'm aware. you're aware. it was the monster, the teeth thing. it was in sheffield. all over the place in sheffield! tell us what you thought of it, we will be talking about it
6:17 am
later. let's take a look at today's papers. victoria, we haven't seen you for a while, or i haven't. victoria, we haven't seen you for a while, or! haven't. thank you victoria, we haven't seen you for a while, or i haven't. thank you for having me back! let's start with this one, in the guardian, this one made me laugh, the party is over apparently for club 18—30. the brand is being retired says thomas cook. they said it no longer fits in with the wider programme, so it is less sex and sangria and more vegan delights. they have launched something called cooks club, holidays with a melting pot of cultures for millennials. that is to make it more instagram friendly, isn't it? people want to post cute pictures of their holidays. you don't want your mum following you on instagram to see the things that used to happen on these holidays. and the things on that tv series as well! i have heard! what have you got, sally? the back pages... of
6:18 am
course, full off mahan, manchester city and liverpool. we will show interviews with all the managers of those clubs through the morning but this from the times first, billy vunipola yesterday, great piece here, he says he basically stole the show as saracens beat harlequins 25-20 show as saracens beat harlequins 25—20 yesterday, billy vunipola stole the show because he admitted without going to the video refs that he had not scored a try. the reporter is saying in rugby it will go to the video refs and the player will know whether it was over the line or not and they will see what happens and what they've been calling for is more player on a steep. billy went, no, that wasn't a dry. he got a try in the second half anyway. this is my favourite story in the telegraph this morning. the fia world rally championship, elite drivers can drive side—by—side with amateurs. the telegraph have sent a journalist to do this and he says
6:19 am
it's like being on a rollercoaster when you're about to vomit. i would be the worst... could you imagine being in the passenger seat in a rally car like that? having to look down... i think he was actually sick. when you're in the passenger seat, are you also helping with the driving? you can't close your eyes. i have to drive everywhere, on a quiet road i get sick! it is my worst ever nightmare assignment. something about royal bank of scotla nd something about royal bank of scotland as well? this is interesting, from root to to royal bank of scotland, royal bank of scotland might be looking to change its name to repair its battered image —— from club 18—30 to royal bank of scotland. riot police about ten years ago outside the city of london. this was during the 620 protest. the chairman said to the times that the royal bank of scotland name was actually under review because even though it actually does quite well in terms of
6:20 am
personal and business banking, it is at the bottom of the league when it comes to how people rate it. very interesting. the dad joke. i love a dad joke. they are back in fashion because experts asked the collating people are embracing be safe and cringeworthy humour... good morning! —— experts are enjoying and embracing the safe. it is an antidote to... why don't you tell us one, doa antidote to... why don't you tell us one, do a dad joke, your best one.|j can't one, do a dad joke, your best one.” can't speak! here we go, let's see ifi can't speak! here we go, let's see if i can get this right. i haven't got my glasses. at work we have a printer named bob marley... because? 0h, printer named bob marley... because? oh, i know we jammin'. you can tell
6:21 am
a man's gender by putting it in one water, if it is a girl and it sinks, if it is a boy and it is buoyant —— an and's gender. i know one. i will tell you next week! —— an ant‘s gender. when are you going to tell me? you can... when are you going to tell me the punchline? that is the punchline, there is another alternative. i can't remember drugs, dan, you can tell me next week and i might not find it funny! —— i can't rememberjokes. i can't see the words today! welcome to my world! governments across the world have been told that dramatic action is needed now to tackle global warming. it follows a major report by climate scientists, which was published in south korea overnight. let's take a look at what this means for all of us, with a special report for breakfast
6:22 am
by the environmental scientist, angela terry. climate change is the biggest challenge we face. it has the potential to change our entire way of life. in fact, i would say as a scientist, it already is. the planet has warmed by one celsius already, and most of that warming has happened in the last few decades, and it's going to get hotter and hotter. 0ne celsius may not sound like much, but it's already having an impact. we're seeing more extreme weather, both here in the uk and around the world. if this is the impact ofjust one degree's warming, imagine the impact of two or three degrees. for decades, researchers argue that global temperature rise must be kept under two celsius to avoid the worst impacts of global warning. but
6:23 am
scientists now say keeping below 1.5 degrees is a far safer limit for the world. research says 10 million fewer people would lose their homes to rising seas. there would be a 50% drop in people suffering from water shortage, and the risk of populations facing at least one severe heat wave every five years would be halved. so can it be achieved? absolutely. but only if we drastically reduce our emissions. the good news is the technologies already exist and their economically viable. electric cars, wind farms and solar power. using less energy and insulating our buildings will all reduce our carbon emissions and planting more trees and restoring the natural environment will help restore carbon out of the atmosphere and return the balance of nature.
6:24 am
however, to stay within1.5 degrees celsius, we need to make these changes as fast as humanly possible. we humans get to decide the future of our planet. the next few months and years will be critical. we get to decide between a flourishing future or a climate catastrophe. anguilla is here and thank you for doing that. this is a far—reaching report done by many nations —— anguilla. you talked about it there, this is becoming almost an emergency situation, is that how you would describe it? absolutely, we're at a crossroads where we've known for 30 yea rs crossroads where we've known for 30 years that climate change is happening, we've known the causes, burning fossilfuels, but happening, we've known the causes, burning fossil fuels, but globally emissions are going up so we to reach zero carbon emissions as soon as humanly possible. but the good news is, as i said in the report,
6:25 am
the technology is there to do that so that's the crucial part of the story. we've been talking about this this morning, reiterating what we can do, people watching this morning, what changes can we make? it isn't just about morning, what changes can we make? it isn'tjust about governments, but individuals as well. the winter is coming now so one of the best things you can do is insulate your home. loft insulation, warm insulation —— wall insulation. that means you don't pay as much for energy bills. the other thing is the electric car. electric cars are around 3p or 4p a mile but a diesel car is around 12p per mile. they are cheaper to run and better for the environment because of the tailpipe emissions. electric cars have been adopted wholesale and many talk about problems with them, you can't get far enough and the infrastructure isn't there. whenever a new technology comes on there's always concerns about them and adopting
6:26 am
them... but last month it was one in 12 cars sold were alternative fuel vehicles. 0nce 12 cars sold were alternative fuel vehicles. once you have one, you're quite evangelical about them. they are very quite evangelical about them. they are very good basically. the people that have them, if you have any concerns, talk to someone who has them and they tend to wax lyrical about them, they are very popular. lots of people getting in touch this morning and i know you're back later, but thank you for that and for the report as well. we will talk about it through the programme, what you can do as individuals and the pressure on governments and what they need to do as well. share any ideas you have and we will discuss this through the programme for you. still to come on breakfast: we'll be meeting the men who're demonstrating that you're never too old to learn how to cook. it's a lovely piece. some of them are at the start of their... some of them at the start of their cooking lessons didn't know the difference between a carrot and a parsnip, but now they do. a very important
6:27 am
distinction. it is, and taste as well! ? made the programme already at only 6:15am! —— carrots made the programme already at only 6:15am.” am not sure about parsnips. it is all about how they are cooked! time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning, i'm asad ahmed. undercover police have been testing hotel staff in london to see if they can spot signs of child exploitation. 0fficers can spot signs of child exploitation. officers have spent a week attempting to check into rooms accompanied by a young person while brandishing bottles of alcohol and paying for a room in cash. the metropolitan police want hotels to contact them if they suspect exploitation, but scotland yard has said family hotels in london spotted the signs during their tests. dame barbara windsor has urged
6:28 am
people to run the 2019 london marathon in aid of a campaign to raise money and change attitudes towards dementia. the 81—year—old former eastenders and carrie 0n actors was diagnosed with alzheimer is in 2014. dame barbara's husband, scott, plans to run the marathon himself. dame barbara spoke from her phone on video. two teenagers are in custody after four officers were injured in islington when they broke up injured in islington when they broke upafight injured in islington when they broke up a fight at the weekend. police were called to an address on liverpool road and were confronted bya man liverpool road and were confronted by a man with a large knife. another school in east london will stay closed today because of the false widow spiders. the bribery school in you will deal with the infestation of spiders, which are about the size of a 50p piece —— primary. is the sixth school in london to close in that part. they cause painful swelling —— sixth school. —— it's the sixth school. let's look abbey travel situation this morning. looking at the true

6:31 am
the snp leader nicola sturgeon says her party would vote in favour of another eu referendum — she'll be joining us at 7:40 from her party's conference in glasgow. and he's a friend to all the stars — graham norton will be swapping his own red sofa for ours when he pops in to tell us about his new novel — an irish tale of love, regret, and family secrets. good morning. here's a summary of today's main stories from bbc news. scientists have given one of the starkest warnings yet about the changes needed to tackle climate change. the report by the intergovernmental panel on climate change says that limiting temperature rises to no more than 1.5 celsius will require massive changes to the way we live. it warns that without action, there could be severe consequences for the global population and natural world. will see more people going hungry,
6:32 am
we will see more people in poverty. we will see more people in the developing world impacted. there are substantial developing world impacted. there are su bsta ntial costs developing world impacted. there are substantial costs from not acting on climate change. 20 people have died in a limousine crash in what police are calling the united states' deadliest road accident in almost a decade. the accident, which took place in new york state, killed all 18 of the limousine's passengers, as well as two pedestrians. there are reports that the victims included four sisters. the cause of the crash is unclear. the organisers of the cardiff half—marathon say they will carry out a review after two competitors died in yesterday's race. the two men, who have not been named but were in their 20s and 30s, collapsed at the finishing line. they are believed to have suffered heart attacks. the organisers say they were both given medical treatment at the scene, before being taken to hospital where they died. more than a third of girls have
6:33 am
been harassed in public while wearing school uniform, according to a new report. the children's charity plan international uk surveyed more than 1,000 teenagers and young women. two—thirds of girls also said they have experienced unwanted attention in public. the charity's calling on bystanders to challenge harassment when they see it. japan's prime minister has said that the uk would be welcomed into the trans—pacific trade partnership with open arms, post brexit. the tpp is made up of 11 countries, also including australia, canada and mexico. shinzo abe also said that he hoped the uk and eu would avoid a hard brexit. a competition to build the highest and most complex human tower has taken place in the spanish city of tarragona. 40 teams took part watched by
6:34 am
thousands of spectators. building human towers is a tradition in catalonia, going back to the 18th century. the winners of yesterday's event took home the first prize of 14,000 pounds. 0h, oh, my goodness gracious me! one, two, three, four, five... do you have to get down safely as well to com plete have to get down safely as well to complete it? you would hope so. amazing. that is... you are shaking your head. how he does it, i don't know that mo farah... —— bite. —— but.
6:35 am
it was little more than a year ago that mo farah decided to switch from track to road — and this was only his third race over the marathon distance — but he broke the european record with victory in chicago. patrick gearey reports. from track to tarmac, mo farah isn't slowing down. he is still new to road running. chicago is only the third marathon he had ever run and yet he has already set a faster time than any european in history. of course, he is used to leading the way. he is britain's most successful track athlete with for a levy gold medals. lucky, he moved to the streets. in london, he broke the record and finished third. the finish line in chicago was also the scene are finish line in chicago was also the scene are the family reunion with his wife tanya. i haven't seen them for a little while sub i want to go back to london and see my kids and
6:36 am
spend some time with them. then think about what the next step is. hopefully, the world championships. 0ther hopefully, the world championships. other stuff, i'm not sure. his family might have to put up with not having him around for a while longer. he is planning to return to the olympics as a marathon runner. he will be 37 in tokyo that he has spent a lifetime trying to beat time. let's have a look at how fa rah‘s performance ranks. his winning time in chicago was more than 3.5 minutes slower than the world record set in berlin last month by kenya's eliud kipchoge. it doesn't even make the top ten quickest marathon times. but it is faster than the olympic record set in beijing 10 years ago, so if he could repeat his time in tokyo in two years, he'd stand a good chance of winning gold. it was one of the most eagerly anticipated football matches of the season, but liverpool and manchester city could only produce a goalless draw at anfield. city's record signing riyadh mahrez had the best chance to score a winner — but he was off target from the penalty spot.
6:37 am
city are top of the table, though, ahead of chelsea and liverpool on goal difference. chelsea won 3—0 at southampton — eden hazard taking his league tally to seven. but their boss maurizio sarri doesn't believe chelsea are quite good enough to challenge manchester city or liverpooljust yet. you mark i think exactly what i thought one week ago. --i think exactly. that city and liverpool are a step ahead of us and so now we are working and we are trying to cover the gap. and chelsea's former captain john terry has retired from football. he's the club's most decorated player, winning five premier league titles, five fa cups and a champions league with them. he also captained england but he's 37 now and he's been without a club since leaving aston villa in the summer. there's one more result to bring you from yesterday —
6:38 am
arsenal winning 5—1 at fulham — and have a look at this wonderful team move — nine passes took the ball from one penalty area to the other with aaron ramsey making an early bid for goal of the season. it's a topsy—turvy season in the scottish premiership with rangers inflicting a first defeat on leaders hearts, winning 3—1 at ibrox. it had been hearts' best start to a season since 2005, but they had no answer for steven gerrard's side, who are unbeaten at home so far this season. they're up to sixth. and celtic are back to winning ways — they thrashed stjohnstone 6—0 at celtic park, with james forrest scoring four goals in half an hour. it's celtic‘s first away win of the season. london broncos will return to super league after five years away, after beating toronto wolfpack in the million pound game. it was a really cagey match in canada — no tries and only three goals,

6:40 am
the authorities say meng hongwei is suspected of breaking the law, but have given no further details. interpol said it's received his resignation. he's the latest high—profile disappearance in china, including a number of top government officials, billionaires and celebrities. let's talk to our china correspondentjohn sudworth who's in beijing. he has been missing for a while and over the weekend, china has said they had arrested him? exactly. an extraordinary story. given that interpol is supposed to specialise in tracking people across borders. for its own president to go missing in this fashion is extraordinary. you are right, we have had information from china that he he is being held here. he travelled back from lyon in france and was reported missing. whereabouts unknown. last night, china confirmed that they are
6:41 am
holding him. what is significant is that the announcement came not from a senior prosecutor or a court of law, it came from china's central, shadow we, at internal communist body. they are a serious —— there are serious concerns about the rights of people that disappear into that legal black hole. 0ne telling bit of detail, in the press conference his wife gave in lyon last night, she gave us a glimpse of the precarious life of a senior communist party official in china. she said the first she knew her husband was in danger on arrival backin husband was in danger on arrival back in china was that he sent her a single text message containing a single text message containing a single emoticon. the emoticon of a knife. really. what else do we know about some of the other people who have disappeared ? about some of the other people who
6:42 am
have disappeared? celebrities, government officials? how widespread is this clamp down on corruption? government officials? how widespread is this clamp down on corruption7m was launched a couple of years ago by china's president xi jinping and it has been widespread. more than 1.5 million officials now prosecuted under these crackdown on corruption. many of them are senior and a handful of very senior. from the communist pa rty‘s handful of very senior. from the communist party's point of view, it shows that nobody is above the law. as in any party state, we have no way ofjudging. there is an independent trial and we cannot tell whether they are indeed guilty or innocent of the charges and in this case, too, it will be very difficult to independently determined. while it may show that nobody is above the
6:43 am
law, it also of course it shows that ina law, it also of course it shows that in a system like this, without checks and balances, nobody is safe. the head of interpol arrested in china. 0ne the head of interpol arrested in china. one of the head of interpol arrested in china. 0ne of1.5 the head of interpol arrested in china. one of 1.5 million people indicated in this crackdown on corruption in china. you're watching breakfast from bbc news. the headlines: scientists issue the most extensive warning yet on the huge changes needed to avoid catastrophic levels of global warming. police in the us are investigating a limousine crash which killed 20 people, including the driver and all 17 passengers. here's carol with a look at this morning's weather. it feels chilly this morning, i think carol is feeling chilly too. i feel sorry for you! bless you, thank you! good morning. the coldest part of the country at the moment is the south—east. in kent, temperatures
6:44 am
are still between 2—4. towards the midlands, just into double figures and the same as we go further north. in scotland, we've seen a lot of rain over the course of the weekend in the north and north—west. you have more rain to come today, tonight and tomorrow, which could lead to issues but for the rest of the country, fairly dry. 0ver northern ireland, we'll also see some of the same rain scotland is having. the forecast for today is we're looking at that rain across the north—west of the country, including northern ireland, northern and western scotland. here too it will be pretty windy, whereas further south, we'll see sunny spells, especially where we start with the low temperatures and clear skies. you can see why we got all that rain, a weather front is wiggling and waving, so it is moving north, south, north, south and taking the rain with it. the heaviest rain will always be in the north and the west, in the east it
6:45 am
will be that bit lighter but at times it could wiggle into the north of england. for the rest of england and also wales, some cloud around this morning with a few showers in wales. they will be on and off through the day but sunny spells developing. temperature—wise, we're looking at roughly around ten in the north to highs of 18 in the south. in the light breezes, not feeling too bad. in the windy conditions and rain further north, feeling that bit cooler. through the evening and overnight, we hang on to the cloud and rain and windy conditions in scotla nd and rain and windy conditions in scotland and northern ireland. for england and wales, we have clear skies developing. there will so be patchy mist and fold in the south. temperature—wise, though, most in double figures but in rural areas, that bit lower. we start tomorrow with the rain again in northern ireland, northern and western scotla nd ireland, northern and western scotland and some of that getting into the east through the day. but the mist and fog that forms in southern england will lift quite quickly in the morning, then for
6:46 am
england and wales, it's going to be another day of sunny spells and temperatures a bit higher. tomorrow we're looking at roughly a range of 15-20. but it's we're looking at roughly a range of 15—20. but it's as we head into wednesday, the wind turns more southerly so that will push that weather front away from scotland so it will clear the north—west. most will have a dry day with a fair bit of sunshine but breezy mind you! look at those temperatures, way above average for this stage in 0ctober, we're looking at a range of roughly 16—24 north to south. the average temperatures in scotland and northern ireland at this time of year, 12 or 13. england and wales, around about 14, so that's a huge jump. will it last? no, because it looks more unsettled towards the end of the week. it sounds like we might be having messy weather. that's a very good way of describing it! thanks very much. a day for a big coat! too many apprentices aren't getting the high—quality training they deserve,
6:47 am
that's acording to a report out this morning from mps. victoria has been looking at this. good morning. good morning to you both. apprenticeships are essentially a full—time job with training, and they lead to a qualification. most trainees work alongside an experienced member of staff. a mentor if you like. and one day a week, they study at a local college. the government pledged to create three million apprenticeships by 2020. as a result, lots of training providers started offering courses. but the education committee is concerned about the quality of some of that training. one in five apprenticeship providers inspected are rated less than good. the committee wants training providers to up their game. it is calling on the government to introduce a quality assurance mark, like a kite mark system, to help apprentices choose the best employerfor them. the british chambers of commerce represents about 100,000... 0ver 100,000 businesses.
6:48 am
jane gratton is head of business environment and skills policy there. you gave evidence to a parliamentary enquiry into apprenticeships, the whole system has changed and yet the number of people joining apprenticeship schemes is still small falling, why can't we get this right? over years we've had many change in the technical system and that's dented confidence for businesses. we need a stable and coherent system that encourages businesses to invest and people to get involved in apprenticeships. but the main message is we can't afford for these apprenticeship reforms to fail. businesses are experiencing really severe recruitment difficulties, and our latest survey shows these are at record levels of difficulty so we have to get it right this time and the committee is right this time and the committee is right to insist on good quality. do you think it's true that the standard of training is failing? the
6:49 am
co nsta nt level of standard of training is failing? the constant level of tinkering and change... it means people are adapting to a different system too often. that sounds like it is, you agree the training is falling in terms of its quality? businesses lost confidence in the system for a while. they need skills that allow people to do the job properly and boost productivity, and apprentices need skills that give them tra nsfera ble need skills that give them transferable skills they can do well in in really well—paid careers. quality is great but we need confidence the provider is quality assured and well resourced so they can provide the training businesses need. if you raise the bar for entry into apprenticeships, don't you risk excluding some of the very people apprenticeships are there to support to allow them to get a first leg if you well on the appointment ladder? apprenticeships offer brilliant career routes for everybody of
6:50 am
all... -- if you will. if businesses are doing this they aren't serving the 16 to 18—year—old who don't want to be at college, they want to be at work. that's right, businesses love apprenticeships, they're work. that's right, businesses love apprenticeships, they‘ re great work. that's right, businesses love apprenticeships, they're great for business and people and we want more young people going into this. it's about giving confidence to business and parents. businesses, schools and government need to work together to raise confidence in the system and remove barriers, removing financial barriers, travel barriers or any misconceptions about how good careers are that you can access apprenticeships with.” careers are that you can access apprenticeships with. i can think of lots of businesses that would disagree and say they don't like apprenticeships. forthe disagree and say they don't like apprenticeships. for the big business it's an apprenticeship levy, it cost them money, and if you're not that big, you pay in other ways because essentially you're getting an apprentice who has to go off 20% of the time, one day a
6:51 am
week, let's say, to train and then you will have to backfill someone else to do the work. lots of businesses are not liking this. apprenticeships are great, the system isn't working properly at the moment. it's taken a long time to settle down and businesses have been saying the government, work with us, listen to us and improve flexibility in the system so we can spend our money in the way that best suits the needs of the business and create more apprenticeship jobs and opportunities. that's what we need, more skills in the workplace. agreed. jane pratt, thanks very much. a statement from the apprenticeships and skills minister, and milton ——jane grattan. 83% of registered providers inspected were rated good or outstanding and any provider that falls short of those standards will be removed from the register. they're sticking at the moment to that quota of 3 million apprenticeships by 2020. victoria, thank you very much. thank

it warns that without action, all the world's coral reefs will die out and low lying regions will disappear because of rising sea levels. 0ur science correspondent victoria gill reports. pictures of a warming world. scientists are more confident than ever that the impacts of climate change are playing out now in the severity and frequency of droughts, storms and other extreme weather events. and, having gathered in the south korean city of incheon for the past week, climate change researchers and government delegates hammered out the final details of a dramatic report, outlining the consequences of a global temperature rise of more than 1.5 degrees and a plan for precisely how that can be prevented. countries need to up their ambition and get moving now with climate change action if we're going to keep 1.5 degrees within reach. with no action, the world is on course to breach this crucial target by as early as 2030, compromising the very livability
7:03 am
of our planet. melting polar ice means global sea level rise is projected to be around ten centimetres more if we allow warming to go to two degrees. keeping it to 1.5 means 10 million fewer people would be exposed to the risks of flooding. but this plan is ambitious and it will be expensive. renewable energy sources will need to provide about 85% of global electricity by 2050. currently they account for about 25%. even with a green energy revolution, this most comprehensive assessment of the perils of climate change concludes that every one of us will need to make changes in we live our lives, changes that have to start now. victoria gill, bbc news. 20 people have died in a crash involving a stretch limousine. police say it's the worst road accident in the united states for almost a decade. all 18 of the people in the limousine were killed as well as two pedestrians.

lebo diseko reports. it's a day that should have been filled with celebration. instead, emergency services are at the scene of america's worst transportation accident in almost a decade. it's thought the 18 people in the limousine were on their way to a party when their car came off the road and hit two pedestrians. all of them died. 20 fatalities is just horrific. i've been on the board for 12 years and this is one of the biggest losses of life that we've seen in a long, long time. colgan air up at buffalo killed 50 people but this is the most deadly transportation accident in this country since february 2009. this is the junction where the crash happened. it's thought the limo failed to stop, veering out of control and ploughing into this cafe. i heard this a loud bang, i came out and saw a lot of people up here at the apple barrel out in the parking lot and then i heard screaming.
7:05 am
i walked up and i could see this large van, very unusual—looking vehicle for out here in schoharie, in the bushes and really wrecked. it had hit a tree. there are reports that four sisters are among the dead. i don't know how to say it, you can't wrap your head around such a tragedy where you have four of your daughters die. it's still not clear why the driver apparently lost control or the exact cause of the accident. investigators are expected to be on the ground for at least five days. the victims won't be a officially named until all of their families are informed. lebo diseko, bbc news. the organisers of the cardiff half marathon say they will carry out a review after two competitors died in yesterday's race. the two men, who have not been named but were in their 205 and 305, collapsed at the finishing line.

look at those crowds. they are absolutely stunning. the giants and the crowds as well. back to our main story this morning, scientists warn that rapid changes are needed to reverse the damage being done by global warming. they're calling on governments to do more if we're to stop global temperatures from rising by more than 1.5 degrees celsius. at the moment, they say the world is completely off track, heading instead towards three celsius. the report's lead author is heleen de coninck, and shejoins us now from the south korean city of incheon. this is our wide—ranging report. give us an idea for viewers, if you
7:10 am
would, what happens if we don't manage to stick to 1.5? the report warns that the difference between 1.5 and two degrees is an increase of weather extremes. more often an ice free arctic ocean and north pole. more sea level rise of by ten centimetres by which at least 10 million people would be affected and more of those kind of climate impacts. it makes a big difference between the 1.5 and two degrees. you are calling for a strong and immediate response from government. are you optimistic you will get that? we are just scientists assessing the state of science in this report. in the report, we put together the science of climate change at the moment. what we are
7:11 am
indicating is that if we want to stay below 1.5 celsius, certain actions would need to happen in the next few decades, and as soon as possible. that is what we are saying. it would notjust big government that would have to take action, it is individuals, financial institutions, people, companies, there would have to work together to make it happen. we can't see it happening without that sort of collaboration internationally and within nations, going forward. we are assessing the science and putting it forward is towards the policymakers as well is that governments and they will have two see what to do with it. and in your analysis of the science, you believe this needs to be a real wake—up call? what we are saying is basically if we still want to stay below 1.5 celsius and prevent all
7:12 am
those impacts, we would have to reduce our emissions very quickly. we would have to have a net zero emissions by 2050 which is earlier than at two degrees path. in that sense, we are calling out that these emissions reductions will need to happen very soon and therefore the conditions that enable those reductions will also have to be put in place very soon. and do you think, we are talking about fundamental changes. as scientists, how would you put this? is this an emergency? how would you categorise it? we are trying to indicate what would happen if you would go for 1.5 to two degrees and what impact would be and we are trying to indicate what it would mean in terms of measures taken what it would mean in terms of measures ta ken and what it would mean in terms of measures taken and technologies deployed and fuels used in the energy sector. an example is, for
7:13 am
instance, by 2050, we would use almost no call any more globally which is a major change can —— compare to the current energy system. we would see an increase in renewable energy which would mean we would need to take investment away from the fossil fuel sector and put them into renewable energy and energy efficiency measures. if we cannot make that happen, we will lose this 1.5 c limit. you talked about it being impersonal as well, individuals. are you making changes? —— personal as well. individuals. are you making changes? -- personal as well. personally, i am trying to do everything i can in my private life. living without a car, cycling a lot, not eating meat. i think it is up to everybody to see what they can do and what they feel co mforta ble what they can do and what they feel comfortable with. it has to be a collaboration between individuals,
7:14 am
communities, companies, governments and international organisations and financial institutions. we need all signs to work together. —— sides. every individual will have to do their share. also, in the current systems, you are not as individuals currently unable to do that so that would also have to change. thank you very much. lots to think about. electric cars. i have had a a lot of conversations with my friends about that. insulating your home is. gas and central heating. we are having a big discussion on it at about 8:40. you have made some changes? let us know. carol is up on the roof in london. a chilly start to the day on
7:15 am
the roof. the lowest temperatures are still in kent. the south—east generally has the lowest but in kent, roughly between 2—4. for much of the rest of the country this morning, temperatures either in the high single figures or into double figures. rain in the forecast, not just today but the next couple of daysin just today but the next couple of days in northern ireland and scotland. looking at today, we do have that rain, reining in parts of scotla nd have that rain, reining in parts of scotland through the weekend. more for you today, tonight, tomorrow before clearing on wednesday and that might lead to some issues so there were. for the rest of the uk, we will start to see sunny spells developing if you don't have them already —— so beware. the weather front is producing this rain and it is wiggling north and south so some of it could get into northern england at times through the day. away from the rain in the north and west and northern ireland, you can see a bit getting into the east of scotland, but as we come south for england and wales, there's cloud
7:16 am
around this morning, a few showers in wales that'll be on and off the through the day but for many, sunny spells developing. windy in the north of the country, breezy in the south with temperatures ranging from about ten in the north to around 18 as we go down to the south. through this evening and overnight, we will still hang on to the rain in parts of scotla nd still hang on to the rain in parts of scotland and also northern ireland. for england and for wales, clear spells forming, variable amounts of cloud again and patchy mist and fog possibly forming in the south. temperature—wise, most are staying in double figures. in rural areas, of course, temperatures are lower than those you can see on the screen. lower than those you can see on the screen. any mist and fog tomorrow in the south of england will lift quite quickly, and again for england and wales, another dry day with sunny spells. for northern ireland and scotland, we still have that pesky front so it's still going to be cloudy and wet with some rain. temperature—wise, up a touch on today. we're looking again at the

mid—teens to the low 205, maybe 20 or 21 mid—teens to the low 205, maybe 20 or21 in the mid—teens to the low 205, maybe 20 or 21 in the south—east. any mist and fog forming overnight on tuesday into wednesday will lift quite rapidly, the wind becomes more of a southerly and that will push the weather front away from the north—west of scotland and most will have a dry day. maybe a bit of mist longley east coasts of scotland and england, but away from that it will be sunny and we're looking at temperatures of around 18 and 23 and 24 in the south—east —— along the east coasts. the average for scotla nd east coasts. the average for scotland and northern ireland, 12 or 13, in england and wales, 13 or 14, so we 13, in england and wales, 13 or 14, so we above 13, in england and wales, 13 or 14, so we above average 13, in england and wales, 13 or 14, so we above average for this time of year. if you like it warmer, it won't last, and the end of the week is looking unsettled with an atla ntic low is looking unsettled with an atlantic low coming our way. the where the atlantic low! we have been warned already! —— there were. —— beware. let's take a look at some
7:18 am
of the front pages. the times leads with a claim that brexiteers within the conservative party have warned the prime minister that she can keep britain within eu customs arrangements until 2022 at the latest. the picture is of 2 dogs who attended the wooferendum dog march in central london yesterday. the telegraph says police are setting targets to investigate fewer than half of all reported crimes. they also have a picture of sean walsh and katya jones who apologised to their partners after being seen kissing outside a pub! if you don't know, they are a partnership in strictly this year. the metro leads with the deaths of two runners at a half marathon in cardiff yesterday. and the daily mirror splashes on the apologies issued by strictly come dancing contestant, seann walsh, and his dance partner, katya jones, after they were photographed kissing outside a pub. 0ne one other thing, i mentioned earlier that dad jokes are making a return in the papers, one more? people say they are safe and cringeworthy in a
7:19 am
world of nastiness, a new age of nastiness. they are nice jokes. good clea n nastiness. they are nice jokes. good clean fun. what do you call a pile of cat squirrel i don't know. a meeowtain. that is quite cute! -- what do you call a pile of cats? i don't know. let's get an update on this morning's business stories now, vic's got the latest for us. iam going i am going to start with 5g but not as you know it! good morning. in future, you could download an hd film to your phone in a matter of seconds but here's the catch, 5g enabled phones are not on the market, how much will this cost? we will talk about this in half an hour. too many apprentices aren't getting the training they deserve
7:20 am
according to the education committee and its calling on the government to give a quality assurance mark on training schemes to help young people choose employers to support and develop them properly. more tax for tech firms. paypal has agreed to pay an extra £3.1 million in tax following a review by the tax man. last week you might remember the chancellor, philip hammond, raised the prospect of new taxes on large tech firms. they are frequently criticised for moving sales through other countries in order to pay less tax here. plenty more on the 5g story in half an hour. see you soon. thanks, we will look forward to that. thanks for being with us. you're watching breakfast on the bbc. most workplaces have someone who is trained in medicalfirst aid, but who would you go to for help with your mental health? the government's former mental health champion natasha devon wants to see businesses improve their help and support, and is calling on parliament to improve its legislation. her campaign found that 86%
7:21 am
of us think that mental health is one of the biggest challenges facing the country today. more than a third of people said they were more stressed now than they were a couple of years ago. the health and safety executive, which regulates welfare in the workplace, says that 12.5 million days are lost to depression or anxiety each year. 5 and a recent independent review found that mental ill—health has an annual cost to the economy of an estimated £99 billion. mental health campaigner natasha devon is in our london newsroom this morning. thank you so much for... spending a bit of time talking to us about this this morning, many view as i'm sure we'll be interested to know what a mental health first aid is, how would that work? i'm an instructor for mental health first aid england, so for mental health first aid england, so i'm qualified to train first
7:22 am
aiders. you learn three steps, the first is spot the early signs and symptoms for the six most common mental health difficulties, depression, anxiety, eating disorders, suicide, self—harm and psychosis and the second part is knowing what to say to a colleague and crucially what not to say, the right questions to ask an language to use. then thirdly you need to signpost them and point them in the direction of support, help and advice and you get a manual that gives you suggestions for support groups, charities and websites. if you live in an area where the waiting lists for nhs care is long that the menu get other ideas. you've been through a long training course, what shouldn't you say to someone course, what shouldn't you say to someone who course, what shouldn't you say to someone who comes to course, what shouldn't you say to someone who comes to you and says they're struggling with mental health in some way? if it is something they could overcome if
7:23 am
they put their mind to it. it could be worse or pull yourself together or at least it's not cancer. these are things i believe are well meant, because they are designed to cheer you up, but what we have to understand is mental health and physical health are basically the same. mental health issues don't have to stop you from being a reliable employee if you're given the right support. it is that support that is crucial. the government has been talking about parity between mental and physical health since 2011, i really think it's time for them to put their money where their mouth is. is there still a big need for that cultural change? many people watching this morning would think if i went into my workplace and i told my colleague or my boss i was struggling with a mental health issue, that would affect the way they look at me and the way they thought i was able to do myjob. how much of that is still a problem? there is still a lot of stigma. the majority of my work is
7:24 am
in schools and colleges, work with 13 —18—year—olds and increasingly i'm hearing there's an understanding with young people about mental health, much less stigma, although it still exists in that age group, but they're saying their parents are struggling to be heard and understood, which is why i created this workplace campaign, because it's a way of accessing adults. 0n this workplace campaign, because it's a way of accessing adults. on a mental health first aid course you learn we all exist somewhere in a spectrum of mental health, in the same way as physical health, it's a commonsense approach and i think parachuting a commonsense approach and i think pa rachuting a couple commonsense approach and i think parachuting a couple of people into a workplace have that common sense understanding will change workplace culture. what if someone is thinking i'm an employer, can't afford to implement those changes, how costly is it? it costs about £300 to train one of your staff in mental health first aid but as you said in your introduction, we know time taken for
7:25 am
mental ill—health represents the biggest cost to uk businesses in the british economy, so you will make that money back in no time at all. to emphasise, all we are asking for is parity. if your business is so small that there is no obligation on you to have a regular first aider, there is no obligation on you to have a mental health first aider either. thank you very much, interesting to hear. let us know what you think about that, mental health first aiders, that could make a difference to you or someone you know. let us know. you can email us at bbcbrea kfast@bbc. co. uk. that was really helpful when she said what not to say. always handy to know how not to put your foot in it. being told to pull it together if you are feeling incapable of doing that is not helpful at all. as she said! let us know what you think! still to come on breakfast: we'll be meeting the men who're demonstrating that you're never too old to learn how to cook. we will also be talking about the

first episode in the new series of doctor who with jodie first episode in the new series of doctor who withjodie whittaker at the helm, and graham norton will be here later as well. had you forgotten that graham norton was coming? sorry, i knew you were coming? sorry, i knew you were coming in! who? i have read his book and everything! time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning, i'm asad ahmed. undercover police have been testing hotel staff in london to see if they can spot signs of child exploitation. officers have spent a week attempting to check into rooms accompanied by a young person while brandishing bottles of alcohol. the metropolitan police want hotels to contact them if they suspect exploitation, but scotland yard has said family hotels in london spotted the signs during their tests. another school in east london will stay closed today because of the false widow spiders.
7:27 am
monega primary school in newham will with the infestation of spiders, which are about the size of a 50p piece. it's the sixth school in that part of london to close. the false widows cause painful swelling, but one arachnid expert has told bbc london that closing schools is an overreaction. two teenagers are in custody after four officers were injured in islington when they broke up a fight at the weekend. another was injured. police were called to an address on liverpool road and were confronted by a man with a large knife. 0ne officer remains in hospital. he's being treated for significant facial injuries. dame barbara's husband, scott, plans to run the marathon himself. dame barbara windsor has urged people to run the 2019 london marathon in aid of a campaign to raise money and change attitudes towards dementia. the 81—year—old former eastenders and carry on actress was diagnosed with alzheimer's in 2014. dame barbara's husband, scott, plans to run the marathon himself. she was born in shoreditch in east london. let's take a look at this morning's travel situation now. if we look at the tube board, it's a good service on all lines.
7:28 am
out on the roads, let me remind you that drivers in woolwich and silvertown, there is no woolwich ferry until the new year. the boats are being replaced and other work is being carried out too. it's having a knock—on effect on the blackwall tunnel as well. a road closure between erith roundabout and lower road because of a fatal hit—and—run where a 60—year—old cyclist has died this morning. the road will be closed for the rest of the morning. let's look at the weather forecast today with kate. good morning. a lovely bright start this morning. lots of sunshine around through the course of the day and temperatures are feeling a little warmer and the temperatures are set to rise in fact over the next few days. now, for today, the sunshine could turn hazy from time to time. we have a bit of high cloud popping up here and there. temperatures today warmer than yesterday with a max of 18. 0vernight tonight, the wind is very light, we'll get some clear spells. we could see a little bit of mist forming by dawn tomorrow morning. the minimum temperature not especially cold, somewhere between 8—10 celsius. a lovely bright start again tomorrow morning.
7:29 am
plenty of sunshine through the course of tuesday, and temps are getting a little bit warmer. by the end of tomorrow, we're looking at temperatures back up above 20 celsius. now, for wednesday, the wind will start to strengthen, a great day to get the washing out on the line if that's possible, as temperatures could get up to 23, potentially 24 celsius. things looking a littble bit more unsettled, though, as we head towards the end of the week. not bad temperatures until friday. that's it for now. vanessa feltz has her breakfast show on bbc radio london. in 20 minutes she will have a newspaper review with jock, doctor raj passod. —— with doctor raj passod. hello, this is breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. here's a summary of this morning's main stories from bbc news. scientists have given one of the starkest warnings yet about the changes needed to tackle climate change. the report by the intergovernmental panel on climate change says that limiting temperature rises to no more
7:30 am
than 1.5 celsius will require massive changes to the way we live. it warns that without action, there could be severe consequences for the global population and natural world. the report was released overnight in incheon in south korea. our environment correspondent matt mcgrath is there. really important changes we keep being told that need to be made. how feasible is it for governments, families, individuals, to make these changes? that is a good question. the report has obviously been commissioned by governments and been given to governments and the thrust of it is to get governments to take significant actions such as cutting carbon emissions over the next 12 yea rs by carbon emissions over the next 12 years by essentially 50% and essentially getting rid of most of our carbon producing elements by
7:31 am
2050. it is notjust about government. the report is at pains to point out it is about individuals and businesses as well and the things people can do in their lifestyles to make changes. in some respects, scientists want people to make those changes so that governments can take some steps. 0ver governments can take some steps. over the last 20 years, governments have gone slowly on the question of climate change and the scientists are saying that we need to ramp up the action very quickly if we have any chance of staying below 1.5 celsius. thank you very much for that. lots of people getting in touch about that this morning. do continue to send those messages in and what we will do is try and collect some of those and discuss it a bit later. 20 people have died in a limousine crash in what police are calling the united states' deadliest road accident in almost a decade. the accident, which took place in new york state, killed all 18 of the people in the limousine, as well as two pedestrians. there are reports that the victims included four sisters.
7:32 am
the cause of the crash is unclear. the organisers of the cardiff half—marathon say they will carry out a review after two competitors died in yesterday's race. the two men, who have not been named but were in their 205 and 305, collapsed at the finishing line. they are believed to have suffered heart attacks. the organisers say they were both given medical treatment at the scene, before being taken to hospital where they died. more than a third of girls have been harassed in public while wearing school uniform, according to a new report. the children's charity plan international uk, surveyed more than a thousand teenagers and young women. two—thirds of girls also said they have experienced unwanted attention in public. the charity's calling on bystanders to challenge harassment when they see it. japan's prime minister has said that the uk would be welcomed into the trans—pacific trade partnership with open arms, post brexit. the tpp is made up of 11 countries, also including australia, canada and mexico. shinzo abe also said that he hoped the uk and eu would avoid a hard brexit. a competition to build the highest
7:33 am
and most complex human tower has taken place in the spanish city of tarragona. 42 teams took part, watched by thousands of spectators. building human towers is a tradition in catalonia, going back to the 18th century. the winners of yesterday's event took home the first prize of 14,000 pounds, with some of the towers reaching 12 metres in height. a child has to climb to the summit and raise their hand to indicate that the tower is complete — but even then it's only considered a success if everyone gets off without it collapsing. that was a very tentative raising of
7:34 am
the arm. 12 metres. that is danger. this is another team. it's absolutely amazing. glad to see they have all got detected headgear. —— protective. it is quite an achievement. it would be quite a rush of adrenaline. it certainly would be. you wouldn't want to be the one that wobbled too much. or if you sneezed. if you got an itch! you need somebody with a big scratcher at the bottom. what is yourjob? i
7:35 am
am the official scratcher. look at mo farah's face. he has got the best smile. there is a clue in that metal. —— medal. it was little more than a year ago that mo farah decided to switch from track to road — and this was only his third race over the marathon distance — but he broke the european record with victory in chicago. patrick gearey reports. from track to tarmac, mo farah isn't slowing down. he's still new to road running. chicago is only the third marathon he had ever run and yet he has already set a faster time than any european in history. of course, farah's used to leading the way. he's britain's most successful track athlete with four olympic gold medals over distance. but clearly, he felt he wasn't running far enough so last year, he moved to the streets. in london, he broke the british record and finished third. since then, farah's been trying to push that pace still faster. as with most of his career,
7:36 am
that means time away from home so the finish line in chicago was also the scene of a family reunion with his wife tanya. i haven't seen them for a little while, i've been in training camp for the last two months. i want to just go back to london and see my kids and spend some time with them. then think about what the next step is. hopefully, maybe the world champs and other stuff, i'm not sure. the farahs might have to put up without mo around for a while longer. he's planning to return to the olympics in two years as a marathon runner. he will be 37 in tokyo but then he's spent a lifetime trying to beat time. let's have a look at how fa rah‘s performance ranks. his winning time in chicago was more than 3.5 minutes slower than the world record set in berlin last month by kenya's eliud kipchoge. it doesn't even make the top ten quickest marathon times. but it is faster than the olympic record set in beijing 10 years ago, so if he could repeat his time in tokyo in two years, he'd stand a good chance of winning gold. it was one of the most
7:37 am
eagerly—anticipated football matches of the season, but liverpool and manchester city could only produce a goalless draw at anfield. city's record signing riyadh mahrez had the best chance to score a winner but he was off target from the penalty spot. city are top of the table, though, ahead of chelsea and liverpool on goal difference. chelsea won 3—0 at southampton — eden hazard taking his league tally to seven. but their boss maurizio sarri doesn't believe chelsea are quite good enough to challenge manchester city or liverpooljust yet. i think exactly what i thought one week ago. that city and liverpool are a step ahead of us and so now
7:38 am
we are working and we are trying to cover the gap. just look at this wonderful team move from arsenal, in their 5—1 win at fulham — nine passes took the ball from one penalty area to the other with aaron ramsey making an early bid for goal of the season. that's arsenal's ninth win in a row. the former chelsea and england captain john terry has retired from football. he's the club's most decorated player, and he won 78 caps for his country, but he's 37 years old now and he's been without a club since leaving aston villa in the summer. could he be looking for a coaching or manager job? watch could he be looking for a coaching or managerjob? watch this space. it's a topsy—turvy season in the scottish premiership and the leaders hearts have been beaten for the first time in 13 matches. it was rangers who did the damage, winning 3—1 at ibrox.
7:39 am
hearts are now two points clear of hibs at the top of the table, with celtic one more point behind. the champions moved up with their first away win of the season. james forrest hadn't scored in the league so far but he put away four goals in half an hour, as they won 6—0 at stjohnstone. london broncos will return to super league after five years away, thanks to victory in the million pound game. toronto wolfpack were the favourites to win in canada but it was a really cagey match — no tries and only three goals, jarrod sammut scoring both for the broncos, who won by 4 points to 2. enable, ridden by frankie dettori, has become the first british—trained horse to win europe's richest race twice. she won the prix de l'arc de triomphe at longchamp in paris for the second year in a row. enable is trained by john gosden in newmarket. it was dettori's sixth victory in the race. a broken gearbox didn't stop world champion sebastian 0gier
7:40 am
from winning the british rally title for the fifth time. the frenchman was way down the field but he clawed his way back to win in llandudno and reignite his bid for a sixth world crown. with two rounds to go, he'sjust seven points behind leader thierry neuville. the 12 young thai footballers who were dramatically rescued from a flooded cave this year, have been guests of honour in buenos aires for the opening weekend of the youth olympic games. the wild boars, which includes boys aged 11—17, were invited to play against the junior team of one of argentina's most famous clubs, river plate. they also watched a roller speed—skating event, visited the athletes' village and had lunch with the international olympic committee president thomas bach. they were invited to the world cup
7:41 am
final. they weren't well enough to go. they were still being treated. they couldn't go to that. great for them to get back and get playing as well. thank you. the scottish national party leader nicola sturgeon says her party would back a second brexit referendum — if it went to a vote in the house of commons. the snp party conference is currently taking place in glasgow, from where scotland's first ministerjoins us this morning. let's talk about what you said yesterday about another referendum. you said you would back that. i would like to know under what terms? are you thinking about a rerun of what happened in 2016, of that
7:42 am
referendum? i think that's one of the west and that will need to be resolved. precisely what the question in that would be. as we veer ever closer to question in that would be. as we veer ever closer to the end of march next year, the cliff edge, there is no detail at all about what the future relationship might be and they may not be any detail about the future relationship at the point of access. i do think if there is a proposal to give the people and other say, that is something that snp mp5 would back. that said, it won't necessarily resolve the issues —— resolves the issues that scotland face. we voted to remain and the rest of the uk voted to leave and yet we face expert. if there is another opportunity to reaffirm our desire to stay in the eu, i think we would take it. right, cellular talking about a rerun rather than a referendum on the terms of the deal. —— right, so, you are talking about. widowed yet know whether they will bea widowed yet know whether they will be a deal. i'm not trying to dodge
7:43 am
that question —— we do not know. what i think is a slightly bigger possibility is what people have started to turn a blind deal where there is a withdrawal agreement without sufficient detail on the future relationship. we need to work out what comes out in this phase of negotiation before anybody would be as definitive about what the terms will be. as first minister of scotland, which voted 62% to remain, standing and matter of months away from being taken out of the eu regardless of that with no detail of what the future relationship would be, it is no doubt it will be surprising. i will be keen to allow scotla nd surprising. i will be keen to allow scotland another opportunity to stay in the eu. white know. —— at this point, and i imagine you answer might be the same, what would be snp
7:44 am
do unto reason may‘s deal if she gets one? -- theresa may. it is not an option without damage to the economy but it is the least damaging if the uk is leaving the eu. i can't envisage the snp mp5, given that we are ina envisage the snp mp5, given that we are in a country that voters so strongly to remain, voting for anything that doesn't at least keep the uk in the single market and customs union. beyond that, we need to see what comes out of this phase of negotiations. what i think it's very important, though, and i am not a member of the house of commons, i think it is important that the house of commons doesn't find itself in a position of choosing between the fire and the frying pan of allowing the prime minister to say, well, here is a bad deal or here is a blind deal and you need to accept it because the only alternative is no
7:45 am
deal. if that is the situation, the house of commons should assert itself and put out sensible options like the single market customs union back on the table. luke and i have tried to get this happening. extending article 50. that fire or the frying pan can't be the options. you have also talked about the possibility of a second independence referendum and you said you would give timings on that. when will you give timings on that. when will you give timings? isaidi i said i would do that, i said this not the summer just i said i would do that, i said this not the summerjust passed but the previous summer, about this current stage of negotiations, i thought it would be this month, october, but now it looks like it might stretch to november. win this phase of negotiation ends, this month, next, whenever, i don't know because i'm not in charge of that timescale, i
7:46 am
will set out at that stage what i think the next steps for scotland should be given our circumstances at that time. i want to talk about climate change, there's a report out today that is really calling for strong government and fundamental changes to be made to keep temperatures down. the scottish government, how much of a priority is bad for you? what specifically are you doing to tackle this? -- is that for use. it's a massive priority, the actions the scottish government have taken already have been described by the un as exemplary —— is that for you. we set targets for reduction of emissions for 2020 and we're already ahead of those targets and are toughening them up. we introduced recently new legislation to the scottish parliament that would make scotland carbon neutral by 2050, and also, as soon as carbon neutral by 2050, and also, as soon as the science says it's possible to do, make scotland a net zero country in terms of emissions, not just carbon but
7:47 am
zero country in terms of emissions, notjust carbon but overall. we've been extremely successful indecarbonising electricity and we've been reasonably successful when it comes to waste, the big challenge for scotland and all countries is to replicate that success in other sectors, transport, heat and agriculture and we've got big ambitions to do that. i'm biased as first minister first minister of scotland, but it's no exaggeration, and many people in the world will agree with this, especially at the un, that scotland is a leader and had a's report is a reminder of our moral responsibility —— today's report. what differences have you made? i like to live my life in a way that is mindful of the environment in my home life. i don't pretend to be perfect. there are
7:48 am
still things i would like to do better. any leader saying that wouldn't be telling the truth. i accept that responsibility. as a leader it's myjob to set the overall policy framework that encourages people to do that. energy efficiency, for example, one of the areas, like transport, that impinges areas, like transport, that impinges a lot on individual behaviour, that's the big challenge for scotla nd that's the big challenge for scotland now. we've been very successful in renewable energy, decarbonising electricity, as i said, but the further down the road we go it impinges on our individual behaviour and we all have to live up to that obligation. nicola sturgeon, we have to leave it there. thanks very much. here's carol with a look at this morning's weather. you are in your big coat, carol, chile in london this morning?m you are in your big coat, carol, chile in london this morning? it is, dan. good morning. —— actually. the lowest temperatures are in the south—east, especially in kent —— actually. low double figures for most of. a
7:49 am
lot of rain in scotland over the weekend. a lot to come today, tomorrow before it clears on wednesday and i'm flagging it up because it could lead to issues. today we have that notjust in northern and western scotland but also ireland. the forecast for the rest of today is one of dry conditions, a few showers in wales and we're looking at sunny spells. the reason we have this rain is we've got a weather front, and that weather front is waving. weaklings north south taking its rain with it —— wiggling north and south. it might clip northern england but not much getting into northern scotland. it will be in northern ireland and northern and western scotland on and off through the day. further south, sunny skies to start the day, variable amounts of cloud and we should see sunshine developing. windy across the country today and breezy in the south, with temperatures ranging from roughly around ten in the far north to
7:50 am
around ten in the far north to around 18 in the far south. now, as we head through the evening and overnight, you will find we hang on to the rain across northern ireland and scotland, still windy here. for england and wales, some cloud around but equally, some breaks. we could see some patchy mist and fog forming in southern england. not a particularly cold night, most of us in towns and cities will stay in double figures. in rural areas, a bit lower. tomorrow we'll still have this rain across northern ireland and northern and western scotland through the day, some of that getting up over to the east, whereas for england and wales, the mist and fog patches lifting readily and another mostly dry day with sunny spells with temperatures are a touch on today. you could well hit 20 in any sunshine, feeling pleasant. as we go further north, temperatures will be that bit lower. roughly about 16, maybe 17. into will be that bit lower. roughly about16, maybe 17. into wednesday, any about16, maybe 17. into wednesday, a ny early about16, maybe 17. into wednesday, any early morning mist and fog will
7:51 am
lift and we could see some mist lapping on the shore on the east coast of scotland and england, but away from that, when we lose the rain from the north—west, the sun will come out and it's going to be a warm day with temperatures widely from the mid—to—high teens into the low to mid—twenties. that's pretty good for this stage in october. the average in scotland and northern ireland is roughly 12—13, whereas in england and wales, it's more like 14, possibly 15, depending on where you are. some seeing a good 10 degrees hike up, but i'm settled for the rest of the week. who is your camera operator today? we saw the phantom hand at the start of the weather report. i'm not going to name and shame, could have been anybody! very diplomatic. it could have been her hand! thank you, carol. ee has become the first mobile
7:52 am
operator to do a live trial of the next generation of mobile technology that allows you to download an hd film on your device in seconds. dan is very excited. victoria is here. the digital economy is a huge game—changer, so this could be huge. you could get football scores in the blink ofan you could get football scores in the blink of an eye and training videos for triathlons in a few seconds. most people use their mobile for much more than just making calls. today it's all about data, and that means that the mobile networks have had to keep developing new technology to meet growing demand. the first 3g network was launched in 2003. it offered a host of new services, things like video calling. but we didn't really make much use of it until we started getting smartphones and downloading apps. in 2012, the networks launched 4g, giving consumers the ability to stream music and watch videos. the future is 5g. it promises speeds of up to 100
7:53 am
times faster than youre used to on 4g, and it's ten times faster than home broadband. -- 4g. matthew howett is a telecoms expert from assembly research. this sounds fantastic, how can i get hold of it and how much will it cost me? both of those questions will be a while away to answer, we probably won't see a live 5g network probably mid 2019 and no full nationwide rollout until 2020. we can't use our existing handsets, we need a new handset capable of receiving a new sg handset capable of receiving a new 5g signal. samsung will be first next year but it's not expected and apple device will come until 2020, so apple device will come until 2020, so not any time soon. we need new devices but can we use the existing infrastructure, the existing masts
7:54 am
all over the country, but do we need new infrastructure? there's new infrastructure, the operators, not just ee, are busy putting up new agreement on to the masts you see nationwide to roll out 5g, and that process takes time, which is why they're starting early before the big launch in a couple of years. presumably they‘ re going big launch in a couple of years. presumably they're going to be focusing on cities where they have the most number of devices in any one area, but isn't that in danger of creating data black holes effectively for rural communities? all operators are keen to avoid this problem of blackspots we have at the moment, and vodafone for example talk about doing trials in the lake district, cornwall and hard to reach places so district, cornwall and hard to reach places so coverage district, cornwall and hard to reach places so coverage will be a priority for all operators to make sure it's not just priority for all operators to make sure it's notjust the cities that get the 5g technology. there's the airwaves that could get further distances to get to people in
7:55 am
buildings better and that could come down the line as well. it is faster, lots of people would say that's a good thing, but what else could this do? it's not like there will be so much more demand on the network by loads more people with smart phones, why are we gearing up to a 5g future? one of the things that will come out of these trials is the way people use the network. the operators struggled to charge us more money for 4g for a faster speed, that existed only briefly, and we aren't going to spend hundreds more for those speeds that are 100 times faster. what it will end up doing is supporting a whole range of use cases, things we haven't really got our head around yet, things like driverless cars. driverless ca rs yet, things like driverless cars. driverless cars could operate on 5g networks? that's one of the expectations, because the time it ta kes to expectations, because the time it takes to get from the car to the network would be so much shorter
7:56 am
that it could be reliable for communication. things like microwaves and watches?‘ communication. things like microwaves and watches? a whole range of connected devices, at home and around the country, it will be using that, not just and around the country, it will be using that, notjust the phone that we use today. fascinating and maybe a bit scary! matthew, thank you! i'm trying to take all that information in. i clearly need 5g in my head. game—changer. if you compare 4g to 5g, over a day on three g for a full hd film, seven minutes on 4g, and for —40 seconds on 5g. big changes. and on dial-up it would take about six weeks! you could make the film in less time! coming up later on breakfast: we'll be saying hello to a guest who's a friend to all the stars. graham norton will be swapping his own red sofa for ours, when he pops in to tell us about his new novel — an irish tale of love,
7:57 am
regret and family secrets. we will get him a special chair cause he's always on his chair on his show! time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning, i'm asad ahmed. dame barbara windsor has urged people to run the 2019 london marathon in aid of a campaign to raise money and change attitudes towards dementia. the 81—year—old former eastenders and carry on actress was diagnosed with alzheimer's in 2014. she was born in shoreditch in east london. support groundbreaking research to find a cure for a condition that affects so many people, like me. with your help, we can, and will, and dementia with research. great to see the brilliant dame barbara windsor speaking. dame barbara's husband, scott, plans to run the marathon himself. undercover police have been testing hotel staff in london to see
7:58 am
if they can spot signs of child exploitation. officers have spent a week attempting to check into rooms accompanied by a young person while brandishing bottles of alcohol. the metropolitan police want hotels to contact them if they suspect another school in east london will stay closed today of spiders, which are about the size of a 50p piece. it's the sixth school in that part of london to close. expert has told bbc london that closing schools is an overreaction. let's take a look at this morning's travel situation now. if we look at the tube board, it's a good service on all lines. out on the roads, let me remind drivers in woolwich and silvertown that there's no woolwich ferry until the new year. the boats are being replaced and other work is being carried out too. it's having a knock—on effect on the blackwall tunnel as well. a road closure between
7:59 am
erith roundabout and lower road because of a fatal hit—and—run where a 60—year—old cyclist has died this morning. police has died this morning. are appealing for information. the road will be closed for the rest of the morning. let's look at the weather forecast today with kate. good morning. a lovely bright start this morning. lots of sunshine around through the course of the day and temperatures are feeling a little warmer, and the temperatures are set to rise in fact over the next few days. now, for today, the sunshine could turn hazy from time to time. we have a bit of high cloud popping up here and there. temperatures today warmer than yesterday with a max of 18. 0vernight tonight, the wind is very light, we'll get some clear spells. we could see a little bit of mist forming by dawn tomorrow morning. the minimum temperature not especially cold, somewhere between 8—10 celsius. a lovely bright start again tomorrow morning. plenty of sunshine through the course of tuesday, and temps are getting a little bit warmer. by the end of tomorrow, we're looking at temperatures back up above 20 celsius. now, for wednesday, the wind
8:00 am
will start to strengthen, a great day to get the washing out on the line if that's possible, as temperatures could get up to 23, potentially 24 celsius. things looking a littble bit more unsettled, though, as we head towards the end of the week. not bad temperatures until friday. that's it for now. i'll be back in half an hour on bbc 0ne i'll be back in half an hour on bbc one and the news channel. vanessa feltz has her breakfast show on bbc radio london. good morning and welcome to breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. 0ur headlines today: a warning to the world. scientists say we will have to make drastic changes to the way we live if we are to tackle climate change. the worst road accident in the united states for a decade as all 18 people in a limousine and two pedestrians are killed. facebook has said this morning that it has tripled the amount of tax it pays in the uk. paypal and twitter have also announced a bigger tax bill here. i'll have more on whether digital firms are feeling the pressure to pay more.
8:01 am
mo farah wins a marathon for the first time at only his third attempt, breaking the european record along the way in chicago. and graham norton will be here telling us about his mum's stories and how they inspired his latest novel. good morning from the roof of the bbc in london where it is a chilly start to the day but a bright one. we will see sunny spells developing with a couple of showers but they will be the exception not the rule. but scotland and northern ireland, cloudy, wet and windy day ahead. it's monday october 8th. our top story: scientists have given one of the starkest warnings yet about the changes needed to tackle climate change. the report by the intergovernmental panel on climate change says that limiting temperature rises to no more than 1.5 celsius
8:02 am
will require massive changes to the way we live. it warns that without action, there could be severe consequences for the global population and natural world. we will see more people in poverty, we will see more people going hungry, we will see livelihoods in many parts of the developing world threatened because of impacts on agricultural systems, ecosystems and crops. so there are substantial costs from not acting on climate change. the report was released overnight in incheon in south korea our science editor david shukman is there. this is quite an in—depth report and quite shocking. that's right. it is a big surprise. for many years, the timei a big surprise. for many years, the time i have been covering this subject, we'll thought that if global warming took the average devil to other couple of degrees it would be pretty safe and it would be only if we went beyond that to a higher temperature that the really bad effects of global warming would
8:03 am
kick in, perhaps later this century. new research says that if you go above1.5 new research says that if you go above 1.5 degrees, as you mentioned, all the unpleasant things we were talking about start to kick in. in other words, sooner than anyone expected. not on some distant horizon at the back end of this century, but perhaps in the 20305 or 20405. that is quite a shock to the political system. for a long time governments have wondered if they can look at this topic and say it is for down the track and we don't need to ta ke for down the track and we don't need to take it too seriously right now. this report might change that view. it is calling for real change, calling for leadership. what sort of thing will actually make a difference? well, it is on almost every front. if you think that modern society and the way our economies work relies on fossil fuels, oil, gas, coal, and you burn those things and release carbon dioxide, a gas that warms the
8:04 am
atmosphere and lingers there for hundreds of years. what scientists are saying is if you want to tackle this, limit the scale of global warming, keeping it to a safe level, you have got to really change everything you do. everything from your diet, eating less meat. thinking about how you commute to work. can you do it in a low carbon way? do you have to drive? could you use public transport or walked or cycle ? h ow use public transport or walked or cycle? how we get around generally in society. how industry works and how power stations generate electricity. they will need to be working with wind and solar in about 30 years, which is a phenomenal prospect. now whether anyone can actually bring this scale of change about, it is impossible to know. but this report will land on the desks of governments around the world and it is up to them to decide what to do. david shukman, thank you. 20 people have died in a crash involving a stretch limousine. police say it's the worst road
8:05 am
accident in the united states for almost a decade. all 18 of the people in the limousine were killed, as well as two pedestrians. labo diseko reports. it's a day that should have been filled with celebration. instead, emergency services are at the scene of america's worst transportation accident in almost a decade. it's thought the 18 people in the limousine were on their way to a party when their car came off the road and hit two pedestrians. all of them died. this is one of the biggest losses of life that we've seen in a long, long time. the most deadly transportation accident in this country since february of 2009. this is the junction where the crash happened. it's thought the limo failed to stop, veering out of control and ploughing into this cafe.
8:06 am
i don't know how to say it, you can't wrap your head around such a tragedy where you have four of your daughters die. they were very smart and they were beautiful and they lived life to the fullest. i don't know what to tell you accept they were the best means that anyone could have. it's still not clear why the driver apparently lost control or the exact cause of the accident. investigators are expected to be on the ground for at least five days. the victims won't be a officially named until all of their families are informed. lebo diseko, bbc news. the organisers of the cardiff half—marathon say they will carry out a review after two competitors died in yesterday's race. the two men, who have not been named, were in their 205 and 305, and collapsed at the finishing line. they are believed to have suffered heart attacks. the organisers say they were both given medical treatment at the scene, before being taken to hospital where they died. facebook has said this morning
8:07 am
that it has tripled the amount of tax it pays in the uk. paypal and twitter have also announced bigger tax bills too. victoria is here. are they responding to pressure or hmrc pressing harder? we know who will claim the pros —— credit for this. the chancellor philip hammond were saying that we cannot reach agreement in the uk we will go it alone with a digital services tax. so lo and behold next week we find out that facebook is paying triple the amount of tax it was playing in the amount of tax it was playing in the previous year. lots of the big tech firms have been criticised in the past were looking like they are dodging taxes, shall we say? they are doing it legitimately, by funnelling their sales through overseas subsidiaries, meaning they pay lower rates of tax and other countries. but lots of people are saying that is not what they should do and they should book the sales in the country in which they happen and
8:08 am
therefore pay tax in those countries. facebookjust therefore pay tax in those countries. facebook just filed therefore pay tax in those countries. facebookjust filed its accounts. 15 million it is now paying in tax and twitter saying it is paying 2.4 million in tax, up from 815,000 the year before. we also heard from paypal as well, paying an extra £3.1 million in tax. so this will hurt. this is happening ata time so this will hurt. this is happening at a time when some of their profits are coming under pressure as well. lots of people concerned about privacy concerns and that is hitting the tech firms as well so they are being squeezed at both ends at the moment. interesting. thank you. the authorities in china have said that they're holding the worldwide head of interpol on suspicion of corruption, and allegations of bribery. interpol says it's received the resignation of meng hongwei who hadn't been seen for the past fortnight. earlier our china correspondentjohn sudworth told us it's the latest high—profile disappearance in the country, including a number of government officials, billionaires and celebrities. we've had confirmation from china
8:09 am
that he is being held here. he travelled back from lyon in france to china a few days ago and was reported missing, whereabouts unknown. last night, china confirmed that it is holding him. what is significant, though, is that the announcement came not from a senior prosecutor or a court of law, it came from china's central commission for disciplinary inspection. that is the notorious, shadowy, internal communist party body charged with prosecuting xijinping's crackdown on corruption. there are serious concerns about the rights of people that disappear into that legal black hole. 0ne telling bit of detail — in the press conference his wife gave in lyon last night, she gave us a glimpse of the precarious life of a senior communist party official in china. she said the first she knew that her husband was in danger on arrival back in china was that he sent her a single text message
8:10 am
containing a single emoticon. the emoticon of a knife. 40% of young people are said to be unable to afford to buy the cheapest homes in their area, even if they have managed to save a 10% deposit. the institute for fiscal studies says house prices in england have risen steeply over the past two decades. ministers are thought to be considering a tax break to help long—term tenants to buy their home. more than a third of girls have been harassed in public while wearing school uniform, according to a new report. the children's charity plan international uk surveyed more than a thousand teenagers and young women. two—thirds of girls also said they have experienced unwanted attention in public. the charity's calling on bystanders to challenge harassment when they see it. over a million people turned out in liverpool to bid farewell to the giants, a street theatre show put on by a french arts company. the event, called liverpool's dream, involved a giant man figure, a boy and a dog called cholo moving
8:11 am
through the streets over four days. it was the giants' final worldwide appearance. and my goodness, what a spectacle it was. spectacular and amazing. the crowds are huge. it is 8:12am and this is breakfast. good morning. 0ur main story today: climate scientists say far reaching changes will be needed to keep global temperatures under control. but it will require massive changes in almost everything we do, from the food we eat, to the way we generate energy. professor corinne le quere is from the committee on climate change and joins us from norwich. thank you for coming on the programme and giving us some more information on this. is the uk government on course to meet their targets ? government on course to meet their targets? at the moment the emissions in the uk are decreasing, but we are not on course to meet our intermediate targets that are set
8:12 am
for 2030. the success in the uk has beenin for 2030. the success in the uk has been in the power generation. so we have succeeded in moving towards renewable energy. but the efforts in the rest of the economy are really lagging behind in the uk at the moment. so a lot more could be done to fill the gaps in addressing climate change. we are talking about government level and there are also things for businesses to do. what about families and individuals watching bbc breakfast this morning? what changes should we be making and will that make an impact? if you look at an individual level, yes, it would make an impact. you can look at the emissions and transport, the way we transport ourselves around. we are now driving more miles in bigger cars that are less efficient. if you can change that for yourself, make the right choices, look at the
8:13 am
way you go to work, use walking and cycling if you work in a city, which is all adding cycling if you work in a city, which is alladding up cycling if you work in a city, which is all adding up to tangible actions. you can also look at the way you heat your homes and the things that you eat. eat healthily, thatis things that you eat. eat healthily, that is also good for the environment. there is a range of actions and that is really what the reported saying. that to tackle climate change, the absolute limit that we can achieve at the moment, the changes have got to take place in all of our activities across the economy. paint as the picture. if we don't make the changes at all levels of society, what will the world look like that we live in in, say, 2050? the impact grows the more we wait. the impact grows the more we wait. the report highlights for the first timea the report highlights for the first time a lot of detail about how the impacts accumulate through time. in the line of fire now our ecosystems,
8:14 am
particularly coral reefs, and the arctic, sea ice, and coastal environments, which are particularly susceptible to flooding from sea—level rise. the impacts grow through time. and what we need to do to tackle climate change is the same for higher levels of warming. the more we wait, the more the impacts will grow and we will have to deal with adapting and dealing with the impacts themselves. plenty to think about this morning. professor, thank you for your time. and thank you to eve ryo ne you for your time. and thank you to everyone who has sent us messages today about the changes you have made or the ones you are thinking about making in the future. we will be discussing it in more detail in half an hour. now let's catch up on the weather. we know it is cold out there and carol is feeling it. good morning. you are right. it is called across the southeast this morning but the rest of us are already in low double figures. we have a lot of
8:15 am
cloud across the uk, some of which is producing rain. the forecast for todayis is producing rain. the forecast for today is rain across northern ireland and also northern and western scotland in particular. here it is rather windy. for england and wales we are starting off on a fairly cloudy note. some showers across the north of england and wales but we will see sunny spells developing. the reason for the rain is that we have got a weather front moving north and south. some of that rain could get into northern england for example. not much in eastern scotland. what you do get will not be as heavy as in the west. for england and wales after the cloudy start, brighter breaks developed and some of us already have them with sunshine coming through. sunshine on and off across wales and the same across england where we don't have the rain. when the across the north of scotla nd the rain. when the across the north of scotland and windy generally in scotla nd of scotland and windy generally in scotland and northern ireland but further south, progressively the winds get lighter and just a breeze in the cells. temperatures ranging from about ten in the north to 17 or
8:16 am
18 in the south. 0vernight we hang on to the windy conditions in northern ireland and scotland. for england a fair amount of cloud and maybe some drizzle. when the cloud brea ks maybe some drizzle. when the cloud breaks in the south, there could be patchy mist and fog forming. temperatures in double figures in towns and figures and a bit lower in rural areas. as we start tomorrow, any mistand rural areas. as we start tomorrow, any mist and fog that has formed will lift rapidly and for england and wales it will be another mostly dry day with a fair bit of sunshine. for scotland and northern ireland, you will hang on to the rain and also quite windy. temperatures picking up. if you are in the rain it will not feel particularly special. if you are in the sunshine it will feel pleasant for this time of year with high temperatures up to 20. on wednesday, any mist and fog that we start with will lift rapidly and there could be missed lingering
8:17 am
on the east coast of scotland and england. the rain will push away from the north west and the sunshine comes out and it will be a largely dry day and warm for october. a range of temperatures from the mid—teens to the mid 205. when you think about it in scotland and northern ireland, the average temperature at this stage in october is roughly 12 or 13. in england and wales, 14 or 15, though some of us are looking five to 10 degrees warmer than it should be. it all changes and becomes more unsettled at the end of the week. thank you. we will see you in half an hour. plenty to discuss. for a moment on saturday evening, it looked like manchester united managerjose mourinho was 30 minutes away from losing his job. but even the man himself says their dramatic turnaround won't be enough to stop the speculation about his future. 0ne place where you'll be able to hear plenty more about that, and the other big sporting stories, is the award—winning 5live podcast savage, flintoff and the ping pong guy. robbie savage is with us now,
8:18 am
along with the ping pong guy, better known as matthew syed. which is better known? neither! my profile has been transformed by being on this poor —— pod cast. profile has been transformed by being on this poor -- pod cast. he is on the piers morgan's show. he is not! he is revising the topics for today's pod cast. does he revise? 0ne today's pod cast. does he revise? one thing! today's pod cast. does he revise? one thing i have learned a lot from it is that people might say that robbie is a broadcaster who doesn't have a huge amount of talent, and i would say... no! the professionalism is incredible. he is like the executive producer. he comes up with topics, he looks at reviews, and the quy's topics, he looks at reviews, and the guy's workrate as a footballer was very high and as a broadcaster it is incredible. he is talented. can we talk about some stuff from the
8:19 am
weekend? the talk about some stuff from the weekend ? the jose talk about some stuff from the weekend? the jose mourinho talk about some stuff from the weekend? thejose mourinho side of things. did you think he would lose hisjob when it things. did you think he would lose his job when it was 2—0 down?” interviewed david mcdonnell about the breaking story, saying he could have lost hisjob that the breaking story, saying he could have lost his job that we the breaking story, saying he could have lost hisjob that we can, and thenl have lost hisjob that we can, and then i had him on the show on saturday and we stuck by it. at 2—0 down, you are thinking the worst, but somehow those players came out in the second half and it was like the manchester united of old. players who have not been his favourite, like sanchez, juan mata, martial, they performed and i think they are fighting for their manager. i have been there when they say they have lost the dressing room, but what made them perform like that? i think they want the manager to keep the job. 2-0 down against a low performing opposition, they thought we have nothing to lose. i think since alex ferguson left manchester united there has been chronic risk adversity at the club. they are attacking further up the pitch. if
8:20 am
you want to be creative and break down defences, you have got to take risks, and to take risks you occasionally make errors. there has been way too much fear of failure. and louis van der garde, they were passing too slowly. ifjose mourinho ta kes passing too slowly. ifjose mourinho takes the risks, they have a gifted team. —— undervan takes the risks, they have a gifted team. —— under van harle. takes the risks, they have a gifted team. -- under van harle. you have spoken and you have written about joking, haven't you? was it the 0lympics? —— choking. the mental maze that you going to sometimes. what happened after that penalty? was he worried that it should have been him taking it? was it the moment to beat liveable for the first time this season? it is interesting psychologically. he is someone interesting psychologically. he is someone who on the training pitch would score eight or nine out of
8:21 am
ten, like most footballers, but did you see the debate beforehand? he was questioned by his team—mates and he missed a few historically, four out of five, i think. does that show concern? i think so, out of five, i think. does that show concern? ithink so, mentally. i have no idea. let's discuss it in the pod cast! i listened to it with my daughter and i loved the variety of topics. i can never guess which side i am going to land on. sometimes i agree with you, robbie, and sometimes i don't. the debate last week was fascinating. you are talking about teams versus individuals. i was more of an individuals. i was more of an individual within a team. if i scored a hat—trick and we lost 4—3, i would be happy, scored a hat—trick and we lost 4—3, iwould be happy, even though scored a hat—trick and we lost 4—3, i would be happy, even though the team would be beaten, which might be wrong and freddie was outraged by that. today we are talking about academies, the pathways. my son is 16, a big year of his life. gcses,
8:22 am
the opportunity of a scholarship at a premier league club. how does that affect youngsters? matthew has written a book, have to be awesome, for teenagers, which is fascinating. for parents as well. what i love about the pod cast as there is a lot of sport but also a lot about life. you want your kids to do well but how hard can you push them? it's feel under pressure to do well. robbie, your son is at the academy and you do it brilliantly. freddie has children as well. so many children go into those academies and not everybody can be the next top footballer, can they? 1% of those going to academies make it and kids signing contract at the age of 21, by the time they are 21, 70 5% of them don't play football any more, which is fascinating. —— 75%.
8:23 am
them don't play football any more, which is fascinating. -- 75%. we saw that town in spain where they build a human tower, eight levels tall, and we were discussing the team ethic and what it must be like to be in that winning team. a guy called barry emailed into the programme talking about the human tower. i was involved in a tower in majorca, and it is difficult to describe the feeling of raw human power and emotion. that feeling of responsibility with the men and women around you when you are involved in that. try it some time and you will never experienced anything like it. going back to what you were saying about the team? just say you are playing against burnley tomorrow as a professional footballer and you get taken off after 55 minutes but your team wins 1-0, after 55 minutes but your team wins 1—0, oryou go after 55 minutes but your team wins 1—0, or you go to old trafford and lose 4—3 and you score three? genuinely, having listened to the whole pod cast, i am with the team. the ryder cup as an example. you could be someone who didn't win a point but still be part of the winning team. 0ryou
8:24 am
point but still be part of the winning team. or you could win four and lose. i can see you are thinking it is all about me. but the team ethic of winning the ryder cup is far more important, isn't it? in life i am a team player, whatever i do. you know that. i will try and get the best out of everybody around me. but in sport, if i didn't play well, i wouldn't speak to my wife for a couple of days, even if the tea m for a couple of days, even if the team won. i was that down on myself. i interviewed thomas bjorn on tuesday after the ryder cup. he was saying that as an individual sport, golf, you don't get the chance to celebrate with other people and being ina celebrate with other people and being in a team, exactly what you said, there was solidarity and the opportunity to share the upside. individual sport can be quite isolating, i think. are you talking about doctor who? we should do. it was on last night. don't if you didn't watch it! we are talking
8:25 am
about that in a moment. you are team players. absolutely, definitely. like lennon and mccartney. you have set the bar quite high there! more like bin and ben, i think! set the bar quite high there! more like bin and ben, ithink! —— bill and then. you can download the pod cast from the radio 5 live website. is fred bothering to turn up? yes, he will be in later! good to see you. thank you. coming up on breakfast, something they wouldn't discuss.” know exactly who i am, i am the doctor. she crash landed into the middle of an alien invasion in sheffield last night. we will take a
8:26 am
look atjodie sheffield last night. we will take a look at jodie whitta ker‘s sheffield last night. we will take a look atjodie whittaker‘s debut as the doctor. we will do that after the news, travel and weather wherever you are watching. good morning. we are going to see things warming up quite significantly by the time we get to wednesday, but before that, it is going to be quite a wet day to day across the west of scotland and northern ireland. some bright spells elsewhere across england and wales, largely dry here but you can see this weather front, waving largely dry here but you can see this weatherfront, waving its largely dry here but you can see this weather front, waving its way through northern ireland and much of scotland, so that is going to continue across west of scotland in particular, quite high rainfall totals by the end of today, something a bit drier towards the east of scotland, certainly drier in
8:27 am
england and wales. a few bright spells and some hazy sunshine, maximum temperature getting up to 17 or 18 celsius. through tonight, that rain will continue particularly across western scotland, a dry night elsewhere, some patchy mist and fog developing. temperatures getting fairly low, into single figures in some places, staying in double figures further north. 0n some places, staying in double figures further north. on tuesday we will have that rain further north, and it will be quite relentless, there could be some problems with there could be some problems with the amount of rainfall you will get. for england and wales, more sunshine developing and temperatures starting to creep up. that weather front will stick around as we go through into wednesday, just gradually working its way further northwards. elsewhere across england and wales, we have got some warm air moving its
8:28 am
way in, and if you follow it back you can trace it all the way to africa, so that means that for the south—east, those temperatures could be as high as 24 celsius, getting drier across scotland and northern ireland, temperatures not doing too badly for the time of year. this is business live from bbc news with sally bundock and ben thompson. building bridges. us secretary of state mike pompeo is in china to improve relations between the world's two largest economies. but can he calm fears over the escalating trade war? live from london, that's our top story on monday 8 october. mike pompeo has said "we are determined to win" a trade war with china. so does he visit the country bearing an olive branch or a big stick? we assess the mistrust
