united face chelsea on saturday, but the manager might not make it. good afternoon and welcome to the bbc news at one. the extremist preacher anjem choudary has been released from prison. choudary was jailed two years ago for inviting support for the islamic state terror group, and has been blamed for inspiring a long line of islamist extremists. he's served just under half his sentence — and will now complete the rest of it out ofjail, but under a regime of strict supervision, as our home affairs correspondent june kelly reports. he's out, but anjem choudary is not entirely free. it was before dawn when

the country's most notorious terror convict was driven from belmarsh top securityjail in south london. afterjust two years in prison, anjem choudary was on his way to a probation hostel. he'll be staying there for six months. the whole world, one day, my dear brothers, will be under the sharia. including hackney, and walthamstow, and moscow, and new york. all of the country — inshallah — under the thumb of the muslims. for two decades, anjem choudary was clear about the world he wanted to see. the master manipulator, he was at the centre of a network of violent extremists in the uk and beyond. he was the leader of the banned organisation al—muhajiroun and his followers formed a terror roll call, with dozens of them convicted by the courts. michael adebolajo was one of the pair who carried out the savage street killing of fusilier lee rigby. another choudary disciple,

siddhartha dhar, fled the uk while on bail and is suspected of being part of an is killing squad. the former head of counterterrorism at scotland yard believes choudary‘s influence outstripped his character. i think we've got to be careful not to overstate him. he is a pathetic groomer of others, and should be seen as such. i think we all have to be very careful about not over inflating his status and giving him some sort of mythical evil genius type character, because that's not what he is. choudary is considered to have served half of his five and a half year sentence, and so is eligible for release. he has a long list of more than 20 restrictions. among them, he has to wear a tag and be under a curfew. he can only meet people who are approved. no—one with any terror link. he'll have to get permission

to go on the internet. and he can only go to mosques which have been sanctioned. i've worked with a lot of families. one of the families i've worked with, he's absolutely ruined their lives. one of their kids has been killed in syria, one of the nephews has been killed in syria. their daughter was about to abscond to syria. families have been turned upside down. he is responsible for that, so he shouldn't be released in such a short time. the hate preacher who loved the limelight has been silenced for four years since his arrest. now he's back on the outside, the authorities want to keep him quiet. and stop anjem choudary becoming once again a figure of influence. and june is here. as we heard, some people asking why he has been released now, halfway through a sentence? because like any other prisoner he is eligible for release at this point and has to be freed. it should be said that the government is looking at changing this. they are bringing forward legislation which aims to increase sentences for some terror offences and also stop this automatic halfway

release of people that are considered a risk to the public. i should say that the bbc has spoken to sources who have some knowledge of choudary during his time in frankland prison, in the north—east, where he served most of his term. a p pa re ntly where he served most of his term. apparently he refused to take part in any sort of deradicalisation process. so it appears no change in the mindset. he is now out and around 25 conditions. of course, that means a very big bill for the taxpayer. police in turkey have been searching a forest near istanbul as part of their investigation into the disappearance of the saudi journalist jamal khasshoggi. it's been alleged he was tortured and murdered in the saudi consulate in istanbul more than two weeks ago. president trump says the evidence he's seen so far makes him believe mr khasshoggi is dead.

martin patience sent us this report from istanbul. journalist, critic and now almost certainly dead. turkish police yesterday starting a search in a forest close to istanbul. it's reportedly in connection with the case. us president donald trump, previously said that people shouldn't jump to conclusions. but now he's changed his tune. reporter: do you believe jamal khashoggi is dead? it certainly looks that way to me. it's very sad. it certainly looks that way. what are you considering for possible consequences for saudi based on those... well, it will have to be very severe. it's bad, bad stuff. but we will see what happens. saudi arabia is already feeling the heat. crown prince mohammad bin salman was the driving force behind a grand conference to be held next week in the kingdom. but he's been accused of involvement in the apparent killing of jamal khashoggi. saudi arabia has denied those claims.

but global investors and top politicians are now refusing to go. we have been very clear, yes we want to hear the results of this investigation, we want to see if it's credible, if it's independent. but, if the stories we are reading turn out to be true, will that have an effect on our relationship with saudi arabia? yes it will. because if these stories are true, and it is still an if, they will be totally against our values and what we stand for as a country. america says saudi arabia should be given more time for its investigation, but here today, the turkish foreign minister says an alleged audio recording ofjamal khashoggi's final moments hasn't been shared with any other country. more than two weeks after the apparent killing of the journalist, what this case lacks is clarity. martin patience, bbc news, istanbul.

mps have said a ban on sales of new petrol and diesel cars should be brought forward by eight years, to 2032, to encourage the take—up of electric vehicles. the business select committee says the government's plans to make sure all new cars are effectively zero emission are "vague and unambitious", as theo leggett reports. our city streets are heavily polluted and traffic takes much of the blame. clamp—down on older, dirty vehicles has already begun. from april next year, all but the most recent diesel ca i’s year, all but the most recent diesel cars and vans, and many petrol models, will have to be paid £12.50 a day to enter central london, on top of other charges. other cities, including birmingham and bath, have similar plans. the government wants

to ban the sale of conventional diesel powered and petrol powered ca i’s diesel powered and petrol powered cars and vans by 20110, and make sure that all new models are effectively zero emission. the committee wants the target brought forward by eight yea rs, the target brought forward by eight years, and all the government to reverse a decision to reduce the gra nts reverse a decision to reduce the grants available to owners of a lecture ca rs. grants available to owners of a lecture cars. it's already expensive to buy electric vehicle because it is new technology. the costs will come down, but we think it is right to have some incentives to get people to shift to electric vehicles because we need to improve our air quality, we need to reduce our carbon emissions and that grant is one of those things that was encouraging the take—up of electric vehicles. sales of electric cars have been rising fast. but they still make up a tiny percentage of the market. plug—in hybrids, which abnormal engines that can run on electric power for short distances, also have a very small share. with more than 31 million cars on the road, phasing out petrol and diesel

will certainly be a challenge. mps also say they want the government to do more to promote the creation of charging infrastructure, which they say isn't fit for purpose. and they say isn't fit for purpose. and they say there's no point having a lot more of these if you still haven't got enough of these. although the number of charging points in cities is growing quickly, many rural areas still have very few. there is widespread agreement that many more will be needed. electric is the future. so the challenge is how do we make electric possible? that means rolling out the charging points, which will encourage manufacturers to manufacture more cars, if they know people are going to buy them because people no longer have that range anxiety. the government has not responded to the criticisms directly. a spokesman said it wanted the uk to be the best place in the world to build and own an electric vehicle, and outlined measures for a major improvement in charging infrastructure. the foreign secretaryjeremy hunt has urged tory mps to get behind theresa may —

amid a backlash over the idea of extending the brexit transition period. mr hunt said his party should show the same unity over brexit that the rest of the eu has. in a moment we'll get the latest from brussels and damien grammaticus — but first to westminster, and our political correspondent leila nathoo. leila, some support for the prime minister from her foreign secretary. yes, jeremy hunt, urging tory mps to back their leader, saying the only reason an agreement had been reached so far was because the prime minister had been sticking to her principles in the negotiations. it seems the one thing she has managed to unite her party on is opposition to unite her party on is opposition to this idea of extending the transition period. remember, this was something that was supposed to be nailed down in a withdrawal agreement, and was supposed to end by the end of 2020. downing street insists the possibility of an

extension of a few months only is an idea at the moment that was being explored with the eu. the thinking behind it is that it would allow a future trade deal to be struck, and the deal to be done. therefore, it would make the issue of the backstop, the insurance policy for the irish border, less likely to come into force, and therefore, hopefully, easier to agree. come into force, and therefore, hopefully, easierto agree. but come into force, and therefore, hopefully, easier to agree. but this idea has worried conservative mps from across the party. the scottish secretary david mundell has taken his concerns to number 10, that it could mean the uk stays in the common fisheries policy beyond 2020, and that is something shared, those worries are shared, by a number of scottish conservative mps. this afternoon, the prime minister will come back from brussels. she will be speaking to business leaders by phone about what happened in the negotiations. she will be looking ahead to monday, when she faces parliament, in what is sure to be a very stormy encounter. all right, thank you. and to damian grammaticas in brussels. the prime minister is

still there. have you detected any softening of the eu position towards britain on brexit negotiations? no, not at all. what is interesting is that you now have a situation here today where you have more than 50 countries meeting here in brussels, in this asia— europe summit that is going on. also, all of the target countries that the uk would want to be doing deals with, trade deals after brexit, so we've got japan, south korea, china, there have been warm words for mrs may from the chinese premier today. singapore, also. the singaporeans are signing offa also. the singaporeans are signing off a trade deal today that has taken eight years to reach with the eu. as for the uk, what is unclear is what is going to emerge from this. we know that michel barnier, the chief eu negotiator, is saying today that he still isn't sure if a deal will be done. he said the reason is that the political situation in the uk is very complex,

andi situation in the uk is very complex, and i don't know what decisions theresa may will take, he said. that is at the heart of the negotiation, those two issues. the irish border backstop or the alternative of keeping the uk in a customs union. difficult thing is that the uk faces, whichjeremy difficult thing is that the uk faces, which jeremy hunt difficult thing is that the uk faces, whichjeremy hunt was saying was unacceptable, but that is the decision confronting the uk. thank you to you both. on sunday morning andrew marr will be speaking to the brexit secretary dominic raab — that's at ten o'clock here on bbc one. the father of a man who died after being assaulted at a block of flats in south london, says his son often confronted drug dealers there. a murder investigation is under way after 46—year—old ian tomlin, was killed in battersea. lauren moss is there for us, lauren. what is the latest? in the last hour, the police cordon has been

pulled back, but forensic teams are still coming and going into the block behind many where mr tomlin was found on wednesday evening. it seems he was very well—known in the community, and people today have told me they are very shocked by a father of two, murdered outside his home. 46—year—old ian tomlin suffered fatal injuries after an argument with a group of people on this housing estate on wednesday evening. he was on the floor and there was two police officers around, when i come back from waitrose. theyjust said, get some towels. the lights were still flashing, the car was still open. they just jumped out of the car and they were giving him resuscitation. yesterday, the latest crime figures revealed a surge in knife crime london, with almost 15,000 incidents recorded by police in the last 12 months. there have been more than 100 homicides in the capital this year. the leader of wandsworth council, ravi govindia, has said today what's happened here is truly shocking

and has caused deep upset in the community. he is now calling on london mayor, sadiq khan, do more to tackle what he is called the scourge of knife crime that is affecting simile parts of the city. this falls firmly at the prime minister's door, who was the home secretary at the time when she implemented and introduced these cuts, which are now having a devastating impact on our streets here in london. these cuts do not fall at the door of sadiq khan, mayor, who has been the mayor of london. the motive the mr tomlin's murder is still unknown and the police investigation is continuing. this community is concerned as it grieves. the office for the mayor has released a statement saying mr tomlin's death is devastating for his family, his friends and this community, the mayor also says he is determined to tackle violent crime

and would welcome support from the leader of wandsworth council sill in securing more funding for policing in the capital. meanwhile detectives are still trying to find those responsible for mr our top story this lunchtime. the radical islamist preacher anjem choudary has been seen in north london in the last few minutes having been freed from prison after serving half his sentence — he now faces a regime of strict supervision. and coming up — flying the flag down under. prince harry launches the invictus games. coming up on bbc news. wimbledon calls time on epic fifth set thrillers. the all england club are changing the rules. in australia, prince harry has raised the flag to launch the invictus games for wounded service personnel which starts

this weekend in sydney. he climbed sydney's harbour bridge, to hoist the invictus flag, f11 — that came after a barefoot stroll along bondi beach with his wife, meghan. this report now from our correspondent hywel griffith. the police in sydney don't normally dress like this. but on the city's legendary bondi beach today things we re legendary bondi beach today things were farfrom legendary bondi beach today things were far from normal. legendary bondi beach today things were farfrom normal. westminster to flu ro were farfrom normal. westminster to fluro friday, where surfing and yoga meet mindfulness and marry and meghan. harry opened up to the group about his experiences, it is part of his big push to promote mental health. this is called an anti—bad vibe circle. at the end, a group hug. the house of windsor brought the house down. yoga is for body and soul. the

for those physically and mentally scarred by conflict. he has walked with the men and women of the armed forces. now, he will lead the games he created, to celebrate their survival. new research by the bbc shows that mental health therapy fails more people than it helps in one in seven areas of england. people with conditions such as depression, anxiety and post—traumatic stress disorder are entitled to therapy, and nhs leaders say services have been improving. our health editor hugh pym is here. how worrying are the findings? this is about a programme called improving access to psychological therapies, their elive lengths in scotla nd therapies, their elive lengths in scotland and wales, this is for people with maybe early stage depression or anxiety, for referral bya gp, depression or anxiety, for referral by a gp, for talking therapy and counselling, so let us look at the figures which the bbc has been examining, first, the target for

england is that 50% of patients make a recovery after having this therapy and don't need any further treatment. that target is being hit across the nhs in england nationally, there is wide variation, if you look at local area, in some areas the recovery rate is as high as 66% recovering after this therapy without needing further treatment. but in another area, it is considerably lower, less than half. 32% making a recovery and all the rest needing to go on for further treatment. as you were saying one in seven commissioning groups are missing that national target. now some experts are saying it is a lack of staff, trained therapists that can go ahead and offer this service it is maybe a lack of money with counselling sessions being cut back, nhs england is saying this is a widely admired programme, it is shyingly recommended and at least the national target is is being hit and things are improving, if you

wa nt to and things are improving, if you want to know more about your local nhs mental health services you can look at the nhs tracker, on the bbc website. a man's pleaded guilty to the rape and kidnap of a british backpacker in australia. the woman — who's in her 20s — had been held for a month last year before raising the alarm at a remote petrol station. marcus martin, who's 23, will be sentenced next year. the wife of interpol‘s former president says she does not know if he is alive following his arrest in china. meng hongwei, went missing on a trip to china last month and subsequently resigned. grace meng said she has had no updates on her husband since he disappeared. the chinese authorities have confirmed he's being held on suspicion of bribery. there's been an improvement in the government finances, less than two weeks before the chancellor, philip hammond, delivers his annual budget. public borrowing is running at its lowest level for 16

years so far this year, after september's figure came out at a smaller than expected £4.1 billion. doctors are being encouraged to speak honestly about dying with people who have less than a year to live. a report by the royal college of physicians says medical staff often lack confidence in discussing the subject. our health correspondent dominic hughes reports. talking about death is never easy, but linda knows how important it can be for patients who are dying and their families. when her husband graham was seriously ill four years ago, linda found medical staff struggled with the conversation. they literally just said you've got weeks to live. and, sadly, it was done in an environment that wasn't private. as i say, there were five people round the bed. pagers were going off at the same time. it was very chaotic. and it left a realfeeling of guilt with me, because i felt i should have done more. because that was a private moment,

a really significant moment for him. nearly half of all deaths in england occur in hospitals. one in three adults admitted to hospital as an emergency is in the last year of their life. but only 4% of patients have talked about end—of—life care with a doctor. they're worried as doctors they'll be seen as a failure for saying we can't necessarily prolong your life and they are worried about the reaction they'll get. the second is we don't always have the confidence as doctors or the training or the experience to have those conversations sensitively. and the third thing is we don't always have the time, or the privacy, or the right information, we worry about rushed conversations done badly. so i think there are some practical considerations. and doctors welcome the prospect of further training in this difficult area. they don't have time to practice and hone these kinds of skills. and they feel unconfident in doing it. and that's when the conversations go badly. we know that having more training

for medical students and juniors in this, but also good role models, from senior clinicians in these types of conversations, is vital in moving this forward. not only for the confidence, but also the practicalities of how we talk about death and dying. the royal college says talking honestly about dying is an essential part of making sure there is compassionate care at the end of life. dominic hughes, bbc news. if you've been enjoying the latest series of autumnwatch on the bbc, you'll have seen images captured on cameras so sensitive that they can spot a mouse from a mile away. the technology was developed for military use — and until recently was top secret. our correspondent richard westcott has been to find out more. calais harbour in france. shot on a camera that's 20 miles away in dover. a bite powerful enough to crack open this rich source of food. and no one had ever seen this before — jaguars hunting sea turtles at night. their images captured on a thermal

camera that was top secret until a few years ago and it's made here, in basildon. to give you an idea ofjust how sensitive the camera is, it can pick out changes in temperature down to 0.001 degrees. so if i put my hands on my chest like this, i'm heating myjumper and hopefully when i take them away... you'll see that. let me introduce paul, hello paul. hello richard. i know you are out there somewhere in the dark. we can even see a mouse from a mile away searching for food in a ploughed field. wow, a mouse in a field, it's incredible. you wouldn't be able to identify what species it is but you can definitely tell it's a mouse running around. lights. hello. paul is a wildlife enthusiast and he was using the military camera to photograph owls at a local aerodrome, when he got chatting to someone with connections at the bbc. he sent some of the footage off

to the natural history unit in bristol and within 48 hours, they have the producer on the phone, can you come down and see this kit because it was so, so much of a leap forward to the technology they were using already. she's nervous. and this is why... the faint glow in the grass is her hidden baby. a leveret, just a day or two old. the team spent a year adapting the system from something that was hooked onto the front of an raf helicopter, to something that was portable enough for wildlife film—makers. one of the reasons this camera has been able to capture previously unseen animal behaviour, is that it can see a very, very long way. if you compare it to our normal tv camera, that brown water tower on the horizon is six miles away. here's the view on the thermal imaging cam. or how about these coffee

roasting chimneys? look at the heat coming off. finally, we used it to film a bbc reporter at a watering hole nearly a mile away. spot the heat from the coffee. just a few years ago, this camera was still a military secret, now it's transforming the way we see the natural world. richard wescott, bbc news, essex. when it comes to epic tennis matches, there's been none longer than that between the americanjohn isner and the frenchman nicolas mahut. it was played over three days at wimbledon, back in 2010. well, now marathon matches like that are to become a thing of the past — wimbledon is introducing a change to the rules. our sports correspondent joe wilson is here. highly recommended and at so,joe, so, joe, wimbledon, they don't like change, they don't like changing the rules, why are they doing it? that match still amazing me that happened but there was another match this

year, you may rememberjohn isner was at it again, versus kevin anderson, this match went on for over six—and—a—half hour, the final set was almost three hours before kevin anderson won you can tell he was exhausted. it didn't feel like a victory he said. it had become very boring play, when it came to the final, anderson cease biggest match, he was exhausted. he lost very easily. so i think wimbledon have realised after that much in particular it is counter productive to have these almost endless final sets. so what is going to change in terms of the final set. they still wa nt terms of the final set. they still want this facility to allow the match finish in its natural way. in the final set, it applies to women's and doubles, but it will be allowed to go 12 all, almost like having an extra set. it is a balance between

allowing this natural conclusion, but also the practicality, the scheduling, i mean if you suddenly have a match which lasts six—and—a—half hours, even longer, that plays havoc with the schedule and for broadcasters. indeed. thank you joe. time for a look at the weather with alina jenkins hello, so of us got off to a cold and foggy start. this was the scene in powys late morning. we is had good spells of sunshine. that sunshine here in scotland is beginning to be replaced by more cloud. this weakening front sinking south and eastwards, bringing patchy rain but tending to fizzle out. few showers for the northern and western isle, ahead of it plenty of sunshine in much of england and wales, temperatures up to 16 or 17.
