values across the barren of scotland compared to further west where it will be 12 or 13 celsius. by wednesday, finally lost our front gci’oss wednesday, finally lost our front across scotland, just one or two showers with wins, once again the best of the sunshine across southern and eastern parts of england, up to 60 or seven —— 17 celsius but it's a drag and find a and b of god the cloud. it will not last very much longer. it'll be replaced by some strong cold northerly winds, all the way down the arctic anytime of year but as we go through —— towards the end of october we will feel the difference by friday and into the weekend. things do turn much colder in that strong northerly winds and there's the potential we will see some snow for the hills of scotland and northern england. hello. this is bbc news with carole walker. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow mornings papers in a moment — first the headlines. the uk, france and germany issue a joint statement condemning the killing ofjournalist, jamal khashoggi inside the saudi

consulate in istanbul — and call for urgent clarification of what happened. the brexit secretary dominic raab says conservative mps should ‘hold their nerve‘ over negotiations with the eu and play for the team meanwhile, theresa may writes in the sun that some "long and difficult days ahead" but that the brexit "finish line is in sight". president trump vows to stop thousands of honduran migrants heading towards the us border — he calls it ‘an onslaught of illegal aliens‘. the oscar—winning director peter jackson brings new life to footage of world war i soldiers and the they shall not grow old, find out about the rest of these releases and the film review. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be
11:32 pm
bringing us tomorrow. with me arejoe twyman, director of deltapoll and henry zeffman, politcal correspondent for the times many of tomorrow‘s front pages are already in. the financial times leads on president trump‘s decision to withdraw from the intermediate nuclear forces treaty — with moscow warning that the move is "dangerous" for global security. the metro reports on the attacks made by conservative mps on theresa may, after she conceded the uk‘s transition period out of the eu could be extended ‘by a matter of months‘. the times says things could get even worse for the prime minister, with a warning that she faces a rebellion by more than a0 of her mps if she does not bow to new demands from brexiteers in the next 48 hours. the telegraph says she‘s facing a revolt from her own cabinet —
11:33 pm
and that‘s despite spending an hour and half on what they describe as an "extraordinary" conference call to ministers trying to shore up support for her brexit plans. whilst the guardian‘s front page sees things a little more positively — it reports that the prime minister will tell the commons tomorrow that 95% of the brexit withdrawal agreement is done. and the sun has an exclusive from mrs may — she‘s written an article in the paper that says she will continue with her brexit plan — even if it means she risks losing herjob as result. lots of trouble for the prime minister across the front pages once again. and, joe, the sun has its own exclusive because theresa may has written for the paper, but the paper but interpretation on it. with some
11:34 pm
of the words written out with a full sinatra style parades there. resist the phrase to sing it. it has not been a good day for theresa may on brexit. possibly her 700th bad day on brexit in a row. talk of a conference call, between cabinet members, never a good sign, comments and some of the papers today about quote, entering the killing zone and that she would be dead soon. and this could be said is her response. she has written in the sun and talked about how she wants to give people back, control of money and borders, get people security, jobs and the economy. all these bright ideas that the public want to hear, depending on which side of the argument you are on. but the details are not there on how it will work.
11:35 pm
getting there zero struggle. trying to appeal to them. if you look at the op—ed, quite a lot of it is kind of pitched in a way to contrast her with members of her cabinet who are pitching for herjob, i do not think about what the implications are for me,| about what the implications are for me, i asked about what the implications are for me, iasked myself about what the implications are for me, i asked myself what it means to you, your family me, i asked myself what it means to you, yourfamily and me, i asked myself what it means to you, your family and the whole of the united kingdom. brexit talks about a bomb near my poor single —— about a bomb near my poor single —— about me or my personal fortunes. people buying for herjob, but, as joe said, it is very short on detail, the brexit talks or at a very significant impacts, —— but if there is not a solution, that is acceptable to brussels and her party, then the talks are going to go on being at a standstill. and she
11:36 pm
has graced the public for how difficult it is going to be, saying that the finishing line is in sight though. only one in five people believes that the negotiations on brexit are going anything other than badly, so the prime minister has a real obstacle course ahead of her and there is no doubt that the finish line may be in sight, but it is still a long way off, and whether that finish line arrives in march but beyond that, still needs to be decided, it is a long way to go. and henry, picking up on this, back down on brexit orchestral bolt may warrant. —— or face on brexit orchestral bolt may warrant. —— orface revolt. the long awaited road to the microphones may happen. the used parliamentary procedures to outwit happen. the used parliamentary procedures to out wit the government and drag them closer towards a rupture with the eu and with the
11:37 pm
times reports tomorrow is that they're going to use an obscure piece of legislation about northern ireland to try and effectively make the backstop plan, that the eu wants them to sign up to illegal. and if they have commissioned urgent legal advice to see whether theresa may needs to face them down, but it's just another pressure point and what is clearly going to be yet another week of high anxiety for the prime ministerand week of high anxiety for the prime minister and you do have to start wondering, how many more of these kinds of days and weeks to she happened to aporia in peace stop saying that she's the best of a very bad bunch and saying surely, no one could be any worse than this? no one has shown any sign of actually trying to trigger this much talked about challenge. there is rumours that she may be facing a0 odd letters, the 19 needs a8, maybe a8,
11:38 pm
maybe a6, it is unclear she is facing. but people like steve baker who have said, are very clever at using procedure, does anyone, do they want to be responsible for bringing theresa may down his? for that necessarily make their pains we re that necessarily make their pains were brexit any closer for them. it's were brexit any closer for them. it‘s difficult to see an alternative because at the moment, there is not an obvious person or plan either. and without either, it is difficult to move forward. and they keep existing that this is about getting her to get rid of the plant which they all hate and move to a much looser relationship which is what they want. and that is possibly true but if they truly believed that she was trying to get into that kind of arrangement, dear deluded, and
11:39 pm
they're now realising that it is really the prime minister and the policy, they come together as an indivisible whole. to ask yourself the question, who's the leader that can reach the massive divide within within the tory party on european policy? theresa may has been fudging the question again and again, but we have a deadline coming up. the candidates divided to those who are unpopular and unknown, and that is not a great position to begin if you wish to salvage the best out of the situation. it could yet help the prime ministerfor yet situation. it could yet help the prime minister for yet another crunch week, in the meantime there is really serious concern over this entire question of the death of jamal, who did meet his death in
11:40 pm
that consulate in istanbul. and turkey, and now pulling to reveal the full details. the kind of tensions that have been present in the middle east and in the wider region for some time now, playing out. this is about control for employees over at the muslim world and who wants their particular version of government, of islam presented more widely and he is using this as an opportunity to take, we‘re in real trouble over this with both turkey and their western allies and already, they‘re condemning them. their explanations have been changing multiple times which is never a good sign if you wish to prove that you are innocent and where things go from here could be very important for the entire region. we have seen statements from the uk, france, germany and others. but what i think is much more
11:41 pm
important here is that he joe is absolutely right, it is between saudi and america, and most intriguingly, the political threads of both couple of years of trump's presidency, is the closeness that he and also his sun in law, have secured with the crown prince and saudi arabia. and his game here is to use this case, as grand as it is, —— grandma. he's trying to drive apart america and get a little bit himself. and to see if they are prepared to sacrifice their oil interests over this issue. absolutely, there‘s been a lot of issues with saudi arabia and the number of years now and most recently, the blockade in, the war
11:42 pm
in yemen, and now this, it is now a hugely strategically important country for our western allies and to endanger that remains to be seen. another story in a front—page, lifting offshore tax deals. another attempt by philip hammond to get some night of the gaming industry. it looked to the budget. whitty is going to present tomorrow, this is about filling the a different policy oi'i about filling the a different policy on gaming. the betting terminals, from £100 tojust £2 on gaming. the betting terminals, from £100 to just £2 and on gaming. the betting terminals, from £100 tojust £2 and he said, will do this but we will make up the money elsewhere and the financial times said he is going to raise the rate and post on promote gaming duty and that his duty to operate overseas from 15% to 20 and 25%, the
11:43 pm
question is though, whether it is tinkering at the edges are actually do something more substantial to fill the holes in the government finances. is a huge amount of concerns about young people who get hooked on gambling, but not necessarily proved that easy to try and get money out of offshore companies, is it? it is a difficult thing, but the whole situation is difficult. he knows that he has to bind, an estimated £20 billion extra on top of what is already collected. you could look at raising something like income tax, but he knows that is not going to be popular. but these issues, these niche taxation is on specific areas, could provide the answer, but this will only raise one billion and they will loose the a00 million that they were getting from the fixed odds machine with a
11:44 pm
lot of money still defined. and just briefly, quite a headache for the chancellor anyway, especially as theresa may has raised expectations by declaring the end of austerity and people expecting even more money, when she‘s already got several holes to fill. the chancellor was already scrabbling to find money for the past injection that the nhs needed, and that the suggestion of the end of austerity. to have prior instinct than her, it is going to be really interesting to see what he comes up with because tax rises are unpopular. will have to leave it there for now, thank you for joining to leave it there for now, thank you forjoining us this evening. that is it for the papers tonight, do not forget you can see the front pages of the papers, it is all there for you seven days a week at bbc .co .uk. and you can see it later on on
