at the time of the offence. and even the actor himself wanted to reassure police he wasn't the man they were looking for, tweeting, "it wasn't me". now it's time for the weather with susan powell. good evening. a lot more cloud drifting along at the moment, looking at the haiti —— hazy. satellite picture shows that cloud, the bright white areas indicating bigger patches. this clears bells can be found as well, and we get a few of those to the south, that can mean temperatures and 1—2 spots down as low as a0 degrees. —— a degrees. clear skies gci’oss degrees. —— a degrees. clear skies across the northeast of england. elsewhere thicker clouds and drizzle gci’oss

elsewhere thicker clouds and drizzle across western scotland, maybe cumbria north wells. we started thursday with more clout and contrasting on wednesday, that is how it will continue. there will be bright or sunny spells to the south and east. a little bit cooler than wednesday, 20 degrees on wednesday, 15-16d is wednesday, 20 degrees on wednesday, 15—16d is our top senator for thursday afternoon. by the afternoon... that is tied with the arrival of the weather front that really changes the weather for the end of this week. not much rain in association with it, but notice the mild atlantic air squeezing off to the continent into the blue—collar, plunged into arctic air with a cutting northerly wind to follow up behind our weather front for friday. lots of sunshine but plenty of showers packing and thanks to the wind, also focusing on the eastern coast of england. these are temperatures, figures have been down, factoring in the rain. it will

be the same story through the weekend, staying at northerly or northeasterly air streams, lots of sunshine away from exposed showers clustering. clear skies for northern scotland, targeting eastern coast of england in a —— western coast of wales. temperatures well down in single figures, and now taking a look at what the wind tiles into those eyes. for many the temperatures will feel close to freezing. some the‘s picture will be similar. hello.

this is bbc news. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow mornings papers in a moment. first, the headlines: suspected explosive devices are sent to leading democrats including barack 0bama and the clintons. donald trump says political violence has "no place" in america. the full weight of our government is being deployed to conduct this investigation to bring those responsible for those despicable acts to justice. the saudi crown prince mohammed bin salman vows to punish all the "culprits" responsible for the murder of the journalist jamal khashoggi in turkey. warnings of queues, delays and criminal gang activity at the uk's borders, if britain leaves the eu without a deal. hello and welcome to our look ahead

to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are stephen bush, special correspondent at the new statesman, and dia chakravarty, brexit editor at the telegraph. let's have a look at tomorrow's front pages. struggling cafe chain patisserie valerie admits it failed to declare to shareholders that it awarded millions of pounds of share bonuses to its two executives. that's on the front of the ft. the metro leads with theresa may's address to backbenchers. she gave what's been described as an "emotional" bid to win back support for her brexit plan. the prime minister allegedly argued in private that the pressure on the government in the run—up to brexit allowed her to rush through the promotion of sir mark sedwill to cabinet

secretary without a formal recruitment process. that's on the front of the times. the crackdown on non—disclosure agreements features on the front of the i. it reports that the high—profile businessman who bought silence to cover up his sexual misconduct may be named in the house of commons if a victim agrees. "he loved that i was scared." fresh claims about that individual are on the front of the telegraph, with a new victim claiming she was assaulted at a party by the businessman. the daily mail leads with a warning from mps that police forces in england and wales are under an unmanagable amount of stress and as a result, a large number of crimes have remained unsolved. the guardian has an exclusive story about a tower block in liverpool. it reports that mill view tower, which had more housing prosecutions in 2017 than any other building, was 80% owned by international investors. and a surge in superbug cases makes the lead in the mirror. the paper warns that sooner

or later hospitals won't be able to treat anything. so let's start with the daily mail and the story there about the police and the story there about the police and saying that they cannot cope with the crimes are being committed basically. they have looked at the impact of the public spending cuts on the police and the picture they are painting is very grim. please are painting is very grim. please are not able to combat most crimes, things are going unsolved and the police are just overwhelmed by what they have to do. and they are obviously blaming it on the budget reasonably. yes, it is and has two big implications. first, the national picture. we saw howjeremy corbyn very skilfully used police cuts to bring the threat to the police into his anti—austerity message, usually in area pain for the labour party, he made it a very

lucrative area. the other thing is the london mayor election. conservatives think they can use the rise in crime here in the capital to defeat study con. the think a lot of smart tory mps and saying it is going up in coventry, norfolk, how can we say that the mayor is the problem. it has the political implications. and that is the point of the conservatives traditionally, law and order is a strong point. but we saw at the last election that it was turned around on them. they have had trouble defending their record. some of their numbers in the daily mail story is crime reported were up by 32%. but people actually charged or summoned by 32%. but people actually charged of summoned were by 32%. but people actually charged or summoned were down by 26%. so thatis or summoned were down by 26%. so that is quite big numbers there. so it is also being done in a different ta ke it is also being done in a different take in the times, which they thought about calling numbers which have to do with the budget, but they

also talk about an outdated technology and fragmented leadership. so they are calling for an in—depth review into the whole syste m an in—depth review into the whole system to work out how they can deliver better service for the people. but it is obviously a very difficult topic for the conservatives if they cannot defend their law conservatives if they cannot defend theirlaw and conservatives if they cannot defend their law and order record. and for theresa may given she was home secretary for so long. quite, exactly. she has at history there it'll be interesting to see what cotties it'll be interesting to see what comes out his review and how she is involved in all of this. is messy. let's move onto the metro. this story we have heard about this crunch meeting of the 1922 committee, the backbenchers basically of the conservative party. also speculation about what would happen. may said i will come and speak to you. this was the meeting that warrants the briefing said she should bring her own news and they we re should bring her own news and they were out for assassination. it did not quite turn out like that. no, in

the end it was a revision of hail to the end it was a revision of hail to the chief. the party uniting around crews because although she has not formally abandoned her brexit proposals, she has often been in a way that means there are a lot congenial to the conservative party. the problem of course is we have a hung parliament and it is not clear how the proposals that have caused her to be cheered to the raptors today are going to pass the floor of parliament. does hejust today are going to pass the floor of parliament. does he just know that she is obviously trying to square circles, very many of them actually and she says one thing to one group and she says one thing to one group and they are happy for a bit and then of course immediately she has to go back to the e u and she knows very well that they are not happy with what she is proposing. they are not happy with what she is proposing. it cannot go on. she has been trying to square a lot of circles rather and is trying to please a lot of different parties. the country is divided but more importantly for her, the party is divided. even more pressingly, the cabinet is divided. i think there was quite a lot of sympathy, even notjust tory

was quite a lot of sympathy, even not just tory voters that she was trying to do a difficult job and people wanted to give her the benefit of the debt that she would deliver the best result the she was able to deliver. the trouble with theresa may is that she is a terrible communicator. and you might say that that is not important so much if you are delivering what you are delivering but in order to get a party, cabinet and country frankly behind you, you have to provide a vision. you people do not know what it is they are being asked to support, it is difficult for them to support, it is difficult for them to support anything. the one thing i would say is nothing good happened today and i think a lot of brexit supporters would be losing patience with a lot of brexit supporting mps and maybe even cabinet members who keep saying she needs to do better and to make a lot of noise but do not to do anything about it. they did not take responsibility in that sense. that is one thing. the other thing is the parliamentary arithmetic and the problem with the irish border is still there and we still do not know what is happening with that and time is running out. when the results quite sane or some

sort of plan very soon. that is the point here that the brexiteers have been saying we want to change the policy but get rid of her or change direction but she is not changing direction. at what point do they, if ever, act against her?|j direction. at what point do they, if ever, act against her? i think never because their problem is they cannot get rid of her because her are not enough tory mps iwata bird away from their current position and they're certainly not on board with the majority. the big problem theresa may has is it is one thing for me to say that i crashed a car so we have to walk. that is quite a hard message if i am responsible for crashing the car. she cannot stand up crashing the car. she cannot stand up andi crashing the car. she cannot stand up and i would say we have a hung parliament and a softer brexit because she is responsible for the loss of the tory party majority. and they will never be able to get themselves into a good position while she is there most get rid of her with means we probably will leave with no deal. is that what you think is most likely? is the only move it requires anyone to do anything. that is the default. some

would say that as a failure of the political class. i bet it would be. it isa political class. i bet it would be. it is a government policy to have a deal and it is the eu policy do have a deal. so michel barnier, it is his policy, he has been directed by the council to go and get a deal. so it will be a failure on both sides if it comes to that. i am an aggressive nerd, so it is important to me that it is myjob and important to make it is myjob and important to make ita it is myjob and important to make it a point that we talk about living without a deal, i'll be talking about leaving without a trade deal is met that is something else i can come in the future. 0r hojbjerg about living without a deal regarding aviation plans or anything like that which will be more serious at least in the longer term as well. so we have to be clear about the language that we use. but when politicians were leading us and not making it clear, it is difficult for the rest of us to make any sense and produce any sense and clear way. that is what is alarming, they do

not know what is going to happen clearly. now moving onto the times and this is the story about the new head of the civil service effectively and that is because he has input into the job without normal record the procedure because ofa normal record the procedure because of a brexit crisis. it is a sad story. jeremy hayward, the pre—eminent civil service, who has been at the treasury, downing street says the early 90s has had to retire early because he is battling cancer. mark sidwell is coming in as acting cabinet secretary is moving to full time but the thing about sidwell is although he is very respected in whitehall is he is one of using your service and a few ministers or anyone in whitehall who can work with theresa may. he was someone who we re with theresa may. he was someone who were hurt the whole office. we talk a lot at likely to be an ephemeral legacy, this is what it will be at

the heart of the british state for decades and this is probably going to be the biggest decision that she makes. it is interesting because by losing to —— jeremy makes. it is interesting because by losing to ——jeremy hammer, a man of vast experience at a time we had just been saying there is huge uncertainty, is there not? that is the excuse for bypassing the regular process, which labour is right to point out that there should have beena point out that there should have been a process in place for how we choose a senior civil servant. downing street is saying this is got to bea downing street is saying this is got to be a continuity appointment, if you like, there is brexit but also the khasoggi incident, which is massive and they have to do with that. and downing street is also saying there was only one other viable option anyway, sir chris ward one from the department of health. and they said this as may was going

to choose sidwell anyway because as steven said, she had been working with him since june when the surgery me step back. and it is her nature that there are few people that she gets comfortable working with and fiow gets comfortable working with and now introducing a new person at this stage at such a high level might be quite bothersome. let's go to the telegraph and be able to stick with your business. it began yesterday, this seen as the new me to accusation. a businessman who has been accused of sexual assault amongst other things. but the accusation as well that he has paid money to really have gagging clauses of people who are reporting it. sexual and racial harassment is what i understand against at least five female members of staff who have been, who have signed nondisclosure agreements, and the court of appeal

decrees yesterday that we could not report on this. that in this particular case, his privacy, not his privacy but i think the terms of the contract law in this case trumped the public service or the public interest in this case. but today, there are two interesting things that happened today. one is that we are reporting a well— known socialite, somebody who be cannot name, who believes that she is somebody who was a victim of this businessman as well. but for legal reason the telegraph cannot admit or cannot confirm or deny that because we are not allowed to by law. and thatis we are not allowed to by law. and that is interesting in and out raises the case of our more people going to come out with their experiences as well? cannot talk about a? experiences as well? cannot talk about a ? the experiences as well? cannot talk about a? the second thing that happened was in parliament, theresa may was asked about a labour mp the

theresa may thanks that in this case, nondisclosure agreements should not be really used in this case where criminality is being cove red case where criminality is being covered by these clauses. where it would have implications about whether whistle—blowers would have implications about whether whistle— blowers can thought about it. we might be seeing a review as early as next week to change laws so this cannot happen in the sort of cases. i thinkjust loves is also said that she would be willing to use her palmistry privileged to actually name this person if need be if the victim comes forward and want to talk about it. it is a big issue that these agreements are being weapon as someone said earlier by the rich and powerful to stop wrongdoing coming out. their use by harvey weinstein. the point of an nda is is a i have a new film coming out, you cannot go to the press and tell the press with a twist at the end of my film is. not that i can get someone to sign one that keeps him from saying i am to to be the one i should not be. it

isa to to be the one i should not be. it is a huge abuse of law and there is a use is a huge abuse of law and there is ausei is a huge abuse of law and there is a use i decide to do something about it but the question is whether the stars will align to allow them to be done about it. let's moving to the ft. done about it. let's moving to the ft, bombs, targets, cnn, 0bama clinton. not what they want in the run—up to the midterm elections. but it has opened up a number —— another angle to the home thought about clinical discourse, how divisive it is in america and of course people pointing the finger at donald trump in the sense that they are saying he has sort of allow this kind of thing to happen. this is a left-wing candidate for the president last time and the main left—wing broadcaster all being targeted by bombing attacks and you have a president who talks about locking herup, president who talks about locking her up, calling the press the lying media and there has been an overheating of rhetoric in the us. and we note the violent rhetoric leads to violent consequences and

the thing that we still have here we look at the way people were condemning the violent language against theresa may is a bipartisan consensus that this is alabama. that has broken down completely in the us and this may be the beginnings of a much more violent chapter in american politics. it is alarming, is it not in all the senses, that the political discourse is becoming more violent and able to not do justice with each other? yes, it certainly is. the way it is manifested over the last 24 hours or la st manifested over the last 24 hours or last few hours even because the george soros incident happened yesterday is especially violent and physically violent yesterday is especially violent and physically viole nt and yesterday is especially violent and physically violent and particularly dangerous. nothing we see a lot of that in this country, too. i think we have all accepted this sort of narrative that if we disagree with somebody, they must be evil and therefore they deserve any abuse i can throw at them and that is just not right, that cannot be right. and i think we have to challenge that a lot more, otherwise the sort of thing happens and it is not a

suitable. let's finish with the daily mail. we have an image on a few of the papers, outrage over a tv star who shoots sheep and goats for kicks. so this is a tv star who hau nts kicks. so this is a tv star who haunts basically. she has gone to a scottish island and is pictured here with a ram. she is in gaza and caused outrage. yes, it has really u nsettle caused outrage. yes, it has really unsettle people and people are coming to this island and they are shooting sheep and goats. the slide oddity is these guys are not indigenous. they are passed and it does make a lot of money for the real economy the people, and it is the people find it very this —— a sizeable and is printed a problem for the subject of her and they will have to do something to bandits of a behaviour and it is a big problem. so maybe we'll find it very disturbing. obviously in scotland,

people hunt, shoot. it is a well—known pastime, sports and people call it. and there was someone saying things in £69 million coming into the economy. is it because of the way she is betrayed here, what she is wearing, how she is seemingly enjoying it. is that with the issue is here?|j is seemingly enjoying it. is that with the issue is here? i think that is part of the issue. i think it is a very interesting point that you bring up that it is actually some landlords who want to use their land is why. they invite or advertised hunting grounds on their own land. that is a very private property issue. if somebody wants to do, what right have you or i or stephen got to actually condemn them or say anything against that? the we offer is that we do not like it and we are free to say that this is something that we find distasteful and that is all we can do and that is what we are doing. thank you very much indeed. that's it for the papers tonight. don't forget you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website. it's all there for you seven days a week at bbc.co.uk/papers, and if you miss the programme any

evening, you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. thank you, stephen and dia. goodbye. hello with your sports run—up on bbc news channel. and the champions league tonight, a late equaliser denied tottenham hostpur a when. but at andrew, liverpool chalked up a a-o at andrew, liverpool chalked up a a—0 win over red star belgrade. david 0rnstein watched the action for us. liverpool love nothing more than european nights under the anfield lies and against red star belgrade, the men in red were quickly into their stride thanks to

roberto firmino. just before half—time, it was to. give mohamed salah declares that a goal and this tends to be the outcome. after the break, he struck again and it sadio mane concluded the smoothest of jobs. far tougher tests over what if they are together all the way. and i it was an evening of toil for totte n ha m. it was an evening of toil for tottenham. toby alderweireld's mistake allowed psv to open the scoring. spurs were the better side and after lucas moura equalise, harry kane finished a fine move to put them ahead. but there was still time for a twist. psv snatched a late leveler which means tottenham hostpur champions league hopes hanging bya hostpur champions league hopes hanging by a thread. the other game in tottenham's group saw barcelona stay top of the group with a 2—0 win over interval on. the result of the night though came in germany where government hammered atletico madrid a—hybrid zero and the last of those

scored by an englishman. thierry henri foyth pursed generously game as monaco because ended in a 1—1 draw at bruges. west brom missed a chance to go top of the way bishop as they were thrashed by derby county. the site went to heaven zero up county. the site went to heaven zero up at half—time and liverpool loan the kerry wilson added his connection to make another three—goal lead. level on points with a west brom in the table and two points off the top two. so that the fee for west brom opened the doorfor the fee for west brom opened the door for leads the fee for west brom opened the doorfor leads to the fee for west brom opened the door for leads to take top spot and they took full advantage. goals and needs have gave them a 200 zero win over is which. preston climbed out of the bottom three with a victory at home to brentford but hall remained in the relegation places after losing at bristol city. danny cipriani has been suspended for three weeks for the high tackle the

quy three weeks for the high tackle the guy him sent off in gloucester‘s champions club match to muster at the wiccan. world rugby sessions normally carry a minimum six—week vampfor normally carry a minimum six—week vamp for this above offence but it was reduced because of cipriani's clear disciplinary record and his timely expression of remorse. he will miss three premiership rugby cup games although it is unlikely he would have been halved. england cricket cotes trevor bayliss has mourned his one—day players they can miss the world cup next year if they do not improve. his comments came after a listen for their heaviest ever debate, eight to 19 run thrashing by sri lanka in the final match of the series. come woke up at him, we will need more than 11 guys informed so it was a chance to give some of those kinds of video game time. it is one thing giving guys a chance but we are looking for some of those guys to actually take hold of those guys to actually take hold of their opportunities. if they do,

but might find themselves in their world cup spot. if it is not, they might be out. there are not too many more opportunities before the world cup is picked, so some of the guys need to turn it around pretty quickly. and kyle abbott continued his leg surge for a place in the atp finals with a first round at the openin finals with a first round at the open in vienna. freshman his first tour triumph open in vienna. freshman his first tourtriumph in open in vienna. freshman his first tour triumph in antwerp at the wicket, the british number want the diego schwartzman in straight sets and he will now meet spain prospect fernando for dos go next. all right, thatis fernando for dos go next. all right, that is all for the sport for now. good night. today, the richards got close to 20 degrees in seven areas where there was a jab at those two having of a few days. that is down. there are you'll notice is more clout around. it will still be dry for many of us. this is a satellite picture over the

next few hours, the cloud has been spending its weight in from the north and west. we keep hold of some clear spells across southern and eastern areas to drilling and go to the rest of the night would be on missed developing but generally fairly large areas of crowds butting in. mornhinweg cloud and we had today but there will be some sunny break. the best of these to the east of the high ground but users: a northeastern elite, east wells into the west midlands and a bit of sunshine for east anglia in the saudl sunshine for east anglia in the saudi. but all the while, we will see rain developing across the northwest of scotland. this ranked turning heavier as we head towards the end of the day. temperatures definitely have a common 950 degrees. during tomorrow night, we said the rain across, spread his weight subways were to across the island into a lead and wales, to be that as a way as a ghost. but behind his cloud in this range, we seek a change in the field of the weather. things are much colder across goal areas and that is a sign of what is to come. this frontal system here is

our band of cloud and rain and a heineken and we started tapping up to so much colder air coming from a long way north. so on friday, hospital system and band of clouds and patchy rain will clear from the south and then it is a mixture of sunshine and showers. the showers mostly in areas exposed only went so ghoddos: and perhaps the island and one or two daily across west wales into the southwest of england and have a look at these two creatures, these are the maximums at six 712 at bats. we stick with actually feel the weather as we head on into the coming weekend. it is cold with abiding northerly wind. some such above some showers, to an no showers perhaps wendell it —— to entry in all areas of her high grandmother is all areas of her high grandmother is a risk of frost and ice. showers again on saturday in areas exposed to normally when some not as many showers but the inland parts that could be one or two and some spells

of sunshine but temperatures on the thermometer at seven, eight, of sunshine but temperatures on the thermometerat seven, eight, 9 degrees and we had the strength of the king northerly wind, this is what is going to feel like, maybe feeling like one or two or three degrees in places so to but —— heading downwards the next few days. that is all for me for now, good night. welcome to newsday on bbc. i'm mariko 0i in singapore. 0ur headlines this hour. the fbi investigates a wave of suspected bombs sent to high profile american politicians, including barack 0bama and hillary clinton. the motives aren't clear. president trump says such violence has no place in the united states. i'm ben bland in london. also in the programme. in our second special report on china's muslim minority, we hear from those who have fled the country, leaving families behind. translation: i don't know where my mother and my father are, or my brothers and sisters. the government wants us to renounce our ethnicity, our beliefs, and our humanity. the saudi crown prince makes his first public comments on the murder ofjamal khashoggi, he promises justice.
