11:30 pm
thejungle, writes the daily star. i celebrity contestants are planning against the bossy noel edmonds. let's make a start with brexit. first of all, the daily telegraph, and i've lost my running order, but i know that's where we are starting, made to curb migration as brexit vote looms clearly appealing to people and politicians for whom immigration was a big issue. that is right. i think she is trying to appeal to people not politicians. as you mention, she was doing a public phone in earlier today on the bbc. this is part of a broader strategy to go over the heads of parliament and squabbling mps and deceit of the british people, you know, backley, and back ideal. and immigration been, and she has been clear from the start of the prime ministership, this has been the major element in the referendum, and this is designed to address the realities around that. she wants as well to send a message out to the
11:31 pm
country, to ordinary people, to ask voters, as well, not politicians, even though they are the ones that have but on this in the commons. this is notjust about people in the commons as it is about the average person in the street, and 50% of the population are less engaged than the average person in the street. but what they want are the broad narratives to be in line with their expectations. furore leave vote, your top priority could be immigration. —— if you are a leave voter. but theresa may has been clear that this will end freedom of movement. theresa may is putting out a video tonight with an exposure the deal say it has an end to the freedom of movement and it is part ofa freedom of movement and it is part of a new skills —based immigration system. and so that is what this is all about. but part of the end to freedom of movement of people is that it works the other way as well. you know, it might seem like it is stating the obvious, but british
11:32 pm
people won't be able to travel freely, work, study, like we have, in the eu, as well. that will crop up in the eu, as well. that will crop up to. but this is designed to appeal to leave voter is more than remain voters. at the moment about one in five people support the deal, and only 2% supported strongly. a lot of people bigger goes too far, and a lot of people bigger does not go in foreign. i think they are the oi'ies go in foreign. i think they are the ones that this is aimed out. you mention the phone in that theresa may did with emma barnett today that we featured here in the news channel tonight. they have gone to town on pages eight and nine of the sun. definitely maybe, when she was asked the those question, if she would go to the deal, and what is plan b. clearly she does not want to dig about a plan b. but it depends issues talking to whether she says it is this or no deal or no brexit.
11:33 pm
yes, andi it is this or no deal or no brexit. yes, and i am sure that she is. i hope that she is thinking about a plan be. but she does not want to present that really do anybody, be the cabinet who sheedy needs to convince, the party that she needs to convince, the house of commons, oi’ to convince, the house of commons, or the people. she was to say that this is my way or the highway. anything she understands the fact that changing this deal in fact convincing the european union but anything will be like moving a supertanker. this is not the kind of thing that you can make a small adjustment on. this is the kind of thing where it takes a long time for any movement. but she will not be drawn on whether she will resign. she won't be drawn, crucially, whether people will be economically better or worse off either. that would be a key consideration. she said it would be after brexit. that is right. in one sense, her honesty is right. in one sense, her honesty is commendable. it is an opaque form of honesty, not going quite suffice to say things which we kind of no, that she back to remain in 2016 to reason, and we know that she doesn't
11:34 pm
believe. it is worth saying that it is striking these days to see a spread in a british national paper thatis spread in a british national paper that is hostile to her brexit policy. the daily mail is in favour, as is pretty much the daily express. the sun hasn't. is striking to see a paper that is still striking is of as the paper of the people but that doesn't go far enough. but it is striking that she has refused to say whether she will quit after the referendum. it is slightly strange, this idea, with iridium we are seen from theresa may in the last weeks and months and years is that she will go on and on and on. the david cameron, around, said under no circumstances would he quit, it and then he walked away. how much will be done to her issue stays or goes in she cannot get the deal through? they have been efforts to get the 48 letters to the backbench committee to trigger a vote of confidence. but it depends on the circumstances on
11:35 pm
which it fails. one of the key point is the line that says downing street was formed to rubbish the desire to crush the market and force mps to rethink. that threat forced. there area rethink. that threat forced. there are a lot of comparisons between this vote and the vote in 2008 on the and is packaged in a weather was refused, the markets went haywire, and then people sort of fell in line, effectively, all the different parties the legislature. it will be interesting to see whether that is— obviously they are denying it, but it must be part of the playbook. it is known that they could be an issue thatis is known that they could be an issue that is the first vote fails, the market goes haywire, and out of almost via a set number of mps move to support it. after campbell was talking to tonight. —— alistair campbell. she said some —— he said some back beyond this. liberal with
11:36 pm
a parallel is that it is still two or three weeks until this vote will ta ke or three weeks until this vote will take place. if we keep talking about this possibility of the markets crashing with the deal fails, the markets are clever enough to the fa ct markets are clever enough to the fact that the deal properly fail, and then theirway fact that the deal properly fail, and then their way crash. we are to remember that there are actually traders involved they read newspapers and read the visy paper reviews, and he we are told me the possibility. but downing street are very wary of the idea that it might pass on the first go. they need to be to change the game if they intend to bring it back and say have another vote. we finish with the financial times in their brexit story. eu plays hardball on fishing rights with threats to stymie the transition date. to some people this will be a much more arcane kind of brexit story than immigration. that does not mean that it doesn't mean anything to mp5, does not mean that it doesn't mean anything to mps, in particular
11:37 pm
scottish groups. this is a really intensely felt issue. the eu is saying here that a separate treasuries deal, sevres to all the agreements that theresa may has been to most striking in brussels this week will have to be agreed in brussels this week, including quota shares for european fishermen in british waters and reciprocal access. a lot of scottish voters to back the tories in last year's general election, this is an important point of success in the election and a lot of it were concerned about that. the gunmen will have to sort that out. it is interesting that this is one of the cases where it matters a huge amount for a relatively small amount of people. this can still be massively disruptive. it is in the articles that a fisheries deal as a matter of priority for the eu, but then, crucially, it says warnings on fisheries is part of a 2—page statement drawn up by eu governments
11:38 pm
asa statement drawn up by eu governments as a way to provide reassurance. i think is important because a lot of the focus in this country has been on the that theresa may has two get this deal approved by cabinet, buy the houses — id house of commons, and then get the public involved and get people involved. yes, they having a summit. we are not sure what, doubleta ke. having a summit. we are not sure what, doubletake. but there will be an element of the eu wanted to see britney had to pay your dues. you have got to get a good deal for us. because they have to be responsible to their electorates back home as well. each of the member states will not want to give up too much. we stay with the financial times, but away from brexit, now. oilfalls as donald trump praises riyadh. donald trump is keen to see what prices lower, because they were rising and
11:39 pm
rising, now under $60 a barrel. it was only a few weeks ago when saudi arabia was coming in very huge amount of criticism because of that death of the martian shoji. the journalist who turkey craze was killed in the saudi arabian concert in istanbul. —— jamal killed in the saudi arabian concert in istanbul. ——jamal khashoggi. killed in the saudi arabian concert in istanbul. —— jamal khashoggi.. sure trump supporters will come back and say this is a part of donald trump's new style of government. it cuts through the final, he doesn't move around the issue. he doesn't talk about how this is upsetting and we should consider sanctions. he says purchases of us weapons is more important. oil is more important. so we'll be friends with — will be friends with saudi. i don't know of any other leader in a development security that would not pay lipservice to the of ramifications about this. but this is the position that donald trump has adopted. about this. but this is the position that donald trump has adoptedlj think paying lipservice is the key point. donald trump takes that
11:40 pm
logic, real politic, if you like, to extremes that other leaders don't usually. but his kind just articulating what quite a lot of leaders it, including in america,, oi'i leaders it, including in america,, on an leaders it, including in america,, on an economic and diplomatic relationship with saudi arabia. and it has been like this for years, because of their human rights record. this is not the first thing that many people have criticised saudi arabia for, whether it is human right record, its attitude towards older so different things. this just towards older so different things. thisjust happens towards older so different things. this just happens to have been a specific moment that a lot of people have reacted too, but donald trump is rightly or wrongly not labelled. let's go to the times. this footage has been startling. police rambo pence gangs. a new crackdown was launched. how can be police be doing
11:41 pm
this without there being a mentor of occasions? the rules as i understand ocmsions?m?e§ “i; if! ! “3953539 that ocmsions?m555 5455 55 ! “555555555 that have ocmsions?mee55 5455 55 e “555555555 that have been changed around responsibility for the i given the this. a new freedom has given the opportunity to learn to use what they describe as tactical contact, which is a great euphemism full. the meat, they discover viral videos, this is produced some incredible output on twitter and facebook and other social media sites and on. we see the footage of these things. they work 12 one half thousand motorbike incidents of this type in this year alone. since the tactical co nta ctor was this year alone. since the tactical contactor was introduced. apparently the figures have fallen by 44%. if you were a supporter of this, that isa you were a supporter of this, that is a big impact, notjust on the moped riders. in the public are likely to be supported this. but the police could be, surely, open to claims for personal injury, salt. absolutely. and although the police
11:42 pm
say that no complaints have been made under this operation, the times says that three cases have been referred to the independent office for police conduct, including wongarra teenager was rant and another where a suspect on a scooter broke his leg. on the other hand, it is worth noting that police say this has always been the tactic for pursuing robbers, isjust that in this case they can now do with moped robbers do. so perhaps theyjust adapting. we moved to the front page of the daily mail. just two cheapies for1.4 of the daily mail. just two cheapies for 1.4 million patients. almost eve ryo ne for 1.4 million patients. almost everyone in kent. this is a suitably quite a serious story. 200 patients we re quite a serious story. 200 patients were forced to wait for visits or medical advice because pretty much the entirety of kent had just two gps and a handful of nurses on duty. when you read inside what is perhaps even more astonishing is that only one gp short of what they were meant
11:43 pm
to have. i think the broader question here is whether three gps is adequate for 1400 square miles of people. in a surprise should we be that there are so many on duty, when we know what the situation was years ago. this is one particular period of time. during a sunday morning, the early hours of a sunday morning. this is not the standard case. he don't form burn up in kent, and are switched to gps you want to make an appointment with. but when you read the article, under normal circumstances, they should only be three gps available. it highlights the fact that out of hours gp services is a massive issue and is one that no government really has managed to crack over the last 20 or 30 years. if you don't go to the gp, that means that you go to a knee, placing greater strain there. there is no doubt that help is massively important and this is the kind of
11:44 pm
thing that imports make is important to people on the frontline, people actively. daily mail page five. suing for £2 million, the colonel who was called the skirt by the army colleagues. take issue with this headline, because it belittles what she went through on why she is claiming, too. it is not as because of the nickname. no matter how inappropriate with vigor was. that is right. she was hounded. she said she was hounded out of the armed services because of turning whistleblower to expose medical scandals in the armed forces, particularly with failings in health records for britain's 100 47,000 full—time soldiers, sailors, and full—time soldiers, sailors, and full—time personnel. it is clear that she has made a big disclosure and has been treated — she has been reporting very badly, and for that she has sued. we have legal
11:45 pm
protection in the country for whistleblowers. one of the things from whistleblowers, whistleblowers. one of the things from whistleblowe rs, if whistleblowers. one of the things from whistleblowers, if they were subject to sexist bullying, that merits sums of compensation and it's worth noting the seniority of the ranks at which this took place. she was a colonel, a highflyer in the army and the mail —— the daily mail says if the sex discrimination came comes to tribunal, three senior military figures all have served as a general, m marshall and rear admiral, will be called to give evidence and clearly this might be a scandal which reaches quite high and you should ask quite serious questions about the institutional culture. the reputational damage and attracting a wider range of men and women tojoin the attracting a wider range of men and women to join the armed forces. there is a big drive at the moment to recruit new members to all the armed forces. there is a
11:46 pm
distinguished shoaljo who served in iraq, afghanistan and the balkans. she is one of the most senior female army officers to make allegations against the army and it will be interesting to see how it plays up. two more stories to finish, on the telegraph, russia poses greater threat than isil, says army chief. it's not long ago we were worried about the many militants driving in places like raqqa, and threatening the west. while the threat hasn't gone away, the most recent news around, particularly for the people of salisbury and the elections that it's reported russia has tried to meddle in has shifted. it's russia that once again poses... it's like
11:47 pm
going back to the 19705. we that once again po5e5... it's like going back to the 19705. we now have this state with nuclear weapons, chemical weapons, a huge operation in what is described as non—traditional areas including cyberspace and undersea warfare. this is a broad range of attacks which could occur. the nature of the spy which could occur. the nature of the spy craft i5 which could occur. the nature of the spy craft is somewhat changed since the cold war. as joe says, the russian threat to the east is nothing new but the ways it is manifesting itself as the residents of salisbury will attest, this is the first interview mark carleton smith has given. it's slightly bizarre. i don't know why we need to think about russia and isil, which has designs on being a state which is part of a much broader pan national ideology. they are not the same thing and not occupying the
11:48 pm
same thing and not occupying the same thought space of the people we trust to deal with. thinking about the russian threat, the isil threat. and different responses. the other i55ue and different responses. the other issue is, if you've been a fighter with isi5 or al-qaeda, anyone to come back to the country, that is a conundrum that intelligence agencies here have to deal with which they don't have to worry about with a member of the intelligence agencies in russia. i find it a bit curious that britain is not complacent about the threat that russia poses. i do not think any people, or certainly not think any people, or certainly not many people in this country after the events of the last year, are. it'sa after the events of the last year, are. it's a bit of a strawman the general has said. and the general appearing in the newspapers, this is not unprecedented. and it got to ask
11:49 pm
him something. tell us by turning your cats vegan could risk trouble with the law. i definitely don't ca re with the law. i definitely don't care about the welfare of cats but to the extent that i care about cats, they are just a nuisance. to the extent that i care about cats, they are just a nuisancelj have many twitter followers who disagree with you, i know that for a fa ct. disagree with you, i know that for a fact. they are welcome to ask me about why i dislike cats. vegan cats or the owners of vegan cats, the rspca has warned they could face legal trouble. under the animal welfare act the pets must meet... the possibility of a hefty fine or prison sentence. he described forcing cats to eat meat, that would
11:50 pm
be an unshakeable ideology —— ideology. i know what my cat would choose. don't forget all the front pages are on line on the bbc news website. you can see them seven days a week. you can always watch it later on the bbc iplayer. thank you very much were coming in. good night from all of us. good evening, here's your latest sports news. england's cricketers may have solved their problems at number 3 in the batting order. the returning jonny bairstow starred with a controlled century on the first day of the third test against sri lanka. they won the toss and chose to bat. after a sluggish start, with openers rory burns and keaton jennings both going cheaply, bairstow‘s 110
11:51 pm
and a half century from ben stokes helped guide england to 312/7 at stumps in colombo. it was a day defined by one man and one of sports more unusual celebrations. how often do you see a test century greeted like this? or johnny bairstow, this was one way to silences doubters. he came to the crease in early trouble. peter jennings court, sri lanka sensing a collapse. after being left out of the last match, he set about showing his team—mates what they had been missing together with a blazing 50 from ben stokes, the pair were scattering sri lanka's hopes. the only distraction was a 4—legged one. dog stops play, hardly whatjohnny ba i rstow dog stops play, hardly whatjohnny bairstow needed. that century, that
11:52 pm
raw emotion. the england balcony didn't seem to mind. on 110, he finally succumbed to a weary shot. it was some comeback. from there, england faltered. a clatter of late wickets. moeen ali was successfully clinging on. farfrom perfect, but hoping to turn this intriguing start into another match—winning performance. west brom are up to second in the championship after a 2—1 victory over ipswich at portman road. west brom took the lead through this effort from jay rodriguez in the first half. and they doubled their lead when harvey barnes cut inside to fire in a second. ipswich did pull a goal back late on, but defeat sees them remain bottom of the league and five points off safety. chelsea midfielder
11:53 pm
n'golo kante has signed a new five—year deal at stamford bridge. he's made 81 appearances since joining from leicester two years ago, helping chelsea to the premier league title in his first season and fa cup in his second. kante said he'd "completely improved" as a player and was a key member of france's world cup winning squad in russia this summer. the goalfor us is notjust an important player, it's a determinant player. i am very happy with the new contract. very pleased for him. it's very important i think. australia number 8 david pocock will miss tomorrow's autumn international against england with a neck injury. he failed a fitness test after initially being named in the starting line up for the match at twickenham.
11:54 pm
coach michael cheika said that pocock was "desperate to play" but insisted that the wallabies would not risk his long—term health. finally to some seriously impressive ball skills. norway's erlend fagerli won the street style world final after defeating brazil's ricardo chahini in the men's showdown in warsaw in poland. fagerli adds to his 2018 european and superball crowns to complete his successful year. the panel ofjudges included former world cup winner roberto carlos. it must run in the family, a p pa re ntly it must run in the family, apparently his brother came third. enjoy the rest of your evening. time to check on the weather, the weekend is here. it's been gloomy over the last couple of days. all
