you're watching bbc newsroom live, it's11am and these are the main stories this morning: the family of a woman and daughter shot and killed by their abusive father call for a national campaign to focus on the impact of controlling behaviour in domestic violence situations. we can all play our part, by looking out for the signs in our colleagues, friends and family members. and doing something about it, having the courage to ask what is seen as personal questions. courage to ask what is seen as personal questions. the prime ministerfaces senior mps‘ questions about her brexit deal, and warns mps against trying to frustrate brexit saying they have a clear choice. it's important that we honour the vote, it's important that we deliver on brexit. this is a deal that does that. it delivers on what people voted for. this will protect jobs and people, it will protect the
11:01 am
union and security. drug company bosses warn stockpiling drugs alone isn't enough to guarantee supplies in the event of a no—deal brexit. today we're assessing the impact leaving the eu will have on the country's health provisions. branded unsafe, the hospital trust being investigated over alleged failings in maternity care, is rated inadequate by inspectors. good morning. welcome to bbc newsroom live. the sons of a man who killed their mother and sister say more needs to be done to recognise coercive control as a form of abuse. ryan and luke hart have been speaking as a domestic homicide review into the deaths of claire, who was 50, and charlotte, who was 19, has suggested the case should be placed at the heart of national publicity campaign to focus on the issue lance had killed his daughter and
11:02 am
wife and then killed himself. his sons have told june kelly how they weren't aware coercive control existed until their mother and sister were murdered. we wa nt we want to use our story to encourage anyone who sees anything to ask questions, to find out what's going on. many, many key points, which at the time just seems like, oh, just family issues, we were delivering a personal hell. our father was dangerous. and i think one of the key outcomes is it's not a i—person to solve this issue. we all need to play our part, by looking out for the signs in our colleagues, friends, and family members, and doing something about it, having the courage to ask what
11:03 am
is seen as personal questions. i don't think the family unit should be protected from being interviewed, basically, being asked what is going on? are you 0k? a lot of people felt afraid of asking what was going on, because of the there that our father caused, especially around our family. they were afraid of helping, because of that year, i think it's key for everyone, if you see anything out of the ordinary, to call the experts, to discuss with people who, you know, know the issues, and find out what you can do to help. in many ways, the murder was the key moment for me, when it all unravelled. we were in the police station in spalding, two days after mum and charlotte were killed, i looked behind us and there was a poster that said coercive control, it enabled financial control, isolation, basically, rigidly e nforced consta ntly
11:04 am
isolation, basically, rigidly enforced constantly changing rules, psychological control, then we realised our father's behaviour was pa rt of realised our father's behaviour was part of the control strategy. i don't think there's a single profession which we can narrow down should have done more. there are a few very subtle opportunities to step in, one, as you said, was the gp. mum and charlotte went to their gp, and said they were marriage issues, that was why charlotte had panic attacks and depression. ams health was deteriorating. that wasn't explored. i think we would like gps especially to a law that and ask personal questions. to find out what that means. we learned not to talk about it, in many ways, because when we raised concerns are rife of trying. our father betrayed himself as a nice guy and we looked likely successful at school, and you hear from our father that our life is
11:05 am
great, and you start to think, what have i got to complain about? you're being taught that it's ok. and every time someone steps outside the home and gets a different response, or they don't listen, that makes the person think that being strangers normal. we need this conversation to react appropriately to the signs, unfortunately, every time we failed to respond, we normalise what's going on. eventually people learn that if they aren't going to get out, no hand is going to come, what's the point in talking? we felt like no one was ever going to help us. we took the whole burden on our backs. that was a consequence of no individual action, but backs. that was a consequence of no individualaction, butjust backs. that was a consequence of no individual action, butjust mass violence. the lack of inquisition, and the lack of response to what we felt were leaking issues. we'd never turned up to school with a bruise, we'd never been involved with the police, or involved with
11:06 am
social services, we were top students. then our father killed a mother and sister, that's one of the most serious crimes you can do, and we had no contact, apparently, but if they'd been looking for it, they would have been all over us. no one knew what to look for. the community, the professionals, and what came out of it was horrendous, truly horrific. that shows how serious coercive control is, unfortunately, it was missed by us, and we lived it. it was missed by everyone , and we lived it. it was missed by everyone, and the fact it can happen, and we had no contact with social services at all shows how important this is. those were the sons of a father who shot and killed himself, and there mother and sister. some breaking news about the tv debate on brexit, we are hearing that theresa may has accepted an offer from the bbc of
11:07 am
taking part in a debate on the brexit deal, it will be on sunday the 9th of december, the press office has said, we'vejust the 9th of december, the press office has said, we've just heard, like everyone else, the prime minister has accepted the bbc offered to take part in a debate on the brexit deal on sunday the 9th of december. we are delighted she has agreed and hope to hear soon from the labour party. so far only theresa may has said yes to the offer from the bbc. theresa may has said yes to the offerfrom the bbc. you may be theresa may has said yes to the offer from the bbc. you may be aware that other political parties have been saying, if there is a debate they want to take part in it too. the sm party and plaid cymru say they should take part. theresa may's view is that she and jeremy corbyn represent around 90% of mps. —— the snp. i think we may be able to speak to an assistant political editor in a moment, so we willjust hang on and see if we can go to him. hello,
11:08 am
norman. i was just saying theresa may has agreed, but so far it's just her, as far as we know. we aren't quite there. i know a bit more about the shape of the offer which number ten have accepted, for this head to betweenjeremy corbyn and the prime minister, they won't be the other key figures like nicola sturgeon, just those two. they will also be a parnell, i'm told, of people, who are not front line politicians, business people, sportspeople, people who will be able to ask questions of mr corbyn and theresa may. these will be people who have been identified with one click to go party, they may be prominent brexiteers, or prominent remainders. there will be a parnell, and questions from the public through social media. so people will be able to send in, via twitter,
11:09 am
questions which a moderator will be able to put tojeremy corbyn and theresa may. it's going to take place in birmingham, at 8pm on sunday, so it will replace david attenborough's dynasty is, and be up against i'm a celebrity. a lot of competition. the thinking on the government side, if it goes ahead, and this seemed to be reservations on the labour side, i not had a chance to speak to them directly so i can't flash that out, i can't flash out their remaining issues with this format, but, the bbc, i think, got it because there was a view on the government side that the bbc would address the crux of the issue, namely, the deal. it would be a serious debate about the deal, and it would be focused, that is why the
11:10 am
bbc guarded. there was some suggestion about having the debate on thursday, but in the end it was decided to move it to sunday. it looks like downing street are up for it, the bbc are up for it, but it's not at all clear that labour have agreed to it. we don't quite know what their particular issues are, i imagine they will be opposition from the scottish national party and prominent brexiteers, there was suggestion that they might look at legal routes they could follow to ensure they have a say in the debates too. there is a long way to go before it's all nails down. theresa may is trying to win hearts and minds over the next two weeks, she's been questioned by mps this morning, how did she get on? it was a long session. i'm not entirely sure it was terrifically illuminating, if i'm honest. she was repeatedly pressed by a succession of mps about whether she really would take the country out of the
11:11 am
eu, without a deal. if an agreement was voted down. this follows on from the dire warnings from the government bank of england yesterday, and theresa may seems to intimate that, yes, she would. it was hedged around a bit, but listen to those questions on the subject from labour's yvette cooper. you can't... from labour's yvette cooper. you can't. .. you from labour's yvette cooper. you can't... you can'tjust rely on critical statements for a no hard border, you have to have the arrangements in place to enable no ha rd arrangements in place to enable no hard border to be erected. you still haven't answered the question. sorry, that was the wrong clip there, let's try again. let's see if we can get yvette cooper. you also care immensely about, and know about the security risks to the country, and economic risk to the country, and economic risk to the country if there is no deal. after
11:12 am
knowing you for 20 years, i don't believe that if the ordeal goes down, you are the kind of person who would contemplate taking this country into a no deal situation. and i wrong? it would be a decision for parliament as to whether they accept the deal that i, and the government, have negotiated on behalf of the united kingdom with the european union. i believe it's a good deal. i understand that, my issue is, i don't believe you're the kind of person who could contemplate no deal if you don't get this deal, i don't think you'll do it. i think you'll ta ke think you'll do it. i think you'll take action to avert it. am i wrong in my judgment about take action to avert it. am i wrong in myjudgment about you? i've had a number of questions now about what happens if? my focus is simple, my focus is on the vote. that's fine. there was much more in that sort of thing. you could sense from yvette cooper's response there,
11:13 am
and the response of other mps as well, the sense of frustration and getting theresa may to engage with the possibility that we could actually leave without a deal, also, theresa may refused, really, to give any indication of whether she was considering a plan b. in all honesty, small change out of these two hours or so, hearing in front of the liaison committee. but if you wa nt the liaison committee. but if you want more brexit it looks like you will get more, next sunday, park yourself down in front of the television and tune into bbc one, if the labour party sign up we are on course for a head—to—head between theresa may and the labour leader on that exits deal. a quick final thought, ifjeremy corbyn doesn't sign up will she do it on her own? i don't know. i suppose that's an option, it's not one i suspect would be treated with much enthusiasm in number ten. i think they clearly feel that theresa may code, if you like, better mr corbyn when it comes
11:14 am
to the nitty—gritty, the fine details of the debate. then again, you know, jeremy corbyn showed in the last general election that one should not underestimate him. perhaps that is over emphasising theresa may's ability to win that debate. i don't think that's at all clear. frankly, we don't know, there are quitea clear. frankly, we don't know, there are quite a few things to sort out the details. the format, who will turn up, won't, after this tv debate. fluid, like so many things! leaving the european union without a deal would be bad for britain's security, that's according to the government. currently the uk have access to security and law enforcement databases. but security minister ben wallace says if parliament doesn't agree to theresa may's brexit plan, the uk could lose access. by
11:15 am
by getting borders back it means that our security minister can now do more to keep people safe, and people coming into this country. at the moment i can exclude people from far away, outside europe, the moment i can exclude people from faraway, outside europe, based the moment i can exclude people from far away, outside europe, based on intelligence, as soon as they are in the eu, or married, or become an eu citizen, actually, it's harder to find intelligence that might tell me they have been a foreign fighter. i'm going to need stronger evidence, that's a good thing. we have the thoughts of security correspondent. ben wallace was saying that this could have a real impact on protecting the public in the event ofa protecting the public in the event of a no—deal brexit? yes, i'm here at the international security expo where ben wallace has just laid out his reasons, on security grounds, for backing the
11:16 am
brexit steel. it is an unequivocal backing in his mind, saying, effectively, with it, we are safer. i asked him, effectively, with it, we are safer. iasked him, when effectively, with it, we are safer. i asked him, when it comes to questions, what is the plan b? what are the mitigation measures that you must have started discussing with your eu partners if there is no deal, and he said, well, they are discussing things but i won't give you the details of those. in other words, they are classified. he did go into quite a lot of detail about the various, tools, as he calls them that the eu has, that it shares with britain, such as dna fingerprints, vehicle and passenger lists, things like that. and the deal, he says, and the withdrawal agreement, for the next 2! months, the police and the next 2! months, the police and the public won't necessarily see any great change in security
11:17 am
arrangements, things will continue largely as they are. but that's got to be negotiated. frank, thank you. figures released this morning show estimated net migration from the eu to the uk has fallen to the lowest level since 2012. net migration is the number of people coming to live in the uk for at least 12 months. the bbc‘s head of statistics robert cuffe is here to take us through the details. can you talk as though these figures? buddug big story about what's happening in the eu, that style about 72,000 net over the course of the last year. that's the lowest it's been since 2012. is being driven by the referendum, before the 2016 referendum net migration from the eu was three times higher than that. there's been a really significant drop. that's been compensated for a little bit by what we have seen coming from outside the eu, non—eu net migration is running
11:18 am
at about 2a8,000, that's quite a bit tidier than we've seen in the past, if we go back to just before the referendum, we had 200,000, so it up bya referendum, we had 200,000, so it up by a bit, but not enough to fully match up the drop we've seen from the european union. if you add those two together and take away net migration of brits leaving the uk you end up with a figure of about 273,000, about a quarter of a million more people coming into the country last year than left over all, so that stabilised a little bit. you mentioned the focus on the timing, pre—and post—referendum. tell us more about the factors driving the figures. the bigger story is eu migration. immediately after the referendum which saw a sharp drop in the number of people from the eu coming to look for work, they didn't have a job, we re for work, they didn't have a job, were hoping for something, but were coming on the off chance. that drove some fall, and in the course of the
11:19 am
last year we've seen a fall in people coming from the eu who had a definitejob set people coming from the eu who had a definite job set up in advance. we are starting to see that for two. added to that we are seeing more people from the eu leaving the uk as well. those three factors have contributed to this significant drop. in the background, it's not all one—way traffic, we've had more people coming to the uk from outside the eu, looking for work, or with work already, certainly in a passenger survey, but it's not enough to compensate for what we've seen enough to compensate for what we've seen from the eu. overall migration is definitely down. overall migration is definitely down. a teenager's to be charged with assault, after footage showing a 15—year—old syrian refugee being attacked, was shared on social media and now a video appearing to show the boy's sister being attacked at the same school has emerged. the footage shows the girl being pushed towards a grass verge. her family told the bbc her friends beat her up then took her pink hijab. the first video, showing the boy being dragged to the ground before water is poured onto his face, was filmed last month
11:20 am
according to west yorkshire police. the boy's father, who cannot be named for legal reasons, says the attack had left his son "very tired psychologically". i have my daughter in school, we are muslims, she decided to wear a hijab like her mother. we are surprised that in—school hearse brands beat herup and that in—school hearse brands beat her up and took her hejob. —— her friends beat her up. when i saw what happened to my children, i don't know what to say. barry sheerman, labour mp for huddersfield where the syrian family live, said that it was horrible and regretable case of bullying. i've been dealing with this horrible bullying for months, and then i saw the video on tuesday, and like everybody else, absolutely shocked and appalled, but i have been very
11:21 am
fully engaged because this young man is only 15, his parents are not very confident in the english language. he e—mailed me and told me about the bullying. we immediately got in touch with the headteacher, we got in touch with the council, the children's services, and the police. both incidents happened at a community school in huddersfield. in a letter sent to parents, headteacher trevor bowen said: "the safety and welfare of students is our number one priority and i can assure you that this situation is being taken extremely seriously." back now to the story that is dominating the headlines at the moment — brexit — and throught the day we're looking in more detail at how brexit will affect the nhs, across key areas including staffing, the supply of vital medicines and access to new treatments. the health secretary matt hancock has told mps that, although a "no—deal" scenario is "unlikely, the government is preparing for all eventualities.
11:22 am
let's speak now to our health correspondent catherine burns, who's at milton keynes hospitalfor us. catherine, let's talk more about the impact of brexit on staffing and workforce —— what are your main findings so far? well, no—deal brexit is a thing that eve ryo ne well, no—deal brexit is a thing that everyone is most worried about, obviously. one of the issues as medication, getting vital drugs food patients, there has been a lot of work and preparation with that. the government has asked drug companies to stockpile an extra six weeks on top of what they already stockpiled. that is ongoing. another big issue is staffing, and with good reason. for every 1000 nhs staff, about 56 of them are from the eu. staffing is a big issue for the nhs, generally. there are about 100,000 nurse and
11:23 am
doctor vacancies in england and wales at the minute. i spoke to an associate chief nurse, and asked him about his thoughts on staffing. it's a great concern for us. we have 2596 it's a great concern for us. we have 25% of our nurses from overseas, most from the eu. we have about 15%, so most from the eu. we have about 15%, so any loss would have a major impact on us as a workforce. under the current deal, staff from the eu who already work you would be able to apply to stay, it's not so clear what would happen in a no deal scenario. what staff telling about how they feel? what they are clearly saying his early resolution, we need an early resolution to this, it's not just them, they are part of the community, they are part of the nhs family and they are part of our development opportunity. it's for us to look after them, early resolution means they can make better plans come and we make better plans with them. we need more information on to more
11:24 am
detail. have you had staff leaving since the referendum? yes, we've seen a drop. but our staff are loyal to us. they are loyal to be nhs and want to remain here, they don't want to go back, they want to stay here, they have bought their families appear and wa nt bought their families appear and want to remain with us. one of the theories is that post—brexit may be the uk won't be such an attractive place for eu nationals to come and work, the pound could be weaker or they may not be welcome, could you afford bad when you've got this 13% vacancy rate? no, we can't afford that at all. we would have to broaden our horizons and look overseas. we continue training at home, we have increased the numberof training at home, we have increased the number of student nurses, but it's a great place to come and work, and we are looking at new interventions, to bridge some of those gaps. it won't be enough. we need these nurses from europe to
11:25 am
remain with us, they bring a high quality standard of care. that was matthew sand, earlier in the week the health secretary told the week the health secretary told the health select committee that staffing is a slow burner issue, the government says that its priority now is to make sure that eu staff warrantjune now is to make sure that eu staff warrant june already feel encouraged and welcome to stay. —— eu staff who are here already. we will be back later today answering your questions on brexit. if you want to get in touch the e—mail holiday operator thomas cook has announced annual losses of £163 million. the company had previously released two profit warnings in as many months and in part blamed the prolongued heatwave in the uk this summer. shares prices have dropped 30% this week and dividends have also been suspended. ceo peter frankhauser admits it's been a disappointing 12 months.
11:26 am
we had a very good start to the year, and then what you mentioned, the heatwave, it took us, notjust in northern europe, but on the continent, it's delayed bookings for our customers. then we had much more, much higher levels of discount in the market. undoubtedly, we have a tough year. it's been disappointing but we have to look forward and take the learnings of 2018 and make 2019 better. a hospital trust at the centre of a widening review into poor maternity care has been rated inadequate by inspectors. the care quality commission has deemed the a&e and maternity units at shrewsbury and telford nhs trust as unsafe, and raised questions about the leadership of the organisation. the trust said the report made uncomfortable reading and has vowed to improve. our social affairs correspondent michael buchanan has the details. for 18 months, more and more
11:27 am
families have come forward to raise questions about the maternity care they received at this trust over nearly two decades. so far, more than 200 families have contacted an independent review of maternity services. why did you let me try natural birth, when you knew that there was something wrong with his head? it could have been a completely different story. throughout, the trust have insisted current care is safe, but today's report highlights a catalogue of failures. both maternity and accident and emergency are rated as inadequate for safety. staff say there was a culture of bullying and harassment. some of the executive team do not have the right skills and abilities to provide high—quality, sustainable care. there's no doubt that the leadership has not created the right culture at this organisation. staff told us they were fearful about raising concerns. that's not acceptable. staff need to be free to raise concerns about safety for patients,
11:28 am
and those concerns need to be acted upon. the trust is already in special measures, meaning it is closely monitored by regulators and is getting support from others within the nhs. given the extensive problems, there are growing calls for the chief executive to resign, but simon wright says he won't walk away. i've worked in the nhs for nearly 25 years. my entire professional life has been part of that. i live in this community, my family live in this community. if i didn't think and believe that i was capable of leading this organisation, iwould have already walked away. the trust insist their care will improve, and that there are pockets of good practice within their inadequately rated services. the head of the world meteorological organisation has criticised governments for not doing enough to tackle global warming. petteri talaas said the current generation was the first to understand climate change —— and the last to be able to do anything to stop it. so far, 2018 has been the warmest
11:29 am
year on record, in all three, the last four years, there have been record—breaking, so we have the warmest three years since the 1850s. now it's time for a look at the weather. thanks very much. a wild morning across england and wales, severe gales across the south—west, spreading up to wales, western england, and heading on into southern scotland. disruption has been taking place across this part of the country, it's likely to occur further north as well. severe gales eventually push out into the north sea taking heavy rain with them. it's very windy this afternoon, brighter with sunny spells and heavy showers. i'll feel in england and wales, a bit cooler into scotland
11:30 am
and northern ireland. into tomorrow, another windy day, severe gales in scotland, cool air coming in from the north—west. wintry showers over higher ground, single finger values across the north tomorrow, just about making double figures in the south. a cool feeling across the border. wet and windy spells, raining while in the south. hello this is bbc newsroom live. the headlines. the family of a woman and daughter shot and killed by their abusive father call for a national campaign to focus on the impact of controlling behaviour in cases of domestic violence. it's just one of the recommendations following a review into the deaths of claire hart and her daughter, charlotte. the prime minister has agreed to take part in a televised brexit debate on december the 9th, the labour leaderjeremy corbyn has yet to confirm he will take part. the prime minister refuses to give
11:31 am
an inch as she faces senior mps' questions about her brexit deal, and warns them against trying to frustrate brexit saying they have a clear choice, to accept her deal or leave the eu without one. branded unsafe — the hospital trust being investigated over alleged failings that led to the death of dozens of babies, is rated inadequate by inspectors. more than 200 families have complained about maternity services at the trust. sport now, here's john. good morning. differing results for tottenham and liverpool in the champions league last night. both can still qualify for the last 16 but need a result on the final matchday to stay in the competiton. natalie pirks reports. at wembley, tottenham's job couldn't have been clearer. only a win would do. the londoners were throwing everything at survival. it's hit the bar.
11:32 am
but in an all—or—nothing game, it looked like spurs would have to settle for the latter. he wouldn't be down for long, though. a driving run led to a deft flick from dele. all super—sub eriksen had to do was finish. into the back of the net! now that was what they came to see. it was by no means vintage, but spurs are hanging in there. now, there is just the small matter of barcelona to get past. over in paris, jurgen klopp told his liverpool team to be brave. a win against psg could be enough. but you can't always get what you want. and when liverpool made a hash of the clearance, juan bernat‘s shot deflected into an open net, to give psg an early lead. just how do you stop some of the most expensive, skilful footballers ever assembled ? well, that's one way. but you can't hold back an express train. mbappe, cavani, neymarto finish. it's neymar, and it's 2—0. the highest—scoring brazilian in champions league history had
11:33 am
reason to dance, but his celebrations were short—lived, thanks to angel di maria's wayward limbs. the challenge was rash. james milner‘s penalty on the stroke of half—time was perfection. but it was 2—1, the final score, psg celebrating like they had won the thing. liverpool still have work to do. it's the europa league tonight, chelsea at home to paok solonika, celtic away at rosenborg, and arsenal are in ukraine to play vorskla poltava after uefa moved the game to the capital kiev. that is some 200 miles from the original venue, causing disruption to the 500 fans who've travelled to watch their side. uefa made the decision after martial law was imposed in parts of the country. cracking night in the championship — all kinds of things going on. first off, derby's bradleyjohnson could be in trouble after appearing to bite stoke's joe allen. allen says that's not the case, despite appearing to have his shirt in his mouth.
11:34 am
it all kicked off after a red card for stoke, but they won the game 2—1. and we've got a goal—fest for you. here's every goal from the 5—all draw between aston villa and nottingham forest. forest were two up, villa pulled it back to two two. four goals in there for villa's tammy abraham. there were two disallowed goals aswell. the pre—fight news conference ahead of tyson fury‘s heavyweight title fight with deontay wilder went exatly the way you'd expect. some flash photography coming up. they fight in los angeles on saturday night. i don't really have to say anything, do i? the pictures do all the talking. tyson fury has been absent for two
11:35 am
and half years. and we liked this from social media. england manager gareth southgate is used to getting a tough time at press conferences,b ut probably not quite like this. at press conferences, but probably not quite like this. you tell young players to be fearless, but i'm a bit scared of spiders. are you afraid of anything? well, i'm a little bit afraid of heights. iam too. are you? our pe teacher, mr smedley, is a football coach. can you give me any advice that i can tell them? is he a good football coach? he never shouts at people. he does, sometimes. there you go, that's what you said, because he's nice to people. so i would say, mr smedley, keep doing what you're doing, because you're obviously doing a very good job. that's gareth southgate taking questions from school children at the launch of a new training guide. that's all the sport for now, more in the next hour. the un secretary general has
11:36 am
warned that the rise of nationalism around the world has reduced the political will of some countries to work collectively to tackle global warming. ahead of the 620 summit in argentina, and also a un climate change conference in poland next week, antonio guterres urged all political leaders to make reducing climate change a priority. he was speaking exclusively to our new york correspondent, nick bryant. things are getting worse than predicted, but the political will today is unfortunately not as high as it should be. we have a very important, landmark agreement, the paris agreement. but countries are not doing what they committed to do in paris — or many countries are not doing, not all — what they committed to do in paris. and what was committed in paris is not enough. because it could lead to an increase in temperature at the end of the century of more than three degrees, which would be a total disaster,
11:37 am
we need to come back to half of it and for that we have to have a more ambitious commitment by countries to reduce emissions. it was just over three years ago that the world came together in paris for that historic climate change accord. as you say, emissions have risen for the first time in four years, the gap between where we are and where we need to be has got wider. what is going wrong? i think that it is clear for me that the world is more polarised. we have more and more nationalist approaches being popular and winning elections or having strong election results. we see the trust between public opinion and the institutions — government, political establishments but also international organisations being eroded. and this has led, in my opinion, to a lack of the necessary political will. you are speaking very generally about political leaders. name some names. which nations are letting you down here? which leaders?
11:38 am
the countries which are more relevant in these... first, it is not only at the top level. if you look at the united states, where it is clear that the government has decided to leave the paris agreement, and if you look at the united states, even see a fantastic reaction in the cities, many governors and in civil society, so it's not only the heads of government. it is political leaders at all levels that we need to mobilise. very tellingly, you mention the us government rather than president donald trump. is it a huge problem that the world's most powerful man is a climate change sceptic? what is important is to make sure that the american society is able, independently of the position of the president, to make sure that with the action of cities, with the action of the businesses, with the conscience in this country which is by far the most developed in the world, with that conscience,
11:39 am
that the country in itself is able to meet the engagements that were made by the american government in paris. some news to bring you from kabul. there was an attack yesterday at a security compound. the company is just now saying that five people we re just now saying that five people were killed in that attack, one of them was british, and for afghan nationals killed in that attack on the camp and dashed on the compound. charlie burbage, the managing director of gas said, it is with great sadness that they can confirm that their employees were killed. an unprovoked attack on the compound in kabul. all day we're looking at how brexit will affect health and the nhs, including the supply of vital medicines. lots of you have been getting in touch to ask questions on this —
11:40 am
let's go now to milton keynes hospital, where we're joined by our health editor hugh pym, and our health correspondent catherine burns. over to you. hello. the first question is about one of the most controversial promises during the brexit campaign, and that is from an anonymous person, will the nhs received £350 million extra a week? the short answer is yes, because theresa may has pledged for england an extra £20.5 billion to the nhs by new financial year 2023, and that works out as a bit above £350 million per week. if you add what the devolved administrations will get it comes to a bit more than that. that as a pledge that could have been made anyway, never mind brexit. that figure was the gross amount paid over to the eu which now
11:41 am
won't be paid when britain leaves the eu but it doesn't take into account payments that came the other way. the short answer is yes, but it's a lot more complicated than saying it came from the pledge. a bit murky. here is one from anastacia in london. she says, i have cerebral palsy. how will brexit affect me? it depends what medication anastacia is an. there is a strong chance it is an. there is a strong chance it is made somewhere in the eu and is imported, possibly made in the uk. if it is imported, the pharmaceutical industry is having to prepare for a no—deal brexit by stockpiling. they have said they have six weeks worth of supplies. if there is disruption getting medication in from elsewhere in the uk then the industry are saying that they are concerned about a no deal and more has to be done to ensure continuity of supply. the government says it is working on that. if theresa may's deal goes through, the
11:42 am
industry says it can work with it. there will be continuity of supply of medication and during the transition phase, a lot of the detail about regulation can be worked out. good one. another one which will affect a lot of people. what about the reciprocal health care scheme? it depends whether the deal goes through. if it is voted through and britain leaves the eu and into this transition phase end of 2020, all of the details of the ehic can be worked out and it will be followed up worked out and it will be followed up until the end of twenty20. if you go on holiday elsewhere in the eu, right at the end of 2020 it will still apply into 2021, if your holiday straddles the new year. if there is no deal, we really don't know. it could be, but we don't know, valid after march 29. ehic does cover existing conditions,
11:43 am
so those who think it is too expensive or impossible to get cover could get it through ehic. sure. iand could get it through ehic. sure. i and other people have found it difficult to obtain certain medications already. why is this and will brexit make it worse? it could be that it's nothing to do with brexit and in certain areas of england were commissioning groups have their own policies, they are restricting access to certain medications because they think they are not totally necessary, there are financial constraints. that could be an issue. if it is to do with brexit, it could be that because of stockpiling being publicised, the industry building up the six weeks worth of stocks, that some patients and gps are asking for more. and it could be that they are in slightly short supply, but the government says that it's not necessary. gps
11:44 am
and patients don't need to worry because it's up to pharmaceutical industry to make sure there are supplies of medication. so i think if there are any issues in the area where this person is from, it may be to do with that local commissioning group and nothing to do with brexit. it is as though that message about not stockpiling is getting through. the secretary of state matt hancock said ita the secretary of state matt hancock said it a couple of days ago. if patients and gps start prescribing for longer periods of time and asking for longer dated prescriptions, that means it will create shortages by definition, so the message is don't do that. that is not regarded as a good thing to do. i spoke to quit a few people with diabetes because we make a tiny proportion of the insulin we need in this country so i spoke to one young girl who has diabetes who says she doesn't know what to do because they think if they stockpile, she is making the problem worse but she is worried about not having supplies.
11:45 am
people are quite rightly worried. i spoke to a woman whose son has epilepsy. that medication is made in germany. the message from the industry and the government is, don't worry, we have six weeks worth of supplies. she is saying that doesn't sound very long and nobody can assure me that my son will get his medication. i don't know if the message is getting through and people are understandably worried about what might happen if there is no deal. if there is a deal, there is reassurance that there will be continuity. the problem goes away. i went to a factory in frankfurt where they were starting to stockpile drugs. they said it isn'tjust the six weeks, they have built up ten weeks. hopefully it will be more than that. we have another question, why is the nhs poaching doctors from overseas? our medical schools seeing a decline in applicants? this expression, poaching, is
11:46 am
obviously quite contentious. the nhs has always needed doctors and nurses from overseas going back several decades. they have been welcome and done a fantasticjob and the nhs is hoping that will continue long after next year. 10% of doctors in england, 7% of nurses, come from the eu and more from other parts of the world. this hospital, i am told, has a relationship with the local university and the medical school is based here. there are students from all over the world who come here and stay on and work and gain valuable experience so they can then go back to their home country, maybe in a developing economy, and bring the experience they have gained in the uk to another part of the world which may not have such a well organised health system is the nhs. equally there is a view that we need to be training more staff here in the uk and the government has created more medical school places
11:47 am
in england, but that will take a little while to feed through and there are shortages across the nhs. there will be another asked this session tonight. keep the questions coming. we are also on twitter. in a moment we'll have all the business news, but first the headlines on bbc news. the family of a woman and daughter shot and killed by their abusive father call for a national campaign to focus on the impact of controlling behaviour in cases of domestic violence. the prime minister has agreed to debate brexit on a television debate on sunday 9th december, the labour leaderjeremy corbyn has yet to confirm he will take part. branded unsafe — the hospital trust being investigated over alleged failings in maternity care, is rated inadequate by inspectors. i'm victoria fritz.
11:48 am
in the business news this morning: thomas cook swings to a loss as the heatwave hits sales. britain's competition watchdog launches an investigation into the funeral market afterfinding large price rises enabled, it says, by the extreme vulnerability of customers. three online casino firms have been fined £1a million by the gambling commission uncovered failings in systems designed to prevent money—laundering and protect problem gamblers. the co—op group, one of the uk's biggest funeral services providers, claims it has been cutting prices of funerals in recent years. but the competition watchdog says the whole industry needs a formal investigation after finding that prices, on the whole, have risen by two thirds in the last decade. organising a funeral would now cost them nearly a0% of their annual outgoings — more than they spend on food, clothing and energy combined. earlier i spoke to daniel gordon, senior director at the cma about what the concerns were.
11:49 am
our major worry is that the big chains in particular are capitalising on the vulnerable position people find themselves in. when a loved one dies, the last thing you want to do is turn your mind to financial decisions and you are mind to financial decisions and you a re often mind to financial decisions and you are often under the pressure of time from a hospital or somewhere to make a decision, and it is a big one. as a decision, and it is a big one. as a result, few people make a choice. 1496 a result, few people make a choice. 1a% of people, just 1a% of people make that choice. as a result they are very make that choice. as a result they are very vulnerable to high price rises and we are worried we have seen that over a number of years now to the point where these prices need to the point where these prices need to be addressed. let's talk about thomas cook because sales may have received a boost but profits still took a nosedive over
11:50 am
the last year. the travel agent said underlying earnings before interest and tax fell 23%. who skipped a holiday abroad this year in order to make the most of the summer heatwave? we're not alone. that sizzling summer, right across europe, had a big impact on demand for last minute trips. still, sales were up a fraction. the bigger issue for this company is costs. hehal miah is an investment research analyst with the share centre — an extra 30 million in costs — why? really it is down to restructuring costs. they had the issue after the financial crisis when they had to restructure the business. they have closed a number of stores because more and more people are going online to book holidays and they've also had some receivables they are ha rd to also had some receivables they are hard to write off after some hotels in europe collapsed. it is those one—offs that took them into negative territory in terms of profits but also on the operating
11:51 am
numbers, the fact they had to sell their holidays at far lower prices because the capacity was too high when people were not really demanding it so it affected margins ina big demanding it so it affected margins in a big way. do you think this business model is fundamentally flawed ? do do you think this business model is fundamentally flawed? do people still want to book holidays through travel agents? the trend is people are going online and doing it themselves some more but there is still a good sizeable proportion who will be putting their holidays, going to the high street and taking agents advice. it isn't exactly and taking agents advice. it isn't exa ctly d ea d and taking agents advice. it isn't exactly dead but i think it is something they have to manage slowly and slowly canjason —— slowly transition to cater towards younger and more savvy people who can do it themselves. thank you very much. a quick look at some other stories. brexit has scared off the would—be buyers of intu shopping centres — talking about the trafford centre in manchester and newcastle's metrocentre. potential suitors — a consortium —
11:52 am
that included the canadian property investor brookfield — cited economic uncertainty in the decision to abandon bid talks worth just under £3 billion. the offices of deutsche bank in frankfurt were raided today by criminal investigators involved in a major probe into alleged money laundering. at the core of the investigation is a deutsche unit based in the british virgin islands. in 2016 alone, it dealt with more than 900 clients and processed e311m, according to the prosecutors. kellogg's is to put "traffic light" labelling on most of its cereal packs sold in the uk from january, having previously refused to do so. the system indicates how much salt, sugar or fat foods contain. perhaps good news to parents who are
11:53 am
worried about how much sugar there children are eating. after ten yea rs, 50 acquisitions, one spirited defence of a $1a3bn takeover bid and one failed attempt to move the company's headquarters and main stock market listing to the netherlands, paul polman is stepping down as unilever‘s chief executive. profits at britvic exceeded expectations — consumers embracing a shift to low and zero sugar alternatives. shareholders in dignity, the listed funeral firm, have been spooked by news that the sector faces a formal investigation over prices and services. ten minutes into trading, and dignity‘s shares are down 15%. and the pound under pressure today — hitting weakest level in a week against the euro as the pm defended her brexit proposals before a committee of mps. that's all the business news.
11:54 am
heatwaves linked to climate change pose an increasing danger, which threatens to overwhelm health services around the world, that's according to a new report published in the lancet medicaljournal. researchers found vulnerability to extreme hot weather has risen steadily across the planet since 1990. and the report suggests that people in europe and the eastern mediterranean are particularly at risk — as caroline rigby reports. we already know extreme temperatures can have a devastating impact on the environment and economy, but new research published in the lancet highlights the growing medical challenge posed by climate change right now for all of us. researchers warn rising temperatures linked to global warning threaten to overwhelm hospitals and undermine 50 years of advancements in public health. the report suggests umans have been increasingly vulnerable to heat waves since 1990 and that no country is immune.
11:55 am
but those at risk don't necessarily live where temperatures are highest. those in the uk, europe, east mediterranean are most vulnerable to the extremes of heat as a result of climate change. people in europe, east mediterranean are ageing, we are migrating, growing into the areas worst affected by climate change. heatwaves can be dangerous to our health because there are limits to what the body is able to cope with. continued exposure can lead to heat exhaustion, and symptoms including headaches, tiredness, vomiting and confusion. but heatstroke can cause organ failure and even death. the report also warns of the knock—on effect for the economy. it says 157 million more people experienced heatwaves in 2017 compared to the year 2000. that resulted in 153 billion hours
11:56 am
of labour being lost to heat exposure, an increase of 62 billion hours compared to at the turn of the century. rising temperatures and unseasonably warm weather also aided the spread of infectious diseases, such as cholera and dengue fever, and had a negative impact on food security. but despite the dire warnings, scientists said there is still time to act and health systems can adapt to the challenge. but ultimately, our response to climate change now will be a key factor in shaping the health of nations for centuries to come. caroline rigby, bbc news. in a moment the weather, but first let's look at some of the most striking images of the day. this is the moment a young fan of the pope broke away from his mother to play with the pontiff and one of his guards during a vatican audience. pope francis insisted the boy, who had travelled from argentina with his family, be allowed to continue playing.

and in new york, thousands of people braved the cold to watch the annual lighting of the rockefeller center christmas tree. this year's tree is a 22m tall norway spruce, covered in some 50,000 lights. the tree is topped by a 3 metre wide star. it's the 86th year that the rockefeller center has lit a tree for christmas. you're watching bbc newsroom live. we are getting all of the reaction to what is happening with brexit. theresa may has been speaking to mps this morning, giving evidence to a select committee, answering their questions. we will have the latest analysis and also the latest on the prospect of that debate on the bbc
11:58 am
with jeremy corbyn. it has been an unsettled morning and severe gales were brought to western parts of the country. england and wales were bearing the brunt of the last few hours and strong winds now transforming into the far north of england into southern scotland and some heavy rain as well. this will clear off into the north sea and we should see something brighter. plenty of blustery and heavy showers with hail and thunder. it will remain windy for all but on the plus side it will be marred for england and wales. a little bit cooler into scotla nd and wales. a little bit cooler into scotland and northern ireland. an area of low pressure bringing gales to scotland in particular but also in northern ireland and northern england with cold air moving down from the north—west. these blustery
11:59 am
styles will be wintry over high grounds and single figures. history showers but also good spells of sunshine. into the week it is staying unsettled. a series of weather systems bringing wet and windy weather but remaining mild in the south. you're watching bbc newsroom live, these are today's main stories: the family of a woman and daughter shot and killed by their abusive father call for a national campaign to focus on the impact of controlling behaviour in cases of domestic violence. we can all play our part, by looking out for the signs in our colleagues, friends and family members. and doing something about it. having the courage to ask what is seen as personal questions. the prime minister agrees to take part in a televised brexit debate on sunday 9th december, but speaking on itv‘s this morning
12:00 pm
the labour leader says he preferred itv‘s proposalfor the debate . the itv offer seemed a more sensible one, we want to get the widest possible... so based around people being able to watch the i'm a celebrity final. drug company bosses warn stockpiling drugs alone isn't enough to guarantee supplies in the event of a no—deal brexit. today we're assessing the impact leaving the eu will have on the country's health provisions. the hot summer is blamed as tour operator thomas cook reveals losses of more than £150 million. good morning. welcome to bbc newsroom live. i'm joanna gosling. the case of a father who shot dead his wife and daughter after years of psychologically abusing his family should be at the heart of a national publicity campaign to focus on the issue of coercive control.
12:01 pm
this is just one of the recommendations of a domestic homicide review into the deaths of claire hart and her 19 year old daughter, charlotte. lance hart killed his wife and daughter in spalding in lincolnshire in 2016. he then turned the gun on himself. his two sons, luke and ryan, have told the bbc'sjune kelly how they weren't even aware coercive control existed until their mother and sister were murdered. we want to use our story to encourage anyone who sees anything to ask questions, to find out what's going on. many, many key points, which at the time just seems like, oh, just family issues, we were living a personal hell. our father was dangerous. and i think one of the key outcomes is it's not up to one person to solve this issue. we all need to play our part, by looking out for the signs in our colleagues, friends, and family members, and doing something about it, having the courage to ask
12:02 pm
what is seen as personal questions. i don't think the family unit should be protected from being interviewed, basically, being asked what is going on? are you ok? a lot of people felt afraid of asking what was going on, because of the there that our father caused, especially around our family. they were afraid of helping, because of that year, i think its key for everyone, if you see anything out of the ordinary, to call the experts, to discuss with people who, you know, know the issues, and find out what you can do to help. in many ways, the murder was the key moment for me, when it all unravelled. we were in the police station in spalding, two days after mum and charlotte were killed, i looked behind us and there was a poster that said coercive control, it enabled financial control, isolation, basically,
12:03 pm
rigidly enforced constantly changing rules, psychological control, then we realised our father's behaviour was part of the control strategy. i don't think there's a single profession which we can narrow down should have done more. there are a few very subtle opportunities to step in, one, as you said, was the gp. mum and charlotte went to their gp, and said they were marriage issues, that was why charlotte had panic attacks and depression. mum's health was deteriorating. that wasn't explored. i think we would like gps especially to a law that and ask personal questions. to find out what that means. we learned not to talk about it, in many ways, because when we raised concerns are rife of trying.
12:04 pm
our father portrayed himself as a nice guy and we looked likely successful at school, and you hear from our father that our life is great, and you start to think, what have i got to complain about? you're being taught that it's ok. and every time someone steps outside the home and gets a different response, or they don't listen, that makes the person think that being strangers normal. we need this conversation to react appropriately to the signs, unfortunately, every time we failed to respond, we normalise what's going on. eventually people learn that if they aren't going to get out, no hand is going to come, what's the point in talking? we felt like no one was ever going to help us. we took the whole burden on our backs. that was a consequence of no individual action, but just mass silence. the lack of inquisition, and the lack of response to what we felt were leaking issues. we'd never turned up to school with a bruise, we'd never been involved
12:05 pm
with the police, or involved with social services, we were top students. then our father killed a mother and sister, that's one of the most serious crimes you can do, and we had no contact, apparently, but if they'd been looking for it, they would have been all over us. no one knew what to look for. the community, the professionals, and what came out of it was horrendous, truly horrific. that shows how serious coercive control is, unfortunately, it was missed by us, and we lived it. it was missed by everyone, and the fact it can happen, and we had no contact with social services at all shows how important this is. and in the next half hour we'll be speaking to the founder of the uk's first coercive control conference who says a national awareness campaign is long overdue. theresa may has agree to take part in a televised leaders' debate on sunday 9th december.
12:06 pm
the labour leaderjeremy corbyn is yet to confirm whether he will also take part. the labour party are set to be unhappy about the format and are yet to confirm that jeremy unhappy about the format and are yet to confirm thatjeremy corbyn will ta ke to confirm thatjeremy corbyn will take part. the prime minister's confirmation came shortly after a feisty questioning session with senior mps she refused to speculate about what she will do if mps vote down her brexit deal on the 11th december. mrs may said those calling for a second referendum were attempting to ‘frustrate brexit‘. our assistant political editor norman smith has been following it all very closely, and has more for us from westminster. we start with the debate, jeremy corbyn said he would prefer to do it on itv, not least because of the impact of i'm a celebrity, get me out of here. it reminds me of the brexit debate, eve ryo ne it reminds me of the brexit debate, everyone says they want an agreement
12:07 pm
but we are having a right old song and dance agreeing to sign up to this. this part is this, downing street like the look of the bbc format, and the labour party like the luck of the itv format the bbc format would be to have it on bbc one, at 8pm next sunday, to be held in birmingham alongside mr corbyn and mrs may they would be some names who would contribute to the debate. the itv format, i'm told, would be a straightforward mr corbyn and mrs may head—to—head. that is what the labour side say they would prefer. there's also an argument about the audience, so labour say they believe that itv can offer a bigger, and more socially diverse audience, and are willing to move the programme to schedule it before or after i'm a
12:08 pm
celebrity, get me out of here! , with its massive ratings. the bbc, i understand, are prepared to schedule their debate after the results edition of strictly come dancing, also a huge audience. so we are involved in this showdown between the bbc and itv, a bit like brexit, both sides, mr corbyn and mrs may are waiting to see who blinks first. on this morning mr corbyn indicated that he favoured the itv bed. all i know is that i've accepted the idea of a debate, i accepted that on sunday night as soon as the prime minister made the suggestion. the itv offer seems sensible, it reaches a wider audience and be timing looked good because it's not inconveniencing people who wish to watch other things. one should always have respect for the viewers.
12:09 pm
we also want to get the widest... so this is based around people being able to watch the i'm a celebrity, get me out of here! final? indeed so! away from the tv schedules mr corbyn confirmed that labour are going to oppose theresa may's deal, but also suggested that there is no prospect of parliament accepting a no deal outcome, this is the scenario theresa may has sketched out in her agreement as voted down. this comes the day after the government bank of england sketched out that berry, bleak, scenario about leaving the eu without an agreement. they suggested that unemployment will rise by more than 1 million, house prices will crash by 30%, and we will be in the worst recession since the 1930s. mr corbyn says this morning there was no way parliament would allow that to happen. the prime minister really has to recognise,... no deal is more expensive? the
12:10 pm
alternative is that no deal, nobody will allow no deal. how could we? at the same time, perhaps a little earlier, theresa may was repeatedly pressed at a meeting of the liaison committee over whether she, in the wa ke committee over whether she, in the wake of this grim warning from the bank, would also now rule out leaving without a deal. she certainly didn't rule it out, but was rather ambiguous in her answers. she seemed to leave open the option out if her dealer was voted down, we could still leave the eu without any deal. here she is being pressed by yvette cooper. knowing you for 20 years, ijust don't believe that if your deal goes down, you are the kind of person who would contemplate taking this country into a no deal situation. am i wrong? the decision... it would be a
12:11 pm
decision for parliament about whether they accept the deal and allow the government to negotiate. i believe it's a good deal.|j suspect the reason theresa may is not prepared to take a no deal outcome off the table is because she wa nts to outcome off the table is because she wants to maximise pressure on mps before that crucial vote to ensure that they have two decide whether they are going tobacco deal, or potentially, risk economic shock to the country. —— going to back her deal. five gas employees, including one briton and four afghan nationals, have been killed in a taliban attack on a compound in kabul. 32 others were injured during the attack on one of the british security firm's sites. gas says next of kin have been informed and it's offering support and counselling to all of those affected. a record number of citizens from european union countries left the uk last year. it brings the estimated net migration from the eu
12:12 pm
to the uk to its lowest level since 2012. but the figures from the office for national statistics also show that an increasing number of people from outside the eu are coming to live in britain. public health england says the uk has met united nations targets on the diagnosis, treatment and transmission of hiv for the first time. the improvement, which is two years ahead of the un's deadline, is down to condom use, increased testing and the availability of the virus—prevention drug, prep. hiv charities say real progress is being made in the fight against hiv. one in three eighteen—year—olds in england, wales and northern ireland, who applied to university this year, received some form of unconditional offer. the figures, from the university admissions service ucas, have prompted concern about the impact of increased competition between universities. the education secretary damian hinds says the figures is "disturbing". kellogg's is to adopt traffic light labelling for most of its cereal packaging from early
12:13 pm
next year.the food giant says the voluntary labels will appear on its products in the uk after the firm surveyed thousands of customers. the majority said the colour—coded scheme helped them make healthier food choices. traffic light labelling was adopted by the government in 2013 — but the system remains voluntary. more on today's main stories coming up on newsroom live here on the bbc news channel, but now we say goodbye to viewers on bbc two. a hospital trust at the centre of a widening review into poor maternity care has been rated inadequate by inspectors. the care quality commission has deemed the a&e and maternity units at shrewsbury and telford nhs trust as unsafe, and raised questions about the leadership of the organisation. the trust said the report made uncomfortable reading and has vowed to improve. our social affairs correspondent michael buchanan has the details. for 18 months, more and more families have come forward to raise
12:14 pm
questions about the maternity care they received at this trust over nearly two decades. so far, more than 200 families have contacted an independent review of maternity services. why did you let me try natural birth, when you knew that there was something wrong with his head? it could have been a completely different story. throughout, the trust have insisted current care is safe, but today's report highlights a catalogue of failures. both maternity and accident and emergency are rated as inadequate for safety. staff say there was a culture of bullying and harassment. some of the executive team do not have the right skills and abilities to provide high—quality, sustainable care. there's no doubt that the leadership has not created the right culture at this organisation. staff told us they were fearful about raising concerns. that's not acceptable. staff need to be free to raise concerns about safety for patients, and those concerns need to be acted upon. the trust is already in special measures, meaning it is closely monitored
12:15 pm
by regulators and is getting support from others within the nhs. given the extensive problems, there are growing calls for the chief executive to resign, but simon wright says he won't walk away. i've worked in the nhs for nearly 25 years. my entire professional life has been part of that. i live in this community, my family live in this community. if i didn't think and believe that i was capable of leading this organisation, iwould have already walked away. the trust insist their care will improve, and that there are pockets of good practice within their inadequately rated services. the family of a woman underwater shot by their father the prime minister has agreed to debate brexit on a television debate on sunday the 9th of december, on

12:17 pm
wasn't initially sure that the stadium here, the big olympic stadium was actually ready to host the games. last night there was a bit of uncertainty. the game will definitely go ahead, 8pm tonight. it will be —10 degrees in kiev, it's going to be one of those games where the players put the gloves on and wrap up warm. it won't be much fun. no, indeed. and as we know the travel disruption at arsenal have experienced, some were already in the original venue, and now they've had to move to kiev. yes, arsenal fa ns had to move to kiev. yes, arsenal fans have already made this trip. it isa fans have already made this trip. it is a feature like this where you earn your spurs as a sporting fun if you make the trip to the original venue. you make the trip to the original venue. several hundred fans have come here. it is a disruption, but
12:18 pm
most of them and have been coming through here anyway on the way to this game and they will find better bars and hotels here. a bit of destruction for them, but i think they will remember when they came here. perhaps, disappointingly for some of them's or love arsenal's bigger stars haven't made this trip. all of those who have come to kiev to see arsenal play will mostly see the younger players, the next generation, rather than the big stars who turn out every week. differing results for tottenham and liverpool in the champions league last night. both can still qualify for the last 16 but need a result on the final matchday to stay in the competiton. natalie pirks reports. now they face barcelona next.

liverpool have two beat mapperley in a couple of weeks or they are out. that's after they were outplayed by paris st germain, they had an expensive team of stars in that liverpool squad, but they lost to one in paris. that's all from us for now, i'm back with your next update at1:30pm. holiday operator thomas cook has announced annual losses of £163 million. the company had previously released two profit warnings in as many months and in part blamed the prolongued heatwave in the uk this summer. shares prices have dropped 30% this week and dividends have also been suspended. ceo peter frankhauser admits it's been a disappointing 12 months. we had a very good start to the year, and then what you mentioned, the heatwave, it took us, notjust in northern europe, but on the continent, it's delayed bookings
12:20 pm
for our customers. then we had much more, much higher levels of discount in the market. undoubtedly, we have a tough year. it's been disappointing but we have to look forward and take the learnings of 2018 and make 2019 better. let's talk more about this with an expert on the travel industry. welcome. as a company that's been going for a long time it has had ups and downs, how do you see what is happening at the moment? it's rather sad, actually. it is probably the most established company, the most established brand, almost like a national treasure. we don't want to lose the strong british brands in the market, however, i think external factors like the heatwave, blaming them is
12:21 pm
disingenuous. they have been hiccups under a lot of concerns about thomas cook over recent years. it has changed in terms of its acquisitions, what it operates, and one has to wonder, can it compete in the holy digital travel world, where the holy digital travel world, where the demographic, the consumer demographic for travel is getting even younger. as we know, the younger market would more likely be focused on creating their own self managed travel. those elements have been in play for a long time, haven't they? it's been very profitable, how has it been adopting much, or is itjust one particular audience, and the other audience doesn't matter so much? all audiences matter, obviously. clearly, it's doing a lot right. i think what's really encouraging is
12:22 pm
that next year plan to increase its hotel brand with more hotels opening. i think that's positive, to improve the real estate portfolio of hotels. i'm a bit concerned on the airline flight, because it does operate long haul as well as to europe, and it has a good modern fleet of airbus aircraft, however, there is so much competition from low—cost carrier markets, the arlene, agile, the airline market has its own dynamics, with thomas cook is operating a broader portfolio, it's a large travel entity. we were talking just before we went on air, and you said it's been going since 18a1, which is remarkable, isn't it? particularly for a company operating in such a changing market. yes, i mean, so, it's been operating since the 19th century, and i think
12:23 pm
that premise of commie taking passengers on railway lines to the coast, that's very contemporary for that time. but the travel industry is facing massive up even at the time. airlines are clawing back and a lot of them are going under. the hotel market is a growth market, that's encouraging, but can thomas cook survive purely on one aspect of its portfolio, and communal, it needs to be firing on all pistons as it were, can it do that, and would be sustainable anyway? thank you for giving us your views, sally gethin. we go back to the news dominating the news at the moment, brexit. throughout the day will be looking in more detail at how brexit will affect the nhs across key areas including staffing, the supply of medicines, and access to new treatment. the health secretary told
12:24 pm
mps that allowing no deal scenario is unlikely, the government is preparing for all eventualities. we go to our health correspondent catherine burns who is in milton keynes for us. catherine, over to you. yes, we are here all day answering people's questions about brexit and how. it's everything from do patients need to worry in the event of no—deal brexit, do they need to stockpile medication? for example, medications that haven't even been developed yet, will we get those as quickly as the rest of the eu? then there's cost, will it benefit cost there's cost, will it benefit cost the nhs, the other really big we're looking at is staffing. this hospital is busy and vibrant with patients coming and going. just under 10% of the staff from the u. earlier i spoke to the chief executive here, professorjo harrison, to get his take. i'm really worried about the
12:25 pm
workforce , i'm really worried about the workforce, we have a number of european and international staff who work here, and across the nhs. it's really important to those staff feel welcomed, feel valued, and we continue to attract and retain the best medical staff for the nhs. just under 10% of your staff come from the eu, what are your thoughts on much? number of our staff left straight after the european union vote. since then we've tried to ensure the staff feel welcome here, we continue to train and invest in staff, and indeed, we continue to look to attract other staff from both europe and the international market to work in the nhs. the other issue that comes up is the worry that people aren't getting vital medications immediately after a no—deal brexit? what you think about? we've seen a lot of planning coming from. they nhs ordering a huge amount of work to make sure we have everything we need to treat a
12:26 pm
patient safely after we leave on the 29th. i'm certain that locally and nationally, we will continue to offer the best care we possibly can to our patients after that time. can you think of any positives for brexit? i think it's too early. we've got a fantastic relationship with our european partners in terms of research, protocols that we have in place for treating patients, we are unsure at the moment how that is going to play out over the next few years, and it's really important that we get that clarity as soon as we possibly can. that was professor jo harrison, i'm joined now by two visitors to the hospital who will did leave. valerie and frank, what was your reasons for wanting to leave ? was your reasons for wanting to leave? we need to be able to run our country the way it should be. we don't want to be dictated to by
12:27 pm
other people. the health system is overstretched, majorly, we do have nurses and doctors that come over from the eu, and they are fantastic at what they do. without them, we would be struggling even more with our nhs. it's because of the lack of doctors and nurses. you need to look after the elderly we think? we need to look after the elderly war. there is always this rush to get them out of hospital too soon. there is a shortage of beds, and it's a lot of...i shortage of beds, and it's a lot of... i don't like to say, but a lot of... i don't like to say, but a lot of foreign people come over to take up of foreign people come over to take up space is more than what should be doing. that's quite a commons perception, 58% of the public agree with you, but the government's committee said that isn't really the
12:28 pm
case. actually, when it comes to migrants coming in they tend to be quite young and healthy and they don't attend will be hugely energised. the one exception would be maternity. frank, what about you? immigration. we are bringing all these young people in from eastern europe, they are taking jobs that are young people should be having, taking houses that are young people should be looking to buy, there is no way now that our young people can afford to put a deposit on a house, let alone buy one. if we weren't so overcrowded, we are full up already. there isn't room for any more people to come in. some of the towns in norfolk, and those parts, wisbech, one third of the population now is taken up by immigrants. the young people are being pushed out, they've got no chance of raising a family, buying a house or anything. it's very, very sad. when we voted to
12:29 pm
join the common market in 1973, to join, because i thought it was better to be doing trade than to be fighting one another. i'm old enough to rememberthe war. fighting one another. i'm old enough to remember the war. i went to the waras to remember the war. i went to the war as a child. you know, i think it's wrong that all these young people should be coming in when our young people should be getting apprenticeships, which the government haven't cottoned onto until very recently. so that they can compete in the world, we should be able to do trade in the world as well, all over the world. frank, i'm going to have two... thank you both of you. actually the government does wa nt to of you. actually the government does want to bring in a skilled migrant system, so if you look at hospitals for example, porters, health care assistants, they are the kind of people that wouldn't be able to come in. it will be interesting to see what happens after brexit. time for a weather forecast.
12:30 pm
a rather turbulent start to the day with gusts of winds in excess of 70 mph. that was in exposed areas. it is windy just about everywhere mph. that was in exposed areas. it is windyjust about everywhere in england and wales and into southern scotla nd england and wales and into southern scotland so that, combined with heavy rain, is giving quite poor driving conditions. it wasn't great when i drove a couple of hours ago. very wet weather across parts of scotland. that should clear through as we go through parts of the afternoon, allowing showers to follow. quite heavy showers at that. at this time of year you can expect hailand at this time of year you can expect hail and thunder and longer spells of rain, coming back into scotland later in the day and quite strong winds in the north through the night. nothing exceptional as we are in the autumn. slightly cold night but no great frost were restocked cooler than it has been in recent
12:31 pm
nights. and slightly less mild tomorrow. plenty more showers and hopefully a bit more sunshine tomorrow, slightly less windy as well. hello, this is bbc newsroom live. the headlines: the family of a woman and daughter shot and killed by their abusive father call for a national campaign to focus on the impact of controlling behaviour in cases of domestic violence. it's also one of the recommendations following a review into the deaths of claire hart and her daughter, charlotte. the prime minister has agreed to take part in a televised brexit debate on december the 9th, the labour leaderjeremy corbyn has yet to confirm he will take part. the prime minister refuses to give an inch as she faces senior mps' questions about her brexit deal, and warns them against trying to frustrate brexit saying they have a clear choice, to accept her deal or leave the eu without one. branded unsafe —
12:32 pm
the hospital trust being investigated over alleged failings that led to the death of dozens of babies, is rated inadequate by inspectors. more than 200 families have complained about maternity services at the trust. the hot summer is blamed as tour operator thomas cook reveals losses of more than £150 million. shares in the company have fallen 71%in the calendar year to date, with 20% in november alone. the case of a father who shot dead his wife and daughter after years of psychologically abusing his family should be at the heart of a national publicity campaign to focus on the issue of coercive control. this is just one of the recommendations of a domestic homicide review into the deaths of claire hart and her 19—year—old daughter, charlotte. lance hart killed his wife and daughter in spalding in lincolnshire in 2016. he then turned the gun on himself.
12:33 pm
his two sons, luke and ryan, have told the bbc'sjune kelly how they weren't even aware coercive control existed until their mother and sister were murdered. we learned not to talk about it, in many ways, because when we raised concerns are rife of trying. our father betrayed himself as a nice guy and we looked likely our father betrayed himself as a nice guy and we looked like we we re successful at school, and you hear from our father that our life is great, and you start to think, what have i got to complain about? you're being taught that it's ok. and every time someone steps outside the home and gets a different response, or they don't listen, that makes the person think that the experience is normal. we need this conversation to react appropriately to the signs, unfortunately, every time we failed to respond, we normalise what's going on. luke's brother ryan said they only became aware of coercive control after seeing a poster
12:34 pm
in a police station after his mum and sister had been killed. he says family and friends were scared to intervene. we all need to play our part, by looking out for the signs in our colleagues, friends, and family members, and doing something about it, having the courage to ask what is seen as personal questions. i don't think the family unit should be protected from being interviewed, basically, being asked what is going on? are you ok? a lot of people felt afraid of asking what was going on, because of the fear that our father caused, especially around our family. they were afraid of helping, because of that fear, i think it's key for everyone, if you see anything out of the ordinary, to call the experts, to discuss with people who, you know, know the issues, and find out what you can do to help. we are hoping to speak shortly to
12:35 pm
the founder of the conference of coercive control. a few technical issues with connecting with her at the moment but we are hoping to get her thoughts shortly. a teenager's to be charged with assault, after footage showing a 15—year—old syrian refugee being attacked, was shared on social media — and now a video appearing to show the boy's sister being attacked at the same school has emerged. the footage shows the girl being pushed towards a grass verge. her family told the bbc her friends beat her up then took her pink hijab. the first video, showing the boy being dragged to the ground before water is poured onto his face, was filmed last month according to west yorkshire police. the boy's father, who cannot be named for legal reasons, says the attack had left his son "very tired psychologically". translation: i have my daughter in school, we are muslims, she decided to wear a hijab
12:36 pm
like her mother. we are surprised that in school her friends beat her up, and took her hijab. when i saw what happened to my children, i don't know what to say. barry sheerman, labour mp for huddersfield where the syrian family live, described his reaction to seeing the video for the first time. i've been dealing with this horrible bullying for months, and then i saw the video on tuesday, and like everybody else, absolutely shocked and appalled, but i have been very fully engaged because this young man is only 15, his parents are not very confident in the english language. he e—mailed me and told me about the bullying. we immediately got in touch with the headteacher, we got in touch with the council, the children's services, and the police. both incidents happened
12:37 pm
at almondbury community school in huddersfield. in a letter sent to parents, headteacher trevor bowen said: "the safety and welfare of students is our number one priority and i can assure you that this situation is being taken extremely seriously." climate scientists are warning that the long—term warming of the world's climate is continuing. in a report ahead of a un climate conference in poland next week, they say the last four years have been the hottest on record and that without change, global heatwaves threaten to overwhelm health services around the world. i'm joined now by professor elizabeth robinson from the reading university school of agriculture, policy, and development. thank you forjoining us. how concerned are you about the prospect of the impact on people's health? we are very concerned. particularly because of the health impacts that
12:38 pm
are being felt now. they are being felt across the globe in higher and lower income countries and there are particular groups that are particularly vulnerable. the over 65 is, people with outdoorjobs, labourers or agricultural workers. we are concerned about people with existing health conditions. what are the already being felt, and haveis what are the already being felt, and have is that impacting resources and finances? —— and how is that impacting? if we look at health services for example. already we are seeing increasing admissions to hospital is due to people suffering from heat stress. if we consider this summer in the uk, it is lovely to have a warm summer but there were 100 additional deaths due to heat this summer in the uk alone, so what this does is put pressure on our health services that are already very stretched. if you look more broadly about the impact of climate change in terms of extreme weather, that harms
12:39 pm
ambulances reaching hospitals. then we are going to have to look at air conditioning, which puts pressure on the grid. if we look at old people in care homes, they are exposed to heat. how are we going to cope with that? obviously, the answer is to try to control rising heat. but otherwise, we just have to adapt, do we? mitigation and adaptation are both very important. we have to adapt to climate change because it is happening now. we have to mitigate because it will be harder to adapt in the future. when we consider burning fossilfuels, in the future. when we consider burning fossil fuels, that is not only leading to the emission of climate change gases and global warming but it is leading to pollution. children in the uk are now being asked to wear face masks to protect from pollution. reducing emissions will impact health outcomes now. and what about spread of disease as well? yes, we are finding that exposure of
12:40 pm
diseases such as malaria and cholera are increasing so whilst we may not see increasing incidences of cholera or malaria as it is, areas that are susceptible are increasing geographically and increasing deaths are picking already. thank you. —— picking up already. the case of a father who shot dead his wife and daughter after years of psychologically abusing his family should be at the heart of a national publicity campaign to focus on the issue of coercive control. this is just one of the recommendations of a domestic homicide review into the deaths of claire hart and her 19—year—old daughter, charlotte. lance hart killed his wife and daughter in spalding in lincolnshire in 2016. he then turned the gun on himself. let's speak now to min grob, she's experienced coercive control herself and set up the uk's first conference on this issue, the fifth of which was held just last week. thank you very much forjoining us. we have heard luke and ryan speaking
12:41 pm
incredibly eloquently about the situation that they lived through and the reaction that they ever got if they spoke about it. they said that they were effectively silenced by themselves. what are your thoughts on coercive control, based on your experiences? my on your experiences? my thoughts are that it's great that there is a crime now. it has been criminalised. but not enough is known about it with the general public. there is training and police are getting training, along with the cps. there is more awareness when it comes to front—line workers who have to deal with victims of abuse but the general public is generally in the general public is generally in the dark, and that really concerns me. why is that? one of the things they are saying is that people around those who are in coercive controlling relationships should kind of ask questions, but actually,
12:42 pm
when do people know whether they should ask questions if they are not really talking about it? they can only really ask questions if there is something there to ask questions about. coercive control is invisible in plain sight. it hides below the radar and it is not obvious. it is what they call a drip, dripform obvious. it is what they call a drip, drip form of abuse. obvious. it is what they call a drip, dripform ofabuse. it humiliates over time. there needs to be much greater awareness of the abuse in the initial stages so that people can recognise the signs before it gets to the stage where, in the case of that family, somebody ends up killing someone. what impact did it have on you? could you repeat that? what impact did coercive control have on you? at the time, i thought it was me. i thought i was going mad. i was led to believe i was going mad. i was led to believe it was all me. there
12:43 pm
was no reason to disbelieve it. there was a lot of sleep deprivation and gas lighting, where your sense of reality is being distorted so you believe you are going mad. and i didn't understand the extent of the control until it will actually put to me by the police, actually. and how did they deal with it? it took a long time to understand what had happened and to understand what had happened and to understand what i had mistaken as signs of being ina what i had mistaken as signs of being in a loving, caring relationship were actually signs of control. and it meant that i had to literally relive the whole of the relationship, rewind and replay it through a different lens, which was very disorienting, very confusing, not just for myself very disorienting, very confusing, notjust for myself but very disorienting, very confusing, not just for myself but for the people i was trying to explain it
12:44 pm
to. that is one of the reasons it is so important the general public understands just how insidious coercive control is. so that they can understand that victims of it who do come out of it and realised thatis who do come out of it and realised that is the situation they've been m, that is the situation they've been in, they may well be disoriented and confused, and they may well have difficulty articulating what they have experienced. that is something that plays straight into the perpetrator‘s hanns. how did you end up getting your strength and getting to the stage where you are running these conferences on coercive control? obviously you say you went to the police and they were aware enough and dealt with you in a helpful way? yes. i reported that he was stalking and their reaction was, well, what do you expect us to do about it? change yourjob, leave behind the back door... that's night i didn't sleep because i was angry and i knew
12:45 pm
at that point coercive control wasn't a crime. there was a serious crime bill but it wasn't enacted so i stayed up all night thinking, i have to do something. people are clueless, the police are clueless and nobody understands anything. by 10am the next morning i had organised a venue and i had a couple of speakers. i havejust had organised a venue and i had a couple of speakers. i have just had the fifth conference at goldsmiths university and the sixth one is going to be in liverpool next year. i have just carried going to be in liverpool next year. i havejust carried on raising awareness, purely because it is a huge subject. the thing about coercive control is unique to speak to the victim and that is the thing that i think most people who are trying to learn about its struggle with. it is the broadness of it. thank you very much for your time.
12:46 pm
thank you very much for your time. thank you very much for your time. thank you for asking me. more now on the brexit leaders' debate. earlier, the prime minister confirmed that she will be taking part in the bbc‘s televised debate on 9th december. the problem is there is nobody currently agreeing to debate with her. the labour leaderjeremy corbyn said he accepts the inivitation in principle, but prefers itv‘s format. well, joining us from westminster to discuss this further is the liberal democrat mp, alistair carmichael. and presumably, you are going to say that actually, if there is a debate you want the lib dems. in order to have a debate you need to have a disagreement. theresa may says that brexit must goes ahead and jeremy corbyn says it cannot be stopped. there is not much of a debate where there is no disagreement. the real debate on this issue is between people like theresa may and jeremy corbyn on one side and the liberal democrats and others who say, now that we know what the deal is, the final say must
12:47 pm
be given to the people in a people's vote. that would be a meaningful debate. at the moment we see no sign of the bbc and others wanting to ta ke of the bbc and others wanting to take it on. i think we need to hear from them that why it shouldn't be a meaningful debate. these debates normally happen prior to the public getting to vote on something, whether it's a referendum ora something, whether it's a referendum or a general election. this is a debate without the prospect of there being any public vote and said, theresa may says actually between them, jeremy corbyn and she represents around 90% of mps in the commons. mps will be voting after all. mps will be voting, and we will have a debate in the house of commons. it is good because it helps build public engagement on the issue if you have a debate on television but that debate has got to be meaningful. a few weeks ago you had 700,000 people marching in the streets of london, is showing the strength and growing strength of the
12:48 pm
support for people being given the final say in support for people being given the finalsay ina support for people being given the final say in a people's vote. for the bbc now to try and exclude that point of view from a television debate, i'm afraid it falls short of the public service remit that you have been given, for which you are paid by the public purse. can you explain how it is being said that mps will not allow for there to bea that mps will not allow for there to be a "no deal" brexit? when if mps don't vote in favour of the deal theresa may has got, there is a prospect... there is no prospect of renegotiating, is there a? is it that deal or nothing? theresa may is trying to bully and scare the house of commons into supporting a dealfor which there is precious little support at the moment by waving the shroud of saying there will be a "no deal" brexit if you don't take my spectacularly bad deal. we would say in fact that theresa may has the power to avoid a
12:49 pm
"no deal" brexit in her own hands. she could take it off the table. if she will not take it off the table then parliament must take it off the table for her. this is too serious, too important to be managed through the prism of party interests. this is something where the national interests must come first. thank you. spain says it is in talks with italy and malta to try and find a port where a spanish fishing vessel carrying 12 migrants can dock. the boat has been stranded in the mediterranean for a week after rescuing the african migrants and there are concerns for both their immediate well—being and their future safety. kathryn armstrong reports. a difficult conversation over what next for a dozen african migrants rescued at sea. the second captain of this spanish fishing vessel describing the plight of those they came to the aid of last week. those brought aboard the nuestra madre loreto were reportedly fleeing from the libyan coast guard, although what actually happened is yet to be verified. translation: the libyans
12:50 pm
managed to get to the boat. they took the people who were on board. then they punctured the rubber dinghy to destroy it and then they left, leaving the people in the water while the fishermen were calling them, warning them that there were people in the water, to stop and rescue them. and they didn't do it. spain initially asked libya to take charge of the migrants, as it was the nearest country to the spot where they were rescued. however the un refugee agency has repeatedly said the country is not safe for migrants. now the spanish government is trying to negotiate with malta and italy but both countries have reportedly refused to get involved so far. it's the latest in a series of stand—offs involving asylum seekers. sincejune, several rescue vessels have been left stranded as eu nations debate who should be responsible for those fleeing their homeland. meanwhile human rights groups are calling for the boat to be
12:51 pm
allowed to dock as soon as possible. conditions are cramped and the vessel had to move away from libya towards the italian island of lampedusa because of worsening weather. but while the negotiations continue it's unclear how much longer it will take to find a port willing to accept these migrants. kathryn armstrong, bbc news. after hanging up his winter cloak for the final time game of thrones star kit harrington has made the journey all the way from westeros, to london's west end. the final series will be screened in the new year, but before that the actor's treading the boards in a production of the sam shepherd play true west. he's been telling tim muffett about the glamour of the london stage. it's good to see you. we're on stage at the vaudeville theatre. some serious ‘70s action going on. not least my moustache. the play's set in 1979. no one's going to go
12:52 pm
and see a film like that. it's a movie. there's a big difference. they are two brothers in their mother's house outside of la, they're polar opposites as people. i've just about had it with the insults. this story has a lot of violence. what's it been like to rehearse and perform ? it's fun. i love a fight scene. you've done a few in your time. i have done a few, yeah. you have this thing where you get thrown across the stage, and he has a golf club which he stops at my face, which gets a nice reaction from the audience. you must have done something, threatened him or something. what did you do? how does it compare performing on stage in front of a live audience compared with making a massive tv show like game of thrones? people think that's the glamorous part. i find this the glamorous part. myjob is to come in and play to the west end audience every night. that for me is quite glamorous.
12:53 pm
whereas thrones was quite often outside, in some foreign country, away from your mates, in a muddy field. you've obviously filmed the last series of game of thrones, going out in the new year. what was it like when they said "cut" for the last time in yourfinal scene? i burst into tears, you know. it's a weird thing. i'm not sad about it ending. i feeljoyous about it ending, and having completed it. but it doesn't make it any less emotional. and the first pilot of game of thrones was described by the producers as a disaster. what did you make of it when you first made it? i didn't know what i was doing. i was like, this is fun. i'm in a tv show. i had no idea if it was going to be a big success or anything. apparently it was a disaster. i still haven't seen it. they blackmail me every now and again with threatening that they'll release parts on youtube,
12:54 pm
because it was terrible and i had this awful wig. and the fact that it was such a global phenomenon, are there countries where you go to where you don't get recognised? not that i have found. although this is helping. you know, iam now... i am recognised a lot less now i have less hair and less fur on my face. in a moment it's time for the one o'clock news with reeta chakrabarti but first it's time for a look another turbulent start to the day for many and although the rain is starting to clear away, the winds will abate as we go through the early hours of the evening. at the moment that coronation of heavy rain and gales is making for some hazardous travel conditions. some of
12:55 pm
the gusts of wind you can see where 0k. the gusts of wind you can see where ok. most of them were in exposed locations. yeovil was actually quite fine. it has been a windy old day. as you can see, this is how it looked a few hours ago. quite persistent across scotland, clearing in northern ireland and eventually through the afternoon richard clear most of scotland. then we have the showers that follow on behind. some hailand showers that follow on behind. some hail and thunder in those. then it brightens and we continue to see some rather large downpours. temperatures should be a little lower than recent nights with fours and fives but no frost worries for most. relatively mild for this time of year. on friday, although we see low pressure with strong and gusty winds across northern scotland, nothing exceptional for the autumn. it is just wet and windy. further south it will be a combination of sunny spells and scattered showers.
12:56 pm
some heavy showers over the hills and around the coast where you have that energy from the c. later in the day we will see more cloud building. it won't be quite as mild as it has been but with temperatures between eight and been but with temperatures between eightand 12, been but with temperatures between eight and 12, a little above where they should be. the weekend. almost upon us. but we are again looking at a developing low—pressure system for saturday so it is looking really quite wet, especially for england and wales. we might escape with brighter, drier slightly less mild conditions across scotland and northern ireland but even the rain should clear away. and on sunday another spell of rain coming in behind me. again it clears out of the way but scotland and northern ireland may see more of it, with some hill snow as well. still warnings in force and you can see them on the website. that is all from me for now. goodbye. calls for a national campaign
12:57 pm
to raise awareness of psychological abuse after a man murdered his wife and teenage daughter. nineteen—year—old charlotte hart and her mother claire were shot by lance hart after years of intense controlling behaviour by him. today family members spoke out. from the outside in, it looked like we we re a from the outside in, it looked like we were a close—knit family, always together, we had a nice house, and we put on a face as well, we did not wa nt we put on a face as well, we did not want anyone to know, almost, but on the inside, terrified, frightened of every single day. it comes as a review says the case should be at the centre of greater awareness of the crime of coercive control. also this lunchtime: confusion over a brexit tv debate between two party leaders: theresa may accepts the bbc‘s proposal, butjeremy corbyn prefers itv‘s. shrewsbury and telford nhs trust, under investigation for its maternity services, is now rated "inadequate" by inspectors.
