of a ‘no deal‘ brexit at the end of october. theresa may's government had considered extending freedom of movement to 2021 or allowing eu citizens to stay in the uk for three months before having to apply for a longer stay. however, today the home office has said plans for a new immigration system are being developed. it said boris johnson and the home secretary, priti patel, would pursue a tougher approach to ‘freedom of movement‘ than their predecessors. but the prime minister told bbc radio cornwall the uk will not suddenly become hostile to immigrants. he said an australian style—points based immigration system would be adopted. it doesn‘t mean that we are going to become remotely hostile to immigration or to immigrants. i‘m not at all. i used to run the most diverse city in the world and i was very proud of it. what it does mean is that immigration into the uk will be democratically controlled

and we will be producing an australian—style, points—based system to do it. our home affairs correspondent, danny shaw says the government will also introduce new criminality rules for people entering the uk. the key thing is that there will be some immediate changes if britain leaves the eu without a deal on the 315t of october. previously it was thought things would remain pretty much the same for a period of time, probably until the beginning of 2021. but clearly the government wants to send a signal to everyone that this is going to be different and particularly, they want to make it quite clear there will be new rules regarding people who want to come to the uk who are eu nationals who have criminal convictions, who have a criminal record. they want to apply the same rules to those people as they do at the moment to people from outside europe.

our home affairs correspondent danny shaw. meanwhilejeremy corbyn has vowed to do everything possible to stop a no—deal brexit and urged other politicians to back him. in a speech today in northamptonshire, the labour leader said a general election would provide a "once—in—a—generation" chance for a change of direction in british politics. our political correspondent jonathan blake reports. how bad will no deal be? are there going to be food shortages? no, not at all. it‘s entirely manageable. another morning, another meeting. ministers discuss daily the uk‘s readiness to leave the eu without a deal. there are new questions now, about what that could mean, after secret documents warning of serious consequences were made public. the prime minister is adamant that the uk will leave by the current deadline and, despite the warnings just weeks ago, insists the government will be ready. we‘re very confident that, by october the 31st, we will be ready and that is the crucial thing. and i think that is what people want.

you know, people are very confident themselves that they can do it. i am not pretending that there won‘t be bumps on the road. there will be. i said that on the steps of downing street. but if everybody puts their minds to it, i have absolutely no doubt that we can get ready. documents leaked to the sunday times warned of posssible shortages of food, fuel and medicine. potential travel disruption and protests. for those relaxed about no deal, it is more of what they call project fear. the forces that do not wish us to leave the european union will make hay out of this and they want to get no deal off the table because that means no renegotiation. that leaves us a choice between theresa may's absolutely failed three times in parliament withdrawal agreement or not leaving at all. and what they actually want is not leave at all. the labour leader again pushed his plan to avoid a no—deal brexit, urging mps to bring down the government, and back him to take charge temporarily. if mps are serious about stopping a no deal crash out,

a no—deal crash out, then they will vote down this reckless government. and it falls to the leader of the opposition to make sure no deal does not happen and the people decide their own future. that is our responsibility and we gladly accept that responsibility and will carry it out in parliament. but when mps return from their summer break, it‘s far from certain that enough will fall into line behind labour. more than 100 are calling for parliament to be recalled and sit permanently until brexit is resolved. we are talking about food, fuel and medicine shortages. that's the sort of thing that we talk about in wartime. this is somthing is potentially going to happen in peacetime as a result of a conscious decision by our prime minister to do or die, for which he does not want to be held accountable, he is not willing to come to parliament to defend himself. from travel to trade. sooner or later the government

will need to be clear about the consequences of leaving the eu without a deal, as time to reach a new deal runs short. jonathan blake, bbc news. our political correspondent, nick eardleyjoins me now. let‘s talk about the publication of this yellowhammer document over the weekend. he will debate about how old it is? yes, a big question about just how recently the government was developing this document which suggest things like shortages of food, medicine, fuel. that they plan for the irish border is unworkable in the long term. michael gove, the cabinet office minister, the man in charge of preparing the government for no deal said yesterday that this was an old document, but some signs today that that might not quite stack up. downing street sources admitting that this was something that was shown to the preparation

committee, the whitehall committee, that looks at brexit preparation earlier this month. we have also been told that devolved government in scotland and wales, who get sight of all the drafts of operation are yellowhammer documents, so this latest draft, the stuff that was in the sunday times yesterday, they first saw that at the start of this month. so only really two or 2.5 weeks ago. there are some who are saying that this is a fairly new, fairly up—to—date. the government argument, more broadly, is that things have changed since boris johnson took over in the plan to get ready for no deal have been turbo—charged. and that the country is much more prepared. but in terms of how recently that the government oi’ of how recently that the government or civil servants were developing these warnings, it seems like it was only a matter of 2.5 weeks ago. also only a matter of 2.5 weeks ago. also on freedom of movement, took from the government, not much detail, that indicates quite a significant change of tone on this from theresa

may‘s government. change of tone on this from theresa may's government. and a change in policy. under theresa may, the government was looking at two different outcomes— like one would have freedom of movement extended for a couple of years after the uk left the european union and the other would have seen people possibly staying here for up to three months under freedom possibly staying here for up to three months underfreedom of movement rules. the home office has decided neither of those plans work and that something else has to be drawn up. this also fits into no deal because the government is saying that it freely without a deal, if we leave on the 31st of october, freedom of movement as we know it will end. what will replace it, we‘re sure, priti patel and the home office are working on top. this is not necessarily something to panic about right away, because people who are here already have until the end of 2020 to apply for a

set something that was set up by theresa may‘s government. but you‘re right, that —— the fact that priti patel has just been the two ideas that theresa may‘s government was looking at has shown quite a radical departure. quite what the change will look like, we are not sure. paul scully is the deputy chair of the conservative party and joins me now. thank you for being with us. let's talk about at the yellowhammer document, first of all. people are saying that it‘s suggest shortages of the kind that you would expect in wartime rather than peacetime. this is something that has been out of date. the government of gibraltar have said that things have moved on from their section. you will see this from other people, but nonetheless it is the worst case scenario and things have changed sedately in terms of the speed of no deal preparation and that will

continue at a pace. what we have got to remember is that the prime minister and the government are trying to secure a deal. how likely is ideal? we've got to get it eager to start speaking to us. -- how likely is a deal. if we do not get a deal it will be because of two things, the eu do not want to —— in the eu will not talk to as... the cbi have been saying that a living without a deal will be very significant for the economy, for jobs. a deal is the number one priority. do you accept that? getting talk started so that we can aim fora deal getting talk started so that we can aim for a deal is the number one priority, but we have still got to prepare for no deal clearly. the cbi, themselves, have said that where any place for the eu —— than the eu in the deal preparation. you have heard from the pen and so that

it is going to be bumpy. we have to make sure that we can mitigate as many circumstances as they can —— from the prime minister. during the campaign he also said that no deal was one in —— was one in a million chance. well, that is up to the eu now. it is also in terms of the british government —— up to the british government —— up to the british government —— up to the british government as well, surely. what we do need to do is respect the referendum and make sure that we are leaving... what you think are the chances of a no deal? as it still one enabling cosmic i am not in the middle of negotiations.” one enabling cosmic i am not in the middle of negotiations. i cannot sense what you‘re coming back with at the moment. i do know that the chances of us living on top of the sist chances of us living on top of the 31st are ioo%. so that is what i‘m aiming for. i would rather live with aiming for. i would rather live with a deal. today we have also had the government talking about ending freedom of movement if there is a no—deal brexit. people representing

the 3 million eu citizens in this country say that that his reckless politics by the government and by the prime minister and that it will sow the prime minister and that it will sow division amongst the dutchman and his commission potentially, about those people who are living within the eu are ultimately treated. what is keep eu citizens living in the uk is for them to understand that this does not affect them. the settled satyrs programme will continue and they still had a good four years to apply for settled satyrs —— settled status. really, people come here to havejobs, families and our friends, people come here to havejobs, families and ourfriends, our neighbours. and they should continue to do so. but in order to leave the eu, things need to change, in terms of freedom of movement at all the pillars of the eu, all that will change whatever happens on october the 31st. we will see the details as they come. in fact, they have until

they come. in fact, they have until the end of next year. only a million oi’ the end of next year. only a million or $0 the end of next year. only a million or so have signed up to the settled scheme. for the 2.5 million who have not, what happens to them? for those who have them told me how easy it has to do so. i would urge everyone has to do so. i would urge everyone has in possession to start to use the process now. we have hyper people today how it is not easy, it is very difficult invite. —— heard from people today. that is interesting because that is not what i have heard back, including from some employers in my office. there will be a lot more information, members of parliament, for those people who are uncertain, but they must realise that i can i hope that those try to unpick the referendum do not try to use the stick create division. those people who are here already, are under every single rate, and must be made... continue to be made welcome. he did not

a nswer to be made welcome. he did not answer my question, for those who do not sign up at to the set of the status scheme by the end of next year and status scheme by the end of next yearand 2.5 status scheme by the end of next year and 2.5 million odd have not, what happens to them under these new proposals? this is where the information programme that we are building into the next few months is really key to reach out to all of the sort of people. the last thing we wa nt the sort of people. the last thing we want to do is to create a situation where they do not feel welcome. so, if they do not sign up, what happens to them? as i say, we‘re going to continue to work with every single one of those people to make sure that they can go through what is a relatively straightforward process. why has there been such a step change on what theresa may‘s government was saying about freedom of movementi think one of the things that we need to do is respect the referendum and what we have actually got to make sure no. is that there isa got to make sure no. is that there is a sense of energy, purpose and sense of direction towards leaving the eu. but is, what was happening

over the last few months was theresa may, who have very much respect, was trying to face to many people... are you saying that she did not respect the result of the referendum? she was trying to square a circle that could not be squared. people just kept voting down the deal and now we have got to focus and referendum and leave by october the 31st. that means leaving all aspects of the eu. i using that she did not respect the result of the referendum cosmic she would say that she did and she tried to get deal to leave the river —— to leave the eu through parliament several times. i think she did, leave the eu through parliament severaltimes. i think she did, but she was let down. we do have a chance to make sure that we have the chance... thank you for being with us. the headlines on bbc news...

rules allowing eu nationals to live and work in the uk will end immediately, says the prime minister, if there‘s a no—deal brexit in october. jeremy corbyn says he‘ll do "everything necessary" to prevent what he calls a "disastrous" no—deal brexit. new images emerge of prince andrew atjeffrey epstein‘s mansion after the financier‘s conviction as a sex offender — the prince says he‘s appalled by claims that epstein sexually abused young girls. and in sport... bolton wanderers call of their match for tomorrow night over welfare concerns for the young squad. there is one game in the premier league tonight, manchester united go to wolves... the brain injury charity headway says that cricket might have to review its concussion protocols. steve smith was allowed to bat in the second test after being hit by a bouncer, and then diagnosed with the condition 2a hours later

i will be back with more analysis stories around half past. prince andrew says he‘s appalled by the sexual abuse allegations against his former friend jeffery epstein. it comes after footage emerged, which shows the duke of york in the financier‘s mansion nine years ago, after the billionaire had served a prison sentence for sex offences. mr epstein killed himself last week amid fresh allegations he had sexually abused and trafficked young girls. buckingham palace says any suggestion the duke of york would "condone, participate in or encourage any such behaviour" was abhorrent. our royal correspondent jonny dymond reports. caught on camera inside a convicted paedophile‘s home — and prince andrew is in the spotlight again. the video shows prince andrew‘s billionaire friend jeffrey epstein leaving his town house in manhattan. young women come and go.

and inside, the queen‘s second son. epstein was recently arrested and charged with sex trafficking. he hanged himself nine days ago. prince andrew‘s relationship with epstein came to light with this photograph of the prince with a 17—year—old girl, who was part of epstein‘s circle. her allegation that the prince had sex with her was dismissed by a us court. seven years later, epstein was convicted of sex with a minor and jailed. but prince andrew kept in contact and was seen walking with epstein in manhattan on his release. the queen‘s second son gave up his role as uk trade representative a year after that photo came out. in the past few weeks, fresh allegations have been met with more denials, but pictures of andrew in the house of a sex offender brought

a statement from the palace. but the statement does not address what prince andrew was doing inside the home of a convicted paedophile. let‘s get the thoughts now of michael cole, former bbc royal correspondent, now writing for the daily mail. hejoins me now. thank you for being with us. how damaging do you think all of this is for the royal family. damaging do you think all of this is for the royalfamily. it is damaging do you think all of this is for the royal family. it is a very serious matter. that could not be

exaggerated. it is likely to get worse,. there are going to be several civil suits against the estate of the late jeffrey several civil suits against the estate of the latejeffrey epstein in america and there is no way that prince andrew is not a prime material witness to those cases and this is not a matter that can be controlled in this country through buckingham palace, through the metropolitan police, through her majesty‘s courts and the qc mick and her majesty‘s justices. this will be hammered out in the american court system. and in america, as you well know, they say, however how you may be, the law is above you. and we are going to face up to the prospect of prince andrew being subpoenaed as a witness in a case which, well, is

beyond words, quite frankly. and i think, there is worse to come. you see in your article today for the daily mail, you have always liked prince andrew, you have interviewed him in song, but he also said that it isa him in song, but he also said that it is a binding to be bonnie prince, but the man appears to have no judgment. —— it is fine to be born a prince. i tell you what the finer birthright is, it is common sense. anybody and any normal decent human being could see the dangers before them. it is rightly said that you can now imagine by his friends and it is right they said, perhaps unkindly, but if you lay down with dogs, you get up with fleas. i do... i liked and admired prince andrew andi i liked and admired prince andrew and i think he did a wonderfuljob

asa and i think he did a wonderfuljob as a helicopter pilot taking his life in his hands in the falklands war. i covered his wedding and the first tours he had with his wife to canada and elsewhere and he always struck me, of the queen‘s for children, as the most pleasant and down—to—earth. i was very sad to see how his marriage ended after ten yea rs how his marriage ended after ten years and that he did not stay in the royal navy because it would have kept him away from people like geoffrey eckstein. you talk about the potential damage —— geoffrey eckstein. he that talk about the potential damage but we saw the queen pictured with her son. the truth will out. thank you to people like you and jonny

dymond for his report, it will. i would urge prince andrew to speak with his british lawyers, not necessarily the ones that the royal family usually uses, experience criminal lawyers that have a knowledge of us law, and look carefully at his situation because there will be no hiding from this and there are things you can do and there‘s nothing that prevents him, asa there‘s nothing that prevents him, as a member of the royal family, giving evidence civil case. in the 19th century, the queen‘s elder son, the prince of wales, gave evidence in two notorious, scandalous cases and there have been other instances where members of the royalfamily have been called to give evidence so i think they should take urgent steps, but i think i would advise prince andrew, because it is always the cover—up that gets you, not the actual affairs, to look into his soul and to work out what he should do, consult his doctors and then decide on the fullest and frankest

admission because the truth will set him free and nothing else will do, frankly. good to talk to you as ever. many thanks. more now on the goverment‘s preparation for a no—deal brexit, and details of a confidential government report were published in the sunday times newspaper yesterday, outlining the potential difficulties caused by a no—deal brexit, which included major impacts on fuel, food and medicine supplies. cabinet minister michael gove, who is responsible for no—deal preparation, said the report outlined a "worst—case scenario" and that the government had stepped up no—deal planning over the past month. with me now is richard ballantyne, chief executive of the british ports association. thank you for being with us. give us a picture of what you think life after a no—deal brexit would look like. well, ports are prepared as much as they can be. but i have to

say, a no deal could be particularly disruptive, particularly for ports like dover and the role of and roll—on ports which facilitate thousands of lorry movements between the uk and eu every day. give us a bit of detail or not, flesh on the bones of that. what sort of delays, how many tracks would be denied? along with all this go on for? -- tracks. if you look at the papers that were leaked, it says that we are looking at customs controls, border checks on all these lorries and freight, which could potentially go on for several months. while operators get used to the new arrangements and adjust their systems. so that could mean stoppages at ports, of these vehicles. that is what the main challenges and queues of lorries coming out of ports is a possibility in some locations. other ports will be able to manage it, but the parts

i mentioned, dover, holyhead, portsmouth, ning etc will be the ones with the biggest challenges. —— immingham. we hear about potential shortages of food, fuel, medicine and the sort of thing, what you see is happening there? we do not have really a ny is happening there? we do not have really any idea of what the type of things work will be delayed. it is whatever we trade with europe, so it could be anything really. —— what type of things will be delayed. the government has brazilians and it is bank capacity on ferries for category one clubs, that includes medicines. —— the government has brazilians and it the government and it will be looking for further investment. and from what she had seen, are no—deal brexit preparation is being stepped up. as the

government, are the authorities generally getting their act together in case there is a no—deal brexit on october the 31st? very much. we have seen the announcement just october the 31st? very much. we have seen the announcementjust two weeks ago from the treasury, which was £2 billion, of which around £300 million or so will be spent on borders and infrastructure to support the facilitation of trade. we‘ve also had a big round table meeting of several cabinet ministers down in dover the week before last. by down in dover the week before last. by the industry was there speaking to people like michael gove, priti patel and also grant shapps, the transport secretary. that is definitely movement going on there, but i have to reiterate, a no deal could be quite problematic for, not just the parts, but the wider logistics industry. very briefly, to getting a no—deal brexit is what we are heading for? where not a political organisation, but it does look more possible now. it is only prudent to start preparing for this kind of things. thank you very much indeed.

now some of the other main stories on bbc news this hour. police have been given more time to question ten people arrested on suspicion of murdering an officer, who was killed while investigating a report of a burglary in berkshire. this morning colleagues of pc andrew harper visited the scene where the 28—year—old died after being dragged along a road by a vehicle on thursday night. police in kent say there‘s a possibility that a six—year—old boy who fell into a river may have managed to get out of the water and become lost in a field. lucas dobson has been missing since saturday afternoon when he slipped into the river stour near sandwich during a family fishing trip. emergency services and local volunteers continue to search for lucas. a 17—year—old boy has appeared in court charged with murdering peter duncan, who was stabbed to death with a screwdriver. mr duncan, who was a solicitor, was attacked five days ago in newcastle city centre. time for a look at the weather

with susan powell. afternoon, there have been some noisy showers clattering across parts of england and wales today. a pretty big thunderstorms are pushing their way across eastern reaches of england. the biggest difference tomorrow, a much drier and quieter day. lighter it will feel warmer and there will be a more in the way up there will be a more in the way up the sunshine and fewer showers. this evening, still the downpour to come across eastern riches. we have got a weather front thinking is across scotla nd weather front thinking is across scotland into northern ireland —— across eastern reaches. to the north of that, quite chilly where you see the green shading behind me. i cross more rural parts of scotland, those of four or more rural parts of scotland, those offouror5 more rural parts of scotland, those of four or 5 degrees and even down into single figures further south. it has that air of autumn about it for fasting on tuesday. it has that air of autumn about it forfasting on tuesday. a it has that air of autumn about it for fasting on tuesday. a day that will offer up a lot of sunshine awaits you. a bit more cloud across northern england, bringing a few showers at times, a future southern

scotla nd showers at times, a future southern scotland and come the afternoon, a wea k scotland and come the afternoon, a weak warm front will bring more cloud into wales and northern ireland and possibly the sharper shower. cool of aberdeen, i6 ireland and possibly the sharper shower. cool of aberdeen, 16 is a high but up to 21 in the south—east. —— coolerfor aberdeen. this is bbc news. i‘m ben brown. the headlines: rules allowing eu nationals to live and work in the uk will end immediately, says the prime minister, if there‘s a no—deal brexit in october. meanwhilejeremy corbyn says he‘ll do "everything necessary" to prevent what he calls a "disastrous" no—deal

bolton have cancelled their next match. katie gornall is in the studio. how did this unfold, we know about the difficulties bolton have had off the field, is this a surprising move in what has been a troubled move for the club? not necessarily because it has been a difficult time for the club, administration since may and the 12 point deduction and delays over a potential sale which means they haven‘t been able to sign players. they only had three senior players fit for the last game against tranmere and a 5—0 defeat. they have had to field largely youth players and that issue of player welfare is something the manager phil parkinson has spoken about. he is concerned about the impact that playing tuesday, friday and the quick turnaround can have on players physically and mentally. the club

have said they have had to suspend the fixture against doncaster on tuesday. they said after consultation, another match without another could break would be detrimental to both their welfare and development. this is the second time the club had been forced to postpone a fixture this year. at the end of last season they didn‘t play their match with brentford because ofa their match with brentford because of a player strike over unpaid wages. they are facing sanctions on two counts for failing to fulfil the fixture. if you think that is bad you have to spare a thought for bury in leaguei you have to spare a thought for bury in league 1 who are yet to start their season, they haven‘t been allowed to buy the afl, they have had several game suspended over financial concerns and they have not been able to prove to the efl they are financially viable going forward. so troubled times in league 1 forward. so troubled times in league iat forward. so troubled times in league 1 at the moment. there‘s one match in the premier league tonight, wolves take on manchester united at home. they caused united some

problems last season. they got a draw agianst jose mourinho‘s united at old trafford, and after ole gunnar solskjaer took over they won in the league at molineux and also kocked them out of the fa cup there. cricket australia have defended the doctor who allowed batsman steve smith to return to finish his innings in the 2nd ashes test, with brain injury charity headway urging the sport to change its return to play protocols cricket australia say they will monitor smith day by day , they will monitor smith day by day, and if free from symptoms for 2h hours then he can train and probably play in the third test that starts on thursday, but is that too soon, charity headway believes so. currently there is not a set period of time mandated where they have to sit it out. football, rugby and hockey and all of these other sports have these periods, and it is often up to three weeks, it is mandated, once you get diagnosed, you cannot

play until that set point in time. cricket does not have that set to and i think that is wrong and it needs to be looked at very quickly and carefully. england‘s women could have qualified for eurohockey semi—finals with a game to spare but drew 1—1 with germany. the tournament pits the eight best sides across the continent against each other, with the winner qualifying for the olympics. lily owsley gave england the advantage thanks to her strike. germnay equalised just before the end of the third quarter. england will still be favourites to make the last four with their final pool match on wednesday against belarus who lost 11—0 against ireland today. we‘ll have more for you in sportsday at 6:30. throughout this week across bbc news we‘re looking at the issues

facing farmers in the uk — and today we focus on climate change. farming leaders say it is one of the biggest challenges for the agricultural industry. the national farmers union is calling for more money for flood prevention, and says that consumers have their part to play. claire marshall reports from the somerset levels. as the climate warms, it is becoming more unstable. extreme weather is becoming more common. from the beast from the east, to scorching heat waves, to flash floods. this was lincolnshire earlier this year. the nfu says we have to be far more ambitious in how we deal with the changing climate. climate change is probably the single biggest issue that farming is facing at the moment. we are seeing extremes of weather events and, for me, probably the single, biggest challenge is around water. we are seeing more floods, we are seeing more droughts. how we manage those,

not just as farmers but as wider society, will be the biggest challenge going forward. this is a place that understands the challenges of climate change all too well. these are the somerset levels, they‘re flat, crisscrossed with rivers, and very vulnerable. in late 2013, almost all of what we can see here was under water. that includes james winslade‘s farm. when the rivers burst their banks, all of these fields were flooded. he got his cattle outjust in time but he and his family had to move to a safer place. his field stayed under waterfor six months. this autumn, they‘re going to do more dredging through here. a major climate reportjust out said that agriculture was a key driver of global warming butjames gets fed up when uk farmers are blamed. we can do our little bit but, the trouble is, if the rest of the world isn‘t doing anything, how is it going to change? that‘s my biggest concern. we‘re very small compared with the rest of the world really. in rotterdam, some entrepreneurs

have seen an opportunity. this is a floating farm. the milk that its 32 cows produce is sold locally. the designers say it is environmentally friendly and can help to future—proof cities. we have a climate change going on so we are looking for what we call a climate—adaptive location,, so no matter how much rain falls, no matter how high the sea level goes, we can always produce our life essential, healthy food. the nfu has committed to getting carbon zero by 2040. if that happens, it will play a part in limiting the most catastrophic effects of climate change. claire marshall, bbc news, on the somerset levels. our correspondent sally challoner is at lye cross farm, a dairy farm in somerset. iam in i am in the milking shed and it is

very quiet, they started about aam, 750 cows come through here twice a day. we are talking about climate change and talking about methane from cattle and nitrous oxide from fertiliser, so what are the farmers doing? i am fertiliser, so what are the farmers doing? iam meeting fertiliser, so what are the farmers doing? i am meeting the operations director from the farm, nick green. what is it your carbon footprint like here? it is as low as we think we can manage it at the moment. everything we do we realise it has a potential impact on the environment so we potential impact on the environment so we try to minimise our carbon footprint as much as possible. things like reducing the amount of protein in animal feed, that go some way in reducing emissions. with the cow way in reducing emissions. with the cow slurry, we separate that and produce millions of gallons a year on this particular form so we separate that, the liquid part of it has the nutrients in it so we apply that to the growing crops when they

need it. the solid part of it, the dry matter that is a condition for the soil so we use that when we are cultivating the crops. you are quite ahead on this, there must be room for improvement among farmers? there is always room for improvement and we are always looking at improving everything we do. we are not perfect, but we try and minimise any emissions or any impact we have on the environment with everything we do. we have been talking to some vegans who say to get rid of all the fertiliser and methane we should rip up fertiliser and methane we should rip up the pastures and grow crops or plant trees? that would not necessarily work, it might help to a degree. what you need to remember, the western side of the country has a damp, maritime climate ideally suited for growing grass. grass, as faras we are suited for growing grass. grass, as far as we are concerned is the start

of our production system for feeding the cows. permanent structures are a fantastic carbon sink. it is already there and already doing a job and absorbing the carbon that could otherwise be going up into the atmosphere. not very efficient, the cows a re atmosphere. not very efficient, the cows are eating it and then through the cows and is that sustainable? we need to make it sustainable. if people want a vegetarian owe a vegan life style, people want a vegetarian owe a vegan lifestyle, fine. we as farmers and an industry can cater for that. people who want to drink milk and eat meat we need to cater for that. it is about catering for everybody and doing the very best we can to reduce all the emissions that potentially could arise from agriculture. thank you very much and thank you for having us on the farm all day. the cows will be back in here at aam, but for me, back to you. sally, thank you very much

indeed. the uk has lost its measles—free status, three years after the disease was virtually eliminated. immunisation rates have been falling in the uk, with 231 cases of measles confirmed in the first quarter of this year. public health england have revealed new figures showing that one in seven five—year—olds are not fully protected against measles, with that figure rising to one in four in london. professor heidi larson is director of the the vaccine confidence project, which monitors public confidence in immunisation programmes, based at the london school of hygiene and medicine. shejoins us now from near avignon in the south of france. how worried are you about what appear to be falling levels of vaccination? i would say pretty concerned. i think that there needs to bea concerned. i think that there needs to be a very proactive measure. it‘s not just because of to be a very proactive measure. it‘s notjust because of the lower vaccination in the uk, it is also because we had extremely high cases

of measles across europe. so being such a crossroads for not only europe, but other parts of the world, where we have an exceptionally bad year globally with measles, i think we have to make an extraordinary effort in the uk to raise up the coverage of measles. the government have been talking about a lot of disinformation about vaccines being on social media. the prime minister talked about mumbo jumbo. are you worried there is a lot of disinformation, it is putting pa rents of lot of disinformation, it is putting parents of immunising their children? i think that is one part of the picture but i think there is also concerned with things that could be done that are more straightforward and that is with making sure people have appointments available when they want them to get

their children vaccinated. that there is proactive efforts to reaching out and following up four children that haven‘t been vaccinated. there is this information out there and at the touch of a key, you know a smartphone, you can see a lot of pretty discouraging information. but i think there is also a trend going on and that is young mothers, who, it is not just on and that is young mothers, who, it is notjust about on and that is young mothers, who, it is not just about anti—vaccine on and that is young mothers, who, it is notjust about anti—vaccine it is about pro—natu re. it is notjust about anti—vaccine it is about pro—nature. there is a strong, natural movement that includes a vaccine free childhood. that is a very dangerous thing to play with, particularly in this environment. the uk has lost its measles three straight us —— status, how alarms are you about that?m measles three straight us —— status, how alarms are you about that? it is very discouraging. there had been a lot of effort after the anxieties around the mmr vaccine 20 years ago

and three years ago when the who endorsed elimination, which means measles free for the uk, it was a huge accomplishment and that was not without a huge amount of effort on behalf of the uk. so it is pretty discouraging when you finally achieve something like that, to see that again slipping. the thing is to act soon, act now. this is something that measles is absolutely the most infectious of diseases, particularly for children. it is also a warning sign that this is the first disease that we will see when vaccination sta rts that we will see when vaccination starts slipping. there is other vaccine preventable diseases that will start to show as well but don‘t show up as quickly as measles. i think overall, it‘s notjust about

the measles vaccination, it is making sure all other vaccinations are up—to—date because this is the beginning of what could be revealed as more waves of other disease outbreaks. good to talk to you, thank you so much, professor heidi larson. sir eltonjohn has said he provided the duke and duchess of sussex with a flight on a private jet to his home in nice to give the royal couple a "high level of much—needed protection". writing on twitter, sir elton said ‘i am deeply distressed by today‘s distorted and malicious account in the press surrounding the duke and duchess of sussex‘s private stay at my home in nice last week‘. he went on to say that he had ensured the flight was carbon neutral. prince harry and his wife meghan markle have faced mounting criticism after reportedly taking four private jetjourneys in eleven days, despite often speaking out

on environmental issues. the headlines on bbc news: rules allowing eu nationals to live and work in the uk will end immediately, says the prime minister, if there‘s a no—deal brexit in october. jeremy corbyn says he‘ll do "everything necessary" to prevent what he calls a "disastrous" no—deal brexit. new images emerge of prince andrew atjeffrey epstein‘s mansion after the financier‘s conviction as a sex offender — the prince says he‘s appalled by claims that epstein sexually abused young girls. let‘s get more now on the news that downing street has said that rules allowing eu citizens to live and work freely in the uk will cease immediately in the event of a no—deal brexit at the end of october. borisjohnson and the home secretary, priti patel, have rejected the previous

government‘s plan to allow freedom of movement to continue until january 2021. they‘ve reiterated that nothing would change for eu nationals already here. the conservative mp alberto costa has been a long—time campaigner for the rights of eu citizen in the uk and hejoins me now from sicily. thank you very much for being with us. a change of policy it appears on these rules from the government of borisjohnson? these rules from the government of boris johnson? it appears, that is the key words, it appears. what is being proposed today is unworkable in practice. let me explain why. 2.6 million eu nationals have yet to register for the so—called settled status scheme. i pose this question to the government, if we come out on ano to the government, if we come out on a no deal basis without a new, legal

system for migrants, how will the government distinguish between those 2.6 million lawfully resident eu nationals in the uk from any new eu migrants coming into the uk? it is a holy, impractical proposal. as a lawyer, the reason i have been championing this for three years is because i want to deliver brexit, i voted for brexit three times in that house of commons. but what i want to see is a smart brexit, we come out of the eu in a smooth and orderly manner so we come out of the legal system and replace it with another. what is being proposed today sadly is nothing of the sort. it is political puff given to the media to make it appear that these two individuals are really strong about coming out of the eu. vote leave promised, in 2016, that coming out

of the eu would not impact negatively on eu nationals. indeed, they said they would automatically have their rights guaranteed. sadly, none of those rights have been entrenched in law, in other words there has not been any legislation passed by the house of commons to protect their rights. and the reason thatis protect their rights. and the reason that is so negative is it‘s notjust for the eu nationals, but it is also for the eu nationals, but it is also for the eu nationals, but it is also forthe1.3 for the eu nationals, but it is also for the 1.3 million british citizens living and working in the eu. if we come out with no deal, the british government, by its actions would be terminating the rights of their own british citizens. they would lose the right to health care access, lose the right to pension access, they might even lose residency rights. this is really serious stuff and that is why i have been campaigning for three years to protect those... given what you have

said, this is serious stuff, would you join the rebels against the government‘s no—deal brexit? you join the rebels against the government's no-deal brexit? in the commons would you vote to stop a no—deal brexit? commons would you vote to stop a no-deal brexit? there are many ways politically to deal with this, that is why i wrote to borisjohnson, i was one of those signatories last week. the reason i wrote to boris is to help him honour his pledge. he promised me, the british public through the house of commons, that he wants to guarantee the rights of eu nationals. they are ending free movement on the 31st of october on a no deal basis, there is nothing of the sort. they create legal chaos. what i want to do is help the prime minister, i want to help the home office to ensure that as we come out of the eu, there is a new immigration system already in place. let me propose a solution to this.

the solution is, when parliament returns first week of september, the government proposes a very simple immigration bill that entrenches in law of those rights eu nationals and i°y law of those rights eu nationals and joy and by so doing we can also protect the british citizens in the eu in the event of no deal. the ball is firmly in the british government‘s court. let them honour their pledge to protect the rights of citizens... you are mentioning at the beginning of 2.5 million people who have not yet applied for settled status. some people might say, why don‘t they just get status. some people might say, why don‘t theyjust get on with signing up don‘t theyjust get on with signing upfor don‘t theyjust get on with signing up for special status, they have until -- up for special status, they have until —— from now until the end of next year? the settled status scheme, there is no legislation underpinning that scheme. that scheme is just underpinning that scheme. that scheme isjust a home office rule. it can be changed at the stroke of a pen. that is not an trenching

rights. but moreover, it‘s not that it just doesn‘t entrench rights. but moreover, it‘s not that itjust doesn‘t entrench rights, the reality is, if 2.6 million people have yet to register, the reality is they cannot register between now and they cannot register between now and the end of october, the home office system couldn‘t cope with that. i pose the question once again, if we end free movement of people at the end free movement of people at the end of october on a no deal basis, how will we distinguish between lawfully resident eu nationals in the uk from those eu nationals coming into the uk post brexit? secondly, how do we guarantee the rights of1.3 secondly, how do we guarantee the rights of 1.3 million british citizens living in the eu in the event of no deal? these are big considerations. i trust boris, he has promised me, he promised me directly he does want to protect the rights of citizens, so he has got to honour that pledge. ok, thank you very much forjoining us. thank you.

police in northern ireland have said officers narrowly escaped injury in a bomb explosion in county fermanagh. the blast occurred at wattle bridge near newtownbutler, close to the irish border, during a security operation which was launched after a warning was received. officers found a hoax device last night and during a follow—up search this morning, a bomb went off. well our northern ireland correspondent emma va rdy is in county fermanagh at the scene of the explosion. the police say they suspect it is either one of the two dissident groups, the new ira all the continuity ira behind this attack. a similar one happened a few weeks back, the continuity ira claimed they were behind that one, very similar in tactics, the police were brought into a hoax device and then found a booby—trap device nearby soon after. on that occasion, the second device did catch them u nawa res second device did catch them unawa res and it second device did catch them unawares and it exploded with a

number of officers very lucky to escape injury. the police action has been particularly marked, frustration directed at the political situation in northern ireland. there has been no devolved government since the power—sharing agreement at stormont collapsed more than two years ago. but while that‘s not directly linked particularly to any attacks, police put out an appealfor there to any attacks, police put out an appeal for there to be any attacks, police put out an appealfor there to be political progress to help with the wider situation in northern ireland, to tackle the threat they face in a very frustrated response from the deputy chief constable of the psni today. we've had 2.5 years of no devolved institutions. we have unresolved issues around legacy and we saw an aspect of that play out in parading in derry, londonderry, last weekend.

we have had tensions on the ground in communities this year around bonfires. we have the uncertainty around the eu exit. we've had five attempted attacks to murder police officers this year and the finding of another mortar—type device and the castlewellan area. one of those attacks, of course, tragically killed lyra mckee. and i think when we add all that up, i do believe that there is a time of reflection and a time to question what type of society we want to live in here. his reaction there after the fifth attempt to kill police officers this year and there has been widespread condemnation from all sides of the political spectrum in northern ireland today. thank you very much, emma vardy. time for a look at the weather, here‘s susan powell. lots of showers have rattled their way across the uk today. there will be more sunshine around tomorrow and

we are talking about a drier day. for this evening, still some heavy downpours to come across eastern regions of england and then we have more persistent rain at the moment coming out of scotland that will push into northern ireland and northern england by the end of the night, courtesy of a weakening weather front. this is night, courtesy of a weakening weatherfront. this is the picture for the coming hours, their share was clear to the south, largely clear skies by the end of the night, the front goes south. with the northern and westerly edge to the wind it will be quite chilly in sheltered spots on tuesday. lows of four and sheltered spots on tuesday. lows of fourand 5 sheltered spots on tuesday. lows of four and 5 degrees. as we slide into single figures it has a feel of autumn of it on tuesday. more cloud courtesy of the remnants of the front for northern england first thing. a few showers for southern scotla nd thing. a few showers for southern scotland but elsewhere a lot of sunshine. in the afternoon we will have thicker cloud into northern ireland and wales bringing one or two showers. cool in aberdeen with a

north—westerly breeze, 16 degrees. southeast, 20 or 21. nothing too remarkable in terms of the temperatures for the time of year. on wednesday this area of low pressure comes into play and quite an autumnal looking feature on the chart. it will bring autumnal type weather for some later chart. it will bring autumnal type weatherfor some later in chart. it will bring autumnal type weather for some later in the day, rain and gusty winds for northern ireland, parts of scotland and showers for northern england and wales. but it will kick the wind round to a south—westerly. today we have had a north—westerly and even in the sunshine it has felt a little fresh. the breeze will bring warmer weather in as well, thanks to the south—west effect and you can see the one spreading north across our map as we go through thursday, friday and into saturday, which for some is the start of a long weekend. the reason being, this area of high pressure will continue to assert itself from the south, squeezing the life out of these weather fronts in the north. still rain to come at times for scotland and northern ireland, but overall and increasingly settle picture for many as the week pans out and a warming theme. up to 27 in the south—east of

england by saturday. it looks like the temperatures will taper off as we go further on through the weekend. we are not done hopefully with summer just yet. authority services? after warnings from suppliers, some councils are planning for possible food shortages, to hit schools and care homes. there will be challenges around availability, there will be challenges around many things. currency fluctuations, and impact on pricing. so, what are council plans to cope with a ‘no deal‘ brexit? also on the programme: prince andrew says he‘s appalled by the crimes of his former friend and convicted paedophile, jeffrey epstein. three years after the measles virus is virtually wiped out in britain, world health chiefs say it‘s back. police escape injury in a bomb attack in northern ireland. dissident republicans are blamed.
