with killing eve and fleabag among the night's winners. and at 11:30 we'll be taking an in—depth look at the papers with our reviewers yasmin alibhai brown and rachel cunliffe — stay with us for that. good evening. an unprecedented operation has been launched to bring back tourists stranded abroad, following the collapse of the uk's oldest travel company, thomas cook, which went into liquidation in the early hours of the morning. dozens of planes have been chartered to bring home more than 150,000 british holidaymakers. many more customers yet

to go on their holidays will also be affected. it's thought that 800,000 future bookings had been made with the company. thomas cook's collapse puts 22,000 jobs at risk worldwide — 9,000 of them in the uk. our business editor simonjack has the latest. grounded — thomas cook planes sat idle on the runway at manchester. the last thomas cook flight arrived earlier this morning, a sudden and dramatic end to 180 years in the travel business. holiday—makers were handed a stark notice on arrival that their flights weren't going anywhere. we are absolutely gutted, we looked forward to this for a long time, had the wedding injuly, so it's been another couple of months waiting for this. yeah, just totally gutted. i had a bit of a sixth sense at two o'clock this morning, got up, checked the website, and that's when it hit

the fan, basically. martin and gemma had booked their wedding on a greek island. planned down to the last detail, those plans are now in tatters. just broke my heart, just couldn't believe it, i was gutted. didn't want it to be true. it alljust seems for nothing now, just a bit confused and empty. don't really know what to do, all that planning, all gone. meanwhile, the first of a hastily assembled fleet of aircraft started bringing stranded people home. i took the decision that, look, people need to be back for work, for theirfamilies, all sorts of reasons. we can'tjust leave, you know, brits stranded abroad, we need to bring people home. 150,000 people is the biggest peacetime repatriation this country's ever known, and we'll try to do it as quickly and as smoothly as possible, but it won't all be plain sailing, i know. the cost to government, around £75 million.

the cost to 9000 uk employees, arguably greater. at the compa ny‘s peterborough headquarters, the mood was sombre. angry, devastated, teary, as you would imagine. livelihoods have just gone overnight, just like that. i've got kids at home. i've never been on benefits, never been used to benefits, so i don't know what to do, to be honest. and i'm not the only one. i'm a young one, imagine a 40—year—old, 50—year—old, who's been working here for over 30, 40 years. cabin crew member ella wayne was on board when she found out. one of the passengers just said to me, have you seen the news, when i landed at three o'clock. and it was basicallyjust saying that we've gone bust. i didn't really want to believe it at first. but it was a heart in the stomach moment. the boss emerged early this morning to make his apologies. it is deeply distressing to me that it has not been possible to save one of the most loved brands in travel. thank you. how did it all come to this? it's the oldest and perhaps

best—known travel company in the world, nearly 180 years old. from the 1800s, through the boom years, large numbers of brits started to have enough money to go abroad. thomas cook, though, has been struggling for a decade. it almost collapsed in a 2011 after mergers had left it with 1,200 high street stores, just as customers were moving online. despite cutting those stores, it announced a loss of £1.5 billion back in may, which pushed it deeper into debt. a private deal, involving the chinese company and club med owner fosun, fell apart when it emerged the company was still in need of an additional £250 million. these desks should be buzzing with 5000 people checking in on 23 flights out of manchester airport. they are silent. thomas cook, another victim of that classic company killer, debt. when you owe £1.7 billion, not much needs to go wrong to tip you over the edge. the private sector couldn't find an answer, and the government

refused to step in. it's not had the financial resilience to weather the huge changes in the market, with the low cost carriers coming along, jet2 holidays, people booking online rather than using traditional high street agents, perhaps. and more recent factors, we've had brexit, consumer confidence has been knocked, there have been weather conditions, all sorts going on, and it hasjust added up to a bit of a perfect storm for thomas cook this year. this government feels it is not taxpayers' role to prop up private business. like bus contractor carillion, the government felt it was too weak to be sure it wouldn't be asked to clear up another mess in the future. so what does this mean for holidaymakers? the government says all customers booked to return to the uk in the next fortnight will be brought back for no charge, as close as possible to their original time. people on package holidays don't need to pay again for their accommodation — they're covered by the atol protection scheme.

all future thomas cook bookings — some 800,000 — have been cancelled. the civil aviation authority says most of those who've booked package holidays will have their money refunded. but many people who have booked flights only may not be covered by the atol scheme, so they'll have to try to claim back costs through travel insurance or their credit card company, depending on circumstances. so as we heard, tens of thousands of thomas cook customers still abroad have spent the day wondering how and when they're going to get home. 0ur europe correspondent gavin lee has been speaking to holiday makers in mallorca. the end of the line for thomas cook, butjust the beginning for thousands of passengers now trying to get home from majorca. british support teams have been specially flown in from the civil aviation authority and the foreign office, to offer reassurance, but can't offer an easy solution on how to get back to the uk.

we're going to birmingham, which is a bit of a kick, but we are going to get home, so it's not the end of the world. where's home? glasgow. glasgow, so a seven—hour drive up the m6 probably. there is another concern — not just for the thousands of thomas cook travellers here due to fly back in the next two weeks, but also for those reliant on the money from thomas cook's once reliable income. well, this is the main thomas cook run hotel in palma, and we're being told by staff that everything's 0k, but the management won't speak to us, and if you look, they've got security here for the first time. they're quite nervous. this is one of a number of hotels that we understand are waiting still to be paid in arrears from thomas cook, and meantime, they're still having to look after the customers too. we just feel, like, at any moment we're, like, vulnerable and we could just be asked to leave. this place was a sign of thomas cook's ambition for the future here — a financial headquarters with 700 staff opened a year ago. today they came in, but there was no work to do.

we don't know nothing of our work. we just know that tomorrow we have to come, and now the atmosphere is a little bit strange, everybody is thinking what is going to happen with the future. and everybody is searching newjobs! back at palma airport, there are still many passengers waiting to catch flights tonight. sue coker is trying to return to bradford with her son. they've been up since 5am this morning and now herflight‘s been delayed until midnight. we knew it'd be chaotic here today. and as flight keeps getting changed, from 7.40, 9.15 midnight. i can't do it, i want to go home! will i've got my 13—year—old boy with me, and he's hungry, and he won't eat the food here. and they're not helping, they don't tell you anything. majorca was once the company's most popular destination. tonight, any sentiment for the loss of britain's oldest travel firm is being put to one side.

the priority is on getting home. gavin lee, bbc news, majorca. our business editor, simon jack, has been at manchester airport tonight, and has been telling us about the wider implications of the collapse of thomas cook. a lot of people came by here, they just got on a replacement flight, they talked about a horrendous nine—hour weight to the airport, we will see more about in the days and weeks to come. this corporate demise will trigger a very big post—mortem, lots of fingers pointing the blame, the current management by taking big bonuses while the company finances dwindled, from the previous management for burdening them with too much debt, for the banks, the last—minute request for extra funding and the government refusing to step in, and it will reignite some of those red—hot issues about

how businesses are run, in whose interest they are run, don't forget as we were hearing there from spain, that thomas cook is an enormous player in this industry. it buys hundreds of millions of pounds worth of flights and hotel rooms, so the reverberations on the recriminations of this corporate demise will carry on for many weeks and months to come. after a lively debate at the labour conference in brighton, jeremy corbyn won the support of members to stay neutral on brexit, while a future labour government tried to negotiate a new deal. there would then be a referendum within six months, giving people the choice between the new deal, or remaining in the eu. the conference today voted against a motion, which would have committed labour to back remain right now, as our political editor laura kuenssberg explains. can i see all those in favour of composite 13? composite number 13 — lucky for the labour leader. thank you. and all those against. cheering and applause.

this is how his supporters showed their strength this afternoon. arms in the air to defeat a move by pro—european party members to campaign now to stay in the european union. what had actuallyjust happened? sorry, i thought it was one way and jenny said something else, so... it is lost, yeah. that was lost. cheering and applause. the vote was close, judged only by a show of hands. some delegates were furious, demanding a precise tally that could have been taken. point of order, chair! no, i'm not going back to that, we've had the discussion. that was...lost. # 0h, jeremy corbyn # 0h, jeremy corbyn... but the chants of "jeremy corbyn" ringing out tell you which side won the day.

a sigh of relief this session, at least, is over. a result for the leader's most prominent backer. the plan — stay neutral until after the election and then offer a vote on leave or remain. of course, emotions will run high, but once the night settles and the morn arrives, i believe people will recognise that there was no stitch—up. here's a proper union for you! but the unions, just like the party, split. those who want labour to campaign to stop brexit now won't go away. so you won't to give up, might you try again somehow? well, i didn't give up two and a half years ago when a referendum wasn't remotely on the radar. why would i give up now when i've got most of what i want? this party's heart is remain. labour is a remain party — remain, revolt, reform. i know young people will hold

their vote against us unless we'll tell them we'll campaign to remain. i want to seejeremy corbyn in number ten and campaigning to remain is the way to do it, and the only way to do it — solidarity! this but this afternoon, before too long, this debate wasn't about brexit but a clamour for control. we stand behind jeremy corbyn, 0k, we need to support him, we need to trust him and his team. we cannot tell brexit voters that they are stupid and that they are racist. back your leader — supportjeremy. and this fight‘s still on — prominent frontbenchers won't just sit back. there is a simple belief a simple position to remain would be more convincing. i mean, i've got a pretty clear idea, i think, of where the members are on this. and therefore i think it's very likely that the members will want us to campaign for remain. jeremy corbyn fought off attempts to force him to budge on brexit by turning this into a loyalty test.

his supporters won out. but while today's debate is over, the argument is not. not even close. where are we going now? up these stairs. yep, ok, let's go. in this moment, this conference had to choose between pushing to stay in the eu and their party leader. jeremy corbyn was their choice. thank you very much. laura kuenssberg, bbc news, brighton. as well as brexit, the labour party conference proposed a 32 hour working week, and our economics at faisal islam, has been telling us how radical those proposals would be. as part of a suite of measures designed for labour to say they can and working poverty in the first term of a labour government, and the first act of the 32 our wheat policy, it

hasn't been well welcomed by the business community, businesses point to an example of a 35 hour week in france, saying employment went down and wages wouldn't go up. there are also fears about what is good due to social care and the nhs. but for workers, it sounds like a good deal, doesn't it? less hours for the same pgy- doesn't it? less hours for the same pay. and in truth, when you look at how radical it sounds, we looked at under the hood of this policy, it isn't quite that. because actually, this 32 hour working week would not be enforced on individual businesses, instead they hope to go from where we are now, an average of 37, down to 32. and if they don't, a commission would say the whole economy would get extra entitlements to holiday pay, so not quite the

enforced 32 hour week that we got — it sounds like, not quite the policy it sounds like, not quite the policy it does make that didn't work in france. but current efforts have not reduced the working week. a ruling on the legality of boris johnson's decision to suspend parliament for five weeks will be announced by the supreme court at 10:30 tomorrow morning. 11 justices have heard arguments on behalf of the prime minister that prorogation is not a matter for the courts. the court has also heard submissions that the pm is trying to limit mps' scrutiny of his brexit policy. parliament is currently due to return on 1a 0ctober, with the uk scheduled to leave the eu on 310ctober. the headlines on bbc news:

the biggest repatriation in peace—time is underway after travel giant thomas cook collapsed, leaving hundreds of thousands stranded, and trips ruined. after a brexit showdown at the labour party conference, jeremy corbyn‘s policy on staying neutral triumphs over those who wanted to back remain. teenage climate campaigner greta thunberg delivers an angry address at the un climate summit in new york. greta thunberg, the 16—year—old climate change activist, has launched a scathing attack on world leaders, accusing them of betraying her generation through their inaction on global warming. speaking at the un climate summit, she said young people would never forgive leaders if they failed to do more to protect the environment. some heads of state have stayed away from the summit. from new york, our north america

correspondent nick bryant reports. a sweltering september scorcher in new york city — not much sign of autumn here. and it hasn'tjust been a long summer, but north of the equator, the hottest ever on record. so, today at the riverside headquarters of the united nations, an urgent climate action summit. this global body, once more, sounding the alarm. the world is losing the race against climate change. applause in this air—conditioned auditorium, the heat came from the 16—year—old swedish activist greta thunberg. the un hoping to harness what's being called the greta effect — her ability to mobilise the young and to shame the old. and my, how she did that today. this is all wrong. i shouldn't be up here. i should be back in school on the other side of the ocean. yet you all come to us young people for hope. how dare you?!

you have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words. you are failing us. but the young people are starting to understand your betrayal. the eyes of all future generations are upon you, and if you choose to fail us, i say we will never forgive you. for the grown—ups in the room it was awkward. applause and cheers was their applause a form of apology? mr president? the world's most powerful adult only briefly stopped by. greta thunberg watched from the side, scowling, as he arrived. he didn't address the summit himself. he's withdrawing america from the paris climate change accord. and soon he took the chair at a rival event organised by the white house on religious persecution. other international leaders have come here with new pledges to curb emissions. 0nly nations with aggressive plans were allowed to speak. but even those commitments won't be

enough to keep temperatures from rising to dangerous levels. but every world leader today was completely upstaged by a teenager with a furious speech that will echo down the generations. nick bryant, bbc news, new york. the climate change summit comes as the world meteorological 0rganisation is warning that the signs and effects of global warming are intensifying. climate scientists are calling for carbon—cutting efforts to be boosted immediately. 0ur science editor david shukman explains the scale of the challenge. the ice at the roof of the world is stirring. the more it melts, the more it raises the level of the sea — threatening millions of people on coastlines. in the tropics, fires are destroying the great forests. and as they burn, they give off carbon dioxide, which accelerates

the speed of warming. and all this, as industries and power stations burn fossilfuels and raise levels of carbon dioxide even more. despite all the warnings about climate change, the world keeps adding to the problem, releasing more and more of the gases heating up the planet. the latest figures from the un show a total of 53 billion tons of emissions. and at this rate, they could reach 59 billion by 2030. that's a path that could warm the world by up to four degrees celsius, a dangerous level, by the end of the century. to avoid that, scientists reckon we should cut emissions by about half, down to 2a billion tons, to have any chance of limiting the rise to 1.5 degrees, which is seen as a safe limit. and that'll mean by 2050 reducing emissions, effectively, to zero. so, what's happening about all this? well, the uk and several other countries have pledged to reach zero over the next 30 years.

developing countries like india say their economy still needs to grow, so their emissions will rise. china's are still going up, but maybe not for much longer. and america, well, its emissions are falling, despite the views of president trump. for climate scientists likejoanna haigh, the world is warming at frightening speed. if we do nothing about it, and if we let it carry on as is, and co2 emissions carry on going up, and up, and up, it really is very scary. if we act now on greenhouse gas emissions and make sure that they slope down, so we get back to zero emissions by the end of the century, then really it's a much better position. the un wants a massive push for renewable energy, like these rolling hills of solar panels in china. another plan is to save the forests, because without them temperatures will keep rising. david shukman, bbc news. borisjohnson has denied any

impropriety following claims that he failed to declare a potential conflict of interest during his time as mayor of london. he was responding to reports that an american businesswoman, jennifer arcuri, who knew mrjohnson, was given access to overseas trade trips and received thousands of pounds in sponsorship grants. all i can say is i'm very proud of what we did when i was mayor of london, very proud of everything that we did, particularly banging the drum for our city and country around the world. and i can tell you, absolutely, that everything was done entirely in the proper way. borisjohnson has been meeting european leaders in new york, where he's been for a the un summit on climate change. 0ur deputy political editor john pienaar has been giving us more details. well, borisjohnson has been spending hours in talks with

european leaders, a french leader, the german leader, european council president, the tone from what i've heard is very cordial, but no sign ofa heard is very cordial, but no sign of a breakthrough. and in truth, no breakthrough was expected. tomorrow he will be meeting president trump and we can expect an outpouring of alstom is of the prospector or future failure between britain and the united states. does make outpouring of optimism. but now we have this supreme court ruling tomorrow morning which will determine whether the suspension of parliament was unlawful. if boris johnson loses that case you can expect a chorus of demands from his critics, for his resignation, and another battle in prospect hostile mps in westminster. if he wins, he can only expected because possible breathing space before the pressure is on again to get that brexit deal on, which is political hopes and the country does make future, still hangs. the duke and duchess of sussex have arrived in south africa with their four—month—old son for their first official tour as a family.

they spent the day at a township outside cape town. here's nicholas witchell. they both know this trip needs to be a success after recent missteps and negative headlines. so harry and meghan dispensed with a red—carpet welcome and came straight to a township. the exuberance of the welcome masks the fact that nyanga township has the highest murder rate in south africa. the couple had come to show their solidarity at a refuge for women and children. and amid all the hugs and the handholding was the serious message — violence against women is a huge problem here. meghan marked out her resolve to be heard. while i'm here, with my husband, as a member of the royal family, i want you to know that, for me, i am here with you as a mother, as a wife, as a woman, as a woman of colour, and as your sister. and that, of course, was very much meghan — articulate, passionate and about a subject

about which she cares very deeply. it confirms there is a certain defiance off the sussex‘s to do things their way. nicholas witchell, bbc news, cape town. it's been a good night for british stars at the us tv awards, the emmys. phoebe waller—bridge, the writer and creator of fleabag, and jodie comer, the star of killing eve, won two of the night's big prizes. here's our north america correspondent peter bowes. posing for the camera, and parading the purple carpet. hollywood royalty along with the kings and queens of game of thrones, the fantasy drama that dominated the small screen for much of the past decade. game of thrones. it was the most nominated show, and won the night's top award for best drama. but it was fleabag that stole the show, the dark comedy

up saw chilly nights, but it did warm up towards the weekend as we started to pull hot air from france and spain. this week the jet stream will be firing straight towards the british isles across the atlantic and that will be steering weather systems in our direction throughout much of this week, bringing spells of wet and windy weather. but with the wet and windy weather coming in from the south—west of the atlantic, at night, it should be a lot milder. but it is going to be an unsettled story for tuesday, a speller very heavy rain moving northwards and eastwards, leaving some embedded thunderstorms mixed in and some heavy showers stepping up later in the day in the south—west of england, too. cloudy skies, but temperatures in the mid— height in celsius. the winds will be a feature, particularly in the south—west towards the end of tuesday, tuesday evening and overnight as a feature moves in. it will bring gusts of 40—50 miles an hour, so this could lead to some

disruption.
