leak and cup completes the leak and cup double for the rhinos after they won the challenge cup in july. for the rhinos after they won the challenge cup injuly. —— for leeds rhinos. and that is often sportsday. we have more support threat the weekend. good night. —— sports throughout the weekend. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. i have political commentator and former labour party member lance price and the deputy political editor from the daily express. i will chat to you in the moment. let's take a quick look through those front pages and we are
10:41 pm
going to start off with the mirror which meets with the knife attack in manchester in which five people were hurt. the eye going with the same story purporting unarmed police confronted the attacker. the daily telegraph front page features the weekend of intensive talks between the european union and downing street. financial times also reporting on the talks saying that the eu chief negotiator michel barnier has told european diplomats that boris johnson barnier has told european diplomats that borisjohnson has shifted his position. the guardian takes the same line and as that hard—line conservative brexit tears are willing to be flexible over the daily mail. i wanted from the head of the nhs about false rumours concerning vaccinations. the times says monday pots a queen speech will include weekly binding targets to reduce pollution. and finally, the daily express has commissioned a
10:42 pm
poll suggesting the conservatives could win a small majority in a snap election. there is the front pages. with tech more in—depth look at some of those front page story. we're going to start off with the lead story today in that attack, the terrible attack that took place in manchester. front page of the mirror. sam? very shamanic pictures on the front of the mirror here. we have the police and the suspect on the four. pretty awful for people manchester to be going through this again two yea rs to be going through this again two years after the bombing. but we can ta ke years after the bombing. but we can take that from this this response was so take that from this this response was so quick. pay tribute to the heroics of the police and think we nobody was serially injured and no major injuries. that is something to at least be thankful for. major injuries. that is something to at least be thankful forlj major injuries. that is something to at least be thankful for. i think she is absolutely right that the great news from the awful circumstances of this was the way in which the first responders were
10:43 pm
there so very quickly, a matter of minutes. and obviously perfect is something that could have got very much worse and if they had not been there quite so quickly, i think it is foolish to expect great about the motives for the attack. it has been described as a terror attack. of course it was terrifying for everybody involved but i think there we re everybody involved but i think there were questions about possibly the mental health of the individual concerned. but either way, mental health of the individual concerned. but eitherway, it mental health of the individual concerned. but either way, it does show that the threat is always there. that the need for vigilance is always there, and that we have to be sure that we are prepared for these things. and of course manchester has suffered attacks in the past. they are very used to this. manchester is a very resilient city. but all across the country we have to have plans in place to have people prepared for this. the latest statement on the greater manchester police twitter feed is that the
10:44 pm
ao—year—old who was arrested on suspicion of committing a terrorist effects has not been assessed by specialist doctors and detained under the mental health act. too late to say words like that. under the mental health act that he is being attained. let's turn to brexit. in the telegraph a compromise on the part of boris johnson. there was speculation yesterday with the talks between boris thompson and our spry minister at the taoiseach about who had budged was of —— borisjohnson. i think it is the british side who has made the compromise that has led to the possibility therefore of serious talks going on over the weekend and just the possibility of a deal being reached in time for the big summit at the end of next week. clearly it was all doom and gloom a few days ago. suddenly it is looking a bit brighter. but the clock is really ticking and the chances of getting
10:45 pm
all this through getting agreed in sufficient detail before the end of the month still has to be very slim indeed. it's not only a question of getting it through, but also getting it through the apartment of the european union. the markets have reacted positively but you have to wonder about the position of the dup don't you? the dup if not shut the sandwich as a positive point in the negotiations. eileen foster said that as long as the deal provides the long—term economic interests of northern ireland, then we are still open to it for so —— arlene foster said. they could have really gone to town and shut this down and they have not. if the dup are happy with whatever comes out of this, the erg, european research group and brexit territories will follow that lead. while the dp don't shut this down, there was still hope. not necessarily as a block. there are some smattering on the fringes
10:46 pm
already from the spartans in the conservative party, the hardliners, one or two people in the dup expressing their reservations. they really ought to see the detail before they commit themselves to it. in terms of the mathematics in the house of commons, borisjohnson certainly has not got it in the bag. it is ten and peace that the dup will be adding to the poem entry arithmetic. —— ten mps. interesting to see what julian arithmetic. —— ten mps. interesting to see whatjulian smith, the northern ireland senator came out saying. he felt that there won't be a situation where one community has a situation where one community has a veto over brexit plants. —— northern ireland secretary. that was one of the things in the original plans borisjohnson one of the things in the original plans boris johnson put one of the things in the original plans borisjohnson put forward that appeared to keep the dup in light of appeared to keep the dup in light of a veto and that was clearly never going to work. there so the issue of consent because his objection to the backstop contained in theresa may pots idea was that the people of northern ireland had no say as to whether they would stay aligned with the eu or not. that each of consent
10:47 pm
must still be addressed. whether it is in some form of cross community consent express through the northern ireland assembly if it returns because it has been suspended for the last couple of years or whether it is through some form of referendum or whatever, that issue has still got to be addressed and we have not seen any detail none that will work. as we turn to the ft also with brexit, it will be very frustrating for many opposition mps. because nothing is going to be said over the next two days in these tone negotiations as they are referred to. once you go into these so-called tunnel talks, it is a very secretive process which allows both sides to get to the nitty—gritty of all of this. i think that is just how it has to be and people get their say. we have the special sitting of armament on the 19th and they will certainly be able to make their views known there. —— sitting of parliament. but we need to but them know that details of this before going to the mp5. i don't think
10:48 pm
either side really wants leaking or briefing and actually it is been quite noticeable how the briefing has eased off quite easily since these talks with leo varadkar. you both think what would stand and what it would allow the copper mice?m allows both sides to claim victory which is the classic way in which pledges are conducted in european negotiations. borisjohnson pledges are conducted in european negotiations. boris johnson and the british will say that the whole of united kingdom including northern ireland had left the european union on the same terms. but the irish will be able to say the whole of ireland, the whole of ireland and the northern ireland and republic of iron has the customs regime and a syste m iron has the customs regime and a system of whereby both of those would be true and find a way of making it work. and that seems to be... we don't have the details but it appears to be one way of if the uk were to negotiate deals which meant lower tariffs in the uk but northern ireland had to continue
10:49 pm
with those which were european union tariffs, then no business in northern ireland was suffer because they would be const —— compass it was some sort of arrangement... what hopes to have that adil will be done? i think there is a reasonable chance of deal being agreed. 0r done? i think there is a reasonable chance of deal being agreed. or the fundamentals being agreed. -- of a deal being done. will that there should be some detail and scrutiny. one down saturday is not enough of that. we have another parliament around the european union and the european parliament. obviously you on the detail it doesn't need to be as intense. we have talked about brexit endlessly for three years in parliament. every opportunity has been mulled over and discussed. and i don't know how we can go on discussing it in parliament. there must be an end point at some point. you had to anticipate the likelihood of some kind of extension even if it
10:50 pm
isa of some kind of extension even if it is a technical one in order to go through. donald tusk head of the european council says he is hopeful. your insight and lance, how would labour take it? because obviously it has to get parliament tree backing. deliver partially officially won't back it because they will not see sufficient detail in their weather on environmental concerns or workers' rights. they will have very good reasons for not backing it. they have got their own portico reasons for not backing up because the vast majority of the labour party, members and mps are against brexit in any shape or form really. they will not get labour foot, dedicate some labour votes, if they get the deal. dedicate some labour folks from those mps largely from leave constituencies who are desperate for any kind of deal. but would be enough? it could be scuppered again in parliament. let's turn to a beautiful picture on the
10:51 pm
front of the times. richard radcliffe reunited with gabriela his five—year—old who has come back to britain to attend school. such a tragic story. a beautiful picture of him and his daughter. and while nazneen has been injail, gabriel has been living with the grandparents and she could have regular visits think that has been a great comfort to nazneen —— to nasa and. the decision has been made to bring her back home. it is been if you read and he spoke to the press today with gabriela, and it is quite heartbreaking. but she isjust today with gabriela, and it is quite heartbreaking. but she is just a child and there has been made which promise because she has spent so long over in iran. there is no bit ofa long over in iran. there is no bit of a language barrier. but he said she was still able to say to him "daddy i want to go to a toy shop." she isjust a "daddy i want to go to a toy shop." she is just a little child and just wa nts she is just a little child and just wants things that all little children do and am sure they will find a way through. but obviously
10:52 pm
for macri this is fickle for her. but of police or even more isolated than she has been in the past. -- four nazinin. it must be heart—wrenching for her to not see her daughter so much. it's just heart—wrenching for her to not see her daughter so much. it'sjust a reminder that all the statecraft, all the geopolitics that goes on, it is about individuals and human beings and little kids get caught up in all of this. let's go back to the telegraph. i think we are all in the wrong business. concerning if you area wrong business. concerning if you are a taxpayer, these are figures that the nhs and nhs trust are paying out. more than one month's salary in the day. you could earn £4000 a shift. i think considering how many problems the nhs have with funding, ithink how many problems the nhs have with funding, i think people would be quite astonished to see how much you can earnjust quite astonished to see how much you can earn just for one ship.
10:53 pm
obviously consultants train for yea rs, obviously consultants train for years, these are people who have people pops on wives in their hands andi people pops on wives in their hands and i don't think anybody would get and i don't think anybody would get a proper sorry to, site for their time and skill. but i think it is more an administrative problem in the nhs because i think a lot of communities could be working at the same hospital over and over again essentially being a staff member but being paid these kind of rates was a has been a long—standing problem that they keep posting to get into grooves and never seem to get there. i think one of the fundamental problems that has led to this is the government, they have had disastrous nhs reforms which have causal kind of problems, but the failure to address issues like the pension situation that consultants and doctors are finding themselves in. but in leading to people who are employed by the nhs would happen to the normally if... they would have to send 70, 80% of their earnings back to the state. there is a real
10:54 pm
issue the ghost of the heart of government policy here which is led to all of this and it is certainly not a question of an agreement and money they don't deserve. and not everybody works a 32 hour shift. one shift and still have your wife and their hands. the daily mail, let's finish off on another medical story. and adjust boss slams myths at school kate. thank goodness they change their tune on this. they give a lot of credence in the past to those including the notorious doctor wakefield who suggested that the mmr jab was dangerous and that was a shameful attitude for the daily mirror to adopt. the change their mind and they now recognise that these jabs are absolutely crucial as they always have been and they are getting good publicity to simon stevens who you may know is the chief executive of nhs england who i used to work with in downing street.
10:55 pm
his warning that parents should listen to the experts and not listen to this other tittle title.|j listen to the experts and not listen to this other tittle title. i think in defence of the press, we followed wakefield and the story back in 1998. he wrote a piece for the la ncet 1998. he wrote a piece for the lancet a respected medicaljournal andi lancet a respected medicaljournal and i think the press rightly followed that story up. it would be a dereliction to ignore a sort of thing like that but obviously, his research has been widely discredited ever since and the daily mail this week has said it has changed its position and want it to campaign and make parents take up these jabs because it is been quite a problem over the last few years of people not wanting to put their kids through these jabs. but we have had to hunt a 38 cases of measles at the beginning of the year and we have been measles free a few years before that. i think a lot of the problem
10:56 pm
is through social media and the prime minster says he will act with a social media unit to stop them allowing these myths to be spread. and the school, it is reflecting the problems we have, is the same problems we have, is the same problem happening around school gate is on social media. this must be addressed. many people forget what measles can do. thank you very much my back again at 11:30pm. a few more new stories but for now, that is it on bbc news. i am back at the top of the hour with all the latest days news. stay with us for that. and let's squeeze and it would a bit of weather before that. the heavens opened again today across some parts of the country and they will remain open through tonight and tomorrow and further rain to come even a risk
10:57 pm
of flooding in some areas but it is not all bad. there is some sunshine in the forecast this saturday. let's have a look at the big picture. . this is stretching across the north american coast stretched like a ribbon into southern and central parts of the uk. to the south of that many parts of weather where you can see with the jet stream is pushing the weather front in our direction. not pushing it towards the south here in the mediterranean. the weather is looking great, warm there. but we have the october chill. early hours of the morning across the northern two thirds of the country, relatively clear compared to the south. and it will be fairly chilly. temperatures of around six, 7 degrees where it is in the south i will call it not quite so chilly, 12 degrees in london first thing in the morning on saturday. let's have a look at the forecast. that weather front stretches all the way into central
10:58 pm
and eastern parts of europe and hear the rain would just continue to fall on and off all through the course of the day. from the west country, central southern england, not a great picture, we will need waterproof coats. to the north of that, the weather is looking absolutely fine certainly some sunshine on the way. saturday night into sunday continuing to rain across southern areas but notice that weather front moving a little bit further north. on sunday it is more central and with in areas that get rain but notice it is not the one sort of her hearing area of rain, blobs of rain here moving north and little speckles of rain here. another one was out to the north sea and the weather improves here. so sunday i think in the south is going to be a little bit better whereas in the north it goes downhill. and then sunday night into monday sort of one weather system moves away and gets replaced by another one coming off the atlantic which has a whole succession of these weather fronts heading which has a whole succession of
10:59 pm
these weatherfronts heading in which has a whole succession of these weather fronts heading in our way. and none of them are pretty straightforward. some of them moved towards the east, another one moves towards the east, another one moves towards the east, another one moves towards the north, blobs of rain here across the west on monday whereas eastern areas are looking dry and bright. so very changeable. and i think that is how it is going to stay really for the next few days. you are up—to—date.
11:00 pm
this is bbc news. the headlines at 11pm: five people are injured in a knife attack in the arndale shopping centre in manchester. counterterrorism police are investigating and have detained a man in his 40s. we will have increased patrols including armed patrols in the city centre this weekend. this is to reassure people. but we do not believe that there is a wider threat at this time. brexit talks intensified between the uk and the eu, but both sides say there is still a way to go. brexit is like climbing a mountain. we need vigilance, determination and patience. the un says 100,000 people have left their homes
