is coming up, if there is eu summit is coming up, if there is going to be a deal, it must be this week. i have barred myself from saying crunch week or date, but it is hard to see super saturday any other way, it goes two ways, either borisjohnson other way, it goes two ways, either boris johnson returns in other way, it goes two ways, either borisjohnson returns in triumph with a deal, garlands of olives thrown at his feet, he emerges as the man who delivered brexit. more likely, it is impossible to get a deal over the line, which means we are back facing our old friend, mr delay. on the question is whether boris johnson's delay. on the question is whether borisjohnson's do—or—die delay. on the question is whether boris johnson's do—or—die pledge means politically, he dies, or, whether he can survive a delay by blaming it on parliament or the courts. —— mr delay. we don't know the answer to that, i suspect he does not, either. let's have a look at the latest weather forecast now. good weather for ducks once again today, even rubber ones, here
1:31 pm

1:32 pm
the worst of it heading out into the north sea by the end of the night. even further west, rain peters out, tending to become drier, later in the night, lowest temperatures, six or7 the night, lowest temperatures, six or 7 degrees. tomorrow looks like being a drierday or 7 degrees. tomorrow looks like being a drier day than today. many places have a completely dry day, first for a long time. a little bit of sunshine, misty start, low cloud around, early rain to clear from the borders, north—eastern parts of england. one or two showers developing, northern ireland, wales, southern england. large parts of the uk will have a dry day. not promising huge amounts of sunshine but at least some dry weather to look forward to. temperatures, 14 to 16 degrees. more rain to come, a lot of it will come on tuesday night, this band of rain coming in from the atlantic, anchored by the area of low pressure in the atlantic. wetter weather, windy weather developing overnight, sweeping north and east. the rain will clear away fairly quickly, on wednesday, it will
1:33 pm
linger into the afternoon, across eastern scotland. decent spells of sunshine coming through, clean air, if you showers. those temperatures not changing a great deal. area of low pressure in the atlantic, that will come across the uk, strengthening the wind, were not quite be as chilly as night but it will be more rain at times. a reminder of the main story: the queen has unveiled plans for the year ahead for boris johnson's government, with brexit very much on the agenda. my government's priority has always been to secure the united kingdom's departure from the european union on the 31st of october. and that's all from the bbc news at one, so it's goodbye from me, and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc‘s news teams where you are.
1:34 pm
good afternoon, it's 1.30pm and here's your latest sports news... england can qualify for next year's european championship tonight if they beat bulgaria in sofia and third—placed kosovo fail to beat montenegro. one section of the ground will be closed off, following bulgaria fans' racist behaviour at matches injune. chelsea striker tammy abraham has already said that england players could walk off the pitch if they're racially abused. bulgaria's football union have called that "offensive", but gareth southgate says the team have been discussing how to react. we had to prepare our players because of what happened to us in montenegro. so, that was a process that we needed to go through before our next away fixtures, but outside of that we trust the authorities to make sure everything is in place and we are all, you know, everybody involved in the game from both countries is wanting to speak about the match. wales manager ryan giggs says
1:35 pm
the point they earned against croatia last night could prove vital to his side's qualification bid. gareth bale equalised just before half—time in cardiff to hold the group leaders to a 1—1 draw, but wales are still fourth in the table and they need to win both their remaining games and have slovakia drop points if they're to go straight through. i think on the balance of the game, pleased with the draw. it was a very -- it pleased with the draw. it was a very —— it was against a very good team and especially going 1—0 down, showed character and to get to go to get us back into it. but it goes down to the last two games now which will not be easy. but we have shown equality in this group that can do it. -- equality in this group that can do it. —— the quality.
1:36 pm
there will be a new coach announced taking over the women's american international team, taking over from jill ellis. it is this man. scotland's early exit from the rugby world cup has put the future of head coach gregor townsend under the spotlight. his contract runs until 2021, which of course takes him past next year's six nations, but not the next world cup. some think he's still the right man for the job. questions will be asked, they will bea questions will be asked, they will be a lot of criticism on social media and in the press, calling for gregor‘s head. but i think he has taken the gregor‘s head. but i think he has ta ken the team gregor‘s head. but i think he has taken the team forward in the time that he has been there, and the two and a half years that he has been there, and i think with some tinkering, one or two new players brought in, so more youth, trusting them, and just tinkering with the game plana them, and just tinkering with the game plan a little bit as well. he is trying to play this really fast 100 mph game, the fastest in the world, and unfortunately, at the
1:37 pm
moment, japan are playing it more effectively and accurately than others. but he has to look at that. but i do believe he is the right guy to ta ke but i do believe he is the right guy to take us forward. i think we must give him a chance. i think he has a great rugby brain and some great young players. they arejust great rugby brain and some great young players. they are just wanting the chance to perform on a more regular basis. dan evans plays his first tournament as british number one later. he's seeded eighth for the stockholm open and he takes on bernard tomic at around 5.30pm. evans has replaced kyle edmund at the top of the rankings, after edmund lost his seventh match in a row, in the first round of qualifying for the european open in antwerp. that's all the sport for now. you can find more on all those stories on the bbc sport website. that's bbc.co.uk/sport. bye for now. thank you. law and order has been at the centre of the queen's speech of
1:38 pm
the centre of the queen's speech of the premiership of borisjohnson. more than seven bells relate to crime and justice, others relate to increasing the national living wage to £10 50 a network. the queen started her address in the house of lords on the issue of brexit. —— seven bills. my government's priority has always been to secure the united kingdom's departure from the european union on the 31st of october. my government intends to work towards a new partnership with the european union, based on free trade and friendly cooperation. my ministers will work to implement new regimes for fisheries, agriculture and trade, seizing the opportunities that arise from leaving the european union. a new immigration bill ending free movement will lay the foundation for a fair, modern and global immigration system. my government remains committed to ensuring that resident european citizens who have built their lives
1:39 pm
in, and contributed so much to, the united kingdom, have the right to remain. steps will be taking to look after the legal sectors. of the financial institutions. the new legal plan will be underpinned by irresponsible fiscal strategy, investing in economic growth, while maintaining the sustainability of the public finances. measures will be brought forward to support and strengthen the national health service, its workforce and resources, enabling it to deliver the highest quality care. new laws will be taken forward to help implement
1:40 pm
the national health service's long—term plan in england and to establish an independent body to investigate serious health care incidents. my government will bring forward proposals to reform adult social care in england, to ensure dignity in old age. my ministers will continue work to reform the mental health act to improve respect for, and care of, those receiving treatment. my government is committed to addressing violent crime and to strengthening public confidence in the criminal justice system. new sentencing laws will see that the most serious offenders spend longer in custody to reflect better the severity of their crimes. measures will be introduced to improve the justice system's response to foreign national offenders. my government will work to improve the safety
1:41 pm
and security in prisons, and to strengthen the rehabilitation of offenders. proposals will be brought forward to ensure victims receive the support they need and the justice they deserve. laws will be introduced to ensure that the parole system recognises the pain to victims and their families, caused by offenders refusing to disclose information relating to their crimes. a new duty will be placed on public sector bodies, ensuring they work together to address serious violence. police officers will be provided with the protections they need to keep the population safe. they will also be awarded the power to arrest individuals who are wanted by trusted international partners.
1:42 pm
my my government will bring forward measures to protect individuals, families and their homes. legislation will transform the approach of the justice system and other agencies, to victims of domestic abuse, and minimise the impact of divorce, particularly on children. my ministers will continue to develop proposals to improve internet safety, and will bring forward laws to implement new building safety standards. well, vicki young, our chief political correspondent, spoke to green party mp caroline lucas earlier and asked her what was top of her agenda following the queen's speech. my priority right now is on climate change and if i could talk about that firstly, because important though brexit is, the climate emergency is the real question of life and death on this
1:43 pm
planet, and we havejust question of life and death on this planet, and we have just had six words and a sub clause, that was all that was afforded to the queen and the queen's speech by borisjohnson, so the queen's speech by borisjohnson, so that is massively letting down young people. looking forward to saturday, yes, of course, the big issueis saturday, yes, of course, the big issue is whether we can get a people's vote on that brexit deal. it is vital that this issue goes back to the people for a vital save. do you think the numbers in the house of commons has changed? it has privately been rejected. yes but it was within touching distance, the vote on a people's vote, and more and more mps are accepting, from both sides of the house, both labour party and conservative party, that it is the right thing to do and the deal should be put back to the people. would you be willing to support a caretaker prime minister 01’ support a caretaker prime minister orjeremy corbyn in the event that borisjohnson is voted down with a vote of no confidence? borisjohnson is voted down with a vote of no confidence ?|j borisjohnson is voted down with a vote of no confidence? i have always said thatjeremy corbyn is the official leader of the opposition should be given the opportunity to read that caretaker government and i would support him absolutely in that
1:44 pm
decision. it seems to me that we should not be playing party politics at the moment, this is about the national interest and that is to make sure that letter gets sent, get the extension to article 50. the national interest is about getting a conformist referendum, a people's vote on that deal, and if we support jeremy corbyn to do that, i would be glad to do that. earlier we spoke to the labour mp glad to do that. earlier we spoke to the labourmp hilary glad to do that. earlier we spoke to the labour mp hilary benn, chair of the labour mp hilary benn, chair of the brexit select committee, and asked for his reaction to the queen's speech. the government has announced a number of bills to do with brexit, they have said that they want to get it achieved by the 31st of october, but as things stand at the moment, there is not an agreement with the european union, where we are here on monday and the european council meets on thursday. the big question has to be, will agreement be reached, and if so, what kind of agreement, because it is possible that the european union will say,
1:45 pm
well, we have made progress and we have reached an outline agreement on a further pathway to progress, to borrow the phrase from last week, but we have yet to agree a legal text which can form part of a legally binding withdrawal agreement, and therefore, i think it is almost inevitable that we are looking at more time, whatever happens. but if there is a deal, well you pack it? if it is a deal based on a canada style free trade agreement, i will not, because that will be damaging to the british economy. it is even worse than theresa may's deal, and we saw last week the leaders of five really important sectors of british business seeing just how damaging it would be if we did not have a—level playing field with the eu, if we we re playing field with the eu, if we were not members with that being a big problem and members who do with medicines and deviation, they also said this would be a problem, i would not vote for that. we also
1:46 pm
spoke to the conservative mp steve baker, chair of the eurosceptic european research group. this was a centre ground queen's speech, i am very pleased that was the case. it does important things like guarantee the rights of citizens in any circumstances, it is open, tolerant, outward —looking and i am very pleased with it. but you are asking me about the deal, until there is one to be seen, i cannot give you an answer. i know it is driving journalists mad but i am looking forward to seeing the text of the deal that has been agreed. we are very open to open to voting for a tolera nt very open to open to voting for a tolerant deal and i hope that the eu provides that working with the prime minister to get it. on the basis that boris johnson minister to get it. on the basis that borisjohnson was one of those leading the brexit charge, would you not trust him to get a deal that would actually suit what you would like to see? i have every expectation that borisjohnson will get a brexit deal, which i will be able to vote for but again, until we see the text, we cannot tell you
1:47 pm
what we will be doing. of course, i rely on borisjohnson to deliver a brexit worth having, and if he does that, i will be glad to vote for it. that is where we are but we must get on to our other priorities, and i think this queen's speech settles out brilliantly, in particular in relation to justice, the out brilliantly, in particular in relation tojustice, the health service. it puts us squarely on the centre ground territory that the public want is to be on. that was the conservative mp steve baker. the time is1:47pm. the conservative mp steve baker. the time is 1:47pm. the headline borisjohnson boris johnson plasma government borisjohnson plasma government has set out priorities on brexit. opposition parties have said it is an election manifesto. hundreds of colleagues, friends and family have attended the funeral of pc andrew harper who was killed whilst on duty in august. the parents of harry dunn have said that they will only meet the american woman allegedly involved in the crash that killed him if she promises to return to britain.
1:48 pm
more on the situation in syria now. kurds in northern syria say the country's government has agreed to send soldiers to stop the turkish invasion of their territory. the death toll has been rising and earlier we spoke to martin patience and asked him what the latest effects will be? well, first of all, we just need to think about this, a week ago the kurds were allied with america. now that america's pulled out, the kurds have gone over to the syrian regime. now, according to syrian officials, the syrian army will push up to the turkish border. but what we have to remember is a propaganda war is being fought here and the syrian military is utterly exhausted, but it is worth pointing out the syrian government is backed by russia and iran.
1:49 pm
so therefore if turkey is to attack kurdish forces, it would be in turn attacking russia and iran and i think thatjust gives you some idea of how dangerous this conflict can be. we are at a very dangerous moment. as for the situation in north east syria at the moment, we hear it is chaotic, the turkish advance is continuing right along this border, with around 150,000 civilians now having fled the violence. so it is a chaotic situation and many syrians are simply running for their lives at the moment. families of people killed by sepsis are warning that too many patients are being misdiagnosed. last year, figures showed deaths in england's hospitals had risen by more than a third in two years. that's despite awareness campaigns and guidelines for doctors to help them spot the signs. there are more than 250,000 cases of sepsis in the uk every year. 25,000 of those patients are children.
1:50 pm
five people are killed by sepsis every hour in the uk. ava mcfarlane was five when she died as a result of the condition in 2017. our correspondent sian lloyd has been speaking to her family. wejust thought, you know, "we're in the best place, this is it, she's going to be ok." but itjust didn't... it didn't happen. she was already going into toxic shock. ava mcfarlane died from sepsis hours after being sent home from hospital. her parents had been told that the five—year—old, who had down's syndrome, should be given calpol for a virus, but ava's condition was much more serious. an inquest into her death found a number of opportunities to diagnose sepsis had been missed and that national guidelines hadn't been followed. i'm never going to see her get married, am i? and i'm never going to see her going
1:51 pm
to college, things like... it's those things i think people don't realise, it's notjust what you've lost now, it's what you have lost in the rest of your life. sepsis is a leading cause of death in the uk, but there were serious concerns about the treatment that ava received here at the queen's medical centre in nottingham.  to explain what changes have been made in the wake of her death
