this is bbc news. i'm lukwesa burak. the headlines at 5pm. the government says it's pressing ahead with efforts to pass a brexit deal this week — in spite of a letter the prime minister was obliged to send to brussels last night asking for a delay. we are going to leave on october the 315t. we have the means and the ability to do so. the prime minister's determination is absolute, and i am with him in this — we must leave on october the 31st. labour say whatever deal gets through the house of commons should be subject to a second referendum. whether it's this deal or any future deal, it's got to go back so the public and say, do you want to leave on these terms? and if so, then we do. if not, we remain. a double murder investigation has begun in milton keynes after two 17—year—old boys were stabbed to death

late last night at a house party. two men who were also injured have been treated in hospital. we are doing all we can to gather all the information. we know there were a number of people present at the party last night so officers are deployed and they will be speaking to all the people, trying to piece together exactly what happened. further violence on the streets of hong kong as police fire tear gas at demonstrators marching in defiance of a police ban. and after a nail—biting finish, wales beat france by one point to book a their place in the rugby world cup semi—final. the government says it's

pressing ahead with efforts to pass a brexit deal this week — in spite of a letter the prime minister was forced to send to brussels last night asking for a delay. ministers today insisted that the uk will leave the eu at the end of this month. it comes as labour says it will push for a new eu referendum when the government brings its brexit plans to the commons. here's our political correspondent, jessica parker. there's no point pulling the tents down just yet, not after yesterday's events. westminster is setting up for more battles to come, but ministers say they are confident that the prime minister won't be steered off course. the game changer this week, which was hardly talked about at all, is that he has defied the doubters and got a deal. we appear to have the numbers to get this through. the only question is, why aren't we getting on with it? it is after borisjohnson had to, by law, send this letter asking for a delay.

but where a signature would normally be — a blank. another letter makes it clear he thinks any extension would be damaging. labour's not impressed. the law is very clear. he should have signed one letter in accordance with the law. he's being childlike. as the government is set to introduce the legislation needed to turn its brexit deal into law, there are opposition plans again to try for a further referendum. we need an amendment to say that whatever deal gets through, it should be subject to a referendum where that deal is put to the public and they are asked, do you want to leave on these terms, or would you rather remain in the eu? so next week is going to be busy. the ayes to the right, 322, the noes to the left, 306. mps have made it clear that they are no pushover after voting yesterday to withhold any approval of boris johnson's deal. but this lot isn't easily

pushed around either. will eu leaders grant a further delay? here comes the architect of yesterday's manoeuvre which meant that borisjohnson had to at least ask for an extension. my own gut instinct has been all the way along that if we got to the end and we were going to crash out otherwise, and we had made a request for an extension, very probably you would say have an extension. super saturday has left its mark, though some think it was all a waste of time. a clear way forward hasn't shone through just yet. jessica parker, bbc news. earlier i spoke to jessica parker, who told us what we can expect in the coming week. monday, tomorrow, the government will at least try again for the idea of a meaningful vote, that is what they tried to do yesterday, a straight up and down, in principle, do mps back this deal? of course, amendments started being put in, things became confused, they didn't have that binary vote,

so they will try to do that tomorrow. however, speakerjohn bercow will get to decide whether that goes ahead, and i think ministers are feeling nervous because they think that he may not rule in their favour. so that might happen tomorrow, we should find out in the early afternoon. we also know the government will try to introduce the legislation that is needed to implement the brexit deal, so they are going to introduce that, we might get a vote on that on tuesday, and they will keep trying to push through this legislation over the coming days. ministers today voicing some confidence that they do have the numbers to get this through, but as ever nothing so simple, you could see amendments tabled to that legislation that make things ever so complicated. 0k...and labour have also been saying a lot, we are getting, again, this dialogue about a second referendum, another referendum. one of the amendments likely to be put forward in terms of the legislation is the idea

of a further referendum, so shadow brexit secretary keir starmer confirming that this morning, not saying that the labour front bench would table that amendment, i do not think we are necessarily going to see jeremy corbyn‘s name at the top of that amendment. whether the numbers are there, they haven't been before, we'll have to wait and see, but that will be on the agenda, and other ideas will likely come forward as well, trying to influence the eventual relationship that we have with the eu, such as whether we should be in a customs union or aligned to the single market. those ideas will come out. that is why the government's task of getting this legislation through very quickly could be made even harder. the tone of the letters that were sent, it was never going to be straightforward, was it? could we end up in the courts with these? well, there is a hearing scheduled for tomorrow in scotland at the court of session, my understanding is that is still due to go ahead. a couple of different views on this matter.

the benn act specified that borisjohnson had to send a letter, he has done that. obviously, he hasn't signed it. he did sign a second letter saying he didn't think an extension was a good idea. so there is an argument to say that he sent it, the eu received it, they are considering it, so he has met the provisions of the benn act. but another argument is that by sending the second letter, by not signing the first one, he has gone against the spirit of the law, and those are the kind of arguments you could see played out tomorrow. meanwhile, eu ambassadors met in brussels this morning. our correspondent, adam fleming, sent this update. eu ambassadors met for a grand total of 15 minutes this morning to talk about brexit, so they did not want it to occupy a lot of their weekend. the main subject was the ratification process on the eu side, which requires a few bureaucratic and legal steps, and a big vote in the european parliament in strasbourg, which could happen

as soon as next week. they got an update from michel barnier, the eu chief negotiator, who summed up the events of yesterday as a hold—up rather than a rejection of the deal. of course, the eu would rather have seen an approval of the deal. and in the meantime, donald tusk, the president of the european council, who chairs the summit, is going to embark on a couple of days of consultation with eu leaders about the uk's request for an extension to the brexit process, a delay beyond october the 31st. that consultation period has bought the eu a bit of time to sit back and watch and see what unfolds in the political process in the uk. they may not need an extension at all, if all goes to plan. there may have to be a short, technical extension if the uk needs just a little bit more time, perhaps to finalise the legislation that implements the deal into british domestic law. or if there is a real problem, if the stalemate persists and just cannot be unblocked, then perhaps we could be looking at a much, much longer extension, either to the end of january,

as specified in the british law that forced boris johnson to write the letter — some people here suggesting maybe even tojune next year, because that is the point at which the eu has to start making big decisions about its future and they would prefer to not have the uk hanging round the table influencing those decisions. but — but — if that is to be a big extension, we could see another summit of eu leaders before the halloween deadline for brexit. two 17—year—old boys have died after being stabbed at a house in milton keynes in buckinghamshire. two men were also seriously injured in the incident. they have been treated in hospital. this afternoon, detective chief superintendent ian hunter — thames valley police's head of crime — gave a statement in which he said those involved in the violence "are all likely to have known each other".

thames valley police was called at 11:59pm last night so just before midnight. two reports of a stabbing incident in arch court forward croft, emerson valley, milton keynes. tragically, as a result, won a 17—year—old boy died of his injuries at the scene and a second boy, also 17, was taken to hospital. sadly, he also died. two other males, one aged 17 and one aged 23, we re males, one aged 17 and one aged 23, were also injured as a result of this incident. it occurred at a private house party at that address. clearly, this is a dreadful incident and we are in the very early stages of the investigation. we have deployed significant resources and it is and will continue to be a fast moving investigation led by albert major crime unit. our thoughts go out to the families of the victims

and we have deployed specially trained officers to support them. we remain on the scene at archford croft in emerson valley on the scene has been cordoned off while the investigation continues. this scene is likely to remain for several days. i fully appreciate the concern that this will cause in the local community and beyond but at this early stage i believe the people directly involved in this incident are all likely to have known each other. there will be an increased police presence in emerson valley and if you have anything you wish to raise or any and if you have anything you wish to raise oi’ any concerns, and if you have anything you wish to raise or any concerns, please don't hesitate to speak to our officers and staff. it is important, of course, that our investigation team receive all relevant information. i urge anybody who can help, no matter how insignificant you think this may be, to come forward. we also want to hear from anyone who was in the area of emerson valley between iipm last night and of emerson valley between iipm last nightand iam of emerson valley between iipm last night and 1am this morning. so

please contact us by using the 24—hour nonemergency number, 101. quoting this unique reference number of 1761 of the 19th of october. again, that is calling 101 and quoting reference number 1761 of the 19th of october. we will also be providing access via our major incident police portal and further details on that will follow shortly. if you do not wish to talk directly to the police, you can call the independent charity crimestoppers anonymously on oh 800, 555111. that was the latest from thames valley police. more violent clashes have taken place between police and protesters on the streets of hong kong, with thousands of people marching despite a police ban. the pro—democracy protestors are increasingly concerned that china is seeking greater control over hong kong.

officers fired tear gas and used water canon after shops, banks and metro stations were vandalised. our correspondent, nick beake, is in hong kong. for the 20th consecutive weekend, hong kong's police have faced a battle to reclaim the streets. we saw violence on again today. earlier, there was a mass rally, thousands of people defying a ban on gathering and wearing masks, and they made their way through as part of hong kong, kowloon, normally a busy shopping district, but today we saw petrol bombs being shown at police officers and at the police station. officers fired tear gas from the top of a building, eventually water canon was used to clearly demonstrate as a way. the police fired really powerful jets of blue water, and eventually the people moved away. as you can say, they still haven't reclaimed the streets tonight, the big question, what happens next? china has said that people

who interfere in the situation here, they will be crushed, anybody who does that, so very hard to see a solution. the protesters and politicians seem as far apart as ever, all the while the violence continues. nick beake in hong kong. at least three people have died after a supermarket was set on fire in the chilean capital, santiago, as violent protests there continue. a curfew has been imposed in parts of the city after demonstrations began in response to a planned rise in metro fares. protests have since spread to other cities, despite presidential promises to suspend the move. the military was brought onto the streets of the capital to help police control the protests. the headlines on bbc news... the government says it's determined to press ahead with efforts to approve borisjohnson's brexit plan — even though he's been forced to ask for an extension to the deadline. a double murder investigation has

begun in milton keynes after two 17—year—old boys were stabbed to death at a house party late last night. two men who were also injured are being treated in hospital. further violence on the streets of hong kong as police fire tear gas at demonstrators marching in defiance of a police ban. the us secretary of defence says all remaining american troops in northern syria are expected to be relocated to iraq. turkey has been carrying out an offensive against kurdish forces in northern syria following president trump's decision to withdraw us forces from the border region. a temporary ceasefire has been declared but both turkey and the kurds have accused each other of breaches. it's reported that up to 300,000 people have fled their homes since the offensive started.

it was during a truce with forces. our correspondent, barbara plett usher, is a couple of hours from the border in the south of the country. earlier she told me there are sporadic reports of attacks but largely the ceasfire is holding. this is a temporary suspension of the turkish offensive, they stopped the advance for five days to allow the kurdish militias to pull out of a large zone along the border. that hasn't happened yet, the kurdish commanders say that is because one of the towns that has seen some of the heaviest fighting, ras al—ayn, is besieged by the turks and their militia allies, and they want to evacuate fighters as well as the injured, primarily, from this town, and said they would pull back once the evacuation had been complete. now, we understand that that evacuation has proceeded today, a large convoy of vehicles, 50 of them at least, including ambulances, have visited the town and taken out wounded and perhaps other people

as well, and so we will see if this is enough for the kurdish forces to say that is it, now we are going to pull out from this zone. they have until the end of tuesday to do that. the thing to watch is to see whether civilians leave, because the forces taking over the town are syrian militias, which are allied to the turks, and they have a reputation for thuggery and abuse, and people will be afraid, i think, afraid of them as the kurdish forces leave. barbara, this was partly instigated by the withdrawal of us troops by president trump which allowed for the offensive to take place by turkey, where are those troops, and what is it doing to that battle against so—called is? yeah, the troops are consolidating, actually, this is in northern syria, consolidating from various outpost into larger bases, and over the next couple of weeks they will be pulling out by aircraft, by ground convoys. they are not going home, though, as mr trump said, bring them home.

the defence secretary has said they will be moving to western iraq, and, yes, they had been in northern syria for the last couple of years, working with the kurdish fighters to combat the islamic state group, and in the process they have provided a protective umbrella for the kurds against the turks, who see them as terrorist groups. that has been lifted, we have seen what has happened, but what will happen to the fight against the islamic state group? well, the defence secretary has said that is being discussed, one option might be for special operations forces to carry out counterterrorism operations in syria from iraq if necessary, but also the kurdish commander, the commander of the kurdish forces has said they will continue the fight against islamic state in the territory that they still control, which are still quite considerable. president trump has said the turkish government, the turkish forces, needed to take control of the prisons in the area where they have invaded, the prisons that are holding islamic state militants. we are not entirely sure

what the picture is there, but the turks have said over the past 24—48 hours they have captured around 250 people, most of them women and children, family members of islamic state militants who escaped from a camp during the fighting. so the picture is still quite uncertain, and the defence secretary will be looking at ways to keep the battle going, even though the troops are pulling out, against islamic state. that was barbara plett—usher speaking to us from southern turkey. votes are being counted in switzerland's federal elections. polling closed a few hours ago, although 90% of votes were cast by post. the right—wing swiss people's party is expected to remain the largest party, but green parties are expected to make gains. image and fix has been analysing the impact these results could have.

the right—wing swiss people's party, the largest party in parliament for some years now, is the largest party in parliament for some years now, is certain to remain the largest party in parliament. nevertheless, it can't view today's results if they prove to be correct asa results if they prove to be correct as a success. it looks as if they have lost three, possibly 4% of the vote share. they were hoping to keep it down to 2% and would have viewed thatis it down to 2% and would have viewed that is not very good. it also looks as if they have not... they are not getting new voters coming on stream. people have turned 18 since the last elections four years ago seem to be going, many of them, to the green party, so i think we are going to see a parliament which is greener, left, younger and more female because there are a record number of women candidates. that means the old issues of the swiss people's party, emigration, staying away from the european union, which did not

feature in this campaign, are unlikely in the next four years to feature largely in the new parliament in switzerland. the mother of a junior doctor who went missing off the devon coast two years ago says her daughter has been let down by the nhs. dr lauren phillips‘ mother, andrea graham — who is herself a former nhs manager — has called on the health secretary to do more to support those on the frontline of our hospitals. marie ashby reports. andrea graham comes to woolacombe bay in devon to feel close to her daughter. this is where her car was found abandoned. dr lauren phillips, who was 26, had told her mother she was worried about starting a newjob in a&e in bristol. doctors have a fear that if they admitted they had struggled with a particular situation at work, or if they admitted that they were struggling from mental health problems, that that might be taken

into account in future career, or it might demonstrate that actually, they're not strong enough to be a doctor. lauren did seek help, and was advised to sign up with a gp. the nhs practitioner health service has supported thousands of doctors in london over the last 11 years. this month, it has been extended across england to cope with demand. its medical director is a government advisor. every year, if we compare it with the last year, we have had 100% more patients, so we are doing something to these wonderful young people, and i think what we are doing to them is not showing them kindness and compassion, and we are treating them as if they don't matter. one doctor every three weeks takes their own life in england. currently, the nhs is struggling with record demand and a shortage of 10,000 medics.

do you accept that understaffing has put more pressure onjunior doctors? yes, of course i do, and i see it in hospitals. and we are hiring more doctors, partly because of the pressures on them. and i want to make sure that everybody who goes into work as a doctor gets the support they need but also, people you know, when they sign up to become a doctor in the first place, they are signing up to work and give their working life to the care of others, and we need to care for them. dr lauren phillips‘ body has never been found. i don't have anywhere to go to grieve for lauren. i can't sit beside a grave. but this has to be a more beautiful place to be and to think about lauren. marie ashby reporting. and you can see more on that story on inside out south west at 7.30pm on monday and later on the bbc iplayer.

the longest non—stop commerical passenger flight has landed successfully in sydney. the qantas plane tookjust over 19 hours to fly direct from new york. the airline is considering whether to begin regular non—stop flights between the cities and it's enlisted the help of university researchers to find out how such a long flights affect passengers and crew. alanjoyce is the ceo of qantas. this is part of project sunrise and this is a first of three test flights that is going to come up with recommendations about how we manage pilot fatigue and how we actually manage passenger jet lag and after 19 hours on the flight, i think we have got this right. one of the people on that flight was ben mutzabaugh — an aviation journalist for travel website and blog, ‘the points guy'. earlier he spoke to mariyam moshiri,

about the experience. iam tired i am tired so it was 19 hours, 16 minutes and i am still awake here at 10p local time. we landed at around 8am this morning. so i'm not feeling fresh. what happened on the flight? what did you do for the 19 hours?|j was what did you do for the 19 hours?” was there as a journalist, to observe. what qantas was doing with this flight observe. what qantas was doing with this flight was doing some testing with passengers and crews and they had some professors and researchers on board and they were basically studying some of the effects on things that can cause jet lag and create tiredness and fatigue. on such a long flight like this. it was parked on normal flight such a long flight like this. it was parked on normalflight with people in suits, watching movies, but people also had monitors on and are undergoing various tests to see how

they were holding up. people were encouraged to do exercise regularly? that is right, except for the sleeping hours, and on a 19 hour flight sleeping hours, and on a 19 hour flight there is a lot of time to sleep. every two hours outside the sleeping window, they were taken to the back of the plane, which was empty, where they were doing stretches in the rear galley and one of those was even the macarena! it was a little unusual in that regard! dancing the macarena, having exercise sessions and being closely monitored, that would not happen at all on a normal flight. monitored, that would not happen at all on a normalflight. how realistic is it that this will become something of a norm?” realistic is it that this will become something of a norm? i share your scepticism with that and i do think that qantas, the ceo told me on the flight they are considering that if they do lodge these ultra long haulflights, that if they do lodge these ultra long haul flights, which that if they do lodge these ultra long haulflights, which would come in 2023 at the earliest, they are considering a special layout which would include a space for exercise 01’ would include a space for exercise or at least i kind of walking. i

believe they are considering it but the devil will be in the detail. like piano bars, we have heard about aeroplanes since the 70s! everybody talks about it and we have never seen one so i suspect if qantas does lodge these flights to london and new york from sydney, we might see some extra space to allow people on economy to stretch out but it will be interesting to see how much space that ends up being. and some have accused qantas of just that ends up being. and some have accused qantas ofjust carrying out accused qantas ofjust carrying out a big pr stunt? what is your take? i asked him directly about that and i think there is no getting around the fa ct think there is no getting around the fact that this has been a big publicity boon for them. i think the recently something to be researched. and that is not in small part because they need their pilots, if they decide these flights, the pilots will have to agree to go along and they will have to convince regulators that flights this long should have requirements to fly them. if they have data to back up

their push to get these long flights added, that will help their cause. where this falls between pr stunt and legitimate research, i think you could have a debate. but it is at least a little bit of both. that was a qantas passenger speaking to us earlier. the duke and duchess of cambridge have paid a second visit to a children's village in lahore in pakistan after thunderstorms prevented their return flight to islamabad. it's understood that the duchess was particularly keen to return to the organisation, which supports more than 150 orphans in boarding homes. after a quick game of cricket, william and kate were given friendship bracelets. now it's time for a look at the weather with darren bett. hello there. it's been a little chilly today underneath the cloud, and with a northerly breeze a lot of these showers or longer spells of rain that we've had in the north east of england are tending to fade away. cloud thickening, though, towards the south east, threatening to bring some rain

in from the near continent, and it should blow in a lot of cloud and keep the temperatures up across this part of the uk. but further north, we've got clearer skies, and it's going to be cold enough for a frost in parts of scotland. quite sunny here, though, to start the day, some sunshine for northern ireland. quite a cloudy start for most of england and wales. we've got this threat of showery rain towards east anglia and the south east, especially near the coast in the morning. elsewhere, few if any showers around by the afternoon, probably a bit more sunshine too, ten in the central belt, 1a for southern parts of england and wales. colder start, i think, on tuesday for england and wales, some fog patches lasting well into the morning. after those clear, there should be a good deal of sunshine. still largely dry further north, a bit more cloud, but a decent day for eastern scotland and also around the moray firth.

hello this is bbc news with lu kwesa burak. the headlines: the government says it's pressing ahead with efforts to pass a brexit deal this week — in spite of a letter the prime minister was obliged to send to brussels last night asking for a delay. we are going to leave on october the 31st, we have the means and the ability to do so. the prime minister's determination is absolute,

and i am with him in this — we must leave on october the 31st. labour say whatever deal gets through the house of commons should be subject to a second referendum. whether it's this deal or any future deal, it's got to go back so the public and say, do you want to leave on these terms? and if so, then we do, if not, we remain. a double murder investigation has begun in milton keynes — after two 17—year—old boys were stabbed to death at a house party, late last night. two men who were also injured are being treated in hospital i was so terrified, i got so terrified, and it was so disappointing, because this never happened in the area, we've lived in the area for six years, next year it will be seven years, and i've not seen such a thing. further violence on the streets of hong kong as police fire tear gas at demonstrators marching in defiance of a police ban.

sport now and for a full round up, from the bbc sport centre. we from the bbc sport centre. will kick things off inja wales we will kick things off injapan. wales are through to the semifinals of the rugby world cup after they came from behind to beat france. ross moriarty sealed the victory after france were reduced to 1a men. the third world cup semifinal for wales to follow their exploits of 1997 and 2011. dan wales arrived full of expectation. six nations grand slam winners, unbeaten in japan, these six nations grand slam winners, unbeaten injapan, these days they are firm favourites in such big games. now they had to live up to that status and extend the farewell of their legendary coach warren gatland in this, his last tournament in charge. he won't have enjoyed this, though, france started superbly as first the giant and then

charles oliver on put them 12—0 up inside eight minutes. which france would turn up? now we knew. wales needed to respond. they immediately did so. aaron wainwright pouncing and going clear. with officials under pressure to clamp down on high tackles, moriarty was always going to pay for this. while he was in the thin bin, his team were punished. —— while he was in the sin bin. france needed to keep their discipline. instead, an act of violence as daft as it was dangerous here. the fans showed what they thought, the officials agreed, france would play the last half hour one man down. although games can hinge on such moments, wales struggled to make their advantage count. but with the final whistle approaching, the ball bubbled loose and moriarty rescued his team. dan biggar‘s conversion edging wales ahead for the first time. france's heroic defiance was over, they had left it late, they had ridden their luck, but wales had

dug deep into their resolve and somehow found a way. a second home nation through to the semifinals. all of wales will be breathing a huge sigh of relief tonight after one of their teen's most important and emphatic victories. farfrom their best here, but having found a way to prevail they now all believe they can reach a first—ever world cup final they can reach a first—ever world cupfinaland give they can reach a first—ever world cup final and give warren gatland's long and successful tenure its defining moment. —— team's most important and emphatic victories.” think the better team lost today. the thing about our boys is they don't give up. they kept going until the end. we kept working away. toughness all game. came out of the blocks quite well. we scored first next. then we stuck in the game. it was a significant moment. japan's fairy tale run has come to an end at their home world cup as they were

overpowered by south africa in sunday's second quarterfinal. it's the first time they had reached the knockout stages of the rugby world cup, and they had done so playing some exhilarating rugby. however japan's trademark fast hands were met with brute force by south africa who are into the semifinals for the fifth time in their history. andy swiss reports. this was a night when japan's thrilling world cup adventure came to an end as south africa proved one test too far for them. four years ago, japan pulled off one of the great upsets in rugby when they beat south africa at the world cup. south africa took control after the first try after just three minutes through... in the second

half south africa stretched clear, three penalties from andre pollard, and two late tries sealed their passage through to the last four, the first from the clerc after mapimpi scored his second of the night to seal their victory. south africa go through to the semifinals where they will face wales. as for japan, it has been somejourney where they will face wales. as for japan, it has been some journey for them, this, theirfirst ever quarterfinal in world cup history. but their brave efforts of making it through to the last four have ended in disappointment. the other semifinal was decided yesterday. it'll be england against new zealand on saturday. the all blacks are in ominous form with the reigning champions beating ireland. but eddiejones think s they are beatable. they have got good leadership. if you give them the sort of ball they want they are difficult to defend against. but

they have weaknesses. are they beatable? every team is beatable, nobody has a 100% record in rugby, nobody has a 100% record in rugby, no one averages 100 percent in any sport. any team has a chance. michael cheika has stood down as australia's head coach following yesterday's heavy defeat to england. his contract was due to expire at the end of the year anyway but he said last year he would quit if australia didn't win the world cup. i have no regrets about making the call but yes i would love to stay on. you know what i mean? ifeel attached to the team. it's an honour doing thisjob. doing this role, as the coach of australia, it is not given to a lot of people, and i take it with a lot of pride and a lot of honour. but, like i said, i made my call, and i wanted to show that i was prepared to put myself on the line to achieve what i believed the

tea m line to achieve what i believed the team could. i've got to stand by what i said. just one game in the premier league this afternoon. liverpool could move eight clear at the top of the table again if they maintained their 100% start to the season. they are taking on manchester united at old trafford with manchester united starting the day just one with manchester united starting the dayjust one point above the relegation zone. it has been an end to end match. united taking the lead through marcus rashford, he got on the end of a fantasticjames cross. a whiff of controversy, a potential foul in the build—up on divock origi. at the goal stood. while at the other end, on the cusp of half—time, mane scored, only forvar to deny him. 1—0 to manchester united with 51 minutes on the clock. in the championship, wigan denied nottingham forest the chance to move into the automatic promotion places. they won 1—0 at the dw stadium. jamaal is low with his first goal

tomorrow —— finished ahead of quartararo. that is all of your sport for now. back to you in the studio. thanks very much. in a moment it will be time for the bbc one bulletin with clive myrie — first, let's take a look at the weather with darren bett. more on brexit. the government says it is pressing ahead with efforts to pass a deal this week in spite of the letter the prime minister was. descend to brussels last night asking for that delay. labour says it would support an amendment, requiring the brexit deal to be put to another referendum. earlier i spoke to a professor of eu law at the university of cambridge. she explained the impact that such an amendment could have.

well, it muddies the water in a number of ways, not least in terms of time, because in order to have a second referendum, you need to have an act of parliament, and the act of parliament also needs to have the question determined and set out in the act of parliament. it is not the quickest it could be done, a second referendum, is 22—26 weeks, and that pretty much takes us up to may of next year, so that impacts on the question of how long an extension of the eu might give us. what we know is labour is helping to amend the withdrawal and implementation bill, the legislation i was talking about, an amendment to say that the approval of it would be subject to a confirmatory vote, essentially a second referendum. it is not clear, though, that there are enough votes in the commons to get that amendment through. for some it is the way forward, for others it is not, not least because it prolongs the process. from your position, how would you analyse the fact that they is this huge mismatch, not only within parliament over brexit, but also possibly with public opinion? there's so much technical language,

so much legal language out there, how is this affecting the country? well, of course, it is quite understandable that lots of people wanted to get brexit done, it is almost wall—to—wall coverage, and while perhaps you and i are deeply fascinated by it, a lot of people think it is an incredible turn—off, and so theyjust want it done. however, mps have a duty to make sure that it is done properly, and to make sure that the legislation that is passed is robust and withstands scrutiny, and also remember that this is legislation which is going to dictate quite a lot of our relationship with the eu for decades to come, so essentially what some of the mps would be arguing, people like dominic grieve, oliver letwin, we need to let parliament do its job to scrutinise is properly over the next few weeks, and then once we are happy, it becomes law, then we leave the eu, then we go into a period of transition, and during that period of transition we start negotiating the future relationship. ijust remember, as we keep hearing, this is just the end

of the beginning, not the end, because the negotiations over the future relationship will be extremely protracted, will be difficult, never before has a stage tried to negotiate to get further away from its nearest partner, it will be difficult to negotiate, and of course it will require a lot of skill on the part of the prime minister to explain the trade—offs which lie ahead, and none of these us has been discussed so far. —— ahead, and none of this has been discussed so far. so for those who are hoping we can get it done by the 31st of october and move and talk about other things, whether the nhs, schooling, i'm afraid they are going to be in for rude shock. it has been a cooler day today

thanks to northerly breezes. the weather pattern will change soon because high pressure will have more ofan because high pressure will have more of an influence on our weather coming in from the atlantic. this is the fly in the ointment, in the south—east, that low pressure threatening to bring more cloud, and also some rain into the south—east corner. elsewhere, the showers, even longer spells of rain in north—east england we had early on, those will fade away. it is becoming dry in most areas. clear skies in scotland. and it'll be frosty here, temperatures could be as low as —3 in the glens. much milderfor eastern england where we have more cloud around. into the start of the week, it is a quite a start, most places will be dry, as well. we have got this threat of showery rain across east anglia and the south—east. mainly near the coast in the morning. elsewhere, ithink south—east. mainly near the coast in the morning. elsewhere, i think any showers should tend to fade away, and the cloud will break up more in the afternoon to allow more sunshine to come through. after the cold start, temperature is 10 degrees in the central belt, 1a full southern parts of england and wales. high pressure is still around on monday

and into tuesday. it is mainly affecting the southern half of the uk. we have stronger winds further north. the coldest weather on tuesday will be for england and wales. not farfrom tuesday will be for england and wales. not far from a frost. there will be patches of fog around, too, which could lingerfor a good part of tuesday morning. once they go, we shall see sunshine far and wide for england and wales. more cloud with those stronger winds for scotland and northern ireland. the best of the breaks in the sunshine for the moray firth and the highlands and islands. around the middle part of the week, the first signs of change. northern area seeing thickening cloud, outbreaks of rain, still largely dry in the south, this weather front could bring some showers. most of the rain is coming in from the north—west on those weather fronts. briscoe winds for a while. a bit more cloud across the midlands, part of the south—east, some showers, not so cold to start with on wednesday. —— brisker winds. what a weather coming in across northern ireland. and north and west

of scotland, heavy hills over the hills -- of scotland, heavy hills over the hills —— mega heavy rain over the hills. still the threat of rain across northern areas to end the week, but further south we are looking at more of a southerly breeze which should lift the temperatures in the sunshine.

the government says it will push ahead with efforts to get a brexit deal through parliament this week, despite yesterday's setback. borisjohnson is expected to seek the backing of mps as early as monday or tuesday. ministers insist he has the votes. he's defied the doubters, got a deal, and we also now, notwithstanding the shenanigans in parliament, appear to have now the numbers to get this through. all this after the prime minister was forced in a letter to ask the eu for another brexit delay. labour says the public should have their say. whatever deal gets through, it should be subject to a referendum where that deal is put to the public. we'll be taking a look at what the next few days could have in store on brexit. also on the programme:

a double murder inquiry is under way, after two teenagers are stabbed to death at a house party in milton keynes. police and protesters clash in hong kong as demonstrators ignore warnings to call off a march. and wales leave it late to beat france, but are through to the semi finals of the rugby world cup. good evening. the government says its pressing ahead with efforts to get a brexit deal passed this week in parliament, despite borisjohnson having been forced to send a letter to brussels asking for another brexit delay. ministers insist the uk will leave the european union by october 31st, but labour says it will push for a new referendum on the government's brexit deal when it comes before the commons.

here's our deputy political editorjohn pienaar. they don't seem to know when they are beaten, even when they have been defeated. senior ministers marched into tv studios today with a defiant message. they will deliver brexit on time, by october the 31st, and being forced to send a request to brussels seeking another brexit delay wouldn't stop them. the game changer this week, which we partly talked about, is that he has defied the doubters, got a deal, and notwithstanding the shenanigans in parliament, we now appear to have the numbers to get this through. the only question is, why aren't we getting on with it? the ayes to the right, 322, the noes to the left, 306. what he called parliamentary shenanigans, others called an embarrassing defeat yesterday. that vote forced the prime minister to send a letter to brussels seeking to extend brexit for as long as it

ta kes to extend brexit for as long as it takes to parties deal into law and avoid a no—deal brexit on october the 31st. the prime minister didn't like it and didn't sign it. his opponents aren't impressed. the law is clear. you should have signed one letter in accordance with the law. he is being childlike. tomorrow, the speaker will decide whether ministers can try again to win the vote they lost yesterday. but either way, the commons will debate the detailed legislation that's also needed to pass a deal. now labour looks like pushing for another brexit referendum. we need an amendment to say that whatever deal gets through, it should be subject toa gets through, it should be subject to a referendum where that deal is put to the public and they are asked, do you want to leave on these terms, or would you rather remain in the eu? next week is going to be busy. today, the minister for brexit preparations chador planning sessions and conceded that extending brexit or refusing to is up to the

eu. it means we are triggering operation yellowhammer, preparing to ensure that if no extension is granted, and we cannot guarantee that it will be, that we have done everything possible to prepare to leave without a deal. the architect of the government's defeat yesterday, the mp who drew up the request to extend, can't see the eu saying no. gear my instinct was that if we got to the end, we were going to crash out otherwise, and we made a request for an extension, very probably, you would say, you will have an extension. eu leaders want to see how the political struggle at westminster plays out. they want brexit settled, but they will just have to wait, like the rest of us. let's get more from brussels, and our correspondent adam fleming is there. what is the view from where you are on the next few days overall this? the ambassadors of the 27 eu

countries had a meeting for 15 minutes where they discussed brexit. the focus was on the ratification process on their side. there are a few legal hurdles that have to be gone through here, and then the deal is heading to the european parliament in strasbourg tomorrow. meantime, donald tusk, who chairs the summits of eu leaders, is consulting with those eu leaders about the prime minister's reluctant request for an extension. but they won't seriously start thinking about it and the practicalities for the next couple of days, because they wa nt to next couple of days, because they want to see how the dust settles and the process plays out in westminster. frustration is high, but the desire to get this deal through is higher than i've ever known it. let's talk to our deputy political editor, john pienaar. ministers insist the uk will be out of the eu by the 31st of october. given everything that has happened, how feasible is that? boris johnson's team claiming again that they will deliver brexit on time

with no delays. where brexit is concerned, dominic raab and michael gove are nothing if not part of the faith. it is also about sending a message to brexit supporters ahead of the coming election that boris johnson is the true heavyweight champion of brexit, and not nigel farage and his brexit party. they will need a lot of fighting spirit. there will be a court case, with johnson that it might borisjohnson challenged for not signing that letter and writing another one saying he doesn't want an extension. from what i can gather this evening, the smart money this evening is that john bercow... he has been clear that he sees no need to rerun the debate over and again because the loser doesn't like losing. when it comes to a future vote, may be the next day, on the legislation for brexit, which you need to get the

thing passed, it could be that the government has more luck with all that, especially now that a delay has been pushed back. that has receded and they have gained the ground that we saw in the vote yesterday. expect a long, hard wrangle over brexit, something gruelling for the government, may be as gruelling as it has been for many people to watch this saga unfolds over 1213 days. a double murder investigation is under way in milton keynes, after two 17—year—old boys were stabbed to death late last night. police and paramedics were called to a house in the emerson valley area just before midnight, and katie austin has the latest live for us from the scene. an extensive police cordon remains in place after a house party at a property just down the in place after a house party at a propertyjust down the road here ended with two teenagers being killed. family members of one came to the scene today to leave flowers

and pay tribute, distraught at the loss of such young lives. forensic investigators gathered evidence today at a crime scene that started as a party for friends. on the front door of this house, a visible reminder of the violence that unfolded. police and the ambulance service we re police and the ambulance service were called to this residential street just before midnight last night after reports there had been a stabbing. 117-year-old died at the scene and another was taken to hospital, but also later died. two other people, a 17—year—old and a 23—year—old man, were seriously injured. today, neighbours expressed their disbelief at the loss of life. i have not seen such a scene until today, and it wasjust i have not seen such a scene until today, and it was just a shock and a blow to us for such young people. when we moved here five months ago, the lady said it was quite. ——

quiet. a double murder investigation has been launched by thames valley police. i fully appreciate the concern this will cause in the community, but the people involved in this incident are all likely to have known each other. no arrests have been made at this stage. the families of the teenagers who died are being supported by specialist officers as they deal with the devastating impact of knife crime. katy austin, bbc news. a 16—year—old boy is among six people being held on suspicion of murder after the death of a 26—year—old man in scarborough. north yorkshire police say the victim was discovered in the early hours of the morning with serious stab wounds near the town hall. he later died in hospital. after two weeks of relative calm in hong kong, tens of thousands of pro—democracy protesters have clashed with police firing tear gas and water canon. shops, banks and metro stations have been vandalised. mass protests began back injune, against proposals to allow extradition to mainland china.

critics worried the move would undermine hong kong's autonomy. the city's chief executive put the plans on hold, but the protests developed into wider demonstrations for full democracy, and an inquiry into alleged police brutality. last month the extradition bill was finally withdrawn, but protestors continue to march despite restrictions. our south east asia correspondent, nick beake, has the latest from hong kong. what bike they were told they weren't allowed to march today. they we re weren't allowed to march today. they were threatened with prison if they wore a mask. and they were warned by china's leader there would be broken bones for those who try to break up his country. but this is a pro—democracy movement that believes the world is on its side, and it is not backing down. we are here to fight for freedom and we are not scared about the chinese communist

party. we want our freedom and
