and then lauren made one out of string and it's really funny so i think they are great ideas. a couple of years went by, and then the news last month they had all been dreaming of. it nearly went in the junk box, i must admit. and then i thought, oh, better just check. and got quite a surprise! i was shocked. well, i'm not allowed to wear it because of covid but let me show you one of the first plastic—free red noses made from a by—product of sugar cane. we felt well and truly nudged, well and truly told off and it has been a long journey but i think we've got there. they are gorgeous noses and we are really pleased to be sort of part of a younger generation that is, you know, insisting that we all do something about climate change. over the last three decades, the plastic red nose has raised over

£70 million for charities. since we are a small school of around 110, and out of the whole country, they actually listened to us. they certainly did, and from now on, the red nose will be a lot greener. fiona lamdin, bbc news. time for a look at the weather, here's louise lear. glorious morning in north yorkshire, suchis glorious morning in north yorkshire, such is the beauty of a bit of shelter from the pennines. such is the beauty of a bit of shelterfrom the pennines. plenty such is the beauty of a bit of shelter from the pennines. plenty of sharp showers to the west across north—west england and wales and some have been merging togetherfor longer spells of rain and will drift east accompanied by a rather stiff wind as well. still under the influence of low pressure at the moment, showers rattling through this afternoon but they will do at quite a pace, particularly around south wales and south—west england accompanied by gale force winds.

north—east england and scotland seek the best sunny breaks and 14—16 widely. this evening and overnight, the showers in england and wales tend to ease away but the north—westerly wind continues to drive in some showers to the north—west of the great glen and thatis north—west of the great glen and that is how it will stay moving into wednesday. under clear skies, we might see temperatures down into single figures. a chilly start in some spots, glorious for some with a lot of sunshine coming through. we keep the showers in the far north—west of scotland and by the end of the day, signs of more wet weather arriving to the south—west. highest of 16, 61 fahrenheit. this is where it gets tricky because the rain will move through on wednesday night into thursday. the potential for some heavy and persistent rain in england and wales on thursday. looking at that system trailing back into the atlantic, these waves of

wet weather will move in across the south, making it tricky to know exactly where the heaviest rain will be. potential on kos on thursday, maybe a bit further north as well and if that happens, we might not reach 17 degrees but there will be drier and brighter interludes on thursday further north. more rain in england and wales on friday before we finally started to get a breather with the weather story heading into the weekend. that is because high pressure is set to build very slowly from the west, moving in from the atlantic. it means we run the risk ofa atlantic. it means we run the risk of a few showers in eastern england at the start of the week in and the wind direction comes all the way from the north. a noticeable difference to the feel of the weather at the weekend as the blue colours take over, becoming calmer, drier but noticeably colder. thank you. that's all from the bbc news at one so it's goodbye from me

good afternoon, it's 1.30pm and here's your latest sports news. a third liverpool player has tested positive for coronavirus in the space of a week. xherdan shaqiri found out he had the virus while on international duty with switzerland and he's now in isolation. it follows positive tests at the club for sadio mane and thiago alcantara. arsenal's new signing thomas partey is a classy player who'll fit in well with mikel arteta's managerial style, according to his ghana team—mate kwesi appiah, the former crystal palace striker and afc wimbledon striker. partey cost arsenal £16 million — that was the biggest deal on transfer deadline day — and many commentators are saying that was a bargain. appiah played alongside him at the 2015 africa cup of nations, when ghana reached the final,

and the pair are still good friends. iam super i am super excited. i am an arsenal fan as well so this is a double bonus. i am excited to see what he can bring to the league. i know he isa can bring to the league. i know he is a talented player. anyone who knows anything about knows he is a good addition to the premier league, that's for sure. england rugby head coach eddiejones is waiting for news of three players who'll have to withdraw from the upcoming 28—man training camp if they test positive for coronavirus. he was already unable to select players from six sides, because of the premiership play—offs and the delayed sale—worcester match, due to be played tomorrow because of an outbreak of the virus at sale. jones said he understood the current situation was likely to affect national squads, referring to the three england footballers who'd been dropped by england after breaking covid—19 rules and he's hoping he can relying on players to act responsibly. they are young men, that

sometimes make mistakes. we are not going to be any more perfect than any other team, but we are going to strive to set a good example and be good role models for the people around england and people around the rugby community, about the responsibility to act with discretion, to act following the regulations at the moment and that is all we can do. the uncapped bristol fly—half callum sheedy has been named in the wales squad for their six—test autumn schedule. he played for england in a non—cap game against the barbarians last year and he also qualified for ireland through his parents. sheedy has been a pivotal figure behind bristol's qualification for the premiership play—offs and european challenge cup final this season. he's one of seven uncapped players in a 38—strong squad. the laws of women's rugby union will be adapted to allow the premier 15s league to start this weekend. the changes mean players won't be tested for coronavirus but they will have to adhere

to strict guidelines, including temperature checks and hygiene protocols. teams will play 35—minute halves and there will be fewer scrums. reserve weekends have been built into the fixture list to allow for matches to be rearranged in case of an outbreak. britain's geraint thomas has been forced to pull out of the giro d'italia, after suffering a fracture to his pelvis in a crash before yesterday's third stage. as the peleton headed for the start, thomas hit a water bottle that had come loose from one of the other rider's bikes. he continued on the stage to mount etna but the damage was visible and he lost more than 12 minutes. a scan yesterday night was inconclusive but a second this morning revealed the fracture. thomas said it was very frustrating, especially as he was feeling in better shape than when he won the tour de france two years ago. britain's jamie murray and neal skupski have been knocked out in the quarterfinals of the french open —

there's more on that and all the latest from roland garros on the bbc sport website. i'll be back with more later. you are watching bbc news. borisjohnson, has announced what he called a green industrial revolution to transform the economy and create thousands of jobs. the prime minister told the online conservative party confence that in ten years' time, all british homes would be powered with offshore wind. mrjohnson said the country could not go back to the way it was before the pandemic, but would become a better place with improved transport and more homes. there is one area where we are progressing with gale force speed and that is the green economy. the green industrial revolution that in the next ten years will create hundreds of thousands, if not millions ofjobs. i can today announce that the uk

government has decided to become the world leader in low—cost clean power generation, cheaper than coal, cheaper than gas, and we believe that in ten years time, offshore wind will be powering every home in the country with our target rising from 30 gigawatts to a0 gigawatts. you heard me right. your kettle, your washing machine, your cooker, your heating, your plug—in electric vehicle — the whole lot of them will get their juice cleanly and without guilt from the breezes that blow around these islands. we will invest £160 million in ports and factories across the country to manufacture the next—generation of turbines. and we will not only build fixed terrains in the sea, we will build windmills that float on the sea, and are enough to deliver one gigawatt of energy by 2030. that's 15 times as much as the rest of the world put together. far out in the deepest waters, we will harvest the gusts and by upgrading infrastructure in such places like teesside, humber and scotland and wales, we will increase an offshore wind

capacity that is already the biggest in the world. as saudi arabia is to oil, the uk is to wind, a place of almost limitless resource, but in the case of wind, without the carbon emissions, without the damage to the environment. i remember how some people used to sneer at wind power 20 years ago, saying it wouldn't pull the skin off a rice pudding. well, they forgot the history of this country. it was offshore wind that puffed the sails of drake and raleigh and nelson and propelled this country to commercial greatness and this investment in offshore wind alone will help to create 60,000 jobs in this country and help us to get to net—zero carbon emissions by 2050. the labour leader

sir keir starmer has also been speaking today — on a visit to frontline workers, he said the nhs needs more resources now, to cope with the additional pressures coming this winter. research out today, data out today, that shows a lot of nhs areas have got significant, extreme risk going into the winter. this is risk that needs to be addressed in the next few weeks, or years down the line and we'll get to the front line. and i have been with them here today, those health professionals on the front line, to give them the resource that they need going into this really difficult winter. moving on, the pm has given a rather big speech this morning. a list of promises, painting quite a rosy picture of what life is like after covid. what do you say to that? i think that what nhs workers on the front line, the professionals i have been speaking to do and the country one speaking to do and the country want

from the prime minister is a sort of frank acknowledgement that there are real problems with the government's approach. everybody can see that the infection rates are rising. lots of areas and restriction don't seem to be coming out of it and the testing regime just isn't working, we have even lost tests in the last few tests. so what people i think wanted, was a frank acceptance that those problems are there and a road map to get out of where we are now, and where we need to be. a road map, if you like from here through to when we get a vaccination. on test and trace, are there any specific lessons the government should be learning from the database fiasco? yeah, there are real lessons. one of them is that your testing needs to be massively improved of course but i think there needs to be a local element. tracing and the isolating is so much better if it is done locally. we have been pointing this out for weeks and months to the government. they need to do it and they need to do it now. local authority leaders, local elected leaders, health officials, they can trace and they can isolate. they are pleading with the government to let them do it,

so let's get on with that. the headlines on bbc news... boris johnson delivers an upbeat speech to the conservative party conference, saying the coronavirus pandemic must be a catalyst to speed up social and economic change. a highly critical report finds that the church of england spent decades failing to take child abuse seriously — instead creating a culture where abusers were able to hide. president trump leaves hospital and returns to the white house — urging americans not to be afraid of covid. as we've been reporting, a highly critical report has found the church of england failed over decades to protect children from sexual abuse, preferring instead to shield its own reputation. the independent inquiry into child sexual abuse said the anglican church hadn't take allegations seriously, and operated a culture where abusers were able to hide. earlier our home editor, mark easton, told my colleague joanna gosling about the details which have emerged. i think the enquiry wanted

to take an overarching look at what has happened in the church of england. as you say, over quite a long period. so they go right back to 1940, up to the most recent figures of 2018, and discover, you know, 400 clergy and church leaders who have been convicted in that time of child sexual abuse. now, that's a very significant number. one might imagine, it's a long period, that perhaps things are better now. but, actually, the most recent figures that we have available for 2018, we discover that there have been 400, over 400 allegations of recent child sexual abuse made to bishops in various dioceses around the country. in one year. and also in that one year, over 2500 concerns about safeguarding of children and vulnerable adults concerning members of the church of england.

so this is not some historical problem. what the enquiry is making quite clear is that this is something that needs to be dealt with now because there is still an ongoing issue, there is ongoing harm. and as you said in your introduction, they don't mince their words. they talk about the moral purpose of the church, to teach right from wrong and say they have failed in the way that they have tended to put the focus on the reputation of the church and their forgiveness of perpetrators rather than thinking about the victims of this, the survivors of what is a very significant amount of child sexual abuse over time. and in terms of all of those allegations, which as you say, are still coming in. what has the report said about how those are treated? because there are several examples, looking through some

of the detail of the report, of how allegations have been treated in the past. for instance, one claim, an archbishop said in relation to it, there was simply no possibility of the suspect acting in that way. one of the key themes that comes through is the way that the church allows those people who have been accused of child sexual abuse or other very serious safeguarding issues, to continue officiating in the church. sometimes they might say well you cannot work with children, but they will continue to officiate. and there has been case after case of senior clergy, against whom allegations have been made and who were subsequently convicted and jailed for child sexual abuse, where they were allowed to continue to work with the church. and one of the recommendations of the enquiry is that that should no longer happen, it's not

right, they say that somebody should continue to work freely in an organisation when these allegations have been made against them. it's extraordinary that that is still the situation. because although this report is hard—hitting, it's not like it's a surprise, because obviously this has been out in the open for some time. well, the church, and we haven't had a formal response from them since the publication of the report. the church has made it clear that they recognise that there is a need for significant cultural change. that it's not... words are simply not good enough. there was an open letter published a few days ago by the archbishop of canterbury and the archbishop of york and others. an open letter sent to survivors and theirfamilies which made it clear that the church felt that its actions in the past in the past had been shameful and that they were determined to do whatever it took to support and ensure that the church was a safe place for people to be part of. and i do think that the enquiry itself feels that there has been something of a change.

but what the report also says is that words are not good enough and the fact is that we are going to need to see significant action from the church to deal with what actually is a very serious lack of trust for many of the survivors, some of whom of course have never even come forward. nicola sturgeon has said that she expects to announce tomorrow any new restrictions to control the spread of coronavirus in scotland. during her daily coronavirus briefing, the first minister said the scottish government was considering targetted measures to be put in place over the next couple of weeks. it is important to recognise that cases are rising everywhere across the country and levels of infection now, in most parts of scotland, are higher than we can be comfortable with. most parts of scotland and mainland scotland in particular,

have infection levels of higher than 50 cases per 100,000 and if you cast your mind back to the time we introduced a local lockdown for aberdeen, the level of infection that triggered that was around 20 cases per 100,00. so, that gives you a bit of context of the rising situation that we are dealing with right now. we are also now beginning to see spread from the younger age groups of the population into the older age groups and, again, as you have seen from today's numbers, the numbers being admitted to hospital and intensive care and sadly the number of people dying, are also increasing. now, it is important also to say, just for perspective and balance, that partly because we reduced the virus to such low levels over the summer and partly, more so perhaps, because of the excellent work of test and protect, the situation is not out of control, but the situation is a cause of increasing concern. to give an illustration of that, two weeks ago, when i announced in parliament that people

would not be able now to meet in each other‘s homes, we were seeing an average of 285 new cases a day. that figure is now 729. that shows you, even in those two weeks, how the situation has accelerated. of course, and this is an important point to stress, we have not yet seen the full impact of those household restrictions on our case numbers and we are hopeful, very hopeful, that in the next few days, even without any further intervention, we will start to see these restrictions slowing the spread at which cases are rising. but we cannot guarantee that that will be sufficient and the volume of new cases that we are now seeing, combined with the prospect of further increases is the reason, and i want to be very clear about this, that the government is receiving a very strong public health advice that action over and above the existing restrictions is necessary. this is the point where i particularly want to level

with you and give you an insight into the decision—making process that we are going through right now. if this was a purely one—dimensional decision, where the immediate harm caused by covid was the only thing we had to consider, it is possible that we would now be moving in the direction of measures much, much closer to the kind of lockdown we had in march. but, seven months in, this cannot be and will not be a one—dimensional decision, it is very much a multidimensional decision. we have to carefully balance all of the different harms that are being caused by the pandemic and that includes obviously the direct harm of the virus, which we must reduce. that bit is not negotiable. but also, we must consider the considerable harm that has been done to jobs and the economy, which of course we have limited power to mitigate, and which we know will also have an impact on people's health and well—being and we have to consider the wider harms to health and well—being

that the virus and the restrictions deployed to control it are now having on all of us. and these wider harms weigh very heavily and striking a balance that minimises all of them is not easy. after all, as i have said already and as everybody knows only too well, we are now seven months into this pandemic, we know that the ongoing restrictions have an impact on our mental, physical and financial well—being, and i think people, and i include myself in this, generallyjust find it much harder to cope now with the implications of it all than we did back in the spring. on the positive side, though, and again i think it is important that we keep these issues in perspective, on the positive side, unlike in march, we now have test and protect. that is working well and as intended is now taking a lot of the strain of controlling the spread of the virus. so, we need to take all of this into account and while, as i said at the outset, we have not reached final decisions

on additional steps we might take, we have got some further consideration to do, i hope it is helpful, in light of understandable speculation for me to be clear about the some conclusions cabinet has reached about what we are not proposing to do at this stage, because of all of these different factors that we are weighing and taking into account. let me be clear, we are not proposing another lockdown at this stage, not even on a temporary basis. we are not going to be asking you to stay inside your own home in the way that we did back in march and while we have been asking people to think carefully about nonessential travel, especially overseas, and i would ask that again, and while restrictions on travel may sometimes be an options, may sometimes be necessary, for hotspot areas, we are not nicola sturgeon speaking at the

daily coronavirus briefing. ireland is re—introducing stricter nationwide restrictions after a surge in infections. from midnight tonight people will be asked to stay in their county of residence and organised indoor events will be cancelled. restaurants and pubs will be barred from serving customers indoors, employees encouraged to attend workplaces "only if absolutely necessary" and religious services will be moved online. all bars will have to close in paris today after the french government raised the city's coronavirus alert to maximum. restau ra nts ca n stay open if strict hygiene rules are in place. gyms and swimming pools will also be closed for two weeks. france reported nearly 17,000 new coronavirus cases on saturday, which triggered the latest alert. our paris correspondent hugh schofield sent this update. paris has automatically switched into a new alert level because the number of cases in paris has reached a new high and because the proportion of intensive care beds

that are taken up by covid patients has also reached a threshold, 30%, and what that means is that as you were saying, we have moved in paris to really the maximum alert, copying marseille which is the only other city to be at this level and that means, in the states' very rigid organisation that they have in france, that these measures kick in, this very much reported closure of bars and cafe is. if you go out this morning, as i would normally do and maybe have a coffee down the road in a cafe, i will find that cafe is shut because the reckoning is that particularly bars are the problem, bars, the government thinks, are where young people tend to congregate in the evening and they are being promiscuous in the french sense, which means mingling, over intermingling and that is how the virus is spreading. now, what you will find, however, at the same time, is that a lot of brasserie, bistro type places which you think,

well, they are bars, are not going to be open. and the distinction is that if you can show that you are primarily a food purveyor, and have a kitchen, a serviceable kitchen and a proper chef and all the rest of it, you can stay open, but with new regulations. that is in response to a big outcry from the hospitality trade here which, like in other countries, is in really dire straits and has managed to wring this concession from the government that eateries can stay open but with more, stricter health regulations. our paris correspondent. now it's time for a look at the weather with louise. hello there. it is an autumn afternoon of sunshine and showers, we are still under the influence of low pressure but most of the frequent showers look likely to be the further west and south you are with this weakening weather front. so, this has been the story so far today. some of those showers merging for longer spells of rain across north—west england and north wales, with the odd rumble of thunder and hail can't be ruled

out for the remainder of the day. and those showers will continue to drift slowly eastwards. accompanied by gale force gusts of wind across exposed coasts of south wales and southwest england. the best of the dry weather across north—east england and scotland. temperatures peaking this afternoon perhaps 12 and 16 degrees. as we move through the evening, some of the showers across england and wales will start to ease away. winds swing round to a north—westerly and driving in some showers here to the north—west of the great glen. elsewhere, we get some clear skies, we could see temperatures getting down to into single figures. so we start off tomorrow, still with that brisk north—westerly wind, feeding showers into the north—west of scotland. elsewhere, largely dry, relatively sunny. but we will see cloud enhancing and some rain towards the end of the afternoon into the far south—west. but, again, temperatures perhaps peaking widely into the mid—teens. a pleasant day. as we move through the latter stages of wednesday into thursday, however, there is another spell of heavy rain expected to move its way

across england and wales. the position of that rain still subject to change and particularly as we go from thursday into friday, you can see this trailing weather front and we have what are known as pulses of wet weather developing and moving their way across the south. now, the potential on thursday is for the rain due just to sit across the channel coast, but it could just be that little bit further north and if that happens, we will not get that 17 degrees. but there will be a good deal of sunshine across much of the midlands, northern england, wales, a few scattered showers into scotland. by friday there's more wet weather potentially coming across england and wales but there is a glimmer of welcome news as we moved into the weekend, because high pressure is set to build very slowly from the west. we still run the risk of a few showers across eastern england, the isobars coming from a vertical direction. a cold northerly wind is set to kick in as we go through the weekend, dragging in drier but calmer and colder weather for all.

this is bbc news. the headlines... the prime minister says the coronavirus pandemic must be a catalyst to speed up social and economic change in his party conference speech. after all we've been through, it isn't enough just to go back to normal. a damning report says the church of england failed, for decades, to protect children from sexual abuse — preferring instead to protect its own reputation. president trump urges americans not to be afraid of covid, after leaving hospital. don't let it dominate you. don't be afraid of it. you're going to beat it. we have the best medical equipment, we have the best medicines.
