is caught do right. emmanuel macron is caught right in the middle of this. that will imply some sort of bad news coming down the pipe tomorrow night to the french people. he does talk in the article about if you put the big cities, if he does something in lockdown. france has a real problem like britain, and it's the big cities and different communities in those cities in different ways. including spain as well. let's move on to the new york times. it's interesting how they put europe together, outbreaks in europe put bra kes together, outbreaks in europe put brakes on economy. all those members in the eurozone, talking about not getting any recovery until 2022. this is very interesting from both

points of view. having much words outcomes, and in the states that suffered very badly, they constantly compared themselves. if you watch the television and read their newspapers, with europe, we know now that europe is suffering and economies are contracting. the optimism a lot of european countries we re optimism a lot of european countries were admitting in july optimism a lot of european countries were admitting injuly when something —— in some instances of cases were being suppressed and economies were opening up. now we see a second economies were opening up. now we see a second wave economies were opening up. now we see a second wave and everyone is struggling. how many deaths are

tolerable? 12.696 contraction warned in spain, but of course they've already agreed up bailout package which will run to trillions of. it's germany getting the chequebook again. this will be germany's big, big checkwriting session in the next year or $0, big checkwriting session in the next yearorso, simply to big checkwriting session in the next year or so, simply to bail out and create this package. and the problem is it's interesting for a brit to see this, the article is about the eurozone. the article is about the eu, not us. these are your export markets, american markets, and you sell to these countries when the economy goes down and or in europe.

the eu has in the norman ‘s problem, which is how to pay for all this. in europe, it's one, possibly two or three smaller, but one or two countries doing it. that will be an enormous bill in the next year to meet it, but probably the next ten yea rs meet it, but probably the next ten years to meet it, but probably the next ten yea rs to pay meet it, but probably the next ten years to pay for it. onto the ft, henry. trump is in pennsylvania tonight trying to see if he can squeeze any more out of his white base. a lot of voters there who are not college—educated perhaps could focus on who didn't before. joe biden, what do you make of the campaign so far? great contrast between what trump did yesterday. very little social distancing, very few masks, relaunching himself as

the come back clean. even saying he was going to kiss everyone out there —— comeback king. tomorrow, joe biden will be very different, much more low— key, and biden will be very different, much more low—key, and presenting himself as the man who will stabilise the usa and present himself as somebody who is essentially going to rescore america to its crisis —— restore america to its crisis —— restore america to its rightful place in the world. not as much energy as trump, but he will present himself as the grown up but he will present himself as the grown up in town. my mum, god rest her soul, they had an indian expression for you're losing it. the time were all soldiers... it means you're losing it, going a bit

deranged. quite a few people mentioned this to me in the last 48 hours, they wonder whether trump has been caught by this election fever, this need to come back king to show he's above all this. what he means of course is, i think he's losing it. this guy is getting to a position where he's not actually hitting it on the head. biden is going into a trump stronghold and going into a trump stronghold and going into a trump stronghold and going into summer and saying, "trust me, bea going into summer and saying, "trust me, be a republican democrat." he's trying to get the republicans to vote democrat. i think if he can do it in florida, he could do it anywhere. trump has to provide some gravity in the next week or so, or he's completely down the water

because i think the overreaction is something which a lot of people are being very cynical about and suspecting whether he's actually still got it. henry, you have 25 seconds. there's one story in the telegraph, liverpool and united breakaway project big picture be mac these are the clubs that want to change their relationships. they claim it will help the smaller club survive. about 13 think they want to keep all the power for themselves and increase their power. next time around, not now, because we run out of time. i'm really sorry. i can't hear you. for now, thank you very much indeed. they will be back on the uk news channel in about 35 minutes. that's it for now.

the ceo of british gymnastics, jane allen, has said she will stand down from her position in december. allen says that her decision is part of a retirement plan, and not as a direct consequence of allegations of bullying within the sport. she's been speaking to our sports editor dan roan. i'm devastated about the fact that the athletes have felt they've had to come forward. i feel that the athletes have been so brave and speaking out, but at the end of the day, i've got to look at what of the barriers in place that has stopped these athletes from coming forward? and these are the things that need to be flushed out by the review and hopefully be able to make some changes to ensure that the athletes can speak out when these things happen to them. for more on that story, head to the bbc sport website. that is all your support for now.

good evening. we've had some wet and dry weather today. i think the emphasis will be on dry weather, but still some showery reigned to contend with through tonight into the early hours of tomorrow. some showers down towards the south of england, parts of wales as well, maybe a little of rain into northern ireland later into the night. temperatures generally 5—8 , some very sheltered spots can get down to freezing. maybe some in northern ireland, further showers to the day moving across eastern and central parts of england, perhaps getting into east wales. but for most of us, it's largely fine. some sunshine, a fairly windy day and a fairly cool feeling one. temperatures on the face of it a little higher, but i think the wind will take the edge off those values. as we head toward the end of the week, it stays largely dry and it will also be

cloudy and feel decidedly cool.
