good morning, welcome to breakfast withjon kay and louise minchin. our headlines today. a tax rise to fix social care. mps will vote later on plans for a £36 billion injection for health services. todayis today is the first step in introducing these massive reforms which will affect virtually everyone. the big question hanging over them is, will they work? who's paying? and how much? i look at what it means for you, yourfamily, and your business. more than 1000 migrants have crossed the channel by boat in the past two

days alone stop today the home secretary will meet her french counterpart to demand more action to stop the crossings. almost six years after the paris terror attacks which killed 130 people, 20 men will go on trial today. good morning. scotland are victorious in vienna. the win of austria sees them take a huge step towards a place at their first world cup finals in 23 years. it lost its funding just five years ago, but wheelchair rugby still managed to clinch gold at the paralympics. two of the stars willjoin us here in the studio to tell us how they did it. and whilst it is another hot day for many can hear in parts of wales, south—west england and the channel isles when we got close to 30 degrees yesterday, signs of change and the risk of thunderstorms. the full forecast here on breakfast.

it's wednesday the 8th of september. our top story. mps will vote today on the government's plans to increase national insurance contributions to fund health and social care in england. ministers say it will raise £12 billion a year, which will be used to tackle the nhs backlog caused by the pandemic and boost social care funding. but, it means next year will see the highest tax increase forfour decades, and breaks a conservative manifesto promise. 0ur political correspondent, helen catt reports. the covid pandemic has left the nhs with some big waiting lists to clear. funding social care has been a problem for years. the government's answer to both is to raise national insurance — against its promises. we cannot now shirk the challenge of putting the nhs back on its feet, which requires fixing the problem of social care and investing the money needed. so we will do what is right, reasonable and fair.

the rate of national insurance will go up for everyone from april next year by 1.25 percentage points. from 2023 it will show up on payslips as a separate charge — the health and social care levy. the government says it will raise £12 billion a year. this package of reforms, we believe, is unjust, it's half—baked, and it breaks very solemn conservative election pledges. so i think the first thing to do is point that out. 0nly15% of what is going to be raised in the next three years will go towards social care. and, actually, that's not nearly enough. that's because, to start with, most of the money will go towards clearing the backlog in the nhs, before social care gets a bigger share. i'm on message. from october 2023, nobody in england will have to pay more than £86,000 over their lifetime for care. but there are worries in the sector.

the problem here is that people who aren't paying for their own care because they haven't got any money, or because it's run out — they are dependent on the state to pick up the tab, and the amounts of money councils have to fulfil that responsibility hasn't kept pace with the growing demand — both from older people, but from disabled people of working age, as well. so those holes in their budget have continued to grow over the last ten years or so, and nothing that was announced really starts to fill those back up again. working people across the uk will pay the charge. the care plan is for england, but northern ireland, wales and scotland will get more money to decide how to spend. borisjohnson hasn't ruled out putting up more taxes in future. it's expected mps will vote for this rise later, but there are still lots of questions about how it will all work. helen catt, bbc news, westminster. that seems to be the question of the morning, how it will work.

let's speak now to our chief political correspondent adam fleming. there are lots of questions to answer about the practicality of this. ~ , ., ,~ answer about the practicality of this. ~ , ., , ., , this. we will be asking questions for ears. this. we will be asking questions for years- the — this. we will be asking questions for years. the big _ this. we will be asking questions for years. the big question - this. we will be asking questions for years. the big question is, i this. we will be asking questions. for years. the big question is, will it work? will this money, which is initially to appear up the backlog initially to appear up the backlog in the nhs because of coronavirus be enough and where the nhs actually be able to deal with the backlog in a way that means everyone gets good quality care over the next few years? the money is then meant to switch from going to the nhs for covid to the social care system. there are questions about whether the money will flow in that direction or whether it will get gobbled up by the nhs for ever. then there is a question about local authorities. it is your local councillor organises and pays directly for your care. will they have enough money and resources to

deliver this? then for people and families experiencing the pair, will it be of a higher quality than the pair people are getting now and ultimately will it prevent people having to sell their homes and will people still face quite big bills for care that feel quite stiff? you can gather all of those questions up into, as i said, is this going to work is to mark thank you very much indeed. we work is to mark thank you very much indeed. ~ , ., , ., indeed. we will put that question and others _ indeed. we will put that question and others to _ indeed. we will put that question and others to the _ indeed. we will put that question and others to the health - indeed. we will put that question l and others to the health secretary, at 730 am. notjust him lots of others on the programme to go through all of that. the home secretary, priti patel, is meeting her french counterpart today to discuss migrant crossings. according to the home office, 785 migrants arrived on monday alone, after crossing the channel in small boats. simonjones is in dover.

he had been viral week. still the crossings continue, they? —— you have been there all week. this time yesterday we were predicting it be another busy day in the channel and it is proving to be that. 0ver another busy day in the channel and it is proving to be that. over 400 made the crossing yesterday and on monday over 800 people on 27 boats. that gives an idea of the tactic being used by people smugglers. they are launching wave after wave of boats from france to try to overwhelm the authorities. they seem to be doing that. today priti patel is meeting her french counterpart at a meeting of g7 interior ministers in london. herapproach a meeting of g7 interior ministers in london. her approach will be interesting. at a private meeting with conservative mp she said she was really angry and threatening to withdraw some of the money britain has promised to give france to try

and stop the crossing. she may need to take a more conciliatory approach because this is not an issue britain can solve alone, it is an international issue that needs addressing. if you look back two and addressing. if you look back two and a half years ago, when one of the first deals was agreed between britain and france to try to prevent the crossings, the then home secretary came to david, went on board a border. at and declared a major incident. we were seeing around 40 people making the crossing then. now that figure can be 20 times that. thank you, simon. we will be with you later. the united states has criticised the make—up of afghanistan's new interim government, which includes figures accused of mass killings. a state department spokesman expressed concern that it only includes taliban members and close associates. no women or anyone from a religious minority have been named so far. 20 men accused of being involved

in the november 2015 paris attacks, including the only surviving suspected attacker, will go on trial today. 130 people dead and hundreds were injured when gunmen struck bars and restaurants, as well as france's national football stadium and the bataclan concert hall. 0ur paris correspondent lucy williamson reports. it was a night with no safe haven, when no—one knew where to run. when gunmen brought chaos to paris' bars and restaurants... ..its football stadium... ..the bataclan concert hall. stefan lost his son, hugo, that night at the bataclan. no trial, he says, can heal the pain. it was complicated because it's, first of all, a personal loss — the loss of a child, my son — and it's also a collective loss.

and then it was sometimes difficult to manage these two situations. 20 defendants are accused of murder, complicity, and terrorist conspiracy. salah abdeslam — the only suspected attacker to survive that night — is facing the most serious charges. 19 others are accused of involvement — including mohammed abrini, who prosecutors say accompanied the attackers to paris from their home in belgium. six of the accused are being tried in absentia. and for a unique event, a unique location. this temporary courtroom built exclusively for the trial sits within the historic court ofjustice in paris. the light colours have been chosen to promote a sense of calm, there's a secure box for the defendants, and ten cameras to record the trial for france's national history. the trauma of that night has continued to ripple through france.

six years on, what will it mean to see salah abdeslam standing in the dock? you know, you just imagine... you just imagine somebody with a strong intellectual... maybe... maybe i'm wrong. but people, we think, that's this kind of man who have done so awful things. stephane says he doesn't need to see the key defendant — but he wants abdeslam to see him. after six years, it's very important for me to face him and to face the other and to say, "ok, look at me, i'm there, i'm alive." my son is not there but through me, he's still here, we are still standing. you didn't win. for stephane, this trial marks the moment when national trauma becomes national history. easierfor a nation to move on, he says, than for him. lucy williamson, bbc news, paris.

we will continue following that try leather the days it happens. it is really gorgeous out there. beautiful sunrise in london at the moment. a bit hazy. air quality is not as good as you would hope. that will change over the next days. yesterday we saw temperatures get to 31 celsius in jersey and west wales. these are places where we would expect to see the biggest change today. some will be hot. towards the south and south—west we will start to see cloud and showers and thunderstorms arrive. today the chance of thicker cloud and heavy and thundery downpours later across parts of the channel islands, south—west england, wales. a few mist and fog patches at the moment which will clear. lots of

sunshine around. cloud in the far north of scotland. in the sunshine it will be a hot day with temperatures around 30 degrees. in parts of england this time. cooler, low 20s in the south—west. it will be humid tonight as well. sporadic thunderstorms pushing their way northwards and eastwards. torrential downpours with many staying dry. temperatures in their teens. tomorrow, completely different. lots of cloud generally speaking. some more showers will blossom in the western part of england and wales in the afternoon. temperatures down on what we have seen. it will feel humid on thursday with pressure conditions on their way from thursday towards the end of the week. that is how it is looking. i will hand you back to louise and

jon. sorry. thanks, carol. see you later. the weather and another half and our. —— in another half an hour. let's take a look at today's papers. the government's plan to fund health and social care leads all the papers. the telegraph says it means the country is facing paying the highest taxes since the war. the daily mirror goes with the headline "careless" as it says that struggling workers will be the hardest hit by the funding plan. the daily mail calls on the prime minister to "make the care worth the cost", saying it's good news that there's now a plan for social care — but warns about the tax burden. elsewhere, trending online overnight is the news that britney spears' father has applied to end his controversial control of her finances and business decisions. jamie spears took over running her life in 2008 because of fears about her mental health. it's been the subject

of a recent legal battle. that piece on the bbc website this morning suggesting it might be coming to some kind of legal and. lots of people out and about, still enjoying the late british bake off. that is how they had put it in the daily mail. this is richmond park yesterday. this is hope in derbyshire yesterday. crowds on the beaches and someone jet skiing. lovely yesterday. summer is finally here! september is always a nice time of year. it might not last terribly long. an interesting piece in the daily telegraph about the lengths the royal household is going to to recycle. they are talking about ego policies on honey and bird boxes but they say they even use any

bits of gold, excess gold that is being put on two cups and plates. if it does not make the final cut they will have to scrape it off, scratch the gold away and recycle it. even the gold away and recycle it. even the rags are collected and processed to extract the excess gold and assure none is wasted. what a lovely idea! this is sergeant andy livingstone, who has two daughters. he is a british airman on a flight from afghanistan. he is holding a tiny baby, only two weeks old. the reason he did that, the mother was so tired she just could not keep her eyes open and kept falling asleep and dropping the baby. he said out of the corner of my eye i saw something fall on the floor. the mother was scrambling to pick up her baby which fell on the floor because she could not keep her eyes open. he

basically ended up cradling this little girl while mum had asleep as well. another powerful story from afghanistan later on in the programme. from our defence correspondent. if you go to the supermarket this morning, think about this. this study in the times looking at the layout of supermarkets and how it helps us to make decisions. we know putting sweets, biscuits and stuff means he by impulse purchases at the checkout and the impact unhealthy limit —— on healthy living. shops sell 10,000 more items a week of fruit and vegetables when they put fruit and vegetables when they put fruit and veg on the way in. that properly makes the supermarket a bit more money as well. it is working for everyone.

plans to cap costs for social care in england will protect people against the �*catastrophic fear of losing everything' according to the prime minister. we are asking this morning, going into their proposals. under the proposals no one will have to pay more than £86,000 for their care, but as tim muffett reports, some families are already facing huge costs. my name isjonathan, my mother's name isjean. she is 93 and she's had parkinson's for the last 20 years. as his mum's health has declined, jonathan's faced mounting costs — emotional and financial. she has paid for her care herself all along — it's about £267,000 now — and that's come from £180,000 of savings, plus her earnings — because she does have an income. but now her half of the house is being sold, so she has basically left 166,000 to pay for the remainder of her care. and from my reckoning, that

will last herjust over four years. and after that, she will be quite literally penniless. campaigners are warning, although the new changes are welcome, the chancellor will still need to provide more money for council care services. jonathan thinks it's unlikely his family will benefit from yesterday's announcement. my overriding thoughts, actually, are about my father, who died — must have been 25 years ago now — he would so hate the idea that all his earnings, which paid for their home, are likely to go. i think that would really, really upset him. just one of the stories. the kind of pace these plans are intended to help. we'rejoined now byjoyce pinfield from the national care association. keep orjoining us. what do you make

of the plans? we have begun to understand the impact. what are your first impressions? we understand the impact. what are your first impressions?— first impressions? we have been waitin: first impressions? we have been waiting for— first impressions? we have been waiting for social _ first impressions? we have been waiting for social care _ first impressions? we have been waiting for social care reform - first impressions? we have been| waiting for social care reform and at last we have a plan. it does seem to be a plan for the long—term and will not affect straightaway, as it is not coming in in the immediate future. so it will be helping some people who are paying. we have to remember this cat is purely on the care element of the social care fees. —— thisjon. the social element part will have to be paid. they still have to get to the pap for the care section of the fees. —— the cap for the care section of the

fees. localauthorities the cap for the care section of the fees. local authorities have been cashed strapped for many years and i believe do not have much money in their pot to put towards social care as they did ten years ago for that this is where money is urgently needed, for local authorities to be able to put that into social care. at the present you any get social care element if you have less than £23,250 and then that is on a sliding scale down to 13,000. that element, that sliding scale, is going to be altered with these plans for 100,000 when the local authority rate kicks in, down to 20,000 when he will be funded by local authorities. they call it fully funded but of course there will probably still be the element you will be required to put the majority of your pension towards that. can i

'ust ask of your pension towards that. can i just ask you? _ of your pension towards that. can i just ask you? the _ of your pension towards that. can i just ask you? the issue _ of your pension towards that. can i just ask you? the issue about £86,000. that figure will have been seen by lots of families. that means we will not have to pay more than £86,000 for the care of our mum or dad. that isjust £86,000 for the care of our mum or dad. that is just for the care. it doesn't cover the accommodation, it doesn't cover the accommodation, it doesn't cover the accommodation, it doesn't cover necessarily food or heating or those incidental bills. how do you separate that? what are you imagining in the future? are they going to be two bills? will it be itemised? it sounds difficult for you to manage. it be itemised? it sounds difficult for you to manage-— you to manage. it will be an extra added burden _ you to manage. it will be an extra added burden on _ you to manage. it will be an extra added burden on the _ you to manage. it will be an extra i added burden on the administration of care homes and the care sector, all elements of the care sector. every person money go into social care has an assessment of an assessment of their needs. this is

where the care element will be based. it will not be a constant clickable everyone, it will be based on what your care needs are from this assessment which will be done at the point of requiring care. of course, people don't stay the same, they have progressive illnesses i even get better. elements of the care could change over time. it could be a constant review which could be a constant review which could require a lot of administration, a lot of assessment, and then we will have the varying costs of the workforce, which will go into the care element on the type of skill ex required to give appropriate care to that person. —— skill mix. fix, appropriate care to that person. -- skill mix. �* ., ., ., , , skill mix. a lot of extra expense for a family _ skill mix. a lot of extra expense for a family beyond _ skill mix. a lot of extra expense for a family beyond £86,000. l skill mix. a lot of extra expense j for a family beyond £86,000. it might be a cap on care 486,000 but you might have to spend an awful lot

sector. this is what we desperately need, we are at a critical point at the moment. we have over 186,000 vacancies in the care sector and this is getting greater on a daily basis. it is exacerbated by brexit and eu workers going back and not we want to bring people into work in the sector, we have to go through many hoops at great expense. even a lot of the carers that we do require will not meet the criteria of immigration policy at present. if this is not helping us in any way to increase the workforce to make sure we can give a good quality of care. at present we are losing quite a number of staff going to the nhs. the nhs is valued more, the pay is small and it is very attractive to our care workers at present to move

from social care into the nhs or even into other sectors where they do not have the responsibility, such as hospitality and retail sectors. it brings us back to the division between the nhs and social care. thank you forjoining us on breakfast. i am sure lots of you have your views on what has happened and what it will mean. if you want to get in touch, please do. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm tolu adeoye. a london council is sitting on a pot of more than £8.5 million of overpaid council tax. a freedom of information request found it relates to almost 67,000 accounts at lewisham council. those affected could be able to claim back an average of £130. the council said it can be difficult to trace people who pay in advance if they move out of the borough,

but there's no time limit on claiming money back. detectives have charged a further man with the murder of a 22—year—old in south west london. kai davis died after being stabbed near a nightlcub on clarence street kai davis died after being stabbed near a nightclub on clarence street in kingston on saturday the 21st of august. 18—year—old conrad adams is now the third man to be charged with his murder. a man who was told he had just a couple of years to live and lost the ability to walk and talk is on a mission to raise £50,000 for charity. phil rossall from 0rpington was diagnosed with motor neurone disease in 2016. since then he's done marathons in his wheelchair, and most recently taken up a blinking challenge. it's best not to dwell on what you have lost, but rather to concentrate on what you can still do. i was getting too weak to be able to take part in racing or other more physically demanding challenges, so blinking seemed to be the obvious thing for me to be able to keep doing something positive to help others who raise funds

for the mnd association. let's take a look at the travel situation this morning. the tubes aren't too bad — the central line is part suspended, though, between leytonstone and hainault — that's because of a power failure. minor delays on rest of the line. and just the planned closure of the waterloo & city line. and for all the other travel news — to find out what's happening on the roads — you can tune into your local bbc radio station for regular updates throughout the morning. 0nto the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. the last slice of summery september sunshine continues across the capital again today. here are some of our weather watcher pictures from yesterday — glorious blue skies in vauxhall and again in kew is captured by surbiton sue. and we are likely to see the same sort of scenes again today. little bit of mist around to start the day, but it's not a widespread problem.

certainly very mild out there, too, and temperatures will rise nicely in all of that sunshine. we're likely to see the high 20s again quite widely — 30 degrees celsius always possible toward central and western areas. perhaps a little bit of high cloud just coming and going at times, and that will turn the sunshine a bit hazier. you can start to see our approaching weather front from the west as we head towards the end of the day — that's going to sweep its way eastwards overnight. so it will turn cloudier, it'll still be mild, rather humid—feeling, and there'll also be some showers at times. and we're looking at heavy, thundery downpours potentially on and off through the day tomorrow. but it's still warm for this time of year with temperatures peaking this time in the low 20s in celsius. it's a bit windier still on friday, there'll also be some showers around, generally cooler and unsettled for the rest of this week. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london in half an hour. plenty more on our website, facebook and instgram until then at the usual address. now, though, it's back to louise and jon. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and louise minchin. coming up on breakfast

this morning... we've got paralympians galore for you this morning. golden couple neil and lora fachie willjoin us following their cycling success and we'll speak to two of wheelchair rugby�*s historic gold winning team. but if all of that sporting talent isn't enough, we'll be joined by 0lympic swimmer adam peaty, as he turns his attention to next year's commonwealth games, and of course we'll find out how his preparations for strictly are coming along. and does bacon solve everything? it's one of the questions food criticjay rayner asks in his new book. we'll try and get the answer when he joins just after nine. we're talking a lot this morning about plans to increase national insurance contributions to pay for health and social care. mps will vote later on the proposals today, but how would the changes affect us all? nina is here to explain.

for as long as i can remember, probably for as long as you can remember, this big question on how to fund health and social care with an ageing population has weighed over every government. make no mistake this is a really big moment. yesterday borisjohnson announced what he called the biggest catch—up programme in the history of the nhs. £36 billion, raised over three years, to deal with the backlog caused by covid—19. more than £5 billion of that will go towards changes to social care in england. scotland, wales and northern ireland will also receive an additional £2.2 billion to spend on their services. the money will also be used to overhaul how much families pay towards social care. but where is that money coming from? you know by now about the uk—wide1.25% increase in national insurance contributions.

which will become a new health and social care levy on your payslip and tax returns. this makes it the largest tax rise in more than 40 years. let's look at what it means for us. someone on £20,000 a year will pay an extra £130 annually. someone earning £50,000 will pay an extra £505. and what's also new here is that people over the state pension age who are working will also have to pay the new levy. the government says that's only fair. but does it go far enough? 0thers argue it's still the young footing a disproportionate amount of the bill. because of the way insurance is levied, and the fact that it's levied on earnings but not on pension income, it means that those people of working age — and particularly younger people who'll be working for longer — will pay more additional tax over their lifetime than older people. in fact, pensioners who are only getting pension income and no earnings won't be paying any additional tax as a result of these announcements. remember it's notjust

individuals who pay national insurance — employers do too. the british chamber of commerce, which represents 100,000 businesses said the tax will be, "a drag anchor on jobs growth at an absolutely crucial time". will it be worth it, though? what will be the impact on the elderly, and the wider cost of care? good news for some families. at the moment if people have assets worth more than £20,000 they have to pay for social care — and there is no upper limit on how much. that's about to change. so i think there are two parts of the social care announcement that are going to really matter for families. one is that those families with assets that are between £20,000 and £100,000 will now get some support. sojust overall, more families will be getting some support for their social care costs. the second element is a cap, that means that no—one will have to pay more than £86,000 in total over their lives for their social care. and that'll be really important for those families who are hit with very, very high social care costs. don't forget, though, that is literally for personal care

— things like help bathing and taking medicine. the cap doesn't cover the huge expenses of accommodation, food and energy. and then there's changes to the so—called pension triple lock — a promise to link state pension increases to to earnings, inflation, or 2.5% — whichever is the highest. pay rises have been distorted by the pandemic and leaped up to an estimted 8% and so that element is being excluded for a year. so the state pension is likely to rise at a more modest level. we also heard yesterday that the budget and the three—year whitehall spending review will be on 27th october. so more announcements expected affecting our household finances. the prime minister said yesterday these are exceptional times, calling for exceptional measures. his core supporters will say there is only so much in terms of tax rises they can stomach. labourwill say much in terms of tax rises they can stomach. labour will say the higher

earners can afford to pay more and they need to take it because they have the broadest shoulders at the moment. 50 have the broadest shoulders at the moment. . ., ,. ,, ., ~ moment. so much to discuss, thank ou for moment. so much to discuss, thank you for taking _ moment. so much to discuss, thank you for taking us — moment. so much to discuss, thank you for taking us through _ moment. so much to discuss, thank you for taking us through all- moment. so much to discuss, thank you for taking us through all of- you for taking us through all of that. lets stay with it, though. everyone who is eligible in the uk will be hit by the rise to national insurance contributions, to pay for reforms to the care sector and nhs funding in england. this but for people in scotland, wales and northern ireland, their governments will decide how and where the extra money is spent. here's what the prime minister had to say in the house of commons yesterday. while scotland, wales and northern ireland have their own system, we will direct money raised through the levy to their health and social care services. so in total, scotland... yes — in total, scotland, wales and northern ireland will benefit from an extra £2.2 billion a year, mr speaker... and as this... as this is about 15% more than they will contribute through the levy, it will create a union dividend worth £300 million, mr speaker.

let's speak now to the deputy westminster leaderfor the snp — kirsten oswald. good morning, thank you forjoining us. i am sure you, like many people, looked at this really carefully. do you welcome what the prime minister saysis you welcome what the prime minister says is a dividend for scotland? know, the prime minister is not correct about this. i think whichever way you look at this it is a regressive tax on people who are least able to afford it. it hits people at the same time as many people at the same time as many people already will be facing a real cut in their income because of the more than £1000 of universal credit which the uk government is whisking away from them and whichever angle you come at this from it is not thought out, not thought through and there is a significant lack of detail. as, unfortunately, ever, the prime minister has demonstrated a lack of understanding of what actually happens in scotland and how

things are based and dealt with in scotland which is a matter for the scottish cup and.— scottish cup and. when you vote a . ainst it scottish cup and. when you vote against it in _ scottish cup and. when you vote against it in parliament? - scottish cup and. when you vote against it in parliament? yes, i scottish cup and. when you vote | against it in parliament? yes, we will. this against it in parliament? yes, we will- this is _ against it in parliament? yes, we will. this is a — against it in parliament? yes, we will. this is a real— against it in parliament? yes, we will. this is a real challenge - against it in parliament? yes, we will. this is a real challenge for i will. this is a real challenge for people if this goes through. the people if this goes through. the people whose pockets will be hardest hit by this really cannot afford this to happen to them. the prime minister is talking about this as if it is one thing which is an all or nothing situation, something which has suddenly become very pressing. this is an issue that has been a concern for the westminster government because of the problems in relation to social care in england for some considerable time. there has been a number of opportunities for him to look at this and deal with it. but this is certainly not the solution, and we would be very, very much in favour of people not having to pay all of this additional money which they simply cannot afford. if this additional money which they simply cannot afford.— this additional money which they simply cannot afford. if you do vote auainst it, simply cannot afford. if you do vote against it, which _ simply cannot afford. if you do vote against it, which you _ simply cannot afford. if you do vote against it, which you have - simply cannot afford. if you do vote

against it, which you have said - simply cannot afford. if you do vote against it, which you have said you| against it, which you have said you welcome you are potentially denying extra funding which would go to the nhs and to social care. no, that is not the case. if we look at this and what other — not the case. if we look at this —.ic what other potential not the case. if we look at this —."ic what other potential solutions to the issues, nobody would sensibly suggest that it is not good to have additional funds suggest that it is not good to have additionalfunds in relation to nhs and social care. in scotland, the scottish committee is putting significant additionalfunds into significant additional funds into both significant additionalfunds into both of these and anyone would welcome additional funding for public services. but the way that is funded is absolutely critical, and to fund that on the backs of the people who can least afford it is absolutely regressive, it's the wrong thing to do and i think it really stacks up in a poor light when you look at the platform the scottish government has set out, progressive way they have looked at health and social care, as well as the social issues, is against this westminster government who are determined to make those who can least afford it pay. that is not a

sensible way to proceed, it is not sustainable and i think many people in scotland and across the uk will be looking at this with a considerable degree of alarm. nobody is an uinu considerable degree of alarm. nobody is arguing with — considerable degree of alarm. nobody is arguing with the _ considerable degree of alarm. nobody is arguing with the size _ considerable degree of alarm. nobody is arguing with the size and _ considerable degree of alarm. nobody is arguing with the size and scale - is arguing with the size and scale of the problem, so how would you pay for it? ., ., , ., ' for it? there are lots of different wa s of for it? there are lots of different ways of raising — for it? there are lots of different ways of raising funds, _ for it? there are lots of different ways of raising funds, which - for it? there are lots of different ways of raising funds, which the | ways of raising funds, which the prime minister and the uk government will be very well aware of. but they have chosen to deal with it this way. this is what they want to do, make people who are least able to afford its... i make people who are least able to afford its- - -— afford its... i know they have set out what they're _ afford its... i know they have set out what they're going _ afford its... i know they have set out what they're going to - afford its... i know they have set out what they're going to do. - afford its... i know they have set| out what they're going to do. how would you pay for it there are lots of different ways, as i said, three different forms of taxation. he could different forms of taxation. he: could have chosen to do that through social caning group specifically. that is worth reflecting on. it is an issue we have all known is there, the uk has known it is there, there have been considerable amounts of effort going into different research into this. he is choosing to make

the leap from where people are now and the challenging situation to where he says he is going to get to, which is very unclear... i am talkin: which is very unclear... i am talking to — which is very unclear... i am talking to you _ which is very unclear... i am talking to you right - which is very unclear... i am talking to you right now, - which is very unclear... i am talking to you right now, wondering what you would do as the snp. how would you be funding this? well. what you would do as the snp. how would you be funding this?- would you be funding this? well, of course in scotland _ would you be funding this? well, of course in scotland the _ would you be funding this? well, of course in scotland the issue - would you be funding this? well, ofj course in scotland the issue doesn't exist in this way. in scotland we already have free personal care. there are lots of different ways we would be very supportive of looking at how we fund increases to public services. that is something that is absolutely the case but this is a regressive tax, not something which is fair. it isn't a sensible way to place that burden onto the young, to people who have a more relative income and i think the prime minister will find notjust ourselves, but many people across scotland and the uk, will look upon this very unfavourably.— this very unfavourably. kirsten oswald from _ this very unfavourably. kirsten oswald from the _ this very unfavourably. kirsten oswald from the snp, - this very unfavourably. kirsten oswald from the snp, deputy| 0swald from the snp, deputy westminster leader, thank you for your time this morning. thank you.

there are some numbers that are uncontroversial in scotland this morning doc at 1—0! that is one number. 23 years is another. that morning doc at 1-0! that is one number. 23 years is another. that is the last time — number. 23 years is another. that is the last time scotland _ number. 23 years is another. that is the last time scotland qualified - number. 23 years is another. that is the last time scotland qualified for l the last time scotland qualified for the last time scotland qualified for the world cup, 1988. they are now within touching distance and you can't half tell the fans are excited. the sfa website crashed last night with tickets for the game. a 1—0 victory over austria in vienna put in charge of their own destiny in group f. this challenge on che adams was looked at by var and when it was given lyndon dykes stepped up to score a crucial penalty. it was the only goal of the game — and it takes steve clarke's side up to second in their qualifying group, with their closes rivals israel due at hampden park next month. i love this group of players. i love what they do for their country. i love the way they play for their country. i love their hunger and their desire to get to tournaments. they know they had to come here and get a positive result.

they dug in, they showed their qualities at the right times, they showed their battle and strength at the right time. and, as i've said before, we're a good team, we're a good group, we want to get better. we know we can get better. meanwhile, the republic of ireland finally caught a break — coming from a goal down to draw 1—1 with serbia. an own goal rescuing a point for stephen kenny's side, who are now nine points adrift of a play—off place. northern ireland play tonight — as do england and wales. england are in warsaw as they look to secure their place in qatar next winter. they've already comfortably beaten poland in this qualifying campaign at wembley in march. and gareth southgate's side know another win tonight puts them in a commanding position at the top of their group. as a team, we have to recognise that we're in a good moment and, um, the team are playing well, but also those moments can be dangerous because if we get any sense of complacency, then we're going into a game where we'll be really challenged.

and this is a big opportunity for us — we can really take a positive step towards the world cup if we win in warsaw. wales are also back in action after their last—minute winner against belarus kept them in the hunt for an automatic place at the finals. they take on estonia at home in cardiff — and a win could take them up to second in their group. meanwhile, it's a huge night in belfast as northern ireland face switzerland — a win at windsor park would see them move above their opponents into second place. it's notjust about the football this evening. this woman is back in action — emma raducanu in her quarter final at the us open. the 18—year—old faces the tokyo olympic champion from this summer, belinda bencic. now, raducanu still hasn't lost a set in what has been an incredible run to the last eight. the last brit to win the women's title was virginia wade, back in 1968. i think there's so many things

that i'm impressed by. first of all, it's very exciting. she's very exuberant, she's a lovely person. so if you're good, you're good, and it's just whether or not you can handle everything that goes with it, to be absolutely honest. her personality on the court is a pleasure to watch, so it will do infinite things for british tennis, and i think she's going to be able to handle it, but there's an awful lot that she will have to handle. and, remarkably, if raducanu wins she'll play another teenager in the semi finals. leylah fernandez is from canada and only turned 19 on monday, but she stunned the fifth seed elina svitolina to win a deciding—set tie break and go into the last four. some exciting news for british f1 fans, with george russell partnering lewis hamilton at mercedes next season. russell has spent three years at williams and has really impressed this season, including a second—placed finish at the belgian grand prix. russell said it was a "special day"

and thanked "everyone who has supported me in getting me to where i am today". and we know manchester united fans are all counting down to saturday and their first potential sighting of cristiano ronaldo back in a red shirt. yesterday he was pictured training with his new team mates for the first time. ronaldo was released early from international duty with portugal because he was suspended, which means he might be in contention to start against newcastle. we'll have to wait and see. ican i canjust i can just say, i canjust say, the i can just say, the excitement around manchester united fans is not just confined to the fans. i was speaking to one of the employees at manchester united yesterday and said people must be really excited about cristiano ronaldo coming back. she

said," it's so great to have ronnie back. max hess the weather this morning. the sun is shining on you —— has the weather. the sun is shining on you -- has the weather. , . ., , ., the sun is shining on you -- has the weather. , .., , ., , weather. the sun continues to shine but thin . s weather. the sun continues to shine but things are _ weather. the sun continues to shine but things are set _ weather. the sun continues to shine but things are set to _ weather. the sun continues to shine but things are set to change. - but things are set to change. exhorting colour to the end of the week. temperatures at the moment in exeter at 21 degrees. 70 fahrenheit. particularly warm and humid morning but across parts of south—west england, wales, the temperature will not rise as much today because of cloud bring cooler conditions. the forecast is a case of another hot day for many with plenty of sunshine around, particularly across some parts of scotland and england. where there is a few mist and fog patches around at the moment, you can see the thickest of the cloud just

approaching to the south—west. it is this which could produce some severe thunderstorms later in the day. already clouding place across the channel islands, south—west england and wales and spreading into northern ireland, not as much sunshine as we saw yesterday. showers and thunderstorms get going later, hit and miss, some places avoid them altogether. away from that and the cloudy northern scotland, a good part of scotland, north—east wales, which england will be dry and sunny, the sun shined a bit hazy in places. but in the sunshine and riches will be up to around 27 degrees in parts of western scotland today, 30 degrees towards the south—east of england. 0nly around the low 20s compared with yesterday across parts of south—west england and wales. this evening and overnight the showers very sporadic, they will push northwards across the country. where they are could be quite torrential but may places stay dry overnight and tonight will be a particularly humid night. even though we have the cloud spreading it, temperatures will not push away quite as quickly so temperatures will be in the mid

teens as we start tomorrow. humid tomorrow, difference today, a lot more cloud. sadly for scotland, northern ireland, another would, showers and thunderstorms today. across wales, western england, showers developing through to the afternoon. some avoid the storms altogether but temperatures down, highest across some parts of eastern england around 25 degrees. quite humid. another humid night to come into friday, but we will see plenty of cloud around, some showers. as we go through into friday, showers will develop more widely through the day, you can see the blue colour is blossoming on the chart. some will be severe in places, torrential, could cause minor flooding be severe in places, torrential, could cause minorflooding and it will start to feel cooler, temperatures high teens, low 20s, closer to where we should be for this stage in the year. through the weekend, things will turn cooler, still. ., ~ weekend, things will turn cooler, still. . ~ , ., , weekend, things will turn cooler, still. . ~ , . a lot of excitement in the studio

this morning because we are joined ijy this morning because we are joined by our latest sports stars. it's a sport that had its funding taken awayjust five years ago but great britain defied all the odds when they claimed a historic first paralympic medal in wheelchair rugby in tokyo. the team led from start to finish, beating the united states by 54 tries to 49. let's take a look back. music.

a london council is sitting on a pot of more than £8.5 million of overpaid council tax. a freedom of information request found it relates to almost 67,000 accounts at lewisham council. those affected could be able to claim back an average of £130. the council said it can be difficult to trace people who pay in advance if they move out of the borough, but there's no time limit on claiming money back. detectives have charged a further man with the murder of a 22—year—old in south west london. kai davis died after being stabbed near a nightcub on clarence street, in kingston on saturday the 21st of august. 18—year—old conrad adams is now the third man to be charged with his murder. a man, who was told he had just a couple of years to live and lost the ability to walk and talk, is on a mission to raise £50,000 for charity. phil rossall from 0rpington was diagnosed with motor neurone disease in 2016. since then he's done marathons in his wheelchair and most recently taken up a blinking challenge

it's best not to dwell on what you have lost, but rather to concentrate on what you can still do. i was getting too weak to be able to take part in racing or other more physically demanding challenges, so blinking seemed to be the obvious thing for me to be able to keep doing something positive to help others who raise funds for the mnd association. let's take a look at the travel situation this morning. the tubes aren't too bad. central line is part suspended though between leytonstone and hainault — that'd because of a power failure. minor delays on rest of the line. for all the other travel news, to find out what's happening on the roads, you can tune into your local bbc radio station for regular updates throughout the morning. on to the weather now with elizabth rizzini. hello, good morning. the last slice of summery september sunshine continues across the capital again today. here are some of our weather watcher pictures from yesterday — glorious blue skies in vauxhall and again in kew is

captured by surbiton sue. and we are likely to see the same sort of scenes again today. little bit of mist around to start the day, but it's not a widespread problem. certainly very mild out there, too, and temperatures will rise nicely in all of that sunshine. we're likely to see the high 20s again quite widely — 30 degrees celsius always possible toward central and western areas. perhaps a little bit of high cloud just coming and going at times, and that will turn the sunshine a bit hazier. you can start to see our approaching weather front from the west as we head towards the end of the day — that's going to sweep its way eastwards overnight. so it will turn cloudier, it'll still be mild, rather humid—feeling, and there'll also be some showers at times. and we're looking at heavy, thundery downpours potentially on and off through the day tomorrow. but it's still warm for this time of year with temperatures peaking this time in the low 20s in celsius. it's a bit windier still on friday, there'll also be some showers around, generally cooler and unsettled for the rest of this week. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london in half an hour.

plenty more on our website, facebook and instgram until then at the usual address. now though it's back tojon and louise. bye for now. good morning. welcome to breakfast withjon kay and louise minchin. our headlines today... a tax rise to fix social care.

today. in the channel islands, south—west and wales little temperatures get above 30 degrees yesterday. it is not going to be quite as hot. join me for the full forecast here on breakfast. it's wednesday, 8th september. our top story. mps will vote today on the government's plans to increase national insurance contributions — to fund health and social care in england. ministers say it will raise £12 billion a year, which will be used to tackle the nhs backlog caused by the pandemic and boost social care funding. but, it means next year will see the highest tax increase for four decades, and breaks two conservative manifesto promises. our political correspondent, helen catt reports. the covid pandemic has left the nhs with some big waiting lists to clear. funding social care has been a problem for years. the government's answer to both is to raise national insurance — against its promises.

we cannot now shirk the challenge of putting the nhs back on its feet, which requires fixing the problem of social care and investing the money needed. so we will do what is right, reasonable and fair. the rate of national insurance will go up for everyone from april next year by 1.25 percentage points. from 2023 it will show up on payslips as a separate charge — the health and social care levy. the government says it will raise £12 billion a year. this package of reforms, we believe, is unjust, it's half—baked, and it breaks very solemn conservative election pledges. so i think the first thing to do is point that out. only 15% of what is going to be raised in the next three years will go towards social care. and, actually, that's not nearly enough. that's because, to start with, most of the money will go

towards clearing the backlog in the nhs, before social care gets a bigger share. i'm on message. from october 2023, nobody in england will have to pay more than £86,000 over their lifetime for care. but there are worries in the sector. the problem here is that people who aren't paying for their own care because they haven't got any money, or because its run out — they are dependent on the state to pick up the tab, and the amounts of money councils have to fulfil that responsibility hasn't kept pace with the growing demand — both from older people, but from disabled people of working age, as well. so those holes in their budget have continued to grow over the last ten years or so, and nothing that was announced really starts to fill those back up again. working people across the uk will pay the charge. the care plan is for england, but northern ireland, wales and scotland will get more money to decide how to spend. borisjohnson hasn't ruled out putting up more taxes in future. it's expected mps will vote for this rise later,

but there are still lots of questions about how it will all work. helen catt, bbc news, westminster. let's speak now to our chief political correspondent, adam fleming. we are going to be discussing this throughout the programme we are going to be discussing this throughout the programme over we are going to be discussing this throughout the programme over the next few months and weeks. tell us your analysis, what is key right at the moment? the your analysis, what is key right at the moment?— your analysis, what is key right at the moment? ., , , the moment? the boat today is very likel to to the moment? the boat today is very likely to go through _ the moment? the boat today is very likely to go through because - the moment? the boat today is very likely to go through because there i likely to go through because there are not enough conservative mps angry enough about the proposals to try to stop them. but there will be loads of other votes over the next few months, few years. the tension will still be there. will this actually work? first of all this money will go to the nhs to help the health service deal with the backlog caused by covid. it is actually going to work better in a few years

time, the money is meant to switch from paying for the nhs to paying for adult social care. well that which actually happen or will the nhs still had to keep using up that money? —— will that switch. then you have local authorities local councils delivering and paying for the care on a daily basis. they have resources to do all of theirs. will they get their money? ultimately, will people who need to care either for themselves or for a family memberfeel it is for themselves or for a family member feel it is of good quality and they can afford it? does it work for people who need medicare? we will only find that the answer to those questions over the next few years because this is such a huge of changes that will take some time to introduce. ., ~' , ., , changes that will take some time to introduce. ., ~ , ., , . we'll be speaking to the health secretary, sajid javid, around 7.30 this morning. the home secretary, priti patel, is meeting her french

counterpart today to discuss migrant crossings. according to the home office, 785 migrants arrived on monday alone, after crossing the channel in small boats. simonjones is in dover. another beautiful morning. i guess thatis another beautiful morning. i guess that is part of the issue. when it is still and calm. more migrants attend thatjourney. is still and calm. more migrants attend that journey. attend that 'ourney. absolutely. we are alread attend that journey. absolutely. we are already getting _ attend that journey. absolutely. we are already getting reports - attend that journey. absolutely. we are already getting reports this i are already getting reports this morning moore attempted crossings in the channel. it was very busy yesterday. the home office has not released figures but around 400, 500 people succeeded in reaching the uk. on monday 800 people on 27 votes. that gives an idea of a being used by people smugglers. they are trying to overwhelm the authorities and are

succeeding in doing that. there will be lots for the home secretary to talk about today. they will meet in london as part of the g7 interior ministers conference. what will be interesting is the tone adopted by priti patel. was she going to the meeting all guns blazing? saying to the french meme are not doing enough to prevent the crossings. if you do not do more, we will withhold the £50 million to the number of patrols on french beaches, or will she adopt a more conciliatory tone? as much as the government likes to talk about taking back control of the borders, this is an international issue. looking back, it is interesting, when one of the first agreement was reached with france two and a half years ago, the number of crossings per day stood at 40 people maximum. now we are talking 20 times that

number on the busiest days. the trial of those accused of being involved in the november 2015 paris attacks begins today. remember those attacks. 130 people died and hundreds were injured after a series of attacks on bars and restaurants as well as france's national football stadium and the bataclan concert hall. our correspondent hugh schofield is in paris for us this morning. this was a series of events which really shook the nation, didn't it? morning. really shook the nation, didn't it? mornint. a, , ., morning. morning. they left a scar. it is the morning. morning. they left a scar. it is the trial— morning. morning. they left a scar. it is the trial arising _ morning. morning. they left a scar. it is the trial arising from _ morning. morning. they left a scar. it is the trial arising from then i it is the trial arising from then notorious night in 2015. we are outside the historic court, the justice centre, which has been delivering justice since medieval times. this will be a monumental trial lasting eight, nine months. it

was still continue during the next presidential elections. about the events of that night. that is when a group of ten men divided into three groups carried out three separate attacks. gunmen shooting randomly in the cafe is an terraces across the river and famously the bataclan, where three gunmen burst in and created carnage over the course of two, three hours before being killed. interestingly, and unusually for these trials, among those accused are notjust the logistics people, that backroom people, one of the people who was there on that night. the main person accused in this trial, he is there and it is hoped he will be able to deliver

some kind of memory of what happened. some kind of memory of what happened-— britney spears's father has filed papers in a los angeles court to end his control over her estate. the arrangement was put in place in 2008 after the singer suffered mental health issues. she's been to court twice — to try to end the arrangement claiming her father's treatment of her was abuse. now it's time for the weather with matt. are you doing today? very well, thank you. enjoying sunshine on the roof of broadcasting house. a hot day yesterday for many. temperatures got to just shy of 31 degrees. there will be change across the channel islands, parts of south—west england. more in a way of cloud and thunderstorms later. on thursday there will be cooler and fresher air. pretty warm for a september

morning in many areas. if you missed and fog patches around. in the english channel, the south—west england, a few showers around at the moment but we could see severe thunderstorms causing flooding later. for much of scotland and england plenty of sunshine. here temperatures 27 degrees. in glasgow, 29, 30 across london. still hot and sultry. temperatures not dropping much. showers pushing away north and east. sporadically. we could get a disturbed night. temperatures in the high teens tomorrow morning. a muddy field tomorrow. a lot more cloud around and showers in parts of scotland, northern ireland and for some in northern england. we will

see more severe thunderstorms developed. dryer in the sunshine tomorrow. still muggy and humid but temperatures will be down on today, 25 in the east, high teens in the west and we will see cooler and fresher conditions developing on friday and into the weekend. thank you. after weeks of evacuations, thousands of afghan refugees are now adjusting to their new lives in the uk, but the question still remains of what will happen to those left behind. joya, whose name we have changed, was an afghan special forces commander who worked alongside british forces, and managed to get out of kabul a few weeks ago. jonathan beale went to meet him. afghan special forces have been fighting the taliban for years and taking heavy casualties. joya was one of their commanders, hand—picked and trained by elite troops from the parachute regiment. he was still fighting long

after the british left helmand. this isjoya firing on taliban positions just one month ago. he said they were still fighting until they ran out of ammunition. till the end we will fight, till we can we fight. without any support, without ammunition, without any supplies, how can we fight? with empty hands, you no can fight. by then the taliban had taken control of kabul and crowds had gathered outside the airport. the taliban were already tracking joya down. so were his old friends from the parachute regiment in a race against time. they found my phone number and called me and said, "where are you?" i said, "i am in kabul." they said, "you are safe?" i said, "no, i change my location every night." two weeks ago, joya was living

in fear for his life. today he is tasting freedom. now safe in london with his wife and two young children. rescued at the dead of night by british soldiers who never forgot. they said, tomorrow night you come in at midnight, at one o'clock, in a bar in a hotel, we come in and pick up you. at midnight, one o'clock, i arrived. they came out and called my name, come to the airport. put us on the plane and came away to here. danjarvis... later today, i'll be reunited with an afghan special forces commander that i had the privilege of serving alongside. he is deeply concerned about the hundreds of his men who were left behind. it's an incredibly moving moment me.

i didn't know whether he would make it out of afghanistan alive or not. it's so good to see you. 14 years after they first met in helmand, there is genuine relief at being reunited. but also real worries about what will happen to those left behind. these are people who are uniquely at risk because of the nature of the service they provided. they are top of the taliban list for being executed is the reality of it, so i am deeply fearful for their future. there is a real urgency and the british government needs to move at pace to do everything they possibly can to get those people out. the band of brothers from the parachute regiment are now raising funds to help those likejoya, who managed to get out. he is now making plans for his family's new life in britain. he still hopes more of his men will follow but the question is how? jonathan beale, bbc news. well, someone who knowsjoya well

is martin hewitt, a retired officer with the parachute regiment, who did two tours of afghanistan, in 2006 and 2007. morning. thank you forjoining us. you actually knowjoya yourself. what is it like seeing him safe and in the uk? tbs, what is it like seeing him safe and in the uk? �* ~ , , what is it like seeing him safe and inthe uk? �* . ,, ., in the uk? a huge relief. we spent a lot of time with _ in the uk? a huge relief. we spent a lot of time with joya _ in the uk? a huge relief. we spent a lot of time with joya and _ in the uk? a huge relief. we spent a lot of time with joya and the - lot of time withjoya and the special forces unit. the lot of time with joya and the special forces unit. the sense you tet from special forces unit. the sense you get from watching _ special forces unit. the sense you get from watching that _ special forces unit. the sense you get from watching that he - special forces unit. the sense you get from watching that he is i special forces unit. the sense you get from watching that he is one i special forces unit. the sense you | get from watching that he is one of the 1's who has managed to get out. what about life for people who are still left behind? brute what about life for people who are still left behind?— still left behind? we are trying to facilitate extraction _ still left behind? we are trying to facilitate extraction of _ still left behind? we are trying to facilitate extraction of others, i still left behind? we are trying to | facilitate extraction of others, the vast majority are qualified. we need an assurance from the government that they will be processed to give

about a huge announcement, about the decision to put up national insurance and paper changes in the nhs and social care. the majority of the £36 billion raised in taxes over the next three years, will go to the nhs over the next three years. around £5 billion of that will be spent on social care, but many in the sector argue it's simply not enough. we can speak now to simon bottery, from the king's fund — an independent charity working to improve health and care in england. morning to you. thank you for joining us. let's talk initially about your reaction that this large amount of money will be raised. do you welcome it?— you welcome it? yes, we think this is a really good _ you welcome it? yes, we think this is a really good step _ you welcome it? yes, we think this is a really good step forward - you welcome it? yes, we think this is a really good step forward for. is a really good step forward for aduu is a really good step forward for adult social care and some of the measures are very positive. however, we are worried that it is a step forward, it is not the giant stride that the prime minister sort of implied when he talked about fixing aduu implied when he talked about fixing adult social care once and for all. we are worried about the amount of money that will come to social care

will come late and there may not be enough to bring about the major changes the sector needs. what changes the sector needs. what chan . es changes the sector needs. what changes do _ changes the sector needs. what changes do you _ changes the sector needs. what changes do you think— changes the sector needs. what changes do you think would make most difference? ., ,., changes do you think would make most difference? ., . . ., difference? there are some crucial roblems difference? there are some crucial problems at _ difference? there are some crucial problems at the _ difference? there are some crucial problems at the moment. - difference? there are some crucial problems at the moment. you - difference? there are some crucial| problems at the moment. you have been hearing on your programme already about the backlog of people coming forward, looking for care and struggling to even be assessed. some severe problems in the system at the moment, simply to see people and assess them. then major problems with the work force. chronic levels of vacancies in the sector which are likely to get worse in the short term, unfortunately. some major issues which although there are some welcome measures here, they do not really deal with those crucial immediate problems and that is a real concern for us.— real concern for us. let's talk about staffing. _ real concern for us. let's talk about staffing. as _ real concern for us. let's talk about staffing. as you - real concern for us. let's talk about staffing. as you say, i real concern for us. let's talk - about staffing. as you say, there are issues surrounding that. how can those be solved?— those be solved? fundamentally we need to net those be solved? fundamentally we need to get more _

figure is very high-— figure is very high. what it does not include _ figure is very high. what it does not include other _ figure is very high. what it does not include other things - figure is very high. what it does not include other things like - not include other things like accommodation, food and heating which could be very huge bills. it which could be very huge bills. it could be that the devil is in the detail on this and we have not seen the detail of how much people might expect to be charged for those sorts of costs. as i said, £86,000 is already a lot of money, more money than most people have in savings and a significant chunk of people's housing value. we would have liked to have seen a leather cat level, and more generous system overall. at least we do have something which looks like it is progressing and it is crucial we get this over the line. these are quite similar to proposals that were originally proposed in 2007, which were legislated for in 2014, due to coming into thousand and 16 but the government lost its nerve. let's hope the government delivers on its

of overpaid council tax. a freedom of information request found it relates to almost 67,000 accounts at lewisham council. those affected could be able to claim back an average of £130. the council said it can be difficult to trace people who pay in advance if they move out of the borough, but there's no time limit on claiming money back. detectives have charged a further man with the murder of a 22—year—old in south west london. kai davis died after being stabbed near a nightclub on clarence street in kingston on the 21st of august. 18—year—old conrad adams is now the third man to be charged with his murder. a man who was told he had just a couple of years to live and lost the ability to walk and talk is on a mission to raise £50,000 for charity. phil rossall from 0rpington was diagnosed with motor neurone disease in 2016. since then he's done marathons in his wheelchair, and most recently taken up a blinking challenge. it's best not to dwell

on what you have lost, but rather to concentrate on what you can still do. i was getting too weak to be able to take part in racing or other more physically demanding challenges, so blinking seemed to be the obvious thing for me to be able to keep doing something positive to help others who raise funds for the mnd association. a two—week skateboarding showcase is coming to central london from today as part of the inside out festival. a pop—up skate park is being placed on the strand, just outside somerset house. there will be free coaching and demos from professionals. let's take a look at the travel situation this morning. the tubes aren't too bad, but the central line is part suspended between leytonstone and hainault — that's because of a power failure. for all the other travel news, tune into your local bbc radio station. onto the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. the last slice of summery september sunshine continues across the capital again today. here are some of our weather watcher

pictures from yesterday — glorious blue skies in vauxhall and again in kew is captured by surbiton sue. and we are likely to see the same sort of scenes again today. little bit of mist around to start the day, but it's not a widespread problem. certainly very mild out there, too, and temperatures will rise nicely in all of that sunshine. we're likely to see the high 20s again quite widely — 30 degrees celsius always possible toward central and western areas. perhaps a little bit of high cloud just coming and going at times, and that will turn the sunshine a bit hazier. you can start to see our approaching weather front from the west as we head towards the end of the day — that's going to sweep its way eastwards overnight. so it will turn cloudier, it'll still be mild, rather humid—feeling, and there'll also be some showers at times. and we're looking at heavy, thundery downpours potentially on and off through the day tomorrow. but it's still warm for this time of year with temperatures peaking this time in the low 20s in celsius. it's a bit windier still on friday, there'll also be some showers around, generally cooler and unsettled for the rest of this week.

i'm back with the latest from the bbc london in an hour. now, though, it's back tojon and louise. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and louise minchin. mps will vote today on the government's plans to increase national insurance contributions — to fund health and social care in england. ministers say it will raise £12 billion a year, which will be used to tackle the nhs backlog caused by the pandemic and boost social care funding. but it means next year will see the highest tax increase for four decades, and breaks a manifesto promise. the home secretary, priti patel, is meeting her french counterpart today to discuss the huge increase in migrant crossings. the home office say that 785 migrants made the journey on monday alone.

ms patel has warned that britain could withhold £54 million it's promised to pay the french to help deal with the problem, unless more boats are intercepted. the trial of those accused of being involved in the november 2015 paris attacks begins today. 130 people died and hundreds were injured after a series of attacks on bars and restaurants in the french capital, as well as france's national football stadium and the bataclan concert hall. among the defendants is salah abdeslam, believed to be the only suspected attacker to survive. the united states has criticised the make—up of afghanistan's new interim government, which includes figures accused of mass killings. a state department spokesman in washington expressed concern that it only includes taliban members and close associates. no women or anyone from a religious minority have been named so far.

back to our top story now. mps will vote later today whether to raise national insurance contributions to fund health and social care. let's speak now to the health secretary, sajid javid. thank you very much indeed for joining us. thank you very much indeed for joining us— thank you very much indeed for joining us-_ he i joining us. good morning. he promised. — joining us. good morning. he promised. you _ joining us. good morning. he promised, you guarantee - joining us. good morning. he i promised, you guarantee there joining us. good morning. he - promised, you guarantee there would be no new tax rises. when people look at their papers this morning and listen to the radio and tv, how can they ever believe your premises again? i can they ever believe your premises auain? ~' , ., , can they ever believe your premises auain? ~' , ., again? i think when people look at their papers _ again? i think when people look at their papers this _ again? i think when people look at their papers this morning - again? i think when people look at their papers this morning and - again? i think when people look at| their papers this morning and their tvs one thing they are realising is that these are the acts of a responsible and serious comment. as health and care secretary i can certainly point to the huge challenges. i think fair to say the biggest challenges in our lifetimes that the nhs and social care have faced. as a government you can

either stand back and leave it as business as usual or you can address it and help tackle these challenges and if i may give you one example from the nhs... we have all seen the waiting list has already gone up because of the global pandemic stop i came into this, i was told that if things carry on as a local business usual, we would be looking at the waiting list for about 13,000,003 years. my choice is i can say we made a promise in the manifesto which we don't want to break, and doggedly stick to it and let the waiting list of 30 million. we can comfort the problem, be honest with the british people, take the difficult decision and say we have broken a promise —— a waiting list of 13 million. we will tackle the waiting list because we have also promised to you that the nhs will always be there for you, world class service, free at the point of use, therefore everyone and i think we have taken the right decisions. you sa it is have taken the right decisions. you say it is because _

have taken the right decisions. you say it is because of the pandemic, but before the pandemic boris johnson told us all he had a plan ready to go for social care and also told us he wouldn't have to put up taxes so that can't have been the case. taxes so that can't have been the case. ,, ., . ., taxes so that can't have been the case, ., .., taxes so that can't have been the case. ., .,, , taxes so that can't have been the case. ., , _ case. social care has been hit by the pandemic. — case. social care has been hit by the pandemic, as _ case. social care has been hit by the pandemic, as well. - case. social care has been hit by the pandemic, as well. i- case. social care has been hit by the pandemic, as well. i think. the pandemic, as well. i think everyone can see the challenges are far greater today than they were before the pandemic. also we can see there has been a huge impact on the economy through the pandemic. last year we saw our output fall by a tenth as every country in the world so cut in economic output. that has meant that if we are going to keep our promise on adult social care, which i think is hugely important to make sure that we remove this risk of catastrophic costs for care by introducing this lifetime cap, if we're going keep that then we also have to find a new way of funding for that which is why having this health and social care levy and doing this together, especially when health and social care levy so

integrated and the links between, having it as one of the levies that can raise this billion pounds per year, —— £12 billion a can raise this billion pounds per year, -- £12 billion a year, can raise this billion pounds per year, —— £12 billion a year, to deal with the new adult social care system, put much more sustainable footing, it is the right approach. not long ago you were chancellor and you talked about wanting lower taxes and a simplified tax system. now we have much higher taxes and are far more complex tax system that a lot of people still don't understand this levy and what kicks in. instinctively you cannot be happy with this, particularly the fact that so many people i say it is unfair that younger people, poorer people, will be hit particularly hard to stop as a conservative, i want to say taxes as low as they possibly can be and want to say taxes as low as they possibly can be— possibly can be and that hasn't chanced. possibly can be and that hasn't changed. even _ possibly can be and that hasn't changed. even after _ possibly can be and that hasn't

changed. even after this - possibly can be and that hasn't changed. even after this levy l possibly can be and that hasn't l changed. even after this levy our taxes as a proportion of our economy will be around 35.5% of our economy, which is still lower than germany and france and italy, for example. but i except of course this is a tax rise and when any government raises taxes you have to have a really, really good reason to do that. i think we have set out that reason because also as a conservative i believe in the nhs, i wanted to be there, free at the point of use, paid out of general taxation for all of us and i can see very clearly the stresses it is going through because of the pandemic and we have to step up of the pandemic and we have to step up as a government and help with that. but also i want our older people to have the dignity and care they deserve an older age and this means we have to try and then balance getting taxes right and i think we have done this way, and keeping them as possible at the same time. £31 keeping them as possible at the same time. . ., , . keeping them as possible at the same time. , . time. of course the pandemic has chan . ed time. of course the pandemic has changed things — time. of course the pandemic has changed things and _ time. of course the pandemic has changed things and has _ time. of course the pandemic has changed things and has led - time. of course the pandemic has changed things and has led to - changed things and has led to waiting lists and the back of that

has to be dealt with. i think everybody will accept that, but this was meant to be, these reforms were meant to be at their heart about reforming and sorting out social care once and for ever. and yet lots of people this money will look at these plans and say, hang on a minute, how much of this money is really going to end up going to social care? it is mainly going to the nhs are certainly in the early days and you are not giving any guarantees about how much will ever go to social care. it looks a bit dodgy, doesn't it? looks like a way of funding the nhs, not funding and setting out social care. it is setting out social care. it is called the _ setting out social care. it is called the health _ setting out social care. it is called the health and - setting out social care. it 3 called the health and social care levy clearly it will go into the nhs and social care.— and social care. how much of it in three years. _ and social care. how much of it in three years, when _ and social care. how much of it in three years, when hopefully - and social care. how much of it in three years, when hopefully this | and social care. how much of it in - three years, when hopefully this nhs backlog is cleared, what proportion of this levy money will go to social care? , ., , care? over the next three years it will certainly _ care? over the next three years it will certainly be _ care? over the next three years it will certainly be 5.4 _ care? over the next three years it will certainly be 5.4 billion - care? over the next three years it will certainly be 5.4 billion going l will certainly be 5.4 billion going into adult social care. after three

years, that cap, the £86,000 cap i've talked tough on your lifetime cost of social care, once that starts biting them more and more will go into adult social care. it is important to point out that this 5.4 billion is on top of what the committee is already putting in on an annual basis in adult social care which is around 20 billion per year and together that is a huge amount into adult social care and allows us to deliver this package we have set out. �* ., , ., to deliver this package we have set out. �* ., ,., , to deliver this package we have set out. �* ., ~ out. billions of pounds sound like hue out. billions of pounds sound like huge sums _ out. billions of pounds sound like huge sums of— out. billions of pounds sound like huge sums of money _ out. billions of pounds sound like huge sums of money but - out. billions of pounds sound like huge sums of money but that - out. billions of pounds sound like huge sums of money but that 5 i huge sums of money but that 5 billion is less than 20% of the money you are raising there are no guarantees at the moment about when or if that proportion will increase going to social care. it is or if that proportion will increase going to social care.— or if that proportion will increase going to social care. it is true, as ou going to social care. it is true, as you point — going to social care. it is true, as you point out. — going to social care. it is true, as you point out, that _ going to social care. it is true, as you point out, that is _ going to social care. it is true, as you point out, that is more, - you point out, that is more, certainly over the next three years, as a proportion is going into the nhs come into our health service. i think anyone can understand that

because right now in the nhs with the waiting list where it is and where it is projected to go, that is where it is projected to go, that is where we need to have a huge focus of resources, funding going to the nhs, 16 billion will help to create, for example, 9 million white scans and the checkups and treatments, allows us to invest in surgical hubs and new technology so people can get seen were quickly —— more quickly. that's a cure is a huge investment but we also have the cost of disease, we want to make sure we are providing the nhs a test and trace service with what they need, that the nhs staff and clinicians are getting the ppe they need. the pandemic is not over, we are in a much better place but we need to plan for that. the same applies in aduu plan for that. the same applies in adult social care, we need to make sure those costs are met for the long term. within that 5.4 billion

package for adult social care, we are also putting £500 million into work was training, giving more than 1 billion to local authorities so they can pay a ferret cost of care so there is a huge number of reforms, but the big one is this cap on spending but also there is a more generous means testing system which i think is important. we generous means testing system which i think is important.— i think is important. we have spoken to --eole i think is important. we have spoken to people from _ i think is important. we have spoken to people from the _ i think is important. we have spoken to people from the care _ i think is important. we have spoken to people from the care industry - to people from the care industry this morning who still feel they are the poor relation in this, they won't get enough money, not get it soon enough. they particularly pointed to this issue of staffing within social care industry, that they can't get, they can't retain enough members of staff. if somebody is watching breakfast and they are going to work in a care home and pretty low wages and maybe they are about to lose their universal credit of in the next few months, i don't understand what there is in these proposals of yours to persuade them to stick with theirjob, to stay in that industry. to stick with their 'ob, to stay in that industry.— to stick with their 'ob, to stay in that industry. first of all there is a staffint

nhs. that is important but there is also one other important change if i may quickly mention, which is what i refer to elliott, the cost of care. what we have seen at the moment is, because local authorities have not had the funding they need to pay the full cost of care, there has been across subsidisation in the sector for people that are paying privately, and that needs to end, and this new funding will mean that local authorities will be able to pay more for the care package which hopefully then will translate itself into even more support for the workforce. into even more support for the workforce-— into even more support for the workforce. ., ., ., , workforce. ok, what about families who had the _ workforce. ok, what about families who had the headline _ workforce. ok, what about families who had the headline yesterday - workforce. ok, what about families| who had the headline yesterday that they will not have to pay more than £86,000 for the care of their loved one, that that is a cap, then they look at the small print today and realise that is just for the care part of this, they will still have to pay for food for their relative, it may be in a care home, whether the accommodation costs or heating costs. they still face huge bills, don't they? way above 86,000. that

is not small— don't they? way above 86,000. trust is not small print, that is upfront and very clear. and you's proposal, it is true in most countries that as we age, one day we will, we pay for food and accommodation but that is why government is providing spotty other ways. some of us met her private pensions that even if we don't we're all tied to the state pension and when that is a set and calculate it by any government it is designed to meet those basic living costs of things like food and accommodation and nobody is taking that state pension away, that are still there for that individual and thatis still there for that individual and that is the money that can be used and probably will be used to meet the food and accommodation costs. here we are talking about, which leads to the catastrophic costs of care, are at the social care costs, where one in seven people we estimate face cost of care of over £100,000 and that is not right. we

have to bring peace of mind, give them more confidence and that is why having this lifetime cap achieves just that. having this lifetime cap achieves 'ust that. ., having this lifetime cap achieves 'ust that. . ., ~ ., ., , just that. can we talk about 'abs? there will just that. can we talk about 'abs? there will he i just that. can we talk about 'abs? there will be kids * just that. can we talk about 'abs? there will be kids going h just that. can we talk about 'abs? there will be kids going to h just that. can we talk about jabs? there will be kids going to school| there will be kids going to school and mums and dads wondering when their children might get a jab, a disease marker vaccine. how is that looking? how likely is it that secondary school children will get these jabs was that we are already offering jabs to 16 and 17—year—olds. offering jabs to 16 and 17-year-olds.- offering jabs to 16 and 17- ear-olds. ., ., 17-year-olds. you are asking about 12 to 15 euros. _ 17-year-olds. you are asking about 12 to 15 euros. i _ 17-year-olds. you are asking about 12 to 15 euros. i have _ 17-year-olds. you are asking about 12 to 15 euros. i have asked - 17-year-olds. you are asking about 12 to 15 euros. i have asked for- 12 to 15 euros. i have asked for advice from the chief medical officers of the uk, the four cheap medical officers. as we speak they are looking at this. they have been doing this over the weekend and the last few days. they have not reached a judgment yet. i don't want to prejudge that, that would be wholly inappropriate. but prejudge that, that would be wholly inappropriate-— inappropriate. but do you have an idea and will _ inappropriate. but do you have an idea and will get _ inappropriate. but do you have an idea and will get the _ inappropriate. but do you have an idea and will get the decision? . idea and will get the decision? schools are back, children are mixing in classrooms, most of them

is of the top of the heat yesterday a bit cooler today, that is a sign of a change because after the hot and sunny weather to start this week the second half of the week, expect more cloud and increasing shower and a gentle slide in how things will feel out there. at the moment we have approaching from the south—west, this is what will bring the change. release thunderstorms for one or two later, the risk of some flooding from that but for most it is dry, some mist and fog around, that were clear. work hard for northern ireland, wales, south—west england and the channel islands and still cloudy the final for scotland. away from that, lots of sunshine, hazy and faces and temperatures peaking around 27 degrees in western scotland, in 30 degrees to the south east corner. compared to the 30 degrees we saw yesterday, channel islands, south—west england, wales, generally around the low 20s. not rising much from the temperatures we have at the moment. this evening and overnight showers and thunderstorms start to move northwards. they will

be fairly erratic in nature, meaning a lot of you will stay dry but if you could have a disturbed night with rumours of the nick allen flashes of lightning, and it will be a humid night night, the cloud in place and it might feel more humid than last night as we head into tomorrow morning. we start the day with temperatures in the teens teens as tomorrow more cloud around. showers most likely fast northern ireland, scotland and northern england. in the south and west, we start dry and fog but we will see nissan showers develop when you see showers it would be torrential in places, some will stay completely dry and not as hot but still pretty warm and humid, temperatures across eastern areas 25 degrees. through thursday night and into friday, lots of cloud, a few showers dotted around to begin with but three friday itself we see the showers coming to life, more widespread, heavy and thundering through the day they could come up with the risk of

flooding and it will start to feel cooler. still slightly humid but a fresh appeal on the way as we head into the weekend. to tell how your weather is looking. you, dan and louise. jon and louise! i'm not doing very well.— louise. jon and louise! i'm not doing very well. louise. jon and louise! i'm not doint ve well. , ., doing very well. sometimes there are weeks that don't _ doing very well. sometimes there are weeks that don't go _ doing very well. sometimes there are weeks that don't go swimmingly - doing very well. sometimes there are weeks that don't go swimmingly as i l weeks that don't go swimmingly as i have a sit down and your garden furniture, relax in the sun. l have a sit down and your garden furniture, relax in the sun. i think i need it- — if you've missed the drama of the olympics and the paralympics... imean, i mean, what have you been doing? anyway... you don't have that long to wait until the next big show—piece event. the ticket ballot is now open for next summer's commonwealth games in birmingham. swimmer adam peaty is three—time commonwealth champion — is there anything this man hasn't won? hejoins us now. you have no medals here and i love the shorts. l

bars and restaurants... ..its football stadium... ..the bataclan concert hall. stephane lost his son, hugo, that night at the bataclan. no trial, he says, can heal the pain. it was complicated because it's, first of all, a personal loss — the loss of a child, my son — and it's also a collective loss. and then it was sometimes difficult to manage these two situations. 20 defendants are accused of murder, complicity, and terrorist conspiracy. salah abdeslam — the only suspected attacker to survive that night — is facing the most serious charges. 19 others are accused of involvement — including mohammed abrini, who prosecutors say accompanied the attackers to paris from their home in belgium. six of the accused are

being tried in absentia. and for a unique event, a unique location. this temporary courtroom built exclusively for the trial sits within the historic court ofjustice in paris. the light colours have been chosen to promote a sense of calm, there's a secure box for the defendants, and ten cameras to record the trial for france's national history. the trauma of that night has continued to ripple through france. six years on, what will it mean to see salah abdeslam standing in the dock? you know, you just imagine the devil. you just imagine somebody with a strong intellectual... maybe... maybe i'm wrong. but people, we think, that's this kind of man who have done so awful things. stephane says he doesn't need to see the key defendant — but he wants abdeslam to see him. after six years, it's very important

for me to face him and to face the other and to say, "ok, look at me, i'm there, i'm alive." my son is not there but through me, he's still here, we are still standing. you didn't win. for stephane, this trial marks the moment when national trauma becomes national history. easierfor a nation to move on, he says, than for him. lucy williamson, bbc news, paris. britney spears' father has filed papers in a los angeles court to end his control over her estate. the arrangement was put in place in 2008 after the singer suffered mental health issues. she's been to court twice to try to end the arrangement, claiming her father's treatment of her was abuse. this report from our north america correspondent, david willis contains flashing images. # you're toxic, i'm slippin' under...

it's an arrangement she has branded toxic — one that britney spears says has prevented herfrom getting married and having a baby. now her father has finally agreed to relinquish the tight control he's maintained over her multi—million—dollar fortune ever since she was hospitalised with mental health issues following several highly public breakdowns back in 2008. having long maintained there was no justification for his removal from her conservatorship, jamie spears agreed under mounting pressure last month to step down — although he didn't specify when. a petition from britney spears' lawyers to remove him was due to be heard later this month. but in papers filed on his behalf, jamie spears has now conceded that his daughter's circumstances have changed to the extent that grounds for the establishment of a conservatorship may no longer exist. as mr spears has said again

and again, the petition goes on, all he wants is what is best for his daughter. if miss spears wants to terminate the conservatorship and believes that she can handle her own life, mr spears believes that she should get that chance. for the free britney fans — who've long maintained that the conservatorship amounts to jamie spears holding his daughter hostage — it's a major victory. the singer's lawyer, matthew rosengart, called it a massive legal victory, as well as vindication for miss spears. but he said an investigation into allegations of financial mismanagement on the part ofjamie spears will go on. ending the conservatorship will give britney spears unfettered control over her life, her finances and her health treatment for the first time in 13 years. first, though, it requires the approval of thejudge overseeing her case — and the next court hearing is due to take place in three weeks' time.

david willis, bbc news, los angeles. we will of course keep you up—to—date without unfolding story. you have been given a special sign i want you to show to everybody. the crew have decided to make this for me. my brain is failing me a lot but i am going to blame the hot and humid. my favourite is to remind me who i am. they will leave it up by accident and tomorrow will be chaos. unbelievable. scary. i do not want to think about it. i am on the roof of broadcasting house in the sunshine. looking at the forecast today, another hot and sunny day across much of the uk. there are

signs of change. more clout developing across the southwest. tomorrow showers more widely across the country and eventually it will turn much fresher. one or two mist and fog patches clearing. across the channel islands, south—west england, wales and into parts of northern ireland this is where we have got more cloud. one or two showers dotted around. severe thunderstorms possible. that could cause minor flooding. nowhere near as hot today as yesterday. in the west of scotland by 27 and in london around 30 possible. that will lead us into a very sultry night, not great. full stability showers pushing northwards. hit and miss. any places will avoid them. flashes of lightning which may disturb sleep. tomorrow a lot more cloud around. in scotland, northern ireland and northern england the greatest chance of a few showers which will then

develop in wales and west in england. they then it will be under it. in the east not as hot but still humid at 25 degrees. things turn fresher towards the end of the week. that is how it is looking. i nearly stumbled there. where is the paper again? what day is it? it says wednesday, apparently. what is your name? matt. we trust this man to tell us what the weather will do overnight. i still trust him. see you in a bit stop. we're talking a lot this morning about plans to increase national insurance contributions to pay for health and social care. mps will vote on the proposals later today, but how would the changes affect us all?

nina is here to explain. good morning. way back before covid, can you remember that our bag? the big question about funding health and social care has weighed heavily on successive governments. yesterday borisjohnson announced what he called the biggest catch—up programme in the history of the nhs. £36 billion, raised over three years, to deal with the backlog caused by covid—19. more than £5 billion of that will go towards changes to social care in england. scotland, wales and northern ireland will also receive an additional £2.2 billion to spend on their services. the money will also be used to overhaul how much families pay towards social care. but where is that money coming from? you know by now about the uk—wide increase in national insurance contributions of 1.25 percentage points. for most workers that will go from 12% to 13.25% of earnings, which will become a new health and social care levy on your payslip and tax returns. is that a lot? well, combined with the taxes

announced in march, it's the biggest yearfor tax rises in more than 40 years. let's look at what it means for us. someone on £20,000 a year will pay an extra £130 annually. someone earning £50,000 will pay an extra £505. and what's also new here is that people over the state pension age who are working will also have to pay the new levy. the government says that's only fair. but does it go far enough? others argue it's still the young footing a disproportionate amount of the bill. national insurance is levied. it means— national insurance is levied. it means young people will be working for longer— means young people will be working for longer and pay more additional tax over— for longer and pay more additional tax over their lifetimes than olden people _ tax over their lifetimes than olden people. pensioners will not be paying — people. pensioners will not be

paying any additional tax as a result— paying any additional tax as a result of— paying any additional tax as a result of the announcements. this is a drag anchor onjobs growth at a crucial time. will it be worth it? what will the impact be on the elderly? good news for some families. at the moment if people have assets worth more than £20,000 they have to pay for social care — and there is no upper limit on how much. that's about to change. those —— so i think there are two parts of the social care announcement social care announcement that are going to really matter for families. one is that those families with assets that are between £20,000 and £100,000 will now get some support. sojust overall, more families will be getting some support

for their social care costs. the second element is a cap, that means that no—one will have to pay more than £86,000 in total over their lives for their social care. and that'll be really important for those families who are hit with very, very high social care costs. don't forget, though — that is literally for personal care — things like help bathing and taking medicine. the cap doesn't cover the huge expenses of accommodation, food and energy. and then there's changes to the so—called pension triple lock — a promise to link state pension increases to to earnings, inflation, or 2.5% — whichever is the highest. because average wages have been so erratic over covid, that element is being excluded for a year. so the state pension is likely to rise at a more modest level. there will be a budget and a spending review next month, and what yesterday's announcement has taught us is to expect the unexpected. this money that is being raised, the vast majority in the moment is going into the _ vast majority in the moment is going into the backlog in the nhs and only then will— into the backlog in the nhs and only then will they focus more on social care _ then will they focus more on social care it— then will they focus more on social care. ., , , then will they focus more on social care. . , , ., care. it was interesting hearing sa'id javid care. it was interesting hearing sajid javid saying _ care. it was interesting hearing sajid javid saying at _ care. it was interesting hearing sajid javid saying at this i care. it was interesting hearing sajid javid saying at this point i care. it was interesting hearing l sajid javid saying at this point we cannot say this will be it. the question has in no way gone away.

under the new propsals to fund social care, no—one will have to pay more than £86,000 for their care. although they might still have to face paying for other things. but, as tim muffett reports, some families are already facing huge costs. my name isjonathan, my mother's name isjean. she is 93 and she's had parkinson's for the last 20 years. as his mum's health has declined, jonathan's faced mounting costs — emotional and financial. she has paid for her care herself all along — it's about £267,000 now — and that's come from £180,000 of savings, plus her earnings — because she does have an income. but now her half of the house is being sold, so she has basically left 166,000 to pay for the remainder of her care. and from my reckoning, that will last herjust over four years. and after that, she will be quite

literally penniless. my mother worked for the nhs for many years, my father worked for the post office for many years. and they bought their house when things were... you know, not many people bought houses. so they saved, worked, and now all of their assets are likely to go. campaigners are warning, although the new changes are welcome, the chancellor will still need to provide more money for council care services. jonathan thinks it's unlikely his family will benefit from yesterday's announcement. my overriding thoughts, actually, are about my father, who died — must have been 25 years ago now — he would so hate the idea that all his earnings, which paid for their home, are likely to go. i think that would really, really upset him.

the reforms around social care in england, proposed by the government, are based on a plan set out ten years ago. in 2011, a report led by the economist sir andrew dilnot recommended a cap on how much people should have to pay towards their care. hejoins us now from northumberland. morning to you. thank you for joining us. interesting to be able to talk to you given what we know now. what is your first impression? are you welcome what has happened? does it go far enough? i are you welcome what has happened? does it go far enough?— does it go far enough? i certainly welcome what _ does it go far enough? i certainly welcome what has _ does it go far enough? i certainly welcome what has happened. i does it go far enough? i certainly welcome what has happened. we does it go far enough? i certainly i welcome what has happened. we have had the best part of 30 years where there was a desperate need to do something about social care. the situation at families like jonathan have found themselves in, extraordinarily unnecessary. i would like the cap to be lower and the means tested threshold to be increased by a bit more. we should

definitely say this is a major step forward. we still have got the challenge of funding the existing system properly. these changes won't really start to take place for another couple of years. in the interim and thereafter we have got to make sure we put enough money in to make sure we put enough money in to look after the most vulnerable who have no income of their own to use. this is a momentous day for 70 years since the founding of the welfare state social care has been the poor relation in the british welfare state. we could all do nothing about it and it has been brought into the fold and that is a good thing. it brought into the fold and that is a tood thin. ., , �* brought into the fold and that is a good thing-— good thing. it doesn't start until october 2023. _ good thing. it doesn't start until october 2023. any _ good thing. it doesn't start until october 2023. any care i good thing. it doesn't start until october 2023. any care costs i good thing. it doesn't start until- october 2023. any care costs before that date will not count towards that date will not count towards that cap. lots of people will be impacted by that, when they? hate that cap. lots of people will be impacted by that, when they? we have had man , impacted by that, when they? we have had many. many _ impacted by that, when they? we have had many, many years, _ impacted by that, when they? we have had many, many years, as _ impacted by that, when they? we have had many, many years, as the i impacted by that, when they? we have had many, many years, as the stories. had many, many years, as the stories in the packagejust

had many, many years, as the stories in the package just told us where people have been on their own. that looks like it will last for a bit longer. i wish the proposers could be implemented immediately but it will take local authorities a bit of time to get the structures in place to deal with that. it would have been great had this happened many years ago and there are still families every day, every week entering the pair system and having a very difficult time. we should also remember the people who work in social care. there are 1.5 million people working in the social care sector, as many as work in the nhs, and they have also been struggling over the past few decades. most of them are very low paid and it is a very difficult sector to work in. they also need help. there are elements targeted at improving the experience of the workforce, giving them more training and structure. they will also be paying extra

towards national insurance, won't they? towards national insurance, won't the ? , , ., ., they? they will. there is a great deal of political _ they? they will. there is a great deal of political heat _ they? they will. there is a great deal of political heat about i they? they will. there is a great deal of political heat about all. they? they will. there is a great deal of political heat about all of this that people in general in the population recognise that if we are going to have something new if we are buying something new, in this case we are buying social insurance for our care at any time, then we do have to pay for it. so i am struck the population as a whole seems, according to various opinion polls are around grape is open to the idea that if you are getting something new you need to pay for it. of course there are wrinkles around that but on the whole i think people recognise that that is the reality of the world we live in, if you want to have something to make things better we have got to pay for it somehow. better we have got to pay for it somehow-— better we have got to pay for it somehow. ., , ., , , somehow. people might assume tersonal somehow. people might assume personal care — somehow. people might assume personal care includes _ somehow. people might assume i personal care includes everything. there are significant things that are excluded like accommodation,

deemed to be hotel costs could rise significantly. that is a detail of the implementation we will need to keep a very close i am.— keep a very close i am. details are the important _ keep a very close i am. details are the important things. _ keep a very close i am. details are the important things. really i keep a very close i am. details are the important things. really good | keep a very close i am. details are l the important things. really good to talk to you. thank you for your time. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm tolu adeoye. a london council is sitting on a pot of more than £8.5 million of overpaid council tax. a freedom of information request found it relates to almost 67,000 accounts at lewisham council. those affected could be able to claim back an average of £130. the council said it can be difficult to trace people who pay in advance if they move out of the borough, but there's no time limit on claiming money back. detectives have charged a further

man with the murder of a 22—year—old in south west london. kai davis died after being stabbed near a nightclub on clarence street in kingston on the 21st of august. 18—year—old conrad adams is now the third person to be charged with his murder. a man who was told he had just a couple of years to live and lost the ability to walk and talk is on a mission to raise £50,000 for charity. phil rossall from 0rpington was diagnosed with motor neurone disease in 2016. since then he's done marathons in his wheelchair and most recently taken up a blinking challenge. it's best not to dwell on what you have lost, but rather to concentrate on what you can still do. i was getting too weak to be able to take part in racing or other more physically demanding challenges, so blinking seemed to be the obvious thing for me to be able to keep doing something positive to help others who raise funds for the mnd association. a two—week skateboarding showcase

is coming to central london from today as part of the inside out festival. a pop—up skate park is being placed on the strand, just outside somerset house. there will be free coaching and demos from professionals. let's take a look at the travel situation this morning. the tubes aren't too bad, but the central line has severe delays between leytonstone and woodford after an earlier powerfailure. they are now minor delays. briefly on the roads — on the m25, queues anticlockwise from swanley to lakeside after an earlier accident. onto the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. the last slice of summery september sunshine continues across the capital again today. here are some of our weather watcher pictures from yesterday — glorious blue skies in vauxhall and again in kew is captured by surbiton sue. and we are likely to see the same sort of scenes again today. little bit of mist around to start the day, but it's not a widespread problem. certainly very mild out there, too, and temperatures will rise nicely in all of that sunshine.

we're likely to see the high 20s again quite widely — 30 degrees celsius always possible toward central and western areas. perhaps a little bit of high cloud just coming and going at times, and that will turn the sunshine a bit hazier. you can start to see our approaching weather front from the west as we head towards the end of the day — that's going to sweep its way eastwards overnight. so it will turn cloudier, it'll still be mild, rather humid—feeling, and there'll also be some showers at times. and we're looking at heavy, thundery downpours potentially on and off through the day tomorrow. but it's still warm for this time of year with temperatures peaking this time in the low 20s in celsius. it's a bit windier still on friday, there'll also be some showers around, generally cooler and unsettled for the rest of this week. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london in half an hour. now, though, it's back tojon and louise. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and louise minchin. morning live follows us on bbc one this morning. let's find out what's in store

we'll speak to him and the race founder sir brendan foster in a moment — but first let's look back at some of the race's memorable moments. i think it's one of the best organisations i've ever seen. a colourful and joyous celebration of regional identity and spirit. there's wonderful places i in the south, but they are not a patch on what we've got up north. people are asking us, are you going to do it again next year? to be perfectly honest, we've got no choice. we've got to do it next year because that's what the public are demanding, you know? if i die today, i believe i am going to go to heaven. it doesn't matter.

focused, the cloud earlier onjust pushing up towards south—west. when we see those storms there is the risk of some flash flooding through today. do be careful of that. there will be one or two spots who avoid it altogether. more cloud than northern ireland with one or two isolated showers and more cloud in the final. and which could bring rain to shetland but much of scotland, north—east wales, good part of england, a dry, sunny and hot day. temperature is 27 degrees in western scotland, maybe up to around 30 degrees towards london and south—east, but when we see storms today, we saw temperatures of 30, 31 yesterday, on the low 205 today but it will still feel quite humid and muggy. the storms will be on the move further northwards and eastwards across the country overnight, becoming more erratic. many places will stay dry but you can have it disturbed night and not just from that, temperatures will not drop below high teens but also because of rumbles of thunder and flashes of lightning around. that

takes us into tomorrow, thursday, showers, longer spells of rain across parts of scotland and northern ireland and it will be a story of some sunny spells waiting for the morning gloom across parts of england and wales. misty and murky in some spots but showers will develop. that done up a hit and miss some of stay completely dry, particularly in the east. temperatures dropping relative to what we have seen the last couple of days but it will still feel pretty warm and humid out there. as it will be have to go through the night and into friday. some showers around overnight for free friday, into friday. some showers around overnight forfree friday, showers and thunderstorms will develop quite widely, particularly inland away from the coast where you see the shows, there is the risk they could be severe with the risk of flooding. temperatures continue to drop away, high teens, low 205 by this stage. as we go through to the weekend, low pressure system was way further, the showers become fewer in, but temperatures will drop that little bit more. temperatures only in the teens for most as we head into next

week stop that is how your weather is looking, things are on the change but certainly for today we will see some hot and humid weatherfor some, almost perfect weather for a birthday. happy birthday, luisa. thank you very much! it is always lovely on my birthday. ——, louise. it tookjust 16 minutes for a new british cycling golden couple to emerge when neil and lora fachie took gold in their individual races at the paralympics. not only did they win, they also smashed world records. let's take a look at their winning moments. music.
