starmer pledges a tax raid on private schools if he wins power. at least three people are killed and dozens more injured as a train derailed in the american state of montana. and shock defeat for britain's anthonyjoshua, who has lost his world heavyweight titles after being beaten by oleksandr usyk of ukraine. hello and welcome. more than 10,000 workers will be given temporary uk visas in a government u—turn designed to stop supply chain disruption ahead of? . it comes after a shortage of drivers led to fuel delivery problems at petrol stations and empty shelves in supermarkets. 5000 fuel tanker and food lorry drivers will be eligible to work in the uk for three months

until christmas eve. the scheme is also extended to 5500 poultry workers. the british chamber of commerce said the latest announcement was like throwing a thimble of water on a bonfire. here's our business correspondence katie austin. the 5,000 visas will be available for people who drive fuel tankers and food lorries from the start of october. they'll last only until christmas eve. it's thought the shortfall of hgv drivers in the uk runs into tens of thousands. the problem has been building for years but has worsened following brexit and the pandemic. 0ne haulier said today's news was a step in the right direction. it might well get us over the peak time although i would like to have seen it four months, but we'll take what we can. but it's not enough and it's too little too late, basically. the government had resisted calls from retail and freight business groups for a short—term relaxation of immigration rules. now that's changed. it follows two days of issues at petrol stations which began with a shortage of drivers

delivering to some bp garages and became widespread once drivers ignored pleas not to panic buy. the group which represents european hauliers isn't sure how many drivers will want to come. we will need to see once the new provisions will be officially adopted. what i can say is that the shortage of drivers is a long—term problem. it's a long—term issue which requires long—term solutions. and this will also depend upon the type of transportation from the eu to the uk. the trade body representing major uk supermarkets insisted they alone needed at least 15,000 lorry drivers to avoid christmas disruption. 5,500 chicken and turkey workers will also be eligible for visas. but one business group said these latest measures only helped to a limited extent.

look, i think it's a really good start but it'sjust not going to be enough. we have a critical shortage of really skilled workers, not just these drivers but also in other sectors too. and we need a proper plan on how we're going to transition from where we are now to what's really coming. this is going to really wreck our economic recovery unless we absolutely sort our supply chain issues out now. funding has also been announced to train up 4,000 more uk drivers and to use staff from the ministry of defence to boost the number of test examiners. the government says visas won't be a long—term solution, insisting it's the responsibility of businesses to invest in the domestic workforce. katy austin, bbc news. breaking news, detectives investigating the murder of sabina nessa have arrested a man on suspicion of murder. simon, what more can you tell us? she

words of the police this morning. thank you, simon. polls arejust opening in germany's parliamentary election, 60 million voters will choose a new parliament and successor to chancellor angela merkel, who has been in powerfor 16 years. at stake is the leadership of europe's most powerful economy in the race couldn't be tighter. we be live in germany to bring you the latest. this is the scene right now at a polling station in berlin as the best voters are turning up. here is our berlin correspondent damien mcguinness. is there expected to be a good turnout for this election? yes, according to official estimates we are looking at maybe 80% turnout, which is very high. germany tends to have high turnout anyway but that would be a record—breaker. this is an interesting race because it is so unpredictable for a lot of reasons. firstly, we are looking at a lot of postal votes, around 40% of postal votes that might be sent in and that

means many will have already voted weeks ago, so difficult to pick how they will have voted because things have changed. for months now, paul sabine erratic and volatile, so that the past four months, we have seen three different parties leading the polls, first the greens, then angela merkel�*s cdu, and then until today, lead by the centre—left spd, 0laf scholz. the race is between 0laf scholz. the race is between 0laf scholz and the conservative candidate, armin laschet. those two are neck and neck at the moment, so difficult to say which of those two will really step into angela merkel�*s choose. but they will have to cobble together a coalition with two extra parties, so we will look at an election result today which will give us a fair idea of who might be chancellor, but we won't know very much about who will be in that government because we will have

negotiations after that other coalition, so it'll be a tight race today and quite a long complicated negotiation period later on. first result tonight but don't to see what the government will look like straightaway, that'll take a while. now we will talk to the chief political editor of germany's public funded broadcaster. thank you for joining us. 16 years as chancellor angela merkel, there will be people in germany who do not remember much else other than having her has chancellor. this is such a significant moment for the country, isn't it? yes, it is a watershed moment, the end of an era, and we had this before when i was young, the chancellor of germany who appeared to be the only possible chancellor, and here in germany suddenly people are wondering whether a man can be chancellor here in germany. it will show the legacy angela merkel will have more cdu

party bloc here in germany, with what she has left it. as we are seeing, it is a tight competition between these two parties in germany, the social democrats and angela merkel conservative cdu. we were hearing from our correspondent that the negotiations for forming a coalition would be long and difficult, what is the expectation? damien was absolutely right, all we can say is that with a large degree of certainty, the runner—up or the one in third place right now, the green party, they have seen a steep decline from the soaring highs being led by annalena baerbock, they will be the most likely party to end up in government, but the question is, who will send out the invites what is expected to be a coalition? it could be angela merkel�*s conservative cdu, it could be the

social democrats, it could be the pro—business free democrats being the kingmakers here, ironic given they walk away from that option four years ago, and we are seeing this as too close to call in what will pan out to be a german government leaving germany into the next four crucial years, where the government will have to tackle issues like climate change, and angela merkel recognise that early on, but we failed to deliver on. tt is failed to deliver on. it is obviously _ failed to deliver on. it is obviously tired - failed to deliver on. it is obviously tired looking i failed to deliver on. it is obviously tired looking forward with whatever comes into next. but how much is there of looking back to angela merkel and her legacy and how the germans feel about her now? people didn't want to let her go, she is actually the first german chancellor to step down, it was her choice to do that. four others were thrown out or defeated in elections and there is a certain melancholy here as well and people really

cherished her steady hand politics. stability is sexy in a german political context and that is what angela merkel had as her political brand, and whatever those election posters about the cdu party and the social democrats, 0laf scholz is her current vice chancellor in governing coalition and he is trying to present herself as a politician. germans are certainly conservative when it comes to the whole structure of politics here. people do not want to take a chance, people don't want experiments and that is also why people like donald trump would be unthinkable here, they don't want to give it a go, they want a track record of steady handed politics and both are frontrunners at the moment are trying to portray themselves as basically the natural air to that political brand.—

election manifesto. at the time, there was pushback from the independent private school sector but in terms of the conference floor today, it is likely to go well. what he is saying is that if he scraps the charitable status of private schools in england and their exemption from vat and business rates, that would raise £1.7 billion, which he said he could then invest into state schools to improve state schools across—the—board. what labour is saying is they want children to leave school being job ready and life ready. they would put money into things like making sure that there is a long—term aspiration, they say, they say nobody would leave compulsory education without the right qualifications for the modern world and would leave with the right computer skills, they would also get two weeks of compulsory work experience as part of the curriculum and they also want to shake up the citizenship element of the national curriculum to include some of the more practical skills of lifelike planning of your pension and applying for a mortgage,

understanding rental contracts and credit scores. lots of measures they are looking at here to make sure children leave ready for life and ready for work. the way of paying for it, that removal of exemption for it, that removal of exemption for private schools in england, that will go down quite well with members, but the reaction more widely will be more interesting to see. . ~' widely will be more interesting to see. . ~ , ., ~ widely will be more interesting to see. . ~ , ., widely will be more interesting to see. . ~ ., see. thank you, helen. an update on our headlines. _ see. thank you, helen. an update on our headlines. the _ see. thank you, helen. an update on our headlines. the uk _ see. thank you, helen. an update on our headlines. the uk is _ see. thank you, helen. an update on our headlines. the uk is to _ see. thank you, helen. an update on our headlines. the uk is to issue - our headlines. the uk is to issue temporary visas to thousands of workers to address fuel and food supplies, but experts say doesn't go far enough. detectives investigating the murder of sabina nessa have arrested a 30—year—old man on suspicion of murder in what scotland yard say is a significant relevance. germans go to the polls as the country decides who they want to lead in a post angela merkel era. the chinese technology giant shoe wildly has said it will continue

into processing transactions with a company based in iran, breaching american sanctions. her case was complicated by the fact that she is the daughter of the founder of huawei. she secured a deal after admitting to mislead a bank and elsewhere, two canadians arrived home. michael coverage and michael spavor had been under arrest for the same amount of time as meng wanzhou. china says this was not related to her case but they released the man almost instantly after she was freed. critics have called it hostage diplomacy. these two men have gone through an unbelievably difficult ordeal. for the past thousand days, they have shown strength, perseverance, resilience and grace and we are all inspired by that. both men maintain their innocence throughout. i find myself at a loss for words because the moment is so...
