i will tell you, one of the narratives while some individual was injecting other people with drugs. iraq's prime minister mustafa al—kadhimi survives an attempt on his life as rockets hit his home in baghdad's high—security sector. borisjohnson has called for ambitious commitments and bold compromises, as the un climate negotiations in glasgow enter their final week. england's health secretary sajid javid urges people over 50 to get their covid booster injections as part of a campaign to avoid restrictions over christmas. let's catch up with the sport and get the latest from jane dougal. good morning, joanna. despite a first win in the league for norwich city, the club sacked their manager daniel farke just a few hours later. mathias normann scored the pick of the goals in norwich�*s
9:31 am
2—1win over brentford. the victory put a smile on farke�*s face momentarily, but the three points weren't enough to save his job. norwich have twice been promoted under the german, but he leaves with the club bottom of the league. manager ole gunnar solskjaer still has hisjob, despite manchester united losing 2—0 to fierce rivals city in the derby. the loss has increased pressure on the manager with united fifth in the table. it was a lack—lustre performance at old trafford with eric bailly scoring an own goal. then bernardo silva got a second for cityjust before half—time. an impressive performance from them, but it's united's fourth defeat in six premier league matches and a second consecutive loss at home to one of their biggest rivals, prompting more questions to be asked of the united boss. it isa it is a couple of steps back again
9:32 am
after a few steps forward last week. we need everybody back fresh in their minds and look like what we started to look like before the liverpool game. at the end of last season, at the start of the season, we looked a bit more like we wanted to. another club in trouble, and with a potential new manager is newcastle. they stay just above bottom placed norwich in 19th after a draw against brighton. leandro trossard gave the home side the lead, but newcastle then got an equaliser through isaac hayden. and watching him was eddie howe — former bournemouth manager — alongside new co—owner amanda staveley. howe is the man widely tipped to get the job after newcastle sacked steve bruce. burnley complete the bottom three, after getting a point at league leaders chelsea. matej vydra with burnley�*s late equaliser after kai havertz had put chelsea ahead. elsewhere, crystal palace beat wolves 2—0. there are four more premier league fixtures today. liverpool travel to west ham
9:33 am
for the late game, but before that, arsenal take on watford, leeds play leicester and antonio conte will take charge of his first league match since becoming tottenham head coach and he's expecting a tough afternoon against everton. our expectation is a tough game, because everton is a really good team. goodison park is not an easy place to play, but at the same time i will want to show that, want to try to improve the results, especially for our table. but it won't be easy. rangers can increase their lead at the top of the scottish premiership if they can beat ross county at ibrox later and if celtic drop points at dundee. hearts are second for a few more hours at least after they beat dundee united 5—2 at tynecastle. motherwell won away at aberdeen and it was goalless
9:34 am
between stjohnstone and st mirren. england are through to the semi—finals of the men's t20 cricket world cup, despite losing to south africa. they fell short byjust ten runs in sharjah, rassie van der dussen topscoring with 94 to help set england a target of 190 to win. moeen ali did his best to get his side over the line, but they lost three wickets in quick sucession so just couldn't get there. and jason roy is a doubt for the rest of the tournament after injuring his calf. in rugby union, england thrashed tonga 69—3 in their opening match of the autumn internationals. and they did it without captain owen farrell who'd tested positive for coronavirus. but england's new—look side didn't have any issues, running in ii tries against the islanders. 22—year—old marcus smith came on in the second—half to impress the sold out stadium. his first time in an england shirt, but probably not his last.
9:35 am
a very bizarre and cruel moment in the wales south africa game in cardiff as a pitch invader got in the way of liam williams when he had a chance to score. it may well have cost wales, because the springboks went on to get the only try of the match late on. 23—18 it finished at the principality stadium. andrew conway starred for ireland as they eased past japan. he got a hat—trick for the home side in dublin as ireland scored nine tries in a 60—5 victory. that's all the sport for now. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are lucy fisher, deputy political editor for the telegraph and james rampton

9:39 am
party funding. of course, we have heard lots of complaints of the honour system, gongs and knighthoods being used in this way to reward donors. the sunday times makes the point, with the house of lords, there is an extra level of concern because then people then become legislators and have the ability to effect, influence and affect legislation.— effect, influence and affect leaislation. , ., legislation. there is a cartoon in the lords that _ legislation. there is a cartoon in the lords that says, _ legislation. there is a cartoon in the lords that says, for - legislation. there is a cartoon in the lords that says, for what - legislation. there is a cartoon in the lords that says, for what i i legislation. there is a cartoon in i the lords that says, for what i paid for this seat, expected a drinks holder and a popcorn bucket. but how serious is this issue? it is holder and a popcorn bucket. but how serious is this issue?— serious is this issue? it is very serious. there _ serious is this issue? it is very serious. there is _ serious is this issue? it is very serious. there is a _ serious is this issue? it is very serious. there is a new- serious is this issue? it is very serious. there is a new poll. serious is this issue? it is veryl serious. there is a new poll out today— serious. there is a new poll out today that _ serious. there is a new poll out today that puts borisjohnson serious. there is a new poll out today that puts boris johnson at serious. there is a new poll out today that puts borisjohnson at his lowest _ today that puts borisjohnson at his lowest personal approvers rating, -20 _ lowest personal approvers rating, -20 i_ lowest personal approvers rating, —20. i thought i couldn't be anymore shocked _ —20. i thought i couldn't be anymore shocked by— —20. i thought i couldn't be anymore shocked by what the tories have done this week— shocked by what the tories have done this week until i read the story. when _ this week until i read the story. when you — this week until i read the story. when you get a from john major, you

9:42 am
they were given talks by the whips office only for then downing street to pull this idea of overhauling and reforming the system, blocking the suspension of owen paterson and that is what we will hear about in the coming weeks. is what we will hear about in the coming weeks— is what we will hear about in the coming weeks. one mp who voted auainst coming weeks. one mp who voted against the _ coming weeks. one mp who voted against the government _ coming weeks. one mp who voted against the government lost - coming weeks. one mp who voted against the government lost her . against the government lost her position as a pps, but then that was reinstated 2a hours later, which does underline the very impact on diet vote for mp5. does underline the very impact on diet vote for mps. a lot of backbenchers are even thinking about sending a letter of no confidence to say graham brady, the chairman of the 1922 committee. if that happens, that has been a very swift turnaround in the fortunes of boris johnson in recent history in the party? johnson in recent history in the .a ? r , , ., , johnson in recent history in the .a ? r , �* ., , party? absolutely. and the tory source says. — party? absolutely. and the tory source says, knives _ party? absolutely. and the tory source says, knives are - party? absolutely. and the tory source says, knives are being i

9:45 am
its covid services. i think this is something that will be worrying quite a lot of mps, in the early days of the pandemic, there was the sense of chaos, across the world, not just sense of chaos, across the world, notjust in the uk, as people rushed to make sure they had the right tpe, diagnostic tools, therapeutics and ventilators. there are quite a lot of mps who thought, i know someone in the business world, in my constituency and company you could change manufacturing quite quickly. this will be an issue that will receive a lot more attention in coming months, just how mps try to connect in that panic stricken early months of the pandemic, connect their own contacts to the government. possibly, probably many of them motivated byjust trying to help the national effort, but i think there could be a lot of eyebrows raised if it turned out they were paid by those companies. james, this all overshadowing the big picture issue, cop26, the big
9:46 am
picture in the future. so let's take a stock—take on where we are with that. the observer has a couple of pages looking at that, pointing out in one article on those pages, nearly 300 flights within the uk are taken by government staff every day. then they have an analysis of the wins and losses in week one of the climate summit, what are your thoughts on where we are after a week? , ., ., , , ., week? first of all, there must be a government _ week? first of all, there must be a government department _ week? first of all, there must be a government department of - week? first of all, there must be a i government department of hypocrisy. they are _ government department of hypocrisy. they are telling us to take fewer flights, — they are telling us to take fewer flights, which is quite right, but they— flights, which is quite right, but they are — flights, which is quite right, but they are taking 300 internal flights every _ they are taking 300 internal flights every day, — they are taking 300 internal flights every day, not a year, every day. norman — every day, not a year, every day. norman baker, lib dems says, the government is increasingly good at lecturing _ government is increasingly good at lecturing other people while doing the opposite itself. it's hard to -et the opposite itself. it's hard to get away — the opposite itself. it's hard to get away from that conclusion. that aside, _ get away from that conclusion. that aside, i_ get away from that conclusion. that aside, i think cop26 has been disappointing in many ways. the biggest —

9:49 am
either, nor india and us and australia, not willing to commit on coal and russia are not willing to commit on methane. also, interesting there is now a mixed picture on what there is now a mixed picture on what the current plans put forward by each nation will do in terms of limiting global temperatures. of course, at the paris cop conference, the world agreed we needed to limit temperature rises to 1.5 celsius. interesting the international energy agency is saying, the plans put forward to this cop get us to 1.8 degrees temperature rises, the un dispute that and say it will be 2.5 rise. it will be interesting to see where the consensus of science falls in that spectrum. i where the consensus of science falls in that spectrum.— in that spectrum. i want to look at the picture — in that spectrum. i want to look at the picture on _ in that spectrum. i want to look at the picture on the _ in that spectrum. i want to look at the picture on the front _ in that spectrum. i want to look at the picture on the front of- in that spectrum. i want to look at the picture on the front of the - the picture on the front of the sunday telegraph, it is the son of azeem rafiq and he is holding a
