the us and china have released a rarejoint declaration pledging action on climate change. the us climate envoyjohn kerry said it showed that cooperation was the only way forward. new research suggests conspiracy theories promoting climate change scepticism increased ahead of the glasgow conference. britain's prime minister borisjohnson — says a deal for the whole conference is in sight but a determined push will be needed to get it over the line. he was speaking after a draft agreement was published. and speaking after talks at the white house, the president of the european commission, ursula von der leyen, condemned belarus as an authoritarian regime which is using migrants to destabilise its democratic neighbours.

hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are sonia sodha, chief leader writer at the observer and david bond, deputy political editor of the evening standard. tomorrow's front pages, starting with... "a bit of a cop out" is the metro's verdict on boris johnson for what the paper calls his refual "to apologise for his handling of sleaze", as video suggests that tory mp, sir geoffrey cox, was doing private work from his house of commons desk. the former tory attorney general earned more than £5.5 million for 10,700 hours of work on his second job, according to the daily mail, which dubbs him

the "mp with no shame". the i reports that the conservative chief whip mark spencer authorised sir geoffrey cox working away from parliament. the guardian says sir geoffrey skipped 12 recent votes on days when he was doing paid legal work. the paper also headlines tonight's major development at cop26 in glasgow — a pledge from america and china to work together to cut greenhouse gases. the times also has that surprise announcement from the us and china, below its main picture story of sir eltonjohn being given the order of the companions of honour by prince charles. the prime minister is urged to "take the lead to salvage the cop26 climate pact" in the independent. and the telegraph says the duchess of sussex has apologised for �*unintentionally�* misleading

a court over whether she had authorised aides to brief the authors of a biography about her. so let's begin... sonia, a bit of a copout which is a bad pun on the fact that boris johnson is at the cop26 summit and asked lots and lots of questions while he was in class code not always about climate change but also about tory sleeves. yes. always about climate change but also about tory sleeves.— about tory sleeves. yes, that's ri . ht. about tory sleeves. yes, that's right- that's — about tory sleeves. yes, that's right. that's because _ about tory sleeves. yes, that's right. that's because this - about tory sleeves. yes, that's right. that's because this is - about tory sleeves. yes, that's| right. that's because this is the second week of the sleaze and corruption scandal. these stories are ticking on as a result of that incredible u—turn we saw from the government last week where boris johnson and the government insisted but conservative mps vote at first to save 0n patterson's skin after a standards commission report found that he had egregiously broken the rules on lobbying on several occasions. then when it was met with

outrage this government decided to u—turn. that has paved the way for lots of stories about second jobs that various other mps have. and the mp that is really under scrutiny at the moment is sir geoffrey cox. he's on the front of a lot of front pages. with new revelations about how much he's been earning, the fact that he has been raking in huge amounts of money to represent the beady—eyed government against an investigation by the foreign office into corruption 7 bvi. ithink investigation by the foreign office into corruption 7 bvi. i think is quite questionable. very specific questions as well about whether he was doing this work, using the parliamentary estate from his office and also using pandemic related rules around proxy voting, it sounds like to vote in the comments when he was actually out in the caribbean for weeks at a time doing this work.

i'm sure we get to get into the detail of that as we go through... he is denied that his broken rules. there's more allegations in the i, actually. they're saying in fact what happened is the chief whip mark spencer authorise sir geoffrey to go and do that work in the caribbean instead of being in parliament. that's really interesting because if you look_ that's really interesting because if you look at sir geoffrey cox statement which he finally put out after a _ statement which he finally put out after a couple of days of pressure on his_ after a couple of days of pressure on his own — after a couple of days of pressure on his own website today he makes it very clear _ on his own website today he makes it very clear to — on his own website today he makes it very clear to things, one that he sought— very clear to things, one that he sought and _ very clear to things, one that he sought and got the backing of the chief whipped to be able to vote by proxy— chief whipped to be able to vote by proxy while he was actually away on business _ proxy while he was actually away on business in — proxy while he was actually away on business in the caribbean during iockdown, — business in the caribbean during lockdown, during periods where there were restrictions in place which made _ were restrictions in place which made it— were restrictions in place which made it hard to travel. and secondly, _ made it hard to travel. and secondly, that he sought the advice of the _ secondly, that he sought the advice of the attorney general on whether there _ of the attorney general on whether there would be a conflict of interest _ there would be a conflict of interest in him doing this work,

representing the government in the british— representing the government in the british virgin islands without you put that— british virgin islands without you put that two things out there on the chief whip — put that two things out there on the chief whip mark spencer did put out a statement saying yes, those mps who sought to be able to vote by proxy— who sought to be able to vote by proxy during lockdown restrictions did get— proxy during lockdown restrictions did get his — proxy during lockdown restrictions did get his permission. but he also pointedly— did get his permission. but he also pointedly said that mps should look to prioritise work for their constituents. that very much echoed the message from borisjohnson during _ the message from borisjohnson during the press conference in gtascow— during the press conference in glascow today and comments from his official _ glascow today and comments from his official spokesman yesterday. the mirror has official spokesman yesterday. tie: mirror has got another angle on sir geoffrey cox. the papers are all really collectively have been quite a go at him. in fact they calculate very is papers calculate earnings from all the legal work he does as five and a half to 6 million in total. the mirror is talking about him raked in a fortune raked at

taxpayer—funded home while claiming £1900 a month for a second home in the capital. although it says he hasn't broken any commons rules. that's right. i think this will have a familiar ring about it from the expenses scandal. i think lots of viewers will be incredibly puzzled and perhaps a bit angry about why this is still within the rules. the rules are supposed to be tightened up. what's happened here is that sir geoffrey cox bought a property in london and claimed quite a lot in terms of mortgage interest payments. so it was a flat that was bought was significant support from taxpayers. what he's done is he's now renting that out and putting the money towards his red and choosing to rent out another property in london even though he owns the property in london and is charging taxpayers for that second property that is renting out. i think you just read the details of this and you read the fact that it is within the rules was

up fact that it is within the rules was up i think it is quite extraordinary in the wake of the expenses scandal that this wasn't sorted out properly. if you own a property in london, particularly when that was bought with taxpayer support you shouldn't be charging taxpayers rent on another property. i think it is just another thing to add into the dimension. think it's important to stress it's not every mp who is doing this by any stretch of the imagination. at the mps who do do appeared to be making huge amounts of financial gain at the expense of taxpayers. we know what it sounds like from these stories, there are questions about sir geoffrey cox actually using his parliamentary office to do work that he was being paid by other people for. i think that will go down very badly with voters. , , ,.,, ., voters. david, i suppose it all boils down — voters. david, i suppose it all boils down to _ voters. david, i suppose it all boils down to a _ voters. david, i suppose it all boils down to a couple - voters. david, i suppose it all boils down to a couple of- voters. david, i suppose it all- boils down to a couple of questions, should mps be doing... getting paid

do you think that is? these are two superpowers really come into huge economies that pretty often don't see how you live. i economies that pretty often don't see how you live.— see how you live. i think it's really important. _ see how you live. i think it's really important. i- see how you live. i think it's really important. i would . see how you live. i think it's| really important. i would say see how you live. i think it's - really important. i would say the two biggest emitters in the world. i think this has come as a bit of a surprise with the people weren't necessarily expecting it. because going into the summer he had the us and china really swiping at each other. the us criticising the president for not even turning up at the summit. you china hitting back and pointing to the fact that president trump unilaterally withdrew the us under his presidency from the paris climate agreement and accord. there... it didn't look hopeful that we would be getting joint global leadership from the worlds to biggest emitters. this agreement has been reached which i think is really positive. i think it's may be slightly embarrassing for the government, borisjohnson

for the government, boris johnson gave for the government, borisjohnson gave a press conference today, there wasn't even a hint of this. so this may well have to get number ten by surprise, i think. may well have to get number ten by surprise, ithink. but may well have to get number ten by surprise, i think. but it is significant. and i think it's to be welcomed. the devil is always in the detail and with this week i think the really key thing is, we know that we haven't got enough commitments from countries around the world particularly the bigger it emitters to really make the dent into global overheating that we need. we are still on track for catastrophic global overheating at the rate we've got which commitment. so a really key thing for the summer be on this bilateral agreement between china and the us will be the extent to which the uk can broker in agreement for countries to keep coming back more regularly than the five year intervals in the paris agreement. because at the moment we just don't have commitments that go far enough and countries need to keep working on it.—

system, without a massive crisis in the nhs as well. really i think that this is the wrong way of looking at it in some ways because the way to address the care crisis in the nhs is to pay staff more. rates are terrible in the care sector for which is really highly skilled work. caring for somebody with advanced dementia, it's very, very skilled work. and we pay people a pittance for it. think the issue that we've got with staff shortages, it shouldn't come down to whether you are a jabbed or not making a difference in terms of staffing i think if we paid people properly. obviously in the short term you don't want to put staff off. the government has actually claimed that when it comes to the care sector there's not much evidence that is going to increase staff shortages, this requirement around jobs. it's a balancing act because at the end of the day it is dangerous having people who are vaccinated working with people who are very, very

deeply respected opponents, a well—placed contribution to england's innings. all building to a big finish. well, to an extent. this from mo, who scored 51, helped england to a 166 — moeen ali. new zealand started slow, but accelerated. devon conway missed this time, stumped. in football terms, and on goal. steve bruce enjoyed it. more fun when you're not the manager. driving the bowler. suddenly england could'nt cope. jimmy took over, six is everywhere. sustained by darryl mitchell, everything changed. remember a final settled in the last millisecond, this game ended with an over to spare and this world cup will not be england's. joe wilson, bbc news.

paris saint—germain has confirmed that one its female players has been arrested following an alleged attack on a fellow team mate last week. aminata diallo, who's been a psg player for six years, was taken into custody this morning by versailles police following an attack which allegedly left her team mate kheira hamraoui with injuries to her legs. press association are reporting that two masked men dragged hamraoui out of her car and attacked her. paris saint—germain say they condemn the violence committed and has taken all measures to guarantee the health, well—being and safety of its entire women's team. france international hamraoui, joined from barcelona injuly. arsenal got a much—needed win in the women's champions league this evening. they beat danish side koege 5—1, to keep up the pressure on group leaders barcelona. after a tight first half an hour in denmark, steph catley broke the deadlock with this brilliant free—kick. and arsenal didn't look back from there with 4 goals in the second—half. jordan nobbs rounding things off,

with arsenal's 5th. new newcastle head coach eddie howe says it will take a lot of hard work but that the team has the ability to stay in the premier league. he was speaking to the media for the first time since being given the position. newcastle are without a win all season and lie 19th in the league. in ten day's time after the international break, they face brentford at st james's park, when howe will take charge for the first time. the new boss refused to be drawn on the controvertial saudi—backed ownership of the club and insisted he took the job for football reasons only, but he says he can stop the club from being relegated. i'll commit 100% every single day to try to bring success to newcastle for everybody connected with the club. i believe we have the ability within the scope of the players to achieve that aim but it is going to take a lot of hard work.

it is going to take us a sacrifice and suffering in terms of the players giving everything that they have to try and commit to the objective that we need. steven gerrard remains the favourite for the aston villa job — but there's still been no official approach from villa for the rangers boss to take over from dean smith, who was sacked at the weekend. ex villa defender stephen warnock, who played alongside gerrard at liverpool, says his former team—mate may have a difficult decision to make. i think it would be something that steven gerrard would be looking at. i'm sure it will turn his head. this is such a difficult decision because you got two huge clubs and i think one thing that he would be desperately wanting to do will to be winning but he's also got the pole of the premier league and that big club of aston villa. and the opportunity to go to england and prove himself. andy murray is into the quarter finals of the stockholm open after beating the top seed,

italy's world number ten, jannik sinner in straight sets. murray said it was his best win this season. it's only the second time this year he's reached the quarter final stage of any tournament. he joins compatriot dan evans in the last eight after he earlier beat alejandro davidovich fokina. now to rugby union and exeter chiefs have been told their native american—style branding uses a "dehumanising stereotype". the national congress of american indians has written to the club asking it to stop using native american imagery. the organisation also complained about the use of headdresses and facepaint, along with tomahawk rituals performed at matches. more than three and a half thousand chiefs fans have previously signed a petition calling on the club to rethink its name and branding. sale prop bevan rodd, has been called up to the england's squad for the first time for their match against australia on saturday in place ofjoe marler. rodd was born in scotland, but has represented england at age—grade level. a senior cap would commit him to eddiejones' side. marler, who came off the bench in saturday's win over tonga,

tested positive for coronavirus on monday evening. wing alex cuthbert will make his first wales appearance for four years as one of five changes for sunday's match against fiji. ellisjenkins will captain the side after performing well in his first test match for three years in the loss to southafrica. full—back liam williams, scrum—half kieran hardy and centre johnny williams have been recalled in a revamped backline. and that's all the sport for now. hello. temperatures fell back closer to average again in scotland and northern ireland on wednesday. but milder air is coming back and the warm autumn continues because this week so far, 17 on monday was the high temperature. 17 again on tuesday. wednesday saw 16 degrees and there is another push of milder air approaching from the atlantic around the area of low pressure,

which is also going to bring the chance of rain and some windier conditions for a day and a night, anyway. this is how we start thursday morning. you will be quite chilly across parts of southern scotland, northern ireland in northern england. we will see some clear spells overnight, also the far north of scotland, so there is a touch of ground frost possible. this area of rain in scotland weakening with the cloud as it pushes its way northwards again. for england wells that will be a lot of cloud, mist and murk to begin with, some fog patches, poor visibility, drizzly in places and we will see a spell of rain pushing through northern ireland, parts of wales, northwest england on toward southwest scotland today is the day goes on with the fresh wind in the west. these are average speeds, some gusts of around 40 miles an hour developing on the western coasts by the end of the day. but with that, the milder air is coming back into belfast at 14 degrees. it will start to creep northwards across scotland once again with this area of rain. and as we go on through thursday night, there will be a few spells of rain running

into northern ireland and scotland, northern england, wales and a few patches of rain just starting to push a little further east across england as we go into to friday morning. it is a mild night, mild start to friday. let's take a look at that area of low pressure. looks to be working across scotland during friday but of course the weather from around it will be impacting all of the uk. doesn't mean to say we're all get to see a huge amount of rain. the further south you are to just be a few splashes here and there. closer to that low pressure system through northern ireland but especially central southern parts of scotland and england the chance of seeing the heavier dampers on friday for the early rain on the far north of mainland scotland the rest of the day looks dry. it's a blustery day across the uk again, it's another mild one. into the weekend this area of low pressure will move away quite quickly allowing high pressure to build in behind but that settles the weather down again. it will become mainly dry over the weekend, there will be a lot of cloud around,

sunshine at a premium regardless though, we have a mild weekend on the way.
