police investigating the disappearance of a children's hospital worker in south london have found a body in a park. scotland yard say petra srncova's family are being kept informed, although the body has not yet been identified. the 32—year—old was last seen on the 28th of november and she was reported missing five days later. amidst an economic collapse in afghanistan, the country's drug trade seems to be booming. it's long been linked with the production of heroin and is now also a major producer of crystal meth. the taliban says for the moment it cannot ban drug production because there are no alternative sources of income to poor farmers. our correspondent secunder kermani and cameraman malik mud—assir report now from afghanistan. they are one of afghanistan's most lucrative exports, but these drugs are destroying lives here and abroad. there is heroin and increasingly

now crystal meth. this, an exclusive look at where the meth is coming from. these drugs in southern afghanistan will be smuggled to countries as far away as australia. the amount in this room alone would sell there for around £2 million. this is how it is made. makeshift open—air labs in the desert under the noses of the taliban. these trucks are full of a key ingredient. traffickers here have discovered a common wild plant that can be used to produce meth cheaply. last week the taliban banned farmers from picking it, but they are not shutting down

the meth labs. this man with links to the trade says crystal meth is booming. when the taliban announced their ban on this plant, he tells me, the wholesale price of meth doubled and there are still warehouses full of it. this is another dangerous drug, opium, from poppies like these, most commonly associated with afghanistan. around 80% of the world's heroin supply originates here. before the taliban takeover opiun traders paid off corrupt officials and sold the black paste secretly. now they have been allowed to open up stalls in markets. we are driving through a bazaar where opium is being sold openly. much of it is then going to be processed into heroin. the taliban are not stopping drug production, in fact they have been taxing it for years, but they don't want journalists

seeing it being traded, that's why we are filming from inside a car. you call yourselves an islamic government and you are allowing drug production. isn't that hypocritical? translation: under the islamic emirate before 2001 the growing| and selling of opium dropped to zero. right now we are trying to find alternatives. we can't take this away from people without offering them something else. eradicating this is good for us in the international community, so the world should help too. for years poorfarmers have relied on opium to provide for their families. now, as afghanistan's economy collapses, without international support when water levels continue to drop, many see it as the safest crop to grow. opium destroys a lot of people's lives.

if opium is banned, what will happen to you guys and your families? the taliban regularly haul these addicts off to rehab centres, but many end up straight back here. for now, more drugs look set to hit the streets both in afghanistan and across the world. secunder kermani, bbc news, afghanistan. max verstappen has been confirmed as the new formula one world champion after a thrilling and controversial end to the final race of the season in abu dhabi. the 24—year—old dutchman beat britain's lewis hamilton on the last lap to win his first title, denying hamilton a record eighth championship.

the final result had been challenged by hamilton's mercedes team, but the result was upheld. our sports correspondent, natalie pirks reports from abu dhabi. it was billed as the decider in the desert, and in the afternoon heat of abu dhabi fans were split firmly into two camps. hamilton supporters were confident he was about to leave an indelible mark on the sport. there's no one else like lewis. if he beats max today and gets the title, he will definitely be the greatest of all time. but hamilton was up against an orange wall. what would it mean to you to have a dutch world champion? tea rs! red bull had the pole, but mercedes had the faster car. what a great start. a dream start, more like, but max verstappen was hot on his tail with a late lunge forcing hamilton wide. hamilton gained time. the steward said this was fair. by lap 13, verstappen�*s soft tyres

were struggling, so he pitted, leaving his red bull team—mate to try and hold hamilton up. but then a virtual safety car allowed verstappen to swoop into the pits, and on fresh tyres he chased the gap. red bull knew it would be tough. we're going to need a miracle. or a huge controversy. another crash meant a safety car and yet more fresh tyres for the dutch man. but when the governing body ruled that some lapped cars would be allowed to overtake the safety car, it gave max verstappen one last lap, one last shot. ..verstappen, who takes the lead in the race! a controversial ending was always on the cards. both drivers were in tears for different reasons. max verstappen is champion! well, that was truly unbelievable. lewis hamilton has every reason to feel frustrated tonight, but red bull and verstappen absolutely nailed it. and he is the new world champion. it's unbelievable.

i mean, throughout the whole race i kept fighting and then of course that opportunity in the last lap, it's insane. a big congratulations to max and to his team. in the last part of the season we gave it everything and never gave up and that is the most important thing. fans back home at silverstone were getting ready to celebrate, but were left disappointed. i'm shocked. i believe that win of lewis was stolen from him, and the championship shouldn't have been decided that way. i think it's meant to be lewis's. you can see he's the cleaner and better driver. but no sooner had the cork popped than two protests were lodged by mercedes. unlike var in football, this took hours... ..untilfinally red bull emerged victorious. he got a little bit lucky- with the safety car tonight, but he had to make it pay. and, you know, the strategy, | we didn't want it to end in the steward's room, we didn't take it into the steward's room. - but, you know, they've come to the right decision. - mercedes are appealing again, but verstappen is the champion. max, how do you feel?

not too bad. ican�*t complain! typical dutch understatement of the biggest night of his life. natalie pirks, bbc news, abu dhabi. that's it. there's more throughout the evening on the bbc news channel, but now on bbc one, time for the news where you are. hello there. it was noticeably mild today right across the country, but particularly so for england and wales. now we look to the northwest through this evening and overnight, this deep area of low pressure — small system, but very vigorous — passing through the northwest of the uk, will bring a spell of gales to northern ireland and in towards scotland as well. stormy conditions for the hebrides and the northern isles, perhaps severe gales for a time, some blustery showers. it will turn drier here by the end of the night, but for england and wales, it'll stay cloudy with outbreaks of rain certainly through wales and into the midlands. mild in the south — double figure values here, little bit cooler further north.

and that's how things look into monday. we hold on to the cloud for large parts of england and wales. we'll continue with this persistent rain as well for parts of wales in the midlands, into northern england, some areas pretty wet all day. brightest weather will be across scotland and northern ireland. a few blustery showers, wintry on the hills, will be milder across the south, single figures across the north. that weather front for england and wales clears away into tuesday. high pressure begins to build in here. it stays unsettled over the northern half of the country, lots of isobars and weather fronts. windy for scotland and northern ireland and some rain, particularly for the north and west of scotland. england and wales, closer to that area of high pressure, should be largely dry, some cloud around but also some good spells of sunshine. those temperatures will be around orjust a little above the seasonal norm. as we head out of tuesday into wednesday, we continue with that area of high pressure across the south of the country, so settled with light winds. still quite windy across the northern half of the country with further outbreaks of rain thanks to that weather front. so, with some wet weather, northern ireland, certainly for northern and western scotland, maybe a little bit

of brightness at times. stays windy here, lighter winds in the south. again, variable cloud, some good spells of sunshine, temperatures perhaps a little bit higher again — double figure values for most. nights will be much milder as well, frost—free for most of us. then, beyond wednesday, we see this area of high pressure start to really take its force across the uk. that'll push the weather fronts away from the north. it'll be sitting on top of the by friday and into the following weekend, so it means winds will turn very light. so, there's a chance it turns really great and gloomy by the end of the week, turning a bit colder as well as we head on into the new weekend, and we will see some problems with mist and fog.

hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the guardian's deputy political editor, jessica elgot, and martin bentham, who's home affairs editor at the evening standard. lovely to see you both. thanks very much forjoining us this evening. let's bring everybody up to date. i have to say, there's not a lot of variety. hardly surprising. most of the papers have the prime minister on their front page, and the telegraph is no exception. it says i million covid boosterjabs a day will be offered in an emergency programme to head off the risk of a new year lockdown. the guardian says borisjohnson is gambling on an unprecedented ramping up of vaccines to avoid imposing further restrictions, with the army to be deployed across the country. meanwhile, the sun describes tonight's address as a "sombre" broadcast to the nation. the �*i' reports the target to offer every adult a booster being brought forward from end of january to the 31st of december. the metro says more than half

i million boosterjabs have been delivered on a single record—breaking day, as the country races to head off a "rapid rise" of the omicron variant. and in other news, the financial times reports ukraine's new defence minister has blamed germany for blocking the supply of weaponry to kyiv through nato, despite us warnings of a possible imminent invasion by russian forces. right, excuse me for getting sniffy. i'm not sniffy about the news tonight. jessica, i guess we're interrupting your evening. you're probably still very busy on the paper today. shall we begin with your paper, the guardian? you've given borisjohnson the whole front page, and it's quite a detailed story. page, and it's quite a detailed sto . . , ~ ., page, and it's quite a detailed sto. ,., story. yeah, it feels like a pretty significant _ story. yeah, it feels like a pretty significant moment. _ story. yeah, it feels like a pretty significant moment. what - story. yeah, it feels like a pretty significant moment. what we're | significant moment. what we're saying is the reason is boris

johnson is gambling on this ramping up johnson is gambling on this ramping up of vaccinations, you would need to jab about i up of vaccinations, you would need to jab abouti million people a day. if you don't meet that target by the end of december, he calls it a title wave of omicron that could potentially get the uk, expecting it to become the dominant variant, but i think we heard there would be an announcement and thought what they were going to do and imposed further restrictions. he hasn't done that. what he is doing is saying how serious the situation is, and it does make you feel for a lot of the places like bars and restaurants. businesses that depend on the festive season which will make people very nervous. there is no financial support package for them because they're not actually imposed. because they're not actually imposed-— because they're not actually imosed. ., ., , ., ,

three doses does. therefore there is a big argument of going to get your booster, and also because people have gone back to normal when we were first offered the vaccine. it was our passport back to normality. we were in the middle of lockdown. in august and september, you will start to think about whether you're getting the booster. we have been living as we choose, pretty much, apart from a few extra testing requirements. therefore, it doesn't seem like a priority. i think now that the message is very much going through that people have to do this in order to avoid further restrictions, especially opening up to over—18s, meaning anyone can get it... they can going into walk—in centres from tomorrow. then it's going to make it make a big difference.—

what do you make of the ft's line? i think it's very interesting. it's particularly interesting that the companies listed in the ft story, it's about adding on these contracts with consultancies. test and straits is still every day — my test and trace. i was told it was a very large sums of money. this is more contracts. you'll find the other quite interesting thing i saw in the ft story, this stuff about travel restrictions going on. potentially for many more years, notjust test and trace. so, yes, it's upsetting in a way that they see this being necessary for so much longer, but also, i think i know rachel reeves

talked a lot about how government should like to revisit a lot of these contracts and look at how much money is being spent on consultants. it strikes me that the government might find itself under attack. it’s might find itself under attack. it's interesting, the detail was in the front page, but it's in the story inside, it says the number of consultants has fallen over four months from two and a half thousand to about 1864. a budget of £37 billion, and we are talking hundreds of... even so, that is a substantial amount of public money. perhaps of its nature, you could argue that the cheques have not been effective as one might ideally hope. one of the

other points that martin has come up with recently with the imposition of extra testing is a lot of people complaining labour included that a lot of pcr tests that people were taking from which you would use potentially from testing and recording infections, a lot of these tests weren't getting followed up. there wasn't a process that absolutely assured that if you had tested positive, you are actually isolating and all the rest of it. it's a tiny number of people to breakthrough. probably, it's less than— breakthrough. probably, it's less than that— breakthrough. probably, it's less than that with this variance because of the _ than that with this variance because of the infective nature of it. that was the — of the infective nature of it. that was the problem from the start. you only need _ was the problem from the start. you only need a — was the problem from the start. you only need a fairly small proportion of people — only need a fairly small proportion of people. a large number of infections doesn't take a lot to

a time. for the western isles, it will be a clearer... some blustery showers. england and wales stay cloudy. particularly into wales, and it will be mild. that's the set up for monday. stays largely cloudy, further outbreaks of rain were wales. best of the brightness for scotland and northern ireland. it'll be breezy here. some of these wintry on the hills. as we move through the week, high pressure builds in. winds turned lighter, but it means the sky will be quite grey and gloomy. because the problems for mist and fog by the end of the week.
