this is bbc news. i'm samantha simmonds. the headlines at 7.00 — a promise to help millions with the sky—rocketing cost of energy this winter, from the two candidates for prime minister on the eve of the conservative leadership result. within one week, i will make sure there is an announcement on how we are going to deal with the issue of energy bills. we are going to deal with the issue of energy bills-— energy bills. we are facing a renuine energy bills. we are facing a genuine emergency. - energy bills. we are facing a genuine emergency. i - energy bills. we are facing a genuine emergency. i thinkl energy bills. we are facing a - genuine emergency. i think anyone pretending that is not the situation is not _ pretending that is not the situation is not being straight with the country _ is not being straight with the country. and, by the way, across europe — three men have been arrested over the killing of nine—year—old olivia pratt—korbel in liverpool — one of the suspects was detained on suspicion of murder. eight—year—old twins — a boy and a girl — and an 18—year—old woman have died after a "violent incident" at a house in dublin in the republic of ireland. donald trump calls president biden

an "enemy of the state" at his first rally since the fbi searched his florida resort for sensitive files. and coming up at 7.30, a full round—up of the day's action in sportsday. good evening. the frontrunner in the conservative leadership race, liz truss, says she'll act within a week, to help people with soaring energy bills if she becomes prime minister. her rival, rishi sunak, says he'd target further financial help to the poorest. the victor will be announced as the next tory leader tomorrow, with the result expected around lunchtime. the queen will then formally appoint the winner as the new prime minister on tuesday at balmoral, in a break with tradition. that would usually take place in london.

here's our our political correspondent iain watson. with serious economic challenges to confront, you might want to invite anyone to move in here. this week there will be a new occupant of number ten. the favourite is liz truss, rishi sunak has described himself as the underdog. the winning candidate will have to tackle the cost of living crisis head—on. if it is her, liz truss said they will be swift action. i understand people are struggling with eye—watering energy bills, and there are predictions of even worse down the track. if i am elected as prime minister, i will act immediately on bills and on energy supply. but even under scrutiny, she gave no details of her scheme and few clues. she wouldn't say if the scale of support would have to furlough, or, like the other opposition parties, she would freeze prices.

——would out—do furlough. labour said neither candidate had eased people's anxieties over the costs they were facing. the two leadership candidates, liz truss, we have just heard from, cannot give a specific answer to the one question everyone wants an answerto, what is going to happen to my bills? pretty soon, the winning conservative candidate is going to have to stop campaigning and begin governing. if it is liz truss who walks through the famous black door, we can expect a substantial package of support to be announced this week. despite her decrying hand—outs, when she was on the campaign trail. she also says, within a month she will keep her promise to cut taxes and today she intended her intention to reverse the national insurance rise. it was pointed out that better off people stood to benefit more. inevitably, when you cut taxes, you tend to benefit people who are more likely to pay tax. is it fair? it is fair, we promised

in our manifesto that we would not raise national insurance. during the campaign, rishi sunak made it clear he would target help towards the poorest households and rule out immediate tax cuts. but today, thoughts also turn to what he would do if he doesn't make it to number ten. i will stay as a member of parliament. i finished this campaign on friday in yorkshire at home with my own members. it was really lovely, it has been a great privilege to represent them as member of parliament for richmond in north yorkshire and i would like to carry on doing that for as long as they'll have me. preparations are under way to welcome the new prime minister to downing street on tuesday. the question that cannot be answered just yet is how well—prepared they are to confront the cost of living crisis. iain watson, bbc news, westminster. a number of european governments

have revealed plans to help businesses and consumers cope with spiralling energy costs. sweden and finland have announced multi—billion—pound packages to support energy companies, while the german chancellor, 0laf schulz, has put aside £56 billion to help industry and give extra payments to pensioners, students, and people on benefits. so what are people here hoping the next prime minister will do to help them? 0ur correspondent mairead smith has been talking to people in leeds. rosita runs two cafes and a bar in leeds, employing 30 people. for her, the hike in the cost of living has hit hard. as a business, her energy bills aren't capped and she's watched them rise to a level she just can't afford. energy's probably been the worst, to be honest. i'd say this time a year ago, i was spending around 1,200 a quarter for electricity here. and i've had a bill that came in a week ago for seven grand. i think ultimately, if things carry on like this, we're going to have to shut. we will have a new prime minister tomorrow, what do you need them to do right away? we want to make sure everyone's

all right and people aren't too worried about having to either eat or pay their bills. but secondly, small businesses, you know, the uk is based on that and i think it's important that we either get some grants in, either vat�*s reduced or just cut completely. rosita's fears for her business are also felt at home. like all of us, she'll face an energy price increase next month when the price cap is set to rise to £3,519 a year for a typical household. and just up the road in the busy suburb of chapel allerton, people want action now. costs need to come down and the government need to take action and help support people. i want them to think about working class people, because we work hard and we can't afford lots of things. everything, everything's going up, so everyone's feeling the pinch. . it's a struggle when you've got children because you feel- like you can't do the fun things

you used to be able to do. - yeah, it's a difficult one. i wouldn't want to be a politician trying to figure all this out, because where's the money come from? i guess they're gonna have to pull it from somewhere else, aren't they? the rising cost of energy is continuing to push inflation up. it's currently a 10%, and the bank of england predicts it will keep rising. the stakes are high for the new prime minister tasked with tackling the cost of living crisis. mairead smyth, bbc news, leeds. let's talk to lord victor adebowale, chair of the nhs confederation, a membership body for organisations that commission and provide nhs services. from what i've heard, any permanent additionalfunding for from what i've heard, any permanent additional funding for the nhs would

be welcome, i understand there is a commitment about primary care. there are three things that we need. we need capital, investment in bonding buildings to meet demand. we need to be able to plan for the workforce we need, we cannotjust rely on foreign nurses and doctors, and we need to if proper support package. we need to keep the nhs flowing, because at the moment we have a backlog of people who cannot get into hospital because we cannot get people out of hospital into the community. those three things are pretty critical, we cannot have an either or situation, it must be and and. she cannot have an either or situation, it must be and and.—

have got so many hospital beds occupied, the energy bill will be an additional blow to already tight budgets across the nhs and social care system. all the other areas will be under pressure by increasing costs. it is worth noting that the pandemic alone has increased the cost of running nhs services by {4.5 billion a year, that has to be taken into account, to. so these are all real challenges, we have hundred 32,000 vacancies in the nhs at the moment, and that is why we need a costed workforce plan. so the interventions need to be systemic so that we can get the nhs back on a stable footing and delivering ready for what will be a very tough winter. ~ . ., , for what will be a very tough winter. ~ _, , ., , ., winter. when it comes to energy and deafinu winter. when it comes to energy and dealing with — winter. when it comes to energy and dealing with those _ winter. when it comes to energy and dealing with those bills, _ winter. when it comes to energy and dealing with those bills, just - winter. when it comes to energy and dealing with those bills, just give -

where you receive health and social, one of these changes will be around social care and the risk that significant social care providers can no longer continue in an area, that will put pressure on the nhs immediately in terms of greater demand on all fronts.— immediately in terms of greater demand on all fronts. thank you very much forjoining _ demand on all fronts. thank you very much forjoining us _ demand on all fronts. thank you very much forjoining us today. _ demand on all fronts. thank you very much forjoining us today. thank- much for “oining us today. thank ou. police investigating the murder of nine—year—old 0livia pratt—korbel in liverpool have arrested three men. 0ur correspondent laura trant is with me. we have had an update from merseyside police. the 29—year—old man has been arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender. earlier today, two other men were arrested from the runcorn area in cheshire. 0ne from the runcorn area in cheshire. one of those was a 34—year—old man from liverpool, arrested on suspicion of murder and attempted murder. another 41—year—old man was also arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender. both are in

custody and being interviewed by detectives. merseyside police are continuing to appeal to the public, though, for any information they might have, because this little girl, this nine—year—old, was shot in the chest. her mother was injured as a gunman ran into their house and chased another man on the 22nd of august. a number of people have been arrested in relation to this, but there is still the need for any information, so people are asking people to check anything like dash cam footage, cctv, orsmart people to check anything like dash cam footage, cctv, or smart door bell footage. now, this tragic merger has recapped of —— really captured the hearts of the nation —— this tragic murder. yesterday's derby between liverpool and everton, fans stood on the ninth minute and applauded her in tribute. she has touched the hearts of so many for all the wrong reasons, tragic and untimely death.— all the wrong reasons, tragic and

untimely death. police in the republic of ireland are questioning a man about the deaths of three siblings in what they've called a "violent incident" in dublin. lisa cash, who was 18, and her eight—year—old twin brother and sister christy and chelsea cawley were pronounced dead after being taken to hospital. mark simpson reports three people died and two were taken to hospital, all from the same family. they lived in the south—west of dublin. those who died were eight—year—old twins chelsey and christie. their teenage sister, lisa, also died. she was 18. their 14—year—old brother remains in hospital with serious but nonlife threatening injuries. that mother was in hospital, but she has now been released. exactly what happened to them, and why, is still not clear. many of the neighbours here say they were woken up by the noise of screaming just after midnight. there was, they say, a sense of

the second, thought to be 18 years old, remains in a critical condition. the met police has started a murder investigation after a shooting in west kensington. a man — believed to be in his 30s — was found with gunshot wounds and was given emergency first aid but later died in hospital. 960 migrants were brought to kent yesterday by border force and lifeboat crews, after they tried to cross the channel in small boats according to latest figures from the ministry of defence. more than 25,000 migrants have made the dangerous journey to the uk across the channel — one of the world's busiest shipping lanes — so far this year. food banks in the uk are warning that the cost of living crisis is creating a perfect storm — more people need help but donations are falling, and the organisations themselves face rising energy bills. many are also dealing with the extra challenge of trying to source food which can be eaten by families who can't afford to put the oven on, as megan paterson reports.

a charity set up to help families at christmas working all year round. we expect the charity to grow and demand to increase, but 52% is an awful lot. that has combined with the perfect storm of donations going down, so the gap in the middle is widening between what is needed and what we've actually got to give. since energy prices increase, there has been a surge in requests for items which cost less to prepare. we've got fruit here, anything where you have got a kettle, you have got some noodles there. soup so you can use that with the kettle again, and we have biscuits there as well. when it went out as a pilot initially, _ probably 20 boxes every couple of months. at the minute, we're looking at 280 boxes every month. we are trying our best

to make it so it is edible as it is at room temperature, or something you can just use a kettle with. we are trying to make sure you have got something between any support you may have from outside agencies. the charity is fundraising and applying for grants to try to increase revenue to keep these boxes filled. concern about the winter months is stacking up. my worry is that people can't cook a hot meal, that even warming something up is a stress and a worry to a lot of people. we have never had to take into account before that people could not heat it up, could not cook it. 9,000 families were helped last christmas alone. this year, the number likely to be much higher, with what people can afford to cook changing too. donald trump has accused president biden of weaponising the fbi against him in his first public appearance since agents raided his florida home to recover classified documents. addressing a republican rally in pennsylvania, the former president also rejected mr biden's claim that he and his maga movement were an extremist

threat to american democracy. both leaders have been stepping up their rhetoric ahead of november's mid—term elections. wendy urquhart reports. it was like he'd never left office. back amongst his supporters, donald trump was given a hero's welcome at this republican rally in philadelphia. he came out all guns blazing and he kicked off his speech by branding the us president an enemy of america. he is an enemy of the state, you want to know the truth, i the enemy of the state is him, l and the group that control him, which is circling around him, "do this, do that, | joe, do this, joe." that dig was in reply to president biden's impassioned speech earlier this week, when he called mr trump a threat to democracy. we must be honest with each other, and with ourselves.

too much of what's happening in our country today is not normal. donald trump and the maga republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic. mr trump also had a few choice words for the fbi and the usjustice department over the raid on his florida home, which he called a shocking abuse of power. the fbi and the justice department have become vicious monsters, - controlled by radical left _ scoundrels, lawyers, and the media, who tell them what to do, you people right there, i and when to do it. so, does donald trump have his eye on another turn in the white house? or is he just protecting his legacy? wendy urquhart, bbc news. people in parts of mississippi are struggling to secure clean drinking water, after floods contaminated the supply from a local treatment plant. the national guard has been

becoming more frequent across southwest england and south wales through the afternoon. in the sunshine once again, it'll feel warm. 2a or 25 celsius the top temperature. but those temperatures do ease down in the week ahead and with a low pressure staying close to the uk, there will showers or longer spells of rain for many. a promise to help millions with the sky—rocketing cost of energy this winter, from the two candidates for prime minister — on the eve of the conservative leadership result. within one week, i will make sure that there is an announcement on how we are going to deal with the issue of energy bills. taste we are going to deal with the issue of energy ltilts-— of energy bills. we are facing a renuine of energy bills. we are facing a genuine emergency, _ of energy bills. we are facing a genuine emergency, anyone i of energy bills. we are facing a - genuine emergency, anyone pretending that we _ genuine emergency, anyone pretending that we aren't is not being honest with the _ that we aren't is not being honest with the country and across europe. three men have been arrested over the killing of nine—year—old
