to scrolling and why she thinks there should be better protection for young people. an emotional goodbye from one of the greatest of all time. roger federer leaves the stage for the final time. the 20—time grand slam champion, plays his last competitive match and bows out from tennis. not a bad weekend ahead. a largely fine saturday with sunny spells and a few scattered showers. make the most of this weekend's whether, turning noticeably cool it next week. all of the details coming up. it's saturday, the 24th of september. the chancellor has defended the government's plans to boost the economy, after announcing the biggest package of tax cuts in 50 years. kwasi kwarteng's measures include two big changes to income tax in england, wales and northern ireland from next april, plus a reduction in stamp duty. opposition parties and some tory mps have criticised the decision to cut taxes for the wealthy during a cost—of—living crisis, as ben king reports.

here in reading and around the uk, people feel like they could do with a boost. also going up and interest rates are rising. across the country as a whole the economy has been growing too slowly. and the chancellor has come up with a very bold solution, tax cuts worth billions of pounds. he plans to cut the basic rate of income tax to i9p in england, wales and northern ireland next april and abolished the 45p deck read for those earning over £150,000. he will reverse the 1.25% increase on national insurance from november and cancelled the planned corporation tax rise due to go up to 25%. he has got stamp duty, they will be none to pay on the first £250,000 of a house purchase or £105,000 for first—time buyers. to find this the government will need to borrow £231; billion

this year. potentially more than £100 million a year in the coming years, an astronomical summit. an agreement hasn't said how much. it sounds a bit silly because you can't just it sounds a bit silly because you can'tjust magic money out of thin air. it is bad, appalling. why? _ it is bad, appalling. why? because it seems to be targeting people with loads of money, — targeting people with loads of money, scrapping the top rate of tax. money, scrapping the top rate of tax a _ money, scrapping the top rate of tax a lot— money, scrapping the top rate of tax. a lot of the people struggling at the _ tax. a lot of the people struggling at the moment don't even pay tax. it is a _ at the moment don't even pay tax. it is a gamble, there's no denying that but— it is a gamble, there's no denying that but at— it is a gamble, there's no denying that but at the _ it is a gamble, there's no denying that but at the end _ it is a gamble, there's no denying that but at the end of _ it is a gamble, there's no denying that but at the end of the - it is a gamble, there's no denying that but at the end of the day - it is a gamble, there's no denying that but at the end of the day if . that but at the end of the day if you grow — that but at the end of the day if you grow the _ that but at the end of the day if you grow the economy- that but at the end of the day if you grow the economy more i that but at the end of the day if - you grow the economy more money will come through _ you grow the economy more money will come through and — you grow the economy more money will come through and other— you grow the economy more money will come through and other taxes - you grow the economy more money will come through and other taxes and - come through and other taxes and therefore — come through and other taxes and therefore you _ come through and other taxes and therefore you are _ come through and other taxes and therefore you are paying _ come through and other taxes and therefore you are paying it - come through and other taxes and therefore you are paying it off, - come through and other taxes and therefore you are paying it off, so| therefore you are paying it off, so yes therefore you are paying it off, so yes it _ therefore you are paying it off, so yes it is _ therefore you are paying it off, so yes it is a — therefore you are paying it off, so yes it is a gamble _ therefore you are paying it off, so yes it is a gamble but— therefore you are paying it off, so yes it is a gamble but i— therefore you are paying it off, so yes it is a gamble but i think- therefore you are paying it off, so yes it is a gamble but i think it. therefore you are paying it off, so yes it is a gamble but i think it isi yes it is a gamble but i think it is that we — yes it is a gamble but i think it is that we have _ yes it is a gamble but i think it is that we have to _ yes it is a gamble but i think it is that we have to do. _ that we have to do. the _ that we have to do. the government. that we have to do. i the government type that we have to do. - the government type these that we have to do. _ the government type these tax cuts will boost economic growth, making everyone more prosperous and providing extra money for public services but critics fear it won't happen and that we will be left with higher interest rates, higher inflation and abrogate national debt that will be a for decades to come.

this is a gamble. a very fast growth done so, whether because of the government policies or for other reasons it will be a good thing and help us manage those higher deficits, but if it doesn't we're taking a big risk that on info that tax rises in future. and the pound for more than 3% against the dollar. shares also fell and government borrowing costs rose, but the government still believes that the dash for growth is right strategy. i don't think it is a gamble at all. what was a gamble in my view was sticking to the because we were on. we had a tax system, taxes at a year --75 we had a tax system, taxes at a year ——75 and year high, i since the late 19405, ——75 and year high, i since the late 1940s, we needed a reboot, everything, thinking about incentivising investment and critically helping people on lower incomes keep more of the money. they call it a mini budget but this is actually an enormous and unconventional plan to get the

economy moving again. and the big question is, will it work? ben king, bbc news, redding. 0ur political correspondent helen catt is in westminster for us this morning. helen, what's the political reaction been to this package of measures? despite what the chancellor says, opposition parties do see this as a gamble and they are particularly focusing on some of that analysis showing that tax cuts announced yesterday are benefiting the better. labour has said this is rewarding the already wealthy. the snp saying that it doesn't do enough for those on low incomes. and the position among conservative mps is pretty split, and a sense that is no surprise because we saw over the course of the leadership contest in the summer that the economy was

going to be the big dividing line so those who supported rishi sunak and thought his approach was the right want to do with the economy aren't going to change their mind overnight. so you have some conservative mps welcoming this, seeing this as a return to full fact conservatism, if you like. there are measures in at the most conservative mps lie, even those unsure about this as a direction overall but there are a number of conservative mps who are very nervous about doing this now, particularfunding it in such a long time. there also was concerned about measures benefiting the wealthier people. the former cabinet ministerjulian smith last night tweeting that despite many positive enterprise measures the huge tax cut for the very rich at a time of national crisis was wrong. for the moment, thank you very much. and if you want to know more about the mini budget and how it affects you you can find out more details on the website. voting continues in so—called independence referendums taking place in four regions of ukraine that have been seized and occupied

by russian forces. western countries say the polls are illegal and a step towards the annexation of ukrainian territory. in moscow, there have been rallies in support of the referendums, but there's also growing unease over president putin's latest plans for partial mobilisation, as our russia editor, steve rosenberg, reports. it was the moment the kremlin tried to show the people still back their president, and what he is doing in ukraine. within days, vladimir putin is expected to annex a huge swathe of ukrainian territory. there is international condemnation, but at home with the official picture is they trust putin. many of the people here though didn't trust us. when we asked the simple question, "why have you come to this rally?" there was a certain reluctance to answer, but

they had something to say on the subject of mobilisation. " the call up subject of mobilisation. " the call up as worrying everyone with relatives fighting age," di natale says. not vera. "i would be much happier with my son got wounded fighting in ukraine than dying of alcoholism here," she says. "fighting is a proper man'sjob." this is not a spontaneous display of love for vladimir putin and his policies. it is a highly choreographed affair designed to give the impression the whole country is behind the president. a lot of the people we have spoken to here today have been brought in especially from schools, factories and other state organisations. in ukraine, those areas occupied by russian troops, self—styled referendums began on joining russian troops, self—styled referendums began onjoining russia. the west has denounced the votes as a sham, a smokescreen for annexation by moscow. back in russia, more

goodbyes, more men are called up to fight in ukraine. there is growing concern here that the scale of mobilisation is far greater than the kremlin had let on. emotions are running high. "why have you taken our sons?" a woman asked this officer. when he told the audience that his own son isn't eligible for the caller, listen to the reaction. crowd groans, shouts. for the president, this could become a problem. vladimir putin once promised russian stability. now, he is sending them to the front line. persuading russians to keep faith in him won't be easy. steve rosenberg, bbc news, moscow. king charles has been pictured with his red box for the first time.

the image shows the king carrying out official government duties in the 18th century room at buckingham palace last week. the picture of the late queen and duke of edinburgh is in behind him. tributes are being paid to the best—selling author, dame hilary mantel, who has died at the age of 70. the british writer won the booker prize twice, for 2009's wolf hall, and bring up the bodies. in a statement, her publisher harper collins, said she died suddenly yet peacefully, surrounded by close family and friends. five years after he became the first person to swim around mainland britain, ross edgley has spent more than 52 hours swimming non—stop in loch ness. he began his challenge live on breakfast on wednesday morning, and covered almost 50 miles, to raise awareness of ocean conservation.

right now we are waiting for officials to verify his attempt and it will be deemed the record for breaking time and distance for the loch ness. now, this really is the golden ticket. a uk ticket—holder has won 171 million pounds on the euromillions jackpot, which could make them richer than adele or ozzy osbourne. it was the third largest ever price. only six uk players have won this amount in the history of the game. it is six 11 am here's louise with a look at this am morning's weather. she is going to bring some rain and sunshine but also a warning about

how it may tone colder. you have been listening very well! good morning. yes, it will feel like autumn properly as we head into next week but not a bad weekend in prospect, so if you fancy going out, tidying up the garden after the summer months, not bad. sunny spells, if few showers. it will turn cooler on the night with clear skies overnight. let's try to put more detail on it for you. we have seen heavy overnight rain in clearing away from the essex and kent coast. the front moving into france, so some residual cloud, may be isolated showers first thing in the morning. as we go through the morning, northerly wind, a few isolated showers pushing and off the east coast. they will move further inland as we go through the day. the showers will be hit and miss, largely fine with some sunshine coming through. for most, top temperatures of 12—18. as we go

through the evening we will keep some showers but they will start to fade. under clearskies some showers but they will start to fade. under clear skies overnight they are likely to fall away so it could be a shock to the system when you wake up tomorrow. the exception is the far north and west. some double digits but likely to be single because first thing in the morning. it comes with the compensation of a lovely start to sunday. lots of sunshine for sunday morning. we will see more in the way of thickening cloud and showers, and is as we go through the morning, rain arrives. it will push steadily south and east through scotland. around 13—16 degrees further south with bad sunshine perhaps 16—18 as a high. it will turn increasingly windy, gusty, and it will drive the weather fronts with plenty of showers as we go through the day on monday. monday could feel quite different. look at the wind coming from the north. a cold source for

this time of year, and that will push the showers at quite a pace but if you get caught and them from the wind it could be quite miserable for monday morning. nine—16 degrees is the overall high. the temperatures could really stay on the chilly side for a couple of days. the northerly wind drives in the blue tones. the exception is to the west. another front is arriving but lots of sunshine on tuesday, again you will need some extra layers in comparison to what we have been wearing of the last few months. more cloud and rain from the west. single fingers perhaps. low teens perhaps in the drier, clearerareas. perhaps. low teens perhaps in the drier, clearer areas. as we go through the week ahead, it will get milder but it comes at a price. a lot more in the way of rain. welcome rain for the gardeners and growers. they will be happy. we have been moaning quite well about not having enough of it.

6:15am. let's have a look at the papers and the front patches. kwasi kwarteng's massive wave of tax cuts dominates the front pages. the i reports that sterling fell below $1.09 for the first time since 1985 after the move, and describes the markets' reactions as a punishing early verdict on the chancellor's plans. "a budget for the rich" is the guardian's damning headline, describing the chancellor's package as the "biggest giveaway "since anthony barber's ill—fated 1972 budget". some labour mps have described the plans as a "class war". not all papers are critical. the daily mail celebrates what its headline calls "a true tory budget". according to the paper, business chiefs have welcomed the measures, with the confederation of british industry saying there was "no choice but to go for growth". and the times has this photo of the acclaimed author dame hilary mantel, who has died at the age of 70. she won the booker prize twice, first for 2009's wolf hall, and then for bring up the bodies in 2012.

just picking up on that story, i have a sense, and for those who haven't heard the news, she died of a stroke, we are told, aged 70. i have that sense this morning that she is one of those authors that i haven't paid sufficient attention to. listening to wise voices and hearing the tributes from other authors, what she did and what a writing represented, the tributes are remarkable. this is some copy. it won't look like much on—screen. these are individuals, peter kempinski, who had worked on a number of productions with her, among other things, said "you could make a strong case for saying she was the greatest living writer of fiction in the english language — she was without question the

cleverest, sharpest person that i have ever met. she had an awesomely impressive mind." and everyone who knew her well as saying the same thing, that this is somebody of real stature and i am left a little bit this morning thinking i have slightly missed out on this. and a people might come to her work now that haddin previously. later people might come to her work now that haddin previously.— that haddin previously. later we will talk to _ that haddin previously. later we will talk to kate _ that haddin previously. later we will talk to kate moss _ that haddin previously. later we will talk to kate moss herself. that haddin previously. later we will talk to kate moss herself is| that haddin previously. later we l will talk to kate moss herself is an acclaimed writer and sold lots of books. but is also responsible for pushing the women's prize for fiction. and of course, hilary mantel was a double booker prize winner. she'll be talking about what hilary mantel�*s legacy isn't what you brought to the canon as a female writer. we will talk about that later. a weird story, a complete change of subject, an odd story, so the hunt is on. if i read this

without explaining, the hunt is on for the remains of the first—ever yorkshire terrier which could be in somebody�*s attic. let me explain. this yorkshire terrier bread in 1865 by mr and mrs this yorkshire terrier bread in 1865 by mrand mrsjones this yorkshire terrier bread in 1865 by mr and mrsjones foster. poor ben died in a carriage accident at the tender age of six. his taxidermy body, looking at you, you are confused, but his taxidermy body was put in a glass case and then on display. then the last time he was spotted was between the world was in a pub in the north of england. the reason they would like to find him is not because, ben was obviously loved by his owners, but in british human history, they say that this is important as well, if they want to be able to trace the line of the

first yorkshire terrier. it was a black and tan terrier cross with a paisley one, and one loads of awards. the adoption home would like to exhibit ben. they looking for ben in a glass case. taxidermy. so anyway, if there were any thoughts on that, fine. as i said earlier, will be talking to kate moss about the death of hilary mantel, of course, author of wolf hall. we will talk about that later the programme. and later this morning we are reflecting, of course, on the announcement yesterday from the chancellor, ben is going to be out at a car boot sale for us today and one thing that were hoping to bring to the table is how it could affect people �*s lives. so that is very much part of the story we will tell for you throughout the programme this morning. it isjust coming up to 20 past six.

the inquest into the death of 14—year—old molly russell has been taking place this week. now, she took her own life after viewing self—harm and suicide content on social media. breakfast wanted to find out more about what young people thought of this issue, so we asked teenager claudia collins to investigate and make a film for us. claudia is the daughter of government minister damian collins, who's pushing the online safety bill through parliament. however, she thinks the government could be doing more, and doesn't always agree with her father. her film looks at issues which you may find distressing. i hate mirrors. i don't want to be reminded of how ugly and fat i am. ah, reminded of how ugly and fat i am. lot of it is anorexia, anorexia terms. ., , lot of it is anorexia, anorexia terms. .,, ., lot of it is anorexia, anorexia terms. ., , , terms. videos of people actively cuttin: terms. videos of people actively cutting themselves. _ terms. videos of people actively cutting themselves. my - terms. videos of people actively cutting themselves. my name i terms. videos of people actively cutting themselves. my name is| cutting themselves. my name is claudia — cutting themselves. my name is claudia collins at 915 years old. | claudia collins at 915 years old. i know claudia collins at 915 years old. know i am claudia collins at 915 years old. i know i am addicted to social media. i know content i am engaging with is

to the film review on bbc news. i'mjane hill, and taking us through this week's cinema releases as ever is mark. hi, mark. very interesting week. we have don't worry darling — eagerly awaited after all the stuff that went on in venice. we have blonde, which may be a marilyn monroe biopic, or maybe not. and catherine called birdy, a mediaeval tale with a difference. oh, i thought it was a biopic, but anyway, more on that later. ok, so don't worry darling, which is a new film by olivia wilde, who made booksmart, which i loved. florence pugh and harry styles are alice and jack chambers. they live in a kind of absolutely rarefied, dreamy, late '50s, early '60s americana, you know, glistening cars, mad men suits, fabulous dresses.

the wives stay at home and prepare the house and cook the meals and wait for the return of their husbands, who are out doing work which cannot be spoken of when they come back. and florence pugh's character seems to think this is idyllic and wonderful. and then, one of her friends and neighbours becomes suicidal after leaving the village, which they're not allowed to do, and going out into the desert and encountering something. and alice starts to think, "hang on a minute, this "isn't what it seems. "there's a conspiracy going on here." here's a clip. violet, where did you meet bill? we met on a train... to boston. yeah. yes, you dropped your ticket and you bent down, picked it up, gave it to you, right? that is. yeah. that's how margaret met ted and peg. am i right in thinking that that's how debbie mcintyre met her husband? yes, lam.

that's how they met. yes, that's true. i'm jealous. honestly, it's such a sweet story. isn't that funny? that's incredible. there are so many different stories that were told. we're told what we remember and tell. until we try to remember things that they want us to forget... ..like margaret. alice? no, jack. it's ok. i'm curious to hear where she's going with this. - frank is doing something to us. so, frank's played by chris pine, who is the sort of the eminence behind all of this, this victory, this somehow idyllic americana that doesn't exist and isn't real. and here's the thing — it's basically the stepford wives. the difference is the stepford wives at the beginning of the stepford wives, you think, ok, this you know what? is there something off kilter? you can't quite figure

what's wrong with it. in the case of this from the beginning, it is absolutely clear that this is an artificial world, that none of this can be what it seems, that somehow, they're in a bubble or an illusion. now, florence pugh works wonders making the character of alice engage you so that even though she's in this completely artificial environment, you believe in her character and you engage with her character. harry styles, he's fine. there've been some sort of cruel things said about his performance. it's ok. it's staggeringly unremarkable. the problem is that you very quickly figure out there's one of a number of possible scenarios that are the solution to how this is all happening, and then when it's revealed... when it's that answer... so, the film is nothing like as clever as it thinks it is. i mean, yes, it's a puncturing of the chauvinist dream of what the world looks like in which the man goes to work and the woman stays at home. we have seen that done many times before, much better. and of course, it didn't help that in the run—up to the film playing at venice, there was all this kind

of controversy about florence pugh not taking part in the publicity for the film and, you know, casting and recasting. i think the film could have got away with it if it was 90 minutes long, because it's a fairly... it looks very stylish. the production is terrific. it's you know, it's solidly made, but it takes itself more seriously than it deserves to. and it's a bit kind of like, yeah, i know it's yeah and oh yeah, that's what it is, you know. and i loved booksmart like you love, like.... yeah, absolutely terrific. this doesn't have any of that energy. florence pugh is brilliant, but it's a big movie to carry, you know, and it's even she can't get it over the, the problems that are inherent in the script, i think. 0k. all right. blonde, number two, which i did indeed think was a biopic of marilyn monroe. so, it's based on the fictional biography of marilyn monroe byjoyce carol oates, which is a work of fiction, but based on some historical fact. it's directed by andrew dominik, who made the assassination

ofjesse james by the coward robert ford, and it has a stunning central performance by ana de armas, who is absolutely brilliant as norma jean. marilyn monroe. the way that it plays her story, however, is not as a biopic, but as a horror movie. you know, in the past, you know, i've tried to sell movies, too, but it's not a horror movie. it really is a full on gothic psychodrama over cranked really in many ways, kind of very cruel and brutal. and it is it's a film about childhood trauma being revisited throughout adulthood. some critics have said, well, it completely makes marilyn monroe a victim and it underestimates her talents as a comedian. well, those things may be true. in the end, it's not about marilyn monroe. it is a sister picture to the assassination ofjesse james, which was a film about how fame can kill you. this is kind of the same thing, but with a the monarch edge. it's almost like the spectre

of marilyn becomes a possessing entity that at first propels norma jean and then possesses her. i mean, it is full—on. and i think one of the things that surprised people isjust how, i mean, it is a horror movie, believe me. that's the register in the same way as twin peaks fire walk with me, which critics didn't like when it came out. it was the best horror film of the year. this is a horror movie, has a great score by nick cave and borealis that leavens all of that, that gives it some heart and gives it some soul. but it's a gothic melodrama and then some. is it clever? is it hard? hard watch or it's not an easy. no, it's certainly not an easy watch. it's in cinemas now. it's on netflix from wednesday, but it's proved pretty polarising. and i can i can see why the thing everyone's agreed on is ana de armas is terrific. but i think i like it more than some critics because i'm a horrorfan and it is pretty horrifying. 0k. wow. goodness. and lena dunham. yes. so, this is an adaptation of current kushner�*s novel, which i haven't read, mediaeval setting, very modern sensibility. bella ramsey is birdy. that's a nickname.

she is a teenager. she's a vibrant spirit. she's rebellious. we first meet her, you know, rolling in mud and causing chaos. everything's fine until her father, played by andrew scott, realises that he's run out of money. here's a clip. disrupting cottage raisings. causing mischief in the village. and listening through doors i should not listen through. well, how has this happened? after all, you're paid - to prevent things like this? in essence, my lord, you have ignored me. you have spent properly and without censure. nonsense. i can't have spent so much. give me one example of... ..of an expense not strictly necessary for the survival l of my family. really? my tiger has arrived. it's dead. the travel was harsh from siberia, my lord.

just sleeping, but not breathing. perhaps some water? so, he bought a tiger of one of the essentials of life. so having run out of money, he decides that what he has to do is to marry birdy to somebody who has money into a whole bunch of beardy and horrible suitors. he doesn't want to. he loves his daughter, but that's the situation that he's in. so, what you have here is a really interesting coming of age tale that has many things going for it. one of them is it's not at all squeamish about menstruation. it is a subject that's right there in the middle of the film. absolutely. great. no problem at all, which, let's face it, in terms of mainstream cinema is not a common thing. absolutely. astonishingly, but it isn't. second thing is it has a young heroine who is smarter, funnier, sharper, more sort of self—reliant than almost anyone else on screen. bella ramsey is terrific as birdy, just spending time in her company is fantastic because she's this kind of force of nature. she, you know, she's, as i said, like a whirling dervish of a character. but she really manages

all the twists and turns of the story really well. andrew scott is a mixture of tragedy and comedy, as the father is. i think you saw there with the tiger scene, billie piper as her mother is so good. i didn't recognise it for the first few scenes that she was that she was in it. it's really well made. i went into this knowing nothing about it other than it's in cinemas now. it's on amazon prime on the seventh, and it's got that strange title catherine called birdy. but i thought it was great fun. it's a certificate and i think pretty much anyone who's old enough for a 12 cert would would love this. i mean, i'm a 60—year—old and i thought it was terrific. i thought it was really accessible and funny and spirited and charming. and i've not been a huge fan of some of lena dunham's previous work, but i think this is great. i think you'll love this. and i'm so sad i haven't seen it yet because even the trailer really made me laugh and that sense of her spirit really comes through. it's properly funny, but it's also properly empowering. oh, lovely. that's an excellent recommendation. thank you. so, best out.

you and david bowie, are you a big fan or not? because i'm a die—hard devotee. yeah, i like his flamboyance, but the music is not quite my thing, i'm afraid to say. moon daydream, which is this kind of kaleidoscopic portrait. it's got lots of fragments rearranged in different ways. but an interesting comparison with blonde, for example. i loved it. i should say that i saw bowie play live in 1978 when i was a teenager. you're just too cool! iam, iam! but consequently, i can't really be rational about all of this because it's like, yes, i know. you know, itried it when i was 13, but i think this is i think it's fabulous. i think the best thing about it is, is it has the kind of invention and wit that bowie himself had. one of the best things about bowie was he was on the one hand, he could be deadly serious. he could talk about art and philosophy. on the other hand, he's fantastically self—deprecating. and i think, you know, i well, i love the music, which i know you don't particularly, but there are enough it's a sensory overload experience. i'd be really interested to know

whether somebody who wasn't a huge bowie fan liked it. and actually, from that sense, i would be interested to watch it because he was a force of nature as well and he was so creative and i love that, i love that aspect of it. i can lend you all my bowie albums. you can go through them all and realise that you're actually wrong about it. thanks. yeah. yes, i'm quite busy. but, you know... and what do we have streaming and otherwise? yes. so, after yang, which is on sky cinema and in selected cinemas, it's a very affecting, low key drama about a family of slightly futuristic science fiction, about a family coming to terms with the breakdown of their artificial intelligence. android, who has been brought into the family. it shares themes with blade runner, but it's tonally closer to that. remember that film i talked about marjorie prime, which i really, really liked. and it's a it's a film about loss and memory and grief and ageing and all those things. well, this is like that. it's very ambient. it's got a beautiful score by oscar samir. and it's a very haunting, thoughtful, kind of evocative experience.

i said, it's on sky cinema and also in selected cinemas, and i thought it was really terrific. excellent, intriguing. lots of good stuff. really interesting week actually, isn't it? a good bit of mixture and something for everyone. which one are you going to see? birdy. that's that's my starting point. that is my starting point. it has to be, has to be. and that's it. enjoy your cinema—going, whatever it is you choose to go and see. we'll see you next week. thanks for being with us. bye— bye.

good morning. welcome to breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. our headlines today — the chancellor defends tax cuts, aimed at boosting economic growth, saying they're fair for all — we'll have reaction to the mini budget. on the financial markets — the pound fell to a 37—year low against the dollar,

over fears of recession and higher inflation. an emotional goodbye from the one of the greatest of all time. roger federer, the 20—time grand slam champion, plays his last competitive match and bows out from tennis, after what he called his perfectjourney. how a fear of failure almost ended gymnast max whitlock�*s career prematurely, and how his daughter is helping him overcome his worries. and the glitterball is up for grabs once more — strictly come dancing is back for its 20th series. we'll hear from some of the new contestants later. yellow morning all. not a bad weekend i had the most of us, it largely fine on saturday with sunny spells and a few scattered showers. make the most of this weekend's weather if you can, turning noticeably cooler next week. all the details coming up shortly. good

morning. good morning. it's saturday, 24th of september. the chancellor has defended the government's plans to boost the economy, after announcing the biggest package of tax cuts in 50 years. kwasi kwarteng's measures include two big changes to income tax in england, wales and northern ireland from next april, plus a reduction in stamp duty. opposition parties and some tory mps have criticised the decision to cut taxes for the wealthy during a cost—of—living crisis — as ben king reports. here in reading, and around the uk, people feel like they could do with a boost. bills are going up and interest rates are rising. across the country as a whole, the economy has been growing too slowly. and the chancellor has come up with a very bold solution — tax cuts, worth billions of pounds. he plans to cut the basic rate of income tax to 19p in the pound in england, wales and northern ireland next april, and abolished the 45p tup rate of tax for people earning over £150,000.

there will be none to pay on the first £250,000 of a house purchase, or £425,000 for first—time buyers. and to fund all this, the government will need to borrow £234 billion this year. potentially more than £100 million a year in coming years. an astronomical sum, though the government hasn't said how much. it sounds a bit silly, because you can'tjust magic money out of thin air. bad, appalling. why is that? because it all seems to be targeting people with loads of money, scrapping the top rate of tax. a lot of the people who are struggling at the moment don't even pay tax. it's a gamble, there's no denying that but at the end of the day - if you grow the economy, more money will come i through in other taxes and therefore you are paying it off, _

so yes, it is a gamble but i think it is that we have got to do. - this the government hopes that all these tax cuts will boost economic growth, making everyone more prosperous and providing extra money for public services, but critics fear it won't happen and that we will be left with higher interest rates, higher inflation and a bigger national debt that will be a burden for decades to come. this is a gamble. if very fast growth turns up, whether because of the government policies or for other reasons, then that will be a very good thing and help us manage those higher deficits, but if it doesn't, we are taking a big risk and that will involve either tax rises or public service cuts in future. and the the verdict from the markets was brutal. the pound fell more than 3% against the dollar. shares also fell, and government borrowing costs rose. but the government still believes that the dash for growth is right strategy. i don't think it's a gamble at all. what was a gamble in my view was sticking to the course we were on.

we had a tax system with taxes at a 70—year high, highest since the late '40s, and that was unsustainable. so what we had to do was have a reboot, a rethink, and what we're doing is pushing growth, incentivising investment and actually critically helping people on lower incomes keep more of the money. they call it a mini budget, but this is actually an enormous and unconventional plan to get the economy moving again. and the big question is, will it work? ben king, bbc news, reading. we'rejoined now by pauljohnson, who's the director of the institute for fiscal studies. cani can i ask you one of the things the iss, and why are you in the role of arbitrating or coming up with a verdict on what you have heard? iterate verdict on what you have heard? we are an verdict on what you have heard? - are an independent research

institute, a charity, very definitely wholly independent of everyone, and the only reason you are asking us is because of the work we have done over the last 40 years or so. we've got no official position, and so long as people like you ask us and trust us to see what's what, then we will carry on telling you what we think is happening. telling you what we think is happening-— telling you what we think is haueninu. �* , ., telling you what we think is haueninu, �* , ., ., happening. absolutely. so having got that established, _ happening. absolutely. so having got that established, paul, _ happening. absolutely. so having got that established, paul, you _ happening. absolutely. so having got that established, paul, you have - happening. absolutely. so having got that established, paul, you have had| that established, paul, you have had a chance to look at what has been said yesterday, and what a lotta people were saying it was an extraordinary budget, inasmuch as the tax changes that have happened. what is your overall analysis? this was a huge — what is your overall analysis? try 3 was a huge tax—cutting budget, relative to what was planned, the biggest in 50 years, that is a pretty extraordinary scale. the remarkable thing in a way is that that was done not in a proper budget, that didn't come with any of the normal forecasts for the economy, or indeed public finance forecasts, which is why we have

produced some which suggests to us that borrowing is going to be a huge amount higher than the office for budget responsibility and the treasury thought at the last fiscal event back in march, at well over 100 billion a year into the indefinite future. then as you heard, the scale of these tax cuts, along with the slowing of the economy means that unless something remarkable happens, we are going to be on an unsustainable path, in terms of borrowing, and at some point we are likely to have to have tax rises to offset some of these cuts, or some cuts in spending. there cuts, or some cuts in spending. are ou able cuts, or some cuts in spending. are you able to — cuts, or some cuts in spending. are you able to calculate tax revenue, the impact this will have on how much money the government takes in? in a straightforward sense, it looks like we will lose something like £45 billion a year. that's what happens when you have very big cuts to national insurance, corporation tax, income tax and so on. as you heard,

the government hope some of that will be recouped through higher growth. there is no chance that these cuts in themselves will create enough higher growth to bring more revenue in than that. of course it is possible that other good things will happen in the economy, and it is possible that russia will withdraw from ukraine at some point very soon, it is possible that the world economy will grow faster and that we can afford all these things. that is a risk, that is not the central forecast of what is likely to happen. if central forecast of what is likely to happen-— to happen. if you look at the vafious to happen. if you look at the various income _ to happen. if you look at the various income levels, - to happen. if you look at the various income levels, who i to happen. if you look at the i various income levels, who has gained most from the tax changes? if you look straightforwardly at people's incomes and these tax changes, the more money you have, the more you gain. in fact, because the more you gain. in fact, because the chancellor actually, there is one big tax increase the chancellor did not reverse and that is the fall

over time in the point at which you start to pay income tax. if you take that into account, in three or four years' time, the only people gaining from this will be people earning more than about £150,000 a year. and the more you earn above that, the more you gain. so if you are lucky enough to have £1 million a year, you are £40,000 better off. if you've got less than about 150,000 a year coming in, in otherwords, if you are part of the 99% with less than 150,000 coming in, then you are still going to be worse off as a result of tax changes coming in over the next two or three years. float result of tax changes coming in over the next two or three years. now we robabl the next two or three years. now we probably will — the next two or three years. now we probably will have _ the next two or three years. now we probably will have viewers _ the next two or three years. now we probably will have viewers this - probably will have viewers this morning who will remember the early 19705, and how things were then. and i think, and you will tell me the reality of this, that was when there was a tax—cutting budget on a similar level. now what happened next was things went badly wrong in the economy. so what is the

difference between then and now, in terms of this scale of tax—cutting? yes, you are right, it was 1972, the last time we had a budget with this level of tax cuts, when tony barber was chancellor, and things went horribly wrong. we ended up with inflation way up above 20%. and we face, ifear, some risks of that kind now because that was also a time of a limited price shock and a worldwide economic problems. we have talked a lot about the public finances, i think that is the bigger risk at the moment, putting a lot of extra money into the economy when inflation is already high. now one of the big differences between then and now is that we have an independent bank of england, and the bank is likely to respond to this by increasing interest rates further and faster than it otherwise would have done. we have this rather odd situation, in which you've got the

bank of england sayings quite explicitly we need to increase interest rates, slow the economy down to squeeze inflation out, and the fact that you've got the government saying well, we need to get the economy growing again and we are tracking loads of money into it. you have the governor of the bank of england and the chancellor pushing in completely different directions. i know yourjob is to analyse numbers and statistics. people will have heard kwasi kwarteng's interview, after giving the information about what he was going to do, and his quote, just write it down from a moment ago, i don't think it is a gamble at all, he said. now i know that you analyse statistics and figures, when you hear phrases like that, and you look for evidence as to whether or not something is a gamble, is it or not, what reflections do you have on that? ., .., what reflections do you have on that? ., ., ., that? you can choose your language here of course. _

that? you can choose your language here of course, but _ that? you can choose your language here of course, but this _ that? you can choose your language here of course, but this is _ here of course, but this is definitely taking let's call it a risk if not a gamble. we are in a difficult position, whatever the chancellor had done. the economy is in a position the like of which we haven't seen for decades, with the economy slowing and inflation rising. but the normal response under these circumstances i think, would be to do everything you can to squeeze inflation out of the system, because the last thing we want to risk is that becoming fully embedded. you also generally want to keep, as conservative chancellor since 2010 have been very focused on, keep the public finances under some kind of control, and so mr kwarteng is doing both those things differently. he is essentially saying i am sort of less worried about the inflation impact of what i'm doing, and i'm really not worried at all about the public finances. what i'm hoping for is that by pumping all this extra money into the economy, i will get enough

growth to sort all of that out. now hopefully that works. hopefully we don't have an ink —— an outcome like we had in the 19705, in fact that 1972 budget is seen i think universally is the worst budget we have had since the second world war. let's hope that this doesn't happen this time round, but i think it will be fair to say that there is at the very least a considerable risk being taken here. now the upside might be great, but the downside is pretty grim. great, but the downside is pretty rim. . . great, but the downside is pretty rim. . , ., great, but the downside is pretty rim. ., , ., ., great, but the downside is pretty rim. .,, ., ., i. grim. one last thought for you if ou grim. one last thought for you if you would- _ grim. one last thought for you if you would- we _ grim. one last thought for you if you would. we often _ grim. one last thought for you if you would. we often ask- grim. one last thought for you if i you would. we often ask politicians on this programme, how will we measure what you are doing, whether or not it is working not? i know everyone looked at the market straightaway, and the strength of the pound, or the weakness of the pound immediately. what do you see as the markets, i don't know, six months from now, or a yearfrom now, to get indicators as to whether or not something is changing? generally

supported rishi sunak, conservative mps who supported him, are unlikely to have changed their view overnight. there are some conservative mps who really welcomed this, and some who are very nervous about borrowing so much and doing this now. . ~ about borrowing so much and doing this now. ., ,, , ., and if you want to find out more about what's in the chancellor's mini—budget — and how it will affect your paycheck and outgoings — you can find more details on the bbc news website. this it is quarter past seven. other news to bring you, voting continues in independence referendum is occurring independence referendum is occurring in four regions of ukraine that have been seized and occupied by russian forces. western countries say the polls are illegal and a step towards the annexation of ukrainian territory. our correspondent, hugo bachega, is in kyiv for us this morning. where are we in this process, and

best shot, and give myself every opportunity to kind of ridge where i want to go to. it is always so interesting. max sat with us on this over 70 times. the most charming, lovely guy, then you hear the trials and tribulations behind the scenes as he has been smiling, performing, and yet those other thoughts of the same time. so thank you max for sharing, because will make a difference to a lot of people. will make a difference to a lot of --eole. �* . will make a difference to a lot of .eo .le, �* ., , , will make a difference to a lot of --eole. �* . , , ., people. and all the best for the next games- — people. and all the best for the next games. we _ people. and all the best for the next games. we return - people. and all the best for the next games. we return to - people. and all the best for the next games. we return to our i people. and all the best for the - next games. we return to our main story. it is 7.30. let's return to our main story now — the chancellor has insisted his plans to boost the economy are 'fair for all�*, after unveiling the biggest package of tax cuts in 50 years. let's get the reaction now from labour — we're joined by the party's deputy leader, angela rayner.

good morning. you would have been paying attention when the chancellor made his announcement yesterday. just give me the overwhelming reaction. what is your first thought as she went through the detail of what he was doing? i as she went through the detail of what he was doing?— as she went through the detail of what he was doing? i thought it was reckless, i felt _ what he was doing? i thought it was reckless, i felt even _ what he was doing? i thought it was reckless, i felt even those - what he was doing? i thought it was reckless, i felt even those at - what he was doing? i thought it was reckless, i felt even those at the i reckless, i felt even those at the top of the food chain were pretty shocked by some of the announcements, big tax cuts could at the same time as huge borrowing and public spending. and ifelt it the same time as huge borrowing and public spending. and i felt it was casino economics and i think the market has responded to that in that way. it was frustrating, because i felt like there were attacks on workers' rights, attacks on people trying to deal with the cost of living crisis and saying at the same time we are going to allow bankers bonuses to be uncapped so people can make huge amounts of money at the top, reduce the 45p income tax rate and ifelt top, reduce the 45p income tax rate and i felt that was the wrong priority and yet we are going to saddle the next generation with more debt. it saddle the next generation with more debt. . ., saddle the next generation with more debt. .., ., ~' i

making the choices around the tax cuts at the moment. we don't think thatis cuts at the moment. we don't think that is the way forward and we would be asking the oil and gas companies to pay a little bit more when they have made billions of pounds of profit, instead of putting it all on the national debt. we don't think thatis the national debt. we don't think that is the right priority. we have seen trickle—down economics before, it doesn't work, we don't believe it was to mimic the economy and i think it will make the next generation west. tiff it will make the next generation west. . ., , it will make the next generation west. , ., , ., west. of course the conservative government _ west. of course the conservative government has _ west. of course the conservative government has denied - west. of course the conservative government has denied this - west. of course the conservative government has denied this is i government has denied this is trickle—down economics as you would have heard in various interviews as well. when it comes to the history of the conservative party and what has happened, kwasi kwarteng has made it quite clear things need to change. this is a change to conservative policy. surely this is what the labor party has been asking for and pushing for? the what the labor party has been asking for and pushing for?— for and pushing for? the change is that it is even _ for and pushing for? the change is that it is even more _ for and pushing for? the change is that it is even more risky - for and pushing for? the change is that it is even more risky than - for and pushing for? the change is| that it is even more risky than what we have had before and this still doesn't seem to be that long term investment, so my announcement at conference around public procurement...

investment, which is what our proposal is around long—term investment and around skills for the future. the government haven't even talked about the skills we need in our economy. talked about the skills we need in our economy-— our economy. apart from the fact there has been _ our economy. apart from the fact there has been a _ our economy. apart from the fact there has been a significant - our economy. apart from the fact i there has been a significant package to help people, in terms of capping the price of energy, capping domestic household bills and business bills in equal measure. and business bills in equal measure. and offsettin t business bills in equal measure. inc offsetting that business bills in equal measure. sri'ic offsetting that in business bills in equal measure. sinc offsetting that in public business bills in equal measure. siic offsetting that in public debt whereas we have said we should be making sure... we set oil and gas companies... making sure... we set oil and gas companies- - -_ making sure... we set oil and gas com anies. .. s, s, s, ., . . ., companies... that would not account for all of it- — companies... that would not account for all of it. it _ companies... that would not account for all of it. it wouldn't, _ companies... that would not account for all of it. it wouldn't, but - companies... that would not account for all of it. it wouldn't, but it - for all of it. it wouldn't, but it would certainly help significantly reducing that debt we are putting on the future generations. bind reducing that debt we are putting on the future generations.— the future generations. and also about the companies _ the future generations. and also about the companies that - the future generations. and also about the companies that need i the future generations. and also i about the companies that need at the future generations. and also - about the companies that need at the most, so our proposals on business rates, supporting those businesses struggling the most would be more helpful. the total in terms of the help, it is equalling around 60 billion. what would be raised from the windfall tax would be a fraction

of that on businesses. so it is inevitable surely that the country would have had to borrow more to get out of this crisis, in terms of the war that russia and ukraine, higher production costs, higher energy costs, that was always inevitable, wasn't it? fit, costs, that was always inevitable, wasn't it? �* , costs, that was always inevitable, wasn't it? ~ , ., costs, that was always inevitable, wasn't it? ~ , s, , costs, that was always inevitable, wasn'tit? ~ , s, , ., costs, that was always inevitable, wasn't it? ~ , s, , s, wasn't it? a couple of things to say about that, — wasn't it? a couple of things to say about that. we _ wasn't it? a couple of things to say about that, we would _ wasn't it? a couple of things to say about that, we would make - wasn't it? a couple of things to say about that, we would make sure i wasn't it? a couple of things to say| about that, we would make sure we take some of the windfall profits that will offset some of that. there is also the medium turnaround renewables, making more self reliant, which the government hasn't invested in, that we need to do, and ensuring that the economy is growing for the future, which hasn't happened. for the future, which hasn't happened-— for the future, which hasn't ha- ened. ~ . ., happened. medium and long-term toals. happened. medium and long-term goals- that — happened. medium and long-term goals- that we _ happened. medium and long-term goals. that we target _ happened. medium and long-term goals. that we target where - happened. medium and long-term goals. that we target where the i happened. medium and long-term i goals. that we target where the need is most met- — goals. that we target where the need is most met- it _ goals. that we target where the need is most met. it is _ goals. that we target where the need is most met. it is not _ goals. that we target where the need is most met. it is not a _ goals. that we target where the need is most met. it is not a targeted - is most met. it is not a targeted approach and it is six months, so we have another cliff edge coming which we know the economy doesn't like shocks like that. we need a longer term strategy around investment in our country that means we are more self—reliant, so we are not at the shock of the global market and we are doing that long—term investment for growth for britain. we are not

seeing that at the moment. another cliff edge coming six months. business has waited far too long for the support offered by the government this week, and they have another six months and then they don't know what is good happen next. people love plain speaking, you have a reputation for that, so if i asked you about tax, if i take someone who is on, let's say £20,000 now, under the current tory tax regime, if labor were in power, they pay less tax? ~ �* ., to tax? we didn't agree with the... to be fair, tax? we didn't agree with the... to be fair. my — tax? we didn't agree with the... to be fair, my question _ tax? we didn't agree with the... to be fair, my question was _ tax? we didn't agree with the... to be fair, my question was quite - be fair, my question was quite straightforward, with a pay less tax? ~ straightforward, with a pay less tax? . ., straightforward, with a pay less tax? a ., ., tax? we said we did not agree with the contribution _ tax? we said we did not agree with the contribution of _ tax? we said we did not agree with the contribution of the _ tax? we said we did not agree with the contribution of the national - the contribution of the national insurance, so we are pleased that govan have reversed that, but the 45p tax rate, that is the wrong priority. i 45p tax rate, that is the wrong riori . ., ., 45p tax rate, that is the wrong triori . ., s, s, ., 45p tax rate, that is the wrong triori . s, s, ., priority. i was going to ask you about the _ priority. i was going to ask you about the other _ priority. i was going to ask you about the other end _ priority. i was going to ask you about the other end of - priority. i was going to ask you about the other end of the - priority. i was going to ask you - about the other end of the equation afterwards, i am trying to get a very straight answer.— afterwards, i am trying to get a very straight answer. they certainly would not be _ very straight answer. they certainly would not be paying _ very straight answer. they certainly would not be paying more. -

he was relieved to have come through without pulling a muscle earlier, glenn earlier, team europe's andy murray was beaten by alex de minaur of team of tea m world. murray won the first set, before the australian took the second. it was then decided by a tie—break, which de minaur won, 10—7. now football, and what a time for england to hit their worst run of form in eight years, because they have just one more match to fix their problems before the world cup starts. it was another disapointing performance, in a 1—0 defeat in italy, which means they are relegated from the top tier of the nations league. it was a stunning strike, from giacomo raspadori, which settled this game for the italians, but the england defenders had failed to close himm down. so england are five games without a win, their worst spell since 2014. they haven't scored in three games — that hasn't happened for over two decades, and they looked lost for ideas at times, and the side were booed by the travelling fans at full time.

next up, germany at wembley on monday — their last game, before the world cup in qatar in november. there'll be a record crowd for a women's super league game today, when arsenal take on tottenham in the north london derby at the emirates today. by lunchtime yesterday, more than 51,000 tickets had been sold for the lunchtime kick—off. the previous record was 38,000, when spurs hosted the gunners in 2019. now it's a huge weekend ahead in rugby league, with the season finale, and we could see history made, in this afternoon's super league grand final. saint helens are the reigning champions and are looking to become the first side ever, to win the super league title, for the fourth season in a row but standing in their way, at old trafford, will be a resurgent leeds rhinos side. highlights tonight on bbc one at ten

night at quarter to seven. we'll be back with the headlines at eight. now on breakfast, it's time for this week's edition of newswatch. hello, welcome to newswatch, with me, samira ahmed. the bbc pulled out all the stops for the queen's death and its aftermath up to and including herfuneral. did the coverage show the corporation at its finest or was its newsjudgment suspended for 12 days? although the bbc�*s reaction to the death of elizabeth ii had been planned for and rehearsed for several decades, the scale of its response still took many viewers by surprise, from the moment, more than two weeks ago when buckingham palace announced that her majesty was under medical supervision, the normal television and radio schedules were torn up with numerous programmes such as the last two editions of newswatch cancelled. instead, blanket coverage was provided, often on several bbc channels at the same time of the queen's demise,

the possession of her coffin and the various ceremonies and royal trips that followed, culminating in monday's broadcast of the funeral. a few moments ago, buckingham palace announced the death of her majesty queen elizabeth ii. the palace has just issued this statement, it says the queen died peacefully at balmoral this afternoon. there were flowers to inspect, the first of what are likely to be many thousands of personal attributes left here and at the other royal residences. then the king made his way into buckingham palace, for nearly 200 years the headquarters of the british monarchy, to begin work. they have been turning up in their thousands, morning, noon and night to queue for the queen. another chilly start saw blankets handed out, along with wristbands, as mourners embarked on the ten—mile snaking journey across south east

london to the palace of westminster. the view from the long walk, recorded by thousands of devotees. this was not a crowd of world leaders or dignitaries, but of ordinary people, who came to say goodbye. there was praise for many quarters for the technical and editorial quality of the output, with libby wilson writing on monday... others picked out the live streaming of the queen's lying in state at westminster hall for a particular praise. stefan was one of them, e—mailing a huge thank you...

elsewhere, though, there was commentary from presenters during some of the live events of the past fortnight. a lot of commentary. the queen is borne to the abbey, where she was married in 1947, crowned in 1953, where she attended royal weddings and funerals. the music already sounding through the historic cathedral, the reverend callum mcleod the minister of saint giles will be conducting the service. lynn ridgway contacted us last week to say... this was echoed on monday,

the day of the funeral. two of the many viewers who contacted us over the past couple of weeksjoin me now. with me in the studio is richard burgess, interim senior controller of news content for bbc news. richard, first, at these particular moments of music and ceremony immediately around the coffin going in, people arriving, the music starting. many people felt that the bbc commentary got it wrong and was too obtrusive. can you understand that? ithink, actually, you know, we made quite a play out of not doing too much commentary. huw edwards actually said it on the programme itself, that we were going to allow a lots of the proceedings to speak for themselves, really.

there were such amazing pictures and amazing sound throughout the day. but there is a place i think also for commentary, just to provide context and information and to bring the feel of the event even closer for audiences. you understand why some people perhaps thought the bbc got it wrong on some of that? i think these are always judgements, aren't they? and people will have different views on them, and if you are doing commentary on events, you're making a judgment on a live broadcast as it goes along. i thought in the main the commentary was respectful and got it right. let's hear what our viewers want to talk about. susan, tell us why you contacted us. what was your concern about the coverage? i realise that a death of the monarch has not happened during the era of television before in this country, and so it is probably difficult to know how to play it, but what perturbed me was the length of time that was devoted in the news section of broadcasting to the queen's death and funeral arrangements, to the exclusion, virtually, of every other topic.

i found this extremely puzzling. fair enough, the first day, the first two days, yes, it was an overwhelming shock for people. i kept on expecting a section to be announced, "in other news", because they were vital things going on in the world such as the energy crisis, war in ukraine, natural disasters in pakistan, but we heard nothing, even up until monday and tuesday, and then a little bit crept in, and i felt this was excessive. andrea, what about you? i absolutely agree. my thoughts were exactly the same as susan's. - that's why i wrote in. as an example, on friday the 16th, i the six o'clock news lasted an hour, and there was less than 15 minutes devoted to other news and sport, i the rest of it was devoted to royal events and various coverages - associated with that.

ok, thank you. that's a very specific concern. why, so many days after, was there not a better balance with the scale of news that was going on in the world? well, ithink, you know, this was a major news story. there's no question about that. i think we were reflecting the overwhelming interest of our audience, and we saw that, in terms of the audience figures that came to us online, and you can see it in the television figures, more than 30 million watching the funeral. there were events going on in the days after the death that we needed to report on, but, you know, we did report on other news as well. the concern was proportion, wasn't it? it was such a small proportion of bulletins, days after. not always. i mean, we lead with ukraine story, which obviously developed significantly during this period, certainly at least on one day, and we had our international editor, jeremy bowen, providing explanation on that story and analysis. but, you know, the truth is the overwhelming story of those

days was the queen's death and the reaction to her death around the uk and the world. susan, you had a specific concern about the tone and the kind of emotional approach of interviews, didn't you? yes. lam, in fact, a reasonable monarchist, for various reasons, but emotion doesn't really come into my preference. i would prefer to live under a monarchy than a republic. it's not based on emotion, its based on appreciation of history and continuity and things like that. i felt there was too much emphasis, whenever people were interviewed, on how they felt, trying to get emotion out of the situation. and i don't always think this is healthy or particularly interesting or helpful. andrea, you raised a question about the coverage of the queue, didn't you? yes, because i think it's very- newsworthy that there was a queue of that extraordinary length, i that definitely deserves to be

reported in the news, _ but i don't think that we needed to ask so many people - in the queue to be interviewed and ask their opinion. to me, that is not news. that's just people's opinions. there should have been more actual news about the good things - going on in the world. pakistan wasn't mentioned, again, for instance, - for quite a number of days. as far as i am aware, - the bbc hasn't even mentioned the brazilian elections that are coming up in october. | now, if bolsonaro gets in again as president, i this will have serious consequences for the rain forest, _ and therefore the planet. i don't know why that i hasn't been mentioned, for instance, by bbc. on the television news. andrea, again, going back to the issue about proportion, which is clearly a big concern for some viewers. overall, it seems there are those who felt that the bbc�*s tone, perhaps especially over the course of this period, had a hint of north korea about it,

overly mournful, with republican sentiment almost entirely absent from the airwaves. in that sense, it was hardly impartial. i don't think we were overly mournful. i think, you know, as the news broke, you know, it's important to have the right tone, and i think we need to be respectful and reflect what a lot of the audiences were feeling, which was shock and sadness. a degree of remembrance, as time goes on. i think the tone then develops and evolves in the days afterwards and i think it became a more news type coverage. i don't accept that we were north korea. you might not be surprised to hear that, samira, you know, i think we did interrogate, you know, serious questions around the monarchy and empire and colonialism with our reporters around the world. including, you know, nada tawfik, speaking injamaica, to a lot of young people there with a lot of sceptical views. we reflected sceptical views in this country as well.

but i think overwhelmingly, and what we have seen and heard from our audiences is that this was a time to remember a queen, to remember somebody who had been a major part of uk life and to do that in a way that, you know, reflected all the emotions that the audience were feeling. richard, thank you. thank especially to our viewers, susan and andrea. thank you both. thank you for all your comments this week. if you want to share your opinions about what you see or hear on bbc news on tv, radio, online and social media, e—mail us... or you can find us on twitter... you can call us... and do have a look at previous interviews on our website. that's all from us and we will be back to hear your thoughts about bbc news coverage again next week. goodbye.

and higher inflation. good morning. after the chancellor revealed the biggest tax cuts in decades, we have come to london's biggest car—boot sale to find our people here make of the changes and how much they think it will help them with the rising cost of living. history could be made today on the final day of the rugby league season with st helens attempting to win four super league titles on the trot when they face leeds rhinos later. we'll talk to singer songwriter lewis capaldi about his new single, and his unforgettable new video. good morning. nota bad good morning. not a bad weekend ahead for most of us. a largely fine saturday with sunny spells and a few scattered showers. make the most of this we can's weather if you can, turning noticeably cooler as we head into next week. all the details

coming up. it's saturday, the 24th of september. our main story. the chancellor has defended the government's plans to boost the economy, after announcing the biggest package of tax cuts in 50 years. kwasi kwarteng's measures include two big changes to income tax in england, wales and northern ireland from next april — plus a reduction in stamp duty. the institute for fiscal studies says the chancellor's mini budget could leave most income taxpayers worse off — a point echoed by labour's angela raynor on this show this morning. ben king reports. here in reading and around the uk, people feel like they could do with a boost. bills are going up and interest rates are rising. across the country as a whole, the economy has been growing too slowly. the chancellor has come up with a very bold solution, tax cuts worth billions of pounds. he plans to cut

the basic rate of income tax to 19p and the pound in england, wales and northern ireland next april and abolish the 45p rate of tack for people earning over £150,000. he will reverse the 1.25% increase in national insurance in november and cancel a planned rise in corporation tax paid on company profits that was due to go up to 25%. he has cut stamp duty, there will be none to pay on the first £250,000 of a house purchase and to fund this, the government will need to borrow £234 billion this year. potentially more than 100 million a year in coming years, an astronomical sum and the government hasn't said how much. it sounds a bit silly because you cannot just sounds a bit silly because you cannotjust magic money out of thin air. it cannot 'ust magic money out of thin air. . cannot 'ust magic money out of thin air. , :, , wh cannot 'ust magic money out of thin are— why is - air. it is bad, appalling. why is that question-macro _ air. it is bad, appalling. why is that question-macro it - air. it is bad, appalling. why is that question-macro it seems| air. it is bad, appalling. why is. that question-macro it seems to air. it is bad, appalling. why is- that question-macro it seems to be that question—macro it seems to be targeted at people with loads of money, scrapping the top rate of tax, a lot of the people who are

remind us of what they've been saying. it has, opposition parties, we have just heard angela rayner they criticising those measures which were designed, were helping the better. other opposition parties have done that, the liberal democrats and the snp said not enough has been done for people on lower incomes. but that is notjust a political viewpoint, some think tanks have been doing analysis and have found the tax cuts that were announced yesterday do significantly benefit the better off more. one of

those things was the institute for fiscal studies, its director is paul johnson and this is what he told the programme earlier. in johnson and this is what he told the programme earlier.— programme earlier. in three or four ears' programme earlier. in three or four years' time. — programme earlier. in three or four years' time. the — programme earlier. in three or four years' time, the only _ programme earlier. in three or four years' time, the only people - programme earlier. in three or four| years' time, the only people gaining from this— years' time, the only people gaining from this will be people earning more _ from this will be people earning more than 150,000 a year. the more you earn— more than 150,000 a year. the more you earn above that, the more you gain, _ you earn above that, the more you gain so— you earn above that, the more you gain so if— you earn above that, the more you gain, so if you are lucky enough to have _ gain, so if you are lucky enough to have £1_ gain, so if you are lucky enough to have £1 million a year, you are £40,000 _ have £1 million a year, you are £40,000 better off and if you have less than— £40,000 better off and if you have less than £150,000 coming in, if you are part _ less than £150,000 coming in, if you are part of— less than £150,000 coming in, if you are part of the 99% of less than 150,000 — are part of the 99% of less than 150,000 coming in, you will still be better— 150,000 coming in, you will still be better off, — 150,000 coming in, you will still be better off, worse off, rather as a result— better off, worse off, rather as a result of— better off, worse off, rather as a result of tax changes coming in. there _ result of tax changes coming in. there have _ result of tax changes coming in. there have been some conservative mps who have expressed concerns about this, the former cabinet ministerjulian smith said it was wrong to make this huge tax cut as he put it, for the very rich at a time of national crisis. as a reaction to the overall mini budget, the conservative mps do seem to be split. you have some who are very

welcoming of this and they see it as the right sort of way for the conservative way of tackling the economy. they approve of the tax—cutting. there are others who are very concerned about doing that now and by doing it by borrowing much more on this scale. indeed, helen, much more on this scale. indeed, helen. thank— much more on this scale. indeed, helen, thank you. _ and if you want to find out more about what's in the chancellor's mini—budget and how it will affect your paycheck and outgoings, you can find more details on the bbc news website: voting continues in so—called independence referendums taking place in four regions of ukraine that have been seized and occupied by russian forces. western countries say the polls are illegal and a step towards the annexation of ukrainian territory. our correspondent, hugo bachega, is in kyiv for us this morning. hugo, talk us through what the results of these votes could mean for people in ukraine? the west has said they are

would be a flagrant violation of international tributes are being paid to the double—booker prize winner, dame hilary mantel, who has died at the age of 70. the best—selling, and criticially—acclaimed author wrote 'wolf hall�* and 'bring up the bodies'. in a statement, her publisher harper collins, said she died "suddenly yet peacefully" surrounded by close family and friends. five years after becoming the first person to swim the whole of mainland britain, ross edgley has finished another epic challenge. he has swum non—stop for 52 hours in loch ness. the extreme athlete — who began his challenge live on breakfast on wednesday morning, covered nearly 50 miles in the water with the aim of raising awareness of ocean conservation. once verified by officials, ross' attempt will break the record for time and distance swum in loch ness. he has swum non—stop for 52 hours in loch ness.

a uk euromillions player has won £171—million in last night's draw. this morning, thatjackpot winner is now richer than adele or ozzy osbourne. the prize is the uk's third—largest ever — just 16 uk players have won more than £100—million in the lottery�*s history. the time is 8.12. here's louise with a look at this morning's weather. it is quite a quiet weekend of weatherhead, we are seeing the signs of autumn, misty and murky stop for many this morning but it will be largely fine and dry. a few scattered showers around. we did see some heavy rain and that has been clearing into the new continent to allow some clearer skies to develop said the misty, murky conditions first thing. we have had stubborn fog across east anglia that is starting to ease. scattered showers running down to the north sea coming in of the east coast and they will

just push their way through westwards as we go through the afternoon. showers very hit and miss and temperatures this afternoon in the sunshine, ranging from 12 to 18 degrees. the showers will continue to ease down to the evening and overnight across england and wales, a good portion seeing clear skies. temperatures will fall away. northern ireland, north of scotland, more cloud here in double figures first thing for you tomorrow morning but under the clearer skies, we haven't seen temperatures like that for quite some time. that could be a shock to the system, but it will be largely fine and sunny for many on sunday. this cloud bringing a few scattered showers as we go through the day on sunday, more persistent rain arrives into the north—west gradually pushing its way into central scotland by the end of the afternoon. here, temperatures will peak at 16 degrees. we might see 17 or 18 a bit further south and east. the frontal system will bring some rain during monday, but as it clears more importantly, it is going to

continue to drag in the northerly wind we have been warning you about. the blue colours, as the cold air starts to push a penetrated way further south. on monday, there is a weather front easing away first thing, the wind continuing to strengthen. blustery day on monday. that will make it feel even cooler still. a few scattered showers but there is temperatures struggling a little bit. we are looking at mid teens as a maximum on monday, perhaps single figures across parts of eastern scotland. that cooler feel continues tuesday into wednesday and also accompanied by some showers. autumn proper as we move into the week ahead. cool and sherry for all of us. back to you two. the inquest into the death of 14—year—old molly russell has been taking place this week — she took her own life after viewing self—harm and suicide content on social media. breakfast wanted to find out more about what young people thought of this issue, so we asked teenager

self—harm one and you shared it, may be you shared it, maybe you liked it or maybe you've just looked at it longer. an algorithm can then tell you are engaged with that and it makes it more likely that you will be shown those images again. i cannot say, young people are not actively searching for this. that is what happened to alicia. she used to be miss england. what kind of stuff where you seen? it be miss england. what kind of stuff where you seen?— be miss england. what kind of stuff where you seen? it went from fitness tosts to where you seen? it went from fitness posts to healthy _ where you seen? it went from fitness posts to healthy but _ where you seen? it went from fitness posts to healthy but then _ where you seen? it went from fitness posts to healthy but then from - where you seen? it went from fitness posts to healthy but then from that l posts to healthy but then from that posts to healthy but then from that post it takes you to hashtags that promote anorexia, things about self—harm and then itjust led to suicide. it got progressively worse. everyone has different reasons for their mental health state, but i do think it plays a huge part. that is

a resurgent leeds rhinos are taking on the reigning champions st helens, whose players are looking to cement their names in history, by lifting the trophy for the, fourth consecutive year. there will be highlights tonight on bbc one from 10.50, you can listen to 5 live. and what we were just talking about... a packed 02 arena. with 17,000 fans chanting the name of roger federer, it really was the perfect send—off for roger federer. with his familyjoining him on court at the end too, the most graceful, elegant player the men's game has ever seen, finally bid his farewell at the age of 41 in emotional scenes in london last night. the 20—time grand slam winner teamed

up with great friend and rival rafa nadalfor team europe against jack sock and frances tiafoe, of team world, in the laver cup. the americans eventually won, but the evening wasn't really about them. federerjoked afterwards that he was relieved to have come through the match without pulling a muscle of calf. now football and what a time for england to hit their worst run of form in eight years. because they have just one more match to fix their problems before the world cup starts. it was another disapointing performance in a 1—0 defeat in italy, which means they are relegated from the top tier of the nations league. the england defenders gave italy's giacomo raspadori too much space. even if his shot was stunning. and that settled the game, but england are now five matches without a win. their worst spell since 2014, and they haven't scored in three games. that hasn't happened for over two decades. they looked lost for ideas at times. the side were booed by the travelling fans at full—time. next up, germany at wembley on monday — their last game before the world cup in qatar in november. we're a strong group mentally, so i don't think it will affect our confidence. i think we have great belief in what we're doing. we still have great belief in everyone around who's

in the dressing room. so of course it won't affect our confidence. we will go into the game on monday with confidence that we can go and win the game. i think tonight is built on fine margins, and like i said, a little bit more quality shown in the final third and we could win the game comfortably. northern ireland will hope to improve upon their dreadful record in the competition when they host kosovo this evening. they haven't yet won a game in the nations league as yet. but have a great chance of ending that run against kosovo, who are ranked 42 places below them. after tonight, northern ireland face greece in athens on tuesday. there'll be a record crowd for a women's super league game today, when arsenal take on tottenham in the north london derby at the emirates today. by lunchtime yesterday, more than 51,000 tickets had been sold for the lunchtime kick—off. the previous record was 38,000 when spurs hosted

the gunners in 2019. onto cricket, and england are now 2—1 up in their historic t20 series with pakistan. they won the third game in karachi, thanks to a brilliant 81 not out from yorkshire's harry brook. england set pakistan, another huge target of 222, but this time, unlike the day before, they couldn't reach it, falling well short and england take the lead, in the seven match series. that's a —— that's a about it but i have been chatting to our next guest. lewis will be in and just as second. if you haven't seen his video yet, it will make sense. three years after lewis capaldi first raced up the uk charts with his hit song 'someone you loved', the scottish singer songwriter is back with brand—new music. he released the track 'forget me' earlier this month and the music video hilariously plays homage to wham's 'club tropicana'.

will help them with the rising cost of living. ifear of will help them with the rising cost of living. i fear of failure almost ended max whitlock�*s gymnasts career prematurely and how his daughter is helping him overcome his worries. history could be made, on the final day of the rugby league seaoson with reigning champions st helens trying to become the first team ever to win four super league titles on the trot when they face leeds rhinos at old trafford. strictly come dancing is back for its 20th series. we will be hearing from some of the new contestants a little later on. good morning, not a bad weekend ahead for most of us, a few scattered showers and sunny spells. make the most of the weather this weekend as it is turning noticeably cooler as we head into next week. all of the details coming up shortly.

it's saturday, the 24th of september. the chancellor has defended the government's plans to boost the economy, after announcing the biggest package of tax cuts in 50 years. kwasi kwarteng's measures include two big changes to income tax in england, wales and northern ireland from next april — plus a reduction in stamp duty. the changes have been criticised by many opposition mps — including labour's deputy leader, angela rayner, who told breakfast the cuts would mainly benefit high earners. ben king reports. here in reading and around the uk, people feel like they could do with a boost. bills are going up and interest rates are rising. across the country as a whole, the economy has been growing too slowly. the chancellor has come up with a very bold solution, tax cuts worth billions of pounds. he plans to cut the basic rate of income tax to 19p and the pound in england,

wales and northern ireland next april and abolish the 45p top rate of tack for people earning over £150,000. he will reverse the 1.25% increase in national insurance in november and cancel a planned rise in corporation tax paid on company profits that was due to go up to 25%. he has cut stamp duty, there will be none to pay on the first £250,000 of a house purchase and to fund this, the government will need to borrow £231; billion this year. potentially more than 100 billion a year in coming years, an astronomical sum and the government hasn't said how much. it sounds a bit silly because you cannotjust magic money out of thin air. it is bad, appalling. why is that? it seems to be targeted at people with loads of money, scrapping the top rate of tax, a lot of the people who are struggling at the moment don't even pay tax. it is a gamble, there is no denying i that but at the end of the day, i

if you grow the economy, more money will come i in through other taxes so therefore you are paying it off. _ it is a gamble but i think. it is one we have got to do. the government hopes these tax cuts will boost economic growth, making everyone more prosperous and providing extra money for public services. but critics fear that will not happen and we will be left with higher interest rates, higher inflation and a bigger national debt that will be a burden for decades to come. this is a gamble. if very fast growth turns up because of the government policies of the reasons, that will be a good thing and it will help us manage those higher deficits. but if it doesn't it will involve public service cuts and tax rises in future. the verdict from the markets was brutal. the pound fell more than 3% against the dollar, shares fell labour says it is a budget that rewards the already wealthy.

when you are lifting bankers' bonuses at the same time sayng postal workers and rail workers cannot have a decent pay rise, people can see that and see that it is grossly unfair and it looks like the conservatives are looking after people at the top and are not really channelling that long—term investment, which is our proposal is around long—term investment and around skills for the future. but the government still believes that the dash for growth is a strategy. i don't think it is a gamble at all. what was a gamble is sticking to the corset we were on. we had a tax system and taxes that a 70 year high, and that was unsustainable. what we had to do was have a reboot, rethink and what we are doing is pushing growth, incentivising investment and actually, critically, helping people on low incomes keep more of the money. they call it a mini budget. but this is actually an enormous and unconventional plan to get the economy moving again. and the big question is, will it work? ben king, bbc news, reading.

our political correspondent helen catt is in westminster for us this morning. as people are mulling over what this means for them at home, the scale of what has been announced is what many people are talking about? yes. what has been announced is what many people are talking about?— people are talking about? yes, it is vast and it is _ people are talking about? yes, it is vast and it is a _ people are talking about? yes, it is vast and it is a very _ people are talking about? yes, it is vast and it is a very big _ people are talking about? yes, it is vast and it is a very big change - people are talking about? yes, it is vast and it is a very big change in i vast and it is a very big change in political direction from where the government was going on the boris johnson and rishi sunak. it is important that we flagged that up. while we have seen opposition mps today criticising or certainly over the course of the last 2a hours, been very critical of the tax cuts that analysis by a number of think tanks has found, it does benefit the better off more. you know, the government, their argument is by growing the whole economy, growing the pie, as they put it, everyone ends up benefiting. and chris felt,

worried about the way the conservatives were going when they were putting up taxes earlier this year, they are pleased with this but there are a number of conservative mps who are concerned about this, particularly doing it now and funding it through borrowing. so kwasi kwarteng says this is not a gamble, but some of his own mps think that it is.— and if you want to find out more about what's in the chancellor's mini budget — and how it will affect your paycheque and outgoings — you can find more details on: voting continues in so—called independence referendums taking place in four regions of ukraine that have been seized and occupied by russian forces. western countries say the polls are illegal and a step towards the annexation of ukrainian territory. our correspondent, hugo bachega, is in kyiv for us this morning.

how are these referendums going and what will the result of those, which some think are predetermined, mean? good morning. if you watch russian television, they are going to tell you this is a free and fair process, this is russia giving people living in these occupied regions of ukraine an opportunity to express their views. but we have been talking to residents in those occupied areas and they say that soldiers are going some forcing people door in some places, forcing people to vote. ukrainian have to vote. ukrainian officials have been saying that in some the to vote. ukrainian officials have been sayin has it in some the to vote. ukrainian officials have been sayin hasilgen ome leaving. i to vote. ukrainian officials have bee is ayin hasilgen ome leaving. i to vote. ukrainian officials have bee is very 'iasilgen ome leaving. i to vote. ukrainian officials have bee is very differentome leaving. i to vote. ukrainian officials have bee is very differentome a aving.t to vote. ukrainian officials have bee fair ery differentome a aving.t to vote. ukrainian officials have bee fair process. entome a aving.t to vote. ukrainian officials have bee fair process. the me a aving.t to vote. ukrainian officials have bee fair process. the me a avin are and fair process. the ukrainians are saying this process is illegal and western countries say this is a propaganda exercise, but the result has already been decided by moscow and that this is going to be used as excuse b russia to annex -arts an excuse by russia to annex parts

of ukraine. we had from president biden yesterday, saying that any annexation of territory by russia would be a flagrant violation of international law. and he said western countries would impose more sanctions on russia. but here, the ukrainians have been dismissing this process and say that the counter offensive continues and i think the fear is, that as a result of the so—called referendum, the russians may say, any attack on those areas will be seen as an attack on russian territory. will be seen as an attack on russian territo . ii i five years after becoming the first person to swim the whole of mainland britain, ross edgley has finished another epic challenge. he has swum nonstop for 52 hours in loch ness. the extreme athlete — who began his challenge live on breakfast on wednesday morning — covered nearly 50 miles in the water

with the aim of raising awareness of ocean conservation. once verified by officials, ross' attempt will break the record for time and distance swum in loch ness. that is an extraordinary achievement. i hope he is feeling all right today, taking a bit of a moment and eating a lot! he he moment and eating a lot! he be exhausted. a uk euromillions player has won £171—million in last night's draw — this morning, thatjackpot winner is now richer than adele or ozzy osbourne. the prize is the uk's third—largest ever — just 16 uk players have won more than £100—million in the lottery�*s history. he's the most successful british gymnast of all time — with six olympic medals and multiple world championship titles to his name. but max whitlock has revealed that a fear of failure almost forced him out of the sport after last year's tokyo games. in an exclusive interview with breakfast�*s graham satchell,

he's opened up about his mental struggles and how his daughter helped him refocus on the challenge ahead. can you get the oil off? max whitlock at home with his daughter, willow. he is britain's most successful gymnast with a string of olympic medals, the most recent in tokyo last year. so what lies in wait for max whitlock throughout this men's pommel horse olympic final? can he retain the olympic title? for me, looking back like the memories are incredible. this is excellent work. he needs to open to the dismount with the pirouette. _ well, max whitlock, - you could not have performed that routine any better. and i remember literally, just even before my feet hit the floor, landing that dismount on pommel, ijust genuinely couldn't believe i'd done it.

but this was confident and fluent right to the end. celebrating back home, his wife, leah, and the rest of the family. ladies and gentlemen, - the anthem of great britain. but as max stood on the podium, he knew he had a big decision to make about his future. i'd retained my world titles. i'd retained my olympic title now and... ..it was more than i ever dreamt of doing, more than i ever expected to outdo my gymnastics career. i do it because i love it. and there was a moment where i felt, you know, i'm content. and i think that i think that's me done. and ifelt if i finished here, then i would finish on a high. it would definitely be a high. i got to a point, i had conversations.

i chatted with li, i chatted with my my whole family and and said that my decision to stop. gymnastics hasn'tjust been a sport or a job. been a sport or a job for max whitlock, it's been everything. he's been part of the british gymnastic team since he was 17. it's almost been my identity. it's been what i've done for 22 years without stopping. and it's it's gymnastics to me it's why i know it's what i do. lots of give up. yeah. and leah kept saying, like so many times, like i was obviously questioned on it, like, are you sure? blah, blah, blah. and i'd always i'm done thinking of it and then trying to make his head. max has never spoken about any of this publicly, never announced his retirement, and for the first few months away from the gym, he was content. but very quickly things began to fall apart.

i fell into a place into like this rut where i just lost all motivation for everything. i felt sluggish every single day. i was in this place where ijust didn't do anything. i got to a point. i remember sitting on a sofa and i was just getting upset talking to leah because i felt like a complete waste of space. like i do try not to be too hard on myself, but even now i'm even annoyed at myself for falling in that gap and falling into that position. because the worst thing about it was... i was sitting there feeling useless, like waste of space. a failure. they even got a blood test because i was just feeling awful every single day. and a blood test come back i was absolutely fine. and i think what that proved to me that it was all it was all in my head. max whitlock has been the poster boy of british gymnastics. always positive, always smiling. but he began to realize that it was, in his words, a mask. i've always been the

person just ijust keep it in and just plod on through. that's what i've done for my whole career. i've almost put a mask up and made to try and see my friends positively, so it's all good and just keep trooping on. and i think, i think this time ijust, ijust couldn't that i was in this rut, which i really struggled with. and i think as i started to talk to liam or start to talk to my parents more and the people around me, i started to actually realize how i was feeling, i was struggling. it become almost a bit more clear in my head. this is very impressive. spindle excellent. good extension. can he keep his legs tight? max started looking back at his career, opening up for the first time to his family, really examining how he felt. and the triple russian has gone well now, then. into the handstand sequence. he's off. that is a beautiful routine.

i thought, london i was 19 going in. i wasn't expected to produce anything. i was there, just kind of giving it my best shot. minimal, minimal pressure and just kind of loving the experience. and then when you look at the four year cycle from london to rio, the pressure was crazy. it really, really was. can he get it up? yes, he can. max whitlock has done everything he can. - it's now down to the judges. when it went from that to then fast forward to the five year cycle to tokyo. with that on my shoulders, with the expectancy of producing gold because i did in rio was really tough. and that's why i was in there feeling the most pressure that i've ever felt. i realised that i'd made a decision like that in terms of what i felt for 22 years. i want to want to do it for as long

as i can to change it. and i'm done because i was scared of failing. looking ahead and thinking about people saying, i want to try for four olympic games and trying to find out that i was adamant and i was strong and very quick to say, no, i'm done because. i was scared to go. a make a mistake should not make a final decision to even make the olympic games. just i was scared to be a failure and that is crazy. in the last few weeks, max has returned to the gym after confronting what he calls his fear of failing. he's back in training. it's nice to be back. nice to be back on a pommel horse. nice to be back in the kind of in a gym environment whether it's good sessions, bad sessions. just enjoying the chance to be back.

i've learnt so much like it's unbelievable. and i think for me the biggest thing was, ok, so if i did stop now, i wouldn't be retiring. it wouldn't be because i'm not doing what i believe in in terms of going until i want to, i want to kind of see where my potential is and kind of hit my limit. it wouldn't be retiring. it wouldn't be just stopping because of any reason like that. it would be quitting like it would if i stopped now. i would it would be me quitting. max has now made the decision to carry on. he will compete in a fourth olympic games. paris 2021i. the reasons why i'm doing gymnastics now, in a way, in my head feel like they've slightly changed because i want to prove to myself that i can do it. i'm excited to take on the challenge as one big thing. i've got my focus as i got my target. i want to prove something to willow.

so there's loads of massive, positive reasons, and i think that's what's helped me move forward without that fear of failure. ten, 20 years down the line, if i was explaining my career to willow and i said that i'd done this, i'd done that. then i stopped after tokyo, then i think her next question would probably be, well, why

did you stop? and i wouldn't want that to be because i'm scared of fighting in paris four years down the line. so i think i would rather push on through, give it my absolute best shot, and give myself every opportunity that i could to to try and kind of reach where i want to go to. i think that's huge. thank you to max for that story. very sweet to see him with his little girl. here's louise with a look at this morning's weather. hello. sunshine coming through in belfast and you will probably keep this weather for most of the day. a beautiful rainbow at the moment. if we take a look at the satellite picture and the rain radar combined, you can see where most of the showers are at the moment come across the east coast and some to wales and south—west england. the showers, few and far between. still some decent sunshine coming through for many. that is the day and some of those showers will just drift slowly on land. nowhere will be

immune from them today, but on the whole we keep some sunny spells and the wind is light. temperatures between 12 and 16 degrees in scotland and northern ireland. we might see highs of 18 degrees so cooler than in recent days. as the showers ease away and the skies stay clear through the evening and overnight, temperatures will fall away as well, so it will be a chilly night to come tonight. particularly under the clearer skies, we will see five or 6 degrees and we haven't seen temperatures like that for quite some time, so that could be a shock to the system first thing in the morning. scattered showers in the morning. scattered showers in the west and then gradually a weather front will push its way to the north—west of the great glen and then gradually through central scotland into the afternoon. elsewhere, if you are showers on sunday and still some fairly light winds and temperatures peaking again at 18 celsius. this weather front will introduce this cooler air rehab been talking about. it sweeps steadily south so there will be rain for all of us through sunday night

and into monday morning. the northerly wind will drag down the cold air and the winds will strengthen on monday as well. the difference on monday to the weather story, early morning rain clearing far south—east. sunny spells, blustery showers following on behind and a cooler story generally across the country. so the strength of the winds will make it feel noticeably cooler. temperatures will say between ten and at 15 or 16 degrees, but it will feel colder because of the direction and the strength of the direction and the strength of the wind. that story continues tuesday into wednesday, sunny spells, scattered showers, cooler for all of us. but some welcome rain out there for the gardeners and the growers. back to you do you know what happens out there for the gardeners and the growers. back to you do you know what happens after out there for the gardeners and the growers. back to you do you know what happens after bracha out there for the gardeners and the growers. back to you do you know what happens after bracha on out there for the gardeners and the growers. back to you do you know what happens after bracha on saturday out there for the gardeners and the growers. back to you do you know what happens after bracha on saturday morning out there for the gardeners and the growers. back to you do you know what happens after

hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. good morning. the government's huge new package of tax cuts is set to

important st helens success than captain james roby. this will be the 11th grand final of his extraordinary career. it could potentially cement our place. as you know, the only team to win four in a row, which is a huge motivating factor for us. we could be in the conversation then of regarded as potentially the best superleague team ever, and that's a huge credit to a lot of people and the hard work that's gone on for a number of years. they are familiar foes on a familiar stage. but for roby and for many saints fans, the prospect of a final against leeds brings back some painful memories. here's burrow. these two have history. they've met at this point four times before. leeds have won every single one of them. kevin sinfield was their captain. i'm delighted to see two champion teams battle it out again. there's a real history and respect between the two clubs and, you know, i know where my allegiance

is but i hope it'll be a wonderful final and i hope leeds go on and do the job. whatever happens, history will be made. either leeds or st helens will become the first club to lift that super league trophy for a ninth time. they are the two most successful clubs of the super league era, and after a long, hard season, they now have just one last match to separate them. but the fact that this leeds side are here at all would have surprised many just a few months ago — their fortunes completely transformed by new coach rohan smith. for him, it's the family business. father brian, a well respected rugby league coach. his uncle tony twice led leeds to grand final victory. yeah, we talk footy all the time, dad offers his advice and i take some of it and some i don't. and as he always said, when it's your turn, you can do it your way. so i was trying to try to do it my own way, but it's sort of silly not to bounce ideas off uncle tony and dad as well. like it's privileged to sort of carry on the family name a bit.

two sides, then with plenty of history at old trafford. two sides now ready to make more. adam wild, bbc news. there will be highlights tonight here on bbc one, at 10:50. now to the farewell to federer and the emotional scenes in london last night as roger federerfinally ended his career at the age of iii. the 20—time grand slam winner teamed up with great friend and rival rafa nadalfor team europe against jack sock and frances tiafoe, of team world, in the laver cup. the americans eventually won, but the evening wasn't really about them. our sports news correspondent laura scott reports. a raucous reception for the retiring roger, the swiss star who reimagined the sport and rewrote the record books for nearly a quarter of a century. for his 1,527th and final match, he got his wish. not battling his greatest rival, rafael nadal, from across the net, but sharing the same side of the court with him. both in blue. both in bandannas. braced for something special. and so it proved to be. they say you can't teach an old dog new tricks.

try telling federer that. i don't think i've ever seen that before. he was savouring this moment, and so were they. they have had a one on one experience and know him so personally. having not played in more than a year, there were signs of rust, but other moments of perfection without the practice and groundstrokes that looked like brushstrokes from this artist of the game. a fightback from the american pair foiled the fairy tale finale. the emotions of the ending clear to see, as one of the sporting greats was given the most sentimental of send—offs. laura scott, bbc news. now football, and a lot of head—scratching and thinking to do for england and manager gareth southgate. his team have been relegated from the top tier of the nation's league, but more worrying for fans is that they're in such bad form, with just one more match to tweak things before the world cup starts.

the england defenders gave italy's giacomo raspadori too much space, even if his shot was stunning and that gave italy their i—o win. england are now five matches without a win — their worst spell since 2014 and they haven't scored in three games. that hasn't happened for over two decades and they looked lost for ideas at times. the side were booed by the travelling fans at full time. next up, germany at wembley on monday — their last game before the world cup in qatar in november. i understand the reaction at the end because that's the results we have had in this competition, and yes, it is an understandable emotional reaction. i personally thought the performance is a step in the right direction but i completely understand because of the result, thatis understand because of the result, that is not going to be the reaction externally. in contrast, scotland are in good form again. and although aren't going to the world cup, they are top of their nations league group, and host the republic

of ireland tonight. while northern ireland will hope to improve upon their dreadful record in the competition when they host kosovo this evening. they haven't yet won a game in the nations league. but have a great chance of ending that run against kosovo, who are ranked 42 places below them. after tonight, northern ireland face greece in athens on tuesday. there'll be a record crowd for a women's super league game today, when arsenal take on tottenham in the north london derby at the emirates. by lunchtime yesterday, more than 51,000 tickets had been sold for the lunchtime kick—off. the previous record was 38,000, when spurs hosted the gunners in 2019. onto cricket, and england are now 2—1 up in their historic t20 series with pakistan. they won the third game in karachi, thanks to a brilliant 81 not out from yorkshire's harry brook. england set pakistan another huge target of 222, but this time, unlike the day before, they couldn't reach it, falling well short, and england take the lead, and england take the lead in the seven match series. mark wood bowled one delivery at 97

thanks, mike. it is quarter to ten. tributes are being paid this morning to the celebrated author dame hilary mantel, who has died at the age of 70. the double—booker prize winner was widely regarded as one of britain's greatest novelists, best—known for her trilogy about the rise and fall of thomas cromwell in tudor england. the broadcaster stig abell was among those paying tribute to dame hilary. in a tweet, he said, "hilary mantel wrote historical novels that will be read for centuries to come. brilliant, moving, fascinating, modern yet transporting. one of the greats. what a contribution to our national life and culture." and author and journalist caitlin moran, wrote, "hilary mantel�*s mind was one of the most powerful and magic machines on earth. we were lucky she wrote as much as she did. it's devastating that we've collectively lost something so astonishing." the wolf hall trilogy author was also remembered by the writeij rowling, who said:

"we lost a genius." we'rejoined now by the founder of the women's prize for fiction, author kate mosse, who knew dame hilary. good morning to you. this has come as a real shock. i think the publicist said she died suddenly but peacefully in her sleep. what she brought to literature, and as a woman in the literary canon was so important. can you put that into words? ,, . , important. can you put that into words? ,, , , , ., ,, words? she was simply great. she was a ulorious, words? she was simply great. she was a glorious, extraordinary _ words? she was simply great. she was a glorious, extraordinary woman i words? she was simply great. she was a glorious, extraordinary woman who l a glorious, extraordinary woman who wrote exactly what she wanted to write all the way through. she was never influenced by fashion or that she shouldn't say this or that. she became really well—known when she won the booker prize, the first woman to do that. her work has been exquisite from her very first novel, every day is mother's day, her

incredible memoir in 2003, giving up the ghost, a transcendent story of what it was like to be ill, the children she didn't have, the books she couldn't write. completely different ways of looking at the world. she was an amazing gothic writer as well as being a historical writer. she used to joke about people talking about her being an overnight success when she won the booker prize, but she said she would rather have been a success earlier. so many people are saying she changed historicalfiction so many people are saying she changed historical fiction and so many people are saying she changed historicalfiction and i think she did. if you look at her french revolutionary novel, a place of greater safety, that is seen as if it's happening right now in front of you and that is one of her extraordinary skills, that she made us understand that history is now and we are living through it. once you said you have got to remember

the real characters in the books don't know what is going to happen, so we know what will happen to oliver cromwell, but he doesn't. that skill of being able to make us reach into the book and say, get out now! she really was a classic writer whose books will be on the shelves with dickens and george eliot, and she lived in our times. it is really devastating that there won't be any more hilary mantel novels. i devastating that there won't be any more hilary mantel novels. heel! more hilary mantel novels. i feel like i'm more hilary mantel novels. i feel like m on _ more hilary mantel novels. i feel like m on a _ more hilary mantel novels. i feel like i'm on a big _ more hilary mantel novels. i feel like i'm on a big learning - more hilary mantel novels. i feel like i'm on a big learning curve . like i'm on a big learning curve about hilary mantel this morning, from you and others. i have been reading tributes to her. one of the things that emerges is just how supportive she was two other writers, people coming through, people who are struggling, which is how it is in that world. yes. how it is in that world. yes, totall . how it is in that world. yes, totally. she _ how it is in that world. yes, totally. she was _ how it is in that world. yes, totally. she was always i how it is in that world. yes, i totally. she was always generous with her time. she had an incredible wry sense of humour so she didn't

suffer fools, wry sense of humour so she didn't sufferfools, if wry sense of humour so she didn't suffer fools, if you wry sense of humour so she didn't sufferfools, if you like. she was incredibly clever, her mind was extraordinary. you would go into a green room at a festival and she would probably be sitting very quietly in the corner. she never drew attention to herself in that kind of way. at the minute you were in her presence, you knew, and she always had time to talk to younger writers, particularly younger women writers. i met her when she was shot listed for the women's prize for fiction for beyond black with an extraordinary gothic line behind the mundane every day and i had the pleasure of meeting her many times after that. you always learn something new from listening to hilary mantel. the reith lectures were extraordinary. her distinctive voice, nobody had a voice like hers, and she also had this playfulness. one of her famous pictures and she also had this playfulness. one of herfamous pictures is standing on a windswept beach in a

long cape with a hood over the top, and just kind of, well she looks like a 40s film star in a way. she just was exceptional. there are not many like that, who just have the courage to be themselves, to be the writer they want to be, and also always be available for anybody else who needed support and help. she really was great. iuierr; who needed support and help. she really was great.— really was great. very briefly, for an one really was great. very briefly, for anyone who _ really was great. very briefly, for anyone who hasn't _ really was great. very briefly, for anyone who hasn't read - really was great. very briefly, for anyone who hasn't read wolf- really was great. very briefly, for| anyone who hasn't read wolf hall, why was it so successful as a historical novel? because you don't see people reading them on the tube, traditionally. see people reading them on the tube, traditionall . �* , ., ., see people reading them on the tube, traditionally-— traditionally. anyone who wants to start reading _ traditionally. anyone who wants to start reading hilary _ traditionally. anyone who wants to start reading hilary mantel, - traditionally. anyone who wants to start reading hilary mantel, read l start reading hilary mantel, read the first paragraph of wolf hall. it is a boy down in the mud being beaten which sounds rather grim but the point is you feel somehow every blow. you know what it smells like, you are inside that child in his eyes looking out on this cruel world that he finds himself in and that

expected. ten to 12 metres high, the storm surge, so it will still produce some significant damage and flooding as it moves its way through. that is fiona. closer to home it's a much quieter story i'm pleased to say at the moment. we have a few showers running in off the north sea, also some through wales and south—west england as well at the moment. we also see some decent sunshine coming through and that will be the story for the remainder of the day. sunny spells, scattered showers for many. light winds but they are starting to come round to a northerly direction which will be significant in the weather story over the next few days. if you dodged the showers, you might see temperatures peaking at 18 celsius. the lowest temperatures through the night will be across england and wales as the showers fade away and the sky is clear, and the temperatures will fall away. through northern ireland and north—west scotland, some scattered showers and

more cloud here, but it will be a chilly start to sunday morning for some of us. those temperatures we haven't seen for quite some time. there will be some sunshine to go with it as well, a beautiful start from any on sunday. but this cloud will continue to thicken and eventually weather front will bring more persistent rain into the far north of scotland as we go through the afternoon. top temperatures here 13 to 16 degrees but we might see once again 18 in the south—east. this weather front will push steadily southwards, it will bring rain overnight sunday into monday morning, but it will also introduce the stronger northerly wind. really blustery wind on monday which will add a biting field to the weather that we have not seen for some colder blue tones will be significant, the early morning rain eases away, sunny spells and blustery showers for all as we go through the day on monday, the wind is really quite a feature.

temperatures down again another couple of degrees so we are looking at highs may be only 9 degrees in aberdeenshire but perhaps 16, 60 one fahrenheit in the south—east. staying cool, blustery and showery as we go through tuesday and wednesday as well. i will be back the same time tomorrow. enjoy your sunday, louise, thank you. 15 celebrities, fourjudges, one glitterball trophy — that's right, strictly�*s 20th season is officially upon us. contestants in the class of 2022 have been paired with their professional partners and are ready to compete on the dancefloor. sophie van brugen has been speaking to three of the couples vying for their place in the strictly history books. five times paralympic gold medalist ellie simmonds. the much anticipated return of the show meant fans were finally able to find out which of the celebrities and professionals have been paired together.

the show was one of the most popular on television. last year's final was seen by 11 million people, who tuned in to watch eastenders star rose ailing ellis become the first deaf contestant to win the show. i think it's amazing. and like we saw with rose last year, it changes so much, like there's so much now awareness about this and seeing that is actually quite beautiful. so yeah i'm all for all the changes and i think it's, it's brilliant. it'sjust it being relatable. it's being able to look at the screen and go like, oh, that's somebody that looks like me. he talks like me, he's like me or whatever, and it's being able to relate to that. i think it's really inspiring as well. well, the atmosphere here backstage is buzzing with nervous excitement as the celebrity class of 2022

are very much hoping they can impress the judges and dance their way into the final. i've always wanted to do strictly and ijumped at the chance. and some people are like, oh, they've asked me for years and i couldn't fit it in. they asked me once, yes, straight away! i always wanted to do it, wanted to do the hair, make—up, the clothes, the dancing. and also my mother is beside herself with excitement. absolutely delighted. i'm looking forward tojust being a part of this show and giving it all and just learning as i go. and that's all i can do. and also remember, it's an entertainment show, so have fun while you're doing it. we're both high energy. she's mad as a box of frogs, a bit like me. and it works because we've got high energy, but we're both very driven and we want to do the best we can. don't take ourselves seriously, but take the dance seriously. so the thing we started doing, we have a bit of fun, but when it comes to the rehearsal room... cracks whip and of course, strictly stalwarts tess and claudia are back

and already taking some of the younger contestants under their wing. they really calm your nerves. before you have a little chat with them or something, they always say, oh, i'm great. like, don't worry about it. like tess, i remember when i did my first little interview of her on the review show, she was like, "oh, that was great" afterwards. and i thought, 0k, nice little seal of approval there. so yeah, they're very, you know, they really calm your nerves and they're very warm. anton du beke is now a permanent member of thejudging panel, replacing bruno tonioli. the professional dancers are hoping they won't put a foot wrong. all of them are very picky, but also nice. you know! if i made shirley happy, i think i would die on the spot. i would say craig, only because i've never in my six years _ of being on this show gotten a ten from craig. _ are you scared of craig? i love him, but i'm scared of him as well. i'm not scared of him.

i mean, just flirt with the judges. it's quite simple. give them a bit of a flirt. get an extra point. sophie van brugen, bbc news. that's all for this morning, have a good day.
