6:09 am
near prestwich in manchester, which is run by the nhs, says it is taking the allegations very seriously, and has taken immediate action to safeguard patients. this report from our social affairs editor alison holt contains some distressing details. behind the high fences of the medium secure units at edenfield mental health hospital in prestwich, panorama's undercover cameras found a toxic culture. patients here are vulnerable, sometimes challenging. there's a serious risk they may harm themselves or others. what's going on at this hospital, by and large, isn't working for the patients and is often actively cruel. the undercover reporter alan haslam went in after whistle—blowers raised concerns. he spent three months as a health care support worker. he saw staff mocking patients...
6:10 am
..slapping and pinching them. sometimes wards were worryingly understaffed... ..and patients felt failed. this is harley. she's 23, has autism and a history of self—harm. staff say at times she assaults them. she says she's provoked. the hidden camera shows harley held in a small, bare seclusion room for more than two weeks. there is some good care at the hospital, but the undercover reporter also sees basic care that doesn't always happen, like 15—minute checks on patients. and he sees records for these observations being falsified. they're important for monitoring
6:11 am
care — and if anything goes wrong. it's a culture that experts warn feels unsafe. i think you're quite clearly seeing toxic staff, and i think there's an awful lot of hostility towards patients across all of the wards. the task of the hospital is the treatment of patients, to promote recovery. that's the principal task. well, that task, i think, is being undermined. the trust which runs the hospital says the allegations will be fully investigated, and that it owes it to the communities it serves to ensure the best care every day. a number of staff have been suspended. alison holt, bbc news. you can watch panorama's hospital undercover: patients at risk on bbc iplayer. the american woman accused

6:36 am
withdrawn certain mortgage products. more than 900 were pulled yesterday, way higher than the previous record during the covid19 pandemic. now these are temporary measures as they while lenders work out their prices reprice, and many products should come back on the market soon, though nationwide has already confirmed its rates will definitely go up. now the majority — around three quarters — of mortgages in the uk are fixed rates — so in theory owners should be protected from fluctuations in the short term. but anyone looking to remortgage could see monthly payments go up — around 1.8 million fixed term deals are expected to end next year. tim muffett has been speaking to buyers and sellers about their concerns. with mortgages being pulled from the market, james's cost look set to skyrocket. this situation has been created over the last three
6:37 am
or four days has been quite disturbing, really. his fixed rate mortgage deal will end next year. the dwindling options for his next fixed rate look a lot more expensive. i could be going from £1600 a month to £3,000 a month and it's just not acceptable. we're not in a position to increase our salaries accordingly to meet those costs, so there is a genuine concern now. last friday there were almost 4,000 residential mortgage products available, according to the financial information service, moneyfax. by yesterday morning that had fallen to around 2600. that's a drop of more than a third in five days. and it's having a huge impact. my concern is more for our buyers and our buyers' buyers, that they are going to be refused a mortgage. which will then see the whole chain collapse. amy's nine—year—old son is autistic. she's desperate to move soon so he can settle at a new school.
6:38 am
if we don't move now, this year, we won't be able to until he has really settled in secondary school and who knows what will be the situation in three years' time. we are quite worried, aren't we? hannah and ryan had hoped to buy their forever home in the summer but the move was delayed. so our mortgage offer has expired. we had it at quite a low rate - for five years and then we have had to resubmit that recently, - which still hasn't been approved. we were packed and ready to go. we are literally living out of boxes at the moment. in chester—le—street in county durham, estate agent andrew siddle is desperate for an end to the economic shocks and surprises we have seen in recent days. i think at the moment it's a little bit of certainty that we need. you can't plan without certainty and at the moment i think it's too open—ended in terms of not only where the interest rates are, but where they will be in six months or even a year's time. barney had been hoping to sell his flat and buy another with his girlfriend.
6:39 am
instead, he says he will probably move home with his parents. the economic outlook is too uncertain. i'm having sleepless nights worrying about where my situation will be not only next year, but next month. the rate things are changing at the moment, things could go even worse. it feels like every step towards moving on in my life, the barriers keep moving, the goalposts keep moving. buying or selling a home can be stressful at the best of times, but these are extraordinary times for the economy. and stress levels for many are rising. tim muffett, bbc news. and later this morning we will be taking _ and later this morning we will be taking peoples questions about the impact _ taking peoples questions about the impact of— taking peoples questions about the impact of all of this on personal finances — impact of all of this on personal finances and doing our best to try to answer— finances and doing our best to try to answerthem. as finances and doing our best to try to answer them.— finances and doing our best to try to answer them. as always, people will have lots _ to answer them. as always, people will have lots of _ to answer them. as always, people will have lots of questions - to answer them. as always, people will have lots of questions because | will have lots of questions because it's a changing market and changing environment and we are trying to

establish where it will go next. hannah, thank you very much. mike's here with the sport. continuing the theme of rising energy costs, there is a meeting they will address this and for the lower league clubs it could be £2 million a year at the moment and one of the drip —— ideas is saving on floodlights being on and moving kick—off times to lunchtime rather than the traditional 3pm. mansfield town will be the first to try this on the 15th of october, kicking off at lunchtime rather than three o'clock, but they will see how fans react. obviously people have busy lives, saturday morning you might have children's football to go to, so can you make a 1pm kick—off. you look as though you have a question. you have a quizzicalface. i look as though you have a question. you have a quizzical face.— you have a quizzical face. i have lots of questions _ you have a quizzical face. i have lots of questions and _ you have a quizzical face. i have lots of questions and i - you have a quizzical face. i have lots of questions and i will - you have a quizzical face. i have lots of questions and i will hear| lots of questions and i will hear what you have to say and then give you my questions. keeping the floodlights off, rather than switching them on, will be just one of the ideas,
6:41 am
on the agenda of a meeting of english football league clubs today, as they try and come up with a plan to deal, with rising energy costs. one of the ideas up for discussion is moving kick off times earlier, to help save energy. jane dougall reports. so this is where we turn our floodlights on for the main pitch. this didcot town is a semi—professional club in oxfordshire. they struggled to survive during the pandemic and now floodlight costs are crippling the club. having an earlier kick—off would help considerably. our average yearly bill worked out £1,200 per month. but now we're going to be paying just over 5,500 a month. we could change our times now from 3:00 to maybe 1:30, 2:00. i think at the end of the day it should be just changed as a mandatory thing. northampton town in league two is also feeling the pinch. it's one of the efl clubs expected to discuss the cost of living crisis and the fan—led review at a meeting later today. some of their supporters say they'd be happy to pay more if it helped. prices would have to go up
6:42 am
a reasonable amount before i'd start to have to think about, "would i be able to go to football or not?" but for me, it would be about budgeting and perhaps working out where i can afford to make that sacrifice to come and, obviously, support the club that i love. even at a football club like milton keynes dons, nerves are jangling. at the league one club energy bills are currently £2 million a year. chairman pete winkleman can't help but worry about the inevitable rising costs. we're doing absolutely everything we can to look at the absolute basics, and that is don't use the power. so everything that can be turned off, we're turning off. all sports clubs will benefit from the government energy bill relief scheme, which fixes prices for six months. but many wonder if that will be enough to keep the lights on for their local team. jane dougall, bbc news. in the women's super league, defending champions chelsea came from behind to beat west ham by three goals to one.

a man who died when his ear infection was missed during telephone consultations with his gp surgery should have been seen face to face according to a ruling by nhs england. an investigation by the bbc�*s newsnight programme found that david nash, who was 26, had four calls over three weeks during covid restrictions but was never offered an in—person appointment. david grossman has this report. i'm worried about what it could be. i'm worried it could be cancer. david nash didn't have cancer. the 26—year—old musician and law student had a middle—ear infection, but was otherwise fit and healthy. it's a condition that's normally very easily treated. as his symptoms worsened, he had four telephone consultations with four different clinicians at his gp practice over 20 days in the autumn of 2020. each failed to diagnose his condition. his parents believe that not being able to see a doctor face—to—face was a significant
6:50 am
factor in his death. david died from a condition that you'd expect to see happen in the third world. hm. you know, people living in the middle of nowhere with no access to medical treatment. it's all right. ifeel like i'm on the phone to you all the time. newsnight has obtained the audio recordings of david's consultations. by the fourth one, he's very ill. the infection has spread to his brain. he's in extreme pain and he's slurring his words. i've got pain behind both sides, my sinuses, my back and my neck, as well. woman: sinuses? sinuses in the back of the neck, so like the cheek area and the back of the neck. back of your neck? you don't have sinuses in the back of your neck, usually. no, but... each clinician david spoke to, it was though... - the first consultation. ..he was treated as a stand alone i consultation, and very little regard
6:51 am
was given to the fact that this - was the fourth time and that, only days earlier, he was passing blood. sorry, the line's not very good. david has now had four telephone consultations and was so gravely ill that he was to die two days after this final call. no, not for like a week. it's been appalling care. i think they've completely let david down at every single point. - and i am absolutely convinced, . as david's mum, that if he'd been | seen on that last consultation, | he would still be with us today. newsnight understands that nhs england, which investigated david's care, has concluded that while he could have been seen face—to—face at any point, there was a clinical rationale
6:52 am
for not seeing him until the fourth call. theyjudged that that call was not satisfactory and a face—to—face consultation should have been organised. david's was an extreme case of what can go wrong, and many welcome the convenience of remote care. and doctors say it's a vital tool in keeping up with patient demand. indeed, newsnight has seen evidence of how bad staffing pressures are in general practice. an unpublished report by the royal college of general practice suggests that, over the next five years, 42% of gps in england are likely or very likely to leave the profession. in scotland, it's 36%. 33% in wales, and 29% in northern ireland. some 43% of gps stated that burn—out or work—related stress was their main reason for leaving. and 23% of gps across the uk were so stressed that they felt they couldn't cope most days or every day. i don't know a gp in the country
6:53 am
that doesn't want to do a good job and wants to do a job every single day. but when demand is going up and up and when the number of gps is going down, it's increasingly difficult to provide that service, however hard you try. and i think patients are seeing more stressed gps and gps are experiencing that, as well. so we're in a situation now where the service is not stable and is untenable. it can't carry on like this. that's him and i at his christening. an inquest is scheduled for the new year. david's gp surgery extended its condolences to the family, but said it won't comment until after that concludes. the coroner will look at whether not receiving face—to—face care contributed to his death. some believe a wider inquiry into gp services is long overdue. david grossman, bbc news. you can see the full investigation tonight on newsnight on bbc two at 10:30pm.

the saying goes that an englishman's home is his castle — but a flat in merseyside that looks more like an egyptian tomb has prompted a campaign to preserve the artwork contained within. the late ron gittins was an artist from birkenhead who created paintings and sculptures all over his rented flat — and some of it really has to be seen to be believed. our media and arts correspondent david sillito has more. from the outside, it looks like any other house. however, it hides a secret. welcome to ron's place. now, let's have a little look inside. there was a rental agreement which said that ron was allowed to redecorate, according to the tenant's taste. and ron's taste?
6:55 am
this was ron's taste. it's a minotaur. ron gittins was well known in the neighborhood, but it was only when he died that his family got to see inside his home. and it wasn'tjust a minotaur. in the living room, there's a giant lion. the kitchen has a roman bread oven. and on almost every surface, ron has left his artistic mark. did you have any idea all this was here? no. ron... we would only ever see ron at family gatherings or down in town. we would see him in his eccentric outfits, but we would never, ever come into his flat, because he just wouldn't have thought to invite us in it. it just wasn't that relationship. eccentric? yes, very. so he had been known to wear flower pots on his head.
6:56 am
he would dress in soldiers' uniforms. i've seen him in a robin hood outfit. he was what might be known as a character. yeah, definitely. if you saw ron in the street, you wouldn't forget him. it has taken months to reveal the full extent of all his creations, but the question now is what to do with it, which is why there is now a campaign to preserve and protect ron's place. i think some people obviously look at what he's done to be of a kind of not a fantastic standard. those things miss the point, really. it's about the immersive nature of this place. that's what makes it so special. the idea of the landlord who needs to rent it out, somebody else knocks down the fireplaces and gives it a kind of magnolia makeover and that's the end of it. if that happens, ijust couldn't sleep at night. and whatever becomes of ron's place, it is a reminder that we often have little idea about what might be going on behind closed doors. david sillito, bbc news, oxton on the wirral.
6:57 am
it's quite something, isn't it? quite something. if you haven't seen it before, you've seen it now. you won't forget it in a hurry. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. each good morning from bbc london, i'm thomas magill. an investigation is under way after two areoplanes after two aeroplanes collided on the tarmac at heathrow airport last night. emergency services were called to the scene after a koreanair and icelandair aircrafts were involved in what's being described as a minor collision. described as a minor incident. an spokeswoman for the airport says there were no reports of any injuries. the metropolitan police has recruited dozens of officers from kent police in the last year.
6:58 am
the move has been branded as unfair by the county's police and crime commissioner matthew scott. 46 officers moved across and will benefit from higher wages paid by the london force. mr scott has written to sadiq khan calling for a meeting to resolve the issue. a new type of cancer therapy that uses a common virus to infect and destroy harmful cells is showing big promise in early human trials. run by the institute of cancer research and the royal marsden nhs foundation trust, the trial found one patient�*s cancer vanished completely. doctors used a modified form of the cold sore virus to help activate the patients' immune systems. yeah, i really was surprised. not only me, everyone is happy, not only me. for me, it is a new life. and i'm very thankful for doctors to find this cure. that should be provided to everyone. it is the best miracle. a digital image of an unidentified woman, whose body was pulled

from the river thames 45 years ago, has been released for the first time. it's part of a fresh appeal to identify the lady in the thames found near vauxhall bridge in 1977. it's hoped the image will trigger memories of anyone that may have known her. let's take a look at the tube board this morning. there's a good service on all lines. now the weather with elizabeth rizzini. hello. good morning. it's been really very chilly of late across the capital with temperatures below the seasonal average. it will turn milder over the next few days, but along with the milder air comes some wet and very windy weather, especially on friday. it was another cold night last night, not as chilly as last night, though. we've seen this area of cloud and rain move south westwards across the capital. still probably a few showers about this morning for many but there will be a lot of dry
7:00 am
weather about today as well and that cloud will thin and break to give us some bright spells of sunshine, especially later this afternoon. always watch out for one or two showers blowing through on this north—easterly wind. temperatures will be higher than yesterday, peaking at 16 or 17 celsius. overnight tonight, with lighter winds and lots of clear skies around, temperatures are likely to drop back into mid—single figures again for many of us and there could be mist and fog forming as well, so possibly quite a murky early start to the day tomorrow. it will turn wet and windy from the west as we head through friday, that rain arriving as we head through the afternoon. that's it from me. i'll be back with the latest from london in half an hour but for now it's back in naga and charlie. good morning. welcome to breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. our headlines. the government resists calls for a u—turn on it's mini—budget, after emergency intervention from the bank of england

a cold start the day in south—east england with temperatures falling to 2 degrees. a day of sunshine and showers but less windy than yesterday. all the details later. it's thursday, 29th september. the treasury has rejected calls to overturn its mini—budget plans — despite ongoing economic turmoil. to overturn its mini—budget plans — it's after the bank of england stepped in to buy £65 billion of government debt when some types of pension funds were at risk of collapse. hannah has been looking at some of the details for us this morning. good morning. there is a lot to get through. this mini—budget was almost a week ago but the fallout continues. yesterday the bank of england decided to bail out the government, action it took because of the enormous rise in the cost of government borrowing. it
7:03 am
pledged to buy £65 billion of government debt known as bonds and without that decision, we understand some types of pension funds would have been at risk of collapse. it is an about turn in policy. a week ago, the bank was talking about starting to sell, not buying it. but the government said —— but it said it had to act because of a material risk to uk financial stability. we can take a look at this. idistill can take a look at this. will further intervention - can take a look at this. will further intervention by the bank of engtand _ further intervention by the bank of engtand be — further intervention by the bank of england be necessary? _ further intervention by the bank of england be necessary? that- further intervention by the bank of england be necessary?— england be necessary? that was andrew bailey _ england be necessary? that was andrew bailey not _ england be necessary? that was andrew bailey not giving - england be necessary? that was. andrew bailey not giving anything england be necessary? that was - andrew bailey not giving anything at all the way. his predecessor mark carney has spoken and said the reaction from the market is a result of the government not showing its workings. and he said it risks undermining the strategy. the message of financial markets is that there is a limit to unfunded spending and unfunded tax cuts
7:04 am
in this environment. and the price of those is much higher borrowing costs for the government and for mortgage holders and borrowers up and down the country. and, at some point, those higher costs of borrowing for everybody undoes the positive impact of any tax reductions all shorter tax reductions or shorter term growth measures. we have heard about the measures, but what is the landscape today? the -ound but what is the landscape today? tie: pound bounced but what is the landscape today? t'te: pound bounced back but what is the landscape today? tt2 pound bounced back a little bit but in the long—term it does not solve the confusion over the direction of uk economic policy. we are seeing how that can impact people across the country. mortgage lenders have withdrawn almost 1000 mortgage products over the past days as they react to the likelihood of a rise in
7:05 am
interest rates. it could have an impact on public services. the chief secretary to the treasury has asked government departments to find efficiency savings. he also suggested the government has not yet decided whether benefits will go up in line with inflation, something that had been promised by the previous administration's chancellor rishi sunak. so huge consequences across the economy in people's pockets, and it will be a worrying time for many. pockets, and it will be a worrying time for many-— let's speak now to political correspondent leila nathoo. there are questions to the government but we have not heard too much from liz truss and kwasi kwarteng in response. but also that inflation rise in terms of benefits promised by the former chancellor rishi sunak and whether it will be matched and stuck to. t

7:07 am
the chancellor, work closely with institutions to support them in their aims while maintaining their independence. we must look at this in the context of the fundamentals, which are that the uk economy is strong and we have a plan, a growth plan, to cut taxes, promote enterprise and cut red tape for business. what will worry the government is there is concern within the tory party about how this is coming across. anxiety among mps about the plans. will they generate the growth government says the tax cuts will generate at the speed to the government thinks they will? and concern about the political misjudgment in announcing these measures in this economic climate and using up the political capital as it were in announcing unpopular measures now where we have heard there will be more unpopular measures down the track. i think all will be looking at what liz truss

7:09 am
painful as it hits you. i am glad nobody else is out on the street here. whoa, oh! huge gust. and now the dangers are multiplying. the life—threatening winds and flooding have already caused damage throughout florida's south—western coast, with debris travelling through the waters and cars submerged. buildings like this beachfront hotel in naples have been overwhelmed, forcing people to wade through the water. some areas, like tampa bay, have seen a rare occurrence, what's called a reverse storm surge. ian's winds have been so powerful, they have swept away massive amounts of water, leaving bare shorelines. but that water will soon come barrelling back. now, several states have also declared a state of emergency, reckoning with the breadth of the hurricane and realising florida is not the only place ian has in its cross hairs.
7:10 am
azadeh moshiri, bbc news we will get the latest from florida in a moment. the storm was first identified in cuba where two people died and we saw the impact there before making its way to the florida area when the whole of the country was without electricity and power and two people died, in cuba. and we are hearing about the impact in florida as the hours go on. we're joined now by cbs correspondent, jason allen who's in tampa in florida. what is the situation? good morning, the west coast of florida is in a better situation. you do not see the heavy rain falling any more. the back of the storm is drier but still very powerful so there are wind gusts punching through this part of

in the uk, and found an outlet for his love of food with a book and internet series, cooking with coolio. today i am going to show you how to get your kids to eat their vegetables. coolio's death at 59 has shocked many fans. sheila finegan, his manager at trinity artists international, said. michelle pfeiffer tweeted that she was "heartbroken to hear of the passing of the gifted artist coolio. a life cut entirely too short." # tell me why are we so blind to see... away from entertainment, coolio advocated for those suffering from respiratory diseases and he also raised money and awareness about hiv aids in black communities. he leaves a rich and varied legacy.
7:19 am
time to have a chat about the weather. here's carol. that's a nice picture. it is beautiful. a weather watcher and a lovely picture of early morning sunrise in greater london. many are looking at sunny spells and fewer showers today but we still have showers today but we still have showers in the forecast across eastern areas this morning and the west seeing something drier. northern ireland, drier. showers in north—east england and the midlands, wales and the south—east. we have rain and gusty wind across cornwall that will push into the channel islands in the next couple of hours. then we are back to the mixture of bright spells, sunshine and showers. showers sinking south through the day. temperatures 11—17. lighter winds as the last few days so not feeling as cool as it did. overnight
7:20 am
many showers will fade. it will be cold for time with clear skies and fog patches forming in central england. by the end of the night, rain arriving in the west and not just the rain, the wind will strengthen, and that combination will be a feature of the weather tomorrow as this band pushes southwards and eastwards. heavy rain. 60 millimetres, in excess of two inches in the western up slopes in scotland. behind it, blustery showers, some heavy and thundery. the wind will be a feature especially around the coast, gusting to gale force at times. gusts in the northern isles as much as 70 mph. a police investigation has been opened into one of the uk's biggest mental health hospitals. it comes after a bbc panorama investigation revealed a toxic and abusive culture at edenfield centre, near prestwich, manchester.
7:21 am
the hospital, which is run by the nhs, says it has taken immediate action to safeguard patients and that some staff have been suspended. it's also commissioned an independent clinical review. this report from our social affairs editor alison holt contains some upsetting details. behind the high fences of the medium secure units at edenfield mental health hospital in prestwich, panorama's undercover cameras found a toxic culture. patients here are vulnerable, sometimes challenging. there's a serious risk they may harm themselves or others. what's going on at this hospital, by and large, isn't working for the patients and is often actively cruel. the undercover reporter alan haslam went in after whistle—blowers raised concerns.
7:22 am
he spent three months as a health care support worker. he saw staff mocking patients. slapping and pinching them. sometimes wards were worryingly understaffed... ..and patients felt failed. this is harley. she's 23, has autism and a history of self—harm. staff say at times she assaults them. she says she's provoked. the hidden camera shows harley held in a small, bare seclusion room for more than two weeks. there is some good care at the hospital, but the undercover reporter also sees basic care that doesn't always happen, like 15—minute checks on patients.
7:23 am
and he sees records for these observations being falsified. they're important for monitoring care — and if anything goes wrong. it's a culture that experts warn feels unsafe. i think you're quite clearly seeing toxic staff, and i think there's an awful lot of hostility towards patients across all of the wards. the task of the hospital is the treatment of patients, to promote recovery. that's the principal task. well, that task, i think, is being undermined. the trust which runs the hospital says the allegations will be fully investigated, and that it owes it to the communities it serves to ensure the best care every day. a number of staff have been suspended. alison holt, bbc news. panorama's undercover reporter

hospital undercover: patients at risk on bbc iplayer. time to get the news travel where you are. good morning from bbc london. i'm thomas magill. an investigation is underway after two areoplanes collided on the tarmac at heathrow airport last night. emergency services were called to the scene after a koreanair and icelandair aircrafts were involved in what's being described as a �*minor collision'. an spokeswoman for the airport says there were no reports of any injuries. the metropolitan police has recruited dozens of officers from kent police in the last year. the move has been branded as �*unfair�* by county's police and crime commissioner matthew scott. 46 officers moved across and will benefit from higher wages paid by the london force. mister scott has written to sadiq khan, calling for a meeting to resolve the issue. a new type of cancer therapy that uses a common virus to infect
7:30 am
and destroy harmful cells is showing big promise in early human trials. run by the institute of cancer research and the royal marsden nhs foundation trust. the trials found one patient�*s cancer vanished completely. doctors used a modified form of the �*cold sore' virus to help activiate the patient�*s immune systems. yeah, i really was surprised. not only me, everyone is happy, not only me. for me, it is a new life. and i'm very thankful for doctors to find this cure. that should be provided to everyone. it is the best miracle. a digital image of an unidentified woman, whose body was pulled from the river thames 45 years ago, has been released for the first time. it's part of a fresh appeal to identify the "lady in the thames" found near vauxhall bridge in 1977. it's hoped the image will trigger memories of anyone that may have known her. let's take a look at the tube board this morning.

earlier kick off times, and not kick off times, and not finishing saturday afternoon games under the floodlights will be just one of the ideas, on the agenda of a meeting of english football league clubs today as they try and come up with a plan to deal, with rising energy costs. one of the ideas up for discussion is moving kick off times earlier, to help save energy. jane dougall reports. so this is where we turn our floodlights on for the main pitch. didcot town is a semi—professional club in oxfordshire. they struggled to survive during the pandemic and now floodlight costs are crippling the club. having an earlier kick—off would help considerably. our average yearly bill worked out £1,200 per month. but now we're going to be paying just over 5,500 a month. we could change our times now from 3:00 to maybe 1:30, 2:00. i think at the end of the day it should be just changed as a mandatory thing. northampton town in league two
7:49 am
is also feeling the pinch. it's one of the efl clubs expected to discuss the cost of living crisis and the fan—led review at a meeting later today. some of their supporters say they'd be happy to pay more if it helped. prices would have to go up a reasonable amount before i'd start to have to think about, "would i be able to go to football or not?" but for me, it would be about budgeting and perhaps working out where i can afford to make that sacrifice to come and, obviously, support the club that i love. even at a football club like milton keynes dons, nerves are jangling. at the league one club energy bills are currently £2 million a year. chairman pete winkleman can't help but worry about the inevitable rising costs. we're doing absolutely everything we can to look at the absolute basics, and that is don't use the power. so everything that can be turned off, we're turning off. all sports clubs will benefit from the government energy bill relief scheme, which fixes prices for six months. but many wonder if that will be enough to keep the lights on for their local team. jane dougall, bbc news.

lots of other clubs to consider. england have to win both their remaining t20 games against pakistan to win the series after losing last night in lahore. they had bowled the home side out for 145, but their batting let them down again. a six off the last ball would have levelled the scores, but it didn't happen. pakistan are 3—2 up with two to play. major changes to rugby league, including scrapping relegation for some clubs, have been proposed by the sports management company img. the recomendations come after the most "comprehensive piece of consultation ever" in the sport. img, who have been brought in to help "re—imagine the game", proposes super league has category a and category b clubs, with only the latter in danger of being relegated. other proposals include a joined—up calendar with international matches, and a push to boost the womens' and girls' games. sir mo farah has pulled out of running the london marathon this sunday with a hip injury.

8:04 am
on announcing unpopular measures like cutting the 45p tax rate and scrapping the cap on bankers' bonuses when there will be more tough stuff coming down the line. chris philp confirmed departments are going to be asked to make efficiency savings, so they will be cut because inflation is running so high, to government spending. he will not revise commitments already made. and he refused to confirm if benefits would go up with inflation as promised by the previous administration. a lot of decisions that will be politically tricky for conservatives to make. plenty of questions and plenty of unease on conservative backbenchers and that pressure from labour and the lib dems calling for that budget to be abandoned and parliament to be recalled. we have the conservative party conference coming this weekend, starting in birmingham and

8:06 am
and he says it has the potential to undermine the strategy for growth we were hearing about. the message of financial markets is that there is a limit to unfunded spending and unfunded tax cuts in this environment. and the price of those is much higher borrowing costs for the government and for mortgage holders and borrowers up and down the country. and, at some point, those higher costs of borrowing for everybody undoes the positive impact of any tax reductions or shorter term growth measures. there is no escaping it. it is a worrying time for people. hard to understand what is going on and you look at the immediate implications. what is needed now, what is the next step? what is needed now, what is the next ste - ? ~ ., what is needed now, what is the next ste? . ., ., what is needed now, what is the next ste - ? ~ . ., . what is needed now, what is the next ste-? . . ., . ,, step? what the government and bank of encland step? what the government and bank

8:09 am
the life—threatening winds and flooding have already caused damage throughout florida's south—western coast, with debris travelling through the waters and cars submerged. buildings like this beachfront hotel in naples have been overwhelmed, forcing people to wade through the water. some areas, like tampa bay, have seen a rare occurrence, what's called a reverse storm surge. ian's winds have been so powerful, they have swept away massive amounts of water, leaving bare shorelines. but that water will soon come barrelling back. now, several states have also declared a state of emergency, reckoning with the breadth of the hurricane and realising florida is not the only place ian has in its cross hairs. azadeh moshiri, bbc news we spoke earlier to cbs correspondent, jason allen
8:10 am
who was in the city of tampa in florida — one of the areas worst affected by the hurricane. the heavy rain we experienced over the last 18 hours is largely come to an end. the back of the storm, although it might be drier, isjust as powerful. we see wind gusts up to 60 mph. the extreme surges you talked about that inundated some communities, thankfully did not happen here in tampa, a metro region of more than 3 million people. in some places we saw water pull out of the bays, showing the strength of the bays, showing the strength of the storm as it spun around, but it pushed water to communities 12 feet high, most of that 100 miles south of where we are. tonight there are rescue crews going into communities trying to reach some of those people requesting help stock in some of those flooded homes from all of that

mental health hospitals. it comes after a bbc panorama investigation revealed a toxic and abusive culture at edenfield centre, near prestwich, manchester. the hospital, which is run by the nhs, says it has taken immediate action to safeguard patients, and that some staff have been suspended. it's also commissioned an independent clinical review. the prime minister has been speaking for the first time since the mini—budget, on bbc radio leeds town. mini-budget, on bbc radio leeds town. . ., . . town. here are some of that. we were facin: a town. here are some of that. we were facing a situation _ town. here are some of that. we were facing a situation where _ town. here are some of that. we were facing a situation where people - facing a situation where people could have had to pay energy bills up could have had to pay energy bills up to £6,000, where inflation was increasing and where we were looking at an economic slowdown that would have had a huge impact across the country, including in places like leeds. we had to take decisive action. that is why we took action

8:14 am
no real clear answer as to what has been going on in terms of the prime minister media facing over the last four days but the prime minister making clear she stands by what was put out in the mini—budget from the chancellor last week. worth saying that a lot of practical issues, interest rates for example, you might be worried about mortgages. hannah will be answering some of those questions in about 20 minutes. if there are things you want to talk about, get in touch and we will try to deal with some of those. you can get in touch by e—mail and twitter. the american woman accused of causing harry dunn's death by dangerous driving will face a court in the uk for the first time later today.
8:15 am
the case against anne sacoolas will be heard at westminster magistrates' court and it is thought she will be appearing remotely from the united states. daniel, this is something we have heard from the family and something they have waited for a long time. we will see today the beginning of a court process that could lead to a trial on a charge of causing the death of harry dunn by dangerous driving. the woman accused of causing that death will not be in court stop she is not in the country, she is in the united states where she flew less than three weeks after harry dunn's death and she will appear via video link from the states. because the court process is getting under way we are limited by what we are allowed to say legally but harry dunne was killed when his motorbike was hit in a head—on collision on a road near raf crown in northamptonshire. the woman at the wheel of the vehicle was anne
8:16 am
sacoolas. the raf bases used by the us military and intelligence agencies as a communications base. anne sacoolas's husband was a us government employee and it later came out in court in america that anne sacoolas was also a us government employee. either way, she left the country 19 days after the death of harry dunn claiming diplomatic immunity. his family have been campaigning for a court process in the uk. as far back as december 2019 the crown prosecution service authorise the charge of causing death by dangerous driving. there has been a diplomatic tussle between the united states and uk, but the family of harry dunn will be here today to see the court process begin, even if anne sacoolas will only be appearing via video link. it is unprecedented and there could be more twists and turns on the way but it looks as if the court process is
8:17 am
finally going to begin. here's carol. i see you are starting with pictures from florida. there are some real problems. we do not know yet the extent of the damage. that is right. it is so dark. 2 million people without power. it has been catastrophic. when hurricane ian made landfall, it was a category four hurricane with sustained wind speed of 150 mph. the storm surge was between 11—12 feet. if you think of a double—decker bus, that is 1a feet tall. imagine having 11—12 feet of water in height heading towards you. it has been downgraded to category one because it made landfall but will still have an
8:18 am
impact in florida, and as it goes into georgia and south carolina. you can see the extent, covering the whole of florida. the centre is less defined as it moves across. if you follow the track, later today it will push into the west atlantic and move into north—east florida and south carolina and georgia. you can see the truck quite nicely here. still packing a punch with torrential rain and strong wind. still a damaging hurricane. closer to home, things are quieter. sunshine and fewer showers than yesterday. we have rain in the southwest which will clear and pushed down to the channel islands. a week when the front in central england and wales pushing south. with a lighter wind and the sunshine, it will not feel as cool with temperatures up to 17. tonight many showers will fade. it will be
8:19 am
cold for time. fog patches forming across parts of england. already we have rain moving into the west which will be accompanied by strong winds. tomorrow the rain move southwards and eastwards. we could have as much as 60 millimetres in parts of western scotland in the hills. as the rain moves away, a return to heavy and thundery showers. around the coast, we are looking at gales. talking of gusts, we will have gusts up talking of gusts, we will have gusts up to 70 mph across the northern isles. a man who died when his ear infection was missed during telephone consultations with his gp surgery should have been seen face—to—face according to a ruling by nhs england. an investigation by the bbc�*s newsnight programme found that david nash, who was 26, had four phone—call consultations over three weeks during covid restrictions, but was never offered an in—person appointment.

david grossman has this report. i'm worried about what it could be. david nash didn't have cancer. the 26—year—old musician and law student had a middle—ear infection, but was otherwise fit and healthy. it's a condition that's normally very easily treated. as his symptoms worsened, he had four telephone consultations with four different clinicians at his gp practice over 20 days in the autumn of 2020. each failed to diagnose his condition. his parents believe that not being able to see a doctor face—to—face was a significant factor in his death. david died from a condition that you'd expect to see happen in the third world. hm. you know, people living in the middle of nowhere with no access to medical treatment.
8:21 am
newsnight has obtained the audio recordings of david's consultations. by the fourth one, he's very ill. the infection has spread to his brain. he's in extreme pain and he's slurring his words. each clinician david spoke to, it was though... - the first consultation. ..he was treated as a stand alone i consultation, and very little regard was given to the fact that this - was the fourth time and that, only days earlier, he was passing blood. david has now had four telephone consultations and was so gravely ill that he was to die two days
8:22 am
after this final call. it's been appalling care. i think they've completely let david down at every single point. - and i am absolutely convinced, . as david's mum, that if he'd been | seen on that last consultation, | he would still be with us today. newsnight understands that nhs england, which investigated david's care, has concluded that while he could have been seen face—to—face at any point, there was a clinical rationale for not seeing him until the fourth call. theyjudged that that call was not satisfactory and a face—to—face consultation should have been organised. david's was an extreme case of what can go wrong, and many welcome the convenience of remote care. and doctors say it's a vital tool in keeping up with patient demand.
8:23 am
indeed, newsnight has seen evidence of how bad staffing pressures are in general practice. an unpublished report by the royal college of general practice suggests that, over the next five years, 42% of gps in england are likely or very likely to leave the profession. in scotland, it's 36%. 33% in wales, and 29% in northern ireland. some 43% of gps stated that burn—out or work—related stress was their main reason for leaving. and 23% of gps across the uk were so stressed that they felt they couldn't cope most days or every day. i don't know a gp in the country that doesn't want to do a good job and wants to do a job every single day. but when demand is going up and up and when the number of gps is going down, it's increasingly difficult to provide that service, however hard you try. and i think patients are seeing more stressed gps and gps are experiencing that, as well. so we're in a situation now where the service is not
8:24 am
stable and is untenable. it can't carry on like this. that's him and i at his christening. an inquest is scheduled for the new year. david's gp surgery extended its condolences to the family, but said it won't comment until after that concludes. the coroner will look at whether not receiving face—to—face care contributed to his death. some believe a wider inquiry into gp services is long overdue. david grossman, bbc news. you can see more on this on newsnight, tonight at 10.30pm, on bbc two. as you heard in that report, a survey by the royal college of general practitioners has found that more than four in ten gps in england are likely to leave the profession within the next five years. we're joined by one of our resident gps, dr helen wall. good morning. that story was
8:25 am
unbelievably tragic. horrendous. horrendous is the right word. you see that and you look at the work processes in place at this moment, away from that case which is being dealt with by nhs england. other processes in place now, are they causing problems? irate processes in place now, are they causing problems?— processes in place now, are they causing problems? we have a massive workforce issue _ causing problems? we have a massive workforce issue in _ causing problems? we have a massive workforce issue in general _ causing problems? we have a massive workforce issue in general practice. i workforce issue in general practice. i am sure that is not news to you. as it said, we are using demand management strategies to try to see as many patients and contact as many patients day in, day out and some of thatis patients day in, day out and some of that is through remote methods. there is no getting away from the fact patients need to be seen face—to—face and pre—pandemic it was 80% and now we are at 65% of all consultations are face—to—face. so
8:26 am
it is not massively different from where we were. there are fewer? yes, 65% of consultations are face—to—face so fewer are seen face—to—face. the rest are managed remotely. we do not necessarily need to see everybody face—to—face. the key is this skill in working out who we need to see face—to—face and wenln that is when safety comes into it. ., ,. , wenln that is when safety comes into it. ., , wenln that is when safety comes into it. the moment, safety, pair that with stress— it. the moment, safety, pair that with stress which _ it. the moment, safety, pair that with stress which is _ it. the moment, safety, pair that with stress which is reported i it. the moment, safety, pair that| with stress which is reported now, how are those two issues, how is the stress gps experience impacting on safety procedures and for patients? as you rightly said, the royal couege as you rightly said, the royal college is constantly surveying gps and many are looking to leave the profession, 40% in the next five years which is huge. general practice is changed notjust through covid. our numbers have been
8:27 am
dwindling since 2015. in any service, whether talking about health care, warehouse production line, if you have less and less people and more workload and processes, so we are dealing with more complexity is because patients cannot get into the secondary care system, we are managing more risk, seeing more patients. it is easier for patients to get in touch which i know some patients will disagree but being able to call it work, put in an online consultation at night, there are more ways to access us although people are finding it harder to see a gp. we are delivering 1.3 million appointments a day in england. in any service with more workload and less staff, strains will show and people will be burned out and feel fatigued. that has to have an impact on how people make decisions and the safety of
8:28 am
those decisions, albeit i believe no one goes to work to do a bad job. no gp goes to work wanting to harm patients. we are working harder than ever to keep people safe. rewing patients. we are working harder than ever to keep people safe.— ever to keep people safe. going back to the phone — ever to keep people safe. going back to the phone consultation _ ever to keep people safe. going back to the phone consultation issue i ever to keep people safe. going back to the phone consultation issue and i to the phone consultation issue and in this case, the story retold tragically went wrong. and that is being dealt with in the proper way. very sad for that family. is there a risk because of the pressure you and colleagues are under and maybe because you can speak to more people in a phone consultation, not necessarily because it is better, thatis necessarily because it is better, that is what you will gravitate towards because you can get three more people? irate towards because you can get three more people?— towards because you can get three more --eole? ~ ., more people? we can get three more --eole, more people? we can get three more people. but — more people? we can get three more people. but we _ more people? we can get three more people, but we have _ more people? we can get three more people, but we have to _ more people? we can get three more people, but we have to have - more people? we can get three more people, but we have to have an i people, but we have to have an element of a duty of care. we will see people face—to—face if deemed necessary. the telephone triage is sifting out people who can be dealt with without being seen and need to
8:29 am
be brought in. as nhs england said, they thought on the fourth phone call that patient should have been seen. in any system, face—to—face, remotely, there has to be an element of care and assessment. instances can and do go wrong. it is important to say we cannot extrapolate cases like this and say all remote consultation is unsafe because we deal with many people remotely everyday, perfectly safe, well—balanced consultations and a lot of my patients like the ability to do that. i speak to patients and asked them to come in and they say they are happy to speak on the phone. patients like that. it is making sure trainees and gps... can making sure trainees and gps. .. can ou insist making sure trainees and gps. .. can you insist on — making sure trainees and gps... can you insist on them going in? can you say in certain cases i insist on being seen?— say in certain cases i insist on

8:33 am
especially later this afternoon. always watch out for one or two showers blowing through on this north—easterly wind. temperatures will be higher than yesterday, peaking at 16 or 17 celsius. overnight tonight, with lighter winds and lots of clear skies around, temperatures are likely to drop back into mid—single figures again for many of us and there could be mist and fog forming as well, so possibly quite a murky early start to the day tomorrow. it will turn wet and windy from the west as we head through friday, that rain arriving as we head through the afternoon. that's it from me. hello, this is breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. breakfast is on bbc one until 9:15 this morning. then it's time for morning live with rav and gethin. they can tell us what they have in store. good morning. coming up on morning live,

8:45 am
worst but hope for the best and we need to be doing that for at least 18 months in advance. if you know you are on a fixed rate mortgage that might be coming to an end of next year, plan for that now. it's really important. and the other thing is you make sure you know your credit score. a lot of people haven't got a clue what it is and are always shocked. you can check it for free, are always shocked. you can check it forfree, and it is a myth, checking it does not damage it in any way, so get on top of that because if you have a good credit rating, then you can borrow for cheaper, so if you need to borrow in the next 18 months, you will get better deals if your credit report is in good shape. thank you very much to both of you for coming in. we hope that has been helpful in terms of answering your questions and i'm sure there will be many more in the days, weeks and months to come and we will do our best to answer those two. thea;t months to come and we will do our best to answer those two. they never sto - , best to answer those two. they never sto, and best to answer those two. they never stop. and nor— best to answer those two. they never stop, and nor should _ best to answer those two. they never stop, and nor should they. _ best to answer those two. they never stop, and nor should they. thanks - stop, and nor should they. thanks very much. stop, and nor should they. thanks very much-— very much. the time is a 45. let's take a moment _ very much. the time is a 45. let's take a moment to _ very much. the time is a 45. let's take a moment to look— very much. the time is a 45. let's take a moment to look at - very much. the time is a 45. let's

8:49 am
going fora run, or, like, they know how i'm feeling and are all like, "right, out, out! " really? out the house, yeah. many dog owners will tell you that their pet can sense their mood, but now there's some evidence to suggest that they can smell our psychological state. can't you ? this is a stress sniff test devised by scientists. willing pet dogs, volunteered by their owners, were trained to nose through this canister line—up. each can contains a sample of sweat or breath taken from a person either before or just after they'd completed a difficult stress—inducing maths problem. the task — sniff out the stressed person's sample. she's one of our study dogs. she's a three—year—old mixed breed and she's a rescue dog and she's absolutely gorgeous. this is herbert. 0h, they do look kind of similar! they do, don't they? having a psychological stress response changes the way that our body is emitting odours, and dogs can detect that change.
8:50 am
why was stress of particular interest to you? i think it's just really interesting to kind of confirm that, alongside everything that we're aware of, there are these kind of more subtle cues that we might be emitting that dogs are picking up on. the researchers say their findings could help in the training of service and therapy dogs, understanding exactly what human scent cues their noses can detect. but the researchers also sniffed out one more reason why people feel so connected to their dogs. victoria gill, bbc news. anecdotally, anyone will say, yes they do, but it has been tested. it's official now. everything you thought was true is now true. we have a happy sofa this morning. we have a happy sofa this morning. we have the finalists from all that glitters, the bbc programme that has been putting the jewellers to their
