11:31 pm
british prime minister, liz truss, has defended her government's chaos, and a sharp drop in the value of the pound. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me arejessica elgot, deputy political editor at the guardian and emma wolf an author and journalist. we usually start with newspaper front pages, but the economist magazine's cover is so eye catching, we thought we'd kick off with it: under a banner of �*how not to run a country�* it shows liz truss and kwasi kwarteng in a sinking rowing boat named �*great britain'.
11:32 pm
the i newspaper continues the theme with the banner: tories fear wipe—out after three weeks of truss as pm, also highlighting the yougov poll which they suggest shows more than half of voters would back the opposition in a general election. the times picks up with new bad news. the daily mail echoes the sentiment trust i am not for turning. the guardian looks ahead to tomorrow's meeting between liz truss and britain's independent fiscal watchdog. describing it as �*a highly unusual move�*. the mirror goes with thanks p.m. the mirror goes with thanks pm. with an image of the new £5 coin. with an image of the new £5 coin. and the star with its front science

11:34 pm
after five days of silence she is basically doubling down on her many budget from last friday, or chancellors many budget from last friday insisting that she is the right plan for britain and this is the way to grow the economy despite the way to grow the economy despite the fact that the markets went into freefall and the 33 point labour lead. huge criticism for her own, disquiet from her own tory mp so it really is amazing that she could still stick to this. a lot of tory mps are now saying either she needs to go mission is to would�*ve her chancellor, at three weeks into the job, she needs to do a u—turn on the tax cuts and that they are very... let�*s put that to jessica. this tax cuts and that they are very... let�*s put that tojessica. this idea just get that people are calling for liz truss to go, saying she must go after three weeks how ridiculous or not is that? i

11:37 pm
is not returning. as we had discussed this is very much liz truss vowing to press ahead from her controversial and difficult economic plan. i think it is two things it is not only the sense that these are, her plans her many budget from her chancellor on friday was economically unsound and shaky and set the market not into justjitters but for long meltdown, but also there are the two sides and the other side is the public not agreeing with the idea of trickle—down economics that you benefit the rich and it will trickle down that that is the way to promote growth. as she sticking with it. despite many calls for u—turns. she is actually seeming to be for now either in hiding or that she is the right plan for the economy and abandoning her tax cuts could trigger a recession. itruiiiiii abandoning her tax cuts could

11:41 pm
them to publish a forecast twice a year and you would expect that to happen with a physical event that there was that kwasi kwarteng announced those tax measures a week ago. ifeels like announced those tax measures a week ago. i feels like years ago. and announced those tax measures a week ago. ifeels like years ago. and he reportedly rejected those forecasts saying that they were ready but now it seems that the obr would�*ve been able to publish his forecast but kwarteng did not ask them to. so one of the things about it is that it is one of the things that has spooked market so much notjust the tax cuts which are funded through borrowing and likely to fuel inflation. it is the fact that it is being taken on without any of the normal safeguards. there was no forecast
11:42 pm
from the obr and kwasi kwarteng sacked the treasury secretary tom on his first day. now we are hearing liz truss has called these emergency talks with obr they are now expected to reduce his forecast by the time the next many budget which kwarteng has announced will be taking place. i expect that to take place a lot sooner than the 23rd of november. the quote here said obr meeting was like trying to meet read the manual after you have broken thing. that is the verdict on the source there. emma takes the front page of that striking image on the economist early on. how would not run a country. flit early on. how would not run a count . , ~ early on. how would not run a count . , «s ., ., country. of their striking image and has liz truss _ country. of their striking image and has liz truss a _ country. of their striking image and has liz truss a kwasi _ country. of their striking image and has liz truss a kwasi kwarteng - country. of their striking image and has liz truss a kwasi kwarteng in i country. of their striking image and has liz truss a kwasi kwarteng in a | has liz truss a kwasi kwarteng in a bus that _ has liz truss a kwasi kwarteng in a bus that is — has liz truss a kwasi kwarteng in a bus that is sinking fast. and liz truss— bus that is sinking fast. and liz truss is— bus that is sinking fast. and liz truss is desperately scrambling towards — truss is desperately scrambling towards the home. so the subhead is truss— towards the home. so the subhead is truss new— towards the home. so the subhead is truss new government may already be

11:44 pm
in with new fresh ideas which might be the thing is the hope right now but now there is a stagnation and the striking thing about that image is she still seems to be the survivor sort of cleaning toward the type of the boat and it is kwasi kwarteng that is sinking behind her. and it�*s a sort of a vote the idea that tories of the talk about that maybe he would need to be the fall quy maybe he would need to be the fall guy if there was a change direction. and the government has been relatively clear that this is a global economic set of circumstances. brought about largely because of food and�*s war in ukraine and the economic orthodoxy wasn�*t working here and liz truss had to do something different something to try to simile growth and if that means she will be unpopular, she will be unpopular. she will be unpopular, she will be un--oular. s ., she will be unpopular, she will be unp°puiar-— she will be unpopular, she will be un--oular. s . . ., unpopular. and a few weeks ago we

11:47 pm

11:48 pm
which of course, sham referendums of course he won. he will subsume you percent of ukrainian territories into russia. this is really, really serious. one wonders whether it is the sign of overwhelming strength, or weakness. the sign of overwhelming strength, orweakness. putin the sign of overwhelming strength, or weakness. putin does seems to be backed into a corner and is making wild threats ahead of the un general assembly about his nuclear arsenal. i think it is making the situation in ukraine even more worrying, messier when you have him defending areas of his territory within ukraine. that he�*s claiming are his, it is very, very wording development. to the front page of the daily star now we have covered economic chaos, war, now is time to be move on to armageddon. jessica explained the headline for us. the

right place to leave that paper review. not much we can do to top that. i�*m sorry that is all so depressing. emma and jessica you are anything but depressing thank you very much for talk you through the paper great to have you both on. thank you. and that�*s it for this edition of the papers of course will be back at the same time tomorrow at 1030 and 11:30 p:m.. tojoin us if you canfor 1030 and 11:30 p:m.. tojoin us if you can for now though, bye—bye. to cricket first and it was a thrilling end to the county championship season which went down to the wire and eventually saw yorkshire relegated from the top division. their fate was sealed by warwickshire who themselves had to beat hampshire to make sure that they wouldn�*t go down. it was a tight finish at edgbaston, but oh my goodness did
11:51 pm
liam norwell make himself the hero for the bears, he took 9 wickets for 62 to bowl hampshire out for the slenderest of 5 run victories. norwell also took 4 wickets in the first innings. let�*s hear from the happiest the man at edgbaston now. it is great to have individual bowlers i�*m chuffed about the performance but it means so much to the team and these members and the club to win division 1. for me, to me to be able to do something to help us stay there after an average season from us, means everything. so i�*m so glad that i managed to bring this performance and that the club is in division1 next year. one match in the wsl everton vs leicester at a sold out walton hall park. the foxes denied their first point of the season. an own goal by goalkeeper kirstie levell deep in stoppage time gave everton victory over leicester city. it gave new boss sorensen his second victory of the season

as leicester stilkl pointless. west bromwich albion women will wear navy shorts with their home kits for the remainder of this season, so they can avoid wearing white clothing whilst on their period. it follows discussions with the players and is an issue that has been highlighted by women across all sports. kilmarnock and northern ireland striker kyle lafferty has been charged by the scottish fa following an online video alleging to show him making a sectarian remark. the player is also under investigation by his club for the incident. he was sent home from international duty pending the outcome of the investigation. if he is found guilty by the sfa, he could face a ten match ban. a hearing will take place next month. efl clubs have ruled out a widespread shift of kick off times to lower floodlight use to save money. league two side mansfield have moved their home game against walsall forward to a 1 o�*clock kick off on the 15th of october decided against moving the majority of matches.
11:53 pm
when you actually look at the price of putting on a game the floodlights situation is not the, it is not one of the big costs of the match. it is quite small in comparison to everything else. so i don�*t think that we would have really got as much from it as people are suggesting. mark selby made a maximum 147 break at the british open snooker. the �*jester from leicester�* achieved snooker perfection in the very first frame of his fourth round match against jack lisowski in milton keynes. 15 reds, 15 blacks and all the colours. it�*s the fourth one of his career and it gave him the perfect boost for the rest of the match and went on to win by four frames to one. the wbc world heavyweight champion, tyson fury, has taken to social media again, calling on anthonyjoshua to sign a contract by the end of the day to fight him on december 3rd. he said the fight was off earlier this week after his monday deadline wasn�*t met. joshua�*s promoter eddie hearn
11:54 pm
says the fight can still happen but the contract won�*t be signed today. probably on monday when fury came out and initially said the fight is not happening we should have really gone out and said, "fair enough, we'll find another fight. " we didn't. we kept trying and we kept moving forward to try and make the fight and we're still doing that today so it is a bit frustrating because, you know, you see those comments and half the comments on this post are people that are slightly more advanced and go i can't make out what this guy is doing one day to the other and other half going, "it's only a bit of paper, eh, j? "just sign it. " it doesn't work like that. when you talk about an athlete the size of anthonyjoshua with commercial dealings and by the way we have a b—side in his fight whether that is right or wrong because we accepted that

and still prepared to do it. time is coming up on us and we'll want to get it done but i don't understand the deadlines that keep popping up on instagram when these deadlines are not being applied in negotiations. and it doesn't help anyone. great britain�*s double olympic medallist has retired at the age of 31 he win a medal when he took bronze between 12 games in london. he followed that up with an agonising silver at the real olympics in 2016. he lost here in final heartbreaking second. absolutely heartbrea king injury second. abselutely heartbree king injury ruled second. absolutely heortbreb king injury ruled him out style. injury ruled him out after the a last year although the took a games last year although he was a star as a he was a break—out star as a bbc studio pundit. he says he now hopes to pursue new opportunities to maximise all of his combat

experience. there was racing history at salisbury this afternoon: the first horse to run in the royal colours of king charles iii. tom marquand donned the famous purple, gold and red silks. he was on board educator. the late queen was a great supporter of racing. her horses won every classic during her reign, apart her stable has now been passed to king charles well, it�*s fairly clear and calm across most of the uk right now, but later on, we are expecting wind and rain to sweep right across the country. a big autumn low is on the way, and here it is on the weather map. a lot of isobars there, and that does mean some very strong winds, especially in northwestern
11:57 pm
parts of the uk. let�*s have a look at the forecast for the early hours. you can see that broad band of rain sweeping into ireland and western parts of scotland, a good squeeze in the isobars here. that means of strengthening winds. but further east and south, it�*s a completely different picture — light winds, calm, mist and fog in a few places and really quite chilly. on those winds, gusting through the morning up to 70 mph in the western isles of scotland, and really very windy around the irish sea coasts and down towards the southwest as well. now, here�*s that band of rain around lunchtime, and then later on in the afternoon, it�*ll reach other parts of the uk. but the weather will improve out towards the northwest later on in the afternoon. within the band of rain, it�*ll be very windy and temperatures will be 12—14 celsius. then, friday night, that rain turns heavy in east anglia and the southeast, and eventually, it�*ll sweep into the near continent by the time we get to early saturday. and here is saturday. that low pressure is very broad
11:58 pm
and it�*s still driving our weather. in fact, the winds will remain brisk on saturday, although not quite as strong, but they will blow in some showers off the atlantic. they will be most frequent out towards the northwest here. hail and thunder is quite possible. it southern parts of the uk, given a bit of sunshine, it actually shouldn�*t be too bad at all. and later, saturday night into sunday, we are expecting another weather front to just brush southern parts of the uk. some uncertainty exactly how quickly that rain will clear away on sunday, but the thinking is by the time we get to the afternoon, most of us should have a dry day. just before i go, an update on tropical storm ian — it�*s out in the atlantic, but the second landfall is now expected on the south carolina coast. and the storm surge around the southeast of the united states, again, is likely to cause problems and heavy rain inland as well. bye— bye.
11:59 pm
12:00 am
welcome to newsday. reporting live from singapore, i�*m karishma vaswani. the headlines... president biden says hurricane ian could be the deadliest storm that�*s ever hit florida. the danger is real, to state the obvious. please obey all warnings and directions from emergency officials. russia prepares to celebrate the annexation of territories in ukraine after a series of referendums dismissed as farcical by the west. britain�*s prime minister stands by her chancellor�*s widely—criticised economic policy, but global experts continue to express their doubts. this is something that you see in developing countries going through difficulties. you normally do not see this in a g7 economy.
