to discuss meaningful reform. we want to give our staff a pay increase, but it has to be self funding from within the industry, because we can't afford to keep taking more taxpayers' money. as conservatives gather in birmingham for their annual conference, for the first time, prime minister liz truss admits there has been "disruption" in the uk economy following last friday's mini—budget. a man held in iran for nearly five years on spying charges before being released alongside nazanin zaghari—ratcliffe says he's dedicating his london marathon run to the people of iran and its prisoners.

6:04 pm
amid high inflation, the rmt wants that for its rail worker members too, and it argues job security and working conditions are under threat. it says its mandate for strike action last until november. we will be can commencing a new strike ballot next week, and that will deliver a new mandate that will last until next year if that's what is needed. we don't want that. we would rather have a settlement and get this out of the way and get back to normal. rail bosses say they want to give a pay rise, but the impact of the pandemic on pay rises and travel patterns mean reforms must be agreed to deliver it. we are looking to standardise areas of working _ we are looking to standardise areas of working practices that will then allow— of working practices that will then allow us _ of working practices that will then allow us to give staff an increase, but we _ allow us to give staff an increase, but we can't — allow us to give staff an increase, but we can't forget that there is a £2 billion— but we can't forget that there is a £2 billion funding gap and there is no new— £2 billion funding gap and there is no new money. we have got to generate — no new money. we have got to generate that money from within the industry _ generate that money from within the indust . ., ., ., , industry. negotiations continue when the new transport _ industry. negotiations continue when the new transport secretary - industry. negotiations continue when the new transport secretary recently| the new transport secretary recently met with the rmt and aslef leaders, but there has been no breakthrough, and unions have made it clear more
6:05 pm
strikes could be coming down the track. katie austin, bbc news. also walking out today, royal mail workers are on their second day of a 48—hour strike in a dispute over pay and conditions. the communication workers union says the walkout by around 115,000 of its members is the biggest strike of the year. a royal mail spokesman described the action as "reckless" because it would weaken the company's finances and jeopardise workers' job security. the cost of gas and electricity for millions of households has risen from today with a typical annual bill going up to £2,500, twice as high as last winter. but the government has brought in a number of measures to try to help with the increase, as our business correspondent simon browning reports. in different corners of the country this afternoon, protests. coordinated demonstrations about the cost of living. from today, 25
6:06 pm
million households are paying more for their energy. i'm on a pension. every penny that they charge me for the oil is out of my purse, that i have less to spend on food or whatever i need. walking into the supermarket _ on food or whatever i need. walking into the supermarket last _ on food or whatever i need. walking into the supermarket last night, - on food or whatever i need. walking into the supermarket last night, for| into the supermarket last night, for instance. _ into the supermarket last night, for instance, there was a difference into pounds on a product from two days ago— into pounds on a product from two days ago that i looked at. in days ago that i looked at. belfast, days ago that i looked at. in belfast, newcastle, leeds, london and birmingham, protests that enough is enough. as prices rise and the impact it has on consumers struggling with their bills. the government's huge package of energy support fixes the amount you pay per unit of energy you use. the typical household with average energy usage and paying by direct debit will now pay £2500 for their energy. prepayment will cost more, but the more energy you use, the more you will pay. all uk households will be given a £400 discount on their energy bills from october arranged by energy companies. more cost of living payments are
6:07 pm
available for pensioners, those on disability payment, and low income homes. but fuel poverty charities are already concerned. the level of support for everybody has been — the level of support for everybody has been really, really welcomed, but the _ has been really, really welcomed, but the depth and the severity of the issue — but the depth and the severity of the issue for millions of householders is not being satisfactorily affected by this price — satisfactorily affected by this price support. so for some households, they simply need more financiat— households, they simply need more financial support to get through the winter~ _ winter. we know how it winter. — we know how it works. from _ we know how it works. from a _ we know how it works. from a visit _ we know how it works. from a visit to - we know how it works. from a visit to british i we know how it works. i from a visit to british gas yesterday, the prime minister said it was important to understand the government taking steps to deal with the costs faced by households by putting in places energy plans. liz truss said she did not want to increase taxes but instead borrowing to provide the support. as bills go out, the advice is to use less as you can gives the colder months awry. —— use little as the colder months awry. let's ta ke take you to ukraine where there have been developments this afternoon. in the last hour,
6:08 pm
the russian news agency ria, quoting the defence ministry in moscow, said russian troops have now left the strategic town of lyman, in eastern ukraine. earlier, the ukrainian military said its troops were inside the town, which is just inside the russian—occupied donetsk region. of course, russia annexed that along with three other regions in a high—profile event in moscow presided over by president putin yesterday. the spokesman for the defence ministry, quoted by russian news agencies, said the withdrawal was carried out because of a threat of encirclement. earlier, our europe regional editor paul moss came into the studio to talk me through developments in ukraine today. this morning, we were hearing that they had been effectively encircled, surrounded by ukrainian troops, now we are hearing the russians have withdrawn to "more favourable lines", which is a euphemism if i have ever heard one. but we are seeing ukrainians waving the ukrainian flag and sticking one to the welcome sign on the outskirts of the town as if to emphasise their success.
6:09 pm
first of all, i think this is important because of the nature of this town. it is a logistical hub with very good railway connections and has been very important for the russian war effort. so basically, getting supplies in? indeed, indeed, and that's why they made such an effort to take the town back in spring. lyman was very heavily pummelled by attacks. the russians took it over. a key part of their operations since then. but also, we have to think about the timing of this, bearing in mind it was only yesterday that vladimir putin had this grand ceremony in moscow where he announced that annexation that you mentioned, and he said very grandly that the people in these areas will be russian citizens forever, and he also said that they would use all our strength and means to defend these areas. well, if all their strength and means ends up with a defeat only 24 hours later, it certainly doesn't look good. the optics, as they say, are bad, as indeed is the strategic defeat. what is happening elsewhere? there are reports of planes coming down on runways at one airport and interesting suggestions about what may be happening in crimea as well.
6:10 pm
well, this is a developing story. belbek is an airfield just outside sebastopol, the biggest city in occupied ukraine, and there has been what looked to me like an explosion. i cannot be sure. i saw some footage and photographs. the governor of crimea has said that a plane overshot the runway. this is possible, but let's bear in mind there have been several attacks inside crimea by ukrainian forces which ukraine claimed. in august and september, they managed to destroy russian military aircraft on the ground. at the time, the russian military offered, i'm sure with black humour, their idea of a threat. they said the weather is going to be hot in crimea. there has been speculation that there may be ukrainian partisans operating behind enemy lines in crimea. if this is an attack, it may genuinely be an accident, but if this is an attack,
6:11 pm
again, it genuinely does look very bad for russia, on this weekend of all weekends, when they are crowing about their success in annexing these four places. 0ne kind of potentially alarming development came almost simultaneously with the annexation announcement, which were reports that the director of the zaporizhzhia nuclear plant had effectively been abducted whilst he was driving into work. this has been confirmed. the russians have certainly said he was taken. quite why, we are not sure. it is still unclear if he remains in custody, but this caused a great deal of alarm. ukraine and ukrainian nuclear energy people saying, look, this man is in charge of operations at zaporizhzhia and things could go very awry if he is not released. it is still not clear why they took him. we know there has been a lot of conflicts within a lot of conflict within the zaporizhzhia plant. there were reports of staff there being forced to work against their will, threats against them, but clearly,
6:12 pm
anything to do with this nuclear plant causes alarm, and when the boss goes missing, you start worrying. 0ur original europe editor paul moss, talking about the developments in ukraine today. —— regional. the prime minister liz truss has admitted there has been "disruption" in the uk economy following the mini—budget last week. the government unveiled £45 billion of tax cuts funded by borrowing but did not accompany it with the usual economic assessment of the plans. this worried investors. it comes as the conservative party conference is set to get underway in birmingham. 0ur deputy political editor vicki young is there. forgive me, it is ben wright who is there. then, iam forgive me, it is ben wright who is there. then, i am so sorry about that. the script was wrong. i should have looked at the camera, shouldn't i? yes, and we are told that liz truss is imminent. there we go. i got the
6:13 pm
name of the corresponded and the place wrong. it is the tories, isn't it? ., �* ., , place wrong. it is the tories, isn't it? ., , ~ it? you've got the right party! and liz truss is — it? you've got the right party! and liz truss is on _ it? you've got the right party! and liz truss is on her _ it? you've got the right party! and liz truss is on her way _ it? you've got the right party! and liz truss is on her way and - it? you've got the right party! and liz truss is on her way and at - it? you've got the right party! and liz truss is on her way and at anyl liz truss is on her way and at any moment will be arriving at the conference hotel. the conference doesn't actually get going properly until the afternoon, about 4pm, she won't make her speech as prime ministers until wednesday, so quite a long time that she will be here, and quite a lot of opportunities to ask questions of her own government ministers about precisely what is going on at the moment after what has clearly been a tumultuous and chaotic few days for the government. normally, you would expect a new tory leader in thejob normally, you would expect a new tory leader in the job for only four weeks, really, to arrive at their first conference in a sort of celebrate are removed, but that is absolutely not the atmosphere, i imagine, that she will find here, for all the reasons that you discussed in your introduction,
6:14 pm
sean. this is a very wobbly party right now, and that fiscal statement by the chancellor a week ago has really caused a lot of turmoil within the party. we can see liz truss arriving now. let's see if she says any words. evening, prime minister. as your party— evening, prime minister. as your party behind _ evening, prime minister. as your party behind you? _ ' 7 party behind you. are _ party behind you? are you _ party behind you? are you losing - party behind you? j are you losing the party behind you? - are you losing the support party behind you? _ are you losing the support of party behind you? — are you losing the support of tory mps, _ are you losing the support of tory mps. prime — are you losing the support of tory mps, prime minister? _ mps, prime minister? ben, _ mps, prime minister? ben, 6_ mps, prime minister? ben, a broad - mps, prime minister? ben, a broad smile i mps, prime minister? i ben, a broad smile and mps, prime minister? - ben, a broad smile and then a mps, prime minister? _ ben, a broad smile and then a kiss for the representative of the volunteers who organise the party conference every year. so we got a big smile but no answer to the question. would you say, is it fair to suggest that today's article by the prime minister represents something of a shift in acknowledging that it wasn't kind of coincidental that there was this volatility after the budget happens?
6:15 pm
yes, andi yes, and i think that was echoed by simon clarke, in the interview that he did, where he admitted that it was contentious, the package of proposals that he put forward. but you got no sense from liz truss either from that interview or from simon clarke that they are considering any shift in the course this government is on. they consider the way to achieve economic growth is through tax cuts, significant deregulation and what they call supply—side reforms, and i think you are going to hear them double down on that message over the course of the next few days, but there is, you heard it in the question shouted at the prime minister, great uncertainty and concern within the conservative party about this. a number of people i have talked to, former cabinet ministers, said yesterday it was just completely irresponsible and reckless to make a statement like that with the scale of tax changes that they were
6:16 pm
proposing without any justification for how the money would be found eventually, without sort of rolling the pitch beforehand. it wasjust a blunderbuss, they said, and it was no surprise the markets reacted with the shock they did. so i think there is a job to do here in terms of trying to spell out for the tory party what their plan for growth would involve, to restore some sense of fiscal credibility, and to repair a political situation which with the tory party is clearly pretty bleak at the moment. there polling numbers have plummeted, and i think a lot of tory members are voting with their feet right now are not turning up in birmingham. a number of big names are skipping this conference and will not turn up at all. we are told among them is rishi sunak, the former chancellor responsible for the downfall of borisjohnson, responsible for the downfall of boris johnson, whose responsible for the downfall of borisjohnson, whose defenestration led to the vacancy. but this ought
6:17 pm
to be a new start for the party, not quite a new government but at least a new approach? hat quite a new government but at least a new approach?— a new approach? not a new government. _ a new approach? not a new government. certainly - a new approach? not a new government. certainly a - a new approach? not a new| government. certainly a new approach, but some of her critics or at least people who are not on board with this, perhaps are just distancing themselves from liz truss and not wanting anything to do with this. giving the space to daycare and the party out of the hole it has found itself in. i don't think there will be very easy, because there are all sorts of questions now that the government will have to answer about what their long—term plans for bringing borrowing down will amount to. the question too which i'm sure will be asked a lot over the next few days, which is what the implications for their tax plans have for public spending, and again, you heard that interview with simon clarke, a recognition that in his view, public spending needs to work in tandem with tax cuts, which is not a particularly subtle and coded way of saying that there will have
6:18 pm
to be some cuts to public spending to be some cuts to public spending to pay for the sorts of reforms the government wants to put in place. and that trade off is going to have to be something ministers start to explain at a time when public spending is already very stretched. people can see things like the health service under the huge pressures that they are. there isn't another proper spending review due until 2024-25, another proper spending review due until2024-25, but another proper spending review due until 2024—25, but between now and mid november when the chancellor has promised to come back to parliament with a new fiscal statement, he is going to have to work out how he's going to have to work out how he's going to have to work out how he's going to show that this jigsaw saw ads together, and how the government hoped to have the sort of growth rates at once, but in the spending envelope it has set, and what that will mean for public spending. i think that's going to be very difficult and potentially politically very contentious. and we will talk to you throughout the week. for now, thanks for whetting our appetites for a fascinating week ahead. ben wright at the conservative party conference. accept no substitutes.
6:19 pm
and the prime minister will be interviewed live on bbc one tomorrow and sunday morning with laura kuenssberg. also on the shadow chancellor, labour's rachel reeves. it begins slightly later at 0830, because of coverage of the london marathon. greater manchester police have given an update on their continuing search of saddleworth moor after suggestions that potential human remains had been found on the moors. they have just released these photos. they are looking for the remains of 12—year—old keith bennett, who was a victim of moors murderers ian brady and his partner they say they were tipped off about remains already discovered on the site. it seems to be something to do with an author that has been investigating. statement has been issued saying a job was what was said to have been found but they have found no human rain so far. the reason they have searched the area and the police moved to rapidly as
6:20 pm
the case of keith bennett. he was one of the victims of the moors murderers ian brady and myra hindley. he disappeared in 1964 in june, 12 years old at the time, while visiting his grandfather. he has never been seen since. nobody has never been seen since. nobody has been found. —— no body. brady and hindley were convicted in the 19605 and hindley were convicted in the 1960s at a crown court trial for his murder along with that of four other youngsters. his body is the one set of remains that has never been found. his mum went to her grave still hoping her son's body would be recovered. she even spoke to ian brady and made contact with him and at one point ian brady went to saddleworth moor to make an unsuccessful attempt to locate the remains. police are saying they have found nothing as yet put the investigation is continuing, and given the weather conditions, it is likely to be going on for a little while yet. tim iran now. —— to iran.
6:21 pm
there've been huge protests around the world in support of women's rights in iran after the death of mahsa amini, who died after being arrested for not covering her hair. an iranian human rights group says people in nearly 160 cities have taken to the streets in solidarity. more than 80 people are reported to have died in unrest within iran since mahsa amini's death. initially, authorities said she died of a heart attack. social media has also seen a wave of support, with men and women filming themselves cutting their hair and shaving their heads as a symbol of protest. they include nazanin zagari—ratcliffe, from london, who was imprisoned in iran for six years until she was released in march. released on the same day as nazanin was anoosheh ashoori, who's now 68, and was imprisoned in iran in 2017. tomorrow he will be running the london marathon for amnesty international in honour of those still trapped behind bars in iran. i spoke to him earlier. running and running and running
6:22 pm
until i get to the finish line! you are taking part in the london marathon. is this your first marathon? i did a half marathon on the 4th of september. how did you get on? i did it in two hours and 19 minutes. i have to say, to a man 15 years younger than you, that sounds very impressive! it is fair to say, isn't it, that it must be a slightly strange experience even now going out for a run after what you have endured in the years since your release, and the restricted physical space as well as the psychological trauma you endured. has running in any way helped you with processing that? yes, in two ways, actually. to maintain my health, and also to fight insanity, because when you do exercises, especially running, it is really helpful. how are you adapting to being back home again? because you had this long period of separation from your wife,
6:23 pm
your daughters as well. your life has been in britain for many years, hasn't it? you were only back in iran because you are visiting your parents? yes. having returned, in fact, the first four months, i think i was overwhelmed with the joy of being released, but in the past couple of months, i am getting a lot of flashbacks and anxiety attacks that i have to deal with. and that is an ongoing process? yes. and what about the impact on your family? because they went through this incredibly traumatic experience just as you did, and i am not for one minute minimising what you must have endured. one only has to read the interviews you have given to get a very small snapshot of what you had to put up with. but they had a sort of, i guess, a form of grieving almost for your absence as well. has it been a hard process to kind
6:24 pm
of re—adapt to each other? at first, let me just explain this invisible thing which i call the shrapnels of the thing that happened to us, to me, to all the inmates who are there. these shrapnels are invisible, and these are the things that hit theirfamilies, their daughters, their wives, and all their parents. i have heard of many strokes, marriages breaking up. so these are the things that you don't see, and you don't see it in the news, and the lucky ones who manage to get back to theirfamilies, it is very difficult for them to adapt to their new life. their life is not going to be what it was before. no. anoosheh ashoori. very good luck to him and all the runners taking pa rt part on sunday. another important event on sunday as
6:25 pm
