good morning. welcome to breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. our headlines today. russia is widely condemned after bombarding residential neighbourhoods in ukrainian cities, including launching missile strikes in the centre of kyiv for the first time. the number of care workers in england falls for the first time with 165,000 jobs vacant across the country. a royal takeover — the prince and princess of wales present a special edition of radio 0ne�*s newsbeat on mental health. we might run out of time and priya might say this is the worst newsbeat production or two interviewers she's ever seen. do you know what, you can come back.

is our pay keeping up with ever—rising costs? as food and energy bills continue to climb, the latest figures are expected to show another drop in the value of our wages. i'll be looking at what it all means. how tonight is set to be a huge night for both scotland and wales in their bid to qualify for the women's world cup. good morning. a cold start to the day across parts of england and wales but here we will see the lion's share of the sunshine. for scotland and northern ireland, more cloud coming into the west and in the north—west, some showery outbreaks of rain. i will have all the details later in the programme. good morning. it's tuesday, october the 11th. our main story. russia has been widely condemned after bombarding cities across ukraine, including launching missile strikes on the centre of kyiv. today liz truss will urge world leaders to remain steadfast in support of the country at a virtual meeting of the g7 which will also be attended by ukraine's president,

volodymyr zelensky. officials say at least 14 people are known to have died after russia launched more than 80 missiles at sites across the country yesterday. vincent mcaviney has this report. the clean up in kyiv after president putin's dawn retaliation. the russian leader, embarrassed by the successful weekend attack on his bridge from occupied crimea to russia, pummeled ordinary ukrainian neighbourhoods as people prepared for a new week. playgrounds, parks and homes were all hit. 14 people died and dozens more were injured. ukraine says around half of the 83 missiles launched by russia were shot down. later today, at a virtual meeting of the g7, to be attended by president zelensky, prime minister liz truss will urge fellow leaders to stay the course with ukraine in its battle against russia's brutality. in his nightly address,

the ukrainian leader was defiant. translation: ukraine cannot be intimidated. | it can only be more united. ukraine cannot be stopped. it can only be more convinced that the terrorists need to be neutralised. at the united nations in new york, the general assembly held an emergency meeting to discuss the strikes and putin's illegal annexation of eastern regions after his so—called referendums. deliberate targeting of civilians is a war crime. by launching missile attacks on civilians sleeping in their homes or rushing to work, children going to schools, russia has proven once again that it is a terrorist state that must be deterred in the strongest possible ways. but later today, sirjeremy fleming, the head of britain's signals intelligence service, gchq, will say in a speech, despite this latest aggression, russian forces are desperate,

exhausted and running out of ammunition. singing. for ordinary ukrainians forced again into shelters, that might be a hopeful insight. but many months into this war, they'll be hoping foreign leaders will redouble their efforts to bring this conflict to an end. vincent mcaviney, bbc news. let's get more now from our correspondent, hugo bachega, who joins us from ukraine's capital, kyiv. 0nce once again you had to go underground because the sirens have sounded. how are things? because the sirens have sounded. how are thins? ,., ., because the sirens have sounded. how are thins? _, ., ., because the sirens have sounded. how are thins? ,., ., ., , , are things? good morning, yes, we are things? good morning, yes, we are broadcasting _ are things? good morning, yes, we are broadcasting from _ are things? good morning, yes, we are broadcasting from the - are things? good morning, yes, we are broadcasting from the car - are things? good morning, yes, we are broadcasting from the car parkl are broadcasting from the car park in our hotel, the shelter in our hotel, just five minutes ago we were getting ready to broadcast from our live position when the air raid sirens went off, so we are here in the car park again. this is

happening 2a hours after those air strikes that hit several cities across the country including here, the capital, kyiv. i was broadcasting live yesterday at a location close to our hotel in the city centre when it was attacked, so we understand the air raid sirens have gone off in cities across the country and obviously yesterday many cities were attacked, kyiv, zaporizhzhia, kharkiv, the countries second largest city. 14 people have been killed, 97 injured as a result of those attacks, and yesterday we heard from president zelensky who gave his evening address at the site of one of those attacks here in the centre of kyiv. he said ukraine would not be intimidated. and he said that russia had carried out those strikes yesterday during the morning rush hour on purpose. he said it was a typical terrorist

tactic, so again, this morning, there is the fear more attacks could come as the air raid sirens have gone off in cities across the country. at gone off in cities across the count . �* . , gone off in cities across the count .�* ., i, ,, ., country. a really stressful time for eo - le in country. a really stressful time for peeple in the _ country. a really stressful time for people in the capital— country. a really stressful time for people in the capital kyiv - country. a really stressful time for people in the capital kyiv and - country. a really stressful time for| people in the capital kyiv and those other cities you mentioned as they deal with this ongoing threat. it must be exhausting for them? absolutely. i think you're in kyiv there was a sense that the city was relatively safe. the city hadn't been attacked for quite some time. it is away from the front line, so there was a sense of weird normal, restaurants and bars open, busy, streets were relatively busy, as well, so for many people here, those attacks came as a shock and those were the worst attacks by air since the first days of the war. not only kyiv with attack and also the city of lviv in the west of the country close to the polish border as well as cities like kharkiv and

zaporizhzhia, which has become a frequent target by russian forces and we understand local authorities say the city was hit again by shelling overnight. a city very close to the front line there in the south of the country, which has been frequently targeted in recent weeks. 0k, hugo, stay safe and we must speak to later in the programme. thank you. the government will have to find spending cuts of more than £60 billion to meet targets to get the public finances back under control, according to the institute for fiscal studies — a leading economic research group. chancellor kwasi kwarteng is due to set out his economic plan, explaining how the government will get debt falling, on october 31st. the ifs says it's not possible to deliver cuts on that scale through "trimming the fat" and that it would require major cuts to public services. the chancellor says he wants to get the public finances on a sustainable basis. it looks to us like that's going to mean tens of billions

of pounds of spending cuts in order to achieve that. it's hard to see what other way out the chancellor has. mps return to parliament today, a week earlier than planned with the government facing mounting pressure from labour to reconsider its mini budget. 0ur political correspondent iain watson is in westminster. good morning. iain, what can we expect to hear from the government today? good morning, sadly, yes, westminster is return to westminster after the party conference season. there were divisions openly on display of course but there will be an early win for liz truss because today mps will vote on reversing rishi sunak�*s rise in national insurance. labour back to that, but as you were saying, they also say the mini budget which included that measure should be reversed because it could lead to big spending cuts further down the line. they are

concerned especially about stopping a big increase in tax for big businesses. but i think liz truss has more to fear from some of their own mps than from labour. some of them are concerned that she could be tempted for example to increase benefits in line with earnings, with prices, meaning a cut in real terms. she meets a cabinet this morning, a group of their own backbench mps, during the course of this week, and addressing a big meeting of those mps tomorrow so she will be under pressure on that issue. downing street says she is a listing more and this will be a charm offensive they say, but the key task for heroes to make her mps are charmed more than offended.— the former shadow transport minister, sam tarry, has become the first labour mp to be deselected in their own constituency in more than a decade. he was fired from labour's front bench after giving broadcast interviews from a rail worker's picket line injuly. the vote by party members means mr tarry, an ex—trade union official, will not stand

as ilford south's labour candidate at the next general election. the uk's highest court will hear arguments today on whether holyrood can set up a scottish independence referendum without the agreement of westminster. scotland's first minister nicola sturgeon, wants to hold the vote in october next year, but downing street has opposed this. the scottish and uk governments will make their cases to the supreme court in london as part of the two—day hearing. but it could take weeks or months for a judgment to be reached. we've been following the story of the three dads — mike, andy and tim — who have become friends through their campaign for suicide prevention to be included in the national curriculum after their daughters took their own lives. their petition now has more than 112,000 signatures which means it will now be considered for debate by mps in the house of commons.

yesterday, they finished their latest challenge walking 600 miles between all four parliaments in the uk. it's just unbelievable. absolutely unbelievable. i think where we started from for ourselves personally, that position of devastation, you know, years ago, not knowing how you're going to rebuild your lives, to end up in a position where you know you can actually make a difference. we haven't yet, but things are moving in the right direction, aren't they? incredible to see that petition going higher and higher and incredible to see that petition going higherand higherand higher. 32000 and then on air itjumped by about six or 8000, now they are well over the 100,000 they needed. amazing. they would being honoured last night at that award ceremony in london for people who have raised money and awareness for all kinds of causes across the country. what a gathering that must have been. now the weather with carol.

good morning both an good morning to you too. it's a chilly start to the day for many of us. particularly so across central, southern and eastern areas where there is a touch of frost but it's chilly in belfast, and something to bear in mind if you're stepping out. this is where we got clearer skies. we start off on a sunny note. the higher temperatures are where we've got the cloud and some rain for the rain coming across northern and western scotland and northern ireland as they go through the day but some brighter skies east of northern ireland and also eastern scotland although later as the breeze picks up, we can see the odd shower driven across. temperatures 10—16. through this evening and overnight under clear skies once again in the south—eastern quarter of the country, it will be a cold night with a touch of frost, fog patches forming as well but we've got thick cloud and rain coming in from the west and gusty winds bringing the rain. across western scotland, a

whole not, pushing southwards and eastwards. you can see the progress it makes tomorrow. moving eventually out of western scotland come out of northern ireland, and ahead of it, after the bright start, in southern england, the cloud will build and we will see one or two showers but this band of rain is weakening all the time. on the other side to scotland and northern ireland, as we go through the day, it will brighten up. the wind will ease and there will be some sunshine. temperatures tomorrow, 12—18. if you're looking for more substantial rain across southern england and south wales, it looks like it's coming our way on thursday. looks like it's coming our way on thursda . . ~ looks like it's coming our way on thursda . ., ~ , ., looks like it's coming our way on thursda . ., ~' , ., , looks like it's coming our way on thursda . ., ~ , . thursday. thank you very much indeed. thursday. thank you very much indeed- we _ thursday. thank you very much indeed. we will— thursday. thank you very much indeed. we will get _ thursday. thank you very much indeed. we will get more - thursday. thank you very much l indeed. we will get more details from you later. the number of care workers in england has fallen for the first time, leaving more people without the support they need according to new figures. unfilled care jobs rose by 52% in a year, the fastest rate on record. 0ur social affairs editor, alison holt has this report. james waterhouse is settling into his new rented home in rotherham.

he wouldn't have been able to afford to move here if he hadn't given up thejob he loved working in a care home with people with dementia. it was the firstjob i had where i was thinking, you know, i'm actually good at this. i'm making a difference. he is one of many who, according to today's report, are leaving jobs in adult social care. he was paid the minimum wage. even when he was working as the senior person in charge overnight, he only got an extra £3 for the whole 12—hour shift. working with the elderly and knowing that i've helped improve some lives somewhere and knowing that i can't do that now unless i have to make massive personal sacrifices to do that is wrong. it shouldn't be that people shouldn't be having to make sacrifices in their own lives, you know, in terms of, you know, struggling to pay bills, struggling to buy food and things like that. by moving to a job working with children, he was immediately paid £2 an hour more.

when it comes to the shortage of care workers, it is really difficult to grasp the scale of the problem. well, we're here in rotherham and 110,000 people live in the town itself. that is roughly the number of vacancies there were in social care last year. well, this year there are 165,000 emptyjobs. that is a record 52% increase in care job vacancies in england in one year. despite more older or disabled people needing support, the number of people actually working in care has fallen for the first time, dropping by 50,000. and there are particular concerns about the difficulty of recruiting young people and nurses to care jobs. behind all of those statistics are people's lives, and so i think we need to have the conversation about what social care looks like in the future because it's having an impact on people's lives today

and social care doesn't exist without the workforce. the government says it is putting record extra funding into social care, including money for the recruitment and training of staff. alison holt, bbc news. let's take a look at some of today's papers. nearly all of them focus on the trial of nurse lucy letby, who is accused of murdering seven babies and attempting to murder another ten at the countess of chester hospital. she denies the charges and the trial continues at manchester crown court. the mail also covers that trial on its front page but its lead story focuses on the terrible events in ukraine yesterday, with a first hand account from a journalist in the city of dnipro, which was struck by a barrage of russian missiles. the guardian reports on president zelensky�*s response to those events, reporting that he is set to demand more military and diplomatic

support from g7 leaders. and one of the most watched stories on the bbc news website is the eruption of a volcano on italy's stromboli island. it's one of the most active volcanoes in the world and has been regularly erupting since 1932. that's just what we need, isn't it? not anything else now. i don't think we can take any more bad news. i'm going to bring you some good news. in the telegraph today they are saying baby talk you know when you talk to a baby and make noises, that sort of thing, is that what you do? just generally, notjust babies! it's the same across the world so it doesn't matter what language you speak. no matter where you are in the world, baby talk is a universal language and everybody talks on a slightly higher pitch, and in a singsong way so it is a bit more melodic and more about the pitch and sounding a little bit musical which is common wherever you are in the world no matter what language you

actually speak. that's really interesting. the sounds we use are so different. higher pitch, more melodic and it soothes the baby so it does work. i suppose it makes sense. i saw this picture of sarah jessica parkerfrom sex and sense. i saw this picture of sarah jessica parker from sex and the city in new york carrying a pigeon. isn't that lovely? i thought how lovely and how kind of her to look after not pigeon. it is not a pigeon. it is of course, a handbag. no, it's a real handbag and they are calling it a fashion "coo!" in the daily mail today. you can put things inside and it selling for $650 a bag. the stars in new york one to one. do you think i should get one? do you remember the story we did about the racing pigeon which stowed aboard a boat and made it to new york? i thought

that was one of those racing pigeons that was one of those racing pigeons that no, it's a handbag. can you imagine walking down fifth ave? can you get anything in it? you open up the wing and put your wallet inside. i'm not sure about that. get a mouse wallet to go inside it. everything can be combined. the prince and princess of wales have recorded a special edition of radio 0ne's newsbeat, speaking about the importance of mental health. the royals took on roles as reporters to hear the experiences of four guests for world mental health day yesterday. let's take a look. how are you doing? no, really. how are you doing? it's a simple enough question, but one that can spark a really meaningful conversation. yesterday was world mental health day, and as part of a special recording, we had two very special newsbeat reporters to help. thanks, priya. it's great to be here

on world mental health day. we'rejoined by four young people who are doing amazing things on mental health. i was diagnosed with schizophrenia, and emotional unstable personality disorder when i was a teenager around the ages of 15, 16. a lot of it came from, you know, coming from an african background, mental health isn't a topic of discussion. it's not something i was aware of or had any knowledge of. and so we are only sort of helped when we are at crisis point because it's a thing i call over—resilience. we've been made to be so over resilient that we push away those vulnerabilities and those weaknesses. the last time we were here was to launch the heads together campaign, which was to get people to start opening up and talking about mental health. since then, obviously we've had the pandemic and everything like that. do you feel that there's been a sort of a shift in what people are speaking about around mental health? yeah, and i think especially we're seeing the younger generation, my generation and younger coming up, definitely less scared to talk

about mental health and it's becoming more acceptable. and i think through the pandemic, there was a lot around feeling lonely, and, you know, a lot of us were isolated, in our houses by ourselves. there was a lot of students who were literally in small university accommodations by themselves through that time. and talking about feeling lonely and what that can then lead to, i think because it's become such a universal feeling that a lot of people have grouped together, you know, we all feel lonely right now, especially during that time, or we're all lacking the connections that maybe we need. and so i think when we're all feeling the same thing and we start to admit that, it makes it easier then for more people to say, "oh, yeah, me too." that's one of the messages we were trying to encourage, this fact that everyone has mental health. absolutely. and in the same way as their physical health, we have to look after it. in the same way we go to the gym, we need to look

after and nurture our minds as well. as you were saying, it's really important to reach out and connect with people. some people actually express it through music or through art or through other forms of expression. it's a really great way, isn't it, of experiencing mental health? absolutely. self—care is being unapologetic about what you need, and it could be all these fun things, like giving yourself an hour of gaming or going to the theatre. but it can also be giving yourself permission to say that you're not coping and to ask someone what to do. and abigail, just maybe we could touch on... i liken a lot of the work we've done on mental health and listened to lots of people talk about is everyone likes a tool box, particularly for men. a tool box is quite a useful analogy to kind of use. how much in your work do you see... because you alluded to the fact that big family networks and support networks around people are really important, but a lot of people don't realise what they need until it actually comes along. you can be living one life one minute and something massively

changes and you realise you don't have the tools or the experience to be able to tackle that. i to have, i suppose, in your tool. box, communication would be key. and i think some of the myth—busting as well around attachment. _ we know now through studies that actually any parent who spends . a significant amount of time, l or any caregiver, with the child will also form similar attachments and have those similar— patterns as well. i'd love to know, and, priya, maybe the listeners also would be interested as well, is knowing, how do you look after your own mental health? that's a big question. i know not every day is going to be roses and sunflowers. i know some days i'm going to have to push against the clouds to see that sun again. and, you know, i know that when you have a bad day, it doesn't mean it will be a bad week or a bad month. so that's the type of awareness i'm talking about, you know, coming to accept these things. because when you can accept these things and you know, on your bad day, what you have to remember is to remain humble and,

you know, stay hopeful. you know, you can't always run away from it. it'sjust sometimes you have to really face them and conquer them. and so, you know, with practice, there's progress. and that's, i guess, in a nutshell, that was a big question... sorry! there's no right or wrong, that's the thing as well. different things will work for different people and it's just sometimes trying, isn't it, as well? that's it, yeah. different methods, different opportunities that arise as well to help best support you. exactly. i'm conscious we might run out| of time and priya might say this is the worst newsbeat production i by two interviewers she's ever seen! do you know what, you can come back! this seat, i've kept it warm, i think you've done a very good job. you can come back, carry on! well, as we said at the start of the special newsbeat, . this is all about having - a meaningful conversation on mental health. but it shouldn't stop here. yeah, absolutely. because talking about mental health is so important. and it's definitely the first step for us, all of us, to keep talking, having those conversations and reaching out for help. you can hear the full programme

at 12:45 tomorrow on radio 1, 1xtra and asian network. if you've been affected by any of the issues raised, you can find help and support at bbc.co.uk/action line. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london, with me, alison earle. the labour mp for ilford south, sam tarry has been de—selected in a vote by local members. it comes after he was sacked from his role as shadow transport minister for giving interviews on a rail strike picket line injuly. he was defeated by the jas athwal, the leader of redbridge council. if i'm really so happy, but i must say, the team around me, the people who gathered around me, who carried me on the journey, i owe it all to the people, the good people of ilford south and ilford north who came out

in their droves to help. and this is a people powered, people powered canvassing session, campaign, i'm really pleased that we've managed to pull this off. a elderly woman from east london was sent a water bill which said she'd consumed the equivalent of a million cups of tea in six months. 98—year—old estelle mendoza's monthly charge increased from £33 to £215. thames water has now apologised for any distress caused. it was only spotted when estelle's son checked her bill. in this case my mother could have been lying dead, u nless unless you had giant street parties that she was painful, there was no way it could be true. —— that she was paying for. really, really bad service. if i ran a business like this, i'd be out of business. the number of primary school places in islington could be cut because of falling numbers of pupils applying.

the council are looking to consult primary schools after a reduction of 300 children across all year groups last year. it's believed schools across the capital are seeing a dip in numbers due to fewer children being born, less migration since brexit and more families movng out of london. travel now... there's severe delays on the elizabeth line between liverpool street and shenfield. there's no service on the 0verground between romford and upminster. now the weather with sara. good morning to you. as promised, a really chilly start this morning across london and the south east. in our suburbs, the temperatures are in low single figures at the moment. the clear skies overnight in the light winds giving us that. but after that chilly start, a lovely day in prospect once more, dry with lots of that lovely autumn sunshine. having had the chilly start, the temperatures will recover back up into the mid—teens. 61 in fahrenheit. 0vernight tonight, we are dry

and clear at first, again those temperatures will fall away. by the end of the night we do have a bit more in the way of cloud filtering in from the west. it will be a chilly start tomorrow morning, perhaps not quite as cold as this morning. really the story for the next couple of days is, we have got a couple of weather fronts trying to push through, particularly through thursday morning. an area of wet and windy weather sweeping across the southern counties. behind it for friday, things will be a little bit drier. but today is the day with the reliable autumn sunshine. those temperatures again into the mid—teens quite typically, and then tomorrow, a few showers and wet and windy for a time on thursday. if you missed tottenham star harry kane's big debut on cbeebies, head over to our website for all the details. that's it for now. i'm back in around half an hour. hello, this is breakfast with sally nugent and jon kay. coming up on breakfast this morning. we'll hear how a boom in community orchards is bringing back hundreds of forgotten varieties

of british apple. it's a0 years since henry viii's favourite ship was raised from the sea bed where it lay for more than 400 years. we'll be in portsmouth where she's on display. on a mission to inspire a future generation of scientists and astronauts, the sky at night presenter dr maggie aderin—pocock will be joining us to talk about her new children's book. as the price of living continues to impact us all, we'll get an update in the next hour on whether wages are keeping up with rising costs. we will have lots of important economic numbers this morning, it will give us estate of things. yes, this is the monthly update from the office for national statistics.

lots of numbers but crucially tell us how our wages relate to the rising average prices. inflation is at the highest level for nearly a0 years. in september, prices were almost 10% higher than they were a year before. so something that would have cost you £1,12 months ago, would now cost you £1.10. when you take that into account, in real terms, wages are falling. excluding bonuses, if you're lucky enough to get one, wages have fallen by almost 3%. that means if you're taking home £20,000 a year it might feel like you've got £560 less to spend this year than last. we spoke to people in london, who told us how they're coping. i feel the pinch with the prices in the store and, you know, everywhere, kind of thing. so it's stopped up from filling up our car as frequently as we used

to do, so we probably fill it up once a month now and drive a lot less now as compared to what we used to do. i kind of work for myself, so i set a rate, but to put that rate up, you are doing that on people who are already looking at other things being put up in the lives. so for me, as a kind of self—employed person, i don't really want to be putting my prices up for the people when they are already going to have other things to pay for, higher gas or electricity. i i would say, you do see the extra £5| or £10 that comes onto your shopping when you're buying groceries, and when you're _ going out in general. i guess it is kind of— understanding how to manage the new economy that is around us. i'd got to the point now where i never had these worries, i'm going to be very honest. but now i definitely do, i go for the cheaper brands. it could be their own brands, i don't go for heinz tomato ketchup any more.

the issue of rising prices and falling wages is one of the big reasons for the many strikes we've seen this year. rail workers, bus drivers and royal mail staff are preparing for more walk outs this month. yesterday, criminal barristers voted to accept a 15% pay increase, ending their strike. nearly a00,000 people on the real living wage have also received an inflation—busting increase of more than 10%. the real living wage is different to the government's national living wage and businesses have no obligation to pay it. we went to one business which has been trying it out. the living wage rate went up from £9.90 to £10.90 last week, it was announced last week, we are introducing that this month. we see a value in that, and it brings out the best in our staff. it increases productivity, makes us more efficient. so we're quite happy to do that.

me and the mrs are doing the weekly shop, and over the past month, month and a half, we have noticed how much more we are spending on things like bread, butter, milk. yeah, it'sjust basic items. even hygiene items like deodorant, shower gel, shampoo. the wage rise has helped. it means that we are not going to struggle. just changed our shopping habits, going around, - trying to find cheaper- supermarkets, cheaper brands. it's not always the best _ but with a pay rise we can go back, have a bit more luxury. pay itioi’e, you get more loyal staff, they're eager to come into work, i they're happier to come into work | rather thanjust sitting at home. i we have been fortunate to be able to pass some of the costs onto the customers, but like many other businesses, we've taken the hit ourselves in some respects as well.

what we didn't realise at the time was, we were actually saving money. one of the things it did was make us more productive, it cut down the absenteeism days. and if you work on the basis that each absentee day costs you £161, we made a saving in excess of £80,000 by paying staff more. we made a saving in excess of £18,000 by paying staff more. we'll get an update on those figures from the 0ns at 7am. i will be back with those as soon as we have got them. once we have made since then, we will come back. we might think, if prices are going up, why not give people the bigger wage increases? if businesses pay staff more, they have got to make that back so maybe they put prices up and i make things even more expensive thatis i make things even more expensive that is cycle to avoid. will drill down into all of that later.

the government is facing increasing pressure from the labour party to reconsider its mini budget as mps return to parliament today. the institute for fiscal studies, a leading economic research group, say the government will have to find spending cuts of more than £60 billion to fund its plans. we're joined now by the shadow chief secretary to the treasury, pat mcfadden. good morning, mr mcfadden. as everybody starts talking about this face—to—face, ijust everybody starts talking about this face—to—face, i just want to talk to you a little bit in a bit more detail about what exactly it is that the labour party is calling for. we note that you are calling for the government to further reverse the mini budget, the prime minister has already abandoned plans to scrap the a5p top rate of tax, the chancellor bringing forward his plans to bring the fiscal plans to october 31. what is the rest of the stuff you think

they should be doing? the? is the rest of the stuff you think they should be doing?— is the rest of the stuff you think they should be doing? they are going to have to revisit _ they should be doing? they are going to have to revisit all _ they should be doing? they are going to have to revisit all of _ they should be doing? they are going to have to revisit all of this. - to have to revisit all of this. ministers have got themselves into a real mess here. what has happened since the mini budget a couple of weeks ago is there has been market chaos, with a decline in the value of the pound, a special bank of england intervention to prop up the pension system, and rocketing mortgage rates where the average two—year fixed mortgage rates where the average two—yearfixed rate mortgage is now over 6%, which is the highest it has been for about 15 years. and now, what the government seems to be intent on doing, to make up for this market chaos, is to introduce a whole series of public spending cuts to make users of public services pay the price of their mistakes. that's the price of their mistakes. that's the wrong approach. it's time to press pause on this, rather than doing more damage and revisit the economic decisions that caused the chaos in the first place.—

chaos in the first place. which of those economic _ chaos in the first place. which of those economic decisions - chaos in the first place. which of those economic decisions would | chaos in the first place. which of. those economic decisions would you change? those economic decisions would you chan . e? ., , ., those economic decisions would you chance? .,, ., ., those economic decisions would you chance? ., ., ., ., . change? there was a lot announced in the package — change? there was a lot announced in the package a — change? there was a lot announced in the package a couple _ change? there was a lot announced in the package a couple of— change? there was a lot announced in the package a couple of weeks - change? there was a lot announced in the package a couple of weeks ago. i the package a couple of weeks ago. and it's actually notjust a measure of going through a checklist one by one, because what has happened, what has caused the chaos, is the scale of borrowing required to fund a whole series of unfunded tax changes, and in the chancellor compounded the damage by saying he would do more, there would be more unfunded tax cuts. and they did it all without asking their own office for budget responsibility to produce a forecast, which is something else which has spooked the markets. we can go to the checklist one by one but to be honest, that isn't the point. the point is the scale of what they did and the direction of travel, and it's those two things together that have really spooked the markets and caused this huge spike in mortgage rates. let’s the markets and caused this huge spike in mortgage rates. let's not to spike in mortgage rates. let's not go through _ spike in mortgage rates. let's not go through the — spike in mortgage rates. let's not go through the whole _ spike in mortgage rates. let's not go through the whole checklist. spike in mortgage rates. let's not| go through the whole checklist but let's go through the two things, would you reverse the cuts to income

tax and national insurance? h0. would you reverse the cuts to income tax and national insurance?— tax and national insurance? no, we wouldn't. tax and national insurance? no, we wouldn't- why _ tax and national insurance? no, we wouldn't. why is _ tax and national insurance? no, we wouldn't. why is that? _ tax and national insurance? no, we wouldn't. why is that? because - tax and national insurance? no, we wouldn't. why is that? because we | wouldn't. why is that? because we don't think that _ wouldn't. why is that? because we don't think that putting _ wouldn't. why is that? because we don't think that putting the - don't think that putting the national insurance rise on working people in the middle of the cost of living crisis was the right thing to do. but as i say, it's not any single measure in this which is really spooking the markets, what has caused the spike in mortgage rate and what has punted the government to try and make up for the mess they have caused by a whole series of public spending cuts if the package in the round. the package in the round has done that, not one single measure within it. so we have got people at home this morning watching who are probably panicking about their fuel bills, cost of living, how much they will pay their mortgage. in this situation, what would a labour government to be doing instead? the answer is, government to be doing instead? tue: answer is, we government to be doing instead? tte: answer is, we would government to be doing instead? tt2 answer is, we would not have done this package, we would not have announced this. the government already rightly had to announce a

big intervention to help people with energy prices. that was big intervention to help people with energy prices. that was necessary because people simply could not afford the kind of energy price rises announced by 0fgem back in august. what they have done is compounded the damage by this whole series of unfunded tax cuts which was based essentially on the idea that they would borrow money from my constituents in wolverhampton south—east for funding a tax cut for people earning over £150,000 per year, that was the heart of the package. we would not have done this because it was at a time when inflation was already high and they were taking a huge risk with public finances. that's not something we said after the event, i said that before the chancellor even got to his feet a couple of weeks ago. what they need to do now instead of compounding the damage through a whole series of public service cuts which will simply cause more pain to the nhs, to schools and other

essential public services, is to revisit the mistakes that caused the damage of the first place, rather than doubling down and causing more damage. d0 than doubling down and causing more damaue. ,, than doubling down and causing more damaue. i. ., than doubling down and causing more damate. ., , than doubling down and causing more damaue. ., , ., , damage. do you not see that it is the tax cut _ damage. do you not see that it is the tax cut which _ damage. do you not see that it is the tax cut which was _ damage. do you not see that it is the tax cut which was unfunded i the tax cut which was unfunded borrowing which spooked the markets, why would you not reverse that? because we don't... there was a whole series of tax cuts, a a5 billion package. each element of thatis billion package. each element of that is only one part of it. it's the scale of what they did in the round which has spooked the markets. if you ask me about specifics, we always said that the government should not be raising national insurance on working people in the middle of the cost of living crisis. it is not taking national insurance rates back to the level we were in march which has spooked the market, it is the package in the round which has done that which is why they need to revisit it. we has done that which is why they need to revisit it. ~ ., ., has done that which is why they need to revisit it— to revisit it. we have to talk about strike action _ to revisit it. we have to talk about strike action continuing _ to revisit it. we have to talk about strike action continuing across - to revisit it. we have to talk about strike action continuing across all| strike action continuing across all sorts of different sectors as

this evening. what a huge night it is for both wales and scotland as both go in search of a place at the women's world cup in australia and new zealand next year. for wales, they've faced two matches already which manager gemma grainger called the biggest in their history, the first to reach the play—offs and the second was last week as they won in extra time to face switzerland in zurich this evening. it's a complicated qualification process but a two—goal win in normal time should be enough for them to reach their first ever world cup. if we do win this game and we do qualify for the next stage, that's an incredible moment for us. you know, we've made history already, but i think it's almost really important to know that if we don't and we're not successful, this campaign isn't a failure, you know. for us, both on and off the pitch, we're really clear about why we do what we do, and off the pitch, how we've inspired the crowd, the attendances, and everything that's grown the game we've got to be really proud of that. but from an on—the—pitch perspective, we are right on track for a team who is going to qualify for a major tournament, so if it's not this time, it will be next time. and it's a similar story for scotland as they look

to reach their second world cup. they are also potentially 90 minutes away from the world cup. the scots host republic of ireland at hampden with the winners in the frame to go straight to next year's tournament in australia and new zealand. it's an opportunity to obviously move forward in the game. an incredible opportunity for all of us to be involved and play at a world cup. and inspire a generation of players and make the game better, so that's the challenge and that's how we see the game. so often a man to produce a big goal in his playing days, now a manager, steven gerrard has challenged his players to start delivering more for aston villa. 1—1 they drew with nottingham forest that still leaves them looking down the table rather than up. forest took the lead in this one. that didn't last though a goal from ashley young pulling them level. both managers under pressure.

the draw ends a run of five defeats for cooper's side whilst villa remain 16th. a day after driver max verstappen won a second f1 title his red bull team have been found guilty of breaking the sport's budget cap. the team were found to have exceeded the £11a million limit last year. the season of course, one of the most memorable in history, when verstappen pipped lewis hamilton on the final day of the season. verstappen will keep his title. and that comes as the elite series in women's motorsport, the w—series, will not finish its season because of financial difficulties. contrast the two, formula 1, the money being spent on air and the financial difficulties facing other sports at the moment. carol promised us sunshine, no, it

was rain, wasn't it? good morning! i promised you both, so you are right in both ways! there will be some sunshine and some rain today. that is going to be all week. the one thing you will notice this morning as he stepped out inside, it is cold, rural areas is cold enough for some frost to but out towards the west where we have some cloud, temperatures are significantly higher. cold and frosty for some and we are looking at patchy mist and fog. at the other end of the country, north and west of scotland and northern ireland, more cloud and showery outbreaks of rain. breezy, eastern scotland and the east of northern ireland seeing something brighter. across the west of england and wales, more cloud in the west, hence the higher temperatures. where we have got the clearer skies, we will see sunshine from the word go. the fog and mist lifting quite quickly. as we go through the day if anything we will see heavier rain coming in towards the west. the odd

spot towards the pennines, north—west wales, temperatures 11 to 16 degrees. 0vernight and in rural areas, temperatures wilful away to two or three degrees. mist and fog patches for bing. —— forming. when coming in and gusty across the western isles. this range thinks south we all the time, ahead of it we will start with some sunshine but ahead of it the wind will ease and we will see some sunshine return. temperatures 12 to 18 degrees. that long, hot summer heatwave seems long time ago! we were talking about how it would affect apple crops and orchards might suffering? in fact, experts are predicting a bumper harvest

of apples this year, despite the summer heatwave that damaged some crops. and although traditional orchards are in decline, there's been a rise in a new generation of community orchards set up on shared green spaces. 0ur environment correspondent helen briggs went to find out more. nothing spells autumn like apples. but gathering to share the harvest is becoming a thing of the past as traditional orchards vanish from the landscape. this orchard at swan barn farm is one of a new generation of community orchards where people club together to plant fruit trees on local green spaces. they're not connected to their computers or their mobiles or their tvs. so there's a being away from the usual hubbub of life, just coming somewhere that's beautiful, like this, outdoors. it's just that thing of all being together and there's something magical about it. and today, volunteers are turning the apples they've helped grow into freshjuice using an ancient apple press. it's a lovely place. and the trees are beautiful.

and doing something like this, you get to meet some nice, you know, it'sjust nice, sociable thing to do. what better thing to dol than be coming out here on a lovely day like today, helping the community, . helping the environment. can't be better than that, really. this has got an absolutely amazing amount of different apples. i don't know any of their names. the boom in community orchards is bringing back hundreds of forgotten varieties of british apple. here at wisley gardens in surrey, apple detectivejim arbury is on a mission to identify them. by sight, touch and taste alone, he quickly recognized two mystery varieties from swan barn farm. i think this is court pendu plat, which is an old french apple, certainly from the middle ages or possibly even roman. this summer's heat wave and drought has caused problems for crops, but apples have fared relatively well and should be particularly

sweet due to the sunshine. well, it's going to be a bumper year, so there's going to be a lot. but also importantly, it's going to be really good quality, i think. they're going to be quite firm and with good flavour and sweet, plenty of sugar in them. so that's going to give them generally good flavour. and that particularly applies to some of the later ripening apples which do need that long season to ripen and get good flavour and good, you know, good sweet apples. community orchards are born out of a desire to reconnect with nature and make the most of local food. and they're becoming all the more important as food prices soar. helen briggs, bbc news, in the surrey hills. if you've had a bumper crop of fruit this year, don't they look gorgeous? i could do with an apple — don't they look gorgeous? i could do with an apple now! _ if you've had a bumper

the mary rose remains on display at portsmouth dockyard. john's there for us this morning. incredible to see it. good morning, john. tell us about how they are going to mark this anniversary. yes. going to mark this anniversary. yes, hue da going to mark this anniversary. yes, huge day today- _ going to mark this anniversary. yes, huge day today. 40 _ going to mark this anniversary. t2: huge day today. 40 years on. just huge day today. a0 years on. just think how technology has changed over those four decades. it seems extraordinary for them to have brought up this whole ship, and it was whole, well, half of the whole, if that makes any sense, and the reason it was so well preserved is because it was below the silt and mud and away from the oxygenated water. counterintuitive to normal archaeology, the wood survived better than the metal, five decks high. the scale of the mary rose is its genre. a crew of 500 who unfortunately perished on the day she sank. it is an extraordinary sight. the reason for this white is this is what has been sprayed on in recent years to conserve it, it's a

plastic wax which means that the ship will not degrade hopefully in the future. this huge structure is the future. this huge structure is the original cradle. you will rememberfrom this the original cradle. you will remember from this pictures, the original cradle. you will rememberfrom this pictures, we all saw it on blue peter, it was bright yellow at the time. time has not been kind to it, as you can see. i wanted to point out another feature, you see those three orange squares? that is the top of the frames, the ribs of the ship of the mary rose. and those three spares, if you like, were first felt by divers at the bottom of the sea bed in the solent in 1971. it then took another 11 years for the mary rose to be brought up on this cradle from her grave. now, there is the wreck of the mary rose. it has come to the surface. there is the first sight of this flagship of henry viii. it's the first time we have seen this in 437 years. inch by inch, the ship that was the pride of henry viii's

mighty navy peeked above the waters of the solent and began to reveal her secrets. alex hildred was part of the original dive team and says, a0 years on, we're still learning about life on board. we can reconstruct their faces. we can reconstruct their lives. with dna technology, we can learn about where they were born and what colour their eyes would be if you process it enough. and our problem is, there's so much we can learn, we've got to save some things for when technology gets better so that you don't have to destroy anything. the then prince charles was present to witness his ancestor�*s flagship return to the surface. i believe she's in marvellous condition. and he was right. the half of the ship and a huge number of artifacts were preserved by centuries cocooned in mud and silt on the sea bed. can you guess what's in here? no, exciting! look at the shape of the drawer. so these are some of our tudor long bows. this is actually one of...

the ship was listed with 250 long bows. so these are some of them. we've got 130 odd that are complete out of the 250 and fragments of a bit more. when the ship was first raised, she was kept wet by spraying her timbers. but in recent years, technology has allowed for dry preservation. drying out, it can shrink by up to 50% without treatment. so it was sprayed with water for the first 12 years until we came up with a treatment, using research to be able to then preserve the ship for the future. 500 souls were lost when the ship sank during a battle with the french in 15a5. and the work goes on today to help tell their stories, alongside the history of the mary rose, providing precious insight into life almost 500 years ago.

there are around 19,000 artefacts from the ship, it isn't the ship itself, you can see when you come to the museum. chris dobbs, one of the original dive team is here. what was it like a0 years ago? you are scuba tanks for much of it? it like 40 years ago? you are scuba tanks for much of it?— tanks for much of it? yes, from 79 to 81, we tanks for much of it? yes, from 79 to 81. we were. — tanks for much of it? yes, from 79 to 81, we were, during _ tanks for much of it? yes, from 79 to 81, we were, during the - to 81, we were, during the excavation. forthe to 81, we were, during the excavation. for the salvage it was a different ball game. we had to dig tunnels under the hull so we used the same equipment, hard hats and helmets and suits and umbilical tubes to surface. that was incredible, leading up to the salvage on this day a0 years ago. you have a special memory about the ship? you have a special memory about the shi - ? , you have a special memory about the shi - ? t , , you have a special memory about the shi? t , , ., , you have a special memory about the shi? t t , ., , , ship? yes, when the ship was first checked off _ ship? yes, when the ship was first checked off the _ ship? yes, when the ship was first checked off the sea _ ship? yes, when the ship was first checked off the sea bed, - ship? yes, when the ship was first checked off the sea bed, came - ship? yes, when the ship was first i checked off the sea bed, came down to expected and i put my hand here, this is the end of the keel, so this is 35 metres to the fought far end. the whole ship was swaying so that's when we knew that the ship was in one piece and we were ready to carry

one piece and we were ready to carry on with the salvage. incredible memories from a0 years ago. extraordinary. 0ne memories from a0 years ago. extraordinary. one thing which is struck me about this is it is a living history. there is more to discover. dominicjones is the ceo here. there is more, isn't there? the raising a0 years ago was not the end of the story. it was maybe the middle. fir end of the story. it was maybe the middle. ,.,,, , , , ., middle. or even possibly the start. we keep uncovering _ middle. or even possibly the start. we keep uncovering new _ middle. or even possibly the start. we keep uncovering new secrets, i we keep uncovering new secrets, whether— we keep uncovering new secrets, whether that is the diversity of the crew with — whether that is the diversity of the crew with dna and isotope analysis, orjust _ crew with dna and isotope analysis, orjust new— crew with dna and isotope analysis, orjust new technology. for example we are _ orjust new technology. for example we are now — orjust new technology. for example we are now able to bring the ship to life with _ we are now able to bring the ship to life with virtual reality, we have -ot life with virtual reality, we have got for — life with virtual reality, we have got for the attraction opening next year telling the story. for the next 40 years— year telling the story. for the next 40 years we hope to uncover even more — 40 years we hope to uncover even more secret — 40 years we hope to uncover even more secret and maybe even go back on the _ more secret and maybe even go back on the solent and get some of the rest which — on the solent and get some of the rest which is still down there is not what — rest which is still down there is not what you think there is more down _ not what you think there is more down there? we think there is some stuff _ down there? we think there is some stuff we _ down there? we think there is some stuff. we have got to preserve this collection — stuff. we have got to preserve this collection and look after our 19,000 artefacts— collection and look after our 19,000 artefacts but it would be good to -et artefacts but it would be good to get the — artefacts but it would be good to get the rest if we could. more work to be done- —

the good people of ilford south and ilford north who came out in their droves to help. and this is a people powered, people powered canvassing session, campaign, i'm really pleased that we've managed to pull this off. a elderly woman from east london was sent a water bill which said she'd consumed the equivalent of a million cups of tea in six months. 98—year—old estelle mendoza's monthly charge increased from £33 to £215. thames water has now apologised for any distress caused. it was only spotted when estelle's son checked her bill. unless you had giant street parties that she was paying for, there was no way it could be true. really, really bad service. if i ran a business like this, i'd be out of business. the number of primary school places in islington could be cut because of falling numbers of pupils applying. the council are looking to consult primary schools after a reduction of 300 children last year.

it's believed schools across the capital are seeing a dip in numbers due to fewer children being born, less migration since brexit and more families moving out of london. travel now. this is how tfl services are looking. there's no service on the 0verground between romford and upminster. there are severe delays on the elizabeth line between liverpool street and shenfield. now the weather with sara. good morning to you. as promised, a really chilly start this morning across london and the south east. in our suburbs, the temperatures are in low single figures at the moment. the clear skies overnight in the light winds giving us that. but after that chilly start, a lovely day in prospect once more, dry with lots of that lovely autumn sunshine. having had the chilly start, the temperatures will recover back up into the mid—teens. 61 in fahrenheit. 0vernight tonight, we are dry and clear at first, again those temperatures will fall away.

by the end of the night we do have a bit more in the way of cloud filtering in from the west. it will be a chilly start tomorrow morning, perhaps not quite as cold as this morning. really the story for the next couple of days is, we have got a couple of weather fronts trying to push through, particularly through thursday morning. an area of wet and windy weather sweeping across the southern counties. behind it for friday, things will be a little bit drier. but today is the day with the reliable autumn sunshine. those temperatures again into the mid—teens quite typically, and then tomorrow, a few showers and wet and windy for a time on thursday. if you missed tottenham star harry kane's big debut on cbeebies head over to our website for all the details. that's it for now. i'm back in around half an hour. good morning. welcome to breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. 0ur headlines today. russia is widely condemned after bombarding residential

neighbourhoods in ukrainian cities, including launching missile strikes in the centre of kyiv for the first time. the number of care workers in england falls for the first time with 165,000 jobs vacant across the country. a royal takeover — the prince and princess of wales present a special edition of radio 0ne's newsbeat on mental health. we might run out of time and priya might say this is the worst newsbeat production or two interviewers she's ever seen. do you know what, you can come back. is our pay keeping up with ever—rising costs? as food and energy bills continue to climb, the latest figures are expected to show another drop in the value of our wages. i'll be looking at what it all means. how tonight is set to be a huge night for both scotland and wales in their bid to qualify for the women's world cup. good morning. a chilly start to the day across parts of england and wales with some frost in parts of

the south—east, but a lot of sunshine. for scotland and northern ireland, the easter staying dry and bright but the west figure cloud, breezy and some rain. i will have all the details later in the programme. good morning. it's tuesday, 0ctober11th. our main story. russia has been widely condemned after bombarding cities across ukraine, including launching missile strikes on the centre of kyiv. today liz truss will urge world leaders to remain steadfast in support of the country at a virtual meeting of the g7 which will also be attended by ukraine's president, volodymyr zelensky. officials say at least 1a people are known to have died after russia launched more than 80 missiles at sites across the country yesterday. vincent mcaviney has this report. the clean up in kyiv after president putin's dawn retaliation. the russian leader, embarrassed by the successful weekend attack on his bridge from occupied crimea to russia, pummeled ordinary ukrainian neighbourhoods as people

prepared for a new week. playgrounds, parks and homes were all hit. 1a people died and dozens more were injured. ukraine says around half of the 83 missiles launched by russia were shot down. later today, at a virtual meeting of the g7, to be attended by president zelensky, prime minister liz truss will urge fellow leaders to stay the course with ukraine in its battle against russia's brutality. in his nightly address, the ukrainian leader was defiant. translation: ukraine cannot be intimidated. | it can only be more united. ukraine cannot be stopped. it can only be more convinced that the terrorists need to be neutralised. at the united nations in new york, the general assembly held an emergency meeting to discuss the strikes and putin's illegal annexation of eastern regions after his so—called referendums.

deliberate targeting of civilians is a war crime. by launching missile attacks on civilians sleeping in their homes or rushing to work, children going to schools, russia has proven once again that it is a terrorist state that must be deterred in the strongest possible ways. but later today, sirjeremy fleming, the head of britain's signals intelligence service, gchq, will say in a speech, despite this latest aggression, russian forces are desperate, exhausted and running out of ammunition. singing. for ordinary ukrainians forced again into shelters, that might be a hopeful insight. but many months into this war, they'll be hoping foreign leaders will redouble their efforts to bring this conflict to an end. vincent mcaviney, bbc news. let's get more now from our

correspondent, hugo bachega, we can speak now to ukrainian mp, inna sovsun, whojoins us from kyiv. good morning to you. i know that you have had to take shelter yourself at times in the last 2a hours. shall we just start with how things are this morning because of a correspondence said the sirens have been sounding again? said the sirens have been sounding auain? tt ., ., again? yeah, indeed, we did have an air raid siren — again? yeah, indeed, we did have an air raid siren about _ again? yeah, indeed, we did have an air raid siren about half _ again? yeah, indeed, we did have an air raid siren about half an _ again? yeah, indeed, we did have an air raid siren about half an hour - air raid siren about half an hour ago, and i'm not in the shelter right now, but i am in my pantry, as ridiculous as it sounds, but that is the basic requirement, you have to be in a room which doesn't have windows, so that is the situation right now. there hasn't been any explosions in kyiv today, but they did attack energy infrastructure in central ukraine again this morning. an hour ago. it

central ukraine again this morning. an hour ago-— central ukraine again this morning. an hour ago. it must be exhausting livin: like an hour ago. it must be exhausting living like this? _ an hour ago. it must be exhausting living like this? it _ an hour ago. it must be exhausting living like this? it is. _ living like this? it is. particularly - living like this? it is. particularly given - living like this? it is. l particularly given that living like this? it is. - particularly given that my ten—year—old son is sitting right next to me here and yesterday we had to go to the underground station. yeah, i was concerned about his well—being. he seemed to take it well. that's actually probably the most amazing thing about it. people were not panicking, including my son. people were furious, but not intimidated, and i think that is something putin needs to know. if he meant to scare us, he failed. t’m meant to scare us, he failed. i'm lad he's meant to scare us, he failed. i'm glad he's doing 0k and i'm glad you're doing 0k. talk me through what it was like when you came out of the shelter yesterday and you saw on social media or television the pictures of the damage, the shocking pictures, like a children's park

that was attacked by those missiles? what was it like to see those places you know so well in the city you love? ., ., you know so well in the city you love? t, t, t, t, t love? indeed, one of the attacks esterda love? indeed, one of the attacks yesterday in _ love? indeed, one of the attacks yesterday in the _ love? indeed, one of the attacks yesterday in the kyiv _ love? indeed, one of the attacks yesterday in the kyiv actually - love? indeed, one of the attacks yesterday in the kyiv actually hit| yesterday in the kyiv actually hit the city centre, the university building, it was destroyed, including the department for russian language which was completely devastated by the blast yesterday. of course, it's heartbreaking. it's of course, it's heartbreaking. it's not something you ever want to witness. the city centre is mainly closed for driving. but again, the question is what does it change in terms of our behaviour and the thing is it doesn't change at all anything, because we still have to fight back. we still have to put pressure on them. people realise now panicking doesn't solve the problems. of course we are heartbroken, but we are not

devastated to an extent where we are ready to give up and to agree to whatever putin is asking of us. katie whatever putin is asking of us. kyiv the caital whatever putin is asking of us. kyiv the capital hadn't _ whatever putin is asking of us. kyiv the capital hadn't been attacked in this way for several months. so this must have been even more shocking that suddenly these missiles appear on a monday morning rush hour, so does that make you feel more vulnerable again now in the days and to come? t vulnerable again now in the days and to come? , t, , t, to come? i will tell you this, on saturday morning, _ to come? i will tell you this, on saturday morning, when - to come? i will tell you this, on saturday morning, when the . to come? i will tell you this, on - saturday morning, when the crimean bridge was hit i had to go to the drugstore to buy medicines in the sale person there, we know each other, because he lives in my apartment block, and the first thing they said to me was it such a great day, we were waiting for the crimean bridge to be blown up for so long. but she says, we understand putin will react to this and we have to be very careful for the next couple of weeks. that was her understanding and i think it was shared by the majority of ukrainians. we hit where it hurts the russians because now

they have changed to crimea which they have changed to crimea which they were using to supply weapons and troops, and it's now broken, that route, but for us nothing changes in terms of our support for the army and the supply chain for the army and the supply chain for the army and that's a very big difference which needs to be understood. but also speaks to the resilience of the ukrainian people. we know what needs to be done. what our military men and women are doing right now, we should be prepared and keep ourselves safe. i wouldn't say it came as a surprise to anyone of us. but of course, it's not nice. but we don't feel, you know, scared or willing to negotiate, that's for sure. what i did see yesterday in the underground, people speaking to their relatives on the phone, people saying, yeah, we have to fight back, we have to donate to the army. yesterday, one of the organisation is collected up to $5 million and a

couple of hours for a battle strike drone for the ukrainian army. that's what is happening when ukrainians are sitting in a shelter under attack from russia. t are sitting in a shelter under attack from russia.- are sitting in a shelter under attack from russia. i was struck by the pictures _ attack from russia. i was struck by the pictures are _ attack from russia. i was struck by the pictures are people _ attack from russia. i was struck by the pictures are people singing - attack from russia. i was struck by the pictures are people singing in i the pictures are people singing in the pictures are people singing in the shelters yesterday. did you witness that yourself? explain how that happens and what is the sense of community which results in that kind of expression at a time of what must be realfear? kind of expression at a time of what must be real fear?— must be real fear? well, when we were sitting _ must be real fear? well, when we were sitting in _ must be real fear? well, when we were sitting in the _ must be real fear? well, when we were sitting in the underground i were sitting in the underground station, which is the closest bomb shelter for us, station, which is the closest bomb shelterfor us, with my son, there was a pregnant woman, a very pregnant woman, eight months pregnant, sitting right next to me, and i overheard her talking to her mother—in—law saying things like, yeah, i'm so, 0k come in the underground, people are nice, i've got a nice spot to sit, people are helpful so don't worry about me. there was a small boy sitting next to my son, about seven or six years

old, and he was drawing a picture of the ukrainian flag and a ukrainian tank attacking a russian warship. that is a little boy and he was doing thatjust to relax in the bomb shelter. that was the spirit there. people helping each other, people supporting each other, but what is most amazing and completely different from march is no panic, no fear, just intimidation.— fear, 'ust intimidation. thank you so fear, just intimidation. thank you so much for— fear, just intimidation. thank you so much for giving _ fear, just intimidation. thank you so much for giving us _ fear, just intimidation. thank you so much for giving us that - fear, just intimidation. thank you so much for giving us that insightj so much for giving us that insight of what the last 2a hours have been like. we wish you and your son well in the hours ahead. stay safe. thanks. ~ , t, , , in the hours ahead. stay safe. thanks. , , thanks. we promised you fresh “obs fi . ures this thanks. we promised you fresh “obs figures this morning in i thanks. we promised you fresh “obs figures this morning in bed * thanks. we promised you fresh “obs figures this morning in bed is h thanks. we promised you fresh jobs figures this morning in bed is here i figures this morning in bed is here to explain. what can you tell us? this is a snapshot ofjobs and pay in the uk betweenjune and august. they tell us how many people are in work and how much they are being paid and how much the wages compare with average price rises for goods

and services. what they show us is the squeeze on pay very much remains and it's more acute in the public sector than the private sector. in fact, that gap is widening. now, when you factor in inflation, the rise in average prices for goods and services, in real terms, wages fell by 2.9% compared with one year earlier and the previous three—month period we looked at, they had fallen by 2.8%, so this three month period a fall of 2.9%, means the gap between average wages and average prices is getting wider. it is a man at one of the largest falls in real terms wages we have seen since records began in 2001. it is inflation that is the big thorny problem. it's running at almost 10% so typically something that would have cost you £100 a year ago now will cost you £110. unless your pay goes up by the same amount, things feel more expensive and that's what

we mean when we talk about the cost of living squeeze. it's all about those increasing cost pressures. as these figures tell us, wages are not keeping pace. household budgets are being hit by soaring energy bills, higherfood costs, fuel being hit by soaring energy bills, higher food costs, fuel costs, being hit by soaring energy bills, higherfood costs, fuel costs, and that's why we are seeing strikes for industrial action and work is pushing for better pay deals. 0n the flip side, the worry is higher wages would then be passed on to customers through higher prices in the shops and that would fuel inflation even more. we also got the latest unemployment data. unemployment fell by 0.3% down to 3.5%, the lowest it's been since 197a. you might think that's great, more people in work, but we also got figures that show us a large number of people leaving the employment field. they have stopped looking for work. they are either retiring early or leaving the jobs market basically and

vacancies also fell by a6,000, so that tells us places are perhaps closing vacant posts, not hiring. that is not a good omen for the people may be picking an extra shifts and otherjobs as well doing a doublejob, trying to make ends meet. to reduce the cost of living squeeze, but this data shows us that is a very real situations are so many people and one which is only getting worse. thank you very much indeed for running through those figures. thank you. 0ur political correspondent iain watson is in westminster this morning, where mps are returning early to discuss the chancellor's plans. no surprise the economy are set to dominate. tt no surprise the economy are set to dominate. t t, , , no surprise the economy are set to dominate. t tt , , , t, dominate. it certainly is set to dominate. _ dominate. it certainly is set to dominate, very _ dominate. it certainly is set to dominate, very interesting - dominate. it certainly is set to i dominate, very interesting those figures because the lowest unemployment in 50 years but employers are complaining about labour shortages which may, in turn, put pressure on inflation and interestingly, real wages, put pressure on inflation and interestingly, realwages, real terms wages are down to their lowest

level, the biggest fall in 20 years. the cost of living crisis is still very much with us. what liz truss will say to deal with at this afternoon mps, including labour mps will vote to reverse rishi sunak, the former chancellor's increase in national insurance, so by doing so she will say it's bringing some relief to people in work and to businesses as well who will feel the benefit of that reduction. however, looking at earnings being under pressure, that will also bring pressure, that will also bring pressure on liz truss from her own mps who are worried she might try to increase benefits in line with earnings rather than with a higher measure of prices. in other words, cutting the inflation rate to around 10%. she's got a top team meeting today, hell range of mps in small groups over the next few days, apparently in listening mode but what they want her to hear as they should be no cuts in real terms to benefits during a cost of living crisis. we are told to embark on a

charm offensive after a very difficult conservative party conference last week with her key task being to ensure those mps feel charmed rather than offended. thank ou. charmed rather than offended. thank you- another— charmed rather than offended. thank you. another bitter _ charmed rather than offended. thank you. another bitter politics _ charmed rather than offended. thank you. another bitter politics for - charmed rather than offended. thank you. another bitter politics for you this morning. the former shadow transport minister, sam tarry, has become the first labour mp to be deselected in their own constituency in more than a decade. he was fired from labour's front bench after giving broadcast interviews from a rail worker's picket line injuly. the vote by party members means mr tarry, an ex—trade union official, will not stand as ilford south's labour candidate at the next general election. the uk's highest court will hear arguments today on whether holyrood can set up a scottish independence referendum without the agreement of westminster. scotland's first minister nicola sturgeon, wants to hold the vote in october next year, but downing street has opposed this. the scottish and uk governments will make their cases to the supreme court in london as part of the two—day hearing. but it could take weeks or months

for a judgment to be reached. the funerals of the victims killed in a massacre at a childcare centre in thailand will take place today. it was a terrible event last week, wasn't it? 37 people, most of them children, were murdered when a former police officer forced his way into the building armed with a knife and guns. let's speak to our southeast asia correspondentjonathan head who is in utthai sawan. a terribly sad day in that community. it's been a dreadful time and i think they are hoping that this, the last of four days of funerals, will bring some closure. i've been speaking to the families of the victims. this is now much, much bigger as a funeral than they would normally have in this poor district. it's got a lot of money brought in an official involvement and i think they are feeling at least that they are being taken seriously, their

grief is being shared around the country and you can see the number of people behind me here, one of three temples where 11 victims are going to be cremated in the next few hours. the coffins are right back behind the awnings there and this morning, we have seen the families of those children coming and offering them food, with their favourite toys, blankets, clothes, pictures of the children, against the coffins, which are in quite large ornate refrigerated containers, but they replace the food and talk to them as well. it's only when the cremation takes place that their spirits will then be released and i think they will hope they can start to heal but of course this incident leaves a lot of troubling questions about why it happened and perhaps they can never be answered. it was such a shocking incident that even some of the court of people are talking about like drugs or gun control may not really answer it. it's something that is profoundly disturbing and this whole

country will take time to deal with it. , t, t, t, country will take time to deal with it. jonathan, thank you for that u date. the prince and princess of wales have recorded a special edition of radio 0ne's newsbeat, speaking about the importance of mental health. the royals took on roles as reporters to hear the experiences of four guests for world mental health day yesterday. let's take a look. i'd love to know, and, priya, maybe the listeners also would be interested as well, is knowing, how do you look after your own mental health? that's a big question. i know that when you have a bad day, it doesn't mean it will be a bad week or a bad month. you can't always run away from it. it'sjust sometimes you have to really face them and conquer them. and so, you know, with practice, there's progress. and that's, i guess, in a nutshell, that was a big question... sorry! there's no right or wrong, that's the thing as well. different things will work for different people and it's just sometimes trying, isn't it, as well? that's it, yeah. different methods, different opportunities that arise as well to help best support you.

exactly. i'm conscious we might run out| of time and priya might say this is the worst newsbeat production i by two interviewers she's ever seen! do you know what, you can come back! this seat, i've kept it warm, i think you've done a very good job. well, as we said at the start of the special newsbeat, . this is all about having - a meaningful conversation on mental health. but it shouldn't stop here. yeah, absolutely. because talking about mental health is so important. and it's definitely the first step for us, all of us, to keep talking, having those conversations and reaching out for help. that the prince and princess of wales on a new speech. he wondered he was taken over from scott mills, didn't you? now we know. good for them. it was an interesting debate and it's on tomorrow. we've been following the story of the three dads — mike, andy and tim — who have become friends through their campaign for suicide prevention to be included in the national curriculum after their daughters took their own lives.

their petition now has more than 112,000 signatures which means it will now be considered for debate by mps in the house of commons. yesterday they finished their latest challenge walking 600 miles between all four parliaments in the uk. it's just unbelievable. absolutely unbelievable. i think where we started from for ourselves personally, that position of devastation, you know, years ago, not knowing how you're going to rebuild your lives, to end up in a position where you know you can actually make a difference. we haven't yet, but things are moving in the right direction, aren't they? what a day they had. we saw them finishing their walk on breakfast yesterday and then they surpassed that 100,000 signatures which should get them a debate in parliament and last night, which is where they were just then, at that glitzy just giving awards in london for fundraisers, they won a fundraising team of the year for the whole of

the uk so well done. fantastic. congratulations to kevin sinfield who won celebrity fundraiser of the year, the same awards last night, for the work he's been doing promoting motor neurone disease and a survey so much money already so far. he won't stop there. fantastic. well done the three dads and kevin. well done the three dads and kevin. we are so proud of all of you. here's carol with a look at the weather. it looks a little bit frosty. good morninu. it looks a little bit frosty. good morning. sally _ it looks a little bit frosty. good morning. sally is _ it looks a little bit frosty. good morning. sally is right, - it looks a little bit frosty. good morning. sally is right, we've i it looks a little bit frosty. (13222 morning. sally is right, we've got some frost in some rural parts of england in particular with temperatures falling down to around freezing. parts of wales are also pretty chilly this morning. it's under clear skies, a little bit of mist locally lifting readily and then there will be dry weather and a fair bit of sunshine. that extends into eastern scotland and the east of northern ireland as well. but you can see the rain gathering out towards the west and we can see the odd spot across the pennines, north—west wales. breezy as we go through the day with temperatures

11-16. so through the day with temperatures 11—16. so for this evenings rush hour, still a lot of dry weather across england and also wales. some early evening sunshine and you can see we are looking at the cloud building up towards the west. still the odd spot of rain here and there especially across parts of northern ireland, northern and western scotland, but we could see the odd spot getting over towards eastern scotland being blown on that breeze. through this evening and overnight come under clear skies in rural parts of the south—east, temperature slipping away to around 2—3. in towns and cities, a bit higher, and we still have the cloud and rain in the west which is now slowly going to be moving south eastwards. windy for a time in the outer hebrides. that will ease tomorrow and after a bright start in the south—east, you can see this weather front sinking south, a weakening weather feature and a narrow band of rain in the cloud will build and the odd shower but on the other side of that, a lot of dry weather, the sun will come out and the wind will ease with

highs 11—17. out and the wind will ease with highs 1147-— out and the wind will ease with hiuhs11-17. t, ~ t, t, t highs 11-17. thank you, carol. we will see you _ highs 11-17. thank you, carol. we will see you a _ highs 11-17. thank you, carol. we will see you a bit _ highs 11-17. thank you, carol. we will see you a bit later. _ the public inquiry into the wrongful convictions of hundreds of post office branch managers begins today. in what's been described as the biggest miscarriage ofjustice in british history, the post office prosecuted more than 700 sub—postmasters, based on information from a computer system called horizon, which falsely suggested there were cash shortfalls. a high courtjudgment eventually found the it system, developed by the japanese technology firm fujitsu, was riddled with "bugs, errors and defects". but so far nobody has been held accountable. now a former fujitsu uk board director has spoken exclusively to the bbc about what happened, as our correspondent colletta smith reports. i don't get it. i really don't get it. most of us were aware then obviously that horizon was having its issues, but then they still chose to prosecute me.

i can still hear it from this day, that cell door slamming behind me. very, very hard when you know you've not done anything. over the last six months, this inquiry has heard from subpostmasters treated as criminals by the post office. now it wants to find out who knew about the software problems and what they did about it. andy mcnaughton has agreed to meet at this hotel and talk about his work 20 years ago, sorting out a handful of fujitsu's big government contracts. some people must have known about it. including the one for the post office rolling out new computers and software into every single branch. you can't force somebody to take something that they don't want to or don't believe works. the post office should have gone back to fujitsu and said, "these systems are wrong. "we're either going to take them out or you fix them." but there were questions being asked about that software, even as the roll—out was beginning. the investment was huge. like software trainerjez,

who spoke to me earlier this year. occasionally it would work, but a lot of time it wouldn't work. and we used to say, you know, there's obviously a fault there. and they said on the live system, it's never going to be a fault. it'll be fixed before it goes live. i didn't hear anything of that in the board. no one reported that to us. fujitsu told us it's committed to providing the fullest and most transparent information to this inquiry. the government say fujitsu are no longer a preferred supplier, but they can still win contracts. we've got subpostmasters still waiting for compensation, really struggling. lots of them still bankrupt as a result of this. do you think fujitsu should contribute something as a gesture? the issue is as soon as you start doing that, there's there's an admission of guilt and liability. which, you know, why would any company want to do that? the post office say they're

transparently assisting the inquiry and its important work to determine what went wrong. more than a dozen fujitsu staff will be questioned, along with the post office and government officials in the coming weeks. no—one within fujitsu has ever apologised to subpostmasters. do you think they should? and sort of apologise for what? i think they probably feel bad about it. but i'm still trying to work out what you would apologise for. colletta smith, bbc news. the bbc will continue to keep across that story. after more than a00 years at the bottom of the sea, a time capsule of tudor life was raised from the sea bed of the solent. we were remembering watching it as kids. it was quite a moment when the mary rose, a0 years ago, was brought

up mary rose, a0 years ago, was brought up from the depths, the secrets revealed. now, a0 years on, the mary rose remains on display at portsmouth dockyard. i'v e i've been there it's an amazing thing to witness. john maguire has got closer than as tourists ever get, right up close in it for himself. amazing to be there. we arejust a we are just a little bit closer than you can see the mary rose when you come here to visit. the gallery is just above us there, it's a fascinating idea, they show you a mirror image so wherever you walk along the length of the ship, 35 metre length of the ship, you are in an equivalent mirror image if you like to get an idea of exactly what it would have been like to have been on board butjust look here. it's extraordinary. i know it's half a ship but incredible to think it was all brought up as one howl half on this cradle and you will remember the distinctive yellow cradle from the distinctive yellow cradle from the pictures of the day a0 years ago

today. some of the yellow paint of course hasn't weathered so well but you get an idea when you look down the side, look down the whole of the ship, 600 oak trees were felled. she was built injust under ship, 600 oak trees were felled. she was built in just under two years to become henry viii's flagship of course. sunk in 15a5 in a battle with the frenchman recovered a0 years ago, but as i will tell you later on on breakfast this morning, still revealing her secret and telling us so much more about what life was like back then. join us later after the news, travel and weather where you are watching breakfast this morning. good morning from bbc london, i'm alison earle. the labour mp for ilford south, sam tarry has been de—selected in a vote by local members. it comes after he was sacked from his role as shadow transport minister for giving interviews on a rail strike picket line injuly. it's the first time one of the party's mps has been removed in this way in more than a decade.

jas athwal, the leader of redbridge council will now run for labour at the next election. i'm really so happy, but i must say, the team around me, the people who gathered around me, who carried me on the journey, i owe it all to the people, the good people of ilford south and ilford north who came out in their droves to help. and this is a people powered, people powered canvassing session, campaign, i'm really pleased that we've managed to pull this off. an elderly woman from east london was sent a water bill which said she'd consumed the equivalent of a million cups of tea in six months. 98—year—old estelle mendoza's monthly charge increased from £33 to £215. thames water has now apologised for any distress caused. it was only spotted when estelle's son checked her bill. unless you had giant street parties that she was paying for, there was no way it could be true. really, really bad service. if i ran a business like this,

i'd be out of business. travel now and this is how tfl services are looking. there are severe delays on the elizabeth line between liverpool street and shenfield. and there are minor delays on thejubilee line. now the weather with sara. good morning to you. as promised, a really chilly start this morning across london and the south east. in our suburbs, the temperatures are in low single figures at the moment. the clear skies overnight in the light winds giving us that. but after that chilly start, a lovely day in prospect once more, dry with lots of that lovely autumn sunshine. having had the chilly start, the temperatures will recover back up into the mid—teens. 61 in fahrenheit. 0vernight tonight, we are dry and clear at first, again those temperatures will fall away. by the end of the night we do have a bit more in the way of cloud filtering in from the west. it will be a chilly start tomorrow morning, perhaps not quite as cold as this morning. really the story for the next couple of days is, we have got a couple

of weather fronts trying to push through, particularly through thursday morning. an area of wet and windy weather sweeping across the southern counties. behind it for friday, things will be a little bit drier. but today is the day with the reliable autumn sunshine. those temperatures again into the mid—teens quite typically, and then tomorrow, a few showers and wet and windy for a time on thursday. if you missed tottenham star harry kane's big debut on cbeebies, head over to our website for all the details. that's it for now. i'm back in around an hour. hello, this is breakfast

earlier in the year, £37 billion, and already we have seen that being distributed to families now. on top of that the government has very recently set up the comprehensive energy price guarantee, giving assurance for this winter and next winter, as well as to businesses. i think we are doing a considerable amount to support people with the cost of living including those on the lowest, with at least £1200 from the lowest, with at least £1200 from the original support package and being helped further. let’s the original support package and being helped further.— the original support package and being helped further. let's stay on waited. being helped further. let's stay on waited- when _ being helped further. let's stay on waited. when people _ being helped further. let's stay on waited. when people say - being helped further. let's stay on waited. when people say on - being helped further. let's stay on waited. when people say on real. waited. when people say on real terms that wages have for them by nearly 3%, it is going to give —— have fallen by nearly 3%, it is going to give added spice to this call for industrial action, how do you stop strikes in the nhs? members have to decide — you stop strikes in the nhs? members have to decide whether _ you stop strikes in the nhs? members have to decide whether or _ you stop strikes in the nhs? members have to decide whether or not - you stop strikes in the nhs? members have to decide whether or not they - have to decide whether or not they

choose to strike. my predecessor accepted the independent pay review body's proposals, we are honouring that. that was higher than many parts of the public sector. it is the extra support which is going directly into the bank accounts of many households, 8 million households on the lowest income in the country have already been substantial —— receiving substantial amounts of money. added to that there will be more help for pensioners as well as people with disabilities as well as the reduction on the bills that people are starting to see in their monthly energy bill right now. the government is certainly supporting people during this cost of living challenge. i'm conscious also, we need to get the economy growing, and further today, need to get the economy growing, and furthertoday, in need to get the economy growing, and further today, in the commons, we will be removing one of the tax rises that have been put on working people. we have decided to reverse that and pay for the support to the health care system through general taxation. but health care system through general taxation. �* , t, t, t, tt

conscious that we want to do more to support people during this challenging time. that's why i'm focused on making sure our abcd, today i am particularly focused on backlogs, we are announcing ten more diagnostic centres to be i —— open from the isle of wight to burnley to birmingham. it's important to get those diagnoses happening so people know if they need any treatment at all as well as what kind of treatment they need. if there is a focus on tackling the backlog playback, and indeed looking further to this winter, we will be i'm —— unlocking funds to discharge people from hospital as well. butt unlocking funds to discharge people from hospital as well. but i suppose for a lot of people _ from hospital as well. but i suppose for a lot of people it _ from hospital as well. but i suppose for a lot of people it does _ from hospital as well. but i suppose for a lot of people it does not - from hospital as well. but i suppose for a lot of people it does not feel i for a lot of people it does not feel like that. if they are trying to see a doctor or they cannot get a dentist or in their daily lives, they cannot get a passport back or book a driving test, they are looking at the whole of the economy, the whole of the public service at the whole of the public service at the moment and thinking, it's not

working properly. and at the same time, we get this morning that the chancellor, according to the iss, misleading research body in economics, —— according to the ifs, a leading research body, you have to do cuts of 60 million do cuts of 60 —— a leading research body, you have to do cuts of 60 —— 60 billion a year. whether that's like come from? the ifs will do their own analysis. the chancellor will be working with the treasury and other departments and with the but of responsibility, this is already under way. —— and with the office for budget responsibility. that is why our focus on the plan for growth really matters. it is the support we have given to households and businesses this winter and for households, assurances about the following winter, recognising that things like energy prices are not under the control of a family. a lot of this is driven not only by a global

market but also particularly fuelled by the pew to's invasion of ukraine and the instability that has brought to energy security across europe. we will continue to work on our plans to grow the economy, as well as setting out that at the end of the month. i am very focused on what we are doing to help patients which is why opening up the diagnosis centre is important. we have done an extra 2 million cheques with the diagnostic already open, so that is why we are continuing to open more so we tackle the backlog. tbshd t so we tackle the backlog. and i think a lot _ so we tackle the backlog. and i think a lot of _ so we tackle the backlog. and i think a lot of people _ so we tackle the backlog. and i think a lot of people will- so we tackle the backlog. and i i think a lot of people will welcome that i'm glad to hear that they will get those checks hopefully sooner but they are also really worried about the health of the economy, and the wider picture. reports in this morning that the bank of england is stepping in again to date with more emergency support, warning of a material risk to uk financial stability. i mean, people are so

concerned. 0ther pension said, can you reassure them? —— can you reassure people that their pensions will be safe? t reassure people that their pensions will be safe?— will be safe? i can say that their ensions will be safe? i can say that their pensions as _ will be safe? i can say that their pensions as they _ will be safe? i can say that their pensions as they come - will be safe? i can say that their pensions as they come at - will be safe? i can say that their pensions as they come at the i will be safe? i can say that their i pensions as they come at the bank will be safe? i can say that their - pensions as they come at the bank of england is independent and undertaking its role in trying to bring some stability which it has done. i'm not aware of the details of what is happening this morning, the short briefing statement i have had from the treasury is that it is a technical financial stability. we have seen a complex pensions market shift on its liabilities in the last decade and how it addresses that. it's important that we leave the bank of england working in partnership with the treasury and the chancellor in how to develop whatever proposals are needed. tbs, tot whatever proposals are needed. a lot of what they — whatever proposals are needed. a lot of what they are _ whatever proposals are needed. a lot of what they are doing at the moment, the statements they have to make and the action they are having to take it in direct response to your mini budget. t’m to take it in direct response to your mini budget.— to take it in direct response to your mini budget. i'm very confident that the medium-term _ your mini budget. i'm very confident that the medium-term fiscal - your mini budget. i'm very confident that the medium-term fiscal plan i your mini budget. i'm very confident that the medium-term fiscal plan is | that the medium—term fiscal plan is happening, the detailed work is being done. and the chancellor is

economic prospects for every household and its family, we will continue to focus getting people into jobs. continue to focus getting people intojobs. we have seen continue to focus getting people into jobs. we have seen a continue to focus getting people intojobs. we have seen a record number of people on the payroll announced today. we will continue to work to make sure that we have that prosperity for people, whether it is in their homes or in their businesses.— in their homes or in their businesses. ~ tt t, , businesses. what about those people who are on benefits? _ businesses. what about those people who are on benefits? many _ businesses. what about those people who are on benefits? many of - businesses. what about those people who are on benefits? many of whoml who are on benefits? many of whom are also working, but they are anxiously waiting to find out how their benefits will increase over their benefits will increase over the next few months. it sounds like the next few months. it sounds like the government is now going to maybe forget this idea of linking benefits to salaries, to wages, and will link it to inflation instead. is that like me now, can you reassure people? like me now, can you reassure --eole? t, t t t, t like me now, can you reassure --eole? t, t , t, , t, , like me now, can you reassure n-eole? t, t t t, t t, t t, people? no decisions had been made, jon. i used people? no decisions had been made, jon- i used to — people? no decisions had been made, jon- i used to do _ people? no decisions had been made, jon. i used to do this _ people? no decisions had been made, jon. i used to do this role _ people? no decisions had been made, jon. i used to do this role and - people? no decisions had been made, jon. i used to do this role and the - jon. i used to do this role and the secretary of state has to wait until all of the evidence is placed in front of her and that happens in

november and that is when the announcement is made. within the last year we have reduced the taper rate so ineffectively a tax cut for people who are working in in work benefits, and universal credit covers people who are not working as well as people who are, which is why well as people who are, which is why we will continue to try and get people working whether higher up the pay scale or indeed where appropriate more hours in order to make sure they have more money in their pocket. that is ongoing work, and yet even yesterday, i think are working together with the department of health but also the department for work and pensions in particular, focusing on people, on mental health and well—being, to encourage them get them back into the labour market and getting a job which would be good not only how much —— how much money they get every month but how they feel as well.— they feel as well. thank you very

much. time now for a look at the sport. two huge games of both nations tonight, —— for both nations, wales and scotland, after the height of the euro last summer, we are already thinking about the world cup. —— highs of the euros. play—offs tonight, they are both in action and two automatic places available. itbihat two automatic places available. what a treat two automatic places available. what a great story — two automatic places available. what a great story that _ two automatic places available. ernst a great story that would be. what a huge night it is for both wales and scotland as both go in search of a place at the women's world cup in australia and new zealand next year. for wales, they've faced two matches already which manager gemma grainger called the biggest in their history. the first to reach the play—offs and the second was last week as they won in extra time to face switzerland in zurich this evening. it's a complicated qualification process but a two—goal win in normal time should be enough for them to reach their first ever world cup. if we do win this game and we do qualify for the next stage,

that's an incredible moment for us. you know, we've made history already, but i think it's almost really important to know that if we don't and we're not successful, this campaign isn't a failure, you know. for us, both on and off the pitch, we're really clear about why we do what we do, and off the pitch, how we've inspired the crowd, the attendances, and everything that's grown the game we've got to be really proud of that. but from an on—the—pitch perspective, we are right on track for a team who is going to qualify for a major tournament, so if it's not this time, it will be next time. and it's a similar story for scotland as they look to reach their second world cup. they are also potentially 90 minutes away from the world cup. the scots host republic of ireland at hampden with the winners in the frame to go straight to next year's tournament in australia and new zealand. so often a man to produce a big goal in his playing days, now a manager, steven gerrard has challenged his players to start delivering more for aston villa. 1—1 they drew with nottingham forest that still leaves them looking down the table rather than up. forest took the lead in this one.

that didn't last long though, a goal from ashley young pulling them level. both managers under pressure. the draw ends a run of five defeats for cooper's side whilst villa remain 16th. a day after driver max verstappen won a second f1 title, his red bull team have been found guilty of breaking the sport's budget cap. the team were found to have exceeded the £11a million limit last year. the season, of course, one of the most memorable in history, when verstappen pipped lewis hamilton on the final day of the season. it's not yet clear what punishment will be applied, although it's expected he'll likely keep his title. a ten pound supplement bought off amazon was responsible for british sprinter cj ujah's failed drugs test. he led the team off in the men's four by 100 metre relay at the tokyo 0lympics last year, on their way to winning silver. ujah said a next day delivery supplement bought in lockdown caused

the positive test in tokyo, but was able to prove he didn't cheat deliberately which led to the 22—month ban. he'll be able to return in time for the paris 0lympics. and when is the right and wrong time to take a selfie? judging by manchester city manager pep guardiola's face in yesterday's press conference, definitely the wrong time. he was asked for a selfie by the journalists. t’m he was asked for a selfie by the journalists-— he was asked for a selfie by the journalists._ judging i he was asked for a selfie by the i journalists._judging by journalists. i'm sorry? judging by the pose--- _ journalists. i'm sorry? judging by the pose... look— journalists. i'm sorry? judging by the pose... look at _ journalists. i'm sorry? judging by the pose... look at his _ journalists. i'm sorry? judging by the pose... look at his face! - journalists. i'm sorry? judging by the pose... look at his face! i - journalists. i'm sorry? judging by| the pose... look at his face! i am thinkin: , the pose... look at his face! i am thinking. the _ the pose... look at his face! i am thinking, the wrong _ the pose... look at his face! i am thinking, the wrong time. - the pose... look at his face! i am thinking, the wrong time. that i the pose... look at his face! i am thinking, the wrong time. that is| the pose... look at his face! i am i thinking, the wrong time. that is a little bit awkward. _ thinking, the wrong time. that is a little bit awkward. he _ thinking, the wrong time. that is a little bit awkward. he was - thinking, the wrong time. that is a little bit awkward. he was nice - little bit awkward. he was nice enou:h little bit awkward. he was nice enough to _ little bit awkward. he was nice enough to say _ little bit awkward. he was nice enough to say ok, _ little bit awkward. he was nice enough to say ok, but - little bit awkward. he was nice enough to say ok, but clearly, little bit awkward. he was nice i enough to say ok, but clearly, he is thinking, what are you doing? you are here to do a job!— are here to do a “ob! there is a time in a h are here to do a “ob! there is a time in a place, i are here to do a job! there is a time in a place, that _ are here to do a job! there is a time in a place, that isn't i are here to do a job! there is a time in a place, that isn't it. i are here to do a job! there is a i time in a place, that isn't it. that

some rain. 0ne and west where we are looking at some rain. one or two showers dotted around here and west, the main band of rain is in the north. this is where we have got the cloud. temperatures have held up overnight and a clear skies especially in rural areas in the south where they had slipped around to freezing. a lot of dry weather around today, a fair bit of sunshine, the rain gathering across western scotland and northern ireland through the afternoon. here the wind is going to pick up. 11 to 16 being the temperature range, north to south. this evening and overnight, under clear skies, the temperature will fall away. in some rural parts of southern and eastern england it could fall to two or three degrees, and we will see mrs mock patches. the cloud and the rain will move —— mist and fog patches. the cloud in the rain will move west and it will be because the inner west and it will be because the in the western hours. temperatures nine to 11 but in rural areas it will fall away

more than that and some of us will start with a touch of frost. more likely in southern areas, cloud building through the day, a weather front bringing this rain continues to sink south. it is a narrow band of wayne and it is starting to fragment. ahead of it we will see some showers. behind it it will brighten up and the wind will ease and temperatures are between 12 and 18. wednesday evening and into thursday, the weather front continues to push into the south—east before clearing, and on thursday we have got quite a complex area of various fronts. it depends how they interact with each other as to where and when we will see the rain. this is what we think, the first clutch coming in across northern ireland, pushing rain across scotland and then a second clutch bringing rain across southern areas. at the moment it looks like the rain will be south of the ma corridor and into the channel

islands. but that could easily change, it could drift north. at the moment in between these two bands of rain, variable amounts of cloud and some sunshine. temperatures, 11 in the north to 17 in the south. for friday into the weekend, this area of low pressure moves across the north, followed in hot pursuit buy another one. you can see from the isobars in the north of the country it will be windy to the course of the weekend. from friday to sunday it does remain unsettled. thank you, talk to you soon. it has all gone dark in here. i like it, it is a soothing _ it has all gone dark in here. i like it, it is a soothing start _ it has all gone dark in here. i like it, it is a soothing start to - it has all gone dark in here. i like it, it is a soothing start to the i it, it is a soothing start to the day. sky at night presenter dr maggie aderin—pocock has worked on some of the world's biggest space projects during her career. now she's taken on a new mission, writing a book for children, which she hopes will inspire a future generation of scientists and astronauts. maggiejoins us now. i know it looks a bit like we are in

good morning. welcome to breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. our headlines today. official figures published in the last hour show that wages have fallen by almost 3% in relation to the increasing cost of living. and those everyday living costs continue to soar. new figures show the price we pay for food rose at record rates last month. russia is widely condemned after bombarding residential neighbourhoods in ukrainian cities, including launching missile strikes in the centre of kyiv for the first time. a royal takeover — the prince and princess of wales present a special edition of radio one's newsbeat on mental health.

we might run out of time and priya might say this is the worst newsbeat production or two interviewers she's ever seen. do you know what, you can come back. how tonight is set to be a huge night for both scotland and wales in their bid to qualify for the women's world cup. good for the women's world cup. morning. for england this good morning. for england and wales this morning it's a chilly start to the day under clear skies. many of us staying dry with sunshine. scotland northern ireland in the east, it will be brighter, in the west, more cloud and some rain. i will have all the details later on in the programme. in the last hour, we've heard that average wages are falling even further behind average price rises, tightening the cost of living squeeze for millions of households. it's one of the sharpest falls in pay in real terms since records began 20 years ago. ben's here to tell us what it means for us. run us through those numbers. in essence, the squeeze on living standards is getting worse. average

wages fell by 2.9% compared to a year earlier, once you factor in the average rise in prices. inflation, it's among the largest fall since records began in 2001. it is more than they felt in the previous three—month period, so the gap is getting wider between average pay and average prices as the health secretary acknowledged on this programme a time ago. irate secretary acknowledged on this programme a time ago. we have even more people — programme a time ago. we have even more people on _ programme a time ago. we have even more people on payroll _ programme a time ago. we have even more people on payroll in _ programme a time ago. we have even more people on payroll in work - programme a time ago. we have even more people on payroll in work which | more people on payroll in work which is good news. pay an average pay has gone up byjust over 5%. of course i understand that lower than the current inflation rate but we are supporting families already with our cost of living package we put together early in the year, £37 billion. and already we have seen that being distributed to families now. on top of that, the government has recently set up the

comprehensive energy price guarantee giving assurance for this winter and next winter, as well as businesses too, so i think we are doing a considerable amount to support people with the cost of living. haste people with the cost of living. we also learn from these figures from an office of national statistics its wares in the public sector than the private sector. the gap between pay depending where you work is widening. household budgets are being hit by soaring energy bills, higherfood and fuel being hit by soaring energy bills, higher food and fuel costs, that's why we are seeing strikes on industrial action as workers push for better pay deals. the worry is higher wages will lead to higher prices and that will fuel inflation even more. unemployment we learned is down to 3.5%, the lowest it's been since 1974, but that's partly because some people have left the jobs market, given up looking for work, and vacancies remain at historically high levels, so firms are struggling to recruit, fewer people in the jobs are struggling to recruit, fewer people in thejobs market, normally that's what pushes them to offer higher wages. we have to wait and see if they do eventually. and there

some other figures just out which tell us how sharp the prices are going up? yes specifically how much more food is costing. the cost of the weekly shop is jumped recently, grocery prices going up at a record rate of nearly 14% in september which means they are going up faster than average prices for goods and services. general inflation runs at 10%. this 14% figure means the average yearly shopping bill has gone up by £643. people are turning to own brand goods to keep costs down. sales of imperfect fruit and veg have increased by 38% over the last month and this evidence people are shopping around as well to get better deals. liddell was the fastest growing supermarket for the fifth month in a rowjust ahead of al d. there is a warning from the bank of england we've seen on the wires in the last half an hour trying to calm down the markets, but the fact they are having to calm the markets and intervene tells a story?

it really does, for the second day in a row, the bank is saying it will continue buying uk government debt and doing that until the end of the week, but why? eversince and doing that until the end of the week, but why? ever since the mini budget financial markets and investors became more worried about the health of the uk economy and in response they sold off government debt they hold. that makes it more expensive for the government to pay for the tax cuts as well as pay for public services. if the bank didn't step in it is worried the value of investments that pension funds, our pension funds hold, could fall and that in itself could spark another crisis hence this emergency intervention. therese coffey was saying pensions are fine but the fact the statements are coming out every morning, let's see how the markets open in the next half an hour. thank you very much indeed. six minutes past eight. air raid sirens have sounded across ukraine this morning, a day after russia launched

the worst attacks there for months. officials say the southern city of zaporizhzhia was shelled again overnight. let's get more now from our correspondent, hugo bachega, who joins us from ukraine's capital, kyiv. he is ina he is in a car park keeping it as more sirens go off in the capital again this morning, hugo? yeah, we are still here. _ again this morning, hugo? yeah, we are still here. good _ again this morning, hugo? yeah, we are still here. good morning - again this morning, hugo? yeah, we are still here. good morning to - again this morning, hugo? yeah, we are still here. good morning to you. | are still here. good morning to you. the air raid sirens went off across the country about two hours ago. eight o'clock local time. we are still here in the car park, the shelter here in our hotel in kyiv and obviously this happens 24—hour softer those attacks that hit cities across the country including here, the capital kyiv. a missile struck very close to a location here yesterday morning. the fear is more attacks could come today. we had an update from the emergency services in the last hour saying 19 people were killed yesterday by those

missile strikes. 105 people were injured across the country. so an update on the numbers they are from the emergency services. we mentioned zaporizhzhia, a city in the south of the country, very close to the front line, it's become a frequent target by russian forces in recent weeks. we also had an update from the emergency services in zaporizhzhia same 12 missiles hit public facilities, apparently a school was hit, and one death has been confirmed in the city, so it seems that attacks continue at least in the city of zaporizhzhia and across the city of zaporizhzhia and across the country i think people are now in shelters, bunkers, as they fear more attacks could come today. {lilia more attacks could come today. 0k, huao, more attacks could come today. 0k, hugo. stay — more attacks could come today. 0k, hugo. stay safe- _ more attacks could come today. ok, hugo, stay safe. thank you. let's get more now from bbc monitoring's russia editor, vitaly shevchenko, who grew up in ukraine. good morning to you. how significant is this latest move from president

putin? are we going to expect and be braced for more strikes like we have seen over the last 24 hours? i’m seen over the last 24 hours? i'm afraid that's _ seen over the last 24 hours? in afraid that's the expectation from people on the ground. i've been speaking to my friends in ukraine, including in zaporizhzhia, and it seems relentless. we are talking about a city almost the size of liverpool, with lots of industry, universities, colleges, museums, theatres, parks, and it has been coming under russian attacks night after night. this has been the fourth night zaporizhzhia was attacked and there is a feeling of helplessness. and being exposed to these russian missiles and there doesn't seem to be much logic to where they fall. this morning, hugo mentioned a school that was hit,

also a car dealership and apparently also a car dealership and apparently a park, so when people go to bed in cities like zaporizhzhia, it's a bit of a lottery. what is new, it's the fact that ukraine's infrastructure has been really badly affected by the russian missile strikes yesterday morning. and the authorities in ukraine have introduced electricity rationing. there are sweeping blackouts in ukraine. authorities say that about 300 towns and villages still have no electricity and locals are being told to stock up on water and, as winter approaches, as temperatures plummet, it is looking really grim and dark and cold for residents of ukraine. 1 and dark and cold for residents of ukraine. . , and dark and cold for residents of ukraine. ., , ., .,

apparently trying to undermine the determination to fight. has it worked? well, not really. talking to my friends in ukraine, there is a sense of resignation but also they are saying, look, we are refusing to give up and yesterday we have seen videos from various bomb shelters across ukraine where people sang the national anthem, a sign of defiance. people on the metro system here sang folk songs, so this suggests to me that if you look at ordinary ukrainians, there is very much this sense of determination to resist and a desire to express their national identity in the face of these lethal, lethal and indiscriminate

to be doing, but also commentators in russia are all independent, ordinary russians, they are really worried about this escalation, because they are facing a very realistic prospect of being mobilised and sent to fight in ukraine. as we have been hearing for the past few weeks, russians have been trying to leave, to escape the draft and forming huge queues at the border so there's a sense of rising concern in russia, as well, because suddenly, this special military operation is turning into a very real warfor operation is turning into a very real war for ordinary russians, some of whom were happy to support the campaign from the comfort of their home, but faced with the very real prospect of being sent to ukraine, they are getting really concerned.

thank you so much for your thoughts this morning. thank you. some political news here. the former shadow transport minister, sam tarry, has become the first labour mp to be deselected in their own constituency in more than a decade. he was fired from labour's front bench after giving broadcast interviews from a rail worker's picket line injuly. the vote by party members means mr tarry, an ex—trade union official, will not stand as ilford south's labour candidate at the next general election. the uk's highest court will hear arguments today on whether holyrood can set up a scottish independence referendum without the agreement of westminster. first minister nicola sturgeon wants to hold the vote in october next year. our reporter, alexandra mackenzie, is at the supreme court for us this morning. this is going to be a really important decision, isn't it? what

can we expect today?— can we expect today? yes, definitely. _ can we expect today? yes, definitely, for _ can we expect today? yes, definitely, for the - can we expect today? yes, definitely, for the 2014 - can we expect today? 1a: definitely, for the 2014 referendum on scottish government was given the temporary power by westminster to hold a legal independence referendum. now, scotland's first minister nicola sturgeon wants to hold a referendum in october next year. that is her preference and she has asked the uk government for that transfer of power. that has been refused. so five judges transfer of power. that has been refused. so fivejudges here transfer of power. that has been refused. so five judges here at the supreme court over two days will be askedif supreme court over two days will be asked if the scottish government has the legal power to go ahead and have an independence referendum without westminster�*s permission? but the union is a reserved matter and the scottish government cannot pass laws that relate to the union, said the scottish government will argue that this will be an advisory referendum which would have no immediate legal

impact, so it wouldn't directly relate to the union. the uk government will argue that there is no such thing as a consultative referendum and will say as a referendum and will say as a referendum bill would be outside the legal competence of the scottish parliament. now with the arguments over two days, we are likely to give a ruling probably within the next few weeks. a ruling probably within the next few weeks-— a ruling probably within the next few weeks. �* . ., ., ~ , ., few weeks. 0k, alexandra, thank you ve much few weeks. 0k, alexandra, thank you very much indeed. _ few weeks. 0k, alexandra, thank you very much indeed. at _ few weeks. 0k, alexandra, thank you very much indeed. at the _ few weeks. 0k, alexandra, thank you very much indeed. at the supreme i very much indeed. at the supreme court in london. we've been following the story of the three dads — mike, andy and tim — who have become friends through their campaign for suicide prevention to be included in the national curriculum after their daughters took their own lives. their petition now has more than 112,000 signatures which means it will now be considered for debate by mps in the house of commons. that's what they wanted to happen and that's what they told us yesterday. yesterday they finished their latest challenge walking 600 miles between all four parliaments

in the uk. it's just unbelievable. absolutely unbelievable. i think where we started from for ourselves personally, that position of devastation, you know, years ago, not knowing how you're going to rebuild your lives, to end up in a position where you know you can actually make a difference. we haven't yet, but things are moving in the right direction, aren't they? if you're watching those pictures thinking whether in a nightclub or something to celebrate the end of their walk, they were at a very glamorousjust giving their walk, they were at a very glamorous just giving charity awards last night, and they won. well done, they won a prize for fundraising team of the year, which was another accolade on a crazy day for them but brilliantly done. it was a crazy day. raining for them coming into london yesterday but you know what you get when there is rain. a rainbow? carol has brought it for us. good morning, carol. i

fall away 2—3, and a touch of frost. to the north and west you can see the amount of cloud and rain, so temperatures will held up and it will be windy for a time across the western isles. tomorrow, after that bright start, as our weather front producing this rain slips southwards, as the weakening feature, the cloud will build and will see one or two showers but will brighten up. some sunshine, the wind easing in tomorrow's top temperature 18 degrees. sally.— 18 degrees. sally. thank you very much indeed. _ 18 degrees. sally. thank you very much indeed. back _ 18 degrees. sally. thank you very much indeed. back to _ 18 degrees. sally. thank you very much indeed. back to the - 18 degrees. sally. thank you very much indeed. back to the inbox l much indeed. back to the inbox looking for some more rainbows for us. thank you. the prince and princess of wales have recorded a special edition of radio one's newsbeat, speaking about the importance of mental health. the royals took on roles as reporters to hear the experiences of four guests for world mental health day yesterday. let's take a look. how are you doing? no, really. how are you doing? it's a simple enough question, but one that can spark a really meaningful conversation.

yesterday was world mental health day, and as part of a special recording, we had two very special newsbeat reporters to help. thanks, priya. it's great to be here on world mental health day. we'rejoined by four young people who are doing amazing things on mental health. i was diagnosed with schizophrenia, and emotional unstable personality disorder when i was a teenager around the ages of 15, 16. a lot of it came from, you know, coming from an african background, mental health isn't a topic of discussion. it's not something i was aware of or had any knowledge of. and so we are only sort of helped when we are at crisis point because it's a thing i call over—resilience. we've been made to be so over resilient that we push away those vulnerabilities and those weaknesses. the last time we were here was to launch the heads together campaign, which was to get people to start opening up and talking about mental health.

since then, obviously we've had the pandemic and everything like that. do you feel that there's been a sort of a shift in what people are speaking about around mental health? yeah, and i think especially we're seeing the younger generation, my generation and younger coming up, definitely less scared to talk about mental health and it's becoming more acceptable. and i think through the pandemic, there was a lot around feeling lonely, and, you know, a lot of us were isolated, in our houses by ourselves. there was a lot of students who were literally in small university accommodations by themselves through that time. and talking about feeling lonely and what that can then lead to, i think because it's become such a universal feeling that a lot of people have grouped together, you know, we all feel lonely right now, especially during that time, or we're all lacking the connections that maybe we need. and so i think when we're all feeling the same thing and we start to admit that,

it makes it easier then for more people to say, "oh, yeah, me too." that's one of the messages we were trying to encourage, this fact that everyone has mental health. absolutely. and in the same way as their physical health, we have to look after it. in the same way we go to the gym, we need to look after and nurture our minds as well. as you were saying, it's really important to reach out and connect with people. some people actually express it through music or through art or through other forms of expression. it's a really great way, isn't it, of experiencing mental health? absolutely. self—care is being unapologetic about what you need, and it could be all these fun things, like giving yourself an hour of gaming or going to the theatre. but it can also be giving yourself permission to say that you're not coping and to ask someone what to do. and abigail, just maybe we could touch on... i liken a lot of the work we've done on mental health and listened to lots of people talk about is everyone likes a tool box, particularly for men.

a tool box is quite a useful analogy to kind of use. how much in your work do you see... because you alluded to the fact that big family networks and support networks around people are really important, but a lot of people don't realise what they need until it actually comes along. you can be living one life one minute and something massively changes and you realise you don't have the tools or the experience to be able to tackle that. i to have, i suppose, in your tool. box, communication would be key. and i think some of the myth—busting as well around attachment. _ we know now through studies that actually any parent who spends . a significant amount of time, l or any caregiver, with the child will also form similar attachments and have those similar— patterns as well. i'd love to know, and, priya, maybe the listeners also would be interested as well, is knowing, how do you look after your own mental health? that's a big question. i know not every day is going to be roses and sunflowers. i know some days i'm going to have to push against the clouds to see that sun again. and, you know, i know that

when you have a bad day, it doesn't mean it will be a bad week or a bad month. so that's the type of awareness i'm talking about, you know, coming to accept these things. because when you can accept these things and you know, on your bad day, what you have to remember is to remain humble and, you know, stay hopeful. you know, you can't always run away from it. it'sjust sometimes you have to really face them and conquer them. and so, you know, with practice, there's progress. and that's, i guess, in a nutshell, that was a big question... sorry! there's no right or wrong, that's the thing as well. different things will work for different people and it's just sometimes trying, isn't it, as well? that's it, yeah. different methods, different opportunities that arise as well to help best support you. exactly. i'm conscious we might run out| of time and priya might say this is the worst newsbeat production i by two interviewers she's ever seen! do you know what, you can come back! this seat, i've kept it warm, i think you've done a very good job. you can come back, carry on! well, as we said at the start of the special newsbeat, .

this is all about having - a meaningful conversation on mental health. but it shouldn't stop here. yeah, absolutely. because talking about mental health is so important. and it's definitely the first step for us, all of us, to keep talking, having those conversations and reaching out for help. good for them. the prince and princess of wales on bbc newsbeat. bbc newsbeat presenter pria rai and mental health activist antonio ferreria, who you saw in that report, join us now. he was speaking up close to the prince and princess. what was that like? it prince and princess. what was that like? ., , , prince and princess. what was that like? , , ., prince and princess. what was that like? i, ., , like? it was very surreal but it was a true testimony _ like? it was very surreal but it was a true testimony to _ like? it was very surreal but it was a true testimony to my _ like? it was very surreal but it was a true testimony to my journey - like? it was very surreal but it was l a true testimony to my journey from a true testimony to myjourney from where i started to where i am now, you know. never ever thought i'd be in to the prince and princess of wales about my mental health journey, so very surreal in that sense. ~ , , ., journey, so very surreal in that sense. ~ , y., ., journey, so very surreal in that sense. ~ , ., ., , sense. why did you want to sit in that studio _ sense. why did you want to sit in that studio and _ sense. why did you want to sit in that studio and open _ sense. why did you want to sit in that studio and open yourself - sense. why did you want to sit in that studio and open yourself up| sense. why did you want to sit in - that studio and open yourself up and talk to them? the that studio and open yourself up and talk to them?— talk to them? the main thing is about challenging _ talk to them? the main thing is about challenging yourself, - talk to them? the main thing is - about challenging yourself, pushing yourself, getting out of your comfort zone, that's the only way we

inspiration around you. for me it was a very lonely experience going through schizophrenia, the emotions, very difficult to speak up on it because of the shame and misconceptions around it, but as i said in the interview the best thing you can do is try. you can't forge yourself or anything else and to everybody else i would say look to that inspiration and motivation and see the opportunities which can arise from speaking up rather than the doors that will suck for you. how has your life changed from the lowest point to where you are today? there is more reason for me to now stay on top of my mental health. before, you are quite hopeless, but now i know what i'm doing, i know my purpose, there's a lot of people looking to me to inspire them. my friends and i have conversations about mental health and in the past we've never mentioned it. now they are happy to share their experiences because they've seen me share my experiences, so it's almost like a

up into the mid—teens. 61 in fahrenheit. overnight tonight, we are dry and clear at first, again those temperatures will fall away. by the end of the night we do have a bit more in the way of cloud filtering in from the west. it will be a chilly start tomorrow morning, perhaps not quite as cold as this morning. really the story for the next couple of days is, we have got a couple of weather fronts trying to push through, particularly through thursday morning. an area of wet and windy weather sweeping across the southern counties. behind it for friday, things will be a little bit drier. but today is the day with the reliable autumn sunshine. those temperatures again into the mid—teens quite typically, and then tomorrow, a few showers and wet and windy for a time on thursday. if you missed tottenham star harry kane's big debut on cbeebies head over to our website for all the details. that's it for now. i'm backjust after nine.

hello, this is breakfast with sally nugent and jon kay. we've heard this morning that average wages are falling even further behind average price rises, tightening the cost of living squeeze for millions of households. it's one of the sharpest falls in pay in real terms since records began 20 years ago. ben's here to tell us what it means for us. what are they telling us in black and white? this is the monthly update from the office for national statistics which confirms what we're all feeling. our wages on average are falling further behind the rise in average prices for the things we all buy. inflation, the rate at which average prices are going up, is at the highest level for nearly 40 years. in september, prices were almost 10% higher than they were a year before. so something that would have cost you £1,12 months ago, would now cost you £1.10. when you take that in to account in real terms, wages are falling. excluding bonuses, if you're lucky enough to get one,

wages have fallen by 2.9%. that means if you're taking home £20,000 a year it might feel like you've got £560 less to spend this year than last. we spoke to people in london, who told us how they're coping. i feel the pinch with the prices in the store and, you know, everywhere, kind of thing. so it's stopped up from filling up our car as frequently as we used to do, so we probably fill it up once a month now and drive a lot less now as compared to what we used to do. i kind of work for myself, so i set a rate, but to put that rate up, you are doing that on people who are already looking at other things being put up in the lives. so for me, as a kind of self—employed person, i don't really want to be putting my prices up for the people when they are already going to have other things to people, higher gas or electricity. i i would say, you do see the extra £5| or £10 that comes onto your shopping

when you're buying groceries, and when you're _ going out in general. i guess it is kind of— understanding how to manage the new economy that is around us. i'd got to the point now where i never had these worries, i'm going to be very honest. but now i definitely do, i go for the cheaper brands. it could be their own brands, i don't go for heinz tomato ketchup any more. the issue of rising prices and falling wages is one of the big reasons for the many strikes we've seen this year. rail workers, bus drivers and royal mail staff are preparing for more walk outs this month. yesterday, criminal barristers voted to accept a 15% pay increase, ending their strike. nearly 400,000 people on the real living wage have also received an inflation—busting increase of more than 10%. the real living wage is different to the government's national living wage and businesses have no

obligation to pay it. we went to one business which has been trying it out. the living wage rate went up from £9.90 to £10.90 last week, it was announced last week, we are introducing that this month. we see a value in that, and it brings out the best in our staff. it increases productivity, makes us more efficient. so we're quite happy to do that. me and the mrs are doing the weekly shop, and over the past month, month and a half, we have noticed how much more we are spending on things like bread, butter, milk. yeah, it'sjust basic items. even hygiene items like deodorant, shower gel, shampoo. the wage rise has helped. it means that we are not going to struggle. just changed our shopping habits, going around, i

trying to find cheaper- supermarkets, cheaper brands. it's not always the best _ but with a pay rise we can go back, have a bit more luxury. pay more, you get more loyal staff, they're eager to come into work, i they're happier to come into work | rather thanjust sitting at home. i we have been fortunate to be able to pass some of the costs onto the customers, but like many other businesses, we've taken the hit ourselves in some respects as well. what we didn't realise at the time was, we were actually saving money. one of the things it did was make us more productive, it cut down the absenteeism days. and if you work on the basis that each absentee day costs you £161, we made a saving in excess of £80,000 by paying staff more. to put all of this in context, some other figures out this morning show us that the average cost of the weekly shop has jumped, us that the average cost of the weekly shop hasjumped, in september, it was up by 14% compared

to the year before. that is £640 extra on the weekly shop and paired with the year ago. —— compared with a year ago. people are shopping around for better deals, the budget supermarkets have benefited. people are buying more imperfect stuff, the wonky fruit and veg and turning to own brand goods to do whatever they can to keep the shopping bill down. because average wages are nowhere near keeping up with that. thank you very much. just near keeping up with that. thank you very much. just after 20 to nine, thank you very much. just after 20 to nine. we — thank you very much. just after 20 to nine, we are _ thank you very much. just after 20 to nine, we are expecting - thank you very much. just after 20 to nine, we are expecting small. to nine, we are expecting small numbers later on today but a decisive day in the sport. abs, numbers later on today but a decisive day in the sport. a lot of talk about _ decisive day in the sport. a lot of talk about the _ decisive day in the sport. a lot of talk about the world _ decisive day in the sport. a lot of talk about the world cup - decisive day in the sport. a lot of talk about the world cup at i decisive day in the sport. a lot of talk about the world cup at the l talk about the world cup at the moment. . , .~' talk about the world cup at the moment._ men'sl moment. that is quick. men's football world _ moment. that is quick. men's football world cup _ moment. that is quick. men's football world cup coming, i moment. that is quick. men'sl football world cup coming, the moment. that is quick. men's - football world cup coming, the rugby league world cup, the t20 world cup and the qualification for the women's football world cup which is taking place next year. it is

1—1 they drew with nottingham forest that still leaves them looking down the table rather than up. forest took the lead in this one. that didn't last though a goal from ashley young pulling them level. both managers under pressure. the draw ends a run of five defeats for cooper's side whilst villa remain 16th. just as news comes of red bull breaking fi's budget cap, the w series, the elite series in women's motor sport is ending its season because of finacial difficulties. the final three races have been scrapped, meaning gb�*s jamie chadwick, who leads the standings, has been crowned champion for the third time. the series, that was founded in 2019, has failed to secure the required investment to see out the rest of the championship. and a £10 supplement bought off amazon was responsible for british sprinter cj ujah's failed drugs test. he led the team that claimed

silver off in the men's four by 100 metre relay at the tokyo olympics last year. he said a next day delivery supplement bought in lockdown before the games caused the positive test. he was able to prove he didn't cheat deliberately which led to a backdated 22—month ban and will now be able to return in time for the paris olympics. he has obviously been very apologetic having been able to prove that he did not cheat deliberately, but one of the interesting points was, he said he wished he was tested sooner. his last test was three months before the game. if he was tested sooner it would have presented sooner and he would not have put his team—mate in the position they have been put in being stripped of their silver medals. but as we know, you have got to be so careful, don't you, with what is going into your body. abs, careful, don't you, with what is going into your body. a complicated s stem, going into your body. a complicated system. thank _ going into your body. a complicated system, thank you _ going into your body. a complicated system, thank you very _ going into your body. a complicated system, thank you very much i going into your body. a complicated i system, thank you very much indeed. just coming up to quarter to nine. carol is going to tell you right now

what the weather is going to be like. good morning, thank you. this morning we are starting with some weather watchers pictures, henley—on—thames was misty this morning, a beautiful view of the hunter moon. some trust in the rural areas, you can see in this picture in warwickshire —— there was some frost in rural areas. high pressure is dominating the weather, clearer skies and temperatures falling away, so the moisture in the air has allowed mist and fog to form. weather fronts across the north and west have been introducing some rain across northern scotland, western scotland and coming in across western part of northern ireland. one or two showers across the pennines and north west wales that they will be the exception rather than the rule. a lot of dry weather and sunshine through the date, as the breeze picks up we could see some showers in eastern scotland but not too many. most of the wet weather will be in the north and

west. these are the sustained wind speeds so it will be gusting a bit more, and the wind picking up a bit more, and the wind picking up a bit more across the west. temperature —wise, 1117, north to south. more or less where we should be at this stage in october. this evening and overnight come under clear skies the temperature will fall quite quickly. in rural areas we could see some fog and mist patches. but whether france are gathering and bringing rain and it will be windy across the outer hebrides. temperatures six to 11 degrees. after the bright start in the south—east, as the weather front continues to push steadily south—eastward, as a fragmenting band, the cloud will build and we will see a few showers. they very far south—east will stay largely dry. on the other side of the

weather front it is going to brighten up and the winds will ease. temperatures, 12 to 18 degrees. eventually, wednesday into thursday morning, we lose the weather front from the south—east but you can see how it almostjoins from the south—east but you can see how it almost joins forces with from the south—east but you can see how it almostjoins forces with the next system coming in from the south—west and another one pushing in across the north west. quite a complex situation and it depends how these weather fronts interact as to who and when we'll see the rain. the fronts in the north will push rain into northern ireland and scotland, the front in the south—east clears away and then the next set comes in from the south—west. at the moment it looks like it will stay south of the m4 corridor, and in between, we are looking at something drier and brighter. but that could change. you know what i'm going to say, it is good for the gardens. and it certainly is! quite right, always a

positive. we have got some more positive. we have got some more positive about the gardens this morning. experts are predicting a bumper harvest of apples this year, despite the summer heatwave that damaged some crops. and although traditional orchards are in decline, there's been a rise in a new generation of community orchards set up on shared green spaces. our environment correspondent helen briggs went to find out more. nothing spells autumn like apples. but gathering to share the harvest is becoming a thing of the past as traditional orchards vanish from the landscape. this orchard at swan barn farm is one of a new generation of community orchards where people club together to plant fruit trees on local green spaces. they're not connected to their computers or their mobiles or their tvs. so there's a being away from the usual hubbub of life, just coming somewhere that's beautiful, like this, outdoors. it's just that thing

of all being together and there's something magical about it. and today, volunteers are turning the apples they've helped grow into freshjuice using an ancient apple press. it's a lovely place. and the trees are beautiful. and doing something like this, you get to meet some nice, you know, it'sjust nice, sociable thing to do. what better thing to dol than be coming out here on a lovely day like today, helping the community, i helping the environment. can't do better than that, really. this has got an absolutely amazing amount of different apples. i don't know any of their names. the boom in community orchards is bringing back hundreds of forgotten varieties of british apple. here at wisley gardens in surrey, apple detectivejim arbury is on a mission to identify them. by sight, touch and taste alone, he quickly recognised two mystery varieties from swan barn farm.

i think this is court pendu plat, which is an old french apple, certainly from the middle ages or possibly even roman. this summer's heat wave and drought has caused problems for crops, but apples have fared relatively well and should be particularly sweet due to the sunshine. well, it's going to be a bumper year, so there's going to be a lot. but also importantly, it's going to be really good quality, i think. they're going to be quite firm and with good flavour and sweet, plenty of sugar in them. so that's going to give them generally good flavour. and that particularly applies to some of the later ripening apples which do need that long season to ripen and get good flavour and good, you know, good sweet apples. community orchards are born out of a desire to reconnect with nature and make the most of local food. and they're becoming all the more important as food prices soar. helen briggs, bbc news, in the surrey hills. and to prove that it is a great

autumn for apples, you have been sending us your photos this morning of your crops at home. matthew says he's seen some of the biggest apples in his mother—in—law�*s orchard in west wratting, cambridgeshire. do you think he has gone round to steal them? they plan to juice them as there are so many. eire in north pembrokeshire has sent in this picture of one of her traditional welsh apples. she says her six—year—old daughter megan has been enjoying their first harvest. she has enjoyed so many of them there is anyone left! it's been a busy one for tony in galway. his crop is so heavy it's even managed to snap one of the branches on his tree, despite gathering every day. amanda's apple tree is still flourishing despite moving it a few years ago.

that is a lovely picture, lovely colours. ., and let's finish with sue's humble bucketful of bramley apples. she says her tree has kept her neighbours happy by producing a perfect crop for making crumbles and pies. we like a crumble, don't we, jon? we were talking about the joy of crumble earlier. ourfamily were talking about the joy of crumble earlier. our family once won the best apples in the village show. ukip can black/white, you tell me that at 29? —— you kept that quiet, you tell me that at 29 in the morning? 40 years ago a team of divers, archaeologists and scientists raised a buried gem of tudor history from the depths of the solent. after more than 400 years sitting on the sea bed, the mary rose remains on display at portsmouth dockyard. john's there for us this morning.

very special access, how are they marking the anniversary, john? it is a hue da marking the anniversary, john? it is a huge day for _ marking the anniversary, john? it 3 a huge day for everyone involved in the mary rose. we will hear some of the mary rose. we will hear some of the family stories a bit later on in a few minutes. you will hear that this shipper really gets into people's blood. look at it, absolutely magnificent, extraordinary to think that a wooden ship this intact after a 437 years at the bottom of the ocean. sealed in mud to stop the oxygen getting to it and to stop the timbers rotting. 600 oak trees were felled to build her, she was the pride of the fleet, king henry the eight�*s flagship, she made her last voyage and sank during a battle with the french. she was then under water for almost four and a half centuries, was brought the surface exactly 40 years ago today.

now, there is the wreck of the mary rose. it has come to the surface. there is the first sight of this flagship of henry viii. it's the first time we have seen this in 437 years. inch by inch, the ship that was the pride of henry viii's mighty navy peeked above the waters of the solent and began to reveal her secrets. alex hildred was part of the original dive team and says, 40 years on, we're still learning about life on board. we can reconstruct their faces, we can reconstruct their lives. with dna technology, we can learn about where they were born and what colour their eyes would be if you process it enough. and our problem is, there's so much we can learn, we've got to save some things for when technology gets better so that you don't have to destroy anything. the then prince charles was present to witness his ancestor�*s flagship return to the surface. i believe she's in marvellous condition. and he was right. the half of the ship and a huge number of artifacts were preserved

by centuries cocooned in mud and silt on the sea bed. can you guess what's in here? no, exciting! look at the shape of the drawer. so these are some of our tudor long bows. this is actually one of... the ship was listed with 250 long bows. so these are some of them. we've got 130 odd that are complete out of the 250 and fragments of a bit more. when the ship was first raised, she was kept wet by spraying her timbers. but in recent years, technology has allowed for dry preservation. drying out, it can shrink by up to 50% without treatment. so it was sprayed with water for the first 12 years until we came up with a treatment, using research to be able to then preserve the ship for the future. 500 souls were lost when the ship sank during a battle with the french in 1545. and the work goes on today to help tell their stories, alongside the history

of the mary rose, providing precious insight into life almost 500 years ago. and the reason that we know about that, the reason the ship is here, the reason there are 19,000 artefacts here is because of hundreds of people but two very special people. and their descendants are with us. margaret ruhl and alistair mckee, you are their children, your dad started talking about this ship at the age of 15? , ., , ., ., of 15? yes, when he was a teenager he lived in — of 15? yes, when he was a teenager he lived in southsea. _ of 15? yes, when he was a teenager he lived in southsea. and _ of 15? yes, when he was a teenager he lived in southsea. and i - of 15? yes, when he was a teenager he lived in southsea. and i can i he lived in southsea. and i can imagine him standing there, where henry viii was when the ship went down. and he must have said to himself, one day, i will find that ship because he saw it marked on a local chart. all through the rest of his life he had that plan and that dream and he always saw it as, i
