they've got a long list of things that were wrong with them. at this stage where they are, we're really happy with where they are. who knows what's round the corner for them? trying to remember where they've come from. if it was a hand of cards, i'd fold now. i'm happy, you know? so, yeah, blessed. it's like winning the lottery for me. and i know it is for you. i couldn't want any more in life. this is it. this is... this is as good as it gets, you know? you can't get any better than this. they've made our life complete. you know, happy endings do happen. miracles happen. this is absolute proof. jade crane — mum of harry and harley — ending that report by fiona lamdin. time for a look at the weather here's tomasz schafernaker.
1:31 pm
hello. good afternoon to you. it is so mild out there. many of us have not had to use the thick coats for quite some time now. this is not going to change over the next few days. exceedingly mild weather conditions, with this air stream coming in all the way from the southern climes, actually a pattern that we sometimes see during the summer months. at low pressure is also close by. so, not necessarily sunny all the time. far from it, also close by. so, not necessarily sunny all the time. farfrom it, we had heavy rain earlier on across many parts of northern ireland and scotland. most of that rain has now cleared to the north and we are left with brisk, quite strong south—westerly wind around western areas. but plenty of sunny spells in land, and, of course, the relatively high temperatures possibly reaching 20 degrees in the south—east and east anglia. but even around yorkshire, around 18, mid—teens in eastern and central parts of scotland. through the course of tonight, there was brisk southerly winds continue. we will see some rain returning to south—western
1:32 pm
areas. again, this is a very mild direction for the air to come from. so it's14 degrees in the south, may be around nine or ten in the north. actually last night in swanage, the temperature did not fall below 16.5. so, really mild, really warm air coming from the south. tomorrow, early there will be some rain in the south which will then move northwards. but if the sunshine does come out for any lengthy period of time, i think particularly around east anglia and the south—east, the temperatures could actually reach 22 celsius. if this does happen, it's not a record, but we are looking at around seven or 8 degrees above the average for the time of the year. actually, towards the end of october, temperatures have been known to approach 2a degrees. so, we are not quite there, but very, very mild. friday, a band of heavy rain will sweep across the country, drier and brighter conditions through the afternoon. again, we are talking
1:33 pm
around the high teens in the south. i think it is the length of this very mild and warm spell that is quite extraordinary, rather than the actual absolute values of these temperatures. if you look at the jet stream through the weekend, and this will probably happen next weekend as well, that is where the air is coming from, mild conditions, in the teens. there is a hint that later in the week, the temperatures will ease. i don't want to say it will turn colder, but it will be closer to what we expect for this time of the year. from the weather icons, very variable. that's all from the bbc news at one, so it's goodbye from me, and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc�*s news teams where you are. good afternoon.
1:34 pm
here's your latest sports news. we start at the men's t20 world cup in melbourne where ireland's fine form continues to england's detriment this time. their title hopes have taken a knock after a dramatic rain—affected defeat at the mcg. after a surprisingly meek performance in pursuit of 158, england, one of the tournament favourites, were 105—5 in the 15th over when rain arrived. with england behind the required rate, ireland secured a five—run win on the duckworth—lewis—stern method when the match was called off soon after. ijust don't think i just don't think we were consistent enough. we let them score both sides of the wicket. there were some variable conditions for bowling as well. everything went in our favour, and electing to field knowing there was weather around, and we did not take advantage of that. australia were pushed all the way but clinched a dramatic one—goal win in the first test against england. england were trailing by one point
1:35 pm
late in the fourth quarter when ellie cardwell scored to level at 54—54. but diamonds debutant donnell wallam scored with five seconds left on the clock to complete a perfect performance and help australia snatch the victory. they play again on sunday morning. more champions league action tonight as spurs host sporting. tottenham are already through to the knockout stages — a point clear at the top of group d and can create a four—point gap between themselves and their opponents with a win. antonio conte says it shows the development at the club, who were struggling in the third tier of european competition — the europa conference league — last season. we are talking about another competition and we have a great opportunity. we need to go to the next
1:36 pm
round and it will be a really good achievement for us and for a club like tottenham that last season played in conference league, and in november we were in trouble. jurgen klopp will be without thiago alcantara again as liverpool aim to seal qualification to the knockout rounds against ajax. avoiding defeat will see them go through. the reds boss will be able to call upon both ibrahima konate and darwin nunez for the clash in amsterdam, where he'll hope to see an improved performance from saturday's defeat at nottingham very good performances on a consistent level don't fall off trees. you have to work for it and go for it in the long term and it is what we are doing. we are working on trying to turn each screw and build without being nervous or thinking something is going against us. we
1:37 pm
know it is a difficult situation. it will be difficult tomorrow, here, away against ajax, but here i think it makes sense to be optimistic. now, it remains a worrying and recurring trend, the lack of black managers at the top of english football. there is only one, patrick viera at crystal palace, despite figures showing 43% of players in the premier league and 34% in the efl are black. he says more must be given a chance to manage. overall i believe that, you know, the doors are not open for us to do what we can do and to go into management. and when i'm talking management, i'm talking about the team, but i'm talking about the higher level as well. i think we need to be given more opportunities to show that we are as good as anybody else.
1:38 pm
that's all the sport for now. expect head back to college green. thank you very much indeed. you are watching bbc news with me, ben brown at westminster. rishi sunak has been holding his first prime minister's questions, facing keir starmer across the dispatch box. the labour leader welcomed him as the first british asian prime minister saying it was a reminder where britain is a place where people of all races and beliefs can fulfil their dreams. he then asked was the home secretary right to resign last week for a breach of security. that was a reference to suella braverman who resigned only a few days ago as home secretary over sending sensitive government information on her personal e—mail. now, she is back as home secretary reappointed by the prime minister. let's discuss that with ian murray. he is the labour mp
1:39 pm
and shadow secretary of state for scotland. thank you for being with us. what the government are saying and what the prime minister said in the cabinet officers said in response to the urgent question was that suella braverman made an error ofjudgment. she realised her mistake and acknowledged it and it is time to move and nothing to see here. ., ,, . . , .,, , . here. the home secretary “ob is a very important * here. the home secretary “ob is a very important job. fi here. the home secretary “ob is a very important job. she h here. the home secretary “ob is a very important job. she is h here. the home secretaryjob is a very important job. she is in - very importantjob. she is in charge of security in the security services, policing in this country. she has broken the ministerial code. she has broken the ministerial code. she resigned and admitted she broke the ministerial code. we had the prime minister on the steps of downing street yesterday saying he wanted to bring integrity and professionalism back into the heart of government, and his next act is someone who resigned —— to reappoint someone who resigned —— to reappoint someone who resigned only days ago. really, the country deserve better than that, and it goes up
1:40 pm
immediately that rishi sunak wants to do what is in the best interest of his party rather than the best interests of the country. in of his party rather than the best interests of the country.- interests of the country. in her resignation _ interests of the country. in her resignation letter _ interests of the country. in her resignation letter last - interests of the country. in her resignation letter last week . interests of the country. in her| resignation letter last week she said it was a technical infringement, implying it wasn't really a big deal. truth? infringement, implying it wasn't really a big deal.— really a big deal. why did she resin really a big deal. why did she resign then? _ really a big deal. why did she resign then? and _ really a big deal. why did she resign then? and why - really a big deal. why did she resign then? and why was . really a big deal. why did she resign then? and why was it. resign then? and why was it accepted. i'm sure many people are delighted by her reappointment. i'm sure the shadow secretary would be furious that she has been reappointed to the role of home secretary. it calls into question the prime minister's judgment at this very early stage. his he is reappointing someone who was resign last week for breaching national security. i think the public at there will be asking these questions as well. i think that the prime minister to back this aweigh as some kind of formality because his judgment into question as well. he said that labour were soft on crime and in favour of unlimited immigration.—
1:41 pm
and in favour of unlimited immigration. and in favour of unlimited immiaration. v , immigration. it's nonsense. keir starmerwas— immigration. it's nonsense. keir starmer was director _ immigration. it's nonsense. keir starmer was director of - immigration. it's nonsense. keir starmer was director of m - immigration. it's nonsense. keir starmer was director of m crime | starmer was director of m crime prosecutions. there is no one more experienced than him in the chamber. he said he applaud the fact that he has brought in new police officers but 20,000 have been sacked since they came into power in 2010. he is back to the borisjohnson the agenda of prime ministers question ofjust saying the first thing that comes into his head and might not necessarily be true. i think if anyone wants to question keir starmer�*s integrity and putting criminals behind bars, i think they're stepping on the wrong stage. it was quite competent performance though. some people are saying he's going to be a bit more of a formidable opponent for labour. with the party get allegations, keir starmer had a few open goals against borisjohnson. with the disastrous mini budget, a few open goals against liz truss. may be, people are saying, rishi sunak will be a

[30 economic disaster that his party has wrecked the country with.— wrecked the country with. do you think labour _ wrecked the country with. do you think labour have _ wrecked the country with. do you think labour have a _ wrecked the country with. do you think labour have a leg _ wrecked the country with. do you think labour have a leg to - think labour have a leg to sunderland at the moment? people are saying that late we haven't got enough detail from saying that late we haven't got enough detailfrom labour. will there be rises in tax? will there be cuts in tax? will they be spending cuts? labour have not answered some
1:43 pm
of those big questions on what you would do if you are in government. this is a question that is asked of us all the time. the first thing is, the government have refused to produce any document that shows any of the figures of the consequences of the figures of the consequences of the figures of the consequences of the decisions they made in government over the last three years, let alone in this mini budget. untilwe years, let alone in this mini budget. until we see those, we are not meant to make anyjudgments on the fact of what our spending and losses cuts will be. if they produce the shadow budgetjust a few months ago, you would be right to be asking me questions about that shadowed the budget. but it would be out of date in the moment it was public because of the upheaval in this government. they go right to the hard bringing a fresh start for this country. those policies will continue to keep putting forward because they are in the national interest. until we get any figures from this government, we will have no way of determining what is to be done in the future. the
1:44 pm
government — is to be done in the future. the government moved their own financial statement two november the 17th from october to 31st. it is going to be an autumnal statement. it it right for the new prime minister to take a bit more time on that. if for the new prime minister to take a bit more time on that.— bit more time on that. if they smash a car of the — bit more time on that. if they smash a car of the cliff _ bit more time on that. if they smash a car of the cliff it _ bit more time on that. if they smash a car of the cliff it takes _ bit more time on that. if they smash a car of the cliff it takes a _ bit more time on that. if they smash a car of the cliff it takes a longer - a car of the cliff it takes a longer time to take the car from the beach. it's probably right that they take a bit more time over it. but they should have produced all these figures with the office for budget responsibility back with the mini budget. that has brought people in terms of the economy. people are at home, in terms of when it is, the publication of statistics, theyjust need to look at their mortgage statements and energy bills and the receipts they get from the supermarket, and they will be thinking what on earth is going on? that is what people need to be caring about and thinking about. thank you for your time today. that
1:45 pm
is it from westminster for me for now. we will be back with much more throughout the afternoon. let's go back to jane in the studio with news from across the united kingdom. and we are going to talk about the cost of living because homeowners and businesses across the uk are preparing for a difficult winter. as the cost of living issues just don't go away. the uk government has introduced some extra financial support but is it enough? and what can a new prime minister do to try to help people who are struggling to pay the bills? as we have been reflecting today, the financial statement has been delayed. it was due to be on monday, it will now be an autumn statement? we are told the full autumn statement on november
1:46 pm
17. let's discuss that with two business owners, tracey blades owns joins me. owner of a sports shop in prestatyn in north wales and sanjay kanner who runs a dry cleaners in belfast city centre. a warm welcome to both of you. tracey, i will start with you if i may. goodness, i want to ask how its business in terms of people still coming to your shop and wanting to treat themselves to a coffee? how have things been in recent months? to coffee? how have things been in recent months?— coffee? how have things been in recent months? to be honest, they have been quite _ recent months? to be honest, they have been quite good. _ recent months? to be honest, they have been quite good. it _ recent months? to be honest, they have been quite good. it has - recent months? to be honest, they have been quite good. it has gone l have been quite good. it has gone quiet for the moment, but that is not unusualfor that quiet for the moment, but that is not unusual for that october. i think because we have got half term, and people tend to use any, i guess we would call it disposable income, un—entertaining the kids at this period. people pay for halloween

1:48 pm
only have electricity to pay for there, but energy bills for businesses would be being capped, if you like, a price cap on them, but only for six months. that was concerning for me anyway, but now as well they have come back and said that the household cap will only be for the next six months. the problem is that none of us know what is going to happen after that six month period. so, will the government be able to offer any more help. obviously, the fact that your household bills, and everybody�*s household bills, and everybody�*s household bills, and everybody�*s household bills are going to increase. we know about cost of living, we see that when we go shopping with food etc. ijust need now to see how that will affect people's spending power. i sell sports and active wear which is something that is current at the moment. but i need to find out how is that going to impact the way that

but that is the very beginning of october on the first. we are not going to get to the dizzy heights of that, but it stays very, very warm, relatively, in this south—westerly air stream. here is the forecast for the end of the day and into the evening hours. we are still talking about 18 in hull. mid—teens for glasgow and edinburgh about the same. clear for a time this evening, and then towards the end of the night, i think we will see some rain spreading into south—western parts of the uk. very blustery weather there, gale—force winds around north west scotland. with all the wind over us, it is going to be very mild. 11a overnight low in london, closer to ten in scotland. tomorrow, ithink, overall, there is going to be a lot more cloud across the uk, outbreaks of rain. you can see where they are on the weather map here. and then a few breaks developing in the afternoon across the southern half of the country. look at that. 18 in liverpool, 16 in newcastle, 16 in glasgow, and we could be

exceeding 20 celsius as we head towards the end of the week in the south—east. here is a look at friday's weather forecast. a weather front is expected across the country. that will bring a spell of heavy rain at least early in the day. and then in the afternoon, it will brighten up on friday, and it is actually going to be a pretty decent end to the day. again, 20 or more, perhaps even 22 celsius in the south—east, mid—teens further north. staying incredibly mild. the weekend is bringing jet stream here with the low pressure nestled in, and that means more unsettled weather conditions heading our way. now, the weekend is looking very mixed, a real mixed bag with spells of rain and wind spreading across the country, but we are going to see temperatures easing as we head to next week.
