it is 10:30pm. nick is with me with the weather. if you think it is warm here, further south and in africa, the heat is on a different level. we are talking temperatures into the upper 20s, the low to mid 30s. that is where the air is coming from. we are seeing high teens and low 20s. from morocco into spain and into france, these are the temperatures today compared with the long—term october average. around 10 degrees or more. we know it is warm for the time of year here. it is also rainy at times, too. low pressure to the west, and other wet leste system gathering overnight into tomorrow morning and clearing to sunny spells in the afternoon. —— wet weather system. the latest rainfall picture shows rain appearing here, so turning wet as the night goes on from south west england and wales, especially northern ireland. as the rain runs into western scotland in

the morning, a chance of flooding and disruption. the winds are strengthening come up with coastal gales in the west. these are temperatures which we might normally see by day at this time of year. that is how we start the day tomorrow. so windy, wet, rain pushing across northern england, weakening further east across towards east anglia and the south east. by the afternoon, away from the far north of scotland and northern isles, a lot of dry weather around. broken cloud, sunny spells, chance of a shower. it is a windy day and from north wales northwards, costs of 50 mph, may be for a time in northern scotland, 60 mph. take pictures take a step backwards, but they come back up on saturday to similar levels today. friday evening, it is looking fine. overnight into saturday morning, another weather system coming in so northern and western parts on saturday with rain, mainly north and west for showers on sunday, some sunny spells, mild, windy, gradually turning cooler next week.

many thanks once again. nick miller with the latest weather. that is bbc news on thursday, the 27th of october. there's more analysis of the day's main stories on newsnight, which isjust getting under way on bbc two. the news continues here on bbc one, as now it's time to join our with colleagues across the nations and regions for the news where you are. but from the ten team, it's goodnight. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the journalist and broadcaster, jenny kleeman, and the scottish political editor of the scottish sun, rachel watson. tomorrow's front pages, starting with... the guardian, there front pages are

climate change story. it highlights the unusually high temperatures in the unusually high temperatures in the uk today and the record profits made by oil giant shell. on the prime minister's decision not to go to the cop27 in egypt next month. the telegraph leaves with a story about the windfall taxes and how the pm could target energy firms to raise billions of pounds to try and balance the books. the eye features a photo of the prime minister and the labour leader and the findings of their own polling which suggests the su nak polling which suggests the su nak poll gives tories electoral hope. tax rises and spending cuts worth £50 billion to plug spending whole. and investors sell shares after

fears of a global slowdown. royals in despair is the headline in the metro, a pun on prince harry's new book culls three —— spare. the male lead is the royals dreading harry's raw and unflinching book. thanks for coming on, really interesting range of stories, a kind of climate focus to start with, quite a few different angles on it so it is quite a lot to get into. let's start with the guardian quite a striking photo on the front page, no way back? is the headline, and on a day that shell reports bumper profits and uk temperatures hit 20 degrees in october, the un finds there is no credible way to keep to

there is no credible way to keep to the 1.5 degrees celsius climate target. jenny, why don't we start with you. target. jenny, why don't we start with ou. . ~ target. jenny, why don't we start with ou. w ., target. jenny, why don't we start with ou. ., . target. jenny, why don't we start with ou. . ~ , with you. take it away. well, this is a very bleak— with you. take it away. well, this is a very bleak front _ with you. take it away. well, this is a very bleak front page - with you. take it away. well, this is a very bleak front page in - with you. take it away. well, this is a very bleak front page in the l is a very bleak front page in the guardian is putting three issues together here, the unseasonably... warm weather, although we won't be able to say unseasonally soon because it is to be getting hotter every october that we live through. these bumper profits for shell, even though shell did abide by the new rules for tax relief energy companies said in may it still managed to announce £8 billion of profit in the three months to the end of september. and these comments by the un secretary general that essentially political leaders have been distracted by ukraine and the cost of living crisis, they have taken their eye off the ball, only a root and branch transformation of society's climate disaster, we're not going to be able to get temperature rises down lower than 1.5 degrees, so it is an incredibly worrying time, and there is a lot to

unpick, three different issues. the issue with shell is that shell has not done anything wrong, just shows the policies put in place to make sure that energy companies pay tax and contribute to the public purse because obviously the government is going to be bailing out people's energy bills, but that is not really working, shell managed to reduce its tax liability by investing in the north sea, this is perfectly legal but as such it didn't take its, i didn't pay any tax, and as masses —— massive profits, more profits than it knows how to deal with.- it knows how to deal with. some defenders of _ it knows how to deal with. some defenders of those _ it knows how to deal with. some defenders of those companies i it knows how to deal with. some i defenders of those companies may point out they already pay significantly higher tax than lots of other companies because of that special status. of other companies because of that special statue— of other companies because of that special slam-— of other companies because of that special status. yes, they might, but £8 billion worth _ special status. yes, they might, but £8 billion worth of _ special status. yes, they might, but £8 billion worth of pure _ special status. yes, they might, but £8 billion worth of pure profit - special status. yes, they might, but £8 billion worth of pure profit in - £8 billion worth of pure profit in three months is quite a lot of money at a time when people are really struggling with their energy bills. i don't think anyone could argue with that gap being a lot of money.

let's go to the front page of the into land at —— the independent, su nak to skip cop27 climate summit. rachael, first thing you better do is tell us what cop27 is reminders of that and tell us what it is a political row.— of that and tell us what it is a olitical row. , , ., ,., political row. this is the un global climate conference _ political row. this is the un global climate conference which - political row. this is the un global climate conference which was - political row. this is the un global- climate conference which was hosted, c0p26 _ climate conference which was hosted, c0p26 was _ climate conference which was hosted, cop26 was hosted in glasgow last year, _ cop26 was hosted in glasgow last year. it_ cop26 was hosted in glasgow last year. it is— cop26 was hosted in glasgow last year. it is a — cop26 was hosted in glasgow last year, it is a huge global event which — year, it is a huge global event which sees world leaders travel to one country, they go and discuss climate _ one country, they go and discuss climate change, how they are going to gel— climate change, how they are going to get together and try and tackle this, there are lots and lots of officials, — this, there are lots and lots of officials, i_ this, there are lots and lots of officials, i was in glasgow last year. — officials, i was in glasgow last year. and _ officials, i was in glasgow last year. and i_ officials, i was in glasgow last year, and i have never been to an event _ year, and i have never been to an event that— year, and i have never been to an event that size before, it was insanely _ event that size before, it was insanely huge, and a lot is going on, insanely huge, and a lot is going on. and — insanely huge, and a lot is going on. and the _ insanely huge, and a lot is going on, and the world's i do turn to this, _ on, and the world's i do turn to this, and — on, and the world's i do turn to this, and i_ on, and the world's i do turn to this, and i think these front pages really— this, and i think these front pages really will— this, and i think these front pages really will draw us into next week where _ really will draw us into next week where we — really will draw us into next week where we need to get our mind back on climate _ where we need to get our mind back on climate change, clearly, because of lhis~ _ on climate change, clearly, because of lhis~ and — on climate change, clearly, because of lhis~ and i— on climate change, clearly, because of this. and i think for that reason, _ of this. and i think for that reason, it— of this. and i think for that reason, it is disappointing that rishi _ reason, it is disappointing that rishi sunak has confirmed he will

you first. remind us what a windfall taxes. . you first. remind us what a windfall taxes. , ., . ~' you first. remind us what a windfall taxes. , ., ., ~ , taxes. first of all, i think this sto taxes. first of all, i think this story does — taxes. first of all, i think this story does draw _ taxes. first of all, i think this story does draw on _ taxes. first of all, i think this story does draw on the - taxes. first of all, i think this story does draw on the two . taxes. first of all, i think this. story does draw on the two big topics that rishi sunak should be dealing with at the moment, the climate emergency, and also the fact that the uk government have a massive spending black to fail, financial black hole to fill, and here it seems there is a quote from a number ten source that suggests they haven't dismissed or rejected they haven't dismissed or rejected the idea of widening a windfall tax on energy firms, which has been a long called for by opposition parties, this is something they have been calling for all throughout summer and before. been calling for all throughout summerand before. it been calling for all throughout summer and before. it feels like almost can't remember what i was like because politics seems to move so quickly, and we went to into a summer where things one discussed as they surely —— probably should have been. but as a way to deal with soaring energy bills, labour and the snp both called for a windfall tax, or a widening of the windfall tax on

these companies that make huge profits. now, they already pay or are subject to additional taxes, but this was an idea of raising that further and putting my responsibility unto them because of the profits they are making at a time when people's energy bills are absolutely soaring. and it seems like this is something that rishi sunak has not ruled out, along with a number of other measures that will impact notjust a number of other measures that will impact not just the a number of other measures that will impact notjust the business but also people at home, too. those other measures _ also people at home, too. those other measures we _ also people at home, too. those other measures we will - also people at home, too. those other measures we will come - also people at home, too. those other measures we will come to | also people at home, too. those| other measures we will come to a minute, i will bring you onto that, jenny, when we get there, but before that, let's go to some straight politics, let's go to the i, a result of their own polling, it is quite interesting, they say sunak poll gives tories and election hope. jenny, what is this help is pretty hopeful to call it a hope, this poll

finds that rishi sunak beat keir starmer when it comes to the economy and taxes, but labour are still 25 points ahead, 23 points ahead, most people want a general election and starmer would win it by a landslide so i wouldn't really quote a hope. of course, people think that rishi sunak— of course, people think that rishi sunak has— of course, people think that rishi sunak has a sound judgment on the ecorwrny— sunak has a sound judgment on the economy and on taxes because his view of— economy and on taxes because his view of trussonomics was seen to be completely— view of trussonomics was seen to be completely right, he saw the future and we _ completely right, he saw the future and we all — completely right, he saw the future and we all saw that so of course has _ and we all saw that so of course he's going — and we all saw that so of course he's going to do well in the polls on that— he's going to do well in the polls on that count, but i think there are many— on that count, but i think there are many issues — on that count, but i think there are many issues that are very pressing for home. — many issues that are very pressing for home, this poll lead is massive, 23 points— for home, this poll lead is massive, 23 points is— for home, this poll lead is massive, 23 points is very hard to overcome, and meanwhile, we have the issue of the home _ and meanwhile, we have the issue of the home secretary suella braverman, she is— the home secretary suella braverman, she is accused of leaking and been a particular— she is accused of leaking and been a particular bad leaker, she licked something from her own personal e-mail_ something from her own personal e—mail account and licked it to the wrong _ e—mail account and licked it to the wrong person. rishi sunak has shown

quite a _ wrong person. rishi sunak has shown quite a bit _ wrong person. rishi sunak has shown quite a bit of— wrong person. rishi sunak has shown quite a bit of weakness in reappointing her in his desire to keep— reappointing her in his desire to keep the — reappointing her in his desire to keep the party together and appease the right— keep the party together and appease the right wing of his party, he has had to— the right wing of his party, he has had to make those concessions so i don't _ had to make those concessions so i don't think— had to make those concessions so i don't think there are people who would _ don't think there are people who would seem is a vertically strong leader— would seem is a vertically strong leader lrut— would seem is a vertically strong leader but it is early days, i think the conservative party will be breathing a sigh of relief, and polls— breathing a sigh of relief, and polls that are slightly less jaw—dropping the for them. polls that are slightly less jaw-dropping the for them. right, i'm auoin jaw-dropping the for them. right, i'm going to _ jaw-dropping the for them. right, i'm going to bring _ jaw-dropping the for them. right, i'm going to bring you _ jaw-dropping the for them. right, i'm going to bring you both - jaw-dropping the for them. right, i'm going to bring you both in - jaw-dropping the for them. right, i'm going to bring you both in on | i'm going to bring you both in on the financial times now, because it is a little bit about what we were talking about earlier on, these big decisions that the chancellor and the prime minister have to now take, taxes, rising, spending cuts, the balance between the two, what exactly are they going to do? the headline is sunak ways tax rises and spending cuts worth £50 billion to plug fiscal hole, is the challenge ahead of them, rachael. yes. plug fiscal hole, is the challenge ahead of them, rachael. yes, and it is a hue ahead of them, rachael. yes, and it is a huge challenge, _ ahead of them, rachael. yes, and it is a huge challenge, and _ ahead of them, rachael. yes, and it is a huge challenge, and since - ahead of them, rachael. yes, and it is a huge challenge, and since rishi| is a huge challenge, and since rishi sunak became prime minister, he has

made absolutely no effort to try and get away from the fact that they are huge, difficult decisions for him and jeremy hunt to make, and he has spoken about the profound economic crisis that the country is in and hinted to was the fact that they will have to be changes, the fact that the date for the financial statement have been moved suggest that they are looking at lots of different ways in which to raise this money and may be very differently from how liz truss had planned her economic strategy. and when you look at that, again, the fact that you've got people like nicola sturgeon who are looking on in a very concerned manner, and rishi sunak again saying to people at a time when we have mentioned, people are facing soaring energy bills and costs are going up, and he has said that while the government was to help the most vulnerable people, there is a limit to how much the government can do, that is the quote he gave the other day, and i think we will see more building to this before we get to november 17 of

the government, preparing people for a really big financial squeeze. just one uuote a really big financial squeeze. just one quote here from the article, if the huge budgetary tightening, about 2% of gdp would be the equivalent of george osborne's austerity budget backin george osborne's austerity budget back in 2010 if most of this amount was secured through spending cuts. so, that is some idea of the scale. it is frightening. that is the quote that stuck out for me. there have been weak economic forecasts from the office of budget responsivity, £50 billion black hole to fail. we now know pretty deflected lesley —— we know... this is one of those things where perhaps there have been briefings, ground being laid for what is not going to be
