and refugees at home — so less is available for projects abroad. the foreign office accepted there was "significant pressure" on aid but insisted the uk remained one of the largest global donors. a severe tropical storm has killed at least 45 people in the philippines, and left many more homeless after causing floods and landslides in southern provinces. tropical storm nalgee covers a huge area, and has brought heavy rain to much of the country. it's expected to reach the capital, manila, later today. the telecoms regulator has urged broadband providers to think carefully before putting their prices up significantly. ofcom told bbc radio 4's moneybox programme, that it had encouraged companies to put customers first at a time when the cost of living was rising. there's major disruption to rail services across scotland due to a 24—hour walk—out by scotrail workers. more than 2,000 members of the rmt union

1:08 pm
cities in scotland, dundee, inverness, aberdeen, there is absolutely nothing available today stop and that is because scotrail workers, more than 2000 of them belonging to the rmt union are on strike stop they have had an offer of pay that has been rejected. that is a 5% increase, plus a £500 payment. that has been rejected and the rmt union has said that industrial action will continue for as long as necessary. with all the sport now, here's holly hamilton at the bbc sport centre. good afternoon, wales are out of the rugby union women's world cup, beating 55—3 by host and defending champions new zealand this morning. jo currie is there, for us. the other side of the world up against the defending champions in their back yard for a place in the semifinals. wales women would need all the support they could get.
1:09 pm
after pleasantries were exchanged, wales found themselves with an early chance, which they wasted. opportunities like that would not come around very often as the black ferns started to find their feet and the width of the pitch. as time, and time, and time again, they found themselves in at the corner and they built up a commanding lead. there was a change of ends but no change of tactics for the world champions. that is porsche woodland's record try in the tournament.— try in the tournament. absolutely sumptuous! _ try in the tournament. absolutely sumptuous! black— try in the tournament. absolutely sumptuous! black audi _ try in the tournament. absolutely sumptuous! black audi black - try in the tournament. absolutely l sumptuous! black audi black ferns look at home under the lights with a performance that was hard to fault whilst wales found themselves outmuscled and outmanoeuvred as you see them put on a show worthy of a packed crowd. they move on to the final four where they will face france, whilst wales face a long flight home. like at this result
1:10 pm
will hurt but it will be seen as the beginning of the journey for wales women after the welsh rugby union only offered them full—time contracts a few months ago. it shows how much whether they still have to 90, how much whether they still have to go, if they are to close the gap on the best in the world. that go, if they are to close the gap on the best in the world.— go, if they are to close the gap on the best in the world. at the rugby lea . ue the best in the world. at the rugby league world _ the best in the world. at the rugby league world cup _ the best in the world. at the rugby league world cup ireland - the best in the world. at the rugby league world cup ireland are - the best in the world. at the rugby league world cup ireland are closej league world cup ireland are close to going out after losing 48—10, to new zealand last night. that defeat leaves them relying onjamaica to beat lebanon, if they are to reach the quarterfinals. england already in the last four late greece, today, and adam wilde is at bramall lane for us. ., �* , ., and adam wilde is at bramall lane for us. . �*, ., ., , ., for us. england's final group game of this rugby _ for us. england's final group game of this rugby league _ for us. england's final group game of this rugby league world - for us. england's final group game of this rugby league world cup. l for us. england's final group game . of this rugby league world cup. they are already safely through to the quarterfinals after victories against samoa on the opening day and last weekend, against france. the first time they have ever played greece in rugby league. they are in truth expected to win and win well, but in many ways, it is the presence
1:11 pm
of greece here that transcends any result here at bramall lane this afternoon. if you are not familiar with greece's rugby league story it is quite astonishing. it is a team that until recently was banned from playing rugby league. they had to playing rugby league. they had to play games in the middle of the night and in secret location so the fact that they are here at a world cup, going toe to toe with the host at a packed out bramall lane really is one of the most astonishing stories of this or any world cup. england will not dwell on that sentiment. they will want to reach the business end of the competition on a high. kick off here is at 2:30pm. like i thank you, adam wilde at bramall lane for us. —— rare 2:30pm. like i thank you, adam wilde at bramall lane for us. --_ at bramall lane for us. -- we have one match — at bramall lane for us. -- we have one match already _ at bramall lane for us. -- we have one match already well— at bramall lane for us. -- we have one match already well under - at bramall lane for us. -- we have one match already well under way| at bramall lane for us. -- we have | one match already well under way in the premier league. leicester city hosting manchester city. there is no erling haaland at manchester city today. he is missing out his first premier league game with that foot

injury. just approaching half—time, and it is still goalless. there is live text commentary on the bbc sport website on that. along with all today's matches and rugby league world cup details. that is all your support for now. holly, thank you very much. —— all your support. you can see more on all of today's stories on the bbc news channel. the next news on bbc one is at 5.30 bye for now. hello, you're watching the bbc news channel. more now on the news that rescue workers in the philippines are distributing aid to almost half a million people in the philippines who have been affected by a severe tropical storm, which has brought
1:13 pm
flash floods and landslides, killing at least 45 people. earlier, i got the latest from richard gordon, who's chairman and ceo of the philippine red cross. the situation has been very bad, the typhoon claimed 42 lives ready, already, in a landslide and floods. a lot of the provinces, at least 45 provinces have been ii the most severely. crop damage is high. transportation has stopped and a lot of people are stranded. we are approaching the holidays, people are beginning to go for the all saints day, the traditional holiday when they go to their provinces. so a lot of them are there to visit and most of them didn't bring enough money, so they are going hungry in the port.
1:14 pm
we're trying to handle the situation by giving them hot meals. doing the same thing with water in the areas. certainly a lot of people have lost their homes in that landslide. we are trying to figure out those most affected, particularly those who have lost their families, particularly orphans. how much coordination is there between aid agencies such as yourselves and the government? the national disaster co—ordinating law... the red cross is a subsidiary of the government. we are trying so hard to alleviate human suffering. the cycle of disaster and poverty, it's not the first time we have been hit by a typhoon. we have 2a typhoons each year, seven
1:15 pm
will be serious, like this one. this was a sleeper typhoon, it came in and we thought it wasn't going to be that strong, and suddenly it became very strong. this area wasn't even in the path of the tycoon originally. of the typhoon originally. so some areas have been flooded out. in the meantime, it's traversing the central philippines area, hopefully it will be out by tomorrow, but nonetheless it is still wreaking damage and floods. bringing challenges in terms of food scarcity. the trucks will not be able to supply food, hopefully there will be enough food in the areas, and people won't have to suffer more deprivation. given that this wasn't expected in terms of the severity and the widespread nature of the geography it has covered, how prepared were you at the red cross? well, we have conducted...
1:16 pm
we are announcing an emergency appeal, a humble appeal to try and get support, as well as the international red cross community... it's important because of the disaster reserve emergency fund... hopefully we will be able to cope and it doesn't get worse. it may not appear to cause severe enough damage, but after a few days you will find out that there are people whose lives have been overturned in the flash of a flood or a landslide. the head of the royal navy has ordered an investigation into allegations that female recruits have been sexually abused and harassed on submarines. admiral sir ben key, the first sea lord, said anyone found culpable would be held accountable regardless of rank. he has directed a senior team to investigate the claims. the uk ministry of defence says it's

improving reporting mechanisms for sexual offences. emma norton is a lawyer and founder of the centre for militaryjustice, a charity which provides independent legal advice to women and men in the armed forces. she said these cases are common. it's incredibly shocking. it never ceases to be shocking. it's not unfamiliar to us unfortunately, we've assisted very recently in a case and the accounts that were being given by the women speaking to the daily mail are strikingly similar to the accounts given by our clients. i also think they reflect very markedly the findings in a sexual harassment survey that was published very quietly earlier this year by the royal navy. what we're finding is that independent review after independent review is recommending that the investigation of cases like this be taken away from the single services themselves. while it is very good to hear that response today, it doesn't go far enough. ultimately it will still be the royal navy investigating the royal navy.
1:18 pm
so a lot of campaigners and servicewomen have been calling for, for many, many years, for those who have responsibility for investigating the most serious complaints like this to be taken away from the single services themselves and handed to an independent body. we can speak now to chris parry, a former rear admiral in the british royal navy. what do you make of these allegations we have been seeing in the daily mail newspaper? do they reflect your experiences when you were in the navy, what you saw and heard? ~ ., were in the navy, what you saw and heard? ~ . ,, . , were in the navy, what you saw and heard? ~ ., i. ., , , ., heard? what you are seeing is a mixture of— heard? what you are seeing is a mixture of anecdotal, _ heard? what you are seeing is a mixture of anecdotal, thing - heard? what you are seeing is a mixture of anecdotal, thing that really happened, and apocryphal. i was hearing some of those stories when i was in the navy 15 years ago. so they are obviously doing the rounds. eitherthe so they are obviously doing the rounds. either the press or somebody else has boosted them somewhat. i have no doubt these things have taken place. of course it depends on the regime that is being run in the
1:19 pm
submarine, the surface ship or any other unit. it is a leadership issue. but one thing i have been emphasising, this is notjust happening in the royal navy, it's happening in the royal navy, it's happening across a number of workplaces, and until we get to grips with the cultural aspects of sexual politics in the workplace, we can'tjust sexual politics in the workplace, we can't just treat it as a sexual politics in the workplace, we can'tjust treat it as a navy or armed forces issue.- can'tjust treat it as a navy or armed forces issue. no, indeed, but this story is — armed forces issue. no, indeed, but this story is about _ armed forces issue. no, indeed, but this story is about what _ armed forces issue. no, indeed, but this story is about what is _ this story is about what is happening in the navy on—board submarines. we have heard from admiral sir ben key calling the claims and horrid, saying there is no place for it in the royal navy. you heard about this kind of thing 15 years ago, why is it still carrying on? —— abhorrent. in 15 years ago, why is it still carrying on? -- abhorrent. in many cases you — carrying on? -- abhorrent. in many cases you have _ carrying on? -- abhorrent. in many cases you have one-on-one - carrying on? -- abhorrent. in many. cases you have one-on-one contact, cases you have one—on—one contact, you don't have other witnesses, you have weak leadership in some cases. when i was commanding a mixed crew, i made it very clear what i felt
1:20 pm
about this issue. we were there to defend our country, support its interests, people's sex drive had to take second to that and i had absolutely zero tolerance for any harassment, that you will or otherwise. you can't expect to go into combat with people you don't trust. this sort of behaviour undermines trust in both male and female colleagues. it's utterly unacceptable, and whenever i had any reports of it, i took immediate action to have those people removed once i had investigated the case in question. did once i had investigated the case in cuestion. , . ., ,, once i had investigated the case in ruestion. , . ., , , question. did that happen quickly? yeah, in my _ question. did that happen quickly? yeah. in my ship — question. did that happen quickly? yeah, in my ship as _ question. did that happen quickly? yeah, in my ship as it _ question. did that happen quickly? yeah, in my ship as it happened i yeah, in my ship as it happened quickly, believe me. is it yeah, in my ship as it happened quickly, believe me.— yeah, in my ship as it happened quickly, believe me. is it the case that the royal _ quickly, believe me. is it the case that the royal navy _ quickly, believe me. is it the case that the royal navy has _ quickly, believe me. is it the case that the royal navy has failed - quickly, believe me. is it the case that the royal navy has failed to l that the royal navy has failed to tackle this issue head on? ibis. that the royal navy has failed to tackle this issue head on? no, what i think we have _ tackle this issue head on? no, what i think we have to _ tackle this issue head on? no, what i think we have to recognise - i think we have to recognise particularly with regard to submarines, anything that happens in society gets compressed in a submarine and amplified. you are living cheek byjowl with people,
1:21 pm
and the sort of contact you can avoid in normal life can't happen... inevitably you are mixing with people very closely, it gets very intimate, you are under the sea for two months at a time. many of the reactions, social and workplace interaction, i'm afraid gets distorted. it takes a lot of vigilance and leadership, and personal responsibility among people to restrain their urges in these cases. it is criminal, it needs to be prosecuted, and the people removed from the fighting service. we had a moment ago from a lawyer for the centre of the military justice which represents victims in this situation, saying part of the problem is if the navy investigating itself, and it should be taken away and investigated independently. do you agree with that criticism? ibis. and investigated independently. do you agree with that criticism? ha. i you agree with that criticism? no, i think the navy has _ you agree with that criticism? no, i think the navy has a _ you agree with that criticism? no, i think the navy has a really - you agree with that criticism? iirr, i think the navy has a really good record through the court martial

israelis head to the polls on tuesday for their fifth election in four years. the current coalition is fighting to stay in power, as former prime minister benjamin netanyahu attempts a comeback. but to do so, he's relying on the growing strength of an ultra—nationalist, far right alliance. our middle east correspondent tom bateman reports. meet the new army of young voters in israel, putting theirfaith in ultra—nationalism. they're waiting for their hero. and enter from the far right, itamar ben—gvir. he's the follower of a racist movement and wants to expel what he calls disloyal arabs. ben—gvir rouses his supporters over security. translation: they should not see the light of day, _ a death sentence for the terrorists. ben—gvir electrifies his fans. they are excited because they feel they're on the verge of getting a lot stronger. a man who many felt could be kept to the fringes
1:25 pm
of israeli politics could be about to enter its government. polls suggest his party could get more seats than ever for the extreme right in the coming election. listen, i love israel and... thejihad. why do you want to ask the man they want? they want kill me and kill you, thejihadis. why do you want to expel palestinians you say are disloyal, mr ben—gvir? where tensions flare, ben—gvir will be there to pour on fuel, say his critics. in occupied eastjerusalem, he pulled out his gun, calling for palestinians who throw stones to be shot. he taunted them, saying they'd be mown down. former prime minister benjamin netanyahu, or bibi, rallies his own base. he's nurtured the extreme right, hoping to boost coalition numbers for a return to power.
1:26 pm
this veteran observer of israeli politics thinks it's a fateful moment. it's a question of what type of democracy and what type of country does it want to have. on the one hand, you have forces like itamar ben—gvir and his partner, bezalel smotrich, led by benjamin netanyahu, who want to change the type of democracy that we have in the state of israel, want to take us potentially into a dark moment. the current coalition's election ads warn that netanyahu needs the far right�*s backing as he tries to swerve corruption charges, which he denies. the incumbents say they're tough on security amid spiralling violence this year. the policies affect the many. in the occupied west bank, the army is still blocking roads from nablus over palestinian gun attacks and after a soldier was shot dead a fortnight ago. it is a slow road and palestinians call this collective punishment.
1:27 pm
back at the rally, ben—gvir�*s fans think only his party can keep them safe. there are people that have target, have go and they go forward. they don't care what is on their way. what do you mean by that? they have a target. they go forward. what do they believe? where we should be. and they go there. their opponents call them pyromaniacs as they portray themselves as patriots. israel's race to break its election deadlock sees a battle over how far the far right will reach. tom bateman, bbc news, jerusalem. a new headcam for police dogs is being trialled by police in cumbria. the force, which has been using the canine bodycams for several months, said they would be especially useful in firearms situations. davinia ramos reports. police with a dog! show yourself! dog ready? dog ready. a firearm stimulation with a twist. barks.
1:28 pm
this dog is wearing special technology to help officers know if a threat lies ahead. they've been trained to wear this equipment for the last few months, to search, to locate the suspect and then bark to tell me exactly that they've found somebody. and i can see it on my monitor what the person is, give them a description and a layout of the room the person is in, so they can move forward and deal with the suspect appropriately. get on, get on. footage from the helmet—mounted cameras can be livestreamed from up to 500 metres away, and officers can watch this on their phones, which are attached to their vests. this clever technology can make all the difference in some of the most dangerous situations. we've introduced it at a young age to the dogs, and i think putting anything on anybody's head, they're a bit unsure at the start, but we make sure that it is fun and the dogs enjoy it. we do not put them under any undue pressure, we allow them
1:29 pm
to experience it and socialise it in different elements so they get a lot happier. we have been working with heliguy for a number of months, developing this, so we have had the helmets, so we have been able to get the dogs accustomed to wearing that. it is 3d—printed, made of nylon and next to no weight in it. it's all padded and really comfortable and they're moulded to fit particular dogs. it's hoped that this technology, developed by uk company heliguy, will be rolled out to other forces across the country. currently, the police force uses mostly foreign cameras, deceloped in the states. it is quite cost—prohibitive to purchase those cameras. but with the development in the uk and supplying and servicing in the uk, we hope to bring those costs down significantly so the police can use that money to better police the uk. it's clear that seeing things through a dog's eyes can make all of the difference in keeping the public safe.
1:30 pm
now it's time for a look at the weather with stav danaos. you will notice it will be very mild indeed. especially today, temperatures up to 22 degrees across the south east with some sunny spells. you can see unsettled, no pressure out to the west and isobars on the chart drawing this mild air app on the chart drawing this mild air app from the azores pretty much right across the board. you can see the brightest spot in the east and south—east, northern ireland as well through the afternoon. northern scotland do pretty well until the rain it reaches there. much of the rest of scotland, north and west england and wales will see most of the showers, some heavy. up to 22 degrees in the south east. don't forget tonight the clocks go back one hour, so an extra hour in bed for sunday morning. a bit of cloud and rain across the south east, blustery showers out west, quite a bit of sunshine elsewhere. conditions approved in the south—east in the afternoon, and at
