good morning. welcome to breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. our headlines today... a firebomb attack on an immigration centre in dover adds to pressure on the uk border force and the home secretary. suella bravemen will face new questions today about worsening conditions and overcrowding for migrants being held in kent. as the mourning begins in south korea, details begin to emerge of the 154 people killed in saturday's crush, 11 were teenagers, more than half were women. since her diagnosis with brain cancer, laura nuttall has met michelle obama
6:01 am
and been supported by peter kay. now she tells us why she wants better treatments for people like her. i get angry at the fact treatment has not changed for decades. i get angry that my life was normal, and then it wasn't. missing out on help with energy bills? half of the government cash to support those on pre—payment meters goes unclaimed this month. i'll have the details you need to ensure you don't lose out. world cup watch in the premier league. how marcus rashford starred for manchester united but bukayo saka could face a race to be fit for qatar. a mild start to the day once again. as we _ a mild start to the day once again. as we go _ a mild start to the day once again. as we go through the week
6:02 am
temperatures will recover to closer to where _ temperatures will recover to closer to where they should be at this stage _ to where they should be at this stage in— to where they should be at this stage in the year. all the details leter~ _ it's monday, october the 31st. our main story. an investigation is underway in dover afterfirebombs were launched at a migrant centre. police are not currently treating the attack as a terrorist incident and say the suspect was later found dead. it comes as the government is facing increased questions over its immigration policy, as matt graveling reports. this entry point for thousands of migrants coming to the uk, many fleeing from war, came under attack yesterday morning. a man in a white car threw three incendiary devices at this building, two of them burst into flames. his motive remained unclear. and then it was at this petrol station on limekiln street, on the seafront in dover, where the man drove a white vehicle, which you can just about see behind my right shoulder under a blue tarpaulin and took his own life.
6:03 am
kent police have said the suspect has been identified, and his next of kin are being informed. last night, police remained at this petrol station, looking for answers as to what had led to these events. the attack came just hours after reports that almost 1,000 migrants had arrived in dover in a single day, and there has been criticism of the conditions that they are kept in. the conservative mp for dover said that tensions have been rising in the area. i raised my concerns about the rising level of tensions with the immigration minister earlier this week. it's absolutely vital that we get a grip of this issue and that the boats are stopped from leaving france. and that's what now needs to happen. and i think that is a conversation between rishi sunak, the prime minister, and president macron. the investigation into what happened here is being led by kent police and not counter—terrorism officers. and home office minister robert jenrick said he is being updated by the force.
6:04 am
the home office said they are aware of the incident but are unable to comment further at this time. matt graveling, bbc news. let's speak now to our chief political correspondent, nick eardley, whojoins us from westminster. nick, the attack on the migrants centre in dover comes at a time of increasing pressure on the home secretary. morning. on the home secretary. it absolutely does. you have morning. it absolutely does. you have the situation in dover, also real concern over the situation in kent, at another processing centre where conditions have been described as intolerable, there had been disease outbreaks. real fears about overcrowding as asylum applications are processed. there has been a lot of criticism over the way the home office has approached overcrowding
6:05 am
issues. some conservative mps for example saying it is wrong not to spend more money on hotels to avoid that overcrowding we have seen in recent days. there is pressure on the home secretary on that front and continued pressure over that situation we were talking about last week where the home secretary's e—mail use, and that e—mail she sent to someone in parliament which contain sensitive information. she was sacked over that and brought back by rishi sunak when he became prime minister. those questions have not gone away. yesterday there were more revelations about the timeline which call into question suella braverman�*s claims that she raised the fact she mistakenly sent an e—mail as soon as she could. it seems there is now a few hours between her realising the mistake and it being flagged by their most senior civil servant, the cabinet secretary. all of that means the home secretary is facing real
6:06 am
pressure and wheel questions, both on policy and e—mail use as well. —— and real questions. two men have died following a shooting in south london. police were called to the brixton area just before eight o'clock yesterday. vincent mcaviney is at the scene. vincent, what more can you tell us? good morning. we have seen police forensic officers working through the night at the scene here in brixton. a police cording has shut off several roads. police were called around 7:50pm yesterday to reports of gunshots. they found two men injured in the street. despite best efforts they succumbed to those injuries here at the scene. locals report they had as many as 12 gunshots between the exchange, between a pair on a pad you can see on the street and i crashed car further down the street as well. ——
6:07 am
on a mopeds. the next of kin had not been informed. a postmortem will take place later on. police have made no arrests. they will increase patrols in this area. it is the second deadly double shooting in the capital injust under a second deadly double shooting in the capital in just under a week. thank capital in “ust under a week. thank ou. funerals have been taking place of some of the 154 people, who died in a crush in south korea. it isa it is a terrible incident, isn't it? more than 130 others were injured, as around 100,000 revellers gathered in a popular district of the capital, seoul, to celebrate halloween on saturday night. let's get the latest now from our correspondent, nick marsh, who's at the scene. nick, what more can you tell us about the victims, and are we any closer to finding out what caused this tragedy? in terms of who the victims were, they were overwhelmingly young people in their teens and early 20s.
6:08 am
154 people in the end lost their lives right here in this alley. it is a popular nightlife district. it was a big night out, the first halloween night out since have owned virus restrictions were pretty much entirely lifted. now the investigation starts. —— since covid restrictions were pretty much entirely lifted. it has been promised there will be an inquiry as to what happened. in the last 20 minutes also we saw coming through here, ducking under these orange police cordons, about two dozen blackjacketed detectives and white coated forensic experts. they came at this alleyway, had clipboards when they were taking photographs. there were a lot of media here, possibly awaiting their arrival, we do not know. really the key question is what happened in terms of
6:09 am
policing. police say there were about 200 officers deployed. some say that might not have been enough and also there weren't enough resources diverted into crowd control rather than other conventional anti—crime prevention. this is the first step in trying to find out exactly what happened and who, if anyone, find out exactly what happened and who, ifanyone, can find out exactly what happened and who, if anyone, can or should be held responsible. another terrible story over the weekend. 132 people — mainly women, children and the elderly — are now known to have died when a pedestrian bridge collapsed into a river in the indian state of gujarat. the bridge, which re—opened last week following renovations, was packed with people celebrating diwali when it gave way. more than 177 people have been rescued so far, according to officials. brazil's right—wing president jair bolsonaro has been narrowly defeated in national elections — by the former left—wing

6:14 am
apologies if you are just tucking into your breakfast. shall we get the weather? we are loving the pumpkins. they look great. good morning. ithink good morning. i think we'll get a lot of weather watcher pictures this morning that a pumpkins, like these fabulous knitted ones from east sussex. if you are trick or treating later, bear in mind it will be wet. to start the day, it is mild. there is a lot of dry weather with sunshine and one or two showers. this band of rain comes in from the west must some of it will be heavy. it will clear the western isles as we go through the course of the day. the blustery day in prospect. the strongest winds will be towards the west. these are the temperatures, 12 to 18. notice there are showers coming in across the south coast as
6:15 am
we head towards the afternoon. this evening and overnight if you are trick or treating, you can see how all the rain moves north. the rain coming in from the west tends to merge with it. it is not as heavy and the wind will really pick up across the english channel, the channel islands and around the cornish coastline as well. gas could be as much as 50 miles an hour. for some of the temperatures will be lower than last night. generally speaking we are looking at nine to 12 degrees. as we head into tomorrow, all the rain pushes away quite quickly from the north—east. behind that a return to sunshine. some showers, some of which will be heavy and pantry. it will be windy through the channel once more but i blustery day generally. you are keen for more pumpkin pictures from people this morning. any pictures are good but pumpkins today would be
6:16 am
particularly good. thank you. we will try to get you sam. thank you. time now for a catch—up with a remarkable young woman, who has featured on breakfast before. her name's laura nuttall, she has aggressive brain tumours, and she's determined to squeeze every last drop ofjoy from her life. every last drop ofjoy however, laura and herfamily are also angry that more funding and research is not going towards developing treatments for a cancer, which kills more children and young adults than any other form of the dieases. john maguire went to meet her. how do you monitor your health? a thermometer? check your weight? maybe your blood pressure. but i bet you don't use a rubik's cube. laura nuttall does. i kind of used it as a baseline. so every surgery, if i can come out and still do the rubik's cube, i'm all right. yay. laura'sjust had herfourth major brain surgery at salford royal, removing cancerous and highly—aggressive tumours. she was first diagnosed this time four years ago, just weeks into starting university in london.
6:17 am
she'd had headaches but wasn't worried. looking back, they were different sort of headaches. there were headaches that were so bad that i wouldn't be able to see, or they were so bad that i'd kind of lose bits of memory, where i wouldn't be able to tell you what i'd done the previous day, or wouldn't be able to tell you how to get from there to there or do it myself. i'd get lost quite a lot. it was a routine eye test that first raised concerns and, within days, laura underwent her first operation. so the surgery went really well and she recovered and we were very delighted and felt like we'd won a battle. and then we got the prognosis following the analysis of the tumour. and it was the worst news imaginable — that it was a really aggressive brain cancer called glioblastoma and it was already grade 4, because it's always grade 4. and we were told she had probably about a year to live, and if we hadn't had any treatment on from that,
6:18 am
it would have been three months. so to go from being in your first term at uni to being told you've got a year to live in a period of a few weeks was... yeah. ..pretty devastating. given just a year to live, but still here four years later, is testament to the support from her family and friends and the incredible care she's received both here and in germany during frequent visits for treatment, even throughout the pandemic lockdowns. some treatments out there are quite far advanced, and they're doing things out there that they're not doing in the uk. so there's nothing that we won't do to try and find treatment for laura because she's really precious to us. she has good days and bad days. i think we've kind of learned to work with that and accept that that is what our life is now. and grace in that. oh, yeah. and grace as well. you've learned to kind of accept
6:19 am
that those things are going to happen, and try and make the most of it? mm—hm. and make sure that we're all we're doing all right. yeah. so she's determined to make the good days amazing ones, fulfilling ambitions, such as taking control of a royal navy vessel, firing live rounds with greater manchester police, graduating from manchester university in the summer, and even meeting michelle obama. but there are still those bad days. do you ever get angry? yeah. i get angry at the fact that the treatment has not changed for decades. i get angry that my life was normal, and then it wasn't really, really quickly. and the fact that it's notjust me that that happens to. i think that's when i've seen you most angry
6:20 am
is when we lose somebody. yeah. that really hits you hard, isn't it? —— doesn't it? yeah. and it makes me question, why am i still here? they've gone. what's so special about me? this is the biggest cancer killer in children and adults under 40. gosh! why? and it gets about 2% of the cancer research fund spend. so itjust seems disproportionate that it kills so many people, so many young people, and yet it's so badly funded. and i think it'sjust because it's hard. but if we do nothing else, we want to raise awareness of that fact. yeah. because things need to change. it needs to be better. it does. we've lost far too many young people. so they're campaigning on all fronts to help others affected by glioblastoma, while also exploring all options for laura. we either go with the radiotherapy and the chemo or we just wait for it to kill her. so it's not in your nature
6:21 am
to wait for things, is it? no, it's not. so we're going to be as proactive as we can be. laura says she has no choice but to fight. and this is the fight of her young life. yeah. john maguire, bbc news, lancashire. she is an amazing girl. amazing family. what a support team around her. we are going to discuss this later on the programme. we'll be talking to kelsey parker — the widow of the pop star tom parker. tom died in march from a brain tumour — and kelsey shares laura's hopes for new treatments. especially for young people. that is just after eight o'clock this morning. let's take a look at today's papers. the attack on the migrant centre in dover is on lots of the front pages,
6:22 am
including the express. the paper reports that two people were hurt when the devices exploded and the bomb squad deactivated another device found in the attacker�*s car in a petrol station. the guardian says ministers are accused of creating "wild west" conditions in matters of national security by the increased use of personal e—mail and phones to conduct confidential business. the guardian says crossbench peer and former head of the british army, richard dannett, has accused liz truss and home secretary suella braverman of "ill discipline" and "poor judgment." the mirror says the nhs is facing its worst winter on record, as doctors fear a mix in covid and flu cases will spark a crisis. the brazilian report includes this photo of lula da silva, who has won an unprecedented third presidential term. the website says jair bolsinaro, who was voted out of office,
6:23 am
"threw everything but the kitchen sink at his campaign." but he lost. you will probably have noticed it is halloween. lots of than had pictures of dogs dressing up. lots of them scary and some less so. this is alex scott, properly looking properly scary. she is calypso from pirates of the caribbean. that is kim kardashian from avatar, i think. phillip schofield and rob bryden, you can't really tell whether either are in scary outfits. rob is dressed as elvis and philip schofield is a ghostbuster. if you are looking for
6:24 am
inspiration for halloween later tonight look at this. this is burnley in lancashire. sally with eight—year—old son frankie. look at the house! i hope either of the caribbean experience. that is all there house, the front, the back. an evil cackle that has sounded. a graveyard in the front garden. they are surely open for tours. they should be. they should be charging. this is sally and skeleton. she has got a glass of wine in her hand. she will need it to calm her nerves. it is like america, isn't it? very big. have you decorated your house? not yet. my house is scary enough without the decorations. more than 200 dogs have participated in a special halloween charity walk, dressed in their very own spooky attire.
6:25 am
a friend of yours, particularly. i know you are a big fan. the pack were led by pumpkin, a paralysed west highland terrier, with the help of her wheelchair. simon sparks went to meet her. this is pumpkin at only ten weeks old, just getting used to her wheels. but now look at her. stronger and faster than ever. last year money was being raised so that pumpkin could have an operation. but that wasn't possible. it was revealed that pumpkin's spine had been broken due to extreme trauma. something we wasn't aware of and something we weren't prepared for. so the money raised for her operation has started a charity instead. called pumpkin and friends, with pumpkin being the charity ambassador. oh, yes! well—trained!
6:26 am
pumpkin has developed this very, very cheeky personality. and this is why her videos go viral, because she is full of personality. isn't it? that's enough now! in the 12 months, pumpkin has raised over £50,000. we provide wheelchairs, hydrotherapy, physiotherapy. the animals that we help are called wheelie good friends. 42 of which are dogs. and then we have a little goat that we've helped. the goat is a five—month—old goat called little legs. and he is gorgeous. her charity has earned her the title of hero dog of the year. but for her final big money raiser, the halloween dog walk in lincoln, she faced a dilemma. she has a choice of two costumes. a spooky spider or a cute pumpkin. and here they are. so what do you think she went as? the spooky spider on the left?
6:27 am
0r pumpkin as a pumpkin on the right? she wouldn't walk with a hat though, as she hates it. well, the spider was top choice. pumpkin was too obvious, wasn't it? and she took the lead with over 200 dogs in their scary costumes, raising money so other dogs can benefit in the future. simon spark, bbc news, lincoln. well done, pumpkin! whata remarkable event. and the following pumpkin has. what would you have chosen? the spider or the pumpkin? spider. i would chosen? the spider or the pumpkin? spider. iwould have chosen? the spider or the pumpkin? spider. i would have gone for the pumpkin. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm victoria hollins.
6:28 am
28 households have been told they have to leave their homes at the former walthamstow dogs site by the housing association l&q, because of building works that will take years to complete. residents have been offered £5,000 in compensation, but many are devastated, saying there's no way they can afford to rent privately in the area any more because prices have gone up so much. it's just so shocking, so unexpected, um... yeah, i think i'm still in a bit of shock over it, to be honest, because it's not what you would expect from who are, in fact, the biggest landlord in waltham forest. we asked l&q about our story and they told us...
6:29 am
two men have died following a shooting in south london. sounds of gunfire were reported in railton road in brixton shortly before eight o'clock last night, and a car was badly damaged. police, including firearms officers, attended along with the london ambulance service and air ambulance. they were unable to save the injured men. no one has been arrested, but there are road closures in place. students are launching legal action against london universities over disruption to their studies during covid lockdowns. almost 20,000 have alreadyjoined group claims after paying between £9,000 and £40,000 a year for reduced timetables and lessons that were cancelled or moved online rather than in face—to—face tutorials or seminars. if you're about to head out, let's take a look at the tubes now. there's a good service on the tubes this morning, apart from severe delays on the central line and minor delays on the circle line. now onto the weather with elizabeth rizzini. hello, there. good morning. as we head through this

6:37 am
into contention? has he done enough? the worrying thing is an injury to kaio zakaa. he is going to potentially face a race to be fed. and what about kieffer moore, bournemouth striker who plays for wales, scoring at the weekend? their first world cup since 1958. good morning. marcus rashford says he is in a better headspace after struggles away from the pitch last season. today my things could be coming together atjust season. today my things could be coming together at just the season. today my things could be coming together atjust the right time, with united a point off the top four. the greatest of english football is where manchester united are aiming to get back to. a few tough years means they've not been at the top for a while. but under erik ten hag something is stirring. four league games unbeaten has seen his side are growing in belief and sneaking up the table. pre—match united's manager had called for more goals from his team against west ham. marcus rashford did his best to oblige, not once, but twice. and as the famous proverb goes, third time's a charm.
6:38 am
pre—match united's manager had called for more goals rashford! 1—0 at the break. and if united striker was the star of the first—half, well, their goalkeeper was the star the second. david de gea denied mikel antonio. and if that save was good, his next was even better. united needed a second. fred very nearly got it, and united were very nearly made to pay. de gea at his brilliant best once again. united hung on and continue to look up. the ten hag transformation continues. michael redford, bbc news. so not a bad little birthday present for marcus rashford today, in front of the england manager, gareth southgate, who was watching yesterday and erik tan haag, who also enjoyed what he saw. marcus rashford, i think he's representing that fact. he scored a brilliant goal, great pass from christian eriksen, great header, the day before his birthday — his 100 — is a real milestone, and it's a fantastic achievement. so what of bukayo saka?
6:39 am
just to be clear, it's not his 100th birthday! it was his 100th goal! a player who brings great energy and drive whenever he plays for club or country. he went off in aresenal�*s 5—0 win against forest. not before he set up the first goal for gabriel martinelli in their 5—0 victory. but saka then picked up an injury — after being tackled — and was substituted, with the world cup three weeks away. it was a tricky afternoon. and on the reverse side of that — is there any news on bukayo saka? it did look a worry. yeah, he had to come off. he wasn't comfortable. he had a really bad kick in the first ball and he could not continue, so let's see how he is.
6:40 am
no news yet? no. 0ne one to watch. celtic restored their four point gap at the top of the table. no guesses needed where this ball�*s going. greg taylor with their second in a 3—0 win over livingston. history was made in the women's super league, as arsenal set a new record of 13 successive wins. they beat west ham 3—1 — frida maanum with arsenal's final goal. elsewhere, tottenham thrashed brighton 8—0, while there were also wins for manchester united, manchester city, chelsea and reading. and talking of setting records — max verstappen has set a new one for the most race wins in a season. his 14th came at the mexico grand prix, having started on pole. lewis hamilton came second, over 15 seconds behind verstappen, with his red bull teammate sergio perez in third. meanwhile, england are celebrating becoming the inaugural physical disability rugby league
6:41 am
world cup champions. they beat new zealand in the final in warrington, winning 42—10. the home side ran in eight tries, including two each for captain scott gobin and sam zeller. the victory completes an unbeaten tournament for england, who won all four of their matches. brilliant for them. and it was interesting, lewis hamilton. mercedes are saying that he has got a job for life there at the moment. he has got one year left on his contract. they say he could be rising well into his 405. he is 37 at the moment. another year. there is no reason why not. he is a fit quy- is no reason why not. he is a fit guy. he wants to stand alone on the number of world titles. he could get many more shots at it. interesting. good luck trying to climb into the car! do you think they will do that for him when he gets to 40?
6:42 am
more toilet breaks! it's a month since the government began paying energy support payments. but some of the most vulnerable people still aren't getting the help they need. nina, tell us more. good morning. every penny counts at the moment. especially as we start heading into the winter. really important to make the most of that money from the government. yes, this is the help we were promised with our energy bills this winter. the government pledged to give every household in england, scotland and wales £400 towards their gas and electricity costs over the next six months. northern ireland has a similar scheme. payments started in october. so by now you should have received your first monthly instalment of £66. for those paying direct debit5, this money should be either credited to your account, or paid directly into your bank, depending on your supplier. all of this should happen automatically. if you're one of the 4.5 million people on a pre—payment meter, you should have been sent a voucher through the post for you to redeem
6:43 am
at a shop or a post office. but we've seen figures which suggest many households are missing out on the cash they're owed. so what we found is that about the money should have a surgery to customers around the uk by nine 5upplier5. roughlyju5t over half of those have been redeemed by customers itself. so actually, that cu5tomers itself. so actually, that represents about £27 million worth of vital support that is in the hands of customers that really needed. but obviously, that also means there are quite a lot of customers who have not redeemed itself. if they haven't received a voucher, please contact your supplier. there's some really good information and advice with organisations like citizens advice. mo5t organisations like citizens advice. most importantly, keep an eye on the expiry date and make sure you redeem it to make sure you get that vital support this winter. that is a really important point.
6:44 am
thi5 winter, the vouchers are only valid for 90 days. so the advice is to check through your post and make sure you claim in plenty of time. now, this support is only set to last for six months. and that coincides with the end of the government's energy price guarantee, which sets the typical annual household bill at £2500. remember, if you use more energy, you'll pay more. bills were set to soar to more than £3,500 this winter without that support. and the fear is they'll increase ma55ively once it ends. so what happens from april? well, at the moment, we've got very few details. the new chancellor has signalled support will be targeted at those most in need. the government is set to outline its new tax and spending plans in the autumn statement on november 17th. so there will be something in that for everyone. but this morning, a really important reminder to those on prepayment metres to check their mail. half of them not getting the voucher. 0ften
6:45 am
mail. half of them not getting the voucher. often people on prepayment metres, it is important they get that support. thank you. there are lots of resources on the bbc online to help you. there is a whole cost of living section on there with all the stories you need but also the information and groups and organisations you can go to for help. john has been particularly impressed with carol's pumpkin5 this morning. she has put them away, now we have a ghost. gho5t. good morning. there are a few pumpkin5 in the midst of the ghosts. and they brilliant? thank you for sending them in. this one taken earlier today in bedfordshire. we have got another one taken in york as well. beautiful carving. what we have today weather—wise i5 as well. beautiful carving. what we have today weather—wise is an area of low pressure bringing in some affront tos, bringing some rain. for many it is a start, relatively mild for the time of the year as well.

6:49 am
you may recall we broadcast this programme from sunderland a couple of weeks ago, as we kicked off a tour of the uk to see how people are coping with soaring bills. 0ur cost of living correspondent colletta smith will be hitting the road for the next few months, and the first leg of her journey took her down through north yorkshire. let's say hi to coletta now. hi, there. good morning. a week or so ago, i was toasty and warm during breakfast. it's been transformed by the pallion action community group into one of sunderland's warm spaces. hearing how this community group have taken the cost of living crisis into their own hands. it's friendly, it's fun, it's free. so, just get yourselves along. it's been a busy morning, and things are really filling up here now. but i'm hitting the road. thanks very much, debbie, for having me. take care! it's not the end of the road for me, though.
6:50 am
in fact, it'sjust about the beginning, because i am heading off on a road trip. over the next few months i'll be travelling right across the uk, hearing more stories like this, of communities and people doing things differently to try and help each other and get themselves through this cost of living crisis. leaving the cityscape of sunderland behind and winding my way through teesside into north yorkshire. the little market town of richmond, a world away from the hustle and bustle of a big city. but there's plenty of folks here hard at work. have you upped your prices? our prices have gone up, but this was priced quite some time ago. so we have to stick and honour our prices as a gesture of goodwill to people. but yeah, obviously the cost of materials has gone up and the cost of lads�* wages has gone up. so with five kids, are they all still at home? no, just two of them at home. but you're always funding them, aren't you? 0ne, i'm charging a bit more,
6:51 am
and two, i'm having to work on a weekend. so, yeah. so you're working, what, six, seven days a week? six days a week, yeah. and then a game of golf, if i can. there's always money for golf! i had an early start and i've been on the go. so there's only one thing i'm after at this market. 0ne breakfast, no toast, 0k? look at this. this is what i'm after. thank you so much. now we're talking. nanette and sheila were the beating heart of this little town, as the cafe's keeping people full and warm. but their budgets are stretched. 0nce, love, i'd buy anything, if i fancied it. but i look at the prices and think, well, ijust can't afford it. does it feel like rents are stretched? things are expensive? yeah. i'm 58, and i know there's no way i could afford to buy a house. no way. my eldest daughter works full time and she'sjust asked me, well, a couple of months ago, for a saturdayjob in here to boost her wages. it's tough, though,
6:52 am
like if she's worked all week, then to be coming in on a saturday? yeah. — yeah, she's tired. she's got sunday off, back to work on a monday. are you going to give you the job? will she be any good? yeah, she's worked for me on and off for years. it's really interesting to hear how people are actually managing inflation. with the price of everything increasing faster than wages, they're working longer and harder to cover their bills. the same's true at my next stop. this pub in grewelthorpe's being stripped back. we're going to double that up into potato toppings. that's a really good idea, actually. so we do that. there's not much wastage with jackets either. paul and debbie are overhauling the menu today. from our point of view, it's affordable for us to buy it, but also, then it'll pass down to the customers. they're reintroducing the evening takeaway service they ran during lockdowns, too. i delivered in the local area in the car. you can't be delivering and serving behind the bar. rdo. — no, honestly, idid. i've got to jump up from behind in the kitchen and pour pints. i got in the car, ran down the road, handed them
6:53 am
in and ran back up again. a jack of all trades, then. yeah, yeah. because you can't take on extra staff at the moment, then? you wouldn't be able to cover that? we never know what the weekend's going to bring. the worst case scenario, and i've already been looking, is for me to go and work monday to friday elsewhere. paul would work here in the evenings, thursday and friday, and then i would come back and do the weekends. i'd do friday night and the weekends. and if ijust did that for short term, even the next four or five months at least, we have a guaranteed wage coming in. at the moment we do not have a guaranteed loan coming in. and that's the thing that's most frightening, ithink, isn't it? i mean, we heard recently that the next village along's got a fish and chip shop, and the owner of that is actually doing similarto us, closing monday, tuesday, wednesday. he's already got a job. yeah, he's got a job monday, tuesday, wednesday. so, yeah. he's working elsewhere and just doing the weekends. extra jobs and longer hours are already the reality for so many. no one's giving up hope. they're just doing the things in their power to keep the lights on and fires burning this autumn. coletta smith, bbc news.
6:54 am
it's really interesting to see what goes on, those decisions that are being made behind the scenes. you go into a pub or restaurant and you see what you see, but you don't know the agony of those decisions companies are having to make. that is true. we are just getting reports this morning from our correspondents in kyiv of an explosion that has happened there. just a short time ago. i can tell you this from the british ambassador to ukraine, who has posted this. sheltering down low and listening to booms outside. kyiv is under attack again. what is it about mondays? those reports just coming to us in the last few minutes. a little bit more information coming through now. yeah, it wasjust more information coming through now. yeah, it was just after six o'clock, our time. they are two hours ahead.
6:55 am
about eight o'clock in kyiv. lights went off a minute. bbc correspondents singh and serious raid against civilian infrastructure on the outskirts of kiel. apparently there are a red alerts across ukraine, apart from crimea. it looks like another advance in the russian campaign. and the reuters news agency has just posted in the last few minutes that there are power cuts across kyiv. areas of the city without power. we havejust cuts across kyiv. areas of the city without power. we have just told you they are about an explosion that has happened just a short time ago in kyiv. the british ambassador there is saying that kyiv is under attack again. we will try to make contact with our team. 0bviously mike they will have to make sure they are safely deployed. as soon as we have made contact with them, hopefully we will get some more information from the ukrainian capital is the programme goes on. time now to get the news,
6:56 am
travel and weather where you are. hello, good morning from bbc london. two men have died following a shooting in south london. sounds of gunfire were reported in railton road in brixton, shortly before 8 o'clock last night and a car was badly damaged. police, including firearms officers attended along with the london ambulance service and air ambulance. they were unable to save the injured men. no—one has been arrested but there are road closures in place. 28 households have been told they have to leave their homes at the former walthamstow dogs site by the housing association l&q because of building works that will take years to complete. residents have been offered £5,000 in compensation but many are devastated, saying there's no way they can afford to rent privately in the area anymore because prices have gone up so much.
6:57 am
it's just so shocking, so unexpected, um... yeah, i think i'm still in a bit of shock over it, to be honest, because it's not what you would expect from who are, in fact, the biggest landlord in waltham forest. we asked l&q about our story and they told us. students are launching legal action against london universities over disruption to their studies during covid lockdowns. almost 20,000 have alreadyjoined group claims after paying between £9,000 and £40,000 a year for reduced timetables and lessons that were cancelled or moved online rather than in face—to—face tutorials or seminars.
6:58 am
if you're about to head out, let's take a look at the tubes now. there's a good service on the tubes this morning, apart from severe delays on the central line and minor delays on the circle line. now onto the weather with elizabeth rizzini. hello, there. good morning. as we head through this working week, temperatures will start to return back down to the seasonal average. so it will be turning cooler, but it will be wet and windy at times. various atlantic systems moving eastwards. it's quite unsettled. but here across the capital, lots of dry weather, too, in the forecast, including today. and if you're out trick or treating this evening, earlier is going to be better. now for this morning, well, it's a chillier start to the day than we saw over the weekend. there's some spells of brightness and sunshine around first thing. also a few early mist patches. they'll slowly lift and clear. we'll keep the sunny spells for much of the morning, but more cloud into the afternoon, with a small chance of a few isolated showers. but for many of us, i think it will stay largely dry. temperatures are lower certainly than they were over the weekend, and there's quite a brisk and noticeable southerly to south easterly wind blowing too.
6:59 am
now as we head through the evening, well, it's certainly dry at first with some clear spells, but it will start to cloud over. some outbreaks of showery rain through the second half of the night and into tomorrow morning. it's a wet and windy start to tuesday. strong, gusty winds, some rain through tuesday morning. it's looking drier with some sunny spells in the afternoon. that's it. we're back in half an hour.

7:02 am
as matt graveling reports. this entry point for thousands of migrants coming to the uk, many fleeing from war, came under attack yesterday morning. a man in a white car threw three incendiary devices at this building, two of them burst into flames. his motive remained unclear. and then it was at this petrol station on limekiln street, on the seafront in dover, where the man drove a white vehicle, which you can just about see behind my right shoulder under a blue tarpaulin and took his own life. kent police have said the suspect has been identified, and his next of kin are being informed. last night, police remained at this petrol station, looking for answers as to what had led to these events. the attack came just hours after reports that almost 1,000 migrants had arrived in dover in a single day, and there has been criticism of the conditions that they are kept in. the conservative mp for dover said that tensions have been rising in the area. i raised my concerns about the rising level of tensions
7:03 am
with the immigration minister earlier this week. it's absolutely vital that we get a grip of this issue and that the boats are stopped from leaving france. and that's what now needs to happen. and i think that is a conversation between rishi sunak, the prime minister, and president macron. the investigation into what happened here is being led by kent police and not counter—terrorism officers. and home office minister robert jenrick said he is being updated by the force. the home office said they are aware of the incident but are unable to comment further at this time. matt graveling, bbc news. we can speak now to our home affairs correspondent, daniel sandford, who is in dover. there is this incident yesterday. that at a time when there is increased scrutiny of the government's entire immigration policy. government's entire immigration

7:07 am
the amazon rainforest in his victory speech. 0ur south america correspondent katy watson sent this report from sao paulo. cheering. celebration on the streets of sao paulo, and a sense of relief. they predicted a tight race and it was a nailbiter to the very end. feeling relieved not only for the brazilian people, but for the whole planet, for the amazon, for the democracy, for human rights. so we are very happy. it is a very divided country, though. there will be a lot of people unhappy. yes, because it was very little difference, a small difference. so we have to be very patient and we have to leave the anger and the hatred away. what a comeback for brazil's president—elect, a man who left powerjust 12 years ago with a sky—high approval rating but who
7:08 am
then subsequently fell from grace over corruption scandals. here he is again, lula 2.0. it was the hardest campaign of my life, it wasn't men against men, party against party, it was a group of people, who love freedom and democracy against authoritarianism. the noise on the streets filled the silence from bolsonaro's camp. the speculation was that he went to bed. while voting was largely peaceful, there was a lot of expectation and nerves on sunday, as people cast their ballots. in this unequal country, the divide was clear — rich and poor, left and right. people had a stark choice to make. i voted for bolsonaro, of course. what is the best thing about bolsonaro? why do you like bolsonaro? i don't agree with him, like, 100%. i think he has a lot of flaws. but he's a man of god,
7:09 am
he has the right principles. very sad in my opinion to see brazil in this state where we have to decide between two candidates that make brazil such a polarised country, inciting violence, extremes. i think especially, they don't represent any of the young population, right. any progress in the country. it's really very sad. my vote is a vote of protest. amid such division, it was lula who made it to the finish line first. people here are shouting, "lula has returned." like him or loathe him, this is an historic moment for brazil, 20 years after lula first became president, he's back in the top job. for these people, a lula victory is not a victory for brazil. his job will be to unite them and be their president, too. lula will have to contend with conservative lawmakers in whatever he wants to do. it won't be easy but tonight these

i'm going to start with the incident we have been reporting in dave yesterday, the explosions, the attack on a different centre. just your reaction to what happened. it was truly awful what happened. a huge thank you to emergency services and the border. who have been dealing with this awful attack. it is clearly very distressing. comes at a time of _ is clearly very distressing. comes at a time of hugely _ is clearly very distressing. comes at a time of hugely increased - at a time of hugely increased tensions, doesn't it over immigration policy? if you could explain to us what a labour policy would be, what would labour be doing differently? we would be, what would labour be doing differentl ? ~ ., ., ., ., differently? we need an overhaul of the whole system. _ differently? we need an overhaul of the whole system. there _ differently? we need an overhaul of the whole system. there are - differently? we need an overhaul of the whole system. there are a - differently? we need an overhaul ofl the whole system. there are a series of different problems. just weekend we had reports around the serious overcrowding, possibly illegal overcrowding, possibly illegal overcrowding and diphtheria outbreak at manston. the attack at dover.
7:18 am
0ther at manston. the attack at dover. other serious home affairs issues this morning, including cybersecurity allegations. the person who should be responding on your programme this morning is the home secretary. she cannot put a statement into parliament because she cannot answer her own questions about security breaches and lapses as well. in terms of what ought to happen, there has to be an urgent action to clear the backlog. there is a huge increase in the back lot because the home office is not taking decisions. they are only taking decisions. they are only taking 14,000 decisions a year. they used to take twice as many asylum decisions as that. there is a big increase in the backlog and that has caused problems. of course you need much stronger action to prevent dangerous bait crossing which are putting lives at risk. that is why labour would have a new increase, a new unit as part of the national

7:20 am
bureaucracy which means cases are taking an extra six months and top of what they would normally take. they need to make your decision is much more efficient and go back to the way they were processing claims much more quickly. they could do that. with france, we need a much stronger and better agreement with france to prevent boats setting up in the first place and also to replace some of the old arrangements that used to take place to allow us to better cooperate both on security and migration itself.— and migration itself. rachel reeves said something _ and migration itself. rachel reeves said something very _ and migration itself. rachel reeves said something very similar - and migration itself. rachel reeves said something very similar to - and migration itself. rachel reeves| said something very similar to year. she said claims need to be processed faster. she also said, we need to get people out of this country if they had no right to be here. do you agree with that and how would it happen? if agree with that and how would it ha en? , ., , agree with that and how would it ha en? , .,, ., ., happen? if people are fleeing from persecution — happen? if people are fleeing from persecution and _ happen? if people are fleeing from persecution and conflict, _ happen? if people are fleeing from persecution and conflict, we - happen? if people are fleeing from persecution and conflict, we have l persecution and conflict, we have long done our bit alongside other

countries to provide that support. we had to continue to play our part in doing so. refugees need support. those who are not refugees need to be swiftly returned. at the moment neither of those things is happening. those who might have enjoyed torture, immense persecution and trafficking do not get the support they need. also those who are not refugees are not being returned as well. it is the worst of all worlds. that is why the home of the system is badly failing. you have to prevent dangerous boats crossing in the first place and make sure you get proper, fair decisions being made. that is the kind of country we have always been. for examle, country we have always been. for example. last _ country we have always been. for example, last week we heard there were 12,000 arrivals here from albania. what would you do with those people?— albania. what would you do with those people? albania. what would you do with those --eole? . , . , ., those people? clearly that needs to be dealt with _ those people? clearly that needs to be dealt with very _ those people? clearly that needs to be dealt with very quickly. - those people? clearly that needs to be dealt with very quickly. what - those people? clearly that needs to j be dealt with very quickly. what has happened is you need an increase in

albanian organised crime gangs, part of the expansion of criminal gangs which have been organising their smuggling. there has to be a decision—making process and you had to make sure you have taken account of trafficking concerns. the home office should be able to do that very swiftly. if you have people who have arrived from albania or anywhere else, you are not fleeing persecution, who are not refugees, then of course they need to be returned. ., , then of course they need to be returned-— then of course they need to be returned. . , ., _ , returned. that is how the system works. i returned. that is how the system works- i know — returned. that is how the system works. i know you _ returned. that is how the system works. i know you are _ returned. that is how the system works. i know you are asking - returned. that is how the system works. i know you are asking for| works. i know you are asking for suella braverman to come before parliament today. what specifically are you asking for her to address? what are you hoping to hear from are you asking for her to address? what are you hoping to hearfrom her today? b. what are you hoping to hear from her toda ? �* ., what are you hoping to hear from her toda ? . ., ., , . today? a range of things, including what action — today? a range of things, including what action is _ today? a range of things, including what action is being _ today? a range of things, including what action is being taken - today? a range of things, including what action is being taken to - today? a range of things, including what action is being taken to deal. what action is being taken to deal with the illegal overcrowding. we understand the home secretary has refused and ignored advice from the home office and we need to know what action is being taken to deal with the government's ailing policies around channel crossings. we also
7:23 am
need to know about her own security breaches and lapses. how many had there been? what advice on her did there been? what advice on her did the prime minister ignore when he reappointed had just six days after she breached the ministerial code? also serious ethical questions about her description. she said she reported the security lapse very quickly to the cabinet office. looks as though that is not accurate. some important questions. the reason it matters wish he had promised the government of factionalism integrity as well. we had questions about professionalism and failure to meet professionalism and failure to meet professional standards on quality. the home secretary is running away from answering any of these questions because of her own security lapses. national security is too important. home affairs
7:24 am
issues are too important. they cannot keep putting party political interest and deals in front of the future of the country and public safety and national security issues. that is why rishi sunak�*s decision to reappoint suella braverman was so damaging. to reappoint suella braverman was so damauain. ., ~ to reappoint suella braverman was so damauain. ., ,, i. to reappoint suella braverman was so damauain. ., ~ ,, ., ,, to reappoint suella braverman was so damauain. ., ., to reappoint suella braverman was so damauain. ., . . damaging. thank you. thank you. and if the moments _ damaging. thank you. thank you. and if the moments we're _ damaging. thank you. thank you. and if the moments we're going _ damaging. thank you. thank you. and if the moments we're going to - damaging. thank you. thank you. and if the moments we're going to speak. if the moments we're going to speak to mark spencer about the situation in kent and the wider immigration crisis. he is an environment minister. what about rishi sunak and possibly the king going to the cop summit next week? when it comes to giving up smoking, you've probably heard of nicotine patches, but what about nicotine pouches? they're tiny sacks, placed between the lip and the gum, to release nicotine into the body — and there's no law stopping children from buying them. anti—smoking campaigners say more regulation is urgently needed, as graham satchell reports.
7:25 am
a pub in the centre of london, and two friends meet for a drink. blink and you'll miss it. but they're both using something called nicotine pouches. sometimes i've been in the pub and i've had my tub with me and they've asked me why i've brought my hair gel with me. but steadily over the years, the awareness has just grown. more people are aware of it and more people are maybe looking at it as an option of quitting smoking. nicotine patches are how i quit smoking. since using them i've been able to quit smoking entirely, completely cold turkey. and it's been really great, great positive effects on my health as well. the pouches are sold in small tubs, often in fruit, mint or other flavours. they contain nicotine in a range of strengths, but no tobacco. researchers say they're safer than cigarettes because there's no smoke. it's the smoke that kills, not the nicotine. we think if you are a smoker, moving to something else is a good idea.
7:26 am
but if you've never smoked, it's not a good idea to take up using nicotine because it is addictive and it may produce a dependence so that you then have to continue to keep buying these products or other products, which is not a great situation to be in. adverts for nicotine pouches on social media. they're regulated as general products. it means at the moment they can be marketed freely and even sold to children. most nicotine pouch products are owned and made by big tobacco companies. they're very good at marketing products. they've been doing it a very long time. we see them at music festivals, which is prominently at point of sale, partnering with clubs, music venues, which is total tobacco industry playbook of how you sell an addictive product to a young population. new figures from action on smoking and health suggest the number of people using pouches so far is small. in a survey of 13,000 people,
7:27 am
only 4% say they've tried them. but awareness is highest among 18 to 24 year olds, with 45% having heard of them. nicotine pouches are now sold everywhere. supermarkets. newsagents, cornershops. nicotine pouches are a small pouch... nicky small from japan tobacco international says they've spearheaded a self—regulatory framework which limits access to their brand nordic spirit to over 18 years. i think there needs to be appropriate and balanced regulation on nicotine pouches because they are a nicotine product and it should be treated as such, particularly to ensure that those under the age of 18 do not have access to and are not sold nicotine pouches. so you can concentrate on enjoying nordic spirit. nordic spirits admit they give away free samples of their product and have partnered with a number of music festivals but say they're not targeting younger people and would welcome greater regulation. campaigners and health experts say whatever the potential benefits of nicotine pouches as an alternative to smoking,
7:28 am
it is wrong that they can legally be sold to children. we need a regulatory framework that captures all nicotine products, and that means thinking about how these products are being marketed and whether it's appropriate, having an age of sale for a product which is highly addictive. so let's have a proper, proper regulation of nicotine. that means that we have a robust policy for the future. the department of health in england told us they're reviewing the impact of nicotine pouches. campaigners say that's not enough. and a ban on the sale of all nicotine products to under 18 years is needed now. graeme satchell, bbc news. ukraine says russia has launched a wave of missiles at targets across the country this morning. at least two explosions were heard in the capital, kyiv, and officials say missiles also hit the north—eastern city of kharkiv, and zaporizhzhia in the south.

everyone keeping safe. sirens have been going for the last two hours after a number of strikes across the country. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning. two men have died following a shooting in south london. sounds of gunfire were reported in railton road in brixton shortly before eight o'clock last night, and a car was badly damaged. police, including firearms officers, attended along with the london ambulance service and air ambulance. they were unable to save the injured men. 28 households have been told they have to leave their homes at the former walthamstow dogs site by the housing association l&q, because of building works that will take years to complete. residents have been offered £5,000 in compensation, but many are devastated, saying there's no way they can afford to rent privately in the area any more. it's just so shocking,
7:32 am
so unexpected, um... yeah, i think i'm still in a bit of shock over it, to be honest, because it's not what you would expect from who are, in fact, the biggest landlord in waltham forest. we asked l&q about our story and they told us... the number of young londoners on the met�*s gang violence database has been halved to its lowest ever level. it was created after the 2011 london riots, and is used by the met police to identify those at risk of committing, or being a victim of, gang—related violence. just under 2000 people are now on the list, compared to nearly 4,000 at its peak in 2017. if you're about to head out, let's take a look at the tubes now.
7:33 am
now onto the weather with elizabeth rizzini. hello, there. good morning. as we head through this working week, temperatures will start to return back down to the seasonal average. so it will be turning cooler, but it will be wet and windy at times. various atlantic systems moving eastwards. it's quite unsettled. but here across the capital, lots of dry weather, too, in the forecast, including today. and if you're out trick or treating this evening, earlier is going to be better. now for this morning, well, it's a chillier start to the day than we saw over the weekend. there's some spells of brightness and sunshine around first thing. also a few early mist patches. they'll slowly lift and clear. we'll keep the sunny spells for much of the morning, but more cloud into the afternoon, with a small chance of a few isolated showers. but for many of us, i think it will stay largely dry. temperatures are lower certainly than they were over the weekend, and there's quite a brisk and noticeable southerly to south easterly wind blowing too. now as we head through the evening,
7:34 am
well, it's certainly dry at first with some clear spells, but it will start to cloud over. some outbreaks of showery rain through the second half of the night and into tomorrow morning. it's a wet and windy start to tuesday. strong, gusty winds, some rain through tuesday morning. it's looking drier with some sunny spells in the afternoon. that's it. if you want to keep up to date, download he bbc news app. 0therwise we're back in an hour. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. good morning. just after half past seven. there's an awful lot of things to talk to government minister mark spencer about this morning. some of it under his own brief, including about sewage going into the sea at cornwall. he joins us from westminster. can we start

suggested he wasn't going to. what is our suggested he wasn't going to. wist is your understanding? i think we all understand the prime minister is all understand the prime minister is a huge inbox. he has walked into number 10 with lots of challenges, not least of all resolving the challenges in the economy and what is happening with global energy and food prices. his focus at the moment is in dealing with the autumn statement and the government's response to those global challenges. i am sure if his diary allows he would want to go. but at this moment in time we don't yet know if you will have time to do that. but rest assured, there will be serious ministers out there and big hitters, because the uk is very keen to play its part in dealing with the challenges we face in the environment globally. it challenges we face in the environment globally. challenges we face in the environment aloball . , ~' environment globally. it sounds like we miaht environment globally. it sounds like we might be — environment globally. it sounds like we might be getting _ environment globally. it sounds like we might be getting a _ environment globally. it sounds like we might be getting a change - environment globally. it sounds like we might be getting a change on . environment globally. it sounds like | we might be getting a change on this from mr sunak. maybe he will be going after all. you are softening us up for a u—turn? i going after all. you are softening us up for a u-turn?_ us up for a u-turn? i am not in control of— us up for a u-turn? i am not in control of the _ us up for a u-turn? i am not in control of the prime _ us up for a u-turn? i am not in control of the prime minister's| control of the prime minister's diary. 0nly he will know. control of the prime minister's diary. only he will know. would you like to see him _ diary. only he will know. would you like to see him go? _ diary. only he will know. would you like to see him go? well, _ diary. only he will know. would you like to see him go? well, if- diary. only he will know. would you like to see him go? well, if he - diary. only he will know. would you like to see him go? well, if he is i like to see him go? well, if he is time. like to see him go? well, if he is time- only _ like to see him go? well, if he is time- only he — like to see him go? well, if he is time. only he knows _ like to see him go? well, if he is

7:42 am
a challenge to deal with that volume of water within those sewage facilities. actually, we can all help as individuals. if you check where your waterspout goes off your roof, it is very important it goes into a top water drain and not the sewage system. actually, one of the challenges is, as people build an extension on their house or put a conservatory up, they drop the down right into a sewage system and not into a top water drain. so one thing you could do as an individual is check your own downright and see where it goes. i check your own downright and see where it goes-— where it goes. i was going to say, what can you _ where it goes. i was going to say, what can you as — where it goes. i was going to say, what can you as a _ where it goes. i was going to say, what can you as a government - where it goes. i was going to say, what can you as a government to | where it goes. i was going to say, - what can you as a government to do? you have been in government for 12 years. it does not seem to be getting any better. it doesn't seem to have been caused by a massive storm yesterday. what are you doing about it? 50. storm yesterday. what are you doing about it? , , about it? so, it is getting better. we are measuring _ about it? so, it is getting better. we are measuring this _ about it? so, it is getting better. we are measuring this now- about it? so, it is getting better. we are measuring this now so i about it? so, it is getting better. | we are measuring this now so we about it? so, it is getting better. i we are measuring this now so we know when to make improvements. we have
7:43 am
increased the maximum size of the fines we can issue to these water companies. and we are making sure they are investing billions of pounds in trying to solve this challenge. we all acknowledge we have to do it. but it is a huge, huge problem because, you know, there are lots of houses up and down there are lots of houses up and down the country where the sewage needs to be dealt with, but we are making some progress. i acknowledge we need to go a little bit quicker and we are working with water companies to do that. , ., ., ~' are working with water companies to do that. , ., , do that. ok, but look at these pictures- _ do that. ok, but look at these pictures- can _ do that. ok, but look at these pictures. can you _ do that. ok, but look at these pictures. can you really i do that. ok, but look at these pictures. can you really say i do that. ok, but look at these i pictures. can you really say things are getting better? b5 pictures. can you really say things are getting better? $5 i pictures. can you really say things are getting better?— are getting better? as i say, the number of— are getting better? as i say, the number of times _ are getting better? as i say, the number of times this _ are getting better? as i say, the number of times this happens i are getting better? as i say, the number of times this happens is j number of times this happens is reducing. 0ne incident is one too many and that is where we need to get to. but we are reducing the amount of times that that happens. we are now measuring, so we can actually document how we are improving and the number of times thatis improving and the number of times that is reduced. but it is not acceptable. we don't want that to happen. nobody wants that to happen. we are working with the water authorities to try to prevent it in

7:45 am
soke to a christmas turkey this time. we spoke to one turkey farmer over the weekend and he said what the government needs to be thinking about a vaccine programme? that is uuite about a vaccine programme? that is quite difficult _ about a vaccine programme? that is quite difficult to _ about a vaccine programme? that is quite difficult to work _ about a vaccine programme? that is quite difficult to work out _ quite difficult to work out internationally. we are talking to internationally. we are talking to international partners about a vaccine programme. i think unfortunately, my understanding from the chief veterinary officer, is that the vaccines that exist today is not that good at preventing the avian flu that we have today. but long term i can see that is the solution that we need to get you. we saw what science was able to do to us and help us through covid. we need to do the same for avian flu. science and technology is our friend. that is why i am introducing the precision breeding bill in parliament, making the most of agri technology in the united kingdom. mark spencer, thanks forjoining us. quarter to eight. time to talk about sport. john is here. a reinvigorated marcus
7:46 am
rashford, who we should also say happy birthday to you? we should indeed. would there be a better birthday present for marcus rashford after the difficulty has gone through on and off the field, has not been scoring many goals, but scored yesterday for manchester united but that could be so timely with the world cup just three weeks away. a man for the moment. perfect timing. absolutely. what will come? why wait to see. will he be on the plane to qatar? it is world cup watch at the moment. good morning. if marcus rashford is feeling better about his world cup pospects, united fans might be feeling a little more optomistic about the future too. eight games unbeaten in all competitions, and just a point off the top four, after beating west ham 1—0. marcus rashford playing a key part, with the only goal of the game, his seventh of the season and 100th for the club. and he is clearly feeling in a better place on and off the pitch.
7:47 am
yeah, it's a beautifulfeeling. it's something i have been working on. and ifeel like i need to be scoring more goals in them situations, need to be in their areas more often, so i am just working on being in the areas in trying to get on the end of things. marcus rashford clearly in a more positive place at the moment. what of bukayo saka, the arsenal forward? he went off injured yesterday, with the world cup just weeks away. not before he set up the first goal for gabriel martinelli in their 5—0 victory over forest. but then came the injury after being tackled, and he was substituted. his manager said hopefully it's not a bad injury. it was a tricky afternoon, but i think we started really well again. we were in control of the game, and really happy to be back at the top again. and on the reverse side of that —
7:48 am
is there any news on bukayo saka? it did look a worry. yeah, he had to come off. he wasn't comfortable. he had a really bad kick in the first ball and he could not continue, so let's see how he is. no news yet? no. celtic restored their four point gap at the top of the table no guesses needed where this ball�*s going. greg taylor with their second in a three nil win over livingston. there was another defeat for bottom club ross county, as they lost at home to hearts. history was made in the women's super league, as arsenal set a new record of 13 successive wins. they beat west ham 3—1 — frida maanum with arsenal's final goal. elsewhere, tottenham thrashed brighton 8—0, while there were also wins for manchester united, manchester city, chelsea and reading. and talking of setting records, max verstappen has set a new one for the most race wins in a season. his 14th came at the mexico grand prix, having started on pole. lewis hamilton came second, over 15 seconds behind verstappen,
7:49 am
with his red bull teammate sergio perez in third. and with the ongoing financial issues in rugby union, some good news for wasps, who could play again next year after a rescue deal has been found. the club's administrators said they had accepted an offer to buy the club, after being suspended and relegated from the top flight, having entered administration earlier this month. the deal only covers the men's and academy sides. with an offer on the table as well for worcester, promising signs for both clubs. what are clearly, there needs to be some more work being done by those who run the game, the rfu and premiership rugby, to try and find a more sustainable model, a more sustainable approach going forward. they are all wondering who is next. it is interesting. there is a dcms hearing next month where we will
7:50 am
hearing next month where we will hear from some of those key stakeholders. hopefully they will be coming out of that with a plan or a direction on how to avoid what these two clubs have gone through, with such great history in the game. they all lose confidence when this happens. even if one club is ok for now... it is a ripple effect. if these two are struggling, you can rest assured other clubs are going through financial difficulties. and for the fans it is not like you are going to change the club you support, you will always have your club, won't you? club, won't you ? yes. club, won't you? yes. you know how instrumental clubs are for their communities. it involves players, families, everything. a lifelong commitment to that club. if it is not there, it leaves a massive void. thank you. we have got a trick or treat at the door. ten to eight. somebody here with a trick or treat. morning, carol. good morning. this morning it is a mild start to the
7:51 am
day. today will be a mild day generally. but as we head through this week temperatures will return to roughly where they should be at this stage in november. tomorrow being the 1st of november. today it is a bright start. some rain later. some rain coming in across the western isles. fringing into northern ireland courtesy of this weather front. northern ireland courtesy of this weatherfront. as northern ireland courtesy of this weather front. as you northern ireland courtesy of this weatherfront. as you can northern ireland courtesy of this weather front. as you can see from the isobars, it looks like the wind is going to strengthen. a lot of dry weather. some sunshine. a few showers ahead of this band of rain. the rain likely to be heavy across northern ireland. behind it, as it brighten up, the wind is going to be fairly gusty. especially with exposure in the west. by the end of the afternoon we will see some showers in southern areas. temperatures 13 to about 18 or 19 degrees. through this evening and overnight, the first band of showers moves north. a second follows on in hot pursuit. some of these will be

heavy. the rain in the west peters out as it pushes slowly eastwards. and it is going to be windy across the english channel and areas adjacent to it. temperatures tonight, we are looking at another mild night in prospect. nine in stornoway to 14 in st helier. tomorrow we start off with all of this rain. quite quickly it pushes northwards and eastwards, eventually clearing. a lot of dry weather. some showers developing. a lot of those will be in western areas, a few in the south, some of them in the west will prove to be heavy and thundery. temperatures 12 to about 15 degrees. as we head on through the week, from wednesday onwards, we have got an area of low pressure coming in. a transient ridge of high pressure ahead of it. we start off on a largely settled note. as the low pressure comes in, it brings some rain. you can see it moving across northern ireland and then into scotland, england and also wales.
7:53 am
gales with exposure in the west, especially western scotland. temperatures ten to 16 degrees. quite a blustery date generally. as we move into thursday we still have low pressure with us. we can see from the squeeze in the isobars it is going to be pretty windy. this weather from clearing the far south—east, taking its rain with it earlier in the day. there it goes. back into sunshine and showers. the showers merging in the south—west where it will be windiest. longer spells of rain. temperatures ten in the north to 13 as we push down towards the south. we are saying goodbye to the high teens and early 205 that we have seen of late. thank you. if you're feeling a bit sluggish this morning, here's a thought to cheer you up. at least you're not running a marathon before work. that's what gary mckee's about to do. in fact, he's run a marathon every day this year. this is number 304.
7:54 am
and he's planning to keep going for the whole of 2022. before we speak to gary, let's see him in action and hear what motivates him to keep going. there's round about a thousand people diagnosed with cancer every week. there's 350,000 a year. that's a lot of people, that's a lot of reasons to carry on going. if you can help one person you've done a job. it all pushes you out of the door every single day. it enables you to put one foot in front of the other, thinking of other people and the benefits that you've given to them. my dad was actually a cancer survivor. he passed away six years later.
7:55 am
and i wanted to do something in his memory, so i thought back to the day he told me he had cancer. and all the people that have been told that same devastating news. people follow your journey and your story and then theyjump on board. we put out various containers, baskets, buckets of water, some biscuits, some snacks. we found out that gary likes small oranges, so he gets them as well. gary deserves all the support he can get. i everyone is very grateful for what he does for- the local charities. where. —— were now. garyjoins us now from cumbria. morning, gary. you have such a moving motivation for why you do this and what keeps you going. but i have to ask you this question. as we head into winter, getting colder and

is an unusual and odd incident. they were not very serious devices and it ended up at the person who carried out the attack taking their own life. , . . ., out the attack taking their own life. , . ., ., . .,, life. this at a time of increased scrutiny on _ life. this at a time of increased scrutiny on the _ life. this at a time of increased scrutiny on the government's . scrutiny on the government's immigration policy. we scrutiny on the government's immigration policy.— scrutiny on the government's immigration policy. we are in a situation now _ immigration policy. we are in a situation now where _ immigration policy. we are in a situation now where the - immigration policy. we are in a | situation now where the system immigration policy. we are in a - situation now where the system seems to be in a state of perpetual crisis. what should happen when people come off the small boats in dover and initial processing is done, they should go to a centre at manston airport, built to hold about 1600 people. people were supposed to be processed there and move on after about 24 hours, either to hotel accommodation or an immigration detention centre if there were concerns they might abscond. the centre was built for 1600 people and yesterday it was holding 4000 people. 700 of the people were quickly move from here when the
8:06 am
centre was processed but before that there were 3300 people in the centre. that is an almost unsustainable system when the problem seems to be the large numbers of people coming across the channel and the inability of either french or british authorities to stop that happening. also the fact there is not enough on with the combination for people once they had been processed at manston. that seems to be because there was a reluctance to out more hotels a few weeks ago and has created this backlog. the inspector of immigration said he was very concerned when he gave a statement to the house of commons when he said he felt the situation at manston was dangerous. he found a family, a mother with children, who had been in the centre. to two days are sleeping on mats in a marquee. he felt that was absolutely wrong. it left him speechless and he was
8:07 am
really speechless.— left him speechless and he was really speechless. thank you very much. all of this adds to the scrutiny the home secretary is under. suella braverman already facing questions after her previous resignation over the use of her mobile phone for use of top—secret documents. let's speak now to our chief political correspondent, nick eardley, whojoins us from westminster. 0nce once again the home secretary facing questions about her own style and questions about her own style and questions and her brief. that questions about her own style and questions and her brief.— questions and her brief. that is ri . ht. questions and her brief. that is right- we _ questions and her brief. that is right- we are — questions and her brief. that is right. we are going _ questions and her brief. that is right. we are going to - questions and her brief. that is right. we are going to hear- questions and her brief. that is right. we are going to hear a i questions and her brief. that is | right. we are going to hear a lot questions and her brief. that is i right. we are going to hear a lot of pressure today to explain a bit more about what has gone wrong with the asylum system. as you were just discussing with daniel, there is a real concern from the labour party and actually from some conservative mp5 that the government has been stalling on signing up to more hotel rooms to try to deal with the
8:08 am
backlog, to make sure that asylum seekers were not being kept in these inhumane conditions at manston. we are probably going to see some pressure on that in parliament this afternoon, some questions about whether the home secretary could have done more to prevent this overcrowding in the first place. so there is the policy pressure she and there is the policy pressure she and the government are under and then there is the personal pressure she is still under as well, over her e—mail use. rememberthe is still under as well, over her e—mail use. remember the big row last week about her being reappointed as home secretaryjust six days after being effectively sacked for breaking the ministerial code. sensitive information by personal e—mail account. there were questions over the weekend about whether suella braverman's claims to have flagged this up to senior civil servants as soon as possible was completely accurate. we have not heard from the home secretary in
8:09 am
public as to what her account was. we heard from the telegraph newspaper that she does have an account and she is going to set that had some point. just a week into rishi sunak becoming prime minister, there is all less pressure over his decision to make suella braverman home secretary again and all this pressure on her to explain exactly what went on with his e—mail she should not have been sending to other people buy a personal e—mail account. all these questions over whether she should be on the job when she was found to have broken the ministerial code and now there is huge pressure over those policy decisions and whether she has done enough to make sure people coming to the uk to claim asylum had been kept in safe conditions.— in safe conditions. questions to her from all sides _ in safe conditions. questions to her from all sides today _ in safe conditions. questions to her from all sides today in _ in safe conditions. questions to her from all sides today in parliament. | from all sides today in parliament. thank you very much indeed. two men have died following a shooting in south london. police were called to the brixton area just before eight o'clock yesterday.

we had from the foreign minister, who said this easy? fighting we had from the foreign minister, who said this a. the fighting we had from the foreign minister, who heard iis a. the fighting we had from the foreign minister, who heard from :he fighting we had from the foreign minister, who heard from ukrainian) we had from the foreign minister, who heard from ukrainian officials have heard from ukrainian officials since russia started their strategy of attacking civilian sites and civilian infrastructure. as russian forces are now suffering setbacks on the battlefield with ukrainians carrying out this counter offensive, they have decided to target civilian sites in cities away from the front lines. their concern is that the system may not be able to cope. this is a country where temperatures can drop to —15, —20 celsius and president zelensky has been saying a third of the country's electricity infrastructure has been destroyed ahead of winter. there is a lot of concern that this new wave of attacks could have led to more destruction of critical infrastructure across the country. that figure, 44 cruise missiles just this morning is really staggering.
8:14 am
funerals have been taking place of some of the 154 people, who died in a crush in south korea. more than 130 others were injured, as around 100,000 revellers gathered in a popular district of the capital, seoul, to celebrate halloween on saturday night. let's get the latest now from our correspondent, nick marsh, who's at the scene. nick, what more can you tell us about the victims, and are we any closer to finding out what caused this tragedy? they were overwhelmingly young, in their teens and early 205. they have come out for a big night for their halloween celebration on a saturday night. 154 of them did not come back, they lost their lives. i am standing at the heart of the investigation, that is what it is now. this is an alleyway in the district in which 100,000 people descended. it is pretty high
8:15 am
security presence, police presence. ten minutes ago the prime minister walked past us, came over to her past the cordon to show his respect. police gathered here today will ask questions, how did that happen? what could have allowed crash of this scale to have happened and for so many people to have lost their lives? earlier, we saw dozens of detectives, white coated forensic experts taking photos and noting things down on clipboards. after an hour they packed up and went into their cars and off they went for that this is all part of the investigation. there will be queries over things like policing, is that enough emphasis on crowd control? authorities admit they were not expecting so many people to come on halloween for a night out on saturday night. this was the first big halloween night out after coronavirus restrictions on things
8:16 am
like masks and limits had been lifted. queries about that as well. more people will come in and out of the area over these cordons, both to pay tribute but also to actually figure out what went wrong on saturday night.— brazil's right—wing president jair bolsonaro has been narrowly defeated in national elections by the former left—wing leader luiz inacio lula da silva. several world leaders have sent their congratulations — although president bolsonaro has not yet conceded defeat. da silva won by less than 2% of the vote. south west water has been criticised after raw sewage was pictured flowing into the sea on a cornish beach yesterday. this video was filmed near st agnes. south west water says it was a "permitted storm overflow,"

8:18 am
time now for a catch—up with a remarkable young woman who has featured on breakfast before. her name's laura nuttall, she has aggressive brain tumours — and she's determined to squeeze every last drop ofjoy from her life. while also raising awareness. laura and her family are also angry that more funding and research is not going towards developing treatments for a cancer which kills more children and young adults than any other form of the disease. john maguire went to meet her. how do you monitor your health? a thermometer? check your weight? maybe your blood pressure. but i bet you don't use a rubik's cube. laura nuttall does. i kind of used it as a baseline. so every surgery, if i can come out and still do the rubik's cube, i'm all right. yay. laura'sjust had herfourth major brain surgery at salford royal, removing cancerous and highly—aggressive tumours. she was first diagnosed this time
8:19 am
four years ago, just weeks into starting university in london. she'd had headaches but wasn't worried. looking back, they were different sort of headaches. there were headaches that were so bad that i wouldn't be able to see, or they were so bad that i'd kind of lose bits of memory, where i wouldn't be able to tell you what i'd done the previous day, or wouldn't be able to tell you how to get from there to there or do it myself. i'd get lost quite a lot. it was a routine eye test that first raised concerns and, within days, laura underwent her first operation. so the surgery went really well and she recovered and we were very delighted and felt like we'd won a battle. and then we got the prognosis following the analysis of the tumour. and it was the worst news imaginable — that it was a really aggressive brain cancer called glioblastoma and it was already grade 4, because it's always grade 4. and we were told she had probably about a year to live, and if we hadn't had any treatment on from that, it would have been three months. so to go from being in your first term at uni to being told you've got
8:20 am
a year to live in a period of a few weeks was... yeah. ..pretty devastating. given just a year to live, but still here four years later, is testament to the support from her family and friends and the incredible care she's received both here and in germany during frequent visits for treatment, even throughout the pandemic lockdowns. some treatments out there are quite far advanced, and they're doing things out there that they're not doing in the uk. so there's nothing that we won't do to try and find treatment for laura because she's really precious to us. she has good days and bad days. i think we've kind of learned to work with that and accept that that is what our life is now. and grace in that. oh, yeah. and grace as well. we've learned to kind of accept that those things are going to happen, and try and make the most of it?
8:21 am
mm—hm. and make sure that we're all we're doing all right. yeah. so she's determined to make the good days amazing ones, fulfilling ambitions, such as taking control of a royal navy vessel, firing live rounds with greater manchester police, graduating from manchester university in the summer, and even meeting michelle obama. but there are still those bad days. do you ever get angry? yeah. i get angry at the fact that the treatment has not changed for decades. i get angry that my life was normal, and then it wasn't really, really quickly. and the fact that it's notjust me that that happens to. i think that's when i've seen you most angry is when we lose somebody. yeah.
8:22 am
that really hits you hard, doesn't it? yeah. and it makes me question, why am i still here? they've gone. what's so special about me? this is the biggest cancer killer in children and adults under 40. gosh! why? and it gets about 2% of the cancer research fund spend. so itjust seems disproportionate that it kills so many people, so many young people, and yet it's so badly funded. and i think it'sjust because it's hard. but if we do nothing else, we want to raise awareness of that fact. yeah. because things need to change. it needs to be better. it does. we've lost far too many young people. so they're campaigning on all fronts to help others affected by glioblastoma, while also exploring all options for laura. we either go with the radiotherapy and the chemo or we just wait for it to kill her. so it's not in your nature to wait for things, is it? no, it's not.
8:23 am
so we're going to be as proactive as we can be. laura says she has no choice but to fight. and this is the fight of her young life. yeah. john maguire, bbc news, lancashire. what a fighter she is! she is incredible. the singer tom parker, who was in the wanted, died from a brain tumour in march. his widow kelseyjoins us now from kent. and david jenkinson is from the brain tumour charity. morning to you. zaporizhzhia, we last spoke to you and name when things are very recent. how are you and yourfamily? things are very recent. how are you and your family?— and your family? they are taking each day as _ and your family? they are taking each day as it — and your family? they are taking each day as it comes, _ and your family? they are taking each day as it comes, living i and your family? they are taking each day as it comes, living life | each day as it comes, living life just as we can without calm. that is it that is all i can do. we

to understand the disease better and thatis to understand the disease better and that is the first step to being able to develop therapies. there are therapies starting to come through we are hopeful may well make a change. there is a particular one called dc vax which finished phase three early this year, we are waiting for the company to finish peer review to see if it really is what it looks like it could be. we are also starting a trial very shortly on a drug derived from cannabis here in the uk for people with glioblastoma. what cannabis here in the uk for people with glioblastoma.— cannabis here in the uk for people with glioblastoma. what does laura co with glioblastoma. what does laura no to with glioblastoma. what does laura 90 to germany _ with glioblastoma. what does laura go to germany for— with glioblastoma. what does laura go to germany for that _ with glioblastoma. what does laura go to germany for that is _ with glioblastoma. what does laura go to germany for that is not - go to germany for that is not available here?— go to germany for that is not available here? ., , available here? some of the things, the dc vax type _ available here? some of the things, the dc vax type approaches. - available here? some of the things, the dc vax type approaches. there l the dc vax type approaches. there are also in some of these places, and we totally understand why people who are very desperate choose to travel. some of these therapies have not been fully tested. they are

hello, good morning from bbc london, i'm victoria hollins. detectives are investigating a shooting in south london that left two men dead. sounds of gunfire were reported in railton road in brixton shortly before eight o'clock last night, and a car was badly damaged. emergency services were unable to save the injured men. no one has been arrested but there are road closures in place. 28 households have been told they have to leave their homes at the former walthamstow dogs site by the housing association l&q, because of building works that will take years to complete. residents have been offered £5,000 in compensation, but many are devastated, saying there's no way they can afford to rent privately in the area any more. it's just so shocking, so unexpected, um... yeah, i think i'm still in a bit of shock over it, to be honest, because it's not what you would expect from who are,
8:31 am
in fact, the biggest landlord in waltham forest. we asked l&q about our story and they told us... the number of young londoners on the met�*s gang violence database has been halved to its lowest ever level. it was created after the 2011 london riots and is used by the met police to identify those at risk of committing, or being a victim of, gang—related violence. just under 2000 people are now on the list, compared to nearly a,000 at its peak in 2017. if you're about to head out, let's take a look at the tubes now. now onto the weather with elizabeth rizzini. hello, there.

8:36 am
i would do! morning live just after quarter past nine. it's a month since the ggovernment began paying energy support payments. but some of the most vulnerable people still aren't getting the help they need. nina, tell us more. what have you found out? we are heading into the winter. christmas coming up. bill is likely to go up again in the new year. every penny counts. good morning. yes, this is the help we were promised with our energy bills this winter. the government pledged to give every household in england scotland and wales £a00 towards their gas and electricity costs over the next six months. northern ireland has a similar scheme. payments started in october. so by now you should have received your first monthly instalment of £66. for those paying direct debits, this money should be either credited to your account or paid directly into your bank, depending on your supplier. all of this should happen automatically. if you're one of the a.5 million people on a pre—payment meter, you should have been sent a voucher through the post for you to redeem
8:37 am
at a shop or a post office. but we've seen figures which suggest many households are missing out on the cash they're owed. we found about 800,000 vouchers should have been issued to customers across the uk, nine suppliers. roughlyjust over half of those have been redeemed by customers itself. so actually, that represents about £27 million worth of vital support that is in the hands of customers that really need it. but obviously, that also means there are quite a lot of customers who have not redeemed itself. if they haven't received a voucher, please contact your supplier. there's some really good information and advice with organisations like citizens advice. most importantly, keep an eye on the expiry date and make sure you redeem it to make sure you get that vital support this winter. half of that money still to be claimed. that is an important point.
8:38 am
the vouchers are only valid for 90 days, so the advice is to check through your post and make sure you claim in plenty of time. kate got in touch to say her voucher came by e—mail. worth checking them. claire has e—mailed to ask what to do if it hasn't arrived. contact your supplier. whether you pay your bill too. now, this support is only set to last for six months. and that coincides with the end of the government's energy price guarantee, which sets the typical annual household bill at £2,500. remember, if you use more energy, you'll pay more. bills were set to soar to more than £3,500 this winter without that support. and the fear is they'll increase massively once it ends. so, what happens from april? well, at the moment, we've got very few details. the new chancellor has signalled support will be targeted at those most in need. the government is set to outline its new tax and spending plans in the autumn statement on november 17th. and you'll find more information and advice on the bbc news website. just click the �*cost of living' tab
8:39 am
at the top of the page. lots of money saving tips and advice on where you can get more support. places like citizens advice. really important to say with these prepayment metre users, statistically these will be people who struggled in the past to stay on top of their finances. important they take advantage of this money that we are all entitled to. £66 a month goes a long way. a couple of people getting in touch to say they might have thrown the letter away, they thought it was junk mail. if you don't know to look out for it, that is the thing. you can get it, that is the thing. you can get it by e—mail or text. if you haven't, it can be a pain trying to get through to your energy supplier at the moment. but sit tight because it is wanted for that of money. you may recall we broadcast this programme from sunderland a couple of weeks ago, as we kicked off a tour of the uk to see how people are coping with soaring bills. 0ur cost of living
8:40 am
correspondent colletta smith will be hitting the road for the next few months and the first leg of her journey took her down through north yorkshire. let's say hi to coletta now. hi, there. good morning. a week or so ago, i was toasty and warm during breakfast. it's been transformed by the pallion action community group into one of sunderland's warm spaces. hearing how this community group have taken the cost of living crisis into their own hands. it's friendly, it's fun, it's free. so, just get yourselves along. it's been a busy morning, and things are really filling up here now. but i'm hitting the road. thanks very much, debbie, for having me. take care! it's not the end of the road for me, though. in fact, it'sjust about the beginning, because i am heading off on a road trip. over the next few months i'll be travelling right across the uk, hearing more stories like this, of communities and people doing things differently to try and help each other and get themselves
8:41 am
through this cost of living crisis. leaving the cityscape of sunderland behind and winding my way through teesside into north yorkshire. the little market town of richmond, a world away from the hustle and bustle of a big city. but there's plenty of folks here hard at work. have you upped your prices? our prices have gone up, but this was priced quite some time ago. so we have to stick and honour our prices as a gesture of goodwill to people. but yeah, obviously the cost of materials has gone up and the cost of lads�* wages has gone up. so with five kids, are they all still at home? no, just two of them at home. but you're always funding them, aren't you? one, i'm charging a bit more, and two, i'm having to work on a weekend. so, yeah. so you're working, what, six, seven days a week? six days a week, yeah. and then a game of golf, if i can. there's always money for golf! i had an early start
8:42 am
and i've been on the go. so there's only one thing i'm after at this market. one breakfast, no toast, ok? look at this. this is what i'm after. thank you so much. now we're talking. nanette and sheila were the beating heart of this little town, as the cafe's keeping people full and warm. but their budgets are stretched. once, love, i'd buy anything, if i fancied it. but i look at the prices and think, well, ijust can't afford it. does it feel like rents are stretched? things are expensive? yeah. i'm 58, and i know there's no way i could afford to buy a house. no way. my eldest daughter works full time and she'sjust asked me, well, a couple of months ago, for a saturdayjob in here to boost her wages. it's tough, though, like if she's worked all week, then to be coming in on a saturday? yeah. — yeah, she's tired. she's got sunday off, back to work on a monday. are you going to give you the job? will she be any good? yeah, she's worked for me on and off for years.
8:43 am
it's really interesting to hear how people are actually managing inflation. with the price of everything increasing faster than wages, they're working longer and harder to cover their bills. the same's true at my next stop. this pub in grewelthorpe's being stripped back. we're going to double that up into jacket potato toppings. that's a really good idea, actually. so we do that. there's not much wastage with jackets either. paul and debbie are overhauling the menu today. from our point of view, it's affordable for us to buy it, but also, then it'll pass down to the customers. they're reintroducing the evening takeaway service they ran during lockdowns, too. i delivered in the local area in the car. you can't be delivering and serving behind the bar. .do. — no, honestly, idid. i've got to jump up from behind in the kitchen and pour pints. i got in the car, ran down the road, handed them in and ran back up again. a jack of all trades, then. yeah, yeah. because you can't take on extra staff at the moment, then? you wouldn't be able to cover that? we never know what the weekend's going to bring. the worst case scenario, and i've already been looking, is for me to go and work monday
8:44 am
to friday elsewhere. paul would work here in the evenings, thursday and friday, and then i would come back and do the weekends. i'd do friday night and the weekends. and if ijust did that for short term, even the next four or five months at least, we have a guaranteed wage coming in. at the moment we do not have a guaranteed loan coming in. and that's the thing that's most frightening, ithink, isn't it? i mean, we heard recently that the next village along's got a fish and chip shop, and the owner of that is actually doing similarto us, closing monday, tuesday, wednesday. he's already got a job. yeah, he's got a job monday, tuesday, wednesday. so, yeah. he's working elsewhere and just doing the weekends. extra jobs and longer hours are already the reality for so many. no one's giving up hope. they're just doing the things in their power to keep the lights on and fires burning this autumn. coletta smith, bbc news. and as we said earlier, anybody who needs extra help, information or
8:45 am
advice, going to bbc online. we could be coming to a community know you very soon in the weeks ahead. it is halloween. and you have been sending some wonderful pictures of your pumpkins to carol. she has got another one for us now. that's great.— got another one for us now. that's great. got another one for us now. that's areat. , �* ., that's great. isn't it? look at the carvin: that's great. isn't it? look at the carving of — that's great. isn't it? look at the carving of this — that's great. isn't it? look at the carving of this pumpkin. - that's great. isn't it? look at the carving of this pumpkin. pretty . carving of this pumpkin. pretty spectacular. liam sent this in a little bit area. if you are going outside of this morning, it is quite a mild start. a little bit of mist around. it is lifting quite nicely. some of us are seeing blue skies under a ridge of high pressure. but we do have low pressure coming in bringing in some rain. later, we will see some showers coming in across southern areas. a lot of us starting off on a drying out with sunshine and bright spells. one or two showers. the rain comes in across scotland and northern ireland. heavy in northern ireland for a time. gusty winds around this
8:46 am
too. by the end of the afternoon, showers are pouring in across southern coastal counties. temperature range that 113 in the north to 18 in the south. as —— if you are heading out tonight, rain moving steadily northwards. rain in the west are pushing steadily eastwards. the other thing is, windy through the english channel and all areas adjacent to it as well. it is not going to be a particularly cold night. in fact, for most it will be a mild night, although a bit cooler in some sheltered parts of the west. temperatures dipping down to 9 degrees. so, tomorrow, all this rain pushes quickly northwards and eastwards before eventually clearing. then we are back into that easy cocktail of sunshine, bright spells and some showers. most of the showers will be in the west, heavy and thundery. we could see some in southern counties and a few in scotland. temperatures down a touch, 12 to 15 degrees. as we head into
8:47 am
wednesday, we have a transient ridge of high pressure. we start off on a settled node. that is usurped by the next area of low pressure coming our way. we start on a chilly note with some sunshine. comes the rain marching from the west to the east. stronger winds with exposure in the west. and especially in the north—west. the temperature range ten to about 16 degrees. so, as we get into thursday, the front wrapped around that low pressure clears the south—east. we still have low pressure in charge. isobars quite tightly packed. in the north we will have further spells of rain. here it will be quite windy. in the south, rang to clear away from the south—east. in between, a mixture of sunshine and temperatures ten to 13 degrees. we say goodbye to the high teens and low 20s that we have got
8:48 am
used to in the last wee while. for friday mixture of sunshine and showers. later on friday some rain comes into the west. during saturday in the rain moves west to east, followed by a return to sunshine and showers. we have got a pumpkin for you. not the kind you are expecting though. have a look at this. it is your favourite pumpkin in the world. this is a very special pumpkin. pumpkin the dog. she came in here a few months ago. she came in here a few months ago. she was very keen on ourjohn. pumpkin and her owner have organised a special walk this weekend. pumpkin is a paralysed west highland terrier. they went on a charitable walk this weekend with the help of her wheelchair, with other dogs dressed up for halloween. simon spark went along too. this is pumpkin at only ten
8:49 am
weeks old, just getting used to her wheels. but now look at her. stronger and faster than ever. last year money was being raised so that pumpkin could have an operation. but that wasn't possible. it was revealed that pumpkin's spine had been broken due to extreme trauma. something we wasn't aware of and something we weren't prepared for. so the money raised for her operation has started a charity instead. called pumpkin and friends, with pumpkin being the charity ambassador. oh, yes! right on cue. well—trained! pumpkin has developed this very, very cheeky personality. and this is why her videos go viral, because she is full of personality. isn't it? that's enough now! in the 12 months, pumpkin has raised over £50,000. we provide wheelchairs, hydrotherapy, physiotherapy.
8:50 am
the animals that we help are called wheelie good friends. a2 of which are dogs. and then we have a little goat that we've helped. the goat is a five—month—old goat called little legs. and he is gorgeous. her charity has earned her the title of hero dog of the year. but for her final big money raiser, the halloween dog walk in lincoln, she faced a dilemma. she has a choice of two costumes. a spooky spider or a cute pumpkin. and here they are. so what do you think she went as? the spooky spider on the left? or pumpkin as a pumpkin on the right? she wouldn't walk with a hat though, as she hates it. well, the spider was top choice. pumpkin was too obvious, wasn't it? and she took the lead with over 200 dogs in their scary costumes, raising money so other dogs can benefit in the future.
8:51 am
that is a hog words dog! i can't wait to see what pumpkin does at christmas. the easter bonnet next year. john and pumpkin have a special friendship. pumpkin, it is good to see you. happy halloween. just after ten to nine. when it comes to british double acts, our next pair are up there with morecambe and wise, ant and dec, cheese and pickles. michael ball and alfie boe are back with a new album. it's called together in vegas, and it's full of classic covers. have a listen. # how nice a dame you can be # i know the way you treated other guys you've been with # luck be a lady with me.# # i can hear the sound of violins # long before it begins # make me thrill
