this is bbc news — these are the latest headlines in the uk and around the world. conditions at a migrant processing centre in kent are described as wretched as a watchdog calls on the uk home office to "get a grip" of the situation. the immigration minister admits action is needed. what we have to do at manston is ensure that it returns to a well—run, compassionate, humane site which can manage around 1000 to 2000 individuals. at the moment it's got significantly more than that. the british treasury has told the bbc it's inevitable that everyone will need to pay more tax in the years ahead — and warns of "tough decisions". south korea's chief of police admits crowd control in the area of seoul where 156 people died

government must "get a grip" on a migrant processing centre in kent. a report published today says back in july the facility at manston was working "reasonably well," despite a number of risks, but it says since then it has deteriorated significantly, with conditions being described as "wretched". meanwhile, the home secretary has been accused of using inflammatory language about migrants. suella braverman told the commons she wanted to stop what she called an "invasion on our southern coast." she told mps the current asylum system is broken and illegal migration is "out of control." labour accused her of being unfit for office, whilst one refugee charity called the home secretary's comments "indefensible." it follows that criticism of conditions at the manston processing centre. an independent inspection injuly found it was well—equipped and professionally run, but found issues like a lack of beds and no access to fresh air or exercise.

today, the chief inspector of prisons told the bbc the situation had "significantly deteriorated" and said the "home office and contractors need to get a grip." almost 40,000 people have crossed the channel in small boats this year. most people coming by boat claim asylum. 46 people made the crossing yesterday. they should be told if they can stay within six months, but figures show more than 70% of applicants haven't heard back in that time. the immigration minister, roberrtjenrick, says the government is working to make things better. the issue is the sheer number of migrants who have crossed the channel in recent weeks, putting immense pressure on the infrastructure created. we never planned or created infrastructure for 40,000 people to cross the channel in small boats in a single year alone, and it may well be more by the end of 2022. at manston we

had to ensure it returns to a well—run, compassionate, humane site which can manage around 1000 to 2000 individuals. at the moment it had significantly more than that. every day we are working intensely to improve that situation. our home affairs and legal correspondent dominic casciani has more details. once an airfield, now a migrant reception centre, stretched beyond its capacity. manston near the english channel was designed to hold up to 1600 migrants for 24 hours. it's now struggling with almost three times that. a report today from the prisons watchdog raises fresh questions over how the home office has managed arrivals since the summer. manston was opened in february to quickly process migrants arriving over the sea. the report says that injuly it was well equipped and staff were professional. but inspectors concluded challenges remained.

the centre had no beds or fresh air. and now the situation has deteriorated. the chief inspector of prisons says his team will be going back soon. what we're saying to the home office is really, get a grip. because of the concerns that have been raised by a number of sources, we've actually decided that we will return to the site and re—inspect again in the nearfuture. this is quite unusual for us to do. normally we would return in a couple of years or so. but it seems to us that what we're hearing is the deterioration has been so great, that we have no choice but to return. the number of migrants who have crossed the channel so far this year in small boats has almost reached 40,000. pressure on the home secretary, suella braverman, who's been accused of ignoring warnings that manston could be overwhelmed. last night, she defended her record since coming into office. on no occasion have i blocked the procurement of hotels or alternative accommodation. the british people deserve

to know which party is serious about stopping the invasion on our southern coast, and which party is not. government critics say the real problem is not the numbers arriving, but the home office's record in managing them. clearly there is huge pressure and therefore they are behind the events in that sense, because otherwise we would not have that level of overcrowding. there is clearly a great difficulty in actually coping with the level of arrivals. and that is, i'm afraid, yielding all sorts of pretty unacceptable results, particularly within manston. labour says the government can't escape responsibility for a system ministers admit is broken. with the plan to send migrants to rwanda mired in the courts, it's not clear how the home secretary will fix, and quickly, a phenomenon that her critics say is now a matter of political competence. dominic casciani, bbc news.

more now from our chief poltitical correspondent poltitical correspondent nick eardley on how much support there is for the home secretary. the honest answer to that is it depends who you ask. some conservative mps are really nervous about some of the accusations about ms braverman not moving fast enough. at the same time there are some supporters adamant she is the right person for thejob, and i think usoro a pitch to them yesterday when ms braverman was talking about an invasion. controversial language that has been criticised by some, but i think the calculation the home secretary has made is that she would rather be discussing the principles of this policy than some of the specifics about decisions taken under her tenure at the home office.

it is interesting because this morning the immigration minister robertjenrick was asked if he would have used the same term, invasion, and he talked about the need for careful language. listen to what he said on bbc breakfast. i careful language. listen to what he said on bbc breakfast.— said on bbc breakfast. i think it is a hrase said on bbc breakfast. i think it is a phrase expressing _ said on bbc breakfast. i think it is a phrase expressing very - said on bbc breakfast. i think it is a phrase expressing very clearly i said on bbc breakfast. i think it is i a phrase expressing very clearly the concern _ a phrase expressing very clearly the concern millions feel across the countrx — concern millions feel across the country. as a minister in my position— country. as a minister in my position you have to choose your words _ position you have to choose your words carefully. so position you have to choose your words carefully.— position you have to choose your words carefully.- i - position you have to choose your words carefully.- i think i position you have to choose your i words carefully.- i think the words carefully. so no? i think the scale of the _ words carefully. so no? i think the scale of the challenges _ words carefully. so no? i think the scale of the challenges very - scale of the challenges very difficult, we are seeing the asylum system _ difficult, we are seeing the asylum system being overwhelmed by numbers choosing _ system being overwhelmed by numbers choosing to _ system being overwhelmed by numbers choosing to cross the channel. gn choosing to cross the channel. on bbc breakfast this morning, choosing to cross the channel. q�*i bbc breakfast this morning, would you say the word invasion when talking about yourjob and the current situation in dover? i think the word invasion _ current situation in dover? i think the word invasion expresses - current situation in dover? i think the word invasion expresses the l the word invasion expresses the scale _ the word invasion expresses the scale of— the word invasion expresses the scale of the challenge. yes the word invasion expresses the scale of the challenge.— the word invasion expresses the scale of the challenge. i scale of the challenge. yes or no? i had 'ust scale of the challenge. yes or no? i had just used _ scale of the challenge. yes or no? i had just used the _ scale of the challenge. yes or no? i had just used the word. _ scale of the challenge. yes or no? i had just used the word. i _ scale of the challenge. yes or no? i had just used the word. i think - had just used the word. i think you're — had just used the word. i think you're trying to say the home secretary's approach is not right, and i_ secretary's approach is not right,

concrete details, they don't have any yet. concrete details, they don't have an et. . ~ concrete details, they don't have an et. . , let's get more on the report carried out injuly this year about manston. i'm nowjoined by his majesty's chief inspector of prisons, charlie taylor. the initial report carried out in july, there were concerns that things have deteriorated significantly since, but on what evidence argue but, bearing in mind your initial report was carried out injuly? your initial report was carried out in jul ? ~ , . , in july? when we visited in july we raised a number _ in july? when we visited in july we raised a number of _ in july? when we visited in july we raised a number of concerns - in july? when we visited in july we raised a number of concerns and i raised a number of concerns and risks we were worried might materialise, or the jan veleba centre is working reasonably well —— was working reasonably well. but we have since had intelligence from a number of very credible sources, trade unions working on the site,

and large, on the floor, there are rubber mats down and on top of those they are putting blankets to turn them into rudimentary mattresses. it is cramped conditions, there are not proper beds, people are sleeping on benches in some of the marquees and generally agents very uncomfortable, particularly in the tent given over to families —— and generally it is very uncomfortable. you can imagine that the noise levels in that tent, i would suspect, are rather high. how many people are sleeping in those marquees? i how many people are sleeping in those marquees?— how many people are sleeping in those marquees? how many people are sleeping in those mar: uees? ., ., ., those marquees? i would not have the exact number— those marquees? i would not have the exact number but _ those marquees? i would not have the exact number butjudging _ those marquees? i would not have the exact number butjudging on _ those marquees? i would not have the exact number butjudging on my - exact number butjudging on my assumption, 60 or so. bud exact number butjudging on my assumption, 60 or so.— assumption, 60 or so. and the facilities. _ assumption, 60 or so. and the facilities, showers, _ assumption, 60 or so. and the facilities, showers, the - assumption, 60 or so. and the j facilities, showers, the toilets, are they equipped for this number of people? are they equipped for this number of --eole? ~ , , . are they equipped for this number of ”eole?. ,, . people? when we inspected we saw there was reasonable _ people? when we inspected we saw there was reasonable provision - people? when we inspected we saw there was reasonable provision in i there was reasonable provision in terms of sanitation, but we saw some

they are sleeping cheek byjowl, that disease could spread quickly. you are used to inspecting prisons, how does manston compared to the other bad conditions you have experienced in your career? if people are only spending a few hours there, it is adequate, that is what we said in the summer. but if i went to a prison undiscovered people did not have mattresses, could not make telephone calls, did not have access to fresh air, i would be enormously concerned, the fact this is happening for women, children, families and other migrants is a great concern to us.— families and other migrants is a great concern to us. what does this sa about great concern to us. what does this say about the _ great concern to us. what does this say about the british _ great concern to us. what does this say about the british government's| say about the british government's handling of something like this? you are right to defend the prisoner institutions, to give and quality—of—life that any individual

group institute for fiscal studies. hejoins us now. a rough road ahead is a bit of an understatement? i is a bit of an understatement? i think it could be. clearly the economic outlook for the uk has unfortunately deteriorated quite a lot since the spring, the 0br's last such forecasts were pulled together before russia invaded ukraine. clearly things look different and not positively. the government is left with quite a difficult challenge to plug the gap in its fiscal plans, we could look at a combination of spending cuts and tax rises, but it's unfortunately a feature of the uk becoming a poorer country as a result of these local shops. we import lots of energy and food that we are poorer, it will be a painful adjustment.— food that we are poorer, it will be a painful adjustment. a painful ad'ustment. jeremy hunt has spoken— a painful adjustment. jeremy hunt has spoken about _ a painful adjustment. jeremy hunt has spoken about tax _ a painful adjustment. jeremy hunt has spoken about tax rises - a painful adjustment. jeremy hunt has spoken about tax rises and - has spoken about tax rises and spending cuts being split 50—50. they all locked in terms of

manifesto commitments on tax increases but is this the right approach at looking at this? there is a political _ approach at looking at this? there is a politicaljudgment _ approach at looking at this? there is a politicaljudgment about - approach at looking at this? ii—ii” is a politicaljudgment about the appropriate mix of tax rises and all spending cuts. we are hearing reports that it might be 50—50. when george osborne was conducting fiscal tightening he went for more than three quarters spending cuts. that was in the austerity years. a new judgment reflects the recognition that after a decade of squeezing public services, giving public sector workers below inflation pay rises, it is much harder to make savings to public spending than perhaps a decade ago so tax rises might have to do more of the work. the old cliche is efficiency cuts or efficiency savings, but how much is there left to be efficient about? talk of efficiency savings, i think, ignores that in the face of higher inflation, higherfood and energy

bills, higher pay awards and departments expect, they are already having to make quite substantial efficiency savings just tuesday within their budgets, asking for further savings on top of that, you have to ask a reasonable and possible but is —— to stay within their budgets. the treasury recognises tax rises will have to be part of the answer because seeking to cut tens of billions of pounds from public services after a decade of squeeze is not possible without hitting the public services we rely on. , ., ., on. something else that so often seems to come _ on. something else that so often seems to come up _ on. something else that so often seems to come up its _ on. something else that so often seems to come up its fiscal - on. something else that so often | seems to come up its fiscal drag, not changing the tax threshold, but realistically how much money would patch raise all safe?— patch raise all safe? fiscal drag is cuite an patch raise all safe? fiscal drag is quite an ugly _ patch raise all safe? fiscal drag is quite an ugly phrase, _ patch raise all safe? fiscal drag is quite an ugly phrase, where - patch raise all safe? fiscal drag is quite an ugly phrase, where we i patch raise all safe? fiscal drag is - quite an ugly phrase, where we would otherwise have increased tax

thresholds, it drags more people into paying tax and into higher rates. those income tax thresholds are already frozen for four years, when rishi sunak was prime minister he had that policy, it might raise about £5 billion, but that is a big sum of money, when we are hearing talk of a gap in government fiscal plans of 30, 40 or £50 billion, 5 billion will help that it will not go all the way. we billion will help that it will not go all the way-— billion will help that it will not coallthewa .~ ., ., , go all the way. we have pay demands, information on _ go all the way. we have pay demands, information on the _ go all the way. we have pay demands, information on the earth, _ go all the way. we have pay demands, information on the earth, interest - information on the earth, interest rates on the up, where does this peek? rates on the up, where does this eek? ., , , ., rates on the up, where does this eek? .,, , ., rates on the up, where does this eek? , ., ., , peek? hopefully at some point early next ear, peek? hopefully at some point early next year. that _ peek? hopefully at some point early next year, that is _ peek? hopefully at some point early next year, that is what _ peek? hopefully at some point early next year, that is what most - next year, that is what most forecasters expect when there are signs of gas prices coming down, hopefully food prices will follow

too. we expect the peak in inflation next year. the problem is this is almost a permanent hit as to how well off we are as a country, energy prices may for a bit but if they stay back from where they were before covert, it will mean squeezing other things, it might mean a lack of good economic news over the next couple of years. ben zaranko, thank _ over the next couple of years. ben zaranko, thank you very much indeed. south korea's police chief has admitted his force failed halloween revellers in central seoul on saturday and had not responded adequately to multiple phone calls, warning of a potential accident. yoon hee—keun said he felt a heavy responsibility for the tragedy in which 156 people are now known to have died. here's what he had to say.

translation: we found out - that there were lots of emergency calls before the accident about the seriousness of the place. the calls were about emergencies, telling the danger and urgency of the situation, that a large crowd had gathered before the accident occurred. however, we think the police response on the scene to these emergency calls was inadequate. 0ur correspondent nick marsh is in itaewon district in seoul, where the accident took place. this alleyway has been left practically untouched on saturday night, less than three days ago. it was packed full of young people enjoying a saturday halloween night out. in few hours later, more than 150 would lose their lives. today we

heard the first apologies from the authorities, the chief of police in south korea saying he bears a heavy responsibility for that tragic loss of life. and a picture now of profound police failure is beginning to emerge. why weren't there enough police officers deployed, and those police officers deployed, and those police forces —— mikrut those police officers here were clearly not engaging in crowd control. nobody was telling people not to go down this narrow alleyway just was telling people not to go down this narrow alleywayjust on the right. this is where most of the people would lose their lives on saturday. i spoke to an irish student called patrick, originally from dublin coming here searching for a semester, and he said the crowds were dangerously packed on saturday night —— from dublin, studying here for a semester. it saturday night -- from dublin, studying here for a semester. it was like that for — studying here for a semester. it was like that for hours, _ studying here for a semester. it was like that for hours, it _ studying here for a semester. it was like that for hours, it was _ studying here for a semester. it was like that for hours, it was hideous. l like that for hours, it was hideous. this street — like that for hours, it was hideous. this street is — like that for hours, it was hideous. this street is tiny, anybody looking at it should — this street is tiny, anybody looking at it should have seen it was an accident —

for corruption charges, is the most likely to win enough votes to form a right wing coalition together with ultra religious and ultra nationals parties. tom bateman told us the latest from jerusalem. already this morning with the polls open a few others, the prime minister yair lapid has cast its vote and been photographed doing so, he said it is a choice between the future and the past and i think the last part of refers to benjamin netanyahu who was prime minister for 12 years of course until last year when he was ousted by an ideological read diverse coalition which has been unable to survive. mr netanyahu on social media urged his own supporters to get out and vote because this is very likely to be yet another deadlocked election, the fifth in four years. the reason for thatis

fifth in four years. the reason for that is israelis are deeply divided over mr netanyahu himself. he is a polarising force and in all these elections the two blocks, led by him and his opponents, have been unable to decisively get a government that can last any more than a year in this particular case. so we are back again but what is different about this election is that inside that right—wing and religious bloc headed by benjamin netanyahu we have seen a surge of support in the polls for an extremist far right alliance of parties. if they were to succeed in the sense that if mr netanyahu is able to just scrape a victory we would see the ultranationalist parties potentially being given cabinet seats, which has worried the current coalition. they say israelis should go out and vote, in their view, to defeat that, because they say these people will, in their words, burn down the country. mr netanyahu has scrape at a site and has made a bid for his brand of

politics. joining us now is tal schneider, a political diplomatic correspondent for the times of israel. people are saying that in yahoo might be able to scrape through, but what would that mean for this shape and structure of israeli politics and structure of israeli politics and jurisprudence? and structure of israeli politics andjurisprudence? —— people and structure of israeli politics and jurisprudence? —— people are saying that benjamin netanyahu might be able to scrape through.— be able to scrape through. people are sa in: be able to scrape through. people are saying that — be able to scrape through. people are saying that partners _ be able to scrape through. people are saying that partners for- be able to scrape through. people are saying that partners for this i are saying that partners for this next cabinet coming more from israel's 0rthodox communities, conservative communities and ultra—right, including people that have a history... you just mentioned one of those parties, it is headed by two figures, one of whom was actually convicted eight times for inciting against arabs and so on. we

don't really think he will be able to execute its programmes but the government will be a far right ultranationalist government, something that is scary to the liberal and secular communities of this country. liberal and secular communities of this country-— this country. when you look at the historical traditional _ this country. when you look at the historical traditional parties - this country. when you look at the historical traditional parties like i historical traditional parties like labour, for example, nowhere really to be seen in terms of the modern electoral process?— to be seen in terms of the modern electoral process? labour are on the verie electoral process? labour are on the verae of electoral process? labour are on the verge of extinction, _ electoral process? labour are on the verge of extinction, they _ electoral process? labour are on the verge of extinction, they are - verge of extinction, they are fighting to cross the threshold. since we have had so many elections in recent years, we had seen them before, they have barely crossed the threshold and the centrist parties, the prime minister yair lapid has the prime minister yair lapid has the bigger centrist left party and his work at the moment is actually

to block netanyahu from retaining the end prime minister. he does not have a compilation of his own, the only thing he can get as may be blocking netanyahu from becoming the next prime minister and with that may be the political process would produce something different, like the difference government we had in recent years. you the difference government we had in recent years-— recent years. you are having almost as many leaders _ recent years. you are having almost as many leaders as _ recent years. you are having almost as many leaders as the _ recent years. you are having almost as many leaders as the uk, - recent years. you are having almost as many leaders as the uk, perhaps not quite. brute as many leaders as the uk, perhaps not cuite. ~ ., ., ., , not quite. we have had a little bit more than — not quite. we have had a little bit more than what _ not quite. we have had a little bit more than what you _ not quite. we have had a little bit more than what you are _ not quite. we have had a little bit more than what you are suffering | more than what you are suffering from the last few years. i more than what you are suffering from the last few years.- more than what you are suffering from the last few years. i agree, i was being — from the last few years. i agree, i was being facetious. _ from the last few years. i agree, i was being facetious. in _ from the last few years. i agree, i was being facetious. in terms - from the last few years. i agree, i was being facetious. in terms of. from the last few years. i agree, i i was being facetious. in terms of the changes to the legal system potentially, if netanyahu did this, they are talking about dismantling some legal processes and structures which might remove the corruption charges against him. it's not another factor peoples decisions? 0bviously netanyahu was under great charges, undergoing a criminal trial

as we speak for bribery and fraud and some of his party members from other parties that support him too, they suggest the other charges of fraud and breach of trust should be cancelled as a final —— felony and just cancel the trials. so this is one suggestion, another suggestion forjudicial reform is to get supreme courtjudges nominated by the government. this is a total collapse of the separation of power in israel's democracy, it is volatile already, it is less than 75 years old and they want to had supreme courtjudges being nominated by the government, meaning there will be no independence any more.

great steaks in the selection, some scary stuff but on the other hand it still feels like a big deadlock. i don't think have a result. what don't think have a result. what about turnout? _ voting started few hours ago. it is nice as we speak, a little higher than last time. it is early morning, so it is a good indication. we have a huge problem of the arab orders turn out which is traditionally lower of the country —— macro borders. 20% of the country is arab and their voting trends are lower. 0bviously, and their voting trends are lower. obviously, if they will vote in higher numbers, this will make or break this election. if they keep on not voting and not participating, then benjamin netanyahu will probably be the next pro—minister. thank you very much forjoining us.

the oil giant bp has reported a big rise in profits betweenjuly and september this year. they've made 8.2 billion dollars — that's 7.1 billion pounds — for the period. that's more than double the profit over the same three months last year. the company will pay a windfall tax of almost £700 million this year. bp is not the only company to have announced big profits recently, as our business correspondent caroline davies explained. last week we heard about shall also making enormous profits for their quarter. that was their second—highest ever of £9.5 billion. we have heard from multiple other oil giants, talking about the amount of profit they are making at the moment so it is enormous. 0ne of profit they are making at the moment so it is enormous. one of the other things we heard from bp today is, unlike shell, who said they were not expecting to be paying any of the windfall tax in the uk during the windfall tax in the uk during the course of this year, bp is saying that it is expecting to be paying that. about $800 million for

the seven months of this has been in force in 2022, which is about £695 million. despite the fact it is saying it will be paying this windfall tax, they are still expecting a backlash from politicians who say there needs to be an extension in the windfall tax, that more money needs to be paid for by these companies that are making such profits, higher than they would normally be making. and that extension could well come, couldn't it, at the end of this month now? yes, and we know that we have heard from the chancellor and from the prime minister, talking about the fact that people need to be paying more tax and that would be the expectation that people would take more of that burden. how that would relate to oil companies and gas companies we don't know yet, we won't hear until november the 17th. the head of the uk's national grid has warned that homes and businesses could face energy blackouts this winter. john pettigrew says the uk does have sufficient energy supplies, but short outages are a possibility.

the company has announced a £50 million fund today to support those most in need to pay their energy bills for the next two winters. our business editor simonjack reports. national grid owns the company whose primaryjob is keeping the lights and heating on, by ensuring there's sufficient energy supply to meet demand, even in the depths of winter. while the company's boss insists that remains the most likely outcome in the next few months, the chief executive, john pettigrew, said that an interruption of normal seasonal imports from europe could see mothballed coal—fired power stations fired up again, consumers and businesses paid to cut demand at peak times, and short blackouts as a last resort. there could be circumstances in which people are asked to reduce their demand. it will be over the peak of the day, which is between sort of four and 7pm. it's not going to be the whole country, but that is one of the scenarios that we've looked at. rolling switch—offs across the country? across the country.

mr pettigrew also said that for the uk to hit government targets of a 400% increase in offshore wind power by 2030, big changes in planning and regulation would be required to speedily build the hundreds of miles of new cables and overhead pylons needed onshore, to get the energy from off the east coast of the uk, where most of it will be produced, to the south of england, where most of it is used. to give you a sense of it, over the next eight years, onshore, we will need to build about seven times as much infrastructure in the next seven or eight years than we built in the last 32. but if we're going to achieve these really ambitious targets, then we are going to need changes to regulation in the uk, to the planning process, but also we need to work with local communities. the good news is that so far the winter has been extremely mild. the bad news is that electricity can't yet be effectively stored and saved for periods of extreme cold, which consumers — and companies like national grid — will be hoping can be avoided. simon jack, bbc news.

it's nowjust one week until the us midterm elections — with domestic energy prices very much on the political agenda. president biden has threatened oil companies with higher taxes unless they invest their record profits in lowering prices at the pump. mr biden and his democratic party are hoping to cling on to their narrow majorities in congress. here's more from our correspondent katty kay. if you have been watching tv in america this year, you won't have been able to escape things like this. you just might need that semiautomatic. republican ads featuring guns. or maybe a little smith & wesson 38. explosions. and more guns. and from democrats, you will have seen a lot of this. the supreme court has taken away a woman's most fundamental freedom, control of her own body. same election cycle, very different focus.

republicans believe that putting guns in ads shows that they support the second amendment. but more than that, it proves their conservative values. my father taught me how to handle my first gun. i taught my son 0liver had to do the same. i have been shooting and hunting my whole life. and look at how this candidate ties gun ownership to individual freedom. and i approve this message because without gun rights, before long, you have no rights. while there is no real chance of americans losing their gun rights anytime soon, suggesting they might can motivate republicans to go to the polls. and when it comes to democrats trying motivate democrats... from this day forward, august the 25th, women all across texas are no longer free... ..to make decisions about our own body. the number one focus of democratic

ads has been abortion. specifically, highlighting the idea that more elected republicans means less abortion access. we should be putting pregnant women at ease, not putting their lives at risk. so, republicans play on the fear of losing gun rights, and the freedoms that come with those rights. democrats hone in on a different fear and the loss of another right. i have a warrant for your arrest. arrest for what? unlawful termination of a pregnancy. ads also reflect the news, so with inflation rising, republicans have targeted the economy and immigration. does he cut taxes? now, he is fighting to finish it, securing our border. _ in the senate, he will tackle out—of—control inflation, - unleashing our economy. with this gem thrown in for good measure... did we mention, he owns a gun range? between them, the parties have spent

more than $6 billion. yes, billion dollars, on tv ads. that is a tonne of money, given how few voters are actually open to persuasion. was it worth it? we will find out. i'm katty kay and i approve this message. a brazilian government minister has said jair bolsonaro will address the nation today in his first comments since he lost the presidential election to lula da silva. there are growing concerns mr bolsonaro will contest the outcome of the election after losing by the narrowest margin in brazilian political history. lorry drivers who support him are protesting the defeat by blocking roads and calling for a military coup. a man has been charged with attempting to kidnap the us house speaker, nancy pelosi. david depape is also accused of attacking her husband, paul pelosi, with a hammer after breaking into their home in california last week.

the usjustice department says the 42—year—old was carrying tape, rope and other materials to hold a hostage. what's in a name? well, if that name is hirokazu tanaka, quite a lot. injapan, a new world record has been set for the most number of people with the same first and second name meeting up. nearly 200 hirokazu tanakas got together in tokyo, as the bbc�*s tim allman explains. let's put it this way. introductions should not be much of a problem. hirokazu tanaka, meet hirokazu tanaka and so on. dozens of them of all ages, gathered together in unique hirokazu ta na ka style. translation: the members came from as far afield as hokkaido - in the north to 0kinowa the south. i feel as if we are all related

and it does not feel like we met for the first time. this is not the first time a whole host of namesakes have met up to break a record. in 2005, 164 martha stewarts were brought together by the famous american businesswoman of the same name. drop the surname and the potential is endless. 2,325 ivans congregated in bosnia and herzegovina in 2017. not so many hirokazu tanakas, but there were enough. translation: people kept speaking to him kindly and i was grateful for that. my sonjust happens to have the right name but i am happy he could join in. after a rigourous headcount, the record was set at 178. laying down a challenge to thejohn smiths of the world. now they will go their separate ways but if they do want to get in touch, remembering each other�*s names should be child's play.

hirokazu tanaka... sorry. tim allman, bbc news. the government has revealed details of a previously secret programme to defend ukraine against russian cyber attacks. experts have been helping kyiv defend against what has been described as a "daily onslaught" on government and infrastructure computer systems. the foreign minister, leo doherty, explained more about the british support. since february we have been working in partnership with our ukrainian allies to help them bolster their cyber defences. we have brought some of our expertise to bear on helping them defend from what has been a daily onslaught of cyber attack from russia since the start of the invasion. they have done a heroicjob at defending, particularly their critical national infrastructure and it has been an honour to bring to bear some of our expertise to assist them. what are we providing in real terms?

advice, resources and hardware. those three things combined has allowed them to do an extremely good job at defending from cyber attack. they have a long—standing and deep expertise in this field, since 2014 they have faced a considerable number of attacks. we have a really good body of expertise we have built up through our own centres of cyber excellence, so bringing those things together we have helped them particularly with their emergency response, it is about ensuring they can plug the gaps where they find them. some of the leading expertise is actually ukrainian, i should say, they have some solutions themselves but we have allowed them to multiply that and to build the breadth and depth of force required,

because the pace of the challenge has been very considerable, they have faced daily attack since february so it is about upskilling and ensuring they have enough capacity to meet this threat. let's speak to emily taylor, who's ceo of the cyber intelligence company 0xford information labs and editor of chatham house's journal of cyber policy. it is fairto it is fair to say this is an area where a lot of us thought they would be much more russian involvement. perhaps there has but itjust has not been publicised. what perhaps there has but it 'ust has not been publicised._ not been publicised. what is the situation? _ not been publicised. what is the situation? well, _ not been publicised. what is the situation? well, you _ not been publicised. what is the situation? well, you are - not been publicised. what is the situation? well, you are right i not been publicised. what is the i situation? well, you are right that i think when the invasion occurred, there was a lot of predictions that we would see a huge amount of hybrid activity, in other words cyber attacks on critical infrastructure and so on. to some extent, the

reality has confounded those expectations. however, ithink reality has confounded those expectations. however, i think there has been a lot going on under the surface, and the announcement today really shows this strategy on the part of the uk of declassified intelligence and bringing out a lot of things that perhaps would not have been spoken about, and would not have been known in the past. i think that that helps to counter the kremlin disinformation machine in some ways, and perhaps rebuild confidence in the institution. so what has been going on? well, i think we know from the last nearly a decade that ukraine has been something of a test bed, both for the hard cyber attacks, such as attacks on power stations in 2015 and 2016, in december of both years, which left hundreds of thousands without power. but i think also, we often gloss over in the west the role of disinformation as part of

the overall cyber strategy, and that is, of course, an area of huge strength and prowess for russia. ukraine has been on the receiving end of that, as have lots of former soviet states for many years. i think that there is a level of resilience and huge capability on the part of ukraine in both of those areas. �* ., ., , ., ., areas. but how does the uk and other countries help — areas. but how does the uk and other countries help with _ areas. but how does the uk and other countries help with protecting - areas. but how does the uk and other countries help with protecting the - countries help with protecting the public from that disinformation when so much of it is prevalent across social media platforms now? i'm thinking, for example, about the pipeline explosions, and what russia has said about that. how do you prepare the world for dealing with something like that? a lot of people will say, there is no smoke without fire. i will say, there is no smoke without fire. ~ will say, there is no smoke without fire. ,, , ., ., ., fire. i think you are right, and the announcement _ fire. i think you are right, and the announcement today _ fire. i think you are right, and the announcement today is _ fire. i think you are right, and the announcement today is very - fire. i think you are right, and the| announcement today is very much about that sort of harder protection, you know, using private contractors to help with that sort

of resilience of critical infrastructure. but you are right, the role of disinformation is this drip drip undermining confidence, serving societal division and that has become so much part of the landscape. i think we in the west, in the uk, the us, we have become really heightened aware of it since 2016. but, of course, for ukraine and otherformer soviet 2016. but, of course, for ukraine and other former soviet states, 2016. but, of course, for ukraine and otherformer soviet states, it has been part of the backdrop, and so there is perhaps a level of resilience among the population to disinformation, orat resilience among the population to disinformation, or at least a recognition that it is going on, that these are the tactics, but it can be incredibly hard to resist because it is normally that there is a grain of something, or it is playing on existing divisions and setting people against each other, and that creates a weakening of what would otherwise be a unified response. in would otherwise be a unified response-— would otherwise be a unified resonse. , ., ., response. in terms of the hard material things _ response. in terms of the hard material things that _ response. in terms of the hard material things that can - response. in terms of the hard material things that can be - response. in terms of the hard i material things that can be done, how much of a cat and mouse game is

it in terms of not giving away actually the source of bretts and reach that we might have. there was a famous story that perhaps somebody could switch off the lights in the kremlin and in putting �*s off as if they set their minds to it, but that would actually show how much the west and other countries have penetrated —— the office of putin. how much there is debate around that? ., ., . ., ., that? the announcement today and the strate: of that? the announcement today and the strategy of declassified _ strategy of declassified intelligence is actually quite a bold move. for exactly those reasons. you know, any sort of talking about capability or the work that you are doing does, to a hostile actor, it displays and it informs about capability, and so there is a natural reticence to share very much. how much of a cat and mouse game is it? it is a constant cat and mouse game. i think when you hear the public statements

of, say, lindy cameron, the head of the national cyber security centre, or the recent speech of sirjeremy fleming, it's very much about fostering resilience. you know, not trying to go through life without any breach, but being able to recover from any breach, but being able to recoverfrom breaches any breach, but being able to recover from breaches very quickly, get back on your feet, get back operational. that is really a much more realistic goal when it comes to defending against cyber attacks. fascinating talking to you. thank ou. fascinating talking to you. thank you- thank _ fascinating talking to you. thank you. thank you. _ collins dictionary has named "permacrisis" as its word of the year — meaning an "extended period of instability and insecurity". the publisher said they chose it because it succinctly summed up how truly awful 2022 had been for many people. other terms on this year's list include "partygate" and "quiet quitting", the act of performing only your basic duties at work. the etymologist, susie dent, explained the evolution of the word �*permacrisis'.

so collins' word of the year is permacrisis. i think most of us will probably understand it. "unprecedented" has run out of steam. "annus horribilis" is limited to just one year. most of us feel we have descended into something really horrible for some time now, so permacrisis seems entirely fitting. permacrisis, right. what is the definition of permacrisis? it is a sort of ongoing feeling that we are in an extended period of, i don't know, instability, insecurity, anxiety, because it is one catastrophic event after another. it's something that describes an unrelenting situation, ithink, which, you know, i think feel is probably quite apt for 2022. it's a movie lover's dream — more than 1500 rare tv and film

props are going under the hammer in the uk with a combined value of around £11 million. the iconic memorabilia up for grabs includes christopher reeve's superman suit, darth vader's gloves and david bowie's spaceman costume. tim muffett went to have a look. superman theme. excuse me. that's a bad outfit. and it could be yours, if you've got a few hundred thousand pounds to spare. this is christopher reeve's complete outfit from superman. there you go. bye — bye. and what's so special about it is the fact that it is a complete costume. we've often seen tunics and capes and belts come up on their own, but to have the complete set together is really very special. this has an auction estimate of £250,000 to £500,000. movie and music memorabilia is big business, and this auction is getting many collectors excited. a pair of gloves, but

not just any gloves. no. these are probably from one of the greatest movie villains of all time. these are darth vader's gloves from star wars — a new hope. the death star plans are not in the main computer. where are those transmissions you intercepted? _ what have you done with those plans? how do you know these are the actual gloves that david prowse wore? so we're looking at things like the leather detailing and the way that it's stitched, and also the way that it folds here as well. for star wars — a new hope, actually, they had a very, very small budget. and in fact, there was only one complete darth vader costume that was made for the entire film. as a pair of gloves, it's going to stand somewhere in the region of £150,000 to £250,000. there are more than 1,500 items up for grabs — from blade runner to batman. from this bible featured in the shawshank redemption. estimated price between £100,000 and £150,000, to this costume worn by david bowie in the video for his song, ashes to ashes.

# ashes to ashes...# where do you get these items from? we're working with production companies, but we're also working with crew members who were able to acquire these artifacts at end of production sales. i mean, going back 20, 30 years ago, really, there was no thought about there being an intrinsic value for these artifacts. it's thought that collectively these items could fetch between £9 million and £11 million, maybe even more. butjust like any auction, the key thing is the provenance, knowing that each item really is what it claims to be. this is paul mccartney's jacket that he wore on the morecambe and wise show in 1964. 0k, fellas, that's great. you look marvellous. you ready? there were fourjackets made for the band members, the beatles. and then ernie wise wore one as well. # we were strolling along.# anything associated with the beatles is in its own category when it

comes to music. absolutely. and especially when you can see something like this, which is notjust worn on stage for that moment. it was televised and it has an auction estimate of £25,000 to £35,000. hello, base 1. i'm over the island now. nostalgic purchases are a lot of what we're dealing with. this is from a classicjames bond film, you only live twice, 1967. there's nothing here but volcanoes. understood. carry on. so there are actually two helmets that were made for the film. one was used and worn by ken wallace, who was the aviator, who flew the practical little nellie. this one was used specifically and worn by sean connery for all the close up work in the studio. this has an auction estimate of £60,000 to £100,000. collectors across the world are gearing up for thursday when it'll be time for lights, camera, auction. you will also need quite a lot of

cash as well. that is it from me and the team. goodbye. hello. temperatures have been unseasonably mild for a wee while now, and what you will find is, as we go through the next few days, looking at this temperature anomaly chart, we lose those above average temperatures and see a return to the white across many parts of the uk, indicating temperatures are going to be lower than they have been, but closer to where they should be. we have had rain this morning, continuing to push towards the northern isles. behind it, a lot of showers coming in and some will be heavy and thundery, and still gusty winds as represented by the black circles. particular gusty in areas adjacent to the english channel coast line, and temperatures 11-16 c,

coast line, and temperatures 11—16 c, north to south. some showers across northern england today. this evening and overnight, we start off with showers but many will fade, except for in the west. some clear skies, it will still be windy at times across the english channel, and it will be a cooler night than last night. in some sheltered glens, damages could slip away to a four or five celsius. you can already see the next system waiting in the wings. this is a potent area of low pressure coming our way and it will bring heavy rain and squally winds. the head of it, there is a transient ridge of high pressure. that means to start with there will be some sunshine, but then the rain comes in from the west. remembersome then the rain comes in from the west. remember some of this will be heavy with squally winds, potentially disruptive and gusting up potentially disruptive and gusting up to 60 mouse per hour in the west, even inland in the east could reach 40 mph. it will take its time before it eventually makes it down towards the south—east. temperatures 10— 16 celsius. 0vernight on wednesday the rain does make it down to the

south—east and we will have a packet showers coming across the north and some will be heavy, and west and some will be heavy, potentially thundery. 0n potentially thunderya gm. thursday. slow—moving rain reaches the thisislowjmoving rain reaches the f f-.- follow south—east. brighter skies follow but still a lot of showers, and although the wind will moderate through the course of the day, it strengthen later across the will strengthen later across the south—west with temperatures 10-13 c, south—west with temperatures 10—13 c, so that is more where we should be at this stage in november. into friday, sunshine and showers, many of them in the north and west and they continue into an unsettled weekend.

this is bbc news. the headlines at 11am: conditions at a migrant processing centre in kent are described as "wretched", as a watchdog calls on the home office to "get a grip" of the situation. the fact that this is happening for women, children, families and other migrants is a great concern for us. the immigration minister admits action is needed. what we have to do at manston is in that it returns to a well—run, compassionate, humane site which can manage around 1000 to 2000 individuals. at the moment it has a significantly more than that. the treasury has told the bbc it's inevitable that everyone will need

to pay more tax in the years ahead, and warns of "tough decisions". the indian prime minister, narendra modi, is to visit morbi in the western state of gujarat, where more than 140 people died after a bridge collapsed on sunday. 0il giant bp announces profits of £7 billion between july and september, almost triple the figure for the same period last year. and from the westminsterjungle to the real one, a new role of the former health secretary matt hancock. he isjoining i'm a celebrity. the chief inspector of prisons for england and wales says the government must "get a grip" on a migrant processing centre in kent.

a report published today says back in july the facility at manston was working "reasonably well", despite a number of risks, but it says since then it has deteriorated significantly, with conditions being described as "wretched". meanwhile, the home secretary has been accused of using inflammatory language about migrants. suella braverman told the commons she wanted to stop what she called an "invasion on our southern coast". she told mps the current asylum system is broken and illegal migration is "out of control". labour accused her of being unfit for office, whilst one refugee charity called the home secretary's comments "indefensible". it follows criticism of conditions at the manston processing centre. an independent inspection injuly found it was well—equipped and professionally run, but found issues like a lack of beds and no access to fresh air or exercise. today, the chief inspector of prisons told the bbc the situation had "significantly deteriorated" and said

the "home office and contractors need to get a grip". almost 40,000 people have crossed the channel in small boats this year. most people coming by boat claim asylum. they should be told if they can stay within six months, but figures show more than 70% of applicants haven't heard back in that time. the immigration minister, robertjenrick, says the government is working to make things better. the issue is the sheer number of migrants who have crossed the channel in recent weeks and that is putting immense pressure on the infrastructure that was created. we never planned or created infrastructure for 40,000 people to cross the channel in small boats in a single year alone and it may well be more before the end of 2022. what we have to do at manston is ensure that it returns to a well—run, compassionate, humane site which can manage around 1000 to 2000 individuals. at the moment it has got

significantly more than that. we are working intensely now everyday to reduce that population. our home affairs and legal correspondent dominic casciani has the latest. once an airfield, now a migrant reception centre, stretched beyond its capacity. manston near the english channel was designed to hold up to 1600 migrants for 24 hours. it's now struggling with almost three times that. a report today from the prisons watchdog raises fresh questions over how the home office has managed arrivals since the summer. manston was opened in february to quickly process migrants arriving over the sea. the report says that injuly it was well equipped and staff were professional. but inspectors concluded challenges remained. the centre had no beds or fresh air. and now the situation has deteriorated. the chief inspector of prisons says his team will be going back soon. what we're saying to the home office

is really, get a grip. because of the concerns that have been raised by a number of sources, we've actually decided that we will return to the site and re—inspect again in the nearfuture. this is quite unusual for us to do. normally we would return in a couple of years or so. but it seems to us that what we're hearing is the deterioration has been so great, that we have no choice but to return. the number of migrants who have crossed the channel so far this year in small boats has almost reached 40,000. pressure on the home secretary, suella braverman, who's been accused of ignoring warnings that manston could be overwhelmed. last night, she defended her record since coming into office. on no occasion have i blocked the procurement of hotels or alternative accommodation. the british people deserve to know which party is serious about stopping the invasion on our southern coast,

and which party is not. government critics say the real problem is not the numbers arriving, but the home office's record in managing them. clearly there is huge pressure and therefore they are behind the events in that sense, because otherwise we would not have that level of overcrowding. there is clearly a great difficulty in actually coping with the level of arrivals. and that is, i'm afraid, yielding all sorts of pretty unacceptable results, particularly within manston. labour says the government can't escape responsibility for a system ministers admit is broken. with the plan to send migrants to rwanda mired in the courts, it's not clear how the home secretary will fix, and quickly, a phenomenon that her critics say is now a matter of political competence. dominic casciani, bbc news.

not only from opposition parties, but some rumblings in her own party as well and it all comes down to whether she has acted swiftly enough and effectively enough to head off at the problems at the manston processing centre in kent, which as we have seen and have been hearing, are significant. so i do not think there will be any letup in the scrutiny on suella braverman as this problem continues to play out and the garment is urged to get a grip of it. ,, , the garment is urged to get a grip of it, ,, , ., ., “ the garment is urged to get a grip of it. ,, , ., ., ,, ., ., the garment is urged to get a grip ofit. ,, , ., .,, , of it. she is looking at two sides of it. she is looking at two sides of it, first _ of it. she is looking at two sides of it, first at _ of it. she is looking at two sides of it, first at the _ of it. she is looking at two sides of it, first at the origin - of it. she is looking at two sides of it, first at the origin of- of it. she is looking at two sides of it, first at the origin of the i of it, first at the origin of the problem and how migrants are managed as they come to the uk and it feels she wants to focus on the fact they are arriving in the first place. yes, and the government wants to do all it can to stop the problem at source, as you suggest, and that means stopping people crossing the channel in the first place. it is and could be hard, if not impossible, to do that. 0ver and could be hard, if not impossible, to do that. over the last few years, this problem has got

consistent, steadily worse, the government has tried working with the french, all sorts of ideas floated, including police patrols of uk offices in france and vice versa, and practically, logistically, all but impossible to stop this happening. so the government is flailing around from attempting to find various different solutions to it and in the meantime, the numbers coming continue to far outweigh the facilities that are there to process them safely and effectively. band facilities that are there to process them safely and effectively. and of course the context _ them safely and effectively. and of course the context of _ them safely and effectively. and of course the context of the _ them safely and effectively. and of i course the context of the government does not have a lot of money to throw around and we are hearing about a large financial black hole and right now we do not know how that black hole will be filled. ida. that black hole will be filled. no, we will know _ that black hole will be filled. no, we will know on _ that black hole will be filled. iifr, we will know on the 17th of november when the chancellor will give his autumn budget, but barely a day goes by at the moment without the treasury attempting to prepare people for what they see as some

very painful decisions and announcements to come. we are hearing last night again from the treasury about this eye watering a black hole in the public finances, the rough road that there is going to be in the weeks and months ahead and the enormity of the challenge the government faces. what we do not know exactly yet is what the government will do in order to rebalance the books, but you can guarantee i think there will be some tax rises and there will be a summer spending cuts, quite significant ones to government department budgets, which will see the real world impact of on our public services. �* ., world impact of on our public services-— world impact of on our public services. . ., ., , , services. and no doubt it will be hoini services. and no doubt it will be hoping all _ services. and no doubt it will be hoping all along _ services. and no doubt it will be hoping all along that _ services. and no doubt it will be hoping all along that the - services. and no doubt it will be i hoping all along that the backdrop will improve and inflation will of its own volition come down? yes. will improve and inflation will of its own volition come down? yes, and that is art its own volition come down? yes, and that is part of — its own volition come down? yes, and that is part of the _ its own volition come down? yes, and that is part of the thinking _ its own volition come down? yes, and that is part of the thinking i _ its own volition come down? yes, and that is part of the thinking i think- that is part of the thinking i think behind the delay in the budget, which was of course do to have happened yesterday, but rishi sunak when taking office agreed with the chancellor it should be put back a couple of weeks and at least part of the hope there is economic conditions improve perhaps slightly, the cost of the borrowing for the

government has come down a bit, fall in the wholesale price of gas, and those things could help give them a bit of wriggle room, but even with that, the warnings are there very, very clearly that things are going to be difficult and there are going to be difficult and there are going to be difficult and there are going to be decisions taken which will make things financially harder for plenty of people. make things financially harder for plenty of people-— plenty of people. thank you very much indeed. _ plenty of people. thank you very much indeed. there _ plenty of people. thank you very much indeed. there has - plenty of people. thank you very much indeed. there has been i plenty of people. thank you very much indeed. there has been a l plenty of people. thank you very - much indeed. there has been a great deal of toing and froing over this issue of migrant processing and fairly tough words spoken. we heard briefly from him in that report, but the chief inspector of prisons has been speaking to the bbc news channel in the last hour. he explained more about what inspectors found when they visited manston processing centre injuly. generally, the centre was working reasonably well, but we have since then had intelligence from a number of very credible sources, from trade unions are working on the site, from the local mp, from other people who

are involved with the site, third sector organisations, and this makes us think we ought to be going as soon as possible to go and re—inspect. it is a real concern. when we visited in the summer, there were people in a fairly cramped conditions in marquees which were provided for the migrants, but they were only spending short periods of time there and were being moved on fairly quickly, but it is extremely concerning to hear that both the numbers have increased but also the amount of time that people are spending on the site has increased as well. manston is a short—term holding facility which means that people should be going in the comic being quickly processed and then moving on, but what we are hearing is that is no longer the case. they are sleeping by and large on the floor we are hearing, the rubber mats and on top of that they are putting blankets to turn them into mattresses, but it is cramped

conditions. there are not proper beds, people are sleeping on benches in some of the marquees and generally it is very uncomfortable, and particularly in the tent that is given over to families where as you can imagine the noise levels during the night i suspect are extremely high. joining me now is deputy director of the migration 0bservatory at the university of oxford. he can tell us more about the level of migration that is going on. the government is trying to make the case that it is exceptionally and perhaps unexpectedly high, would you agree? it perhaps unexpectedly high, would you airee? . , perhaps unexpectedly high, would you airee? . ., , perhaps unexpectedly high, would you airee? ., , . agree? it has certainly increased substantially _ agree? it has certainly increased substantially over _ agree? it has certainly increased substantially over the _ agree? it has certainly increased substantially over the last - agree? it has certainly increased substantially over the last little l substantially over the last little while, but i think we probably need to contextualise this. the key issue here really is the processing and the uk, when we compare ourselves to france, we have actually seen fewer asylum applications in recent times than france, but france has a

considerably smaller backlog. france in fact had more than double the number of asylum applications last year and has been processing things more effectively, so i think it is important to recognise that while certainly there has been an increase in arrivals, that is not necessarily the only reason why we are in this situation. ~ , ., , ., ~' situation. why do you think the backloi situation. why do you think the backlog in _ situation. why do you think the backlog in processing _ situation. why do you think the backlog in processing has - situation. why do you think the - backlog in processing has occurred? that is a very difficult question. at the end of the day, this is an issue about home office resourcing and processing time. one of the things we have seen is in 2019, the government abandoned its service standard of processing asylum applications within six months, said the objective there was 8% will be processed within six months and that was abandoned at the beginning of 2019 and subsequently we have seen a huge increase in processing times so we have gone from around 87% down to

6%. the issue is the processing and the investment in this and some has we have focused on issues other than the backlog, possibly to the detriment of the uk's asylum system. what are the implications of having a backlog, in terms of the situation that they are trying to manage at places like for example manston? the thin places like for example manston? iie: thing you places like for example manston? tie: thing you have places like for example manston? ii9 thing you have to places like for example manston? i““i9: thing you have to understand places like for example manston? i““i9 thing you have to understand it here, we have been raising concerns about this increasing backlog for some time, if you have 100,000 people, more than that, his claims have not been processed, those people cannotjoin the labour market if they are going to be granted asylum, they are costly for the uk

government. this issue with hotel accommodation costing 7 million a day or thereabouts is because we have this backlog and it means places like manston do not necessarily have a they can move people into, effectively because there is overcrowding in the system already. —— places they can move people into. the migrants themselves obviously are in a very challenging situation while they are waiting for their asylum to be processed, they cannot work, contribute to the economy, and that the uk economy, uk government, has to provide accommodation and some very basic income to these people while they are waiting to be processed. let’s are waiting to be processed. let's 'ust to are waiting to be processed. let's just go back _ are waiting to be processed. let's just go back to — are waiting to be processed. let's just go back to the _ are waiting to be processed. let's just go back to the beginning of the year, earlierthis just go back to the beginning of the year, earlier this year, and they plan to send asylum seekers to rwanda. particularly in the light of what has happened, did that look

thresholds over time, they have already been frozen but that basically means more people over time move in to paying income tax, so that probably raises a few billion a year by the middle of the decade, but they will probably look at other things as well. find decade, but they will probably look at other things as well.— at other things as well. and the fallout from _ at other things as well. and the fallout from austerity _ at other things as well. and the fallout from austerity on - at other things as well. and the fallout from austerity on a - at other things as well. and the | fallout from austerity on a lower paid people from society was disproportionately higher, is there a risk that could also be the case for tax rises? it a risk that could also be the case for tax rises?— for tax rises? it depends exactly how ou for tax rises? it depends exactly how you do _ for tax rises? it depends exactly how you do the _ for tax rises? it depends exactly how you do the tax _ for tax rises? it depends exactly how you do the tax rises. - for tax rises? it depends exactly how you do the tax rises. the i how you do the tax rises. the measures that could be well targeted on people who are most able to pay them, for example if you closed the loopholes around inheritance taxes, you could get if you billion pounds a year the ligament that way and that would only really be paid by very wealthy families, so it does not necessarily need to be the case that it not necessarily need to be the case thatitis not necessarily need to be the case that it is just the poorest family and i think the context is important, we are in a cost of living crisis, highest inflation in 40 years, people on low incomes are the ones who are most struggling because actually putting food on the table or turning on the heating is

to support those most in need to pay their energy bills for the next two winters. our business editor simonjack reports. national grid owns the company whose primaryjob is keeping the lights and heating on, by ensuring there's sufficient energy supply to meet demand, even in the depths of winter. while the company's boss insists that remains the most likely outcome in the next few months, the chief executive, john pettigrew, said that an interruption of normal seasonal imports from europe could see mothballed coal—fired power stations fired up again, consumers and businesses paid to cut demand at peak times, and short blackouts as a last resort. there could be circumstances in which people are asked to reduce their demand. it will be over the peak of the day, which is between sort of four and 7pm. it's not going to be the whole country, but that is one of the scenarios that we've looked at. rolling switch—offs across the country? across the country. mr pettigrew also said that for the uk to hit government targets of a 400% increase in offshore wind power by 2030, big changes

in planning and regulation would be required to speedily build the hundreds of miles of new cables and overhead pylons needed onshore, to get the energy from off the east coast of the uk, where most of it will be produced, to the south of england, where most of it is used. to give you a sense of it, over the next eight years, onshore, we will need to build about seven times as much infrastructure in the next seven or eight years than we built in the last 32. but if we're going to achieve these really ambitious targets, then we are going to need changes to regulation in the uk, to the planning process, but also we need to work with local communities. the good news is that so far the winter has been extremely mild. the bad news is that electricity can't yet be effectively stored and saved for periods of extreme cold, which consumers — and companies like national grid — will be hoping can be avoided. simon jack, bbc news. meanwhile, work is continuing across ukraine to restore power and water supplies which were cut off by russian attacks

over the last few days. president zelensky has repeated calls to expel russia from the united nations and g20 group of leading economies following the missile strikes. 0ur correspondent hugo bachega is in the ukrainian capital kyiv and has the latest. ukrainian authorities said 18 facilities in ten different regions of the country were hit yesterday by russia's missiles and drones and this morning, the authorities here in the kyiv region are saying that 20,000 people remain without power. in kharkiv, the country's second largest city, 50,000 people are still without power and the energy supplier has announced restrictions today in several regions, including here in the capital. rolling blackouts have been announced, so millions of people are still feeling the impact of those attacks. ukrainians have been saying this is how russia is responding to its

recent military defeats on the battlefield, by attacking critical infrastructure, electricity infrastructure, electricity infrastructure, in cities across the country, including in places away from the front lines. this is happening ahead of winter, so there is a lot of concern here that the system may not be able to cope amid rising demand as winter approaches. this is a country where temperatures can drop to —15, —20 celsius. last night, president zelensky again repeated his call for russia to be expeued repeated his call for russia to be expelled from the g20, the group of leading economies, also from the united nations security council, for what he has described as russia's terrorist tactics. now it's time for a look at the weather with carol kirkwood. hello again. it's been a windy start to the day across southern areas in particular, but the wind will pick up in the north as we go through the course of the afternoon. this morning's rain continuing to move away from the far

north—east, but we have a packet of showers across southern areas in particular, and some of those will be heavy and thundery and on and off through the course of the day. and still those gusty winds, especially through the english channel. northern england seeing the fewest of the showers today. now, as we head on through the evening and overnight, some of the showers will fade, we'll hang onto some in the west. there'll be some clear skies and still gusty winds at times through the english channel and areas adjacent to it. a cooler night than last night. these are our overnight lows. we could see as low as four degrees in some sheltered glens. but a sunny start to the day tomorrow in eastern areas before this rain comes in from the west. that's likely to be heavy with squally winds around it gusting 60 miles an hour in the west with exposure, even 40 miles an hour in the east inland. but it won't get to the south—east till later. hello, this is bbc news. the headlines... conditions at a migrant

sunday. 0il giant bp announces profits of £7 billion betweenjuly and september, almost triple the figure for the same period last year. sport now, and a full round up from the bbc sport centre. good morning. in the last few moments, england have beaten new zealand in the men's t20 cricket world cup by 20 runs in brisbane, keeping their hopes of a semifinal place alive. england were batting first and they knew a wind would put them back into the top two and boost their chances of a place in the last four. jos buttler with an entertaining winnings, making 73 off 47 balls, as england finished on 179-6. so, 180 the off 47 balls, as england finished on 179—6. so, 180 the target for new zealand.

new zealand fell short, reaching 159 foot six, meaning england secure that 21 win, and improving their chances of a semifinal spot. sri lanka have kept their world cup hopes alive with a six wicket win over afghanistan in brisbane. sri lanka restricted afghanistan to 144 for 8. dhananjaya de silva's unbeaten 66 then steered sri lanka to their target with nine balls to spare at the gabba. afghanistan are now out — their two previous games were wash outs. sri lanka can only qualify for the semi—finals if they beat england, and afghanistan beat australia. the women's rugby league world cup gets underway this afternoon, as hosts england look to stop the dominace of australia and new zealand who've won every edition of the competition so far. england captain emily rudge will lead the side out at headingley in the fourth world cup of her career. despite not being a professional

side, they'll look to capitalise of what has been a great year so far for women's sport. just incredible. seeing the lionesses and what they achieved is massively inspirational for us, and hopefully if we can replicate that, how incredible that would be for the sport and for the women's game and hopefully we can inspire young girls to want to be part of rugby league and to want to play the sport. that is definitely something that is on the back of our minds, that we are also trying to achieve. so yes, it is really exciting. wales are out of the men's tournament, they needed to win by 22 points to qualify for the quarter finals but failed to score against papua new guinea. it was a pretty miserable evening in doncaster as they went down 36—0, this last try summing up their night, a failure to deal with the kick, as papua new guinea ran in six tries to progress — they take on england in the last eight. now, how much do you miss a manager when they're not

on the sidelines? totte n ha m tottenham say they are fully prepared. spurs will be without their managerfor a match prepared. spurs will be without their manager for a match they must not lose if they are to reach the knockout stages of the competition. everyone is well aware, the staff is well prepared, and we all know that we need to help each other. for me, it's not a difficult situation. it's maybe a different situation, but, you know, we know what to do. we are well aware of the situation. jurgen klopp's also in the spotlight. his side a 15 point behind the leaders in the premier league but have qualified for the knockout stages of the champions league already. they host italian league leaders napoli later. everything will be judged about me now as well, which is absolutely fine.

but when people look at me, they're going to say, "he looks tired or whatever," that's normal as well. i'm not... i'm not. i cannot give that excuse. so much for me. it's not. myjob is not only being here in the moment when the sun is shining and somebody gives us a trophy. myjob is as well here to be there when we have to go through a really rough period. so... and i will do that. wimbledon and us open finalist 0ns jabeur has lost on her wta finals debut. the tunisian second seed was beaten 3—6, 7—6, 7—5 by belarusian seventh seed aryna sabalenka in fort worth. the finals, which are being held in the texan city this year, also sees the top eight teams of 2022 play in doubles. that's all the sport for now. more now on the home secretary,

suella braverman, facing growing criticism for the way people are treated when they arrive on the kent coast illegally. but what do the the local residents think about it? graham satchell has been to meet some of them. the white cliffs of dover have always been more than just a landmark. they are a symbol of home — the first sight of england for returning travellers. today they are also the first thing migrants see, as they arrive in small boats. almost 40,000 have reached the coast so far this year. 0n dover high street, there is a mix of anger and frustration. a lot of people have just had enough. i feel sorry for the people that are being exploited. but, hey, you know, that's costing about £5 million a day in hotel rooms. so, something needs to be done. do you feel any sympathy for the people who are making their way over in small boats? some of them, yeah, because they've they've left war—torn countries, but places like albania are quite safe. and why don't they seek refuge in the first country they come to?

to me, it is getting out of hand. they say they're coming in because they're refugees, but a lot of them are not. they've come from a safe country. now, my understanding, if you come from a safe country, you're not a refugee. you're a migrant, you know. a working man's club in dover, where the world is put to rights over a pint and a game of pool. the view here at the heart of the crisis is uncompromising. i think the majority of the people don't want it. no, they don't want them here. definitely don't want them here. send them back. if they can't do that, i don't know what the solution is, really. behind the bar, chantelle is worried that in the clamour for something to be done, genuine refugees will be overlooked. they're very desperate people, trying to get a better life. and i feel like if that's the lengths that they need to go through to try and get that, then i'm fine. i'd do the same for my family.

and the way i look at it is all the surrounding countries that surround syria and other places, there's millions — millions of refugees and migrants there. that's nothing compared to the small numbers that are coming here. for people in dover, this crisis is very close to home. just over a week ago, two migrant boats landed on this beach under the white cliffs. one of the occupants, an albanian teenager, ended up in sue doyle's front room. it's left her traumatised. i don't want to be here any more. it's just... i was terrified. you don't know. you don't know what they're going to do. and it is scary. back on the high street, there is a clear understanding that there are no easy answers. i haven't got a solution. what's got to happen?

despite all the hot air that's going on in various countries, in various governments, there's no uniformed approach. and until you get a uniformed approach, you're not going to get a solution. people in dover have been living with this crisis for years. yesterday, the home secretary herself described the system as broken and out of control. graham satchell, bbc news, dover. south korea's police chief has admitted his force failed halloween revellers in central seoul on saturday and had not responded adequately to multiple phone calls, warning of a potential accident. yoon hee—keun said he felt a heavy responsibility for the tragedy in which 156 people are now known to have died. here's what he had to say. translation: we found out - that there were lots of emergency calls before the accident

about the seriousness of the place. the calls were about emergencies, telling the danger and urgency of the situation, that a large crowd had gathered before the accident occurred. however, we think the police response on the scene to these emergency calls was inadequate. 0ur correspondent nick marsh is in itaewon district in seoul where the accident took place. this alleyway has been left practically untouched since saturday night, less than three days ago. it was packed full of young people enjoying a saturday halloween night out. in just a few hours, more than 150 would lose their lives. today, we heard the first apologies from the authorities, the chief of police in south korea saying he bears a heavy responsibility for that tragic loss of life. and a picture now of profound police failure is beginning to emerge.

why weren't there enough police officers deployed? and those police officers here were clearly not engaging in crowd control. nobody was telling people not to go down this narrow alleywayjust on the right. this is where most of the people would lose their lives on saturday. i spoke to an irish student called patrick, originally from dublin, here studying for a semester, and he said the crowds were dangerously packed on saturday night. it was like this for hours, it was hideous. this street is tiny, anybody looking at it should have seen it was an accident waiting to happen. it really felt like it was so preventable, this shouldn't have happened. one of the most shocking details

confirmed to the bbc today is that the emergency services actually received calls warning of dangerous overcrowding several hours before the fatal crash —— crush occurred, but it is not just the police under scrutiny, we have seen planning documents by the local council in preparation for this halloween saturday night out, before the fatal crush occurred. they make no reference to crowd control at all. they talk about garbage collection, covid and social distancing, but nothing about crowd control. matt hancock has lost the conservative whip after announcing he is heading to the australian jungle to take part in this year �*s series of i'm a celebrity get me out of here. he isjoining the likes of boy george and chris miles on the reality series which starts this weekend. harry cole is political

gets more salacious than that! it does rather, but also i think there is a question of notjust salacious stories, of which there are many in the book, but also an explanation of how something goes wrong so quickly, and actually a direct line that can be drawn between the choices she made do not tell the whole truth about the scale of her ambition and how that lead to the catastrophic results we saw in the markets in the days and weeks after her mini budget. harry cole, thank you. thank you. polls have opened in the fifth general election in israel in four years. according to recent polls, the likud party headed by former pm netanyahu, who is currently on trial for corruption charges, is the most likely to win enough votes to form a right wing coalition together with ultra religious and ultra nationals parties. tom bateman told us the latest from jerusalem. already this morning with the polls open a few hours, the prime minister yair lapid has

cast his vote and been photographed doing so, he said it is a choice between the future and the past, and i think the last part of that refers to benjamin netanyahu who was prime minister for 12 years of course until last year when he was ousted by an ideologically diverse coalition which has been unable to survive. mr netanyahu on social media urged his own supporters to get out and vote because this is very likely to be yet another deadlocked election, the fifth in four years. the reason for that is israelis are deeply divided over mr neta nyahu himself. he is a polarising force and in all these elections the two blocks, led by him and his opponents, have been unable to decisively get a government that can last any more than a year in this particular case. so we are back again, but what is different about this election is that inside that right—wing and religious bloc headed by benjamin netanyahu we have seen

a surge of support in the polls for an extremist far right alliance of parties. if they were to succeed in the sense that if mr netanyahu is able to just scrape a victory we would see the ultranationalist parties potentially being given cabinet seats, which has worried the current coalition. they say israelis should go out and vote, in their view, to defeat that, because they say these people will, in their words, burn down the country. mr netanyahu sweeps that aside and has made a bid for his brand of politics. let's bring you back to the uk now and a biography, and you may recall that prior to her resignation on wednesday the 19th, we saw a vote in the house of commons and there was a great deal of focus on fracking, but also a great deal of discussion

around the code of conduct and standards of behaviour that had happened between mps during that time. for example, chris bryant complained there was a clear bullying prior to the vote and during the vote. now, the speaker of the house, so lindsay hoyle, has said "there is no evidence of any bullying or undue influence being put on conservative mps by government ministers during that vote on fracking". the uk �*s treasury is warning of inevitable tax rises as the new prime minister rishi sunak and his chancellorjeremy hunt try to fill a black hole in public finances. earlier we spoke to a senior research economist at the leading economic research group, institute for fiscal —— fiscal studies and he told us that as a country we will be poorer than we were, and this will be a painful adjustment for many. clearly, the economic outlook for the uk has unfortunately deteriorated quite a lot since the

spring. the 0br last set of forecasts were pulled together before russia invaded ukraine and now things look different, and not in a positive way. the government is left with quite a difficult challenge to plug the left in its fiscal plan. we could be looking at a combination of spending cuts and tax rises, and that is unfortunately a feature of the uk becoming a poorer country as a result of these global shocks, as a country that imports lots of energy and food we are poorer than we were, and this will be a painful adjustment. collins dictionary has named "permacrisis" as its word of the year — meaning an "extended period of instability and insecurity". the publisher said they chose it because it succinctly summed up how truly awful 2022 had been for many people. the etymologist, susie dent, explained the evolution of the word "permacrisis". so collins' word of the year is permacrisis. i think most of us will probably understand it.

"unprecedented" has run out of steam. "annus horribilis" is limited to just one year. most of us feel we have descended into something really horrible for some time now, so permacrisis seems entirely fitting. permacrisis, right. what is the definition of permacrisis? it is a sort of ongoing feeling that we are in an extended period of, i don't know, instability, insecurity, anxiety, because it is one catastrophic event after another. it's something that describes an unrelenting situation, ithink, which, you know, i think feels probably quite apt for 2022. let's get more from samantha eardley, from collins dictionary. samantha, why particularly this word? i mean, it feels like two words put together to me. 50. word? i mean, it feels like two words put together to me. so, we chose this — words put together to me. so, we chose this word _

across many parts of the uk, indicating temperatures are going to be lower than they have been, but closer to where they should be. we have had rain this morning, continuing to push towards the northern isles. behind it, a lot of showers coming in and some will be heavy and thundery, and still gusty winds as represented by the black circles. particular gusty in areas adjacent to the english channel coast line, and temperatures 11—16 c, north to south. some showers across northern england today. this evening and overnight, we start off with showers but many will fade, except for in the west. some clear skies, it will still be windy at times across the english channel, and it will be a cooler night than last night. in some sheltered glens, temperatures could slip away to four or five celsius. you can already see the next system waiting in the wings. this is a potent area of low pressure coming our way and it will bring heavy rain and squally winds. ahead of it, there is a transient ridge of high pressure.

that means to start with there will be some sunshine, but then the rain comes in from the west. remember some of this will be heavy with squally winds, potentially disruptive and gusting up to 60mph in the west, even inland in the east could reach 40 mph. it will take its time before it eventually makes it down towards the south—east. temperatures 10—16 celsius. 0vernight on wednesday the rain does make it down to the south—east and we will have a packet of showers coming across the north and west and some will be heavy, potentially thundery. on thursday, this slow—moving rain reaches the south—east. brighter skies follow but still a lot of showers, and although the wind will moderate through the course of the day, it will strengthen later across the south—west with temperatures 10—13 c, so that is more where we should be at this stage in november. into friday, sunshine and showers, many of them in the north and west and they continue into an unsettled weekend.

this is bbc news. the headlines: conditions at a migrant processing centre in kent are described as "wretched", as a watchdog calls on the home office to "get a grip" of the situation. the fact that this is happening forwomen, children, families and other migrants is a great concern for us. what we have to do at manston is ensure that it returns to a well—run, compassionate, humane site which can manage around 1000 to 2000 individuals. at the moment it has significantly more than that. and from the westminster jungle to the real one — former health secretary matt hancock has the tory whip suspended as hejoins i'm a celebrity. the treasury has told the bbc it's

inevitable that everyone will need to pay more tax in the years ahead, and warns of "tough decisions". 0il giant bp announces profits of £7 billion between july and september, almost triple the figure for the same period last year. that is launched into the air, that is a catch on in the deep. bud is a catch on in the deep. and encland is a catch on in the deep. and england beat— is a catch on in the deep. and england beat new _ is a catch on in the deep. and england beat new zealand by 20 runs in the t20 world cup match in brisbane. the chief inspector of prisons for england and wales says the government must "get a grip" on a migrant processing centre in kent. a report published today says back

in july the facility at manston was working "reasonably well", despite a number of risks, but it says since then it has deteriorated significantly, with conditions being described as "wretched". meanwhile, the home secretary has been accused of using inflammatory language about migrants. suella braverman told the commons she wanted to stop what she called an "invasion on our southern coast". she told mps the current asylum system is broken and illegal migration is "out of control". labour accused her of being unfit for office, whilst one refugee charity called the home secretary's comments "indefensible". it follows criticism of conditions at the manston processing centre. an independent inspection injuly found it was well—equipped and professionally run, but found issues like a lack of beds and no access to fresh air or exercise. today, the chief inspector of prisons told the bbc the situation had "significantly deteriorated" and said the "home office and contractors need to get a grip". almost 40,000 people have crossed the channel

in small boats this year. most people coming by boat claim asylum. they should be told if they can stay within six months, but figures show more than 70% of applicants haven't heard back in that time. the immigration minister, robertjenrick, says the government is working to make things better. the issue is the sheer number of migrants who have crossed the channel in recent weeks and that is putting immense pressure on the infrastructure that was created. we never planned or created infrastructure for 40,000 people to cross the channel in small boats in a single year alone and it may well be more before the end of 2022. what we have to do at manston is ensure that it returns to a well—run, compassionate, humane site which can manage around 1000 to 2000 individuals. at the moment it has got significantly more than that. we are working intensely now everyday to reduce that population.

our home affairs and legal correspondent dominic casciani has the latest. once an airfield, now a migrant reception centre, stretched beyond its capacity. manston near the english channel was designed to hold up to 1600 migrants for 24 hours. it's now struggling with almost three times that. a report today from the prisons watchdog raises fresh questions over how the home office has managed arrivals since the summer. manston was opened in february to quickly process migrants arriving over the sea. the report says that injuly it was well equipped and staff were professional. but inspectors concluded challenges remained. the centre had no beds or fresh air. and now the situation has deteriorated. the chief inspector of prisons says his team will be going back soon. what we're saying to the home office is really, get a grip. because of the concerns that have been raised by a number of sources, we've actually decided that we will return to the site

and re—inspect again in the nearfuture. this is quite unusual for us to do. normally we would return in a couple of years or so. but it seems to us that what we're hearing is the deterioration has been so great, that we have no choice but to return. the number of migrants who have crossed the channel so far this year in small boats has almost reached 40,000. pressure on the home secretary, suella braverman, who's been accused of ignoring warnings that manston could be overwhelmed. last night, she defended her record since coming into office. on no occasion have i blocked the procurement of hotels or alternative accommodation. the british people deserve to know which party is serious about stopping the invasion on our southern coast, and which party is not. government critics say the real problem is not the numbers arriving, but the home office's record

in managing them. clearly there is huge pressure and therefore they are behind the events in that sense, because otherwise we would not have that level of overcrowding. there is clearly a great difficulty in actually coping with the level of arrivals. and that is, i'm afraid, yielding all sorts of pretty unacceptable results, particularly within manston. labour says the government can't escape responsibility for a system ministers admit is broken. with the plan to send migrants to rwanda mired in the courts, it's not clear how the home secretary will fix, and quickly, a phenomenon that her critics say is now a matter of political competence. dominic casciani, bbc news. more now on the migrant processing centre in kent, and the chief inspector of prisons has been speaking to the bbc news channel in the last hour. he explained more about what inspectors found when they visited manston processing centre injuly.

generally, the centre was working reasonably well, but we have since then had intelligence from a number of very credible sources, from trade unions who are working on the site, from the local mp, from other people who are involved with the site, third sector organisations, and this makes us think that we ought to be going as soon as possible to go and re—inspect. it is a real concern. when we visited in the summer, there were people in fairly cramped conditions in the marquees which are provided for the migrants, but they were only spending relatively short periods of time in those marquees and were therefore being moved on fairly quickly, but it is extremely concerning to hear that both the numbers have increased but also the amount of time that people are spending on the site has increased as well. manston is a short—term holding facility which means that people should be going in there, being quickly processed and then moving on, but what we are hearing

is that is no longer the case. they are sleeping by and large on the floor. there are sort of rubber mats down and then on top of the rubber mats they are putting blankets to turn them into sort of rudimentary mattresses, but it is cramped conditions. there are not proper beds, people are sleeping on benches in some of the marquees and generally it is very uncomfortable, and particularly in the tent that is given over to families, where as you can imagine the noise levels during the night i suspect are extremely high. the chief inspector of prisons there. early i caught up with our political correspondent who began by telling me why the current migrant crisis has been a difficult line to walk for the government. ilat crisis has been a difficult line to walk for the government. not the suella braverman _ walk for the government. not the suella braverman heroes - walk for the government. not the i suella braverman heroes embattled herself having come over some scrutiny of the last few days over her conduct. —— who is embattled.

she was reappointed having resigned from the post a week earlier. and her choice of language, the way she is approaching the problem, drawing criticism, not only from opposition parties but some rumblings in her own party as well and it all comes down to whether she has acted swiftly enough and effectively enough to head of the problems at the manston processing centre in kent, which as we have seen and have been hearing, are significant. so i do not think there will be any letup in the scrutiny on suella braverman as this problem continues to play out and the government is urged to get a grip of it. find out and the government is urged to get a grip of it— get a grip of it. and she is looking at two sight _ get a grip of it. and she is looking at two sight a _ get a grip of it. and she is looking at two sight a bit, _ get a grip of it. and she is looking at two sight a bit, first _ get a grip of it. and she is looking at two sight a bit, first at - get a grip of it. and she is looking at two sight a bit, first at the i at two sight a bit, first at the origin of the problem and then how migrants are mannish when they get to the uk. it feels that she was to focus on the fact they are arriving in the first phase? —— art managed when they get to the uk. yes.

profits of £7 billion between july and september, almost triple the figure for the same period last year. sport now, and a full round—up from the bbc sport centre. good afternoon. england have beaten new zealand in the men's t20 cricket world cup by 20 runs in brisbane. keeping their hopes of a semi final spot alive. they're now second in group one. england, batting first, knew a win would put them back in the top two and boost their chances of a semi—final spot. jos buttler with an entertaining innings, making 73 off 47 balls as england finished on 179—6. with new zealand on 65—2 moeen ali dropped a simple catch off glenn phillips, who went on to make 62.

he was eventually caught in the 18th over off the bowling of sam curran, as new zealand fell 20 runs short, reaching 159 — six from their 20 overs. in the earlier match of the tournament sri lanka secured a six—wicket win over afghanistan. sri lanka restricted afghanistan to 144—8. dhananjaya de silva's unbeaten 66 then steered sri lanka to their target with nine balls to spare at the gabba. afghanistan are now out — their two previous games were wash outs. games were washouts. sri lanka can only qualify for the semi—finals if they beat england — and afghanistan beat australia. the women's rugby league world cup gets underway this afternoon, as hosts england look to stop the dominace of australia and new zealand who've won every edition of the competition so far. england captain emily rudge will lead the side out at headingley, in front of an expected crowd of 15,000 in the fourth world cup

of her career. despite not being a professional side, they'll look to capitalise on what has been a great year so far for women's sport. seeing the lionesses and what they achieved is massively inspirational for us, and hopefully if we can replicate that, how incredible that would be for the sport and for the women's game and hopefully we can inspire young girls to want to be part of rugby league and to want to play the sport. that is definitely something that is on the back of our minds, that we are also trying to achieve. so yes, it is really exciting. tottenham insist they're fully prepared as they get ready to take on marseille tonight in the champions league without suspended manager antonio conte. spurs need a point to reach the knockout stages of the competition, but can expect a real cauldron—like atmosphere. conte was sent off in the closing moments of their last group match against sporting lisbon. jurgen klopp's also in the spotlight —

his side are 15 points behind the leaders in the premier league, but have qualified for the knockout stage of the champions league already. they host italian league leaders napoli later. that's all the sport for now. former health secretary matt hancock has lost the conservative whip after announcing he is heading to the australian jungle to take part in this year's series of i'm a celebrity... get me out of here!. he is only the likes of boy george and chris moore is on the reality series which starts this weekend. he says he is doini which starts this weekend. he says he is doing it _ which starts this weekend. he says he is doing it for _ which starts this weekend. he says he is doing it for charity. _ which starts this weekend. he says he is doing it for charity. -- - which starts this weekend. he says he is doing it for charity. -- chris i he is doing it for charity. —— chris moyles. it is going to be controversial. when nadine dorries in 2013 did something similar, catching the party of god, flying out to australia without telling

critical infrastructure, electricity infrastructure, in cities across the country, including in places away from the front lines. this is happening ahead of winter, so there is a lot of concern here that the system may not be able to cope amid rising demand as winter approaches. this is a country where temperatures can drop to —15, —20 celsius. last night, president zelensky again repeated his call for russia to be expelled from the g20, the group of leading economies, also from the united nations security council, for what he has described as russia's terrorist tactics. the government has revealed details of a previously secret programme to defend ukraine against russian cyber attacks. experts have been helping kyiv defend against what has been described as a "daily onslaught" on government and infrastructure computer systems. the foreign minister, leo doherty, explained more about the british support.

since february, we have been working in partnership with our ukrainian allies to help them bolster their cyber defences and we have brought some of our expertise to bear on helping them defend from what has been a daily onslaught of cyber attack from russia since the start of the invasion, and they have done a heroicjob at defending particularly their critical national infrastructure and it has been an honour to bring to bear some of our expertise in assisting them in doing that. so we are providing them with expertise, resources and hardware. and it is those three things combined that has allowed them to do an extremely good job at defending from cyber attack. of course, they have a long—standing and deep expertise in this field. since 2014 they have faced a considerable number of attacks. we also have a really good body of expertise we have built

that is the foreign office minister. dr tom withington is an electronic warfare analyst and associate fellow of the royal united services institute. he joins us from toulouse, in south—west france. welcome to the programme. what activities might thus include? could you give us example of how this might fit into the broader conflict? i think there are two things going on in terms of the cyber aspect to the ongoing conflict, particularly in terms of the assistance that the us and allied nations have provided. firstly, it is defensive. 0bviously attempting to assist the ukrainians as much as possible to ensure that any disruption caused by russian cyber attacks are blunted, let's say, we probably cannot stop them entirely but certainly degrade their effectiveness. the second thing

going on which is interesting as this is a very valuable opportunity for nato, allied nations, to get direct experience of russian cyber warfare expertise, doctorate, and how they conduct cyber warfare, and this is useful because if, heaven forbid, we everfind ourselves in a war with russia, that would include a cyber warfare at dimension on their part, so at this stage it is very useful to see how they practice cyber warfare and at that you can develop defensive strategies for use in the future if required. it appears communication is held up fairly well in ukraine, particularly as we hear the president broadcasting value regularly. yes, man of broadcasting value regularly. yes, many of my _ broadcasting value regularly. yes, many of my colleagues _ broadcasting value regularly. ii9: many of my colleagues and myself would have expected a much more holistic russian attack against ukrainian telecom indications infrastructure prior to the war and thenit

infrastructure prior to the war and then it during its open stages, but what we have seen is, we have seen attacks, but they have been relatively piecemeal in some areas. when it is is still very hard to say at this stage. i suspect go back to the package you had earlier, the ukrainians are no strangers to this, they have been fighting russia since 2014 and are probably more familiar than anyone else on a russian cyber warfare capabilities. those same capabilities would have been used and aimed at ukrainian telecommunications infrastructure, but the russians had not been able to switch off at ukrainian telecommunications either through cyber warfare or the use of electronic warfare, so jamming the microwave signals and trying to prevent the use of tele— communications that way, that raises significant questions about russian competence in this area. is this something the russians can do? it seems it is something they cannot do. they may be up scores of local

outages here and there, but they cannot shut it off entirely and that has been incredibly important for president zelensky and the ukrainians.— president zelensky and the ukrainians. :, ,, :, :, , ukrainians. you sate the ukrainians have been fighting _ ukrainians. you sate the ukrainians have been fighting the _ ukrainians. you sate the ukrainians have been fighting the russians i ukrainians. you sate the ukrainians have been fighting the russians in l have been fighting the russians in this context since 2014, what might we learn about the capabilities of russian cyber warfare? what conclusions might we draw thus far? think the first conclusion to draw is really not to be complacent, because i think from nato and allied nations at this point, it is quite easy to be tempted to say it is not perhaps quite as severe as we expected, there have been shortcomings here and there, and in that case perhaps we have overestimated our faux. that case perhaps we have overestimated ourfaux. i think that case perhaps we have overestimated our faux. i think that would be a disingenuous stance to take at this stage. i think if anything if ukraine, nato and those allied nations enjoy a technological advantage over russia in terms of

cyber warfare, advantage over russia in terms of cyberwarfare, i advantage over russia in terms of cyber warfare, i would advantage over russia in terms of cyber warfare, iwould be advantage over russia in terms of cyber warfare, i would be urging to widen that gap, advance even further, make sure your own capabilities so russian capabilities even further, but i think it is very difficult to say at this stage, because of busy we are still digesting and learning new things all the time, but the overriding one would be fussy not to underestimate russian cyber warfare capabilities, but to learn from what has happened so far and ensure our capabilities are able to cope with a direct threat in the future. now it's time for a look at the weather. a blustery day out and about but not as windy as a last night, but still 40-50 as windy as a last night, but still 40—50 mph gusts in some areas. and

plenty of showers. here they are on the radar picture, and flashes of lightning as well. this is the rain that went through last night as well, so dry for the remainder of the afternoon for many parts of eastern scotland and northern england, but the showers elsewhere are really heavy, some strong and gusty winds near them, and temperatures closer to the seasonal norm. but actually, they will be a little bit above average for most of the coming week. this evening and overnight, the showers come and go, eventually fading away for most parts overnight, so a brief respite from the wind and rain. a little bit of mist and fog as the wind is a full light in some areas, so a chillier night but by the morning we have the next area of rain sweeping across northern ireland. several hours of quite intense rain, strong to gale force winds, even inland gusts of 40—50 mph, so potentially disruptive wins in northern and western areas in particular. in fact, windy for all.

hello, this is bbc news. the headlines... conditions at a migrant processing centre in kent are described as �*wretched', as a watchdog calls on the home office to get a grip of the situation. the fact that this is happening for women, children, families, and other migrants is of great concern for us. what we have to do at manston is ensure that it returns to a well—run, compassionate, humane site, which can manage around 1,000 to 2,000 individuals. at the moment it has got significantly more than that. the treasury has told the bbc it's inevitable that everyone will need to pay more tax in the years ahead, and warns of "tough decisions". 0il giant bp announces profits of £7 billion betweenjuly and september — almost triple the figure for the same period last year. and, from the westminster jungle to the real one —

a new role for former health secretary matt hancock — he'sjoining i'm a celebrity. police in dundee have condemned anti—social behaviour when a group of youths through the macro threw fireworks at emergency vehicles. there were reports of people jumping on cars in the city �*s cuts and error. the disorder began on beauly square at about 5:30pm. riot police were deployed and one police officer suffered a minor injury. the head of the national grid has one that uk homes and businesses could face energy blackouts this winter. he says the uk does have sufficient energy supplies, but short outages are a possibility. the

company has announced a £50 million fund today to support those most in need to pay their energy bills for the next two winters. national grid owns the company whose primaryjob is keeping the lights and heating on, by ensuring there's sufficient energy supply to meet demand, even in the depths of winter. while the company's boss insists that remains the most likely outcome in the next few months, the chief executive, john pettigrew, said that an interruption of normal seasonal imports from europe could see mothballed coal—fired power stations fired up again, consumers and businesses paid to cut demand at peak times, and short blackouts as a last resort. there could be circumstances in which people are asked to reduce their demand. it will be over the peak of the day, which is between sort of four and 7pm. it's not going to be the whole country, but that is one of the scenarios that we've looked at. rolling switch—offs across the country? across the country. mr pettigrew also said that for the uk to hit government targets of a 400% increase in offshore wind power by 2030, big changes

in planning and regulation would be required to speedily build the hundreds of miles of new cables and overhead pylons needed onshore, to get the energy from off the east coast of the uk, where most of it will be produced, to the south of england, where most of it is used. to give you a sense of it, over the next eight years, onshore, we will need to build about seven times as much infrastructure in the next seven or eight years than we built in the last 32. but if we're going to achieve these really ambitious targets, then we are going to need changes to regulation in the uk, to the planning process, but also we need to work with local communities. the good news is that so far the winter has been extremely mild. the bad news is that electricity can't yet be effectively stored and saved for periods of extreme cold, which consumers — and companies like national grid — will be hoping can be avoided.

bp has announced a big rise in profits in the months betweenjuly and september this year. it is more than double the profit over the same three months last year. the company will pay a windfall tax of 700 this year. bp is the latest oil major to have announced big profits lately, as caroline davies explained. shell, who announced they were making 9.5 billion us dollars of profit in the same period, around $4.2 billion, chevron making 12.2 billion us dollars, so this was an expected announcement that there was going to be a prophet, and this comes off the back of a previous quarter where bp was making even more profit. this is a good yearfor bp, and in terms of what they are doing, we have heard they will be paying the windfall tax, which is different to shell and we will come

onto that and a second. so they will pay some of this money back in, but at the moment it seems like the windfall tax seems to be more of a reputational issue for the energy in industry rather than a big financial issue because they are making large amounts of and a lot of them are putting it back towards their share holders and making sure their balance sheets look more healthy. 5a balance sheets look more healthy. so how much money could be coming their way of the government? irate how much money could be coming their way of the government?— way of the government? we know that bp has said that _ way of the government? we know that bp has said that for— way of the government? we know that bp has said that for its _ way of the government? we know that bp has said that for its amount - way of the government? we know that bp has said that for its amount of i bp has said that for its amount of money, they are going to be paying £695 million, or about 800 million us dollars in windfall tax in 2022. bearin us dollars in windfall tax in 2022. bear in mind we are talking about those mega profits they are making across the world, that is across the world, so not necessarilyjust the profits in the uk. so in terms of the tax they are liable for, that is in a smaller section of those profits. but they say they will pay that over the course of the seven months this windfall tax has been in place in the uk. what we had last week is that shell are not paying in full tax, and that is because there

is a clause that rishi sunak set out which means you can offset that tax on investments, so if they are investing in north sea 0il, on investments, so if they are investing in north sea oil, then they don't have to pay that amount of tax. so bp are paying it but we don't have total figures for how much the windfall tax is going to be gathering. we know that the government said it would be about £5 billion over the course of the year, but we don't have the full figures for all the areas. it is but we don't have the full figures for all the areas.— for all the areas. it is a genuine riori , for all the areas. it is a genuine priority. perhaps _ for all the areas. it is a genuine priority, perhaps not _ for all the areas. it is a genuine priority, perhaps not the - for all the areas. it is a genuine priority, perhaps not the northl for all the areas. it is a genuine i priority, perhaps not the north sea in terms of the climate, but renewable energy and developing a greater capacity to develop our own energy. greater capacity to develop our own eneri . . :, greater capacity to develop our own eneri . , :, :, i, greater capacity to develop our own eneri . , :, :, i , :, greater capacity to develop our own eneri . , :, :, i, :, :, :, energy. yes, and that's what a lot of energy companies _ energy. yes, and that's what a lot of energy companies would - energy. yes, and that's what a lot of energy companies would say, i energy. yes, and that's what a lot i of energy companies would say, that they are trying to expand and this is the way forward and they know they need to be a lower carbon producer of energy and that is something bp have talked about, shall have talked about. the concern of many people is that a lot of the moment i will have these profits are coming in and not enough are going into these investments for many

people is liking. a lot of this is going towards shareholders and buy—back share schemes, and some are concerned that that is where the money is going and actually it should be going into faster innovation to be able to move even faster towards a renewable future. it is nowjust a week until the us mid—term elections. president biden has threatened oil companies with higher taxes unless they invest their record profits in lowering prices at the pump. mr biden and his democratic party are hoping to cling onto their narrow majorities in congress. let us go quickly to the house of commons and an urgent question on local radio. i commons and an urgent question on local radio. :, ,, :, :, :, , local radio. i thank the honourable lad for local radio. i thank the honourable lady for kingston _ local radio. i thank the honourable lady for kingston upon _ local radio. i thank the honourable lady for kingston upon hull- local radio. i thank the honourable lady for kingston upon hull for- lady for kingston upon hull for highlighting this news announcement which we learnt about yesterday. i think it gives the house an opportunity to demonstrate the value that we all place on bbc local radio services. we are currently celebrating 100 years of bbc radio with its unique position in the radio markets, the bbc has continued

to develop and deliver high quality and engaging audio services to the country and internationally over the years. bbc local radio is one of its crown jewels, years. bbc local radio is one of its crownjewels, developed in the years. bbc local radio is one of its crown jewels, developed in the late 19605 crown jewels, developed in the late 1960s and 70s, the bbc �*s 39 local radio services in england still reach 5.7 million listeners each and every week. as honourable members know, bbc low local radio is highly valued outside london with stations in derby, humberside, cornwalland devon have higher numbers than the average. changes in listening patterns need the —— needs to look at it services. 0verall, patterns need the —— needs to look at it services. overall, we do have concerns about proposals which we were not given notice of. i want to take the opportunity to stress that the bbc is rightly operationally and editorially independent from the government and decisions on service delivery are ultimately a matter for them. however, the governorate is disappointed that the bbc is planning to make such extensive cuts

to his local radio output —— the government. we await more news from the bbc about how those changes will impact local communities. at its best, particularly during the pandemic, bbc local radio is able to bring communities together and it plays a vital role in reflecting local experiences and delivering local experiences and delivering local news. for those older residents living in rural areas, it can be a particular lifeline. the bbc must make sure it continues to provide distinctive and genuinely local radio services with content that reflects and represents people and communities from all corners of the uk. we recognise in the current fiscal context the bbc like other organisations, is facing difficult financial decisions, but we are concerned that the bbc is making such far—reaching decisions, particularly about its local news provision, without setting out further detail on how it will impact audiences and the communities it serves, and the context of a £3.8 billion licence fee, we don't have any details about how this proposal

will save. the bbc must comply with its charter duties and the government is clear that 0fcom must make sure that the bbc �*s robustly held to account in delivering its mission of public purposes. we notice at the bbc is also proposing establishing 11 investigative reporting teams across england which will see the creation of 71 new journalism rolls, delivering original stories across tv, radio and online. as the house will be aware we are undertaking a mid—term charter review which we have set out, and that will evaluate how to be and 0fcom assess the market impact in the marketplace and how that relates to the wider uk media ecology, including with regard to commercial radio and local news sectors. i am scheduled to meet with the bbc next week, where i shall seek the chairman and the director—general, and i shall raise with them the concerns that are brought in the chamber today and we expect to be busy to brief parliamentarians on its announcement

shortly. thank you, mr speaker. let me welcome the minister to her place and for many of her comments today. bbc radio stations are a vital source of information and for sharing communal experiences. i recently attended the radio humberside make a difference award which highlighted the work of local people in the communities. march last year, the head of audio and digital will be busy england celebrated these awards are saying, "the power of radio is huge when it comes to connecting local communities in their hour of need". i agree. local radio, especially radio humberside, brings a feeling of belonging and companionship, especially to those who are isolated from everyday interactions. they also hold democratically elected local politicians to announce, and during the lockdown they provided an invaluable service, enabling and publicising local can support and initiatives and disseminating up—to—the—minute news. local radio has a 5.7 million listeners, more

listeners than radio one and radio five live, and it is the embodiment of public service broadcasting. it remains true to those principles behind the creation of the bbc 100 years ago. the plans announced yesterday without consultation at all of local communities for the changes to the content of local radio effectively means that local radio effectively means that local radio cease to exist after 2pm. there are predicted to be 139 redundancies in radio humberside, as well as the impact on those individuals it represents a collective loss of local expertise and knowledge, and of campaigning community voices. does the minister agree that local listeners should have been consulted? does the minister also agree that the loss of provision will be damaging to clear the community as they lose an important voice for their experiences? finally, does the ministeragree experiences? finally, does the minister agree that local radio cannot call itself local when it stops being local after 2pm?

questions in the commons about local bbc radio. as i was saying a few moments ago, it is nowjust a week until the us mid—term elections with domestic energy prices very much on the political agenda. president biden has threatened oil companies with higher taxes and less they invest their record profits in lower prices at the pump. the democratic party are hoping to cling on to their narrow majorities in congress. if you have been watching tv in america this year, you won't have been able to escape things like this. you just might need that semiautomatic. republican ads featuring guns. or maybe a little smith & wesson 38. explosions. and more guns. and from democrats, you will have seen a lot of this. the supreme court has taken away a woman's most fundamental freedom,

control of her own body. same election cycle, very different focus. republicans believe that putting guns in ads shows that they support the second amendment. but more than that, it proves their conservative values. my father taught me how to handle my first gun. i taught my son 0liver had to do the same. i have been shooting and hunting my whole life. and look at how this candidate ties gun ownership to individual freedom. and i approve this message because without gun rights, before long, you have no rights. while there is no real chance of americans losing their gun rights anytime soon, suggesting they might can motivate republicans to go to the polls. and when it comes to democrats trying motivate democrats... from this day forward, august the 25th, women all across texas are no longer free... ..to make decisions about our own body.

the number one focus of democratic ads has been abortion. specifically, highlighting the idea that more elected republicans means less abortion access. we should be putting pregnant women at ease, not putting their lives at risk. so, republicans play on the fear of losing gun rights, and the freedoms that come with those rights. democrats hone in on a different fear and the loss of another right. i have a warrant for your arrest. arrest for what? unlawful termination of a pregnancy. ads also reflect the news, so with inflation rising, republicans have targeted the economy and immigration. does he cut taxes? now, he is fighting to finish it, securing our border. _ in the senate, he will tackle out—of—control inflation, i unleashing our economy. with this gem thrown in for good measure... did we mention, he owns a gun range?

between them, the parties have spent more than $6 billion. yes, billion dollars, on tv ads. that is a tonne of money, given how few voters are actually open to persuasion. was it worth it? we will find out. i'm katty kay and i approve this message. polls have opened in the fifth general election in israel in four years. according to recent polls, the likud party headed by former pm netanyahu, who is currently on trial for corruption charges, is the most likely to win enough votes to form a right wing coalition together with ultra religious and ultra nationals parties. tom bateman told us the latest from jerusalem. already this morning with the polls open a few hours now, we have had the prime minister cast his own vote and photographed doing so. he described this as a choice between the future and the past, and i think

the future and the past, and i think the last part of that refers to benjamin netanyahu, who of course was prime ministerfor12 benjamin netanyahu, who of course was prime minister for 12 years until last year, when he was ousted by an eye geologically diverse coalition, which has been unable to survive. mr netanyahu himself on social media this morning, urging his own supporters to get out and vote because this is very likely to be yet another deadlocked election, the fifth we have had in four years. and the reason for that is that israeli are deeply divided over mr netanyahu himself. he is a polarising force, and in all these elections the two blocks led by his opponents and himself have been unable to decisively get a government that could last any longer than a year, in this particular case. here we are back again. what's different about this election is that inside that right—wing and religious blog headed by benjamin netanyahu, we have seen over the last few weeks surge in

support in the polls for an extremist far right alliance of parties. if they were to succeed, in the sense that mr netanyahu is just able to scrape a victory, we would see those ultranationalist parties potentially being given cabinet seats and that has worried the current coalition. they are saying that israelis should go out and vote, in their view, to defeat that because they have said that these people will come in their words, burn down the country. mr netanyahu suits all that aside and has made a call for his brand of religious and right—wing politics. scientists ate rhino horns have gradually strung over the last century. the analysis is based on analysis of photos of the last 140 years. the researchers from the university of cambridge believe hunting may be the cause as poachers target rhinos with long horns, which means that only smaller—horned animals survive and pass on this trait to their offspring.

taylor swift has become the first artist ever to claim all top ten spots in the us chart. all the tracks are from her new album, midnights, which was released just over a week ago. the album has also broken the record for the most streams in a single day on spotify — it was listened to 185 million times in 24 hours. it's a movie lover's dream — more than 1500 rare tv and film props are going under the hammer with a combined value of around £11 million. the iconic memorabilia up for grabs includes christopher reeve's superman suit, darth vader's gloves and david bowie's spaceman costume. tim muffett went to have a look. excuse me? that's a bad outfit. and it could be yours, if you've got a few hundred thousand pounds to spare. this is christopher reeve's complete outfit from superman.

there you go. bye — bye. and what's so special about it is the fact that it is a complete costume. we've often seen tunics and capes and belts come up on their own, but to have the complete set together is really very special. this has an auction estimate of £250,000 to £500,000. movie and music memorabilia is big business, and this auction is getting many collectors excited. a pair of gloves, but not just any gloves. no. these are probably from one of the greatest movie villains of all time. these are darth vader's gloves from star wars — a new hope. the death star plans are not in the main computer. where are those transmissions you intercepted? _ what have you done with those plans? how do you know these are the actual gloves that david prowse wore? so we're looking at things like the leather detailing and the way that it's stitched, and also the way that it folds here as well. for star wars — a new hope, actually, they had a very, very small budget. and in fact, there was only one complete darth vader costume

that was made for the entire film. as a pair of gloves, it's going to stand somewhere in the region of £150,000 to £250,000. there are more than 1,500 items up for grabs — from blade runner to batman. from this bible featured in the shawshank redemption, estimated price between £100,000 and £150,000, to this costume worn by david bowie in the video for his song, ashes to ashes. # ashes to ashes...# where do you get these items from? we're working with production companies, but we're also working with crew members who were able to acquire these artifacts at end of production sales. i mean, going back 20, 30 years ago, really, there was no thought about there being an intrinsic value for these artifacts. it's thought that collectively these items could fetch between £9 million and £11 million, maybe even more. butjust like any auction, the key thing is the provenance, knowing that each item really

is what it claims to be. this is paul mccartney's jacket that he wore on the morecambe and wise show in 1964. 0k, fellas, that's great. you look marvellous. you ready? there were fourjackets made for the band members, the beatles. and then ernie wise wore one as well. # we were strolling along.# anything associated with the beatles is in its own category when it comes to music. absolutely. and especially when you can see something like this, which is not just worn on stage for that moment. it was televised and it has an auction estimate of £25,000 to £35,000. hello, base 1. i'm over the island now. nostalgic purchases are a lot of what we're dealing with. this is from a classic james bond film, you only live twice, 1967. there's nothing here but volcanoes. understood. carry on. so there are actually two helmets that were made for the film. one was used and worn by ken wallace, who was the aviator, who flew the practical little nellie. this one was used specifically

and worn by sean connery for all the close up work in the studio. this has an auction estimate of £60,000 to £100,000. collectors across the world are gearing up for thursday when it'll be time for lights, camera, auction. now it's time for a look at the weather. good afternoon. 0ur changeable weather pattern continues. 0ctober weather pattern continues. october for most has brought average rainfall but well in excess for northern ireland. tuesday will see lots of rain in the south, and it is an unsettled pattern for much of the week. this chart shows the rain fall accumulating over the next four or five days. quite significant rainfall for most parts of the british isles actually for the next four or five days. british isles actually for the next four orfive days. so, where british isles actually for the next four or five days. so, where those showers come down throughout the rest of the afternoon, they will

bring a lot of rain, strong and gusty winds, 40—50 mph in places, perhaps viewers in northern england and eastern scotland, but still quite wet for the northern isles. temperatures are lower than those of yesterday, and as we go through the evening and overnight, the showers will slowly fade away. more after midnight for most of us and the next rain already sweeping into northern ireland. in between, it is a quieter period of weather with temperatures down to single figures, so a cooler night and a touch of grass frost around in the north in particular. a bit of mist and fog first thing tomorrow morning if you are travelling through the rush—hour. it should not last long because the wind is strengthening all the time, and heavy rain will pile in across northern ireland once again on saturated ground, and it will push on through the morning across northern and western parts of scotland, probably through the central belt and into parts of wales and northern england by the time we get to the end of the morning it is unlikely to reach east anglia and

the south—east until after dark. disruptive wins are possible, gas inland 40—50 mph, and severe gale force winds around the irish coast. the warnings can be found on the website. still mild, 11—16. that low pressure starts to blow out into the north sea but it leaves a legacy of rain on wednesday night and into thursday across southern areas. we don't know how long it'll take to clear away, don't know how long it'll take to clearaway, but don't know how long it'll take to clear away, but it could give significant rain for a time into south—east england and east anglia. showers rushing in behind, but some drier weather in between, and temperatures back down to the seasonal average, temperatures back down to the seasonalaverage, or temperatures back down to the seasonal average, or closer to them we have been for some time. by the end of the week, by friday, a ridge of high pressure so a quieter spell for a day, a drier day, but more rain is forecast.
