1:31 pm
when it happens so quickly. as we head through the next few hours we've got that rain in the south—east clearing away, elsewhere some sunshine and also a rash of showers across parts of wales and the south—west. those could well be thundery. for much of scotland and northern ireland some sunshine, a few showers and temperature is about average. this evening, you can see the circulation of showers across the circulation of showers across the south—west, these will be heavy, perhaps thundery, and accompanied by brisk winds coming in from the north—west affecting some coastal parts. through the early hours the rash of showers moving eastwards affecting south east england, thundery for some. you can see the ridge of high pressure building on and for some that means it's a quiet night, a dry night, a chilly night. through parts of scotland, even in the central belt towns and cities, down to freezing, if not lower, so for someone friday morning scraping the windscreen i imagine. for many a cool start but dry, some sunshine. sunshine in the highlands and a

1:33 pm
heavy rain tracking west to east across the country. dry by bonfire night. sunday, is heavy rain lingering across parts of the south—east. that's the forecast. a reminder of our top story... the bank of england raises interest rates to 3% in the biggest single hike for well over 30 years. that's all from the bbc news at one. it's goodbye from me. on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc�*s news teams where you are. have a very good afternoon. good afternoon, i'm laura mcghie. this is the bbc news channel, it's 1.33pm and here's your latest sports news. we start with the t20 world cup and a pivotal match between pakistan and south africa in sydney — with pakistan needing a win to avoid elimination from the group stages. pakistan launched a recovery after

1:35 pm
as the tottenham striker son heung—min faces a race to be fit for the world cup as well. he'll need surgery to stabilise a fracture around his left eye. son suffered the injury during spurs champions league win at marseille on tuesday night. tottenham haven't put a timescale on how long he'll be out for. it's unimaginable for korean fans to play in the world cup without son, and the news actually announced from tottenham at 5am korean time this morning, and since then all day, all media is talking about the news and they are talking about whether son can come back before the world cup or not, all day. it's notjust sports news for korea, its national news, and all the country are worried about him.
1:36 pm
lee halfpenny returns at full—back after more than a year out injured. he is one of three british and irish lions who are back in the wales team after a long—term injury absence. a new women's nations league will launch next autumn, as uefa has announced an overhaul to the international game in europe. teams will be split into three tiers — linking to how teams qualify for the women's euros. on current standings, england and wales would be in the top tier, with scotland and northern ireland in tier 2. now how about this for snatching victory from the jaws of defeat. a medal looked out of reach for great britain at the world gymnastics championships untiljake jarman held his nerve, to secure a team bronze for his team with some brilliant scores. england failed to find any consolation in their three test netball series against australia
1:37 pm
as they lost their final match by 57 points to 53. australia showed just why they're the world's topped ranked team by winning the series last sunday. despite that they didn't ease off the gas for the final encounter in brisbane. the diamonds opened the scoring and lead for the whole match. that's all the sport for now. and lead for the whole match. you can find more on all those stories on the bbc sport website. that's bbc.co.uk/sport. i'll be back with another update later. more now in the interest rate rise enhanced by the bank of england. andrew bailey has been spelling out the issues. ., ._ . . . , the issues. today we have increased the issues. today we have increased the bank rate _ the issues. today we have increased the bank rate by _ the issues. today we have increased the bank rate by no _ the issues. today we have increased the bank rate by no .75 _ the issues. today we have increased the bank rate by no .75 percentage i the bank rate by no .75 percentage points to 3%. this is the eighth consecutive increase in bank rate since december of last year. we have raised rates by a total of 2.9
1:38 pm
percentage points during that period. these are big changes. they have a real impact on people cosmic lives. so, why are we doing it and why are we doing it now when so many people are already struggling with higher energy and food prices? if quite simply won't crease the bank rate because inflation is too high. it is the bank was myjob to bring it down. for a long time and inflation had been low and stable. most people did not have to worry about inflation. that has changed. it has changed with supply change problems after the pandemic, the russian invasion of ukraine and the shrinkage of the uk labour force. consumer price inflation now stands at over io%. i know for many people will feel worse because the prices of essentials like energy and groceries have risen by much more. people should not have to worry about inflation as they go about
1:39 pm
their daily business. that is why we have been raising interest rates, and did so again today. low and stable inflation is the bedrock of a stable inflation is the bedrock of a stable economy. a predictable economy, in which people can go about their lives and plan for their futures with confidence. an economy in which hard earned money keeps its value. if we do not act forcefully now it will be worth later on. as the forecast we are publishing today shows, it is a tough road ahead. the sharp increase in energy prices has made us poorer as a nation. the level of economic activity is likely to be flat and even for for some time. the economy will recover and inflation will fall. we cannot i'm afraid to pretend to know what will happen to gas prices, that depends on the war in ukraine, but from where we stand now we think
1:40 pm
inflation will begin to fall back from the middle of next year. probably quite sharply. to make sure that happens, the bank rate may need to go up further over the coming months. we cannot make promises about future interest rates, but based on where we stand today, we think the bank rate will have to go up think the bank rate will have to go up by think the bank rate will have to go up by less than currently priced in financial markets, and that is important because it means that the rates are new fixed term mortgages should not lead to rise as they have done. i want to make some additional points, there will coming up i believe. to start with, there have been significant volatility since our last press conference at the beginning of august. the lines on this chart shows a peak level of interest rates and how those
1:41 pm
expectations have moved around since our last forecast. the expectations for the bank rate here are plotted with the turquoise line. at the time of the august report it rose to a peak of about 3% in march next year. by peak of about 3% in march next year. by the september policy announcement the peak was 5%, one year ahead. on the peak was 5%, one year ahead. on the 27th of september the past reached its highest peak at nearly 6.5% in november next year. at the market close yesterday stood about 4.75%. given these moves we have conditioned our november forecast in the final seven days of our usual 15 day window. this means the focus we present today conditions on the part of the bank rate rises to a peak of
1:42 pm
five point 25% during the second quarter of next year. despite the shorter window this is higher than we had in august. part of the increase in price and reflects global developments, but is this next chart illustrates, it has clearly being a uk specific component, you can see that in the light turquoise bars. indeed, the significant moves of the uk yields on uk financial conditions more broadly have occurred in parallel with significant developments on fiscal policy. as we describe in the box in the march policy report that price guarantee on the energy breel relief scheme which provides support to households and businesses with them bills. the price going to an energy will last six months. details have yet to follow beyond that period.

1:56 pm
some big puddles and some flooding in places, not helped by all the leaves on the ground, either. some locations here are three parts of essex in towards kent and sussex, the greater london area, well, that was about half the usual amount of rain you'd see for the entire month of november. as we head into the afternoon, that rain clearing away across the south—east. elsewhere some sunshine through much of the rest of england. a rash of showers in towards wales, one or two in towards parts of northern ireland, scotland are pretty decent afternoon, too. into this evening and a rash of showers across the south of wales, in towards the south—west. these can be thundery, accompanied by gusty winds. strong north—north—westerlies, and those thundery downpours pushing eastwards. but you can see on the pressure sequence overnight tonight that the system queries, and this ridge of high pressure building in, so that which just quieten things down, and with clear skies it will be quite chilly across parts of scotland through the central belt. even in towns and cities it could be down to freezing, if not lower.
1:57 pm
it does mean it's a chilly start for someone friday, but the dry and bright one. any wet weather in the south—east clears, a rash of showers across the highlands and islands drifting south, but for many friday brings a lot of dry weather with some decent spells of sunshine around. still a brisk wind around the far north of scotland in the northern isles. temperatures 10—14 celsius north to south. then, as we look ahead, now, towards the weekend, we see weather fronts moving in off the atlantic, tracking eastwards across the country, bringing some spells of rain and some blustery showers at times, too. first off, let's take a look at saturday. you can see we've got this weather front working its way west to east across the country, bringing a spell of rain through the day, brightening up across northern ireland, the west of scotland and wales later on, but the cloud and rain lingering across parts of the south and south—east. and, of course, saturday evening and saturday night, bonfire night, perhaps lots of firework displays going on, and for a good swathes towards the west and north—west, though, breezy was showers, and cloudy with rain at times lingering across parts of the south—east. so, for the weekend
1:58 pm
in general, saturday, by day, pretty wet at times with rain tracking eastwards. on sunday that rain likely to linger across parts of the south—east. that's the forecast.
