who have lost their lives serving in conflicts. at the cenotaph in london, king charles led his first remembrance sunday ceremony since acceding to the throne. the service was followed by a march—past of 10,000 veterans. 0ur royal correspondent, nicholas witchell reports. a solemn ceremony of national remembrance in its familiarform amid the colours of autumn, but with one notable absence. at one minute to ii, the king, charles iii, took his place at the cenotaph for the first time as britain's monarch. for so many decades, the nation's remembrance had been led by his late mother queen elizabeth. now she too is remembered for her service. at 11 o'clock, the national two—minute silence. big ben strikes the hour.

music: last post. at the cenotaph, the last post marked the end of the two—minute silence. the king laid his wreath in tribute to all those from the united kingdom and countries of the commonwealth who lost their lives in the world wars and more recent conflicts. wreaths were led by political leaders headed by british prime minister rishi sunak.

and then after the commonwealth representatives and the military chiefs, it was the turn of the veterans. 10,000 men and women who served on many different battlefields. 0n parade today, a0 years after the falklands war, 500 veterans of that conflict. so many with their own memories of comrades who never came home, remembered today with gratitude. nicholas witchell, bbc news. speaking on the sidelines of the ceremony at whitehall, defence secretary ben wallace reflected on the importance of remembrance sunday. i think today is a reminder that we have suffered wars in europe for an tens and thousands of petition service personnel gave their lives to defeat fascism and here we are again tragically, decades later, with a war on continental europe in ukraine where a similar russian regime is trying to impose its will

on a sovereign state costing tens of thousands of lives and what remembrance is about is recognising that freedom is not free. people make sacrifices. this nation made the ultimate sacrifice on two occasions in the great wars but also other conflict and it is time to reflect on that.— other conflict and it is time to reflect on that. , , ., reflect on that. there is something uni . ue reflect on that. there is something unique about _ reflect on that. there is something unique about this _ reflect on that. there is something unique about this remembrance i reflect on that. there is something - unique about this remembrance sunday since the invasion in ukraine? yes. since the invasion in ukraine? yes, for the first — since the invasion in ukraine? yes, for the first time _ since the invasion in ukraine? yes, for the first time since _ since the invasion in ukraine? yes, for the first time since the - since the invasion in ukraine? 133 for the first time since the second world war, there is a war in europe and it is an unnecessary war costing thousands of lives where russia is trying to impose itself on another sovereign state. the trying to impose itself on another sovereign state.— sovereign state. the first for his ma'es sovereign state. the first for his majesty the _ sovereign state. the first for his majesty the king _ sovereign state. the first for his majesty the king as _ sovereign state. the first for his majesty the king as monarch. i sovereign state. the first for his i majesty the king as monarch. how poignant is it for him? you majesty the king as monarch. how poignant is it for him?— poignant is it for him? you will obviously _ poignant is it for him? you will obviously remember _ poignant is it for him? you will obviously remember his - poignant is it for him? you will. obviously remember his mother, poignant is it for him? you will- obviously remember his mother, the late elizabeth ii. —— he will obviously remember his mother, the late elizabeth ii. for many years, yes to that the cenotaph beside her and now he is the new monarch and we will reflect on her giving her service to the very end, not stopping being the

sovereign, not abdicating all these things people used to speculate on, she was married to this country and her duty. the chancellor has told the bbc that everyone will pay more tax — and there will be spending cuts — when he gives his autumn statement on thursday. jeremy hunt said the most vulnerable would be protected, but difficult decisions had to be made. and he said in future there would be constraints on the government's support for people's energy bills. 0ur political correspondent jonathan blake reports. he's been warning us for weeks. this government will therefore take whatever tough decisions are necessary. we are going to have to take some very difficult decisions. it's not going to be easy, there are going to be some very difficult choices. and this morning the chancellor said, in the starkest terms yet, what his statement in a few days' time will mean for us all. we are going to see everyone paying more tax, we are going to see spending cuts.

but i think it's very important to say that we are a resilient country. the chancellor will not say yet what is coming but changes to income tax, a squeeze on government spending and energy firms giving up more of their profits are all expected. the principle i approach is i will not be hiding anything i do. i'm a conservative chancellor and i think i've been completely explicit that taxes are going to go up. that's a very difficult thing for me to do because i came into politics to do the exact opposite so i will be honest, i will be fair, and it will be a balanced approach that recognises that the economy is struggling at the moment, businesses are struggling, families are struggling, and we need to help people through a difficult time, whilst putting in place a long—term plan that gets us through to the other side and allows our economy to take off, as i really believe it can. help with energy bills would continue, mr hunt said, but scaled back from previous plans. one of the reasons for the instability that followed the mini budget was that people

were worried that we were exposing british public finances to the volatility of the international gas market, so there has to be some constraints to it. but yes, we will continue to support families. labour argues the conservatives are largely to blame for the state of the economy, and that a shift in long—term thinking is needed. it is so important that we have a serious plan for growing our economy and improving living standards of ordinary people. that will give us the money to invest in public services, butjust because you have to make difficult decisions doesn't mean you have to make the same decisions. the decisions and choices that labour would be making would make our tax system fairer and would grow the economy so we have the money for those essential public services. some conservatives worry raising taxes could make things worse. whatever political case is made, big decisions with a big impactare looming. jonathan blake, bbc news.

in the united states, the democrats have retained control of the senate in the mid—term elections, after winning a pivotal race in the state of nevada. president biden said he was incredibly pleased by the results, which are a blow to donald trump's hopes of running again for the white house. 0ur north america editor sarah smith, sent this report. after a nail—biting wait, democrats can now celebrate a result they didn't dare hope for when voters went to the polls last week. i am so grateful to all of you. the democratic incumbent in nevada, catherine cortez masto, was considered to be one of the party's more vulnerable senators, but us networks now project she has defeated her republican challenger adam laxalt, a trump acolyte who repeats the big lie about the 2020 presidential election having been stolen. chuck schumer is the democratic senate leader. this election is a victory, victory and a vindication for democrats, our agenda, and for america and for the american people.

her control of the house of representatives remains to be decided, as around 20 seats haven't yet been declared. whichever party wins, it looks set to have a very narrow majority. i'm predicting that, i as i've said all along, it will be perilously close. we can win it. whether we are going to win it remains to be seen. - this victory means even if republicans win the run—off election in georgia scheduled for 6th december, that democrats will remain in control of the senate as vice president kamala harris casts a tie—breaking vote. historically, the party in power in washington usually loses a considerable number of seats in the mid—term elections. the democrats' performance this year is the best for any governing party in 20 years. sara smith, bbc news, washington. in ukraine, president volodymr zelensky has said russian troops destroyed all the critical infrastructure in kherson — including water, heating and electricity — before they abandoned the city. ukrainian officials have imposed a curfew there, because of what they say is a continuing security threat. ukraine regained control of the city,

after moscow said 30,000 russian troops were pulled out of the area on friday. but there are reports that the kremlin�*s forces are making new fortifications on the left bank of the dnipro river. our international editor, jeremy bowen has the latest. here in the central square in kherson, there is a sense of relief, joy, kherson, there is a sense of relief, joy, patriotism as well, they're loving the fact can waive the ukrainian flag. but there is trepidation, too, because they saw the russians close for more than eight months and they are very aware that even though the russians have gone, they are not far away, in range potentially and many hard months if not years of the war lie ahead of them. as well as that, let's talk about what happened while the russians were occupying the city

and who collaborated with them for what happens after. people here are saying they need justice. they are saying they need justice. they are saying that some people might take their law into the own hands if they don't get it. to cricket, and in the last hour england have beaten pakistan by five wickets in the men's t20 world cup at the melbourne cricket ground. england turned the tables on pakistan with some remarkable bowling and captain ben stokes reeling in a half—century to gain a modest victory of 138. it's england's second t20 title. 0ur reporter henry moeran was watching the match. what an extraordinary evening, the england men's cricket side becoming the holders of both the 50 over and 20 over world cups, doing it here at the melbourne cricket ground, ground of over 80,000 predominantly following pakistan but england got it over the line chasing a target of

what you're going to do is bring some breaking news now. it is news that has just come in about people who have been killed when two vintage world war ii error planes collided and crashed at an airshow in the us in dallas. —— world war ii era planes. there was footage yesterday weighted to the aircraft striking each other at low altitude and a fireball was seen as it hit the ground, and we have had the news that the six people on board were killed, firefighters said there were no injuries among people on the ground, so that is breaking news that has just come in from the authorities in dallas, texas, confirming that the six people have died after two vintage world war ii planes crashed at that airshow there.

the government has confirmed that almost a1,000 migrants have now crossed the channel to the uk so far this year. there were more arrivals at dover this morning — the ministry of defence said 972 people made the crossing yesterday. 0ur correspondent simonjones is in dover. reaching the milestone of a0,000 people having made the crossing so far this year is a difficult moment for the british government which has made such a play of saying it would take back control of british borders. weather—wise, it is very calm in the channel, which means for the border force, the lifeboat and coastguard who deal with these crossings, it will be anything but a calm day, we expect people to arrive in the large numbers as they did yesterday. we are told that britain and france are inching ever closer to a new deal to try to stop or at least reduce the crossings and we are told britain will have to give

france millions of pounds to fund extra police officers on the beaches everin extra police officers on the beaches ever in northern france. france is said to be stopping just over a0% of crossings but the authorities think that figure needs to be more like 70% or 80% to really begin to break the business model of the people smugglers who are organising the journeys. this agreement is also likely to see british immigration officers based in control rooms over in northern france. they are unlikely to see british border officer boots on the ground. regarding sovereignty. in terms of other ideas to stop the crossing. writing in the sunday times, saying he wants to stop what he calls the

lure of hotel britain. many people making the crossing ending up in put up making the crossing ending up in put up in hotels because there is not any suitable accommodation for them, saying at is acting as a bit of a magnet. he says he wants more functional accommodation such as looking in and perhaps using former student accommodation disused holiday parks about groups which support refugees here in the uk say the idea that people are coming across simply wanting to languish in hotels is false and the big backlog assesses that there are more than 100,000 baht in terms of what we are expecting to day and tomorrow with the weather calm, we are expecting more busy times. you'll a —— a police officer with the lancashire force has been charged with attempted murder.

it follows an incident at a hotel in manchester when a woman was taken to hospital. james riley, who's 27, has been remanded in custody, to appear in court tomorrow. failings in the energy market have cost £2.7 billion pounds — that's almost £100 pounds per household — according to a group of mps. the public accounts committee said the industry regulator, 0fgem, had been too late to spot problems before a spike in wholesale energy prices last year, which caused dozens of suppliers to go bust. our business correspondent, mark ashdown, reports. until 2016, the energy market was dominated by the big six suppliers — including british gas and edf. 0fgem's efforts to create more competition and cheaper prices led to dozens of smaller firms flooding in. but, within a couple of years, problems started to emerge. and this group of mps says the regulator was too slow to get a grip. it was a balance between how financially resilient they are where something went wrong. and when problems of their financial

resilience became apparent in 2018, 0fgem didn't act till 2019, and a regulator needs to be there on the side of a consumer. and, in this case, they really missed that boat. and that, this report says, came at a cost. sincejuly last year, a total of 28 energy suppliers have gone out of business. that's affected around a million households. it's being paid for in all our bills to the tune of £2.7 billion, or £9a per household. the report says the energy price cap only gives limited protection to households. since it was first introduced in 2019, the typical bill payer has seen their costs go up by 221%. this committee now fears that wholesale prices could force the current cap of £3,500 for an average household significantly higher. in a statement, 0fgem said the sheer scale and pace of this once—in—a—generation global energy price shock meant supplier failures were seen all over the world. but the supplier of last resort scheme acted as a vital safety net for british consumers, ensuring they continued to receive energy when their supplier failed. the committee of mps is also calling on the government to lay out

how it plans to reform the energy market to support households as it moves away from fossil fuels towards more renewable energy supplies. mark ashdown, bbc news. somewhat cushioning the blow of those energy bills has been in milder weather we've been having. now it's time for a look at the weather with susan powell. hello, you've seen some unseasonally warm weather across the uk in recent days, we are going to see temperatures returning closer to average values for the week ahead, also turning more unsettled once again spells of heavy rain and some strong winds particularly mid week coming in from the atlantic and through the evening and overnight, quite windy to the west of the uk and let overnight and northern ireland, western wales and the far south—west of england. elsewhere, staying dry, turning quite misty and murky in some central and eastern parts for monday but cooler in east anglia, five in norwich. 0ur weather
