the home secretary, suella braverman, has signed a new agreement with france to reduce the number of migrants crossing the channel on small boats. the uk will give france more money for increased patrols on french beaches, and for better surveillance such as drones and night vision equipment. for the first time british immigration officals will be in french control rooms. so far this year, more than 40,000 people have made the crossing, the highest number on record, as richard galpin reports. according to latest figures, 853 people were detected crossing the channel in small boats on sunday. after 972 crossed on saturday. these are record numbers. the government is under pressure to bring them down. today the home secretary, suella braverman, has signed a revised deal with the french counterpart to try to turn this

how much difference do you think this new agreement will make to the number of people arriving there on the kent coast? the number of people arriving there on the kent coast?— the kent coast? the home office admits there _ the kent coast? the home office admits there is _ the kent coast? the home office admits there is no _ the kent coast? the home office admits there is no single - the kent coast? the home office. admits there is no single solution. at the moment about 40% of crossings have been stopped by the french, but authorities say that figure needs to double to stop the people smuggling gangs. the government has said about 4% of asylum claims made by people crossing the channel by boat last year have been processed and that has led many people to criticise just how long it is taking to deal with the backlog.— just how long it is taking to deal with the backlog. celestino, thank ou. let's with the backlog. celestino, thank yom let's go _ with the backlog. celestino, thank yom let's go to — with the backlog. celestino, thank you. let's go to hugh _ with the backlog. celestino, thank you. let's go to hugh schofield i with the backlog. celestino, thank you. let's go to hugh schofield in| you. let's go to hugh schofield in paris. what are the french government saying about this agreement signed today? i government saying about this agreement signed today? i think the first thing to —

basic point the french keep making is they have an interest in their not being a draw to calais as well. they want this to work so migrant groups and people smuggling groups no longerfeel it groups and people smuggling groups no longer feel it is in their interest to come and send people up to calais. they hope this works but it is only the latest in a long number of agreements like this in the past. number of agreements like this in the ast. . ~ the us president, joe biden, has held his first face—to—face talks with the chinese leader, xijinping. it comes at a time of heightened tensions between the two countries, especially over the island of taiwan, which china claims as its territory. the meetings taking place on the sidelines of the g20 summit of world leaders in bali. from there, our south east asia correspondentjonathan head reports. it isa it is a summit of the world's 20

been asked about it and his approach to it in the last hour. we been asked about it and his approach to it in the last hour.— to it in the last hour. we shouldn't retend to it in the last hour. we shouldn't pretend that _ to it in the last hour. we shouldn't pretend that there _ to it in the last hour. we shouldn't pretend that there are _ to it in the last hour. we shouldn't pretend that there are not - to it in the last hour. we shouldn't pretend that there are not some . pretend that there are not some difficult — pretend that there are not some difficult choices ahead because that is what _ difficult choices ahead because that is what is _ difficult choices ahead because that is what is required to ensure that in the _ is what is required to ensure that in the long — is what is required to ensure that in the long term, we can do the things— in the long term, we can do the things that _ in the long term, we can do the things that will benefit people '5 finances — things that will benefit people '5 finances because if inflation gets out of— finances because if inflation gets out of control, that will not help anyone, — out of control, that will not help anyone, but i am confident that what the government will deliver on thursday— the government will deliver on thursday will be fair, compassionate, it will deal with the challenges we face and put us on a path to— challenges we face and put us on a path to recovery for the future. central — path to recovery for the future. central to — path to recovery for the future. central to rishi sunak's argument is central to rishi sunak�*s argument is that because he is willing to take on tough decisions on thursday, though spending cuts and tax rises, thatis though spending cuts and tax rises, that is why the international financial markets are looking to the uk more favourably. there is a political argument to be had about his particular choices. his argument is they have to be doing what they are doing in the aftermath of liz truss's experiment but the bottom line is what might be good for the

international markets could be very difficult for millions of households around the country. thank you. let's talk more about _ around the country. thank you. let's talk more about the _ around the country. thank you. let's talk more about the options - around the country. thank you. let's talk more about the options the - talk more about the options the chancellor and the government have. our business correspondent dharshini david is here. took us through what the options are. we are all told we will help to pay more tax but do not expect any pre—christmas treat in return. a lot of what will happen on thursday is about restoring the credibility of the government in financial markets, credibility that was lost in the wake of that mini budget and here is why. the government borrows to fund its spending every year to keep those borrowing costs low, it has to be seen to have a plan to reduce debt in the future. economists reckon that will take between 30 to

£70 billion to fill that so—called black hole in five years' time and much of that depends on how the economy first but it is a large sum. 0n the taxes side we could see various tax rates rise on things we earned or spent on but we could see changes in what is called stealth taxes. that is when for example the band at which you stop paying a higher rate of income tax doesn't rise even though your income is rising, so it may sound like a positive but actually it means you are liable for more tax. equally on the spending side, we already know schools, libraries, the police are all struggling with higher costs to make those budgets stretch but if the chancellor wants to save tens of billions of pounds, if he just doesn't increase their future budgets by the rate of inflation, that could save him the money but also mean you see cuts to services and it's harder to give staff pay rises as well. there could be helped

in the form of future help on energy bills post spring but brace yourself, it will be belt tightening for most of us come thursday. it will be painful at a time when we are already facing recession. the tax and spending plans announced in the autumn statement on thursday will affect the budgets of households across the uk. 0ur correspondent fiona lamdin has been to meet one family in bristol, who are already having to make difficult decisions every day about how to make ends meet. samuel and his boys live here on the 15th floor. samuel used to be a security guard, he has been signed off sick. today he is sorting his benefits. , , , ., ., benefits. this is the situation, vafious benefits. this is the situation, various lysander _ benefits. this is the situation, various lysander and - benefits. this is the situation, various lysander and myself, |
