lucy letby is accused of murdering. the uk will give france more money for increased 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. to turn this around. 0ur cooperation and collaboration with the french on the channel, on the uk coastline, on the french coastline is absolutely integral to ensuring that there is a robust barrier preventing people disembarking from the french beaches in the first place. under the deal overall funding will rise by £8 million per annum to 63 million. this, the government says, will enable it to boost the number of patrol officers by a0%, taking it to a total of 300. uk staff will also be embedded in french officers.

but this local mp says the deal does not go far enough. we have had joint controls, joint intelligence now for a number of years with the french, that is in tackling this issue. the only thing that will is making sure the boats are stopped in france before they get in the water and this agreement doesn't get as to where we need to be to tackle this urgent and serious crisis. labour leader sir keir starmer said the government needs to tackle the people smugglers, the source of the problem. most people look at this and say, there is more taxpayers cash being spent on the problem at the government is making, this has been going on very long time and the secretary home secretary has said the system is broken. they broke it. this is a step in the right direction but there is so much more that needs to be done.

for that part, the french authorities say they have managed to prevent 30,000 small boat journeys in the channel this year but the challenge in patrolling hundreds of miles of coastline is immense. in patrolling hundreds of miles richard galpin, bbc news. in patrolling hundreds of miles let's just head to indonesia. joe biden is about to speak. find let'sjust head to indonesia. joe biden is about to speak. and those seekin: to biden is about to speak. and those seeking to over _ biden is about to speak. and those seeking to overturn _ biden is about to speak. and those seeking to overturn the _ biden is about to speak. and those seeking to overturn the elections. | seeking to over turn the elections. there was a strong rejection of violence and voter intimidation. i have travelled this week and it has been clear how closely the world and our allies and competitors have all been following the elections at home. and what these elections showed is that there is a deep and unwavering commitment in america to

preserving and protecting and defending democracy. let me speak briefly about our agenda. in egypt and in cambodia and in indonesia, in this moment of great global challenges, from global inflation to the climate crisis, to russia's brutal war against ukraine, we are bringing together the broadest possible coalition of partners to deliver results. cop27 in egypt, i made it clear that due to our administration, we proceed to tackle the climate crisis. the united states will meet our ambitious targets under the paris agreement. and we are going to keep working with our partners to support the most vulnerable countries in building resilience to climate impacts and align global ambition with the 1.5 celsius goal. while supercharging our clean energy

transition. at the summit, i laid out a midland for working with our partners in the indo—pacific, to ensuring the future that it is free and open and prosperous, as well as secure. i met with our allies from australia, japan and the republic of korea, underscoring our commitment and strengthening cooperation among our allies to be shared —— meet shared threats to our security and their security. and let me... ijust met in person xijingping, of the people's republic of china. we had an open and candid conversation about our intentions and our priorities. it was clear, he was clear and i was clear, we will defend american interests and values, promote human rights act stand up for the international order

and working in lockstep with our allies and partners. we are going to compete vigorously, we are not looking for conflict, i am looking to manage this competition responsibly. and i want to make sure that every country abide by the international rules of the rotor so we discuss that. the one china policy has not changed, it has not changed. we oppose the unilateral changes to the status quo by either side and we are committed to maintaining peace and stability. it is also clear that we should be able to work together where we can to solve global challenges that require every nation to do its part. we discussed russia's aggression against ukraine and reassured our shared belief in the —— in that the use of uk weapons is unacceptable. and we will be continuing to keep the lines of communication open.

looking ahead at the 620 the lines of communication open. looking ahead at the g20 meetings tomorrow, we are going to be tackling the issues that meet —— matter to people here but also our allies and partners. that means tackling the suffering that the russian aggression has unleashed, notjust in ukraine, but people around the world, food insecurity, and strengthening the fundamentals of our global economy for everyone. support for debt relief, reforms for unilateral development banks. investments to bolster global health security and to make sure the world is better prepared for the next pandemic. the g20 has been an important forum for the world's largest economies to work together for the good of people everywhere. i am looking forward to our meetings tomorrow. let me close with this, on my first trip overseas last year, i said that america was back. back at home, back at the table and back to leading the world. in the year—and—a—half that has followed, we have showed exact what that

means. america is keeping its commitments, investing in our strength at home and working alongside our allies and partners and making real meaningful progress around the world and at this critical moment, no nation is better positioned to help the future we want than the united states of america and i am happy to take questions and i am told there are good to be four questions. i am not going to do ten from east —— each questionnaire. i will make that clear. wall streetjournal. you said you did not want competition to turn to conflict. based — competition to turn to conflict. based on — competition to turn to conflict. based on this meeting today, do you believe _ based on this meeting today, do you believe that a new cold war with china _ believe that a new cold war with china can — believe that a new cold war with china can be avoided and specifically on the issue of taiwan, you spoke — specifically on the issue of taiwan, you spoke about intentions, do you believe _

and politically to deal with the changing circumstances around the world. and i think that xi jingping... we agreed that we would set up a set of circumstances where on issues that were... we had to further resolve details, we agreed we would have our chief of staff, the appropriate cabinet members and others, sit and meet with one another to discuss the details of every issue that was raised and we raised a lot of issues. associated press. you met with xi jingping face—to—face after he had consolidated his power at home, so now you _ consolidated his power at home, so now you have met with him face—to—face, how do you assess his sort of— face—to—face, how do you assess his sort of posture towards the united

and so i don't get any sense that there is more or less confrontation. we were very blunt with one another about places where we disagreed, or where we were uncertain of each other�*s position and we agreed we would set up mechanisms whereby we would set up mechanisms whereby we would meet in detail with key people in each of our administrations to discuss how we can resolve it. or if they were not resolved, on what basis were they not resolved. sebastien smith. the afp. thank you very much, mr president. expose _ thank you very much, mr president. expose -- _ thank you very much, mr president. expose —— excuse me, i don't usually that cloudy — expose —— excuse me, idon't usually that cloudy is— expose —— excuse me, i don't usually that cloudy. is there a turning point — that cloudy. is there a turning point in — that cloudy. is there a turning point in the war in ukraine, where ukrainians— point in the war in ukraine, where ukrainians can pursue their ultimate

nothing about ukraine without ukraine, it is a decision ukraine has to make. i think you are going to see things slow down a bit because of the winter months and the inability to move as easily around the country. but i think it remains to see —— be seen what the outcome will be, except i am confident russia will not occupy or defend ukraine as they intended from the beginning. having trouble reading this. mr beginning. having trouble reading this. ~ , ., beginning. having trouble reading this. ~ , ., , ., this. mr president, a quick question on north korea. _ this. mr president, a quick question on north korea. it _ this. mr president, a quick question on north korea. it appears - this. mr president, a quick question on north korea. it appears poised l this. mr president, a quick question| on north korea. it appears poised to conduct _ on north korea. it appears poised to conduct a _ on north korea. it appears poised to conduct a new nuclear test. i am wondering — conduct a new nuclear test. i am wondering if you can talk about your specific _ wondering if you can talk about your specific discussions with president xi jingping specific discussions with president xijingping on specific discussions with president xi jingping on that. what extent does _ xi jingping on that. what extent does china have the ability to talk

difficult to determine whether or not china has the capacity... i am confident china is not looking for north korea to engage in further escalator remains because i made it clear from the beginning and last year as well that we will do what is needed to defend our capacity, to defend ourselves and our allies, south korea, as well as japan, and we would be more up in the face of china, but it would not be because of china, it would be because of what was going on in north korea. and again, on a number of these issues, we have put together teams of national security advisers and others, they will be engaging with their counterparts in china and we are not going to be able to work everything out and i am not

suggesting everybody is going to go away with everything in agreement, but i do not believe there is a need for concern, as one of you raised the legitimate question, a new cold war, and i think... iwill conclude by saying it this way, i want to be clear and be clear with all leaders but especially with xi jingping that i mean what i say and i say what i mean. so there is no misunderstanding. that is the biggest concern i have is the misunderstanding about intentions or actions on each of our parts. how long did that meeting last? three and a half hours. so we covered an awful lot of territory. and i must say that he was as straightforward as he has been with me in the past. and i think that we understand one another, which is the most important

thing. i guess all of you are going swimming from here. it is not far. i don't think they can expect much of anything other than we are going to maintain our position. i am not going to get into any other questions. i don't think... i don't think there are enough votes, unless something unusual happens in the house. i think it'll very close any house. i think it'll very close any house. . ~' house. i think it'll very close any house. . ~ , house. i think it'll very close any house. ., , ., ~ house. thank you, everybody. thank ou.joe house. thank you, everybody. thank yom joe biden _ house. thank you, everybody. thank you. joe biden addressing _ house. thank you, everybody. thank you. joe biden addressing reportersl you. joe biden addressing reporters in bali in indonesia, _ you. joe biden addressing reporters in bali in indonesia, which - you. joe biden addressing reporters in bali in indonesia, which is- you. joe biden addressing reporters in bali in indonesia, which is where l in bali in indonesia, which is where the 620 in bali in indonesia, which is where the g20 meeting is taking place, but in particular, reporters keen to hear how his meeting went with the chinese leader, xijingping, the first time that they have held

face—to—face meetings sincejoe biden became the president of the united states. joe biden said that it had been a very direct and straightforward conversation, that xi jingping straightforward conversation, that xijingping was his usual direct south. speaking about using the g20 summit, joe biden said it was important we bring together a broad coalition against a great global... all the great global challenges, including climate change, a lot of questions that we heard were about the relationship between china and the relationship between china and the united states, which has soured somewhat in recent times. of course, theissue somewhat in recent times. of course, the issue that is really at the heart of all of this is iwan. taiwan regards itself as a distinct entity from china but the hours in beijing think that taiwan's is not a south rhode island, that it should be and is part of its territory and so these two leaders are trying to

establish whether red lines are regarding taiwan. but when asked whetherjoe biden thought that this could be the start of a new cold war, he said no, there is no need for that at all. the us is ready to play. he said they talked for three and a half hours, a wide—ranging number of subjects, understandably, that they spoke about, but clearly, efforts being made to present a more united front than you might have expected, given the nature of the relationships between the two countries. jonathan head joins us now. we have to wade through some of the diplomatic language but what do you think they have achieved with this face—to—face meeting? i think they have achieved with this face-to-face meeting?— face-to-face meeting? i think holdinu face-to-face meeting? i think holding it _ face-to-face meeting? i think holding it was _ face-to-face meeting? i think holding it was incredibly - face-to-face meeting? i think- holding it was incredibly important. it was difficult to organise, the officials thought the climate between the countries was too bad to risk it. they were able to use the

full three hours and go beyond that suggests they were determined to cover all of the areas where they disagree and explore areas where they need to cooperate, there needs to be some good news in this relationship and there were no headlines coming out of that but they have agreed they will be designating senior officials to maintaining the relationship at a better pitch than we have seen it for the rest of this year. joe biden said he was going to be blunt, that is a trading —— trademarking his dealings with foreign leaders. and he did not mince his words on any of the issues. taiwan, ukraine, a whole range of others, where they disagree with china. both sides stressed very much this need to be responsible in their relationship, to stop it deteriorating. xijingping also deteriorating. xi jingping also cited deteriorating. xijingping also cited economic rivalry as an area that they should not let get out of hand. i think that was a reference to the sanctions the us has been applying to things like technology components and also stated that he did not accept this narrative that

joe biden has really adopted of democracy versus authoritarianism as the way in which the world should be run. but it was an expression of blunt views held by both sides, wanting to hear each site, but to present to the world the fact they were talking to each other. i think anyone who watched this will be encouraged thatjoe biden's language in his press conference was businesslike, no affection for xi jingping. businesslike, no affection for xi jingping, who he has met many times before, he is keeping expectations quite modest. before, he is keeping expectations quite modest-— before, he is keeping expectations uuite modest. , , . ., quite modest. yes, but it may change do ou quite modest. yes, but it may change do you think — quite modest. yes, but it may change do you think the _ quite modest. yes, but it may change do you think the way _ quite modest. yes, but it may change do you think the way that _ quite modest. yes, but it may change do you think the way that these - do you think the way that these nations interact with each other over taiwan in particular? we did see behaviour earlier in the year which meant that tensions escalated. i think taiwan is the most difficult issue. it is one where xi jingping

issue. it is one where xi jingping is a far more nationalist leaders and previous chinese leaders and also has a much more assertive foreign policy and has made... emphasising taiwan as part of china a core part of the way he presents himself. he is deeply suspicious of what the americans are doing. the chinese have accused the americans of encouraging taiwan to think about independence. joe biden stressed that the policy has not changed but i do not think they can agree on taiwan. the americans are still deeply worried that at some point xi jingping has plans to make a military move against taiwan and if that happened, the us would react and that'll be a problem. joe biden says does not believe that is imminent. it is not a problem they are confronting for now.— imminent. it is not a problem they are confronting for now. thank you very much- — very much. a new deal between the uk and france to try to stop people crossing the channel in small boats has been struck.

of all asylum claims made by people who cross the channel last year by boat have now been processed. and thatis boat have now been processed. and that is what has led to a lot of criticism from people saying that really, that backlog needs to be dealt with a lot quicker. for groups that are supporting migrants, they say that one solution is dealing with asylum claims abroad before people come to the uk, but the government says that is not a solution. so really, et question, at measure of successful the government, will also be how quickly will asylum claims be processed now? and the home office has said earlier today that next year, they are hoping to work more with this ranch to tackle this issue. for hoping to work more with this ranch to tackle this issue.— to tackle this issue. for the moment. — to tackle this issue. for the moment, thank _ to tackle this issue. for the moment, thank you - to tackle this issue. for the moment, thank you very i to tackle this issue. for the - moment, thank you very much.

police to meet with the chief constable and student officers where a number of topics were discussed including the delivery of operation deter, and i'm always keen to discuss interventions that the chief constable and local partners believed to be effective in reducing knife crime. the believed to be effective in reducing knife crime-— knife crime. the police and crime commissioner _ knife crime. the police and crime commissioner for _ knife crime. the police and crime commissioner for thames valley | commissioner for thames valley matthew barber introduced operation deter is a zero tolerance approach to knife crime and it started in milton keynes and is being rolled out in other areas. it is already delivering some encouraging signs and reducing like i ask my right honourable friend to encourage other forces in the country to repeat this in their areas? i forces in the country to repeat this in their areas?— forces in the country to repeat this in their areas? i have met with the excellent police _ in their areas? i have met with the excellent police and _ in their areas? i have met with the excellent police and crime - excellent police and crime commissioner to whom he refers on two occasions now, maybe even more, and i really welcome the initiatives that are showing measurable impacts against violent crime. i'm

determined those interventions are proven to work and that they are delivered across the forces and i'm also a big supporter of violence reduction units and i'm very keen to look at the verified results of operation deter along side all other innovative approaches and i'm clear that all options should be explored and we should support those operations that work.- and we should support those operations that work. thank you, mr s-eaker. operations that work. thank you, mr speaker- the — operations that work. thank you, mr speaker. the home _ operations that work. thank you, mr speaker. the home secretary i operations that work. thank you, mr speaker. the home secretary said i operations that work. thank you, mr i speaker. the home secretary said the public... sorry. ih speaker. the home secretary said the public- -- sorry-— public... sorry. in answer to your question. — public... sorry. in answer to your question. hate — public... sorry. in answer to your question, hate crime _ public... sorry. in answer to your question, hate crime is _ public... sorry. in answer to your question, hate crime is the i public... sorry. in answer to your i question, hate crime is the scourge on communities across the country and we expect the police to fully investigate these hateful attacks and make sure the cowards who commit their midfield the full force of the law. . ~' , ., ~ their midfield the full force of the law. thank you, mr speaker, once aaain. law. thank you, mr speaker, once again- the — law. thank you, mr speaker, once again. the home _ law. thank you, mr speaker, once again. the home secretary - law. thank you, mr speaker, once again. the home secretary said i law. thank you, mr speaker, once i again. the home secretary said that the public won't be pleased to be

hatred. we have provided extra money over £4 million, between 2018 and 2022 to combat anti—muslim hatred and i also remind him that in addition, the home office allocated 24.5 million to protect mosques and muslim faith schools through our security funding scheme, in may 20 -- 2022 security funding scheme, in may 20 —— 2022 and a new scheme will also be delivered this year. this government is thoroughly committed to stamp out this evil crime.- to stamp out this evil crime. number four mr speaker. _ to stamp out this evil crime. number four mr speaker. thank _ to stamp out this evil crime. number four mr speaker. thank you. - to stamp out this evil crime. number four mr speaker. thank you. the i four mr speaker. thank you. the independent _ four mr speaker. thank you. the independent police _ four mr speaker. thank you. the | independent police renumeration review body makes recommendations to the government on the pay and allowances for police officers and in july we allowances for police officers and injuly we announce that allowances for police officers and in july we announce that we allowances for police officers and injuly we announce that we had accepted the review body's recommendation to award a consolidated increase of £1900 at all pay points with effect from the

when it comes to increasing the numbers of police officers on the front line fighting crime and standing upfor front line fighting crime and standing up for victims, something that labour has opposed at every opportunity, and may i make a humble request, may he give up some of his precious time to advise on the current mayor of london who is failing on fighting crime, having seen a 9% increase in crime in london. he really could take some advice from his predecessor. thank ou. new advice from his predecessor. thank you. new statistics _ advice from his predecessor. thank you. new statistics published i advice from his predecessor. triag�*ia; you. new statistics published today reveals that the mini budget cost even more than we first thought. a staggering £30 billion. this comes on top of 12 years of austerity which has seen real terms pay cut for police and staff and thousands ofjobs lost and prosecutions plummeted. the home secretary was in the cabinet and the policing minister was number two in the treasury at the time of the mini

budget, will they both now apologise to our pleas for the damage they have done? —— our police. the have done? -- our police. the government is _ have done? -- our police. the government is clear _ have done? —— our police. the government is clear that policing must have a modern pay structure that recognises and rewards skills and competence rather than time served and it is in line with that approach that the chief constables had the discretion to pay an officer starting salary between £22,566 and £26,682 depending on qualifications and experience and the settlement is fair and we and experience and the settlement is fairand we want and experience and the settlement is fair and we want the police officers to be empowered and strong in the fight against crime.— to be empowered and strong in the fight against crime. question number five, camilla — fight against crime. question number five. camilla mr _ fight against crime. question number five, camilla mr speaker. _ fight against crime. question number five, camilla mr speaker. -- - five, camilla mr speaker. —— question numberfive, mr speaker. question number five, mr speaker. the question numberfive, mr speaker. the government is determined to reduce neighbourhood crime and i'm pleased to report that since 2019 neighbourhood crime has reduced by around 20%. it is up to chief constables to decide on their level of pcs oh officers that they may

choose to recruit but the house will be aware that they are in the process of hiring an extra 20,000 police officers after which we will have a record number of uniformed officers serving.— officers serving. thank you. police community — officers serving. thank you. police community sopport _ officers serving. thank you. police community support officers i officers serving. thank you. police community support officers have i officers serving. thank you. police community support officers have a vital role to play in tackling neighbourhood crime and also in building trust and confidence in policing at community level because they are often the most visible officers to our communities. can the minister therefore confirm how many fewer officers assigned to neighbourhood roles there are in england and wales today than there were in 2010? and how long he expects it to take until police officer and staff numbers in neighbourhood roles reach that same number again? neighbourhood roles reach that same numberagain?i neighbourhood roles reach that same number again?— number again? i can confirm as i said that neighbourhood - number again? i can confirm as i said that neighbourhood crime i number again? i can confirm as i said that neighbourhood crime is about 20% lower than it was in 2019 and i can confirm that after these 20,000 officers have been recruited in april next year, we will have a

record number of uniformed officers serving in this country and i can confirm that the metropolitan police area which includes her constituency and mine and the shadow police minister is, we are already at a record number of uniformed officers. pcs ohs play a vital role in london's safer neighbourhood teams, and these perform a vital function. will the minister asked the mayor of london five years starving areas like barnet in tackling crime and anti—social behaviour? i like barnet in tackling crime and anti-social behaviour?— like barnet in tackling crime and anti-social behaviour? i think my riaht anti-social behaviour? i think my right honourable _ anti-social behaviour? i think my right honourable friend _ anti-social behaviour? i think my right honourable friend asks i anti-social behaviour? i think my right honourable friend asks a i anti-social behaviour? i think my i right honourable friend asks a very good question, because as i said already, the metropolitan police already, the metropolitan police already has more uniformed officers thanit already has more uniformed officers than it has ever had at any point in its history. in the current financial year, they've had a funding increase of £170 million compare to last year, so i think my

metropolitan police officer shifts have been lost as a result of having to police these outrageous and unnecessary protests. that is a matter of concern and it is why it is so important that we see an end to these protests as quickly as possible. mr to these protests as quickly as -ossible. ~ ,,, ., ,, to these protests as quickly as -ossible. ~ , ., , possible. mr speaker, i usually get very positive _ possible. mr speaker, i usually get very positive feedback _ possible. mr speaker, i usually get very positive feedback about i very positive feedback about chelmsford night life, but in recent weeks there has been a flurry of e—mails and comments on social media about suspected spiking incidents at one establishment. i have been in touch with our excellent city centre policing team, part of the hundreds more police we have in essex in the past five years, but can my right honourable friend join me in encouraging all those who think they may have been victims of spiking to come forward and report these incidents to the police so that the perpetrators can be caught and held to account? i perpetrators can be caught and held to account? ~ , to account? i think my right honourable _ to account? i think my right honourable friend _ to account? i think my right honourable friend is - to account? i think my right honourable friend is making j to account? i think my right i honourable friend is making an extremely important point. i can

the mother of identical twin boys. ms letby is accused of murdering one of the twin boys and attempting to murder the other. ms letby, has been charged with murdering seven babies and attempting to murder 10 others at the hospital between 2015 and 2016. she denies 22 charges. judith moritz has been in court this morning. evidence this morning from the mother of twins who were born prematurely injuly mother of twins who were born prematurely in july 2015, 29 mother of twins who were born prematurely injuly 2015, 29 weeks gestation, so they were premature and therefore patients in the neonatal unit at the countess of chester hospital. the court order means we cannot identify them but we are describing them as babies e and f. are describing them as babies e and f, and their mother was a patient in the postnatal ward at the hospital. 0ne the postnatal ward at the hospital. one evening, five days after they were born, she went down to the neonatal unit to take some breastmilk she had expressed for their feeds, breastmilk she had expressed for theirfeeds, and she breastmilk she had expressed for their feeds, and she talked about their feeds, and she talked about the moment that i should approach

the moment that i should approach the unit she could hear screaming. i could hear my son crying and it was like nothing i had heard before. i walked over to the incubator to see he had blood around his mouth and i panicked, i panicked because i knew there was something wrong. it was a sound, she said, that shouldn't have come from a tiny baby. i cannot describe it. it was horrendous. more of a screen than a cry and she said as she went into the room the only person in that section of the unit was lucy b, the only person in that room but she was not at the incubator, she was across the room at the nurse's workstation and the mother described how she had asked lucy letby what was wrong, and she said it was most likely that the feed tube had been irritating the baby and that had caused a blood and she said she should go back to the postnatal ward, she said she should go back to the postnatalward, nothing she said she should go back to the postnatal ward, nothing to worry about and we will call you if there is a problem. the court heard that later that night that the baby had

died despite efforts to resuscitate him. and the mother said when she was asked why she had gone back up to the ward, she said she had she had done so because she trusted the authority of lucy letby. she denies murdering baby e, and trying to murdering baby e, and trying to murder his twin brother the following day and denies offences alleged against 15 other babies. the trial continues. the cost of living crisis is beginning to bite. in a rare interview, the boss of primark has spoken to our business correspondence about what they are doing to keep customers coming through the doors. next, please! you don't see queues like this in many shops these days. it is the budget chain, where baskets are filled to the brim. and where some shoppers are now spending to save. to be honest, i bought stuff to keep me warm in the flat because it's really cold in my flat at the moment. i've got storage heaters and they cost a fortune. so i've just been upstairs and got warm jackets,

like hoodies and things like that just to wear, really. just to add a bit of layer and a bit of warmth. freezing. no heating on. costs too much, so we've got our dad in a care home and stuff so we just can't afford it. we are just buying warm bits. warm bits? yeah, we'll alljust wrap up nice and warm. we've got a great selection. meet the boss of primark, ready for a busy christmas. are people trading down to primark? barbers, nail bars. we are, i think, the new department store.

they pick up their click and collect... don't you think that fast, cheap fashion is going to reach a tipping point pretty soon, that it's just not sustainable? we have worked so hard and continue to work hard on ensuring we are improving the quality and the durability of our clothing. we do not want customers to buy something and then discard it. we want them to buy, love, and keep it in their wardrobe, hand it down to their friends. no holding back here. christmas shopping has started early on the high street. are you spending a bit less this christmas, then? probably not, no. working more. and we are looking for the best possible deals. i think this is going to be a massively promotional christmas. black friday is early, partly because that is the retailers

want to get them going, partly because the world cup is coming and retailers don't know how that is going to play out. but these people are looking for really good prices and if they don't find them, they won't be buying products. and unlike last year, there's plenty of stock retailers really need to shift. emma simpson, bbc news, manchester. the bbc is celebrating the 100th anniversary of its first official bbc broadcast — a news bulletin from london. it included a court report from the old bailey, details of disruption caused by fog in the capital, and the billiards scores. 0ur correspondent david sillito is here. nothing, nothing from the early 19205, nothing, nothing from the early 1920s, however, we do have a taste of what the beginning may have sounded like, because arthur burrows, director of programmes, re—recorded the opening call sound. the radio station was to l0, the original broadcasting station. let's listen to the sound of arthur. to l0

marconi house london calling. 2l0, marconi house london calling. 2l0, marconi house, london calling. and thatis marconi house, london calling. and that is arthur, who was also the director of programmes, the main news reader, and also uncle arthur, who did some of the children's programming. there were about four orfive programming. there were about four or five people employed programming. there were about four orfive people employed by programming. there were about four or five people employed by the programming. there were about four orfive people employed by the bbc in london at that time, it was a tiny organisation, about 30,000 people might have had a chance to listen in, but what we have to remember is, this was not the only bbc on that day. and there's been lots of new research done about the bbc service coming out of manchester, and officially started the next day, but research shows that actually they were broadcasting on this day as well and the lady with the magic carpet was doing a children's programme on that day, and when they go through the

records, a lot of the first come from these bbc stations, from manchester, the first variety, and regular weather forecast comes from manchester. the first radio satire, archie's priceless piffle. it is an image of london on the bbc but it was broader than that, and the first bulletin, the billiard scores and the weather, foggy.— bulletin, the billiard scores and the weather, foggy. much like it has been today in _ the weather, foggy. much like it has been today in fact. _ some relatively quiet weather out there to start today albeit with rain in western areas and thick fog across eastern spots where it will remain grey and misty through the afternoon. quiet is of the word to sum up the rev for the rest of the week with low pressure in control, driving through rain bearing fronts, heavy at times, the wind will strengthen and gales in places and instead of the mild air coming from south, the air around the low pressure from the west in the

atlantic comes into us and that means temperatures heading down closer to what we expect for this time of year so it will feel cooler. porthmadog yesterday was 21 degrees, but by thursday or friday, 11 degrees. some rain in western scotland, nudging from wales towards the west midlands and central and southern england as it goes east to the rain band and a few brighter skies and staying grey and misty and are dry and bright afternoon for northern ireland and still on the mile side out there today. the first area rain edging north—east and weakening overnight with heavy rain following into northern ireland, into wales, central and southern scotland and strengthening winds as well. gail is developing around southern and western coasts and enough rain to bring some may be local flooding enough rain to bring some may be localflooding issues enough rain to bring some may be local flooding issues and enough rain to bring some may be localflooding issues and difficult travel conditions for parts of south wales and southern england as we start the day tomorrow. as the rain advances to areas that begin dry in

the east and north—east, into scotland it is angus, perth, kinross, aberdeenshire that could seek flooding issues lasting longer during tuesday but behind it many places brighten up there will be blustery showers and it will stay windy out there. as we go into wednesday, very windy in the northern isles, sunny spells and showers after early, patchy fog clears away and another sister moves into the south—west and you can see the rain arriving and also stronger winds as well, so gales through the english channel coast as we end wednesday and go into thursday, developing through the north sea coast and on thursday quite stormy in the northern isles with low pressure and areas of rain and showers around it. fewer showers and more in the way operator weather and lighter winds as we see out the week friday. and as the wind drops out, that will lead to frost on saturday morning and as the weekend goes on, then the return of wet and windy weather again.

this is bbc news. the headlines... the uk will pay france millions of pounds more for increased patrols on french beaches to prevent people crossing the channel in small boats. 0ur cooperation and collaboration with the french on the channel, on the uk coastline, on the french coastline, is absolutely integral. the prime minister claims it —— expected tax rises and spending cuts have already stabilised financial markets. joe biden says there will be no new cold war with china. brute joe biden says there will be no new cold war with china.— joe biden says there will be no new cold war with china. we discuss the russian aggression _ cold war with china. we discuss the russian aggression against - cold war with china. we discuss the j russian aggression against ukraine, reassured our belief that the use of

nuclear weapons is unacceptable. the comments come as president zelensky visits the southern city of kherson to celebrate its liberation after the withdrawal of russian troops. a screening programme aimed at improving the diagnosis and management of type one diabetes in the uk has been launched today. and how fast can you solve a rubik's cube? we'll speak to the �*speed cuber�* that's set a new world record. good afternoon. 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 around. there is no quick fix, no silver bullet. 0ur cooperation and collaboration with the french on the channel, on the uk coastline, on the french coastline is absolutely integral to ensuring that there is a robust barrier preventing people disembarking

from the french beaches in the first place. under the deal overall funding will rise by £8 million per annum to 63 million. this, the government says, will enable it to boost the number of patrol officers by 40%, taking it to a total of 300. uk staff will also be embedded in french offices. but this local mp says the deal does not go far enough. we have had joint controls, joint intelligence now for a number of years with the french, that isn't tackling this issue. the only thing that will is making sure the boats are stopped in france before they get in the water and this agreement doesn't get us to where we need to be to tackle this urgent and serious crisis. labour leader sir keir starmer said the government needs to tackle the people smugglers, the source of the problem.

most people look at this and say, there is more taxpayer�* cash being spent on the problem at the government is making, this has been going on very long time and the home secretary has said the system is broken. they broke it. this is a step in the right direction but there is so much more that needs to be done. for their part, the french authorities say they have managed to prevent 30,000 small boat journeys in the channel this year but the challenge in patrolling hundreds of miles of coastline is immense. richard galpin, bbc news. 0ur political correspondent, helen catt, is in westminster. how long has this deal taken to broker? . . how long has this deal taken to broker? , , ., , ., broker? this is the latest in a series of— broker? this is the latest in a series of deals, _ broker? this is the latest in a series of deals, and - broker? this is the latest in a series of deals, and ongoing l series of deals, and ongoing arrangement that we have had between the uk and france. this is the latest instalment of that, if you like, which puts in more money for

this financial year, another £8 million towards putting in some more of those things that you have just heard about in that piece, things about more drone technology, more police physically patrolling the beachesin police physically patrolling the beaches in northern france, and then also this development at downing street say is significant, the first time they will have uk officials in commands and control centres with the french and french officials in the french and french officials in the uk and they say that is significant. but there are also doubts, as you heard from the dover mp, about how effective that'll be, whether it is just doing more of a scene that we have seen already. what are french police supposed to do with the people they might stop? this has been the big question because part of the argument and question as to whether this will be effective is what happens to people who are stopped from crossing, what

happens then? what happens next question mark are they free to try again? there does not seem to be a lot of clarity about whether there would be anything that would stop them, simplyjust trying again. one of the question of this deal is you have lots of people... lots of police trying to stop the crossings but what happens with the people once they have stopped them? there is also money going in for other centres but that is certainly a key query about this.— query about this. thank you very much for the _ query about this. thank you very much for the moment. - let's speak to lucy moreton, spokesperson for the isu, the trade union of uk border and immigration officials. thank you forjoining us on bbc news channel. what is your reaction to this latest part of the deal. there is lots of high _ this latest part of the deal. there is lots of high phrases _ this latest part of the deal. there is lots of high phrases and - is lots of high phrases and aspirational statements but very little detail behind it. as your previous correspondent said, part of

the heart of this is what we do, what are the french do, with the migrants once they detect them? there is one line in the press release for that which suggest that maybe some of the uk many is going to go towards paying france to deal with those individuals, but it is just one line and it could be read in a different way. when the french talk about having disrupted 30,000 crossings in the last year, if a third of those were individuals who have done it more than once, then actually the true number of crossings intercepted is much lower. when these individuals are intercepted, if the frenchjust release them to try again, which is what happens now, then anything else that we do is reallyjust tinkering around the edges. that we do is really 'ust tinkering around the edges._ that we do is really 'ust tinkering around the edges. what are police in france entitled _ around the edges. what are police in france entitled to _ around the edges. what are police in france entitled to do? _ around the edges. what are police in france entitled to do? it _ around the edges. what are police in france entitled to do? it is _ around the edges. what are police in france entitled to do? it is one i france entitled to do? it is one thing to arrest somebody if you think they are a trafficker and engaging in human trafficking, but

it is another if it is someone just trying to reach the uk? has it is another if it is someone 'ust trying to reach the uk?i it is another if it is someone 'ust trying to reach the uk? as far as i know, it trying to reach the uk? as far as i know. it is — trying to reach the uk? as far as i know. it is rrot — trying to reach the uk? as far as i know, it is not a _ trying to reach the uk? as far as i know, it is not a criminal- trying to reach the uk? as far as i know, it is not a criminal offencel know, it is not a criminal offence to try and reach the uk on a small boat but if you do not have legal status to be in any country, their border laws allow the police or border laws allow the police or border forces, border laws allow the police or borderforces, depending on the situation that you are in, to make inquiries as to your eligibility to be in our country and if you are not eligible to be in our country, to then deal with you according to the laws of that country. these individuals are not legally in france either. and it is that element of it that the french are not really grappling with. llilaihat not really grappling with. what extra... what _ not really grappling with. what extra... what easing _ not really grappling with. what extra. .. what easing of- not really grappling with. what extra... what easing of pressure might this deal bring to your members? shat might this deal bring to your members?— might this deal bring to your members? . , , ., , , members? at this stage, it is very earl to members? at this stage, it is very early to tell- _ members? at this stage, it is very early to tell. it _ members? at this stage, it is very early to tell. it might _ members? at this stage, it is very early to tell. it might be _ members? at this stage, it is very early to tell. it might be that i members? at this stage, it is very early to tell. it might be that the i early to tell. it might be that the drones comedy night site cameras, the additional individuals on patrol, another 100 officers the uk is painful to go on patrol, that will have some level of deterrent effect but what we know from the

last 20 years of dealing with this is that you reinforce the seal and —— in one area and then it's mp moves somewhere else. if we do succeed in making it too difficult to set sail from the beaches around calais, they are... these individuals and the criminals who feed this situation will not simply turn around and say, ok, it is difficult, iwill turn around and say, ok, it is difficult, i will go home now, they just move down the coast of it and france has a lot of coastline. yes. france has a lot of coastline. yes, 175 kilometres, _ france has a lot of coastline. yes, 175 kilometres, i _ france has a lot of coastline. yes, 175 kilometres, i think. _ france has a lot of coastline. yes, 175 kilometres, i think. the i france has a lot of coastline. yes, 175 kilometres, i think. the mayor of the region when we spoke to him earlier on told us it is causing resentment in his part of france because if you have police officers on the beaches, they are not available to do other things. how much sympathy do you have with that? absolutely and the uk spends a great deal of money on other countries asking them to help with the situation with migration but the money is not being spent in the uk to reduce the pull factor. when your

journey here will buy you something like five to eight years in this country whilst the system, the initial asylum decision and then the appeal is associated with that, all go through, that is going to be worth your effort to make that journey. if we resource the systems in the uk so we could make that decision ideally in months, then you reduce that draw factor to the uk massively, not only easing small boat migration, breaking the smugglers' model, easing the resentment of the french, which i completely understand.— resentment of the french, which i completely understand. thank you ve much completely understand. thank you very much for— completely understand. thank you very much for your _ completely understand. thank you very much for your time _ completely understand. thank you very much for your time this i very much for your time this afternoon. us presidentjoe biden has been speaking about his first face—to—face talks with chinese leader, xijinping. the meeting comes at a time of heightened tensions between the countries. joe biden said on xi jinping, i

tensions between the countries. joe biden said on xijinping, i think tensions between the countries. joe biden said on xi jinping, i think we understand each other. here is a little of what he had to say. he was clear, i little of what he had to say. he was clear. i was — little of what he had to say. he was clear, i was clear, _ little of what he had to say. he was clear, i was clear, we _ little of what he had to say. he was clear, i was clear, we will - little of what he had to say. he was clear, i was clear, we will defend . clear, i was clear, we will defend american values, and stand up for the international order in lockstep with our allies and partners. we are going to compete but i'm not looking for conflict. i want to make sure, make sure that every country abide by the rules of the road. our one china policy has not changed. it has not changed. we oppose unilateral changes in the status quo by either side and we are committed to maintaining the pieces to building. it is also clear that china and the united states should be able to work together where we can to solve global challenges and that requires every nation to do its part. we discuss russian aggression against ukraine and reaffirmed our shed belief in the threat where the use

of nuclear weapons is unacceptable and i asked that the secretary travelled to china and keeping the communication lines open between the two countries. earlier, i spoke to our south east asia correspondent, jonathan head, who's in bali and i asked him what president biden and the chinese leader, xijinping. have achieved in this face to face meeting. i think holding it was incredibly important. it was difficult to organise, the officials thought the climate between the countries was too bad to risk it. they were able to use the full three hours and go beyond that suggests they were determined to cover all of the areas where they disagree and explore areas where they need to cooperate, there needs to be some good news in this relationship and there were no headlines coming out of that but they have agreed they will be designating senior officials to maintaining the relationship at a better pitch than we have seen it for the rest of this year.

joe biden said he was going to be blunt, that is a trademark in his dealings with foreign leaders. and he did not mince his words on any of the issues. taiwan, ukraine, a whole range of others, where they disagree with china. both sides stressed very much this need to be responsible in their relationship, to stop it deteriorating. xijinping also cited economic rivalry as an area that they should not let get out of hand. i think that was a reference to the sanctions the us has been applying to things like technology components and also stated that he did not accept this narrative thatjoe biden has really adopted of democracy versus authoritarianism as the way in which the world should be run. but it was an expression of blunt views held by both sides, wanting to hear each site, but to present to the world the fact they were talking to each other. language in his press conference was businesslike, no affection for xijinping,

who he has met many times before, he is keeping expectations quite modest. yes, but it may change, do you think, the way that these nations interact with each other over taiwan in particular? we did see behaviour earlier in the year which meant that tensions escalated. i think taiwan is the most difficult issue. it is one where xi jinping is a far more nationalist leaders and previous chinese leaders and also has a much more assertive foreign policy and has made... emphasising taiwan as part of china a core part of the way he presents himself. he is deeply suspicious of what the americans are doing. the chinese have accused the americans of encouraging taiwan to think about independence. joe biden stressed that the policy has not changed but i do not think they can agree on taiwan.

the americans are still deeply worried that at some point xijinping has plans to make a military move against taiwan and if that happened, the us would react and that'll be a problem. joe biden says does not believe that is imminent. it is not a problem they are confronting for now. thank you very much. our political editor, chris mason, is also in bali for that meeting of 620 leaders which includes the prime minister rishi sunak who's been speaking to broadcasters this lunchtime. hello from bali, where world leaders from eg 20 are gathering. rishi sunak landed here in the last hour, straight into his first bilateral, as it is known, one—on—one meeting with a fellow world leader, justin trudeau of canada, the person he was meeting. it is mid evening now, so tomorrow morning, the meetings again

will resume. one of the main sessions of the g20, where all of the leaders, the most senior representatives from the countries that are here gather, there will be a chance for the first time since the outbreak of the war in ukraine for british prime minister to directly condemn russian actions to a senior russian figure. sergei lavrov, the russian foreign minister is here. president putin is not. the broader conversation that will happen at this summit is absently focused on the economy. the consequences of the war in ukraine, the consequences of the pandemic. the world economy is trying to grapple with two big shocks that have had a devastating impact in so many parts of the world and for rishi sunak, that focus on the international stage, rishi sunak, that focus on the internationalstage, of rishi sunak, that focus on the international stage, of problems shared, if you like, amongst world leaders, whilst at the same time keeping an eye on what is going on back home ahead of the autumn statement, the budget that is taking

place on thursday and that expectation as has been said for weeks now, they are saying it will be difficult, there will be spending cuts and tax rises. many will see it as a bad news barrett. shortly after he got off the plane, rishi sunak talked to beth rigby of sky news. she was asking questions on behalf of all of the uk broadcasters. we should not _ of all of the uk broadcasters. we should not pretend that there aren't some _ should not pretend that there aren't some difficult choices ahead because that is_ some difficult choices ahead because that is what is required to ensure that is what is required to ensure that in_ that is what is required to ensure that in the — that is what is required to ensure that in the long—term, we candle the things— that in the long—term, we candle the things that _ that in the long—term, we candle the things that will benefit people are possibly— things that will benefit people are possibly as finances because if inflation — possibly as finances because if inflation gets out of control, it will not — inflation gets out of control, it will not help anyone, if interest rates _ will not help anyone, if interest rates keep spiralling, that will not help anyone, but i am confident that what the _ help anyone, but i am confident that what the government will deliver on thursday _ what the government will deliver on thursday will be fair and compassionate and 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. the g20 is path to recovery for the future. the 620 is an path to recovery for the future. ina 620 is an economic forum. path to recovery for the future. iua 620 is an economic forum. it path to recovery for the future. iia 620 is an economic forum. it was originally devised after the end of

the financial crisis in asia in the late 19905 and became a the financial crisis in asia in the late19905 and became a more important forum in the wake of the international financial crisis in 2007 and 2008. it's very reason for existed —— existing i5 2007 and 2008. it's very reason for existed —— existing is to talk about economic calamity if you like on a global stage because you have so many leaders from so many of the big economies gathering and talking. what is awkward about this forum is that beyond having big economies, the members are very, very different in their broader worldview, so reaching agreement is very difficult, not least in this instance because russia is here but can they even agreed to a final set of conclusions at the end of the summit question of the expectation from diplomats is that will be very difficult because they won't be able to agree on language that they can all sign up to as far as condemning russia is concerned. nonetheless, the british delegation still think it is a worthwhile trip. the foreign

policy is tilted towards this region, the indo—pacific, after the uk left the european union, and it is a chance already sooner, still relatively new in post as prime minister, to meet plenty of other leaders, who he has not yet met face—to—face. the headlines on bbc news... the uk will pay france millions of pounds more for increased patrols on french beaches to prevent people crossing the channel in small boats. the prime minister claims expected tax rises and spending cuts have already stabilised financial markets. a screening programme aimed at improving the diagnosis and management of type 1 diabetes in the uk is being launched today. president zelensky of ukraine has visited the southern city of kherson, just days after his troops recaptured it following russia's withdrawal. president zelensky addressed some of his soldiers, and sang the national anthem as the ukrainian flag was raised over the city. kherson was taken by russia early on in the war and its recapture

by ukraine is a major strategic blow for the kremlin. catherine byaruhanga reports from the ukrainian capital, kyiv. scenes that were unimaginable just a few weeks ago. president volodymyr zelensky singing the national anthem as the ukrainian flag is raised once again in front of the regional administrative building. he came to show support to the people here, who have lived under russian occupation for eight months, and to send a message it is the beginning of the end of the war. you see our strong army, they are step—by—step coming to our country, to all of the occupied territories.

a hero's welcome. but from people who still have no power, water, medicines, and even bread. it will be a huge task to get basic services back to kherson, especially because shelling and artillery fire continues around the city. russian forces are just a few kilometres away across the dnipro river. president zelensky is seizing the moment to showcase ukraine's latest success on the battlefield. victories are hard to come by in this brutal war. catherine byaruhanga, bbc news. a meeting is due later between the chief constable of gwent police, pam kelly, and local mp5. it's over what she's described as "abhorrent" messages, which have emerged between serving and retired officers. it comes after the sunday times reported on a culture of misogyny,

corruption, and racism in the force. ms kelly says the messages don't represent the majority of staff. she's meeting mp5 and the gwent police and crime commissioner, jeff cuthbert, this afternoon. let's speak now to our reporter, mark hutchings, who is in cardiff. tell us how all this came to light. it is an episode that is hugely damaging to the reputation of gwent police, a force that is centred in south—east wales and a5 a consequence, as you say, there is this meeting due to take place between local mp5 and the chief constable and the police and crime commissioner but they will be focusing on that sunday times report from yesterday which spoke of that culture of misogyny, corruption and racism within the force. an investigation is now under way independently by wiltshire police and they were told —— we are told will be looking at messages on a

phone and a tablet. those messages have been shown we believe last month to gwent police and the initial response we have had from the chief constable pam kelly, she says those messages are apparent and if any officer is found to have breached standards, they will be found accountable. according to those reports, the devices belonged to an officer who had been in the force for 26 years. he has now died. and they are of a whatsapp and facebook nature and the tone of them, pretty grim stuff really. talks of sexual harassment of a juniorfemale talks of sexual harassment of a junior female colleague. talks of sexual harassment of a juniorfemale colleague. and others, along with racism and homophobic abuse. one local mp says it is not enough just to have the independent police investigation but there needs to be a wider inquiry to establish just how widespread this sort of behaviour could be.

my worry is if this is happening in gwent. _ my worry is if this is happening in gwent, what about other police forces — gwent, what about other police forces question mark i think we need to know _ forces question mark i think we need to know a — forces question mark i think we need to know... a public inquiry if necessary— to know... a public inquiry if necessary to look at all police forces — necessary to look at all police forces if — necessary to look at all police forces if necessary. we need to know what is _ forces if necessary. we need to know what is going on and then the police chiefs— what is going on and then the police chiefs can _ what is going on and then the police chiefs can then take steps to stamp out any— chiefs can then take steps to stamp out any behaviour like this because it is all— out any behaviour like this because it is all completely unacceptable. that is one of the mp5 in gwent. it was only two months ago that the force sacked two very senior officers for gross misconduct and that followed inappropriate touching of a junior officer at a party in 2019, it was a case that rumbled on for a fair few years. any ruling it was said a third officer would have been sacked, had he not retired from e4 been sacked, had he not retired from ea say few days before that. you eli say few days before that. you take that in conjunction with these latest reports, i was looking at the moldova gwent police, and it was protect and reassure and there is a

fair bit of work to be done restore public confidence. the turkish government has accused a kurdish separatist group of being behind a bomb blast that killed six people in istanbul. police in the capital have released bodycam footage of a raid on a property in which arrests were made, including of the main suspect following sunday's attack. no group has admitted carrying out the bombing, but the authorities have accused the kurdistan workers�* party or pkk of responsibility. the incident is thought to have been terrorist related and carried out by a woman. joining us now for more on this omer ozkizilcik, a foreign policy and security analyst based in ankara. thank you forjoining us. tell us more about this incident in which these people died.— more about this incident in which these people died. what we know about the incident _ these people died. what we know about the incident so _ these people died. what we know about the incident so far - these people died. what we know about the incident so far is - these people died. what we know about the incident so far is that i about the incident so far is that there was a bomb placed in a bag in

but i don't think he's prepared to be sitting on the bench. he always believed he felt he was untouchable in previous teams, so i don't really agree with that attitude. he should be proud of his career and his history, and i don't think that saying these things will help him, and actually it will hinder the club and actually it will hinder the club and the team and hinder himself because the more he says these things, the less likely it is that he will be playing. new wolves managerjulen lopetegui says the club needs to spend and bring in new players as they bid for premier league survival. sitting bottom of the table, the new mamanger says "out of the darkness comes the light. this is the perfect motto for us." the club did invest around £100 million in the summer when bruno lage was in charge until he was sacked after a poor run of form. lopetegui's first match in charge will be against gillingham in the league cup after qatar. england's women play new zealand in the semi final of the rugby league world cup this evening.

blended approach to climate investment. we need, to the tune of $3 trillion per annum in order to achieve the 2050 target. no single stakeholder has that kind of money but we need to bring private sector, governments, the development sector, the philanthropy together to create that blended approach. that is number one. sharing best practices. the uk has got great strength in developing a sustainable, impactful products and instruments. financial mechanisms? yes, and they are building on the existing strength. malaysia has great regulatory environment, so they are building a new city based on sustainability a net zero models and the nordics are great innovations and systems we can bring together. no one is talking about a planetary level charter of

thank you. what do you have to do before you eat food? count my carbs and check my blood sugars. that will sound familiar to the a00,000 people in the uk with type 1 diabetes, including 23,000 children under 15. it is very full—on. libby requires a lot of our attention 24/7. you know, it's through the night, as well. as soon as she gets up in the morning, we are on it with her insulin and making sure she has had it in time. type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune condition in which the body's immune system attacks healthy cells in the pancreas by mistake. it is not known why. it is different to type 2 diabetes, a complex condition with many risk factors, including age, ethnicity and weight. it has very much become part of our life now, but in the first two years, it really does shake everything up. it is totally life changing.

type 1 diabetes leads to the levels of glucose, or sugar, in the blood becoming too high. that happens because the body is unable to produce insulin, a hormone that controls the levels of blood glucose. so those who have the condition, like libby, need to take insulin every day. that used to mean five daily injections, but libby can now get her insulin through a pump. this device talks to the pump she is wearing on her body at the moment. again, that is giving her an upfront dose of insulin. she needs it about 15 minutes before she eats. and what is it like to wear? good and bad. better than it used to be, i guess, having the injections? way better. libby is six and was diagnosed three years ago, but, by then, she was already very unwell. undiagnosed or untreated, type 1 diabetes can lead to life—threatening complications.

so diabetes uk and jdrf, another diabetes charity, are hoping to recruit 20,000 families to take part in a ground—breaking trial. we need a way to spot children who are at high risk of type 1 diabetes so that we can ensure they have a safe and supported diagnosis and also so we can offer them spaces on clinical trials that are testing cutting—edge new therapies. you are looking to recruit 20,000 children to take part in this programme, but you don't want them to have type 1 diabetes now, necessarily. you want anyone to sign up. exactly. by taking part in the trial, what families will find out about is whether their child is at high or low risk. 25% of people who are diagnosed are in a life—threatening situation that can be avoided if people are diagnosed earlier. it would have helped us in the fact that libby would not have got so poorly and the shock would not have been as traumatic for us. at her school, staff can monitor

libby's blood sugar levels and administer insulin if necessary. we know then that she has the correct amount of insulin in her bloodstream ready for when she has her lunch in about 20 minutes. the kitchen staff, they work out the carbohydrates to make sure she has the right amount. as soon as she finishes school, i need to take her blood sugars and, if she is high, i will give her the correction dose of insulinjust bring the blood sugars down. i would love people to know how much they deal with. they wear devices 24/7. even that in itself is a huge thing. and to have those changed every three days, it is a lot for them. and they do feel different from their friends. so just for people to be kind to them and know that they are going through a lot. sometimes, it is easy and, sometimes, it is hard.

it is hoped the new trial could transform the diagnosis and management of type 1 diabetes. but, for now, even with improved technology, it remains a life—changing condition. tim muffett, bbc news, st helens in merseyside. joining us now is yalda alaoui, a nutritionist and founder of eat burn sleep, a gut health and low inflammation lifestyle platform. thank you very much forjoining us. it might surprise us how many people the world over are suffering from diet —— diabetes, be it type one or type two. diet -- diabetes, be it type one or -e two. ., �* , diet -- diabetes, be it type one or .etwo. . �*, . , type two. that's right. in the early 80s, type two. that's right. in the early 80s. about _ type two. that's right. in the early 80s. about 100 — type two. that's right. in the early 80s, about 100 million _ type two. that's right. in the early 80s, about 100 million people - type two. that's right. in the early i 80s, about 100 million people suffer 805, about 100 million people suffer from diabetes worldwide and today it is around 537 million. 95% of people with diabetes have type two, and

around 5%, type one. just as you have described, type one is a disease linked to chronic inflammation and type two is a late onset, we call it late onset because generally it is due to lifestyle factors, so the bad news it is growing in the world and can lead to heart failure, kidney failure, stroke, lower limb amputation, that the good news is it is reversible, tjy the good news is it is reversible, by improving diet and lifestyle. shat by improving diet and lifestyle. at the importance is you tackle it and diagnose it as quickly as possible, so what should people look out for? do the two types present differently?— do the two types present differentl ? , ~ , differently? yes. as the reporter 'ust differently? yes. as the reporter iust expiain. for— differently? yes. as the reporter just explain, for type _ differently? yes. as the reporter just explain, for type one, - differently? yes. as the reporter just explain, for type one, it's i just explain, for type one, it's difficult and it is in children and you don't expect a child to be ill, but then the food around us has changed and i will give you a few examples. there are a lot of

additives like emulsifiers, one which is legal in the uk and is present in a lot of foods, and that is directly linked to chronic inflammation, gut inflammation and metabolic disorder, so the food around us is inflammatory and triggers gene expression in someone who carries the gene for type one might develop it early in life, and for type two, it is basically people who are overweight and don't move enough. if you look at how our food culture has changed, it explains why this is happening. we are living in a processed food grazing culture. we are not giving a chance for our blood sugar levels to drop, the pancreas to take a rest, fat stores to be utilised and our body is constantly dealing with high levels of sugar in the blood, and that can

be deadly. people don't need to eat sweet foods to end up being overweight or diabetic. if you snack on crisps, they are savoury, these are still mainly made of fast release carbohydrate would spike your blood sugar levels, so anyone who does not exercise and does not exercise and is overweight has more chances of developing type two diabetes. ii chances of developing type two diabetes. , ., diabetes. if there is one thing we can do to change _ diabetes. if there is one thing we can do to change the _ diabetes. if there is one thing we can do to change the way - diabetes. if there is one thing we can do to change the way we - diabetes. if there is one thing we can do to change the way we eat| can do to change the way we eat which would prevent type one developing and prevent later onset type to emerge in, what would it be? stop snacking and have more fibre and protein at mealtimes. to keep you full between meals and to give a rest to your body between meals so you can start tapping into your fag

that's set a new world record. good afternoon. 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 a0,000 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 around. there is no quick fix, no silver bullet. our cooperation and collaboration with the french on the channel, on the uk coastline, on the french coastline is absolutely integral to ensuring that there is a robust barrier preventing people disembarking from the french beaches in the first place. under the deal overall funding will rise by £8 million per annum to 63 million.

this, the government says, will enable it to boost the number of patrol officers by a0%, taking it to a total of 300. uk staff will also be embedded in french offices. but this local mp says the deal does not go far enough. we have had joint controls, joint intelligence now for a number of years with the french, that isn't tackling this issue. the only thing that will is making sure the boats are stopped in france before they get in the water and this agreement doesn't get us to where we need to be to tackle this urgent and serious crisis. labour leader sir keir starmer said the government needs to tackle the people smugglers, the source of the problem. most people look at this and say, there is more taxpayers' cash being spent on the problem at the government is making, this has been going on very long time and the home secretary has said the system is broken.

she is right about that. they broke it. this is a step in the right direction but there is so much more that needs to be done. for their part, the french authorities say they have managed to prevent 30,000 small boat journeys in the channel this year but the challenge in patrolling hundreds of miles of coastline is immense. richard galpin, bbc news. joining us now is jonathan portes, professor of economics and public policy at kings college london. welcome, at kings college london. thank you very much for joining welcome, thank you very much for joining us this afternoon. what difference this agreement going to make? we have spoken to people who think it willjust mean the migrants moved to a different part of the coast leave france. the experience in the past — coast leave france. the experience in the past has _ coast leave france. the experience in the past has been _ coast leave france. the experience in the past has been that _ coast leave france. the experience in the past has been that these i in the past has been that these agreements do reduce crossings to some extent, for some time, but they

do find other ways through, sol think that is likely. it is a positive step, but the government needs to essentially —— the root of the problem is that there is no safe route, there is no way for those refugees who do have a reasonable and legitimate claim to come here, family connections, there is no route for those people, so they have no choice but to cross the channel and on the other hand, when people get here, they are not being processed, they are being given refugee status all being found to not have a claim and therefore being denied asylum and removed. neither of those things are happening. that is not because of this recent surge in channel crossings. the rise in the asylum backlog, the reason we have so many people in hotels and we are spending so much money on keeping people in such horrible

conditions, in places like manston, is because the government has for some years mismanaged the system. basically have not been processing asylum claims at all. and so that is why we have a backlog of 120,000 people. it is fundamentally a problem of mismanagement by the government at this end. ii it problem of mismanagement by the government at this end.— government at this end. if it is that obvious, _ government at this end. if it is that obvious, why _ government at this end. if it is that obvious, why aren't i government at this end. if it is that obvious, why aren't they i government at this end. if it is i that obvious, why aren't they doing something about it question mark unfortunately, at least over the last couple of years, they have refer to make these gestures which are both cruel and ineffective. like the rwanda _ are both cruel and ineffective. l «1a the rwanda scheme. and i think one of the positive things about today and we should recognise that it is positive, is that even on its own does not solve the problem and the home secretary to be fair did not claim it would solve the problem, it is a recognition of reality, that is that you address the problem by cooperation with the french, by processing claims quicker, by

hopefully ultimately giving refuge to people who do have a legitimate claim, ratherthan to people who do have a legitimate claim, rather than by these rather cruel and pointless gestures. if the government is recognising that is how you solve the problem, that at least in itself is a positive step forward. ~ ., ., least in itself is a positive step forward. . . . . ., ., forward. what are the frenchman to do with people _ forward. what are the frenchman to do with people that _ forward. what are the frenchman to do with people that they _ forward. what are the frenchman to do with people that they might i forward. what are the frenchman to do with people that they might stop | do with people that they might stop from leaving? i do with people that they might stop from leaving?— from leaving? i think that is the roblem from leaving? i think that is the problem from — from leaving? i think that is the problem from the _ from leaving? i think that is the problem from the french - from leaving? i think that is the problem from the french point| from leaving? i think that is the | problem from the french point of view. the french have considerably more asylum claims overall than we do. it is not like the french don't have their own issues with people who come to france and claim asylum, refugees and people who come for other reasons, they do. the french say these people are a small minority who want to get to the uk and they are going to keep trying to get to the uk, so we can stop them but having stopped them, what are we supposed to do? throw them in prison

indefinitely? why should we pay for that? the sort of arrangement which has in the past, under david blunkett for example, many years ago, work trees —— reasonably well, setting up processing centres in france so that people who had a reasonable claim for coming to the uk, because they had family or other such connections, could make those claims and then those people could come here while others were processed in france and rejected and dealt with by the french. but you have to accept that from a french point of view, simply saying to them, you have to make sure nobody comes since all and if you arrest them, and stop them, that is your responsivity had nothing to do with us. the reason they are trying is because they want to come to the uk. thank you very much joining us.

joe biden, has been speaking about his first face—to—face talks with the chinese leader, xi jinping. the meeting, on the sidelines of the 620 summit, comes at a time of heightened tensions between the two countries. of mr xi, joe biden said, "i think we understand each other". and he emphasised the need to avoid misunderstandings. here's a little of what president biden had to say. he was clear and i was clear, we will defend american interest and values and stand up for the international order and work in lockstep with our allies and partners. we are going to compete vigorously but i am not looking for conflict, i am looking to manage the competition responsibly and i want to make sure that every country abides by the international rules of the road. we discussed that. the one china policy has not changed. it has not changed. we oppose unilateral changes in the status quo by either side and we are committed to maintaining the peace and stability.

it was also clear that china and the united states should be able to work together where we can to solve global challenges that require every nation to do its part. we discussed russian aggression against ukraine, reaffirmed our shared belief in the threat, the use of nuclear weapons is totally unacceptable, and i asked that the secretary travel to china to follow—up on the discussions and continue keeping the lines of communication open between our two countries. i think holding it was incredibly important. it was difficult to organise, the officials thought the climate between the countries was too bad to risk it. they were able to use the full three hours and go beyond that suggests they were determined to cover all of the areas where they disagree and explore areas where they need to cooperate, there needs to be some good news in this relationship and there were no headlines coming out of that but they have agreed they will be designating senior officials to maintaining the relationship at a better pitch

than we have seen it for the rest of this year. joe biden said he was going to be blunt, that is a trademark in his dealings with foreign leaders. and he did not mince his words on any of the issues. taiwan, ukraine, a whole range of others, where they disagree with china. both sides stressed very much this need to be responsible in their relationship, to stop it deteriorating. xijinping also cited economic rivalry as an area that they should not let get out of hand. i think that was a reference to the sanctions the us has been applying to things like technology components and also stated that he did not accept this narrative thatjoe biden has really adopted of democracy versus authoritarianism as the way in which the world should be run. but it was an expression of blunt views held by both sides, wanting to hear each side, but to present to the world the fact

affection for xijinping, who he has met many times before, he is keeping expectations quite modest. yes, but it may change, do you think, the way that these nations interact with each other over taiwan in particular? we did see behaviour earlier in the year which meant that tensions escalated. i think taiwan is the most difficult issue. it is one where xi jinping is a far more nationalist leaders and previous chinese leaders and also has a much more assertive foreign policy and has made... emphasising taiwan as part of china a core part of the way he presents himself. he is deeply suspicious of what the americans are doing. the chinese have accused

the americans of encouraging taiwan to think about independence. joe biden stressed that the policy has not changed but i do not think they can agree on taiwan. the americans are still deeply worried that at some point xijinping has plans to make a military move against taiwan and if that happened, the us would react and that'll be a problem. joe biden says does not believe that is imminent. it is not a problem they are confronting for now. our political editor, chris mason, is also in bali for that meeting of 620 leaders which includes the prime minister rishi sunak, who's been speaking to broadcasters this lunchtime. hello from bali, where world leaders from the 620 are gathering. rishi sunak landed here in the last hour, straight into his first bilateral, as it is known, one—on—one meeting with a fellow world leader, justin trudeau of canada, the person he was meeting.

it is mid evening now, so tomorrow morning, the meetings again will resume. one of the main sessions of the 620, where all of the leaders, the most senior representatives from the countries that are here gather, there will be a chance for the first time since the outbreak of the war in ukraine for british prime minister to directly condemn russian actions to a senior russian figure. sergei lavrov, the russian foreign minister is here. president putin is not. the broader conversation that will happen at this summit is absolutely focused on the economy. the consequences of the war in ukraine, the consequences of the pandemic. the world economy is trying to grapple with two big shocks that have had a devastating impact in so many parts of the world and for rishi sunak, that focus on the international stage, of problems shared, if you like, amongst world leaders, whilst at the same time keeping an eye on what is going on back home

ahead of the autumn statement, the budget that is taking place on thursday and that expectation as has been said for weeks now, they are saying it will be difficult, there will be spending cuts and tax rises. many will see it as a bad news budget. shortly after he got off the plane, rishi sunak talked to beth rigby of sky news. she was asking questions on behalf of all of the uk broadcasters. we should not pretend that there aren't some difficult choices ahead because that is what is required to ensure that in the long—term, we candle the things that will benefit people are possibly as finances because if inflation gets out of control, it will not help anyone, if interest rates keep spiralling, that will not help anyone, but i am confident that what the government will deliver on thursday will be fair and compassionate and will deal with the challenges we face and put us on a path to recovery for the future.

the 620 is an economic forum. it was originally devised after the end of the financial crisis in asia in the late 19905 and became a more important forum in the wake of the international financial crisis in 2007 and 2008. it's very reason for existing is to talk about economic calamity if you like on a global stage because you have so many leaders from so many of the big economies gathering and talking. what is awkward about this forum is that beyond having big economies, the members are very, very different in their broader worldview, so reaching agreement is very difficult, not least in this instance because russia is here but can they even agreed to a final set of conclusions at the end of the summit question of the expectation from diplomats is that will be very difficult because they won't be able to agree on language that they can all sign up to as far as condemning

russia is concerned. nonetheless, the british delegation still think it is a worthwhile trip. the foreign policy is tilted towards this region, the indo—pacific, after the uk left the european union, and it is a chance already sooner, still relatively new in post as prime minister, to meet plenty of other leaders, who he has not yet met face—to—face. joining me to discuss the economic plans is vicky pryce, who is chief economics adviser at the centre for economics and business research. thank you very much forjoining us on the bbc news channel. what areas do you believe the 620 members will have in common? it is do you believe the 620 members will have in common?— have in common? it is interesting because the _ have in common? it is interesting because the theme _ have in common? it is interesting because the theme of _ have in common? it is interesting because the theme of the - have in common? it is interesting . because the theme of the conference this time is recover together, recover stronger, and what you are seeing right now is that there is huge disparity in the countries, so it will be difficult to get a political sort of agreement in terms

of whatever is pronounced at the end of whatever is pronounced at the end of the two days but also my economic one. argentina is under imf guidance, if you like. it has an emergency facility that has been given to it by the imf. and it obvious he has debt issues and very high inflation. then you have russia which has acted to reduce the supplies of gas to europe in particular. germany themselves actually going into recession pretty soon. those are the signs we are seeing. and the uk of course, which is raising both interest rates and taxes. you have a complete variance really in terms of the economic fortunes right now, even though the world economy as a whole is slowing down. the ability to come anything really sort of solid in terms of the areas that will be

looked at, energy security for example, food security, both of those have been important issues since the war in ukraine, health because a lot of countries still need a lot of support following the pandemic and then you have the environmental issue, which is if you like linked with the cop27 that we have just had. like linked with the cop27 that we havejust had. it like linked with the cop27 that we have just had. it is a pretty difficult task and it will be interesting to see what comes out of it at the end of the day. isn’t interesting to see what comes out of it at the end of the day.— it at the end of the day. isn't it alwa s it at the end of the day. isn't it always the _ it at the end of the day. isn't it always the way _ it at the end of the day. isn't it always the way that _ it at the end of the day. isn't it always the way that when - it at the end of the day. isn't it always the way that when you | it at the end of the day. isn't it - always the way that when you bring together this many economies, which perform so differently? {iii together this many economies, which perform so differently?— perform so differently? of course, but in this time, _ perform so differently? of course, but in this time, you _ perform so differently? of course, but in this time, you have - perform so differently? of course, but in this time, you have winners| but in this time, you have winners and losers from the war in ukraine, so you have saudi arabia for example which has benefited from higher oil prices and if anything is trying to keep prices high by not listening to the others. we have tried that to see if they can support more the effort of moving away from russian

dependents. and they are cutting in fact production under opec in order to keep prices high, the production of oil. you have all sorts of extra pressures that have, because of the war. this is a difficult time but uri, it has always been a struggle in a way but what we saw during the financial crisis is that there was a war —— a lot of coordinated activity to get out of the problem then. there is not really coordinated activity right now. countries seem to be doing different things and thatis to be doing different things and that is the difficulty that we are encountering.— that is the difficulty that we are encountering. how likely is it that we will see _ encountering. how likely is it that we will see parts _ encountering. how likely is it that we will see parts of— encountering. how likely is it that we will see parts of the _ encountering. how likely is it that we will see parts of the 620 - encountering. how likely is it that i we will see parts of the 620 forming we will see parts of the g20 forming blocks or factions, where they are more aligned?— blocks or factions, where they are more aligned? that is a problem in itself because _ more aligned? that is a problem in itself because we _ more aligned? that is a problem in itself because we are _ more aligned? that is a problem in itself because we are already - itself because we are already talking about a block between russia, possibly china and india. where they are hopefully for them anyway departing a little bit from dependence on the dollar all links

between the west and them and they are working a lot more jointly, between the west and them and they are working a lot morejointly, or at least they look as if they want to do that. and you have the worst getting closer together, trying to coordinate their attitude if you like and their response with sanctions and so on boards russia and we also have the issue with china in terms of the trade and the concerns that we were just listening to in terms of taiwan. we are definitely seeing those groupings emerging and that makes it a little bit more difficult to come out with something solid and united. thank ou ve something solid and united. thank you very much _ something solid and united. thank you very much for _ something solid and united. thank you very much forjoining - something solid and united. thank you very much forjoining us. - president zelensky of ukraine has visited the southern city of kherson, just days after his troops recaptured it following russia's withdrawal. president zelensky addressed some of his soldiers, and sang the national anthem as the ukrainian flag was raised over the city. kherson was taken by russia early on in the war and its recapture by ukraine is a major strategic blow for the kremlin. catherine byaruhanga reports

from the ukrainian capital kyiv. scenes that were unimaginable just a few weeks ago. president volodymyr zelensky in kherson, singing the national anthem as the ukrainian flag is raised once again in front of the regional administrative building. coming to our country, to all of the occupied territories. a hero's welcome.

but from people who still have no power, water, medicines, and even bread. it will be a huge task to get basic services back to kherson, especially because shelling and artillery fire continues around the city. russian forces are just a few kilometres away across the dnipro river. president zelensky is seizing the moment to showcase ukraine's latest success on the battlefield. victories are hard to come by in this brutal war. catherine byaruhanga, bbc news. the trial of the nurse lucy letby is continuing. today the court heard from the mother of identical twin boys. ms letby is accused of murdering one of the twin boys and attempting to murder the other. ms letby, has been charged with murdering seven babies and attempting to murder 10 others at the hospital between 2015 and 2016. she denies 22 charges.

judith moritz has been in court. the court order means we cannot identify them but we are describing them as babies e and f, and their mother was a patient in the postnatal ward at the hospital. one evening, five days after they were born, she went down to the neonatal unit to take some breastmilk she had expressed for their feeds. the court heard from her in evidence today about what happened as she approached the neo—natal ward. she said she could hear screaming, she said she could hear screaming, she said it was... i could hear mice and crying and it was like nothing i had

heard before. as i walked over to the inca baiter, she said, she could see that he had blood around his mouth and was making a noise that should not have come from a tiny baby. it was so horrendous i cannot describe it. it was more of a screen than a cry. the only person in the room at the time, she says, was lucy letby. she says the nurse was not by the incubator, she was by the workstation. the mother said she had asked the nurse what was wrong, why was there bleeding? the nurse had told her it was likely to have come from a feeding tube rubbing and causing irritation. and that the mother should go back to the ward. she was asked, why did you go back up she was asked, why did you go back up to the postnatal ward if you are concerned? she said because she trusted the nurse, she trusted her authority, she trusted her completely. lucy letby is charged with murdering the baby by injecting air into his bloodstream and the

jury air into his bloodstream and the jury was told he died later on the same night and also that the next day, the nurse is accused of attempting to murder his twin brother. she denies both of those charges. she also denies charges relating to another 15 babies. this case, which is expected to last for around six months, continues. the fashion retailerjoules has said it plans to appoint administrators in a move that could put more than 1,500 jobs at risk. the company said talks with potential investors to secure extra funds had failed. it's the latest retailer to hit trouble as consumers cut spending in the face of the soaring cost of living. joining us now is retail expert claire bailey. just explain the mechanism that we are likely to see joules just explain the mechanism that we are likely to seejoules having to go through. we are likely to see joules having to go through-— are likely to see joules having to anothrouh.~ . , , ., go through. we have seen this far too many times _ go through. we have seen this far too many times over _ go through. we have seen this far too many times over the - go through. we have seen this far too many times over the years. i too many times over the years. basically what happens when a company reaches the point of

this is the situation. there is zenuel, there is lysander and there is myself, dad. a single father living in a one—bedroom flat, overcrowded. we are on the 15th floor. i will literally sleep here. like that. and what happens, he tends to come round, because he wants some warmth. he will come over to me and cuddle up to me. so we end up sleeping like that. nine years i have been here. there are families all over bristol going through situations like we are going through. and i really can't take any more of this. this is the first time... there is no slack. after he has paid all his bills, he is left with £52 a week to cover everything — school uniform, shoes and all theirfood. you have got to find the times when they are putting the prices down.

what time is that? if you don't get there in the morning, it is usually at the night, when they switch over. so i had to wait — literally, i had to save to buy cheese. that is not right. what i do, i take the money out so i know i don't go over, so i stay within that budget. if i go over, then i will put stuff back. samuel is hoping he hasn't missed the offers. no, they haven't got any in today now. can't afford to get that. now, we can't get that because it will eat the money up. so instead he sticks with the basics and they head home to eat. then i would eat it. so i will take, basically, the scraps off their... it sounds horrible to say that, doesn't it — scraps? i will take what they are not eating. that's the way it goes. and while it cooks, time to have a bath. because you can't

put the heating on. you can't turn the water on, because that is going to... you would be out of pocket. so what i have to do, and it does save money, fill this kettle, max, and i will boil that. so i would use this to have a bath. samuel says heating the hot water in the tank is too expensive. using the kettle is much cheaper. but it means zenuel�*s bath is really shallow. you are living on the bare minimum as it is, anyway, and then everything around you is going up. it is like being in a sinking ship and you have a teaspoon to get the water out to save yourself. that is what it is like. fiona lamdin, bbc news. a leading gambling awareness charity has warned of a 'perfect storm' brewing as world cup sports craze might add onto the cost of living crisis, pushing vulnerable and addicted people into behaviours that further risk theirs and their

families' financial safety. with me is david quinti — trustee for the gambling lived experience network, and zoe osmond, chief executive of gambleaware, the charity behind the report. welcome to you both. zoe, first of all, how much is gambling being promoted around the world cup? the world promoted around the world cup? tue: world cup promoted around the world cup? t'te: world cup should promoted around the world cup? tte: world cup should be promoted around the world cup? t'te: world cup should be an promoted around the world cup? tte: world cup should be an enjoyable time for all, in particular bringing the nation together but we are concerned with the volume of gambling promotion taking place in the last survey with 60% of football fans commenting that there is too much gambling promotion alongside a plethora of matches so it's easy to get carried away in this campaign is to make people aware of the risks and to make sure they take steps so they can gamble, if they do, safely. the only other thing i would say to thatis the only other thing i would say to that is we are in a cost of living crisis and we know from our research that 39% of people are concerned

that 39% of people are concerned that they are most likely to gamble more because of financial pressures. david, you gambled i believe for ten to 15 years but thankfully you have been gambling free for seven years which is a huge achievement and back in the days when you are tempted to gamble, how much of a draw with the world cup have been for you? massive, because there's so much belting _ massive, because there's so much betting and so much to do. when i started _ betting and so much to do. when i started betting it was football games — started betting it was football games on the coupons, going to the bookies _ games on the coupons, going to the bookies and things like that but the landscape _ bookies and things like that but the landscape changed when online gambling came in and i was part of that, _ gambling came in and i was part of that, things like live betting and being _ that, things like live betting and being able to bet all day. with no intervention. it would have been absolutely huge for me and i probably would have spent a lot of my money— probably would have spent a lot of my money and gambled a lot away irresponsibly, and the way things are now. — irresponsibly, and the way things are now, it's so easy to go and open an account _ are now, it's so easy to go and open an account and go on there. that would _ an account and go on there. that would have — an account and go on there. that would have been massive for me. you ke -t it would have been massive for me. you kept it secret — would have been massive for me. tm.

kept it secret from people for a long time. it must have been a huge burden for you to carry. yes. long time. it must have been a huge burden for you to carry.— burden for you to carry. yes, the stranre burden for you to carry. yes, the strange thing — burden for you to carry. yes, the strange thing is, _ burden for you to carry. yes, the strange thing is, i _ burden for you to carry. yes, the strange thing is, i started - burden for you to carry. yes, the strange thing is, i started like i strange thing is, i started like anybody. _ strange thing is, i started like anybody, just having a bit of fun and then— anybody, just having a bit of fun and then it _ anybody, just having a bit of fun and then it became very serious and i was _ and then it became very serious and i was betting a large amount of money— i was betting a large amount of money and to look at me you would have thought i was a normal person living _ have thought i was a normal person living a _ have thought i was a normal person living a normal life that i couldn't tell anyone and partly because of the stigma and shame and people not understanding why you would gamble that amount of money, £5,000 at a time online — that amount of money, £5,000 at a time online and i could not tell people — time online and i could not tell people because i was afraid of what would _ people because i was afraid of what would happen with my family and all i wanted _ would happen with my family and all i wanted to do was recoup my losses and ultimately i didn't and i had to stop _ and ultimately i didn't and i had to stop we _ and ultimately i didn't and i had to sto -. ~ and ultimately i didn't and i had to sto. ~ . ~ and ultimately i didn't and i had to sto.~ . ~',, and ultimately i didn't and i had to sto.~ . ~ ., ., and ultimately i didn't and i had to sto.~ . ~' ., , stop. we will talk about how you set u . stop. we will talk about how you set u- our stop. we will talk about how you set up your network— stop. we will talk about how you set up your network and _ stop. we will talk about how you set up your network and the _ stop. we will talk about how you set up your network and the difference i up your network and the difference it makes in a moment. but zoe, a lot of what you have heard david say, that must be what a lot of other people go through to. what is your advice when the temptation is there

for people even though they might know that they cannot afford to waste this money?— know that they cannot afford to waste this money? absolutely. first of all, waste this money? absolutely. first of all. gambling _ waste this money? absolutely. first of all, gambling problems _ waste this money? absolutely. first of all, gambling problems can - waste this money? absolutely. first i of all, gambling problems can happen to anyone, so don't assume it is not going to be you. secondly there are steps you can take to keep it in check, such as setting time and money limits or deleting apps and the third thing about the stigma, have a conversation. talk to your friends and loved ones and if you are concerned, there's lots of resources to help with looking at the gambling awareness website. how much does it help to talk to about this experience? tt much does it help to talk to about this experience?— this experience? it feels like thera . this experience? it feels like therapy- i — this experience? it feels like therapy. i stopped _ this experience? it feels like therapy. i stopped before i this experience? it feels like - therapy. i stopped before people found _ therapy. i stopped before people found out and that was tough but when _ found out and that was tough but when i _ found out and that was tough but when i went through my recovery, i wanted _ when i went through my recovery, i wanted to— when i went through my recovery, i wanted to help other people and doing _ wanted to help other people and doing things like this, talking to people — doing things like this, talking to people and being part of the network and working with gamble aware, it

such— can give, don't be on your own, it's such a _ can give, don't be on your own, it's such a debilitating illness, like the invisible addiction and as soon as you _ the invisible addiction and as soon as you speak to somebody, the stigma will not _ as you speak to somebody, the stigma will not be _ as you speak to somebody, the stigma will not be as bad as you think, and i reached _ will not be as bad as you think, and i reached out — will not be as bad as you think, and i reached out on the understanding that you _ i reached out on the understanding that you could reach out. eoe i reached out on the understanding that you could reach out.— that you could reach out. zoe is noddin: that you could reach out. zoe is nodding to _ that you could reach out. zoe is nodding to everything - that you could reach out. zoe is nodding to everything you - that you could reach out. zoe is nodding to everything you said. j that you could reach out. zoe is - nodding to everything you said. tell us about this bet regret campaign. bet regret is those bets you know you should not have made, and it leads to a sinking feeling, though not in the bottom of your stomach so a bet when you are drunk, board or chasing losses, and we have all had pet regrets, but when you have got them, take the time out and do the steps we have outlined and this campaign is geared to make sure people enjoy the world cup and avoid that bet regret. find people enjoy the world cup and avoid that bet regret-— that bet regret. and where can --eole that bet regret. and where can people go _ that bet regret. and where can people go to — that bet regret. and where can people go to because - that bet regret. and where can people go to because david i that bet regret. and where can| people go to because david has that bet regret. and where can - people go to because david has his network working with people but lots of resources out there for people.

there is a national gambling helpline and that's 20 a7, three, and highly confidential to anybody who calls. thank you for your time. are we not doing headlines? let me find what we are doing. do bear with me for one second. thank you so much, i do not know his on the autocue, but for rescuing me. the chief constable of gwent police is making —— —— a meeting is due later between the chief constable of gwent police, pam kelly — and local mps. it's over what she's described as "abhorrent" messages, ms kelly says the messages don't represent the majority of staff. she's meeting mps and the gwent police and crime commissioner,

jeff cuthbert, this afternoon. it is an episode that is damaging to the representation —— reputation of gwent present —— gwent police, centred in south—east wales and as a consequence, as you say, there is the meeting due to take place this afternoon between the local mps and the chief constable. but afternoon between the local mps and the chief constable.— the chief constable. but they will be focusing _ the chief constable. but they will be focusing on — the chief constable. but they will be focusing on that _ the chief constable. but they will be focusing on that sunday - the chief constable. but they will| be focusing on that sunday times report in yesterday's paper which spoke of the culture of misogyny, corruption and racism within the force and the investigation is under by wiltshire police and they will be looking at messages on a phone and tablet, and those messages have been shown to gwent police and in the initial response we have had, she says the messages are apparent and that if anybody is found to have breached standards, they will be held accountable either professionally or if appropriate criminally. and according to the

reports, the devices belonged to an officer who had been in the force for 26 years and he has now died and they were over what's up and facebook and the tone of them was pretty grim, talks of sexual harassment of a junior female colleague and others along with racism and homophobic abuse. one local mp says it's not enough to just have the independent police investigation, but there needs to be a wider inquiry as well to establish how widespread this behaviour could be. mr; how widespread this behaviour could be. ~ , ., , how widespread this behaviour could be. p ., , , , , how widespread this behaviour could be.; ,, be. my worry is if this is happening in gwent, what _ be. my worry is if this is happening in gwent, what about _ be. my worry is if this is happening in gwent, what about other - be. my worry is if this is happening in gwent, what about other police | in gwent, what about other police forces _ in gwent, what about other police forces and — in gwent, what about other police forces and i — in gwent, what about other police forces and i do think we need to know— forces and i do think we need to know to — forces and i do think we need to know to have a public inquiry to look _ know to have a public inquiry to look at — know to have a public inquiry to look at all— know to have a public inquiry to look at all police forces across the uk because of its happening there where _ uk because of its happening there where else is it happening. we need to know— where else is it happening. we need to know what is going on and the police _ to know what is going on and the police chiefs can take steps to stamp — police chiefs can take steps to stamp out any behaviour like this because — stamp out any behaviour like this because it's all unacceptable.

that's— because it's all unacceptable. that's ruthjones one of the mps in gwent and it was only two months ago that the force sacked two senior officers for gross misconduct following inappropriate touching of a junior officer at a party in 2019, a junior officer at a party in 2019, a case that rumbled on for a fair few years and in the ruling third senior officer would have been sacked had he notjust retired from the force a few days before. i was looking at the latest report and the motto for gwent police is protect and reassure and it seems there is a fair bit of work to be done to shore up fair bit of work to be done to shore up public confidence. the bbc is celebrating the 100th anniversary of its first official bbc broadcast — a news bulletin from london. it included a court report from the old bailey, details of disruption caused by fog in the capital, and the billiards scores. our correspondent david sillito is here. nothing, nothing from the early 19205, however, we do have a taste

of what the beginning may have sounded like, because arthur burrows, director of programmes, re—recorded the opening call sound. the radio station was 2lo, the original broadcasting station. let's listen to the sound of arthur. 2l0, marconi house, london calling. and that is arthur, who was also the director of programmes, the main news reader, and also uncle arthur, who did some of the children's programming. there were about four or five people employed by the bbc in london at that time, it was a tiny organisation, about 30,000 people might have had a chance to listen in, but what we have to remember is, this was not the only bbc on that day. and there's been lots

of new research done about the bbc 2zy service coming out of manchester, and officially started the next day, but research shows that actually they were broadcasting on this day as well and the lady with the magic carpet was doing a children's programme on that day, and when they go through the records, a lot of the firsts come from these bbc stations, from manchester, the first variety, and regular comes from manchester. the first radio satire, archie's priceless piffle. it is a sign that the image of london on the bbc but it was broader than that, and the first bulletin, the billiard scores and the weather, foggy. as it has been today, in fact. can you solve a rubik's cube? a so—called 'speed—cubing champion' has set a new world record, by solving almost 7,000 cubes in the space of 2a hours. 20—year—old george scholey broke the previous record last week. he's been speaking to my colleague

joanna gosling about how he does it i can't learn a3 quintillion things and apply them and i split it into steps, and about four steps is the typical method most speed cubers use and i start by building the cross as it is called and that forms the foundation. the cross? that will be along the middle. i see. exactly like that. and that forms the foundations and i plan that out and may be a couple more things in inspection but from there i might i might be pausing a bit. i will be having to recognise when to use a certain algorithm and use it for that specific case. you see even now i think i've scrambled it enough let's check. have we got the time are going? 0k. go. what?

that was around the world record time. my hands are a bit cold. i was absolutely gripped. can you unscramble another one? i want to see it again. basically, i saw one side come together and then itjust seemed like the whole thing. it's a common misconception that you build it in sides. you build it in layers from top to bottom, sorry, from bottom to top, so the first layer, second layer then the third layer and obviously it becomes progressively harder because the more you solve, the less you want to mess up what you have made and that is a big thing with it so it's why it is important you learn the algorithms, temporarily mixing up and having switched a few pieces, the more algorithms you know, the better you will be to solve it and you only need to know four or five, but at this kind of point in my career, i know about a thousand. it's a lot of practice with these algorithms. can you do this one a bit more slowly to give somebody watching at home some tips

quite my guy will scramble this one, so have another quick one. give us some good tips. there are six sides, six colours. the centre pieces, they determine the colour of each side, so blue will always be opposite green, red opposite orange, and that means when you know that, you can always start on a certain side and you know which will centres are around it and where the pieces need to be. i will start on the green cross, and i will do that and it builds the cross. i am doing this in certain intuitive moves. there is no way i can break it down where somebody can learn from a bbc interview. you said about the intuitive moves, it's like your brain is working faster. faster than you consciously know. in a way, i suppose. in this case, the first step, the cross, is intuitive and the rest is algorithmic, like muscle memory but applying muscle memory.

imagine like a ten or 15 chord piano song that you drill and you know your fingers can do it. i'm not thinking as i am doing it, like, right, up, left, i am thinking my hand does this. and i am recognising when to use it, that is the main thing. and then i will do the algorithms that will solve the first two layers in one go. and those first two layers are completed at that point. and then after that, you can do the last part in one or two steps and in this case i will do it in two steps. the first part will be to solve the whole of the top face. not the layer, just the face. so make all of this blue like that and then i use an algorithm to solve the rest of it and switch around the rest of them. i love it! i don't know what the time was for the first one. around 12 seconds. i must admit after the attempt, after doing it for 2a—hours, my wrists got a bit painful.

repetitive strain injury. so for 2a hours, it was tough. i did the whole thing caffeine free. well done. with no pressure then. please try and beat your record. let's go again. oh, it was less. that was seven point something. that was much better. 6.72. that's about half the time of the last one. that was a bit better. old record holder talking tojoanna. time for a look at the weather. t time for a look at the weather. i can do this in two and a half minutes, so i hope you will be impressed. low pressure sitting to the west and driving in the rain bearing weather fronts and more to come as the week goes on and around these areas of low pressure, the

tight isobars indicating strong winds, gales at times and the air is coming from further north—west across the atlantic towards us rather than the south, last week and through the weekend, so what does it mean? things are cooler and relatively mild if you avoided the fog but temperatures on the way down during the rest of the week and closer to what is typical for the time of year but then again we haven't had that for a while so it's going to feel very different out there. we have an area of wet weather beginning to slide its way in as we look at the recent rainfall picture and its more towards western scotland but a narrow band of heavy bursts stretching towards central and southern england at the moment and southern england at the moment and to the east of all of that it stayed grey and misty all day long and things will look different tomorrow because the area of rain will advance east across all parts and into tomorrow, clearly wider, heavier rain with stronger winds and it could bring difficult travel conditions or parts of south wales and southern england as we start the day tomorrow with eva rain falling,

or after a wet night. the rain tomorrow does advance to those parts that begin the day dry in the east and they were go into parts of scotland, aberdeenshire, perth, kinross and rain totals will mount in the afternoon so there will be some disruption and slow movement here and elsewhere it clears away much of southern england, wales, northern ireland, perhaps southwest, does well, more brighter skies moving in, and this is the picture on wednesday and a lot of it is out of the way and we will see blustery showers coming into the south and west on late tuesday into wednesday and another spell of heavy rain targeting south—western parts with the strengthening wind, so it does mean overnight into thursday there will be gales alongside the north sea coast and it moves through and turns stormy in the northern isles, especially for shetland on thursday and behind that will be further showers and there will be brighter spells. things do turn quieter by

friday into the very beginning of the weekend which will start on a chilly and in places frosty note on saturday morning, but you can see through the symbols here that we will see more wet weather moving in and stronger winds as that moves in as the weekend goes on but you will notice definitely a different feel to the weather out there. more weather coming up in half an hour.

this is bbc news. i'm ben brown. the headlines at 5pm: the uk will pay france millions of pounds more for increased patrols on french beaches to prevent people crossing the channel in small boats. there is no single solution to this problem and international cooperation is a vital part of the solution. the prime minister claims expected tax rises and spending cuts have already stabilised financial markets. all smiles between president biden and the chinese leader xijinping, as both leaders discuss the tensions between their two nations. i absolutely believe there need not be a new cold war. i have met many times with xi jinping and we were candid and clear with one another across the board.
