this is bbc news with the latest headlines... rishi sunak criticises russia's �*barbaric�* war in ukraine as the 620 gets under way in bali. as uk unemployment rises slightly in the three months to september — regular pay falls due to the cost of living crisis. if you're in work, where are you seeing the biggest differences in how far your money goes, compared to before the recent rises in inflation? get in touch, @annitabbc, #bbcyourquestions the health secretary will speak to union bosses today amid the growing prospect of further strikes by nhs workers. a global milestone — as the world's population passes

eight billion people. and in her new book, michelle obama reveals how she struggled with her appearance but learned how to love herself. a black president, an african—american family in the white house, they saw themselves in one of the most powerful positions on earth. president zelensky has told 620 leaders meeting in indonesia that russia's war against ukraine can and must be stopped. he called for russia to withdraw from ukraine and pay reparations. a draft communique circulating at the summit deplores the impact of moscow's invasion of ukraine, and calls the use of nuclear weapons inadmissible.

leaders have also voiced deep concern over the challenges posed to global food security by the war. mr zelensky told the summit in bali that ukraine shouldn't be pressured into negotiating with moscow. translation: i want this aggressive russian work to end justly and on - the basis of the un charter and international law. ukraine should not be offered to conclude compromises with its conscience, sovereignty, territory and independence. we respect the rules and we are people of our world. and we are people of our word. ukraine has always been a leader in peacekeeping efforts and the world has witnessed it, and if russia says that it supposedly wants to end this war, let it prove it with actions. a p pa re ntly apparently one cannot trust russia's words, and there would be no minsk three which russia would violate immediately after signing.

opening the meeting, the host, presidentjoko widodo, warned that the war in ukraine was impacting food, energy and financial security. he said it would be difficult to move forward until it was over. we are facing crisis after crisis. the covid—i9 pandemic has not ended. rivalries continue to heighten. the war continues. and the impact of this crisis towards food security, energy security and financial security is truly felt by the world, especially developing countries. our correspondent jonathan head is following developments at the summit. that is the main focus, inevitable both pleasure and zelensky addressing all delegates who buy video, giving the impassioned speech, calling them to make this the moment when they closed down the ukraine wall, they should not give

into russia nuclear blackmail. there is a kind of spot here, everyone here agrees it is an urgent priority, to in the war as soon as possible. the us and the allies, the g7 group pushing for a hard line against russia, for russia to be condemned and isolated, to some degree the russian foreign minister who is, said vladimir putin here is something of an isolated figure, been placed together, you see him with some of the other foreign ministers, other countries here are not willing to sign up to quite such a confrontational approach, based at war in ukraine must end, perhaps there must be more suitable diplomacy to do it, and the real issues they want to talk about here, getting the global economy going again, dealing with acute problems with food security and energy supplies and looking at climate change, that those are being eclipsed by the concerns about ukraine and the kind of superpower

rival we have seen between the us and china, so there is a difference in perspective that has made it quite difficult for them to agree on a final communique. we believe they have agreed, and we believe all of them will sign up to a very strong statement on ukraine, but it's unlikely to be as strong as what is wanted by the united states and its allies, who argue ultimately that a lot of the problems they want to talk about here like food security are actually being massively accentuated by the ukraine work, so there is that differences in how you approach the ukraine war that makes it quite difficult find a consensus on other issues. we can speak now to stefan wolff, professor of international relations at birmingham university. interesting to look at those comments, the opening remarks saying it would be difficult for the g20 to move forward, for the world to move forward, into russia's what in ukraine is over, said by widodo.

similar by chancellor schultz of germany, the best way for the global economy to recover is the end russia's global war in ukraine. with russia's global war in ukraine. with russia in the room at the summit, how difficult will it be for an impactful statement when it concludes? that is going to make a difference? the concludes? that is going to make a difference? ~ , , , concludes? that is going to make a difference?— difference? the key issue here is the role of _ difference? the key issue here is the role of china, _ difference? the key issue here is the role of china, russia - difference? the key issue here is the role of china, russia is - difference? the key issue here is the role of china, russia is not . the role of china, russia is not going to vote in favour of a statement that will condemn the war in ukraine. the key issue is how far china is willing to go in order to accommodate the opposition to the strong russian aggression, and the closer china get to this position, the more difficult it will be for vladimir putin to continue the war he has conducted on february this year. he has conducted on february this ear. ~ , �*

of how china is looking at russia and putin in particular, so for me one of the key takeaway is from the biden and xi meeting, but also the meetings xi had with the australian prime minister and the french president, the german chancellor's visit to beijing a couple of weeks ago, all of that indicates that now we have clearly a dash train at us world and now russia has become a problem for both of them, rather than an accommodation, so i would expect a harder line on china in public and probably more informal pressure from beijing and moscow in private. pressure from bei'ing and moscow in rivate. ., ., pressure from bei'ing and moscow in rivate. ., . , pressure from bei'ing and moscow in rivate. ., ., , , private. how important is the summit for rishi sunak, _ private. how important is the summit for rishi sunak, representing - private. how important is the summit for rishi sunak, representing the - private. how important is the summit for rishi sunak, representing the uk| for rishi sunak, representing the uk after a turbulent time in politics here. it is very important for rishi sunak to send a message that the uk

is a serious global player, which has a stable domestic government, so i think we have had too much turbulence and people, economically, politically within the uk. that is of course makes it very difficult... the special trans— atlantic the special tra ns— atlantic relationship, the special trans— atlantic relationship, a key moment in the premiership to demonstrate the uk is back as a serious player globally.

the health secretary, steve barclay, will hold talks with union leaders today, with the growing prospect of further strikes by nhs workers. the royal college of nursing announced last week that many of its members had voted to walk out in a dispute over pay and staff shortages. 0ther unions are carrying out ballots. it's understood today's meeting will be focused on workforce issues in england. nhs providers is the membership organisation for nhs trusts in england. joining me now from its annual conference in liverpool is its interim chief executive saffron cordery. thank you for your time today. i spoke to several nurses last week on the day the results of the rcn royal couege the day the results of the rcn royal college of nursing ballot was announced, one of them said to me there are only so many times you can ask politely for an improvement on pay and conditions then you have to

take action. do you support the broad thrust of four nurses are saying? they feel the past, asked and asked again and are frustrated they have not got what they see as just pay for the job they do? we just pay for the 'ob they do? we totall just pay for the job they do? - totally understand the frustration that nurses and other health care staff are feeling, we've got rising cost of living, increase pressure on the front line, so we do see the challenges there. i am really delighted that the secretary of state and the royal college of nursing coming round the table today, because the critical thing is, for patients and for staff indeed, is that we actually resolve this dispute and seek to move on. that is the most important element here, trusts are doing everything they can to manage the existing demand across the nhs, and indeed to prepare for any industrial action.

they will be ready for this, what they would like to see its resolution.— they would like to see its resolution. ., , , ., resolution. the two sides are talkin: , resolution. the two sides are talking, that's _ resolution. the two sides are talking, that's always - resolution. the two sides are talking, that's always a - resolution. the two sides are talking, that's always a good | resolution. the two sides are - talking, that's always a good thing, but these are not formal pay talks, so what would you say to all those taking part in these conversations we'd say absolutely listen to each other and try and reach an agreement that averts this industrial action, but we mustn't forget what has brought us to this point, because nursing, nurse is choosing to strike for industrial action is a reflection of the very real challenges that we are seeing across the nhs. we've got a survey out today that says 85% of trust leaders are deeply concerned about the winter ahead, that comes from challenges around demand, challenges around workforce, including people the profession, because they've got to the end of the road with the level of pressure. it's also about people notjoining because they can

be paid more working in retail or hospitality. so got a whole host of issues there, long sense of real challenges and social care, which are impacting on the ability of hospitals, mental health trusts and other organisations, we have a whole host of challenges here. it isn't just about workforce, but workforce is certainly a real focus. the just about workforce, but workforce is certainly a real focus.— is certainly a real focus. the union re -s is certainly a real focus. the union reps saying _ is certainly a real focus. the union reps saying if _ is certainly a real focus. the union reps saying if the _ is certainly a real focus. the union reps saying if the workforce - is certainly a real focus. the union reps saying if the workforce has i is certainly a real focus. the union. reps saying if the workforce has the challenges, clearly that has an impact on the quality of care for patients in hospitals? with regards to any strike action, we know emergency care will be provided but what extent do think patients will be affected by action? it is what extent do think patients will be affected by action?— be affected by action? it is really difficult to tell _ be affected by action? it is really difficult to tell at _ be affected by action? it is really difficult to tell at this _ be affected by action? it is really difficult to tell at this stage - be affected by action? it is really difficult to tell at this stage the l difficult to tell at this stage the extent of the impact on patients. we know trust leaders who are currently

undergoing an exercise called arctic willow, which is looking at how they manage the winter on industrial action to help them put plans in place but we will see appointments rearranged a council which no one wants to see because we know people have waited so long, however that could well be the conscience of industrial action. do you think there is room in the middle for the two sides to meet? that is absolutely for them. the looming industrial action, it is a national dispute that is playing out locally, so we need the national parties to come round the table and

improve the situation locally, so i think it is absolutely for them to reach their agreement about what needs to happen. what we have to remember here is for trust leaders, for staff in the game, they are seeking to grapple with this and try to work their way through it. solutions from nationally. the latest employment figures show a rise in unemployment within the uk workforce for the three months to september. uemployment today stands at around three—point—six percent, that's up from three—point—five percent in august. although this does remain at a near 50 year low. wages are increasing too, by around five—point—six percent in the year to september. however, when adjusted for inflation, real term wages fell by two—point—seven percent. let's get more on this now with our employment correspondent, zoe conway, who's at eastgate indoor market in gloucesterfor us.

the only indoor market in the city, here since 1968, about 30 stalls selling everything from fresh meat, olives, vintage close, i've been chatting to some of the stallholders this morning about how business is doing, a couple of them saying it is not back to it was pre—pandemic, another has told me she is finding it so tough she is not necessarily even being able to pay the rent every month here, and is considering whether it is worth carrying on, so certainly challenging times for some of the businesses here. one of the interesting significant statistics that came out in that data this morning at about the economically inactive. according to the institute, looking at millions of people not any labour market due to sickness, that is certainly an issue here the city of gloucester will stop i'm joined now by vicky, you

and a former treasury official. testa m e nt to testament to the resilience of the british economy in the face of global challenges, let's take the first point of that. providing security to families. to what extent do you think our unemployment figures a good measure of how people are feeling about their economic well—being, given for example one in five people are now referred from a household where someone is employed. historically you would think unemployment, some evidence from psychological tests and the sort of thing shows people are deeply unhappy if they're unemployed, this

is true, but you have this wider spread of insecurity is low—paid, insecure employment, big increase in zero—hour contracts, it is where they been pushed into this, the insecurity is more complicated. throw in the final bit which is lots and lots of households with limited savings come up to about a third, essentially no savings in britain to stop this is a real source of insecurity for many people. the second part _ insecurity for many people. the second part of _ insecurity for many people. the second part of that statement from the chancellor, he talked about a low unemployment rate, being testament to the resilience of the british economy. to what extent is low unemployment equal resilience? this has been the challenge since the financial crisis all the way backin the financial crisis all the way back in 2008, were historically you

would think if they had had a big shock that, you would expect... that did not happen, what happened in britain was we had a spike in unemployment, and relate quite low paid jobs coming through. what we have now is lots of people imply, this is true, but they are employed in jobs they may not want very much, not well paid, and security arriving, it was mentioned by the corresponding there, the inactivity rate and all those people who are not unemployed, the labour market is now reaching record levels. it has gone up significantly since the pandemic, it is not entirely clear what is going on there, but some people talk about how it is the impact of punk over it, people being discouraged of working and lots of different factors coming into play. another source of potential insecurity for people.

from your perspective, you're seeing something different? that's right, theissue something different? that's right, the issue of the inflation we have as this is coming from the rest of the world, from russian dating ukraine, the impact that sat on natural gas price already going up, the food price rises we have seen across the globe, the impact of zero covid policy in china all pushing up prices of stuff we buy from the rest of the world into britain. that is what inflation is coming from. at that point, what government does to the economy, to its... doesn't affect inflation very much because of deal with this is trying to cut wages, pension benefits need to increase. potentially government to step in and trying directly intervene on price rises, as we've

seen with the energy price guarantee, which is now cushioning people for some rice there. that meets massive _ people for some rice there. that meets massive borrowing, doesn't? they are likely to expand the windfall tax on those incredible profits being made by all and just complete over the last year or so in the back of rising prices.— the back of rising prices. there also being _ the back of rising prices. there also being discussed... - the back of rising prices. there also being discussed... the - the back of rising prices. there - also being discussed... the amount of tax you pay an income, that will hit... 14-16,000,000,000 p a of tax you pay an income, that will hit... 11r—16,000,000,000 p a year. other options on the table, you don't have look straight into borrowing, there are other ways to manage the economy. you borrowing, there are other ways to manage the economy.— borrowing, there are other ways to manage the economy. you think any tax increases — manage the economy. you think any tax increases that _ manage the economy. you think any tax increases that come _ manage the economy. you think any tax increases that come will - manage the economy. you think any tax increases that come will target l tax increases that come will target the wealthier portion of society, we have this squeezed middle.

increased incomes people expect to bring in more money over time. for the moment, thanks very much. already on the front line of climate change, somalia is enduring its worst drought in a0 years. and the presence of one of the deadliest islamist extremist groups, al shabab, complicates the distribution of aid. the united nations is warning that half a million children under the age of five are at risk of dying by the middle of next year. somalia urgently needs another billion dollars in humanitarian aid. six weeks ago we brought you andrew harding's first report from the town of baidoa — he's now returned there, to the heart of the crisis, and a warning, you may find some of the images in his report distressing. we're tearing through baidoa.

0ur guards driving faster than on our last visit. the threat of ambushes by islamist militants is growing here. suddenly, we stumble across a funeral for a six—year—old boy who starved to death yesterday. 11 more children were buried here this week. but it's one particular family that's drawn us back to a desolate camp on the edge of town. fatuma mohammed is heating breakfast for her children, a cup of tea. they'll eat later in the day. nice to see you again. we've returned to see how the family is coping. hi, dahir, how are you? this was dahir six weeks ago, mourning his younger brother salat, who died of hunger on the journey into baidoa. today, he's in good spirits. it is milian feeling hot? but his two sisters are now struggling. they have suspected measles, perhaps pneumonia, too — the illnesses that seem to feast on hunger.

nice to see you again. we've returned to see how the family is coping. hi, dahir, how are you? this was dahir six weeks ago, mourning his younger brother salat, who died of hunger on the journey into baidoa. today, he's in good spirits. is milian feeling hot? but his two sisters are now struggling. they have suspected measles, perhaps pneumonia, too — the illnesses that seem to feast on hunger. and which lead so often to this. in a nearby hospital, two—year—old naima looks like a burn victim. in fact, her body is reacting painfully to prolonged starvation. as on our visit last month, the ward here is still full of such cases. does it feel to you like the world is paying attention now to somalia? now we can say that the attention of the international community is on somalia, especially the drought here. so you're getting more aid because of that? we are not getting enough, but we hope to come soon. it's a desperate situation.

back at the camp, 11—year—old dahir is heading to school. he's bright, alert. 0ur presence may be part of that. but around him, listless children and a chorus of coughing. the teacher tells us most of his class struggle to attend or to focus. many here will be stunted for life. across the road, a sudden crowd. a mood of near panic, as frustrated mothers try to register for new food hand—outs. but there's not enough. it's overwhelming. we are not getting the resources

on time with adequate also amounts. so you're only getting half what you need, is that right? that's exactly the right picture. we are getting half of what we want. later in the day, fatuma hauls water home for her children. dahir is quick to help out. "i'm getting by," she says. "but my children are not well." "i must work to make sure they survive." somalia is struggling right now, but it's worth remembering that before this last drought, dahir and his family were doing 0k. they had fields and crops. they had six cows and some goats. they were middle class farmers, suddenly left destitute, bankrupted by drought, by climate change. inside their hut, the girls slump. do you worry about yoursisters, dahir? yeah. "yeah, yes," he says.

what do you worry about? we are straying here towards painful memories of dahir�*s brother. "i just want my sisters to get better." he says it three times. an exhausted fatuma joins her daughters on their blanket. 0ne family in a nation still overwhelmed by hunger. andrew harding, bbc news, somalia. the leader of a union representing senior senior civil servants has called on rishi sunak to urgently reform the system for handling complaints against government ministers. dave penman, from the fda, has written to the prime minister, saying that a more transparent and independent process is needed. the letter follows a number of allegations of bullying by the deputy prime minister, dominic raab. mr sunak has previously said he doesn't recognise the claims. a missing dog has handed herself into a police station after getting lost out on a walk.

rosie the border collie became separated from her owner after being spooked by a firework. cctv camera captured the moment she walked through the automatic doors at loughborough police station. rosie has since been reunited with her family. it's time for a look at the weather. it isa it is a at its finest. good morning. it is a at its finest. good morning. it is a wet start to the day. we have a line of rain moving on from the west drifting north—eastwards, heavyin the west drifting north—eastwards, heavy in places and state winds ahead of it and along it. behind it, the wind will ease, we are looking at blustery showers and sunny spells. temperatures today 11 to

about 1k degrees north to south. as we head into the evening, the wind will strengthen across shetland, gusts of 60 miles per, the rain will push in. for the rest of us, clear skies, some showers, heavy, with the odd rumble of thunder across the south—west of england. it is going to be colder than last night especially in glens in scotland and also across parts of northern england. tomorrow, rain in the northern isles moving away. a lot of dry weather, some sunshine, a few showers, but the cloud will gather, the rain comes in, wind strengthens from the south—west and temperature similar to today. hello this is bbc news: the headlines: rishi sunak criticises russia's �*barbaric�* war in ukraine as the g20 gets under way in bali as uk unemployment rises

slightly in the three months to september — regular pay falls due to the cost of living crisis the health secretary will speak to union bosses today amid the growing prospect of further strikes by nhs workers. a global milestone — as the world's population passes 8 billion people and in her new book, michelle obama reveals how she struggled with her appearance but learned how to love herself a black president, an african—american family in the white house, they saw themselves in one of the most powerful positions on earth. the un has announced that the global population ukraine's senior military commander has told his us counterpart that ukrainian soldiers are determined to liberate all occupied lands — and won't accept compromises with russia. last week general mark milley — who's the chairman of the us joint chiefs of staff — suggested it might be time to negotiate an end to the war with russia. 0ur correspondent catherine bya—ruhanga is in kyiv and shejoins me now.

that statement from ukraine's top soldier, very much chimes with what president zelensky was saying to other leaders at the g20 summit. ukraine is definitely setting out its position over talks about possible negotiations between ukraine and russia. yesterday, ukraine's army chief was speaking to his us counterpart and in that conversation, after that conversation, after that conversation, he said he told the general that ukraine servicemen accept no talks, no agreements and no compromise decisions. this is after the general had suggested that perhaps a winter which is a difficult time to continue fighting might be the right time to start thinking about negotiations with russia. ukraine did not talk those words kindly, and resident zelensky is still here in kyiv but addressing leaders in bali, making similar

suggestions. he said that war must come to an end but he said ukraine should not have to compromise over its territorial integrity, it sovereignty, and its conscience. again, ukraine setting out its position. it is interesting that in recent days, we have been hearing about possible us pressure on ukraine to start thinking about negotiations. yesterday, the head of the cia was meeting his russian counterpart in turkey. the us said it is not trying to find ways of kick—starting negotiations with ukraine and that meeting was simply about trying to prevent russia from using a nuclear weapon in this war. 0nce using a nuclear weapon in this war. once again, we are seeing a movement, discussions about possible negotiations between russia and ukraine. it is difficult to see how russia would accept such agreements, would meet such demands from

ukraine. ukraine insisted that russia should move all its troops out of the country, something that would be very difficult for russia to agree to. ? it sounds as though president zelensky is looking for reassurance from other world leaders to say we will back you. taste reassurance from other world leaders to say we will back you.— to say we will back you. we will back what _ to say we will back you. we will back what you _ to say we will back you. we will back what you want _ to say we will back you. we will back what you want to - to say we will back you. we will back what you want to do. - to say we will back you. we will back what you want to do. the | to say we will back you. we will. back what you want to do. the g20 summit is a — back what you want to do. the g20 summit is a difficult _ back what you want to do. the g20 summit is a difficult forum - back what you want to do. the g20 summit is a difficult forum for - summit is a difficult forum for ukraine because although you have western countries like the uk and the us that support ukraine, you do have other countries that are hesitant, especially countries in the southeast asia region, indonesia, even china itself that still maintain strong relationships with russia. we do still have russia represented at the summit with its foreign minister sergey lavrov who is due to address the summit. it is a difficult platform, it difficult

summit for ukraine. nevertheless, the uk, the us, standing firmly behind ukraine. they continue to pledge military assistance, humanitarian assistance, they will still help ukraine and its fight against russian aggression. thank ou ve against russian aggression. thank you very much- — the un has announced that the global population has hit eight billion. demographers chose 15 november to mark this milestone — though it could be up to a year or two on either side. in 1999 and 2011, the un christened several children as the world's six and seven billionth. so what do their lives tell us about the state and future of the global population? the bbc�*s population correspondent stephanie hegarty spoke to them to find out. the day 0shi was born was extra special. she was one of a handful of children named the world's seven billionth baby by the un.

11 years later, the world's population has hit 8 billion. bangladesh where she lives has 17 million more people and it is still growing. but the number of children women are having here has fallen from six in the 1980s to two today thanks to girls�* education. bangladesh now has to harness the potential of its young educated people like 0shi.

the world's population is still growing, but in a lot of places, it is not too many people that they are worried about but too few. here in bosnia—herzegovina the population is already declining because of low fertility and emigration, it is set to half in the next 15 years. in 1999, this man was named the world's 6 billionth baby by then, un secretary—general kofi annan. at 23, he is an economics graduate but he is looking for work and worried

he might have to go abroad. this could become the norm as global population growth slows down over the next 60 years. it is likely to peak around 10 billion by 2080 according to the un. voters in arizona have chosen a democrat as their new governor, defeating a trump—backed candidate. katie hobbs is projected to have beaten kari lake, a high— profile supporter of donald trump

and denier of the 2020 election result. arizona is regarded as a battleground state and is expected to play an important role in the next presidential electon in 202a. michelle obama has admitted to the bbc that she struggles with negative thoughts about her appearance. in her new book, the former us first lady reveals how donald trump's victory — winning the us presidency — �*still hurts�*. she was speaking exclusively to naga munchetty. but that's that point in time when you have to ask yourself, "was it worth it? did we make a dent? did it matter?" and when i'm in my darkest moment, right, my most irrational place, i could say, "well, maybe not. maybe we weren't good enough." yet the world we're in today here in the uk and in the united states has become more and more polarised, particularly when it comes to politics. people seem divided. they seem angry. what, in your opinion, is needed to bring people

back together, to let them have pleasant discourse, agreeable disagreements on a middle ground? well, leadership matters. the voices at the top matter. if we continue to be susceptible to voices that want to lead by fear and division, we will follow suit. that's why government matters. democracy matters, voting matters. so i think it starts with having leadership that reflects the direction that we want to go in as a people. one of the biggest challenges you refer to when you talk about fear, you say, "the most anxious i've ever been in my life was when barack obama told me for the first time that he wanted to run for president of the united states. "and it's strange that i could have altered the course of history with my fear." you know, you could have said no. you know you had that option

and it would have stood. are you pleased you said yes? iam. i think, to take a moment to talk about the man that i love, i think that barack was a consequential leader. i think, you know, for so many young people, notjust here in america, but around the world, they grew up knowing only a black president, an african—american family in the white house. they saw themselves in one of the most powerful positions on earth. if you just count that alone, not to mention all of his accomplishments from a policy perspective, it was absolutely worth taking that leap of faith. michelle's book �*the light we carry�* is out today. let's have a look at the sport. good morning... good morning.

the countdown continues to the football world cup, with six days to go until england and wales play their first matches in qatar. both teams are flying out to today. for wales, it'll be their first world cup finals since 1958 — and it's a challenge they're relishing as george zeelynski reports: bags packed and ready to go. gareth bale arriving in wales ahead of the team's departure to qatar. hi. hiya, bud. how are you doing? a chance to reunite with team—mates and staff as the reality of wales' involvement at their first world cup in 64 years starts to sink in. we normally have kind of that build—up into a major tournament, where, yeah, some of the boys were even playing late last night so, um, yeah, it's a bit of a different feeling. but i think, yeah, evenjust having training this morning, the buzz was there. everybody was just that little bit more sharp, that little bit more ready and, yeah, looking forward to getting on the plane and getting out there, and i think then it will really start to sink in and feel

like we are really at a world cup. you 0k? gareth, how are you, son? 64 years ago, it was the likes of cliffjones and terry medwin leading the line for wales at a world cup. both met bale to offer words of advice and encouragement. a chance for the team of 2022 to learn a few things from the class of �*58. it was great just to get some stories on how they felt, what they kind of went through, and, yeah, justjoking about some of the... there was a story that they came back and somebody was like, "oh, where have you been, on holiday?" and he was like, "no, i'vejust come back from the world cup." so just how times have changed now, where we are followed in the spotlight, to how it was there. it all gets very real from next monday, though, in that first group game against the usa. george zielenski, bbc news, in the vale of glamorgan. before flying out, england had a special visitor at st. george's park last night the prince of wales dropped by to wish them all the best. he's the president of the football association

and presented the players with their shirt numbers. he's previously confirmed he won't be at the world cup for any of the matches because of a busy diary. he had this message for the england players: iam here i am here to point out that the rest of the country is behind you, we are all rooting for you, enjoy it. and these are pictures we've had come through this morning — of england leaving.... plenty of support for them. theirfirst group game is on monday as i said against iran before matches against the united states and wales. "the glazor's don't care about the club" on a sporting front, those are the latest comments to be released from the cristiano ronaldo interview. he made headlines yesterday after telling talktv he felt "betrayed" by manchester united and claimed they were trying to force him out. we've now heard ronaldo call united a marketing

club focused on money. as well as criticising the owners the glazers — he's also taken a swipe at former team—mates wayne rooney and gary neville who've been critical of him at times — saying they're doing it to be more famous, and they're not his friends. talking of potentially strained friendships this is bruno fernandez, ronaldo's manchester united teammate, joining up with him and the rest of the portugal team for the world cup. you can make what you want of this short exchange. it's not clear what was said but that video was posted by portugal's social media channels. as for manchester united — they say they'll consider their response to what ronaldo's saying after the full facts haves been established, which we assume is once the interviews gone out in full. england's women need to turn professional if they�* re to close the gap on new zealand and australia in rugby league. that's according to departing head coach craig richards. england's dream of reaching a first ever women's rugby league world cup final were dashed in york. new zealand who turned professional earlier this year, fought back to reach

their sixth successive final. they won by 20 points to 6 last night. england captain emily rudge hopes that despite the loss there will be a lasting legacy in this country. that's all the sport for now. the high court in cardiff will today hear arguments for and against the introduction of mandatory sex education in schools in wales. ajudicial review against the welsh government has been brought by a group of parents concerned that, unlike in england, the lessons are now compulsory from the age of 3. 0ur wales correspondent tomos morgan is in cardiff tell us more about the background to all of this. this tell us more about the background to all of this. , ., , ., , all of this. this group of parents is the relationship _

all of this. this group of parents is the relationship in _ all of this. this group of parents is the relationship in sexual- is the relationship in sexual education is now compulsory from the age of three. it was made compulsory as part of the new curriculum for primary schools in september and is due to be introduced in secondary schools next year. from now on, parents will not be allowed to take their children out of class if they decide. in england, when it comes to relationships, that is mandatory across primary school and secondary levels, but when it comes to sex education, parents can withdraw their children from primary class. it is not compulsory in scotland. wales is a different case from the rest of the uk. this group of parents are fighting under the banner of public child protection wales, mandatory is at the heart of the dispute with the welsh government. they were granted the judicial review in may, and before the school term started, they try to put an injunction in place to block this new tuition from coming to force, but thejudge this new tuition from coming to force, but the judge did this new tuition from coming to force, but thejudge did not this new tuition from coming to force, but the judge did not grant that saying it would cause substantial disruption just days

before the new term started. this new curriculum, has been supported by the union, and although the mandatory element is the main concern of this action group, they have other concerns. they claim children will be exposed to inappropriate themes from an early age and see what is happening as the sexualisation of children. 0n the welsh government website the new curriculum is outlined as to what could be taught at which age group with the different phases, three, seven and 11 years old. from the age of three, children may be told terminology for body parts. for the age of seven, phase two, they may be told the awareness of how people can feel attracted to each other and at 11 years old they may understand and get to the use of contraception and the legal age of consent. the welsh government has urged practitioners to consider learners develop mental appropriateness, some children may

mature at different ages, different things will be taught at different ages. when it comes to those groups claims about the sexualisation of children, the welsh government, the education minister issued a very strongly worded statement back august. he said that the claims were profoundly wrong, deeply dangerous, and has said that he is confident that the changes are proportionate and unlawful. today is the first day of the two—dayjudicial review. ? thank you very much. it was a moment of footballing history... when diego maradona scored his �*hand of god�* goal that helped knock england out of the world cup in 1986. now, the ball that was used in that game is up for auction — and is expected to fetch up to three million pounds. it�*s just one of the items going under the hammer this week, as jo black reports... maradona just walked away from hoddle, then. 36 years ago, and long before the introduction of var, a moment which still haunts english players and fans to this day.

in the world cup quarterfinal in mexico city, it is 0—0 between england and argentina, until this now infamous moment. diego maradona punches the ball past peter shilton. this controversial game saw maradona branded both a cheat and a genius within a matter of minutes, because moments later, he delivered this tantalising display of footballing prowess. you have to say that�*s magnificent. a goal which years later would go on to be named "goal of the century." that very ball which the number 10 used so menacingly is owned by the tunisian referee who took charge of the tie and did not spot the handball. we filmed itjust recently at wembley, on the day it was announced it is being sold at auction. it may have seen better days, but could fetch up to £3 million. the referee picked the ball up at the end of the game and can be

seen carrying the ball off, and he popped it in a cupboard and it has been there ever since, for 36 years. he�*s in his 70s now and decided now is the time to sell. you can see from the coverage that the ball has attracted since we announced it, just how important it is to people and the history of the world cup. it is only right that hopefully it will go on to be displayed in one of the museums around the country or around the world, really. in the same auction, there are hundreds of other items from across the globe and from days gone by. from england�*s 1966 victory, there are signed photographs, the mascot world cup willie merchandise... 0riginally minted in �*66. ..and someone has already bid thousands of pounds for this 1p piece, said to be the penny used by the referee for the coin toss at that game. this is an argentina shirt from 1986. this �*86 argentina shirt is identical to maradona�*s,

which sold for £7 million earlier this year. but number eight, nestor clausen, never played in the quarterfinal, so this is likely to go for a much more modest price. but there is a story that the team bought this strip during an ad hoc shopping trip, after the shirts they had brought to the tournament were not suitable for the weather in mexico. argentina went out to the �*86 world cup with heavy duty shirts. the heat in mexico was too much so they went shopping for a lighter weight kit, just around the sports shops of mexico, the kit man and maradona, who famously saw the blue shirt, said, "i like that one, we will beat england in that." they bought the kit, tacked the argentina badge on, had to make do with some american football style glittery transfer numbers on the back, so that is quite unusual. of course, it is lot no 295 which is causing much excitement, the ball used

in that 1986 quarterfinal. this isjust a replica. the real one is at an undisclosed location and its current estimate is £2.5 million—£3 million. although it is a bit battered and no longer inflates, it is an iconic piece of sporting history and represents a game and a player who will never be forgotten. jo black, bbc news, wellingborough. if you regularly practice yoga then you�*re probably familiar with the move "downward—facing dog." but now there�*s a trend that gives the phrase a whole new meaning. the organisers say it�*s beneficial for both the humans and canines who are taking part. molly brewer reports. and when we are lying down, do be prepared, they probably will come and jump on your face, nibble your ears and your toes, so be prepared for all the puppy love. yoga but with a fluffy twist,

with literal downward facing dogs. the puppies just run around. as you can see, theyjust make everyone so happy. and i always tell people at the start of the classes, feel free to join in if and when. if you want to sit with the dogs the whole time, feel free to do so. this unique practice is a combination of animal therapy and yoga, which aims to help with anxiety and stress. not everyone has access to pets and animals. especially people like students, who might be away for uni and might be missing their pets. so it has great mental health benefits well. it really helps with the puppies' socialisation process, so it helps puppies get used to being around people, being in a new environment, before they go to their new home. but being puppies with still a lot to learn, there�*s always a risk of a few accidents. but people here say that is a small price to pay. anyone who�*s had a dog or a puppy knows that they will

wee or they will bark sometimes. there is an understanding, yeah. it isjust really nice, - it brings you all the serotonin and good vibes and the puppies are so adorable. _ she is a big dog fan. yes _ this is a dream come true! seriously. i have been stealing puppies all session. molly brewer, bbc news. sign me up for that yoga class, i would spend all my time playing with the poppies. it is time for the weather forecast. wasn�*t that gorgeous? we have had some heavy rain moving west to east from the course of this morning, it is because of the weather fronts which are attached to this area of low pressure in the atlantic. they
