prices are rising at their fastest rate in more than a0 years — new figures show inflation is now11.1%. the soaring cost of energy and food is behind the rise in inflation, which the prime minister has described as the enemy. it makes people poorer, that is what inflation does, and it's the enemy that we need to face down. i want to make sure that we do that, and we do it as quickly as possible. nato now says the missile that killed two people in poland was probably fired by ukrainian air defences — we report from the scene. we're very near to the ukrainian border here, about ten miles away, and people living in this area had been concerned they would feel the impact of this war at some point.

the deputy prime minister asks for an independent investigation after two formal complaints have been made against him about his behaviour. donald trump confirms he will run again for the white house in 202a. and lift off of artemis i! we rise together, back to the moon and beyond. and it's third time lucky, as nasa finally manage to launch their artemis one rocket on a new mission to the moon. and coming up on the bbc news channel. four days until the world cup new controversies in qatar, claims of fake fans and camera crews accosted, as england prepare to train for the first time.

good afternoon. prices are rising at their fastest rate for more than a0 years, with the soaring cost of energy and food largely responsible. the inflation rate hasjumped to 11.1% in the year to october — that's up from 10.1% the previous month. it puts more pressure on the chancellor ahead of his autumn statement tomorrow, in which he's expected to announce tax rises and spending cuts. here's our economics correspondent andy verity. at this environmentally—friendly brewery and pub in stroud in gloucestershire, the raw ingredients aren't getting any cheaper. it wasn't long ago when the value of the pound really dropped, and overnight the prices went up 10, 12%. devaluation of the pound in the past year means businesses have to pay more in pounds to buy goods priced in dollars or euros, from hops to oil and gas. how much do you pay

for a bag of these? it varies anywhere between sort of £15—£40 a kilo. the biggest rise is power — electricity has doubled over the last year, gas has gone up by at least half. our raw materials, so malt and hops, cans, labels, they have gone up between 10—15%. global inflationary pressure is now coming home in higher wage costs, as employers pay more to compete for an unexpectedly small pool of available workers. labour, we are a living wage employer, lowest wages have gone up by 10%. for us that's at least 40, 50, £60,000 a year additional costs, which means we have to sell somewhere between £150,000, £200,000 worth more beer to cover the additional wages cost. but some global inflationary pressures have recently been easing. shipping goods like beer across the world now cost less than a third of what it did in 2021.

that is one reason the bank of england expects double digit inflation to drop back to single digits in the spring. for now, though, it's all about those price hikes. milk, butter, dairy foods, bread. filling up the car. strangely, fruit teas. they have gone from £1 to £2.25, and you think how can that be? . until recently, most of the inflationary pressure was global. the price of food, the price of fuel — there is not much the bank of england can do about those global prices, but what they are now worried about is that inflation is becoming embedded domestically in the price of service, like a restaurant meal. the uk is not the only country hit by soaring inflation, it is even higher in germany and italy, which depend far more on imported russian gas. what's people's number one anxiety is the rising cost of things,

that is what is eating into people's living standards. the chancellor rightly described it as insidious. it makes people poorer, that is what inflation does and it is the enemy we need to face down. we know that the tories have crashed the economy, and to make matters worse, families will be incredibly worried about rising inflation that we have seen announced today. it is already a really worrying time. labour's plan will be to get the economy growing and we will be making different choices in the statement coming up in parliament. to stop inflation bedding down in the domestic economy, interest rates were expected after the mini budget to have to rise to 6%. now they are expected to peak in the spring at 4.5%, much higher than a year ago, but lower than many economists feared. andy verity, bbc news, stroud. so how are households coping with the spiralling cost of living? 0ur consumer affairs correspondent colletta smith has spent the morning in gloucester talking to people there about how higher prices are affecting them. if it felt like a never ended tidal

wave of price rises for your household, then you are not alone. it has been a long slog sense we hit those record rates injanuary, and we have had month after month after month of new records. the country's top statisticians measure hundreds of items right across the economy every month, and then put out a figure for how much the average price is going up by. this month it is 11.1% which is crazy, so what is going on? . is 11.1% which is crazy, so what is going on? -_ is 11.1% which is crazy, so what is going on? -— is 11.1% which is crazy, so what is going on? . is 11.1% which is crazy, so what is anoinon?. , ., , going on? . everywhere you go it is auoin u- going on? . everywhere you go it is going on a — going on? . everywhere you go it is going on a lot _ going on? . everywhere you go it is going up a lot more _ going on? . everywhere you go it is going up a lot more in _ going on? . everywhere you go it is going up a lot more in the - going on? . everywhere you go it is going up a lot more in the pences, | going up a lot more in the pences, and the gas and electric, we even like are cutting down on using the heating at the moment. what i want to know is why is inflation going up so high. to know is why is inflation going up so hiuh. , , , . to know is why is inflation going up sohiuh. ,, _ . so high. this big price increase this month _ so high. this big price increase this month is _ so high. this big price increase this month is was _ so high. this big price increase this month is was a _ so high. this big price increase this month is was a of - so high. this big price increase this month is was a of the - so high. this big price increase| this month is was a of the huge increase we saw in energy bills in october but it is notjust households that are facing those price, businesses are too, and they are passing on the costs tost as

customers by upping their price, the reason behind all of this, is global gas and oil price, that have really been sky rocketing from the beginning of the year as we came out of the pandemic and then went straight into the war in ukraine. it is probably spending an extra £40 a week on a full shop. which is, almost a couple of hundred pound a month. what i wanted to know is when will prices start to fall again. the bank of england hope by raising interest rates they will slow down inflation, we are seeing global food prices start to fall sow that might give us a bit of relief in the supermarkets but it is worth remembering, that everyone when inflation begins to slow down, that doesn't mean the prices will fall in the shops, they willjust be increasing by a little less. petrol, so, i drive the kids to to and from school, so it is expensive, i would like to know how we can beat

inflation. ~ .,, i would like to know how we can beat inflation. ~ , .,, ., , inflation. most people have been makin: inflation. most people have been making the _ inflation. most people have been making the choices _ inflation. most people have been making the choices for _ inflation. most people have been making the choices for month, i making the choices for month, cutting back on luxury, the coffee, the meals out, the take away, only using the car when you have to, cutting down own energy in your house to keep on top of those bills, of course a pay rise would help, but lots of economists think that that will mean businesses will put their prices up more to cover those wage bills. and if you are lucky enough to have some savings, don't forget interest rates are going up. so those savings will be earning a little bit more. coletta smith. bbc news in gloucester. gf 0ur economics correspondent andy verity is here. andy, 11.1% inflation — and that's the backdrop for tomorrow's autumn statement from the chancellor? it really is. the bank of england have predicted it would peak at round 11% so it is not expected in that regard but it has happened sooner than most were expecting, the average forecast was for 10.7% this time round. it could get higher than

len.1, we don't know how lit play out in the next few months but the prediction is it will fall next year, so lit drop back in to single digits in the back half of next year. what we don't yet know that we need to learn tomorrow in the autumn statement, is what kind of level of government support for households we will have after april, because jeremy hunt has said he won't do the same level of support then, that the truss government was planning, we expect a bit more targeted on poorer households, which may be appropriate given that the 0ns put out new figures showing they are experiencing a greater rate of inflation. nato now says the missile that killed two people yesterday was caused by ukrainian air defences, rather than russia. moscow had already strongly denied it was responsible for the rocket that hit the village of przewodow, in the east of poland near the border with ukraine. 0ur correspondent danjohnson

is close to the scene. this could have marked a serious step up, a serious escalation in this conflict. there is today, to some degree people breathing a sigh of relief, we are being told this was most likely an accident not an intentional target. nonetheless lives were lost and people who live with the ukrainian conflict on their doorstep know now the risks are real. this is where the war in ukraine spilled over on to polish turf and claimed polish lives. two civilians were killed here in the explosion yesterday afternoon, on this farm, close to the border with ukraine. the questions now are what landed here, and who fired it. this man lives close by, he heard the explosion and says his family were really scared. he said one of those killed was a farmer, the other

worked in the village shop. there is a huge investigation, involving polish military experts who are assessed what caused this explosion and where it came from. this lunchtime, the polish president said what happened here appeared to be an unfortunate accident, and not an intentional attack. a statement echoed at nato headquarters. irate an intentional attack. a statement echoed at nato headquarters. we have no indication — echoed at nato headquarters. we have no indication this _ echoed at nato headquarters. we have no indication this was _ echoed at nato headquarters. we have no indication this was the _ echoed at nato headquarters. we have no indication this was the result - echoed at nato headquarters. we have no indication this was the result of - no indication this was the result of a deliberate attack. and we have no indication that russia is from pair —— preparing offensive military actions against nato. more military teams are coming into join the investigation, which is taking place at the farm just a few hundred metres up that road. this is as close as we are allowed to get but we are very near to the ukrainian border here, just about 10 miles away and people living in this area had been concerned they would feel the impact of this war at some point. russia attacked cities across

to people here, and elsewhere, as long as this conflict continues, there is a risk even indirectly of others being caught up in it. dan johnson, bbc news in eastern poland. our diplomatic correspondent paul adams is here. are we now getting a clearer picture of what happened? depends on who you ask but i think we are. as dan said last night there was a real sense of dread, that something people warned about, for months as a result of russia's invasion might finally have come to pass, pretty quickly last night. experts started looking at the fragments of the missile involved, and it became fairly quickly apparent that was likely not to have been part of a russia cruise missile but a russian made but likely ukrainian fired missile, but a russian made but likely ukrainianfired missile, an but a russian made but likely ukrainian fired missile, an s—300 that led them to believe this was probably a fragment of a ukrainian

missile. now, the ukrainian foreign minister called that a russian conspiracy theory but overnight we got the steady drip of other people lending their weight to this theory. notablyjoe biden, the polish president saying there was no sign this was part of a russian attack, it was likely a ukrainian missile, as you heard, the nato secretary—general pretty much endorsing that view, ukrainian officials are still up to now saying they have contradictory ever and they have contradictory ever and they want to see what evidence nato has before we draw any firm conclusion, but the context of this is the fact that for the last eight months or so, russia has been attacking ukraine relentlessly, and mr stoltenberg said this was not ukraine's fault, russia, he said, must stop this senseless war. qm. must stop this senseless war. 0k, paul must stop this senseless war. 0k, paul, thank— must stop this senseless war. 0k, paul, thank you. _ ok, paul, thank you. the justice secretary, dominic raab says he's asked for an independent investigation into two formal complaints that have been made against him

about his behaviour. mr raab, who's also deputy prime minister, says one complaint relates to his time as foreign secretary, and one relating to a previous stint as justice secretary. he's rejected the allegations, saying he's never tolerated bullying. our political correspondent iain watson reports. the justice secretary thejustice secretary has asked for an investigation. this one, though, is rather unconventional, he has asked for an independent probe into his own conduct, following allegations in the media that he bullied staff. asked about these allegation, this was the prime minister's line. i allegation, this was the prime minister's line.— allegation, this was the prime minister's line. i don't recognise the characterisation _ minister's line. i don't recognise the characterisation of— minister's line. i don't recognise| the characterisation of dominic's behaviour, and i was not wear and am not aware of any formal complaints about that. ., ., not aware of any formal complaints about that. ., ._ ., ., not aware of any formal complaints aboutthat. ., ., ., . ., about that. today, all that changed. in a letter about that. today, all that changed. in a letter to — about that. today, all that changed. in a letter to the _ about that. today, all that changed. in a letter to the prime minister, . in a letter to the prime minister, dominic raab said i have been notified two separate complaints

starts right now. claiming that "america's comeback starts right now." but mr trump has found himself being blamed for the poor performance of the republican party at the recent midterm elections. our north america correspondent, nomia iqbal reports. in front of his crowd, inside his home, donald trump officially announced his comeback. america's comeback starts right now. cheering. it was classic trump. he painted america as a dystopia that only he could rescue. because this is notjust a campaign. this is a quest to save our country. talking about saving our country... he boasted about his time in office... everybody was thriving like never before. ..had a go at president biden... now we have a president who falls asleep at global conferences.

..and hit out at the various legal investigations into him... and i'm a victim. i will tell you, i'm a victim. many of donald trump's supporters were celebrating outside mar a lago when he made his announcement. he is hugely popular here in his home state. but given this was his big moment, his speech appeared low in energy. many members of his own party are questioning whether his political influence is fading. many republicans blame him for their party's underwhelming performance in the midterm elections. most of the candidates mr trump publicly endorsed in crucial races lost, and his potential rival, 44—year—old florida governor ron desantis, had this to say after being called average by mr trump. i think what you learn is all that's just noise. and really what matters is are you leading? are you getting in front of issues? are you delivering results for people? and are you standing up for folks? and if you do that, then none of that stuff matters.

donald trump's announcement is a way for him to seize early momentum in the race, but there's a long way to go. and with his legal problems mounting, it may impact him both personally and politically. nomia iqbal, bbc news, florida. the time is 13:20. our top story this lunchtime. prices are rising at their fastest rate in 40 years with inflation now 11.1%. and supply problems of eggs are leading to some shops rationing how many customers can buy. coming up on the bbc news channel. 21—time grand slam champion novak djokovic is likely to bid for a 10th australian open title in the new year after the australian government overturn his visa ban. it's been third time lucky for the us space agency nasa,

which has finally managed to launch its artemis rocket on a journey to the moon. artemis will send an uncrewed capsule on a 26 day test trip around the moon — a first step to taking astronauts back to the lunar surface by 2025. this morning's launch from florida followed two previous attempts in august and september that were aborted during countdown because of technical problems. our science editor rebecca morelle is at goonhilly earth station in cornwall which is tracking the rocket�*s progress. that is right to commit this huge dish behind me is receiving signals from the spacecraft right now. this mission has taken decades and involved thousands of people and cost billions. they have been to failed launch attempts but today was the day, we finally got to see the sprocket fly. the start of a new age

of space exploration. —— see this rocket fly. it was the moment they'd been waiting for. and here we go. four stage engine start. three, two, one... and liftoff of artemis 1! after months of setbacks, nasa's most powerful rocket was finally on its way. the start of humanity's return to the lunar surface. we rise together, back to the moon, and beyond. took a long time coming to get here. last time we were on the moon, apollo 17. and we still have a long ways to go. and this is just the test flight. but the run up to launch wasn't without drama. during fueling a hydrogen leak was spotted, so a team was sent to the launch pad to repair it. then, something unexpected. they reported that they had an issue that was actually a bad ethernet switch. a radar station essential for tracking the rocket and destroying it if it veered off

course, lost its signal. but a last minute fix worked, and the rocket was on its way. no people are on board this time, but this test flight will show if it's safe for astronauts. the ultimate plan is to land the first woman and first person of colour on the moon. i wanted to be an astronaut from the time that i was five years old. and, you know, for anybody that has a dream or some kind of aspiration, if they see somebody that they can identify with a little bit, it puts them into a totally different perspective where they can say, well, wait a minute, that person was just like me and they did it, so i can do it to. and in a remote part of cornwall, the goonhilly earth station has an important role to play. this huge dish is part of a network of antennas that will be tracking the orion spacecraft. this will help nasa to work out very precisely exactly where the spacecraft is and how fast it's moving as it heads to the moon. and this was the moment the signal came through.

we have aos on orion. good carrier level. this doesn't look like very much, i think, to most people, but to communication engineers, this is pure magic. what you would normally see is just a flat line of noise. but we're picking up the signal from space, from the artemis spacecraft. with a last look back at the earth, the spacecraft now has a 26 dayjourney ahead. this isjust the beginning, the start of a million mile journey that's being described as apollo for a new generation. rebecca morelle, bbc news. asda and lidl are limiting the number of eggs customers can buy. there are industry wide supply problems exacerbated by the recent outbreak of avian flu which has led to hundreds of thousands of hens being culled. our business correspondent emma simpson is here. how big a problem is this? clearly

there are real issues and many shoppers will have noticed apps on supermarket shelves for eggs. there are a number of factors going on, free range egg producers saying that they are not making any money because of soaring costs for things like feed and energy and some are leaving the industry or pausing production and also avian flu has been around for the past few years in the uk and has caused some producers to cut back. so we have a situation where the number of packed eggs fell by 10% in the last quarter year—on—year. the situation is being compounded by this severe outbreak of avian flu and that is now starting to be felt on the shelves. the retail industry body says supermarkets are working hard with suppliers to minimise the impact on customers and as for the government, defra i sang there is no shortage, that with 38 million hands these

problems are not likely to affect overall supply but that supply seems a lot tighter than it has been. emma, thank you. the world cup kicks off in qatar this weekend, with attention focussed on the country's human rights record. qatari society has a strict interpretation of islamic law — and an ancient tribal system. our religion editor aleem maqbool has been looking at what that means — in particular — for women there and the gay community. qatar wants to show off its fun—loving side ahead of the world cup, its modernity and its hospitality. this little country, with huge oil and gas reserves, was economically catapulted into the future. but underneath its bedrock remains cultural and religious traditionalism. it's difficult to speak to people freely without permission from the authorities. but these students in doha's education city talked of their excitement.

it's definitely a marking of history for the arabs, and we're all very proud, especially as a qatari, i'm very proud that my country is hosting such a big event. qatar has repeatedly said that it will be welcoming of all people, of all races, of all sexual orientations. and i think that a lot of the people here in qatar know that this is a great opportunity for qatar, who have seemingly been in the shadows for a really long time. but there are, of course, qataris who remain in the shadows. i would like my existence not to be illegal in this country. i would like something that would say that i can be gay and not worry about being killed. aziz is gay in a country where homosexuality is against the law. he couldn't meet in person and needed his face and voice disguised on a video call. the law's on your side when you're outside of qatar, if somebody attacks you, you'd go to the police station, you would be protected.

whereas here, if something happens to me, i'll get blamed. zainab now lives here in the uk, but even then she's also worried about revealing her identity because of possible repercussions for family back in qatar. she, like aziz, says she thought about suicide. for her, it was the so called guardianship rules for women that had an impact. for every single major life decision you required explicit written permission from a male guardian. and if you don't get that permission, you cannot take that life decision, whether it's enrolling at university and studying abroad, travelling, getting married or even getting divorced. zainab says she feels many qataris look at women's rights somehow being a western idea that clashes with islamic values. within decades, energy reserves turned qatar's population from among the poorest in the world

to the richest. for all the technological advancements, society is based on a traditional tribal system, one that remains religiously very conservative. some of those negatively affected by the current laws told us they worried a successful world cup could make it even less likely that qatari society will change. aleem maqbool, bbc news. as the build up to the tournament itself continues, the england and wales squads are taking part in their first training sessions today after arriving in the capital doha last night. they play their first games on monday. our correspondent alex howell is at the england training camp just south of doha. i'm here at the england training camp next to the team hotel in a

more remote part of doha. the team arrived here last night and wales got here early this morning. they're both preparing for games on the same day and on the same group but their sketches are different, wales have gone to a local community event to meet some local children and when england landed i got to speak to captain harry kane and we spoke about how strange the build—up is to about how strange the build—up is to a world cup. such a short period of time but the excitement as they are. todayis time but the excitement as they are. today is the first day of training, they will be preparing for the game on monday against iran injust they will be preparing for the game on monday against iran in just five days and that is the same day that wales take on the usa. they will have to deal with the heat, it is 32 degrees here and gareth southgate has just five days to get his message across to the players but of course there is a lot of excitement because it is a world cup but in 13 days all eyes will be in this group

when england and wales take each other on and what could be the group
