after the stoppage in play for some extra hydration, the main mangoes down in the box. with nerves on the edge, elation for the fans and some salvation. well, as the old cliche goes, football is a game of two halves. wales�* superstar gareth bale to the rescue once again. and in fairness, the hope and optimism of the fans here in cardiff didn't wane one bit. we'll take a draw against england and go through the group, and then that's it. and then win the world cup! couldn't get any worse i than what we started off, and a point at the end of the day, if you ask me a point before this game, i would have taken it. - baled out — they'll take it here. tomos morgan, bbc news, cardiff. as you can imagine, i was very calm all evening, of course i was! chris is with me with the weather.

holding it together well, huw! lots of rain around, particularly across england and wales, skies like this quite common, causing problems on a roads in southern regions. the wettest spot was in northern ireland, but quite wet in southern england and across the south of wales as well. this is the area of low pressure that brought the rain, not moving very far very fast, running into this high pressure that is bridging across from greenland to the north of europe. that is really stopping it progressing, so the area of high pressure will sit there overnight, still more rain in the forecast, but the rain turning lighter and more patchy. for most of us, frost free, but already down to minus three in the highlands, so here are some local frost and fog patches. tomorrow morning, a damp note in eastern areas, the rain

easing to showers through the day, western area is not bad with some sunshine around, showers clipping pembrokeshire, running into parts of cornwall and devon, where it will be a windy day. temperatures of 7—11 c, just a degree or two below average for the time of year. more rain in the forecast for wednesday, another area of low pressure on the way, bringing heavy rain, pushing northwards and eastwards, and through the afternoon it brightens up through the afternoon it brightens up in the west, a mixture of sunshine and showers, but showers widespread, some quite heavy and thundery as well. temperatures not changing much, 7—12 degrees celsius, but over the next few days, although the weather stays unsettled, expect more rain, the wind is switching to a south—westerly direction, so highs of 13-14 a south—westerly direction, so highs of 13—14 into the weekend, with more rain on the way. chris with the latest on the weather. that is the bbc news at ten

tomorrow's front pages starting with... no surprise, england's victory over iran. the metro goes with bravery of lions. the headline also a nod to the courageous protest against human rights violations by iran. and also the i speaking about a potential backtrack of brexit. the daily mail speaking about mps being able to claim expenses for christmas parties. the daily telegraph phrasing a speech by keir starmer who is expected to tell business leaders the days of low pay and dependence on foreign workers are over. the guardian reports on fresh allegations about the behaviour of the justice secretary allegations about the behaviour of thejustice secretary dominic rab.

in the hall that day when qatar was chosen as the hosts and really you had 12 years of controversy building up had 12 years of controversy building up to this tournament. no surprise we should have so much political conversation, political issue to talk about on the second day of the tournament. just to that point there, the bravery of the iranian team, they will almost certainly face repercussions at home. to take the stand they did was really quite something and as alfie says, the juxtaposition of what happened in the end of the english, welsh team and netherlands when fifa said players will be booked if they were armbands and the fa saying it is a sporting sanction and it risk we are not prepared to take and it really

shines a light on just how deep some of the commitments to some of these wider political issues are. you totally understand, you don't want totally understand, you don't want to see players deprived of success on the pitch, it is wrong and i understand why fifa want to try and keep politics out of it but at the same time, it is feel quite unsatisfactory that, in the end, the teams did sort of cave, the fa did cave. ~ ., , ., ., ., cave. we will go inside now and have a look at the — cave. we will go inside now and have a look at the inside _ cave. we will go inside now and have a look at the inside of _ cave. we will go inside now and have a look at the inside of the _ cave. we will go inside now and have a look at the inside of the metro - a look at the inside of the metro and one of their headlines as love it. but before we get onto the sport properly, what do you make ofwe have so many games of football coming up, so many games of football coming up, so much coverage and these awfully fuelled issues willjust continue to dominate, won't they?— fuelled issues willjust continue to dominate, won't they? yes, they will and for a large _ dominate, won't they? yes, they will and for a large part, _ dominate, won't they? yes, they will and for a large part, that _ dominate, won't they? yes, they will and for a large part, that is _ dominate, won't they? yes, they will and for a large part, that is a - and for a large part, that is a healthy thing and a good thing that sport provokes debate and you do not

ignore the politics but the will be discussing that as a positive thing but having said that, the things around the play can be questionable and there will be particular scrutiny of the qatar regime and lack of liberal freedoms but in the end, it is through all that should have the spotlight shone on it and it is notjust the qatari government benefiting from this tournament but all the westerns post the sponsorship of the tournament as well and the industry of football should be under the spotlight for the fact that it does support what, in the end, seemed like a morally corrupt decisions in terms of where the questionable flows of money both from sponsorship but also clubs etc

so it is the politics that you're talking around this, it is good that it spotlight on football but it should be careful not to slip into easy or lazy country critiquing —— critiquing of one single country. we have to mention wales as well, 1—1 draw against the usa, good or bad result? ,., ., draw against the usa, good or bad result? , result? good result. there might have been _ result? good result. there might have been stage _ result? good result. there might have been stage fright _ result? good result. there might have been stage fright at - result? good result. there might have been stage fright at the - result? good result. there might. have been stage fright at the start, first world cup since 1958 for wales but they hung on in there and gareth bale popped up with that penalty so they've given themselves a real fighting chance of going on in the tournament and it's great, and all british clash next week to look forward to. british clash next week to look forward to-_ british clash next week to look forward to. , ., forward to. indies, we will leave the sort forward to. indies, we will leave the sport and — forward to. indies, we will leave the sport and world _ forward to. indies, we will leave the sport and world cup - forward to. indies, we will leave the sport and world cup but - forward to. indies, we will leave | the sport and world cup but let's get onto the politics, front page of the financial times, alfie, your take on this, story at the bottom there, rishi sunak ruling out swiss style eu deal as tories fear hunt

relaxing of rules around migration and the signalling that the government wants to allow that when we have labour shortages. he is caught between a rock and a hard place. the needs and realities of the economy and struggles of the coming recession. i the economy and struggles of the coming recession.— the economy and struggles of the coming recession. i will ask you to reflect on that _ coming recession. i will ask you to reflect on that story _ coming recession. i will ask you to reflect on that story but _ coming recession. i will ask you to reflect on that story but we - coming recession. i will ask you to reflect on that story but we can i coming recession. i will ask you to reflect on that story but we can do they combined story on the front of they combined story on the front of the telegraph because the immigration as alfie was talking about and then sir keir starmer saying the uk must wean itself off migrant labour.— saying the uk must wean itself off migrant labour. really interesting. we had rishi _ migrant labour. really interesting. we had rishi sunak— migrant labour. really interesting. we had rishi sunak at _ migrant labour. really interesting. we had rishi sunak at the - migrant labour. really interesting. i we had rishi sunak at the conference and starmer is going there tomorrow and starmer is going there tomorrow and he will save you days of cheap labour and low pay are over and that

very thing that british business leaders are arguing for is that you can't have people coming in plug these vacancies and that keir starmer will go to them and say, no, we need to find other ways of developing economic growth and we will not uphold the —— pool the migration lever. he is saying that they will not fall the conservative policy on reducing migration which of course is a problem for the conservatives because they are looking at the dilemma of how you keep to the commitment and try to keep to the commitment and try to keep something helping the economy but he said he will not set those limits and we already know that it is expected to be the obr making that clear last week. and it is all

part of this government in waiting that keir starmer wants to deal, is building a closer relationship with business, trying to convince them that the shift to the centre ground is for real and the days ofjeremy corbyn are long gone. is for real and the days of jeremy corbyn are long gone.— is for real and the days of jeremy corbyn are long gone. what do you make of the _ corbyn are long gone. what do you make of the politics _ corbyn are long gone. what do you make of the politics and _ corbyn are long gone. what do you j make of the politics and economics of this move? the make of the politics and economics of this move?— of this move? the politics of it, are represented _ of this move? the politics of it, are represented almost - of this move? the politics of it, are represented almost within i of this move? the politics of it, - are represented almost within papers where _ are represented almost within papers where the _ are represented almost within papers where the same speech tomorrow has the opposite headline in the independent in terms of being able to relax _ independent in terms of being able to relax migration in which could allow— to relax migration in which could allow it— to relax migration in which could allow it where it is needed but the headline _ allow it where it is needed but the headline in — allow it where it is needed but the headline in telegraph comes from the
