this is bbc news with the latest headlines. england are through to the quarterfinals of the world cup after a convicing 3—0 victory over senegal. good morning from doha where i will be reflecting on that victory from england last night. they will go on to face france on saturday and we will also be looking ahead to what is coming up to date at the world cup. raheem sterling is returning to the uk from the world cup after an armed break—in at his home in surrey. no end in sight to the disruption on the railways as the rmt union rejects the latest offer

from the train companies. labour leader sir keir starmer will launch a report that will recommend scrapping the house of lords and furthering devolution. we want to abolish the house of lords and replace it with an elected chamber. england are celebrating an emphatic 3—0 victory over senegal in the football world cup to put them through to the quarterfinals. the captain, harry kane, scored for the first time this tournament leaving him just one behind wayne rooney's all—time england record of 53 goals. manager gareth southgate said they would now face the acid test of france, the reigning champions whose star striker kylian mbappe scored twice against poland yesterday. let's cross to my colleague

john watson in doha. john, an emphatic victory last night but the big test is yet to come? yes, a very good morning from doha, it will be indeed, they do not come much bigger than france, the holders of the world cup, and going up against their star man kylian mbappe. it was not completely straightforward for england last night against senegal, who arguably had the better of it in the first half, but there were some really impressive performances once again from the likes of england captain harry kane and ju bellingham, who is emerging as one of the major stars of this tournament for england. that 3-0 of this tournament for england. that 3—0 win sees them through to the quarterfinals and has some of those england fans who were there last night and the many millions watching back home in england believing that potentially they could go all the way, as joe potentially they could go all the way, asjoe lynskey reports. in knockout football

it's meant to be tense. on some nights like these england have toiled. now, they�* re emphatic. hammered home! and for the ninth time, england will play in the quarterfinals of the world cup. senegal were here as african champions. at this world cup they're the team with tempo. and for 35 minutes they stopped england's rhythm. but for a miss, and a save, this game could have changed. but in one first half flash, england settled. bellingham gets it across. and henderson puts it in! a goalfinished in sunderland and set up in stourbridge. the hold and pass from 19—year—old jude bellingham got jordan henderson in. bellingham's the kind of player this team's rarely had, who gets it deep and drives. this time harry kane was away, and in three games here

he'd not yet scored. harry kane will score goals at this world cup. in one ruthless shot at goal, kane shut out the noise. 2—0 — england had found the sweet spot. their one change for this game was to bring back bukayo saka. a wonderful third england goal. who stayed onside and stayed composed. saka was here in place of three—goal marcus rashford and raheem sterling, who's now flown back from qatar. armed intruders had broken into his home. he'll now spend time with his family. senegal had brought joy to this world cup. now they'd been swept away. and england go on from the champions of africa, to the champions of the world. mbappe... inevitable. their quarterfinal is against france, and a man whose joy flows through his football. kylian mbappe may be the best player in the world. now england have to try and stop him.

if they beat france, they could win it. but i think that's the big hurdle they've got. yeah, i think france are the biggest danger team in the tournament. i think they could do it. i this might be their year. |the chips are falling into place| and we'll have to wait and see. it was absolutely exhilarating. it was amazing, i loved it. look, it's a brilliant game, isn't it? the two quarterfinals that are already decided, fantastic football nations. we've got a few days to recover, and we'll look forward to what's going to be a brilliant test. they're now two games from the final, but it's no easy route from here. england against france in the world cup last eight, the date set for saturday. joe lynskey, bbc news. well, there was a very noisy support for senegal last night, the senegalese fans singing along and loudly inside the stadium but england fans as well, the supporters here in doha who were in the stadium last night also making their voices heard, many of them singing jingle

bells at one point, some of them wearing christmas hats, and in this, the first world cup to be staged in the first world cup to be staged in the winter, many back home will be thinking just perhaps this england side could deliver an early christmas present, as tim muffett reports. prayers and pints on the sabbath. and a feeling at the camden beer hall in north london that this could be a super sunday. i think we'll win 2—0. i think it's going to be 2—1 to england. i think 4—0 england. i'm hoping it's a big win from england today. penistone church football club in barnsley was packed. local lad john stones played here as a schoolboy. tom knew him, and is now a coach. i'm nervous, i'm excited, but i think we'll do all right. for the first half hour, talk of an easy england win seemed a little misplaced. senegal having several chances. but, after 38 minutes,

jordan henderson struck and england erupted. cheering. this was the halo nightclub in bournemouth... cheering. the boxpark in wembley... cheering. the stack in seaburn in sunderland. cheering. i didn't see that coming. i thinkjordan henderson is the best player on the planet. ilove him. you can see the clue on the back of your shirt. proof's in the pudding. and just before half time, harry kane made it two. cheering.

i'm an arsenalfan, but i think that's the first time i don't mind harry kane scoring a goal. well done jude bellingham, that goal. all about jude bellingham. when bukayo saka scored the third in the second half, fans really could relax. unbelievable goal. i love saka. so pleased for him to score. buzzing, absolutely buzzing. so, a world cup quarterfinal against france awaits. now tonight's been a big night for the england team, forfans, and for bars and pubs showing the match. saturday looks set to be huge. we played well. excitement�*s already building in bournemouth. it's coming home at the end of the day. it's coming home. the whole nation knows it. we're going to win it. mate, honestly, semifinal, final winners. it's how it should be. is it coming home? it's coming home.

# football's coming home.# in sunderland and across england, many agree. tim muffett, bbc news. well, that belief is growing amongst the england supporters. let's take a look at how the tournament is shaping up, and the potential route england could face to reach the final. first of all they'll have to face current champions france this saturday with the winner going through to the semis to play one of fourteams, morocco, spain, portugal or switzerland. they all play tomorrow to decide their quarterfinal line—up, with that match taking place this coming saturday. the semifinal will be played the following wednesday. the winner of that game will then progress to the final to face one of the teams from the other half

of the draw with pre—tournament favourites brazil and argentina being tipped for that match which will take place on sunday 18th december. let's get some thoughts from some england fans. we have heard from the england fans who are here, many of whom will believe that perhaps england can at long last deliver a world cup win, their first since long last deliver a world cup win, theirfirst since 1966. so many england fans have watched this team perform in the past in knockout matches at major tournaments, perhaps arriving with more hope than expectation, but now there is that belief, expectation growing that perhaps england can at long last deliver on the biggest stage of all. it hasn't surprised me, how calm the england fans appear here, perhaps a feeling that england really could go all the way at this world cup. joining me now from qatar is miguel delaney, chief football writer at the independent.

thank you so much forjoining us, miguel, how do you see england's chances, based on their performance? a very strong, to be honest since the opening round of games i have had them among the top four teams. i think they have put in the higher number of the better performances, but i suppose as people expected before it began, even if the anticipation for england was not quite so high, so much of it was about this potential quarterfinal against france, that has now been confirmed, and england are probably playing one of maybe only two teams in the tournament who could be considered better than right now, it is france and brazil, really. and one of the consistent criticisms of souths time has been that england have lost the first really exacting game that they have come up against, which maybe has given who they beat during euro 2020, although that was at wembley, but this will be the

acid test, if england can do this then i would say a lot of the excitement is 100% justified, because if they win this game, they will become favourites, i would say. so what is it going to take to win this game, what does gareth southgate have to do? i this game, what does gareth southgate have to do? i think the most immediate _ southgate have to do? i think the most immediate problem - southgate have to do? i think the most immediate problem is - southgate have to do? i think the i most immediate problem is figuring out how to stop kylian mbappe, it has become something like how to stop lionel messi. he is that good, definitely the best player in the tournament so far, probably the best player in the world right now. the win over senegal was superb, it ended up being commanding, england took complete control. the one concern would be the first half an hour, in that period when senegal were on top, and their left—winger, ismaila sarr, kept getting down that side. that is where mbappe would be, and that would be the one note of caution. but talking to some of the players in the mixed zone after the game, declan rice made the point of

saying, we have spotted weaknesses in france too i would say the main issue will be mbappe, but england can cause problems for france as well. on the evidence of last night, given france have lost paul pogba and n'golo kante, i would say england for once going into a massive game like this actually have the better midfield. let’s massive game like this actually have the better midfield.— the better midfield. let's talk about jude — the better midfield. let's talk about jude bellingham, - the better midfield. let's talk i about jude bellingham, amazing performances aboutjude bellingham, amazing performances so far, how important will he be? ~ ., will he be? well, he did not actually get _ will he be? well, he did not actually get man _ will he be? well, he did not actually get man of - will he be? well, he did not actually get man of the - will he be? well, he did not. actually get man of the match, will he be? well, he did not- actually get man of the match, the official man of the match was harry kane, but we think that is... well. kane, but we think that is... well, m man kane, but we think that is... well, my man of— kane, but we think that is... well, my man of the _ kane, but we think that is... well, my man of the match, _ kane, but we think that is... well, my man of the match, let's - kane, but we think that is... well, my man of the match, let's put - kane, but we think that is... well, my man of the match, let's put it i my man of the match, let's put it that way. my man of the match, let's put it that wa . .. , my man of the match, let's put it thatwa . , my man of the match, let's put it thatwa. , , that way. exactly, there has been auestions that way. exactly, there has been questions about _ that way. exactly, there has been questions about that _ that way. exactly, there has been questions about that process - that way. exactly, there has been questions about that process but| that way. exactly, there has been| questions about that process but i don't think anyone would dispute that the best player on the pitch was due bellingham. he was superb and it is remarkable to think that he is a teenager, notjust for the way he plays, in a world cup, but most of all for the way he has been taking command, his maturity. —— jude bellingham. essentially he has been exactly the type of midfield player that england have been missing, which makes an immense

difference. the expectation on saturday will really be, especially without n'golo kante and paul pogba, and didier deschamps having to reconfigure his midfield, thatjude bellingham could well dominate that area. . , . ., area. harry kane was man of the match, area. harry kane was man of the match. an _ area. harry kane was man of the match, an important _ area. harry kane was man of the match, an important goal- area. harry kane was man of the match, an important goal for- area. harry kane was man of the l match, an important goal for him? match, an important goalfor him? yeah. and maybe not a coincidence, either. that he did not score in the group stage, perhaps not a concern because this is now the second tournament in a row where he has saved his scoring for when it gets serious. just like southgate's england, he has made a virtue of navigating the knockout rounds. and it is interesting because southgate has now been responsible for 40% of all of england's knockout wins, of course that is boosted by the quality of players, this is a true golden generation, particularly in attack, with harry kane's goals leading that. attack, with harry kane's goals leading that-— attack, with harry kane's goals leadin: that. �* �*, ., ~ ., leading that. and let's talk about jordan henderson _ leading that. and let's talk about jordan henderson briefly, - leading that. and let's talk about | jordan henderson briefly, because leading that. and let's talk about - jordan henderson briefly, because he did score a goal and he has been

3—0 in their last 16 game. raheem sterling is leaving qatar after armed intruders broke into his surrey home while his family were inside. talks aimed at avoiding rail strikes before christmas are expected to take place today. the rmt union rejected the latest offer from the train companies. the rmt union is due to hold further talks with rail industry leaders today after rejecting a pay offer to prevent strikes in the run—up to christmas. the rail delivery group said staff would get an 8% wage rise over two years if they accepted changes to working practices but the rmt warned that would lead to hugejob losses. i'm joined by our news correspondent frances reid. first of all, frances, what is the latest? �* , first of all, frances, what is the latest? ~ , , ., latest? as you said, it is the rail delivery group — latest? as you said, it is the rail delivery group that _ latest? as you said, it is the rail delivery group that made - latest? as you said, it is the rail delivery group that made that i latest? as you said, it is the rail delivery group that made that a | latest? as you said, it is the rail. delivery group that made that a set offer, it was split into two, it was supposed to be 4% increase over the

last year, backdated to the start of the financial year, then another 4% in the following year, and it was also going to offer a guarantee of no compulsory redundancies until april 2024 as well. in return, of course, there would have to be changes to working practices. the rmt have said absolutely not, the deal would still lead to huge job losses over the long—term and they have called for another urgent meeting today. it said if it had accepted that deal then of course lots of ticket offices would close and loads of workers who work on the railways who didn't previously work on sundays would now be expected to work on sundays so they have basically said, that is not acceptable. the transport secretary, mark harper, described the rejection is incredibly disappointing, he said passengers should also receive the service they have paid for. and passengers should also receive the service they have paid for. and how will this affect — service they have paid for. and how will this affect passengers? - service they have paid for. and how will this affect passengers? that. service they have paid for. and how will this affect passengers? that is| will this affect passengers? that is the big question, _ will this affect passengers? that is the big question, a _ will this affect passengers? that is the big question, a latest - will this affect passengers? that is the big question, a latest round i will this affect passengers? that is the big question, a latest round of| the big question, a latest round of strikes by rmt members outwit network rail and these 14 other

of public health and director of public health in sheffield. thanks so much forjoining us. first of all let me ask you, what is happening here, why is it that we are seeing an increase in numbers this year compared to last? 50. this year compared to last? so, stre a this year compared to last? so, strep a is _ this year compared to last? so, strep a is a _ this year compared to last? srr, strep a is a common this year compared to last? sp, strep a is a common bacteria found in the throat and skin of many, many people, and sometimes, actually very rarely, that develops into very serious illness, and my heart and thoughts go out to hanna's parents at this very traumatic time. the honest answer is we don't yet know why cases of strep a are high, it is a seasonal illness and it is not quite back into its seasonal pattern after the pandemic, but there are more cases now than there had been, say, this time last year. in short, there are a lot of cases, and cases lead to more cases, it is very, very

infectious, but we don't know why the pattern is as it is at this time of the year. is the pattern is as it is at this time of the year-— of the year. is it a case perhaps that the fact — of the year. is it a case perhaps that the fact that _ of the year. is it a case perhaps that the fact that we _ of the year. is it a case perhaps that the fact that we saw - of the year. is it a case perhaps that the fact that we saw last i that the fact that we saw last year's numbers reported being still far below average, this year's have then apparently become higher? there could be a bit— then apparently become higher? there could be a bit of— then apparently become higher? there could be a bit of that _ then apparently become higher? there could be a bit of that and _ then apparently become higher? there could be a bit of that and i _ then apparently become higher? ii—iiff could be a bit of that and i guess ultimately that might depend on a very detailed clinical and epidemiological analysis down the line. ,, ., epidemiological analysis down the line, ,, ., ., epidemiological analysis down the line, ., ., epidemiological analysis down the line. . ., _ , epidemiological analysis down the line. . . ,, , ., line. so, what are the symptoms of this? there — line. so, what are the symptoms of this? there will _ line. so, what are the symptoms of this? there will be _ line. so, what are the symptoms of this? there will be lots _ line. so, what are the symptoms of this? there will be lots of - line. so, what are the symptoms of this? there will be lots of parents l this? there will be lots of parents watching who will be very worried. yes, so, i am a watching who will be very worried. yes, so, iam a parent, when i watching who will be very worried. yes, so, i am a parent, when i would call for help would be among the following, and this is all on the nhs uk website. if my child is getting worse, if my child is feeding or eating less than normal, if they are a young child and they had had a dry nappy for 12 hours or more, and if they had a fever, that would be when i would call for help. i would call immediately for help, 909 or a&e if my child was having

be released at ten o'clock but we got our hands on a draft over the weekend so we think we know the vast majority of what is in it. and although, yes, this is about stopping the house of lords, yes, this is about devolution to scotland, wales and northern ireland, it is also about more power across england as well. so, some of the things gordon brown is talking about include 50,000 jobs in the civil service moving from london to other parts of the uk, he talks about giving more powers to local government in england, including revenue raising powers, the ability to raise some money and to spend it on the priorities that local leaders have. the house of lords abolition is an important pledge that the labour party has made for quite some time now, and there is that question i think about whether they will actually see it through, whatever the promises are. sir keir starmer was on bbc breakfast this morning and he was asked about this.

the house of lords is indefensible. anybody who looks at the house of lords would struggle to say that it should be kept. so, we want to abolish the house of lords and replace it with an elected chamber that has a really strong mission. so, for example, looks after devolution, actually makes sure that our politics works. so, yes, we do need to abolish the house of lords. the reason we are having the consultation now, before the election, is because i am absolutely determined that an incoming labour government will be a government of delivery. therefore, i want the consultation out of the way before the election and then i want to get on with delivering. and all of the recommendations in the report, including the recommendation in relation to the house of lords, are deliberately written in a way that means they can be implemented within the first five years of a labour government. you will notice that keir starmer said a few times, consultation, because what he is not doing today is taking this chunky, 160 page report from gordon brown and saying,

thatis report from gordon brown and saying, that is labour policy. he is saying, we are going to have a look at it and we are going to speak to various people in the labour party and to local leaders and to figure out which of it we want to implement and i suppose that raises an interesting question today because keir starmer is making some big claims about this massive transfer of power, but he's not telling us the specifics of what he is going to do, and when. and i think that has become a bit of a thing with the labour leader over the last few weeks, he is talking a lot more about his ideological stances, we had it with immigration as well, he doesn't think that immigration is the answer to the uk's labour problems, but he didn't tell us whether immigration should go down on the whole or where he would like to see levels of immigration. today, he's saying he wants more devolution but he is not telling us exactly what and when and how. so, ithink telling us exactly what and when and how. so, i think there will be some more questions about that when the report launches at 10am. the

government, a source in the government, a source in the government, has said that they think this is all basically navelgazing that it this is all basically navelgazing thatitis this is all basically navelgazing that it is labour talking about what people in westminster care about rather than the big issues facing the country like strikes and some of the country like strikes and some of the economic challenges we have been discussing a lot. but labour are hoping that this starts a big conversation about transferring power away from london towards other parts of the uk, and that they think that politically it is a good idea because it answers their hope, they hope, some of the questions people have about control, particularly after the brexit referendum, and the debate over scottish independence. more than 600 workers at the housing and homeless charity shelter are beginning a fortnight of strike action in england and scotland in a row over pay. the unite union said the 3% increase workers received had left many of them unable to pay their rent and facing the prospect of being made homeless. shelter said it wanted to support its staff while still being able to deliver frontline services.

it's ironic that housing workers who choose to work in a sector where they are working for love and goodwill, that then that goodwill is being taken advantage of by their employer when they are having to face the very same issues that their clients are facing — of housing insecurity, anxiety, paying the bills, paying the rent in particular, and very powerful landlords that can exploit people and push them out of their housing. so, what we're doing here is asking shelter to come to negotiations. now it's time for a look at the weather. how is it looking, carol, a bit colder, ifeel? absolutely, it is going to get colder as we go through this week with some of us but not all of us seeing some snow. we have all of us seeing some snow. we have a lot of cloud which has been producing showers this morning. in eastern scotland the showers will be

fading during the day and the best of the sunshine will be in western scotland. later in northern ireland and also across parts of western england and wales. but in the winter temperatures fall to about 7—8, feeling chilly. tonight the cloud will tend to break up, still a brisk wind but fewer showers inland. there was around the coast could be wintry on higher ground and we are looking at some frost. tomorrow, we start off with more sunshine than we did today, still some showers, could be wintry across northern scotland and the southern uplands and north—east england. again, not all adverse see these showers. in the brisk winds, once again it is to feel cold.

are reigning champions. they had a great tournament themselves so far. we'll be ready for it. we'll enjoy this win, will recover for a couple of days and then really prepare well for what's going to be another tough one. a good night's work for england — here are some great pictures of the players arriving back at their hotel, and they got some reception and a few of them couldn't help butjoin in with the celebrations and out in the streets after the match there were some pretty pleased england fans, all looking forward to the france quarter—final. they've got some great players but we've got some great players as well. we still got a chance, definitely. well. we still got a chance, definitely-— well. we still got a chance, definitel . , . . , ., ., , definitely. glad harry kane got his coal that definitely. glad harry kane got his goal that henderson _ definitely. glad harry kane got his goal that henderson was - definitely. glad harry kane got his goal that henderson was a - definitely. glad harry kane got his goal that henderson was a man i definitely. glad harry kane got his goal that henderson was a man ofj definitely. glad harry kane got his i goal that henderson was a man of the match_ goal that henderson was a man of the match for— goal that henderson was a man of the match for us. i�*m goal that henderson was a man of the match for us— match for us. i'm so glad we're auoin to match for us. i'm so glad we're going to the — match for us. i'm so glad we're going to the quarterfinals. i match for us. i'm so glad we're. going to the quarterfinals. great result, going to the quarterfinals. great result. great _ going to the quarterfinals. great result, great performance, i going to the quarterfinals.- result, great performance, clean sheet, can't go wrong. unbelievable. well done, southgate, _ sheet, can't go wrong. unbelievable. well done, southgate, you _ sheet, can't go wrong. unbelievable. well done, southgate, you picked i sheet, can't go wrong. unbelievable. well done, southgate, you picked anj well done, southgate, you picked an absolute _ well done, southgate, you picked an absolute team and a half today. jude

allowed space and privacy respected, so we don't want to talk into much detail. away from the world cup... england are running out of time if they are to force a victory on the final day against pakistan in their test. they have been brilliant from the start, england, after such a huge score they posted. ben stokes' side starting the day needing to take eight more wickets with the hosts needing 263 more runs to win. one wicket in the first session with anderson removing imam—ul—haq. anderson removing imam—ul—haq. anderson striking again after lunch. since then pakistan have held firm and a few moments ago they were 242-5. meanwhile allrounder liam livingstone has been ruled out of the series with pakistan after hurting his right knee

during the match. livingstone — who was making his test debut — sustained the injury while fielding on the second day. over in the caribbean england's women had a comfortable 142 run win over the west indies in the first of three one day internationals. natalie sciver starred with the bat making 90 off just 96 balls and danni wyatt hit three sixes in a brisk 68 as england posted 307—7. west indies were never in the hunt and collapsed to 165 all out. charlie dean took four wickets. heather knight's side will also play five t20 matches on this tour. all eyes inevitably will turn to the saturday quarterfinal against france. we know so often that with england supporters and fans when it comes to watching them in knockout matches at world cups, they arrived with more hope, i guess, than expectation, but there is a calmness among those england fans that

perhaps this could well be their year. but it is a big if when i have to go up against france, the world champions, and kylian mbappe in that big match to come on saturday. we know the calibre they have. you feel that match really will be arguably the defining one of this world cup for england. from here in doha, that's all. back to you. a report out today from a former downing street adviser is putting forward new proposals to control migration numbers. nick timothy, who used to advise theresa may, advocates barring people who arrive in small boats crossing the channel from ever settling in the uk — and no more than 20,000 asylum seekers a year arriving through resettlement routes. nick timothyjoins us now. first of all, if you can run through how your proposals differ from what is already happening and what you want to see. is already happening and what you want to see-— want to see. thank you and hello. our

want to see. thank you and hello. 0ur report — want to see. thank you and hello. 0ur report has _ want to see. thank you and hello. our report has 41— want to see. thank you and hello. i our report has 41 recommendations, including some quite significant things like the introduction of id cards and reforms to the modern slavery act. but at its heart what we are proposing is a kind of reversal of the way the asylum system works at the moment. we are proposing the creation of dedicated resettlement routes to bring people over to the country safely and legally. we think there should be a cap on those numbers. in a normal year that should probably be 20,000 but parliament would be free to change it if there was a particular crisis we were responding to. and for people who arrive in the country illegally we should change the law so they are not allowed to settle here and they are detained and then very quickly they are given no choice but to return to their home country if it is safe to do so, or to go to rwanda or another country where we might have a rwanda style treaty for their asylum claim to be processed there but we think if we do this that would destroy the

incentive travel, destroy the business model of the people smugglers, but it would require us to change human rights laws and potentially even leave the european convention on human rights. imilieu potentially even leave the european convention on human rights. when you are talkin: convention on human rights. when you are talking about _ convention on human rights. when you are talking about 20,000 _ convention on human rights. when you are talking about 20,000 a _ convention on human rights. when you are talking about 20,000 a year- are talking about 20,000 a year coming through resettlement routes, are you talking about mainly ukraine, afghanistan and hong kong, or if i were someone in a central african country who wanted to come here, would i have access to these resettlement routes as well? we haven't resettlement routes as well? - haven't been prescriptive about how the resettlement routes should work. at the moment we have resettlement routes for ukrainians, those from hong kong and afghanistan. would it not count if you _ hong kong and afghanistan. would it not count if you were _ hong kong and afghanistan. would it not count if you were living _ hong kong and afghanistan. would it not count if you were living in - hong kong and afghanistan. would it not count if you were living in an i not count if you were living in an african country? i not count if you were living in an african country?— not count if you were living in an african country? i 'ust said we are not bein: african country? ijust said we are not being prescriptive _ african country? ijust said we are not being prescriptive about i african country? ijust said we are not being prescriptive about how. african country? ijust said we are l not being prescriptive about how we would design the resettlement routes. it could be done in a variety of ways and could be done in response to specific crises as the government has done with syria in the past and ukraine today. or it could be done through a variety of criteria perhaps connected to people

who might have family living in the uk for example. so no, we haven't got specific proposals for individuals in particular countries. a cap of 20,000 a year on numbers coming through resettlement routes. how would that go down with conservative voters in red wall seats who want a more hardline approach to migration than that? the 0 - inion approach to migration than that? tue: opinion research approach to migration than that? tte: opinion research we approach to migration than that? the opinion research we have published in the report today shows that people are highly concerned about the failure to stop the channel crossings at the moment and for the absence of order in the immigration system as a result of that. and it is cited as one of the main reasons for people who have left the conservative party since the last election and who support the tories need to win back if they are going to win an election again at the next general election. aha, to win an election again at the next general election.— to win an election again at the next general election. a yougov poll from the end of november— general election. a yougov poll from the end of november showed - general election. a yougov poll from the end of november showed that i general election. a yougov poll from | the end of november showed that the economy and health were actually

bigger priorities for all voters. do you think people are actually going to want to look at these proposals and think, ok, we will spend this kind of money on changing an immigration system when actually the economy and had the health system in this country are absolutely needing investment right now?— this country are absolutely needing investment right now? yeah, i don't think that investment right now? yeah, i don't thinkthat poll— investment right now? yeah, i don't think that poll contradicts _ investment right now? yeah, i don't think that poll contradicts what i i think that poll contradicts what i just said, it measures a slightly different things. but it's perfectly possible to think that the economy needs growth and the nhs needs investment but also that the immigration system needs control. and when an immigration system doesn't have control it can cause pressures on public services like the nhs. it also, if the numbers are very high, disincentivises employers from making investment decisions on things like technology and skills training for people who already live in the country legally. let’s training for people who already live in the country legally.— in the country legally. let's talk about the european _ in the country legally. let's talk about the european convention| in the country legally. let's talk i about the european convention on human rights because in this report you suggest we could potentially leave the echr but if we do that

would put us in a unique group within europe consisting of russia and belarus, of countries who are not in the echr. if you look at the echr itself, is it not going to have a knock—on effect on international agreements, including the good friday agreement if we do end up leaving it? the legal ramifications run very deep so how can you even suggest it?— run very deep so how can you even su~estit?~ . ., , , suggest it? what we have proposed is that if we do — suggest it? what we have proposed is that if we do leave _ suggest it? what we have proposed is that if we do leave the _ suggest it? what we have proposed is that if we do leave the echr, - suggest it? what we have proposed is that if we do leave the echr, what i that if we do leave the echr, what we should do is take the articles of the echr and incorporate them into british legislation so we are still committed to those rights but it would be up to parliament to decide where the balance between those rights lies and notjudges in a strasbourg court. that would give democratic control over some of these decisions. as it relates to things like northern ireland we also suggest it is possible to have some kind of carve out where it says for the purposes of the good friday

agreement, the echr will still apply in northern ireland, so we think there are ways around that. but the question is, if we are so dogmatic that we think we are not prepared to question our status as a signatory to the echr, that is actually building a kind of ideological position ahead of the practical consideration of what do we do to restore control and stop these crossings, which everyone agrees is a big problem. the crossings, which everyone agrees is a big problem-— a big problem. the home secretary has written — a big problem. the home secretary has written a _ a big problem. the home secretary has written a foreword _ a big problem. the home secretary has written a foreword to _ a big problem. the home secretary has written a foreword to your i has written a foreword to your report. she says she doesn't agree with everything in it. do you have any idea what she doesn't agree with? i any idea what she doesn't agree with? ., �* ~ ., . any idea what she doesn't agree with? ~ ., . , with? i don't know which policies in articular with? i don't know which policies in particular she _ with? i don't know which policies in particular she disagrees _ with? i don't know which policies in particular she disagrees with - with? i don't know which policies in particular she disagrees with or i particular she disagrees with or agrees with. if i had to hazard a guess i would say we are not likely to see the government introduce id cards anytime soon. i suppose the point is in writing the foreword to the report, she is sympathetic to the report, she is sympathetic to the direction of travel we are submitting. the direction of travel we are submitting-— the direction of travel we are submittinu. . ., , submitting. sympathetic enough put it into policy? _ submitting. sympathetic enough put it into policy? i _ submitting. sympathetic enough put it into policy? i can't _ submitting. sympathetic enough put it into policy? i can't speak- submitting. sympathetic enough put it into policy? i can't speak for- it into policy? i can't speak for the home _ it into policy? i can't speak for the home secretary. - it into policy? i can't speak for the home secretary. before i it into policy? i can't speak for. the home secretary. before you it into policy? i can't speak for- the home secretary. before you go, i want to ask —

their manager, gareth southgate, said they would now face the "acid test" of france — the reigning champions whose star striker, kylian mbappe, scored twice against poland yesterday. joining me now kiro evans — sports journalist for the sun. always good to talk to you. if we move on to talk about the world cup in general and how it is going for all the teams, let's talk about england, so what do you make of their performance and chances for their performance and chances for the weekend? t their performance and chances for the weekend?— their performance and chances for the weekend? ~ . , ., the weekend? i think largely england have been pretty _ the weekend? i think largely england have been pretty fantastic _ the weekend? i think largely england have been pretty fantastic this - have been pretty fantastic this world cup. there was that goalless draw with the usa which was a bit awkward but that was the outlier. generally inks have been explosive in attack, fairly solid defensively and have looked really attractive on the ball and there is a cohesiveness that other major nations haven't quite grasped yet. for england it is looking really good but for france, is the acid test, as gareth said, so that'll be a major problem for england because france are world champions and probably still the

best team in the world. thea;r champions and probably still the best team in the world. they are world champions _ best team in the world. they are world champions and _ best team in the world. they are world champions and have i best team in the world. they are world champions and have star. world champions and have star striker kylian mbappe. how will we be to rein him in question yeah i think that's mostly up to mbappe, to be fair. tt think that's mostly up to mbappe, to be fair. ., , ., .,' be fair. if he has an off night then ma be, be fair. if he has an off night then maybe. but _ be fair. if he has an off night then maybe. but if— be fair. if he has an off night then maybe, but if he's _ be fair. if he has an off night then maybe, but if he's on _ be fair. if he has an off night then maybe, but if he's on it, - be fair. if he has an off night then maybe, but if he's on it, as i be fair. if he has an off night then maybe, but if he's on it, as we i be fair. if he has an off night then i maybe, but if he's on it, as we have seen against poland and australia, things will be very difficult for england. kyle walker will probably have the task of trying to retain him. defensively it will be difficult because mbappe has some wonderful attributes. england will be praying he has an off night. [30 be praying he has an off night. do ou be praying he has an off night. do you think, and dare i ask the question, if we get through the france game, we have a chance to win the world cup this year?— the world cup this year? absolutely. get ast the world cup this year? absolutely. get past france _ the world cup this year? absolutely. get past france and _ the world cup this year? absolutely. get past france and you _ the world cup this year? absolutely. get past france and you never- the world cup this year? absolutely. get past france and you never know| get past france and you never know what's possible. after that it could be potentially argentina or holland, who both have weaknesses and eventually, hopefully, england will win the world cup again. there is no reason why this current crop of really exciting, brilliant and mostly young players can't do it. raheem sterling has had to return

before christmas are expected to take place today. the rmt union rejected the latest offer from the train companies. schools across the uk are facing difficult decisions as they battle the cost of living crisis, including rising heating bills and staff costs. in addition to this, the head teacher's union has told the bbc that the poorest and most vulnerable families are increasingly turning to schools for support. our education correspondent elaine dunkley has been to a primary school in wigan which is using inventive ways to help families in the run—up to christmas. 0h, holly, tell me about the fabulous work you're doing? as the cost of living crisis deepens, there's increasing pressure on school funds. whichever area we look at, the costs are escalating. this is westleigh methodist

primary school in wigan. since the beginning of the school year, we've followed teachers, parents and pupils... say you have your heating on, you can only have it _ on for like, an hour. ..to see how they're coping with rising costs. for us as a school, we're set to face a deficit this year. we've seen our energy bills at the moment increasing by up to 50%. we've put in the budget for this year about £40,000 to cover the cost of gas and electric. we're heating the schooljust enough to keep us all warm. but then, you know, we've got to be really, really careful. currently, we're seeing an increase to teachers�* pay and support staff salaries. we're looking at spending over £1 million on staffing this year, which is phenomenal. so these two trips are the ones where we need to contribute the most. at least once a day mrs moragrega checks in with the school's finance manager. paper has gone from £1.99 to 3.19 a ream. we do need a magic wand in this place at the moment.

you know what it's like — trying to balance the budget is so difficult. the school does have reserves it could dip into, and has put in successful bids for additional money to fix the roof. but there are more jobs looming. so this is our early years shelter at the moment, which you can see is very, very old. it's been here for a number of years and desperately needs replacing. we're probably looking at about 70, 80,000 for the canopy itself, and then it's the resources that obviously need to go into it. one of the big costs is school trips. and the head is worried that some might not go ahead. for many of our children, life beyond westleigh, they don't really experience that. so for us to be able to take them on a residential, to put them up a climbing wall, give them access to abseiling, canoeing, this is huge for those children. itjust opens their eyes up to a world out there that they wouldn't necessarily see. it's crucial. in the kitchen the cost of putting

school dinners on plates is rising. we try and make the plates as full as we can, so that at least we know that these kids have got one decent meal a day, because when they go home it is a struggle for these families. dinner lady lorna is already thinking about the school christmas lunch. how it is at the minute, you're a little bit, are they going to have a christmas dinner this year? because we don't know what they're facing when they go home. luckily, we can do it here. and we can give them that experience. we've got crackers coming in, we decorate the tables and make it reallyjoyful for them. i don't really want - anything for christmas. i'm just fine with anything i like. for pupils too, the cost of living crisis weighs heavy on their minds. when you're cold, you get like a jumper on or something, instead of turning on the heating, because it's just got too expensive. my mum said, like, this year, father christmas can't get as much things like you did last year, and it might cost more

than it used to did. we see children coming in and they are worried about the cost of living. they are worried about everything going up in price. they see the stress that their parents are under. you see it very much in outbursts of emotion that they just can't put words to. this is a school in the heart of its community. there's summer dresses and skirts, if you want to come round out of the cold. money is tight, but there's no shortage of ideas and resilience. there's now a uniform bank. the headteacher has changed parts of the uniform to one similar to a school in a more affluent area. i mean, thesejohn lewis dresses, i would never even think of going in there. so these would just be a godsend. it means more donations. me and my husband both work full time and we still sometimes get to the end of the month and we're just thinking, well, the kids need a new pair of school shoes, because they've gone through that pair. but we need to buy food.

today, mrs moragrega is out knocking on the doors of local businesses to raise money. you have to think wider and start to really think out of the box. a school trip might be injeopardy if the money can't be raised. the cost of transport has gone up dramatically, because of fuel increases. this company has made a donation of £500. it's a great result. it will go such a long way to supporting our pupils to gain those wider experiences, whilst taking a little bit of pressure off those budgets, and pressure off the families as well. the government says it will invest an additional £2.3 billion per year in schools in england. but many headteachers fear that, with prices continuing to rise, it might not be enough. feels relentless. it seems to be that we're trying to solve one problem after another, after another. there will come a point where we think, actually, there's no

more we can do there until we start to get more support and more funding. there will come a point when our hands will be tied. elaine dunkley, bbc news in wigan. the monarch butterfly, known for its beautiful orange, black and brown wings, was declared endangered lastjuly by the international union for the conservation of nature. but there's hope for them yet, as azadeh moshiri reports. monarchs rarely give up their thrones willingly and these monarch butterflies are no exception. they are currently endangered after a big drop in their migratory population. scientists believe climate change, pesticides and illegal logging are threatening their very existence. but they are making a comeback. translation: now we have more butterflies, more arrived - here because the colony is bigger. and notjust here. there is another place where there are even more butterflies. and further on, there

is even a bigger colony. every year they travel up to 3000 kilometres. they fly all the way from the united states and canada to spend their winters in mexico. it's one of nature's most spectacular mass migrations. but more than that, last year's winter offered a glimmer of hope. their migratory population jumped by almost a third compared to 2020. their migration is so striking that hundreds of people gathered to witness it at this monarch sanctuary near mexico city. and for some, the butterflies' survival takes on spiritual importance. translation: what do i feel? as if the butterflies were falling papers, falling leaves, flying souls, so it's so many feelings woven together. this year's migration is already well under way. the butterflies hibernate, enjoy the warm weather, and by spring they'll be ready

to mate and fly back. hopefully a restorative holiday for many more years to come. azadeh moshiri, bbc news. now it's time for a look at the weather. good morning. this week it's going to turn colder than it has been. also looking at the chance of snow, especially across the northern half of scotland, but not exclusively, and looking up widespread frost as well. looking up the pressure charts for the next few days, watch the isobars veering around to have a more northerly component to them, dragging in cold areas are straight down from the arctic, right the way across the british isles with temperatures falling away below average for this time of year. what we have today is a lot of clout to start the day, producing a fair few showers as we have gone through the course of this morning. some of those have been wintry on higher

ground but most at low levels are falling as rain. a lot of cloud to start with. we'll see breaks across western scotland, some sunshine. through the day, further breaks across northern ireland and western parts of england and wales. the shower is fading across eastern scotland during the course of the afternoon but many will be persisting across parts of england, wales and a few getting into northern ireland. temperatures ranging from five in aberdeen to eight in plymouth but tempered by wind. heading into the evening and overnight, the crowd continuing to break up and we continue with showers, a lot of them inland will fade and some wintry around the coasts and hills. these are the temperatures, looking at frost again tonight. temperatures not breaking freezing around the glasgow area. until tomorrow, starting off with more sunshine than we started with today. also looking at still showers, some wintry across northern scotland, the southern uplands and

north—east england. with the brisk wind it will feel cooler than the temperatures suggest, 4—8. another frosty start on wednesday and then the snow starts to fall across northern scotland, coming in. on the brisk wind we could see wintry showers getting along the east coast of england. the met office has an early weather warning out for this snow. we expect between two and five centimetres at lower levels and 5—10 centimetres at lower levels and 5—10 centimetres above 200 metres. with the strong northerly winds it means there will be some drifting and some blizzards as well. these are the temperatures, to make in lerwick, three in aberdeen and three in newcastle. in a brisk wind, this is what it will feel like against your skin, more like —5 in lerwick and —i in newcastle.
