ruled his policy is unlawful. rishi sunak says he is determined to stop people crossing the channel in small boats, and will bring in what he describes as emergency legislation to save his rwanda plan. when i said i would stop the boats, i meant it. today's judgment has not weakened my resolve — it has only hardened it. the other main story tonight — the biggest rebellion of sir keir starmer�*s leadership as dozens of his mps defy him and call for a ceasefire in gaza. as hundreds protest outside parliament, calling for the fighting to stop, inside more than 50 labour mps rebel against sir keir, including eight shadow ministers who'll now lose theirjobs. israel says its soldiers have found military equipment during a raid on gaza's biggest hospital. hamas denies the hospital is a miltary command centre.

and india have reached the final of the men's cricket world cup after beating new zealand in a thrilling semi—final. and on newsnight at 10.30 — we'll go deeper behind the headlines and speak live to key players on today's big stories. plus, a first look at tomorrow's front pages. good evening. it has been a dramatic day in westminister. the prime minister, rishi sunak, has said he will press ahead with plans to send asylum seekers to rwanda, despite the policy being ruled unlawful by the supreme court. the prime minister said emergency legislation would be brought in to "confirm rwanda is safe", and aim to stop a stream of legal challenges blocking the policy. he said he remained committed to his pledge to stop the small

boats which have brought thousands of migrants across the channel. labour called the proposals a ridiculous and pathetic spectacle. our political editor, chris mason, has more. the geography of power — parliament in the background this morning, the supreme court in focus. refugees cannot be returned to their countries of origin if their life and freedom would be threatened. it's known as the principal of non—refoulement, and at precisely ten o'clock this morning, it proved crucial. the legal test which has to be applied in this case is whether there are substantial grounds for believing that asylum seekers sent to rwanda would be at real risk of refoulement. in the light of the evidence which i have summarised, the court of appeal concluded that there were such grounds. we are unanimously of the view that they were entitled to reach that conclusion. the home secretary's appeal

is therefore dismissed. the language of the courtroom can occasionally be barely decipherable mumbo jumbo. not today. we have seen and heard the words in court, and here they are written down. and they are plain and they are simple. the government has lost. its rwanda plan is in tatters. the prime minister's legal defeat prompted a news conference, and what he hoped was a plan b seeing the light of day. we have prepared for all outcomes of this case. and so we have been working on a new international treaty with rwanda. this will provide a guarantee in law that those who are relocated from the uk to rwanda will be protected against removal from rwanda. and it will make clear that we will bring back anyone if ordered to do so by a court. we will finalise the treaty in light of today's judgment and ratify it without delay.

i am also announcing today that we will take the extraordinary step of introducing emergency legislation. this will enable parliament to confirm that with our new treaty, rwanda is safe. he added he was willing to confront the european court of human rights. i will not allow a foreign court to block these flights. if the strasbourg court chooses to intervene against the express wishes of parliament, i am prepared to do what is necessary to get flights off. labour are scathing, but face tough questions themselves. he was warned many times about the problems and yet he still pushed ahead, still made it the central part of his plan. clearly dealing with this is difficult and would be difficult for you if you were in government. what in precise terms would you do? we need a major plan to go after the criminal gangs who have been allowed to take hold along the channel. they are undermining

our border security. clear skies at westminster today, but there was a sulphurous mood among some conservative mps while they waited to hear from rishi sunak. when people around here say something is a "confidence issue", what they really mean is they're losing confidence in the prime minister. delivering the policy of stopping the boats is a confidence issue of the british people in this government. it is certainly a confidence issue for my voters in me. by extension, therefore, it is a confidence issue for me in the prime minister. ultimately, the government has to now, in my opinion, go into a deep, full review of all our obligations under international treaties and convention, because the sovereignty of our country should not be in question, we should be able to control our own borders. and so plenty of questions for the prime minister. you gave your home secretary the heave—ho on monday. the court has shredded your rwanda plan today. it's a total shambles, isn't it? we have returned 20,000 people. we have made thousands of arrests.

all while the numbers in europe are getting worse. that actually shows that when i said we would stop the boats, when i made that speech injanuary, we are delivering, we are making strong progress. but in order to finish the job, in order to get the job done, we need the rwanda deterrent to work. refugee rights are human rights! rishi sunak is still hoping to get migrants on planes to rwanda by the spring. that looks like a big ask tonight. chris mason, bbc news, at westminster. the prime minister said the emergency legislation would be brought in to "confirm rwanda is safe", so how might this work? our home editor, mark easton, has been looking at the detail. does the government really have a credible plan b to stop the boats now that the highest court in the land has ruled plan a is unlawful? the home office was said to be in the collective state of shock after the judgment. if they can't send asylum seekers

to rwanda, their entire plan on illegal migration falls apart. the courts agree the principle of sending asylum seekers to a safe third country, well, that is lawful. but there will be no flights of migrants to rwanda any time soon. nor anywhere else. the prime minister's promised new legislation, wants a new, improved treaty with rwanda. but the supreme courtjudgment warns that whatever intentions and aspirations rwanda makes, the question is whether they are achievable in practice. the changes needed may be delivered in the future, but they have not been shown to be in place now. the legal team who defeated the government were all smiles outside the supreme court but now the prime minister is talking about a new treaty to address the judge's concerns and emergency legislation to rule that rwanda is safe, whatever the supreme court thinks. former supreme courtjustice jonathan sumption is scathing.

it's not unusual for governments to promote legislation to change the law after an unfavourable judgment in the courts. but i have never heard of them trying to change the facts by law. for as long as black isn't white, the business of passing acts of parliament to say that it is is profoundly discreditable. the prime minister is taking huge gambles to try and force his flagship policy through. can he convince the house of commons to vote rwanda is safe when the supreme court says it's not? can he get it through the house of lords? and how long will the whole process take? 0ne home office source asked today answered, "how long is a piece of string?" mark easton, bbc news. the other main story tonight. sir keir starmer has suffered a major rebellion over his stance on the israel—gaza war this evening, with 56 of his mps voting for an immediate ceasefire. ten mps, including eight shadow minsters, either resigned or were sacked from the shadow front bench after they backed an snp

motion calling for a ceasefire. 0ur political correspondent hannah miller is in westminster. how damaging is this for sir keir? this looks to be the worst rebellion that keir starmer has faced since becoming labour leader. these are not all people from the left wing of the labour party, some of them certainly would not have been fans ofjeremy corbyn. de have been a talks to try to bring some of these mps on side but ultimately, many of them are responding to pressure from their constituents on what is proving to be a very divisive issue among potential labour voters. ceasefire now! the calls are getting louder. both outside parliament, and in. every minute, every hour, every day we wait is another orphan, another grieving mother and another family wiped out. we need a full and immediate ceasefire now.

my constituents have demanded this and i will not refuse them. there is nothing humanitarian. about letting children eat a little today only to bomb them tomorrow. the only humanitarian way forward is an immediate ceasefire. - keir starmer lost ten of his front bench team and saw 56 of his mps rebel, all voting in favour of the snp�*s amendment for a ceasefire. the scale perhaps explained by pressure from their constituents. i think disappointed is probably an understatement. waheed has previously been a labour voter but now says he would seek out an independent candidate instead. we are not actually seeing anything in terms of our voice being heard. and there's no real recognition of the fact that, actually, this is a lot of people talking and who are taking this position that they want a ceasefire. but in the constituency of hendon, which has a significantjewish population, daniel says the party's stance is a welcome change from the past. keir starmer has shown some good

solidarity with the jewish people, some good solidarity with israel, and i hope, i hope he can maintain that and i am sure he will. keir starmer had hoped that his motion — calling for a longer humanitarian pause — could keep mps on side. in a letter tonight, he said he regrets that some colleagues felt unable to support his position but wrote that leadership is about doing the right thing. we care deeply about - the humanitarian problems, the issues, the loss of life, the civilian loss of life. - it is heartbreaking. we want to work towards - a permanent end to this war, to the circumstances _ where the cessation of violence can happen so that we can move to a political circumstance. i keir starmer will hope that tonight is the last of the challenges he faces on this issue, but as long as mps are hearing voices like this, the division in labour will remain. hannah miller, bbc news. and chris is here.

let's talk about the scale of this rebellion firstly, biggerthan rebellion firstly, bigger than expected? rebellion firstly, bigger than “netted?— rebellion firstly, bigger than exected? ,, ., ., , ., expected? keir starmer argues that it was actually _ expected? keir starmer argues that it was actually a _ expected? keir starmer argues that it was actually a little _ expected? keir starmer argues that it was actually a little smaller, - it was actually a little smaller, certainly amongst his frontbenchers thanit certainly amongst his frontbenchers than it might have been but what is the evidence? he says there were more than those who ended up resigning who had expressed sympathy with the idea of a ceasefire and he has spent the last couple of days meeting people one—on—one or in pairs to try and persuade people round. de curiosity with all of this really is it was not about changing uk government policy or even about changing labour policy in the context of what we're seeing in the east, it was seen trivial, procedural, irrelevant, but it mattered and certainly matters as far as keir starmer sees it because he wants to present himself as a prime minister in waiting and saw this as a dress rehearsal for what he would do when he was in government point the difficulty for him is divisions within parties are never comfortable when you are a party leader because they chip away at your authority. find party leader because they chip away at your authority.— at your authority. and what about

rishi sunak's _ at your authority. and what about rishi sunak's rwanda _ at your authority. and what about rishi sunak's rwanda plan, - at your authority. and what about rishi sunak's rwanda plan, can . at your authority. and what about| rishi sunak's rwanda plan, can he rescue it? , , , rescue it? the big is it is a challenge _ rescue it? the big is it is a challenge to _ rescue it? the big is it is a challenge to a _ rescue it? the big is it is a challenge to a lot - rescue it? the big is it is a challenge to a lot of- rescue it? the big is it is a challenge to a lot of rich i rescue it? the big is it is a - challenge to a lot of rich countries about what they do about illegal migration and it's not easy but this was a long winded way to fail and this second wind that is being presented is perfectly reasonable to be very sceptical about, whether he can make it work. particularly on the timescale he's talking about, by the timescale he's talking about, by the spring. so i think what we have is a prime minister who is desperate to show willing because he knows millions of people want him to do something about small boats, and loads of his mps do, who fear they might otherwise lose their seats but when you look at the thicket of legislation and courts and conventions that they now encounter, yes, you can raise an alp alli eyebrowjustifiably yes, you can raise an alp alli eyebrow justifiably about them sorting this before the election. thank you. israel says its soldiers have found military equipment during a search of gaza's biggest hospital, al—shifa. israel has released a video, which has not been independently verified, showing some weapons

and high tech communications equipment. hamas has again denied israel's claim that al—shifa hospital was being used as a command post. israeli forces stormed the hospital overnight. hamas, which is designated as a terrorist organisation by the uk, has called the raid on the hospital is a war crime. this evening, the un security council has — for the first time — approved a resolution calling for extended humanitarian pauses to get aid into gaza and for all israeli hostages to be released. 0rla guerin has sent this report from jerusalem this armed israeli troops in the grounds of gaza's largest hospital. israel released this footage of its soldiers bringing supplies into al—shifa, an image it wants to show. this hospital is at the heart of a propaganda war. 0ne doctor trapped inside told me rather than bringing help,

israel should stop killing palestinians. they are killing us. the hamas—run health ministry released its own video, showing a very different picture, with choking dust filling the corridors. doctors say this is the aftermath of an israeli strike. we don't know when these pictures were taken. "we are trying to save this girl by giving her oxygen manually," says one doctor, reduced to treating his patients in the corridor. israel says the patients aren't the targets.

its target is hamas. tonight israel released this video, eight troops giving a guided tour of what they say they are uncovered. —— it's say they are uncovered. —— its troops. say they are uncovered. -- it's troo s. . , say they are uncovered. -- it's troos. . , ~ say they are uncovered. -- it's troos. ., , ~ ., ., troops. full military kit for one hamas terrorist. _ troops. full military kit for one hamas terrorist. live - troops. full military kit for one | hamas terrorist. live grenades, ammunition, boots, uniforms and, last but not least, standard ak—47. inside the hospital in a secluded area. ., ., ,., , inside the hospital in a secluded area. ., ., , ., ,, area. here, more weapons on display, not a massive — area. here, more weapons on display, not a massive arsenal _ area. here, more weapons on display, not a massive arsenal for _ area. here, more weapons on display, not a massive arsenal for what - area. here, more weapons on display, not a massive arsenal for what was - not a massive arsenal for what was meant to be a command centre. but if hamas was in al—shifa, which it denies, its fighters have had weeks to make a getaway. we can't confirm what was found in the hospital, only the israeli army was there. inside

al—shifa, the most fragile are at risk. premature babies relying on each other for warmth. doctors tell 06 have already died. in a hospital but has become a battleground, lives are hanging in the balance. 0rla guerin, bbc news, jerusalem. well, al—shifa hospital has been at the centre of fighting over the last few days. caroline hawley has been looking at the claims and counter claims. thank you, sophie. al—shifa is the main hospital in the gaza strip, and it's been inundated with casualties from israeli airstrikes. it's also had displaced families sheltering inside. but israel has always claimed that there's a lot more going on at the hospital complex than doctors treating the injured. last month, it put out this elaborate video, suggesting that a hamas command centre under the hospital would look like this, with tunnels and rooms. the us says it's also got

intelligence of hamas operating beneath the hospital. hamas has denied this. so what you've got is claim and counter—claim. but al—shifa has clearly been in the israeli army's sights since the outset of the conflict. and bbc verify has been looking at satellite images as they've been closing in on it, over the past few days. now, this first one i want to show you is from saturday. israeli troops are down here — if you can make them out — about 600 metres away. and then this image was taken yesterday afternoon. there's the hospital, and israeli troops were only 300 metres away. you can see them on two sides. up here and down here. we've zoomed in so you can just make out the tanks there. the israel army went in last night and released these images earlier today. it says it's providing incubators, food and medical supplies — labelled here clearly in english. and the hospital says it doesn't need incubators — it needs the fuel to run them.

and then this evening we got new images from the idf, which bbc verify are still examining. the army say they found these weapons in the hospital. but they've produced no evidence so far of tunnels. and moving into a hospital is so controversial that the world really is watching what the israeli military does and says next. sophie. caroline, thank you. inflation fell sharply in october to its lowest rate for two years, largely due to lower energy prices. you can see here how the rate of inflation has come down since october last year when it was at its peak of 11.1% — it went right down to 4.6% last month. rishi sunak said he'd delivered on his pledge to halve the rate of inflation. labour said it wasn't the time for the government to be "popping champagne corks." here's our economics editor faisal islam. at high tide, from the high seas, lower inflation.

a tanker full of natural gas frozen and compressed into liquid form travelling 6000 miles from peru. a third of the uk's entire supply comes through the estuary at milford haven in this way. the lower world price of gas delivered here in west wales now filtering across the country. and while the headline inflation numbers are down sharply, at the local foodbank project, they are stocking up for a tough winter. the energy cost has come down but we are not seeing our demand getting any less. i think people may be playing catch—up with the bills that they maybe sort of shelved or paid a bit less off whatever they are paying off. but i think fundamentally i don't think much has changed for people on low incomes, no. over at the hake inn chippy, pricey haddock is off the menu. whilst some food prices and energy prices are down, they are still well above levels two years ago. it's just really hard. we are getting by, to be honest.

good job we use our own potatoes that we grow... that keeps the prices down? yeah, because we can sell them cheaper then that way. at milton haven marina they are yet to feel a substantial change to bills. a lot of things have gone up, got car insurance, council tax. we are going through a lot more gas and electricity even though we are trying to use less. we are reducing the amount of time we might have the heat on, if we put it on at all. a seventh of all of britain's petrol, diesel and airline fuel is also refined here on this coast from imports of crude oil. the massive global energy shock that hit the uk economy over the past couple of years is now on the turn. you can see it here in the giant ships of gas from the americas that fuel people's homes and the power stations up the coast.

in the tankers of crude oil being turned into petrol. inflation is now sharply lower, but it isn't yet low and there are still concerns about the inflationary pressures generated here in the uk, not from around the world. there's lots more work to do, we still have to bring inflation down to its target level of 2%. but now we are beginning to win the battle against inflation. we can move to the next part of our economic plan, which is the long—term growth of the british economy. of course it's welcome that inflation has come down from record highs, but the truth is, during the course of this parliament the cost of living crisis has hit hard for working families. the government says it's delivered on the pm's promised to halve inflation, but actual deliveries of cheaper gas from afar, at places like this, are the biggest reason inflation in general — not defeated yet. faisal islam, bbc news,

in milford haven. two 12—year—old boys have been arrested on suspicion of murder after a 19—year—old was stabbed to death in wolverhampton. shawn seesahai died on monday evening after being attacked in the east park area. police are urging those with information to come forward. president biden is holding rare talks with china's president xi jinping in san francisco. relations deteriorated earlier this year when the us accused china of sending a spy balloon across its airspace. the two leaders are meeting at an asia—pacific summit in san francisco. 0ur north america editor sarah smith is there. sarah? the us and china have already aareed sarah? the us and china have already a . reed to sarah? the us and china have already agreed to work— sarah? the us and china have already agreed to work together _ sarah? the us and china have already agreed to work together more - agreed to work together more closely to tackle climate change, but don't expect any other major announcements or dramatic breakthroughs. it is not that kind of meeting. it is the fact

these two leaders are sitting and talking to each other at all that is really significant, communicating as a way to try and avoid conflict. with a warm, personal greeting, the leaders of the world's two most powerful countries look like they want to improve their relationship. simply getting together in the same room is a diplomatic statement when tensions between their nations are very high. i value our conversation because, i think it's paramount that you and i understand each other clearly, leader to leader, with no misconceptions or miscommunication. translation: for two large countries like china and the united states, - turning their back on each other is not an option. it is unrealistic for one side to remodel the other, and conflicts and confrontation has unbearable consequences for both sides. they are discussing the wars in gaza and ukraine. the us wants china to stay out of both. there are plenty of disagreements over trade, and top of the agenda, as ever, is taiwan. when nancy pelosi, the senior

democratic politician, visited the self—governing island last year, the chinese government were so enraged they cut off contact with the us military. so when america shot down a chinese spy balloon over the sea back in february, they couldn't get anyone in beijing to answer the phone. china gets frustrated by us military manoeuvres near its waters while conducting its own exercises around taiwan. america wants open lines of military dialogue to stop any incident accidentally escalating into conflict. the two leaders faced each other in bali one year and one day ago and haven't spoken since. so agreement on anything today, even just to keep in touch, could be considered a success. these cuddly diplomats have lived in washington zoo for decades, but have been recalled to china. beijing leases pandas to allies. this symbol of friendship has been packed up and sent home.

they may not be enemies, but china and america are not currently friends. sarah smith, bbc news, san francisco. a large fin whale has been found dead on a beach in cornwall. fin whales are the world's second largest animals after the blue whale. this one was discovered by surfers at dawn this morning on fistral beach in newquay after earlier being seen swimming in an "uncomfortable state". marine experts are working to identify the cause of death and people have been asked to avoid the area. it's been dubbed the miracle weight loss drug. ozempic was developed to treat diabetes. one of its side effects is to cut your appetite, which is why it started to be used as a weight loss drug under the name wegovy. the drugs are only available on prescription in the uk and is only supposed to be taken under expert medical guidance, but secret filming by bbc three has uncovered a black market selling knock—off versions of the so—called skinnyjab in beauty salons.

pria rai reports. hiya. i'm just here to pick up some semaglutide that i ordered this week. an undercover bbc investigation has revealed a black market selling knock—off skinny jabs on the british high street. i visited four beauty salons in liverpool and manchester. so you'rejust, like, listening to your body almost? yes, yes. is it possible to have, like, too much or...? this advice i received is incorrect. the nhs has very limited supplies of the real drug, ozempic and wegovy, and will only prescribe it to people who have a bmi of over 30 and a weight—related health condition. people using the official version get expert guidance from medical professionals.

but that is not what we saw at the beauty salons. although some of the salons asked about health conditions, all were happy to sell me semaglutide despite me being a healthy weight. whilst we could only visit a small number, we found other examples of salons across the uk advertising knock—off versions of the drug. novo nordisk, the company who make the real drug, says there is no approved generic version. even if a knock—off did contain semaglutide, injecting drugs from an unregulated supply chain and without medical oversight is very risky. if you're relying on the individual to make and mix your own medication,

that can go wrong in so many different ways. dr idrees mughal runs a popular tiktok account combating medical misinformation. and if it's not done in a properly sterile environment, it can potentially be life—threatening. so have any of these sellers broken the law? well, it's such a new area that the group which regulates medicines in the uk, the mhra, have said they decide on a case—by—case basis based on how it is being sold and the claims they make about the products. they told us that they are actively investigating this and they told me that anyone found selling it illegally could be prosecuted. pria rai, bbc news. you can watch the full documentary, the skinny jab uncovered, on the bbc iplayer. cricket, and india have reached the final of the men's world cup. the hosts beat new zealand in mumbai in a thrilling semifinal. joe wilson was watching.

there may be a billion people behind team india — there's just one captain. rohit sharma's deep responsibility, brushed off, like that. wow! his sixes propelled india's occasion. yeah, home conditions included a pitch in mumbai that suited them. all the batters excelled. they are not all virat kohli. everyone knew something special was coming, including a unicef ambassador. yeah, david beckham. just another shot towards the boundary, just two more scampered runs, but they meant that kohli reached 100, again, his 50th century in this format, breaking the record of the revered sachin tendulkar, watching. all sport recognises adoration. this, in india, is what drives modern cricket and inspires the likes of shreyas iyer. he hit eight sixes in his hundred. india's batting could not be contained.

new zealand, to win, needed 398.
