It was one ofa number of in honour of the victims. It was one of a number of vigils which took place across the city. I went to one where i met a nurse named john. He was off duty on sunday night. When he got the call, he went straight to the hospital where he treated dozens of victims. They are prepared for these kind of traumas but said the sort of injuries he saw came nothing close to anything hed ever witnessed. Ive covered a number of mass tooings here in the united states. What im always struck by is the resilience communities have in the resilience communities have in the face of these tragedies. Ill give you an example of that resilience. John, the nurse i mentioned, worked through the night treating people despite the fact he lost his own friends in the attack here at mandalay bay. Thank you. Not surprisingly the massacre in las vegas has reignited the gun control debate in america. The killer, Stephen Paddock had an arsenal of 47 guns and thousands of rounds of ammunition. The white house has said its too early to look at gun policy. But, for many in the us it is the moment to revisit one of the nations most contentious debates. Sophie long reports. Terror as innocent lives are again brutally cut short by a man with a gun. America, again, must come to terms with what happened here. Las vegas willjoin terms with what happened here. Las vegas will join the terms with what happened here. Las vegas willjoin the growing list of places forever etched in peoples minds. Already on it, orlando, where 49 people were killed in a nightclub. Virgina tech university, where 32 people died. No one will ever forget Sandy Hook Elementary School in connecticut where 20 children and five of their teachers we re children and five of their teachers were shot dead. Now, again, people ask, should there be an increase in controls . What is increasing, is the number of People Killed by guns. Its up from 12,500 in 2014 to more than 15,000 last year. Is the its estimated there are around 300 million private guns in circulation and nevada has some of the most relaxed gun laws in the country. You dont need a permit to buy a gun or license to own one. Things are unlikely to change under president trump. As your president , i will never, ever infringe on the right of the people to keep and bear arms. Never, ever. But that wont stop the calls for change. The husband of former Congress Woman gabrielle geoff orders who survived a shooting six years ago says action is needed to stop the next shooting. Despite senseless gun related violence, despite an epidemic of preventible suicides, despite the problem of toddlers shooting toddlers and their pa rents, toddlers shooting toddlers and their parents, the response from congress has been to do nothing. Parents, the response from congress has been to do nothinglj roanically, has been to do nothing. roanically, after mass shootings, gun sales go up rather than down.

Thats the title of the speech that the foreign secretary borisjohnson will be making this afternoon at the conservative Party Conference amid more speculation about his leadership ambitions. Mrjohnson has been accused of again weakening the prime Ministers Authority by setting out his own red lines on brexit. But theresa may has been defending her style of leadership insisting that she doesnt want to be surrounded by yes men. From manchester, our political correspondent, chris mason reports. His report contains flash photography. Have you retired, boris . Here we go. Go on, run through them, boris what is borisjohnson up to . A question you hear rather a lot in conservative circles, and recently with deafening regularity. While the foreign secretary has his hands on his head, others here have their head in their hands, exasperated at his repeated willingness to set out his own manifesto and brexit. The Prime Minister did her best to give the situation the best possible gloss. Actually i think leadership is about ensuring that you have a team of people who arent yes men, but a team of people with different voices around the table, so that we can discuss matters, come to an agreement, and then put that government view forward, and thats exactly what weve done. For theresa may this morning, a banquet of broadcasting before breakfast, and for her cabinet, questions and answers, that went a little like this. Is the cabinet feeling united this morning . Very united. As i said yesterday, we are in manchester city, but were all united. I thought that was quite funny. Why didnt anyone laugh . This conference is very much a reflective affair, even downbeat, a little flat, because this is a party asking itself a very big question. How did it manage to go backwards at the general election in which it anticipated leaping forwards . This afternoon, borisjohnson will try and appear upbeat, tickle the tummy of party activists, and hell say, let the lion roar. I am very much looking forward to it. Its going to be absolutely, as always, explosive stuff. Is he unsackable, do you think . Who knows why anybody should conceivably want to sack, as it were, the father of brexit at this crucial moment. What a crazy thing that would be. Meanwhile in the shadows, protestations of loyalty and an insistence there is no beauty parade going on. The conservatives might have won the general election, just about, but the whiff of emotional defeat hangs in the mancunian air. Chris mason, bbc news, at the conservative Party Conference. Our assistant political editor, norman smith, is in manchester. Borisjohnson has stolen the headlines over the last few days. How much more is he expected to rock the boat this afternoon . Well, lets be honest, Boris Johnson the boat this afternoon . Well, lets be honest, borisjohnson does not do dull. He doesnt do staid, soled, serious minded speeches. Let the lion roar is his speech. Kapow. Zing, high energy and high excitement, oodles of optimism about brexit. Hell beat about the head the doom amongers and all those who believe it will end in tears. In a way, that is a rock the boat moment. It isa way, that is a rock the boat moment. It is a compare and contrast moment. People will read a cross to theresa may and the sort of response she gets. She has a much more serious and caution approach. She doesnt excite the conference in the way borisjohnson almost certainly excite the conference in the way Boris Johnson almost certainly will. They like his flamboyant style. There will be people who think i wonder who life would be like if he we re wonder who life would be like if he were leader. In terms of the content of his speech, i dont expect Boris Johnson to get out his red felt tip pen and scribble in a load of red lines where he disagrees with mrs may. The reason for that is this much as this conference loves Boris Johnsons flamboyance, the one thing they hate above everything is disloyalty and those who are seen to be disloyal. So, the lion may roar, but im thinking, its not going to bite. At least not this afternoon. Norman smith, thank you. The eus chief brexit negotiator has told the European Parliament that not enough progress has been made in talks with the uk. Michel barnier said more needed to be done on the issues of Citizens Rights and the border with ireland as well as a financial settlement, before they could move on talks about a trade deal. Our europe correspondent adam fleming is in strasbourg. Jean Claude Juncker and Michel Barnier were the w5r78 up to the main event today, a vote by meps on a meigs critical of the governments sta nce a meigs critical of the governments stance on brexit from the rights of eu citizens living in the uk after the uk leaves, the uks attitude to its financial obligations. To the eu after it leaves. Even what to do about avoiding a so called hard border on the island of ireland. This vote was largely symbolic. Meps dont have a final say until theres a final brexit deal on the table right at the end of the process. This was all about sending a very clear message to eu leaders who are going to meet in a summit in brussels in about two ekes time where theyll do their own stocktaking exercise of where the Brexit Process has got to. What really struck me today is mep after mep could not help themselves talking about the tory Party Conference at the gossip going on at the top of the government. Just have a listen to this. This is gifer hoff stat, the Europe Parliament brexit co ordinator. If you are at the other side of the negotiation table, there is a lack of clarity. There is even disunity there are oppositions between hammond and fox, there is opposition and divisions, i should say, between johnson and may. It is difficult to make sufficient progress and it is difficult to make the steps towards the second phase of the negotiations. Now, unsurprisingly, that is rejected by the Brexit Department in london, a spokesman issued a statement saying the uk government does not agree with the analysis of the European Parliament, they think substantial progress has been made on the talks so far and the uk governments focus is on the next round of brexit talks which will happen in brussels next week. Adam, thank you. The boss of monarch says he is absolutely devastated after the airline collapsed yesterday. Andrew swaffield said the decision to cease trading meant the company had to stop flying immediately. Thousands more passengers are being flown home today on planes specially chartered by the Civil Aviation authority. Its thought around 100,000 remain abroad. Theo leggett reports. After half a century of flying, monarch was grounded for good on monday. The company was simply losing too much money. Now the Civil Aviation authority is carrying out a major operation to bring home passengers. Day one has gone really well. We brought back 12,000 passengers yesterday. Day two, we are planning to bring back the same number, and the first flights have already landed. That leaves us the rest of the 15 Day Programme with 86,000 passengers to bring back. But for some passengers, like these people in turkey, the experience has been a stressful one. No one rang me from monarch. No one rang me from any other company to tell me, no e mails, nothing. In hindsight, we should have expected it, because i had to borrow a lot of money last year. Although the caas been able to help people who had already travelled abroad to get back home again, some 800,000 people who bought Package Holidays or Airline Tickets will have had their plans disrupted. And for some of them, getting their money back may prove difficult. This is going to be people who cant get to their destination and have a non refundable hotel or car hire. Its worth checking the travel insurance, if you have it, but be prepared only about half of travel insurance policies will cover what is called scheduled airline failure. Monarch collapsed due to competition. Its former chief executive told the bbc it was put in an impossible situation. Last year has really seem a massive oversupply of flights into our network, really the root cause of which is terrorism closing markets like turkey, tunisia and egypt, and then flights being squeezed into a smaller number of destinations. Monarch isnt alone. Rivals air berlin and alitalia have themselves bankruptcy proceedings, victims of intense competition in europes crowded skies. Theo leggett, bbc news. Our top story this lunchtime. Police in las vegas say they still dont know what drove a retired accountant to carry out the worst mass shooting in modern american history. And still to come. Dig out your old pound coins because in less than two weeks theyll no longer be legal tender. And in the sport in the next 15 minutes on bbc news avon and Somerset Police say they are not expecting any Significant Developments in the ben stokes case for two to three weeks. He was arrested following a brawl outside of a bristol nightclub. Huge crowds have gathered in barcelona to demonstrate against the government crackdown on sunday, when police tried to stop people voting in a referendum on independence for catalonia. A general strike is being held across the region schools and shops have closed, and only a quarter of buses and trains were running during the rush hour in barcelona, causing gridlock. Our correspondent, gavin lee, is there. This is one of the busiest streets in barcelona. Look around me right 110w. In barcelona. Look around me right now. It has been brought to a com plete now. It has been brought to a complete standstill. Parts of the whole of the catalonia region slowed down with people coming onto the streets with the flag of catalan you can see everywhere. But there are those who say they do not feel co mforta ble. Those who say they do not feel comfortable. They do not want the vote for independence, and it is a day where the rhetoric has been ratcheted up by the government as well. Spanish police have been asked to leave the area. This is what the last few hours have been like here. The streets of barcelona today working life on hold, thousands of catalans united behind the new momentum for independence and against the violence of Spanish Police in sundays banned vote. Shutters down, shops shut. A regionwide strike affecting public transport, the citys museums and monuments. Barcelona Football Club too, all closed. This is the biggest demonstration in many years. In barcelona, we are defending our right, our legal rights and civil rights. Against the attacks of the government. Across the catalonia region, the sounds and signs of separatism on the streets are loud and visible. What you can with thousands of people responding to the call for independence. What you can barely hear are the politicians right now. Separatist parties and the Spanish Government are watching each other and waiting, and working out their next moves. Outside one of barcelonas polling stations where police were filmed kicking voters and pulling women by the hair, flowers had been laid and there are signs of peaceful protest. Last night, in madrid, this was one of spains star players, the catalonian born gerard pique, being booed as he trained with the spanish team. Signs of a wider public divide across the country. And this town is ten miles from barcelona, where Police Officers involved in seizing sundays ballot boxes were expelled from their hotels. Told to leave by catalan management. The Catalan Government is now calling for all Spanish Police to leave the region. The first thing we demand is the withdrawal of police forces, hostile Spanish Police and military police. This is the shame of europe. Mariano rajoy is an embarrassment to the world. The Spanish Government is accusing separatist parties of fooling the public into an illegal vote, and are failing to hear the views of millions of catalans against independence. Both sides are talking of the need for political dialogue but since sunday, there has been little sign of that. Gavin lee, bbc news, barcelona. We know from the Catalan Government that 2 Million People voted, they say that 90 said yes. That 2 Million People voted, they say that 9096 said yes. But right now, in terms of the official vote, it has not been published. We know a source in the Catalan Government said that when it is published there will be a 48 hour period in terms of Parliament Voting on whether to go down the path of independence. I think it is quite hush hush at the moment, we may be talking into next week, not by tonight, as originally thought. Little word from the Spanish Government while this business of the police are being asked to leave. This rhetoric only builds up here. Gavin lee, in barcelona, thank you. Rodney bickerstaffe, the former general secretary of britains largest trade union, unison, has died at the age of 72. Unison called mr bickerstaffe a true giant of our movement, with a deep rooted sense of social justice. The home secretary amber rudd has announced plans to tighten the law to try to stop terrorist material being viewed online. She also announced a ban on the sale of acids to under 18 year olds. Acid attacks are absolutely revolting. You have all seen the pictures of victims that never fully recover. Endless surgeries, lives ruined. So today, i am also announcing a new offence to prevent the sale of acids to under 18s. Applause our home affairs correspondent, daniel sandford, is with me now. Acid attacks are on the rise which is why the home secretary is stepping in . There has been ten there has been a terrible scourge in recent yea rs, there has been a terrible scourge in recent years, young people worried about carrying a knife and being caught instead carry acid as a way of threatening one another. It has resulted in some horrific attacks in recent yea rs. Resulted in some horrific attacks in recent years. Of course, it isnt likely to kill but it leaves people with life changing injuries and often on the face. She has proposed three things for dealing with acid. These will go out for consultation. These will go out for consultation. The first is that it is illegal to sell acid to someone under the age of 18, like how it is illegal to sell a knife to an under 18 year old. That it will be illegal to carry an acid unless you have good reason. The same rules apply to nights at the moment, if you can explain that you just been to the shop to get summing to clear your drains, thats ok but if you are around it without good reason row with it for no good reason. There will be a rule that you need a license in order to buy sulphuric acid, which is one of the most nasty of acid is used. It covers more than just acid but corrosive substances. It also covers very strong bleach and things like that. There was one other thing announced today, that is that the sale of knives online would also become against the law. It would have to be delivered somewhere where you can show your age. A lot of people get around knife laws by buying them online. Daniel, thank you. Six months after the new pound coin was introduced, the old one is about to go out of circulation. In fact, you have less than a fortnight to get rid of your old pound coins before they stop being legal tender. And there are plenty out there still half a billion in fact. Tim muffett reports. All change again. When the new pound coin was introduced in march, this company had to adapt 4000 vending machines. For seven months, both coins have been accepted, but not for much longer. Weve got to programme them so that they will just take the new coins and reject the old ones. After it 11 59pm on sunday, october 15, businesses will no longer be obliged to accept the old £1 coin. It will cease being legal tender. The round pound in our economy, that will be over. The royal mint and the treasury said the introduction of the new pound coin has generally gone well. They say the short term costs will be outweighed by long term benefits. The new coin is much harder to forge. The value of the coin is directly proportionate to the scarcity. You will still be able to change old pound that the bank, but some might be worth keeping. In 2011, there was a series of round coins released. They represented Capital Cities of the united kingdom. The edinburgh city pound coin is the most scarce. Only around 900,000 of these were minted. Often hundreds of millions of coins are created when a new design is launched. Cardiff and the london coin, they all have low mint figures. Antiques road show moment. What might this be worth . Presently, on auction sites, they are selling for between £12 and £16, but once the pound coin is demonetised, we expect it to hit about £30 or £40. Before you spend your last round pounds, they might be worth a second glance. Tim muffett, bbc news. One of the best selling musicians of all time, tom petty, has died in los angeles, at the age of 66. Hed suffered a cardiac arrest. The guitarist found fame with his band, the heartbreakers, selling 80 million records. Paul mccartney and bob dylan are among the stars whove been paying tribute to him, as David Sillito reports. Well, i wont back down no, i wont back down. I wont back down was just one of a string of hits in the late 80s for tom petty, but this was far from the beginning. Hed been performing, at this point, for 20 years. You want me to think that im being used you want her to think its over. It was in britain that hed had his first real taste of success. The songs were straightforward rock and roll, rooted in real life. His band the heartbreakers, old friends from his home state of florida, that hed just bumped into one night. I came down to the studio and this band was in the room, and they were all people ive known, so we played that night, and it was so good. I really enjoyed it, so im going to get this one together. We formed the band within hours, really. We were on the album the next day. You can sit around and wait for the phone to ring the end of the line. It was another encounter that led to him joining bob dylan, george harrison, roy orbison and jeff lynne in the travelling wilburys. And bob dylan today led the tributes to his old friend. Paul mccartney, mick jagger, brian wilson, all expressed their sadness. He was kind and gentle and sincere. I think thats one of the things that people most admired about him, that he wanted to rock and roll, he was in a rock and roll band. He loved what he did. He didnt want people telling him what to do, and he kept true to his music all the way through. Well, i started out down a dirty road. His final tour ended only a month or two ago, and he said it would probably be his last. He wanted to make the most of the time he had left. From the moment hed first seen the beatles as a teenager, rock and roll had been his life. The musician tom petty, who has died at the age of 66. Time for a look at the weather. Heres alina jenkins.
