Welcome to bbc news. Hundreds of thousands of people have been demonstrating in barcelona in support of spanish unity. It follows madrids decision to take direct control of catalonia after regional leaders there voted to declare independence on friday. The sacked catalan separatist leader Carles Puigdemont has called on his supporters to show democratic defiance of direct rule from madrid. But supporters of spanish unity have been calling for mr puigedemont to be jailed. Gavin lee reports from barcelona. The organisers say the silent majority are coming out. The police say there are 300,000 in the crowd, the organisers say more than a billion. This is what has been developing in the last few hours. Claiming back their streets. Thousands of catalan protesters marching through the city of barcelona saying no to an illegal declaration of independence by their now ousted government. This is expected to be the largest demonstration yet in support of unity. Chanting. Well, this is becoming a familiar noise. It is a pro spanish unity demonstration. Over the weekend, we have seen pro separatists. One of the voices here, shouting for spain. If you are to listen to them individually, people want very Different Things. We have never been out like this before, but now we have to, because we cant stand it any more. Were still europeans, spanish and catalan. I cry, i cry. It is not possible. The key moment here will be what happens to this man, Carles Puigdemont, who still calls himself the catalan president. Hes been removed from office by the Spanish Government, along with his cabinet and more than 100 officials. His job in all but title has been transferred to spains deputy Prime Minister, soraya saenz de santamaria, until elections in december. What do you want the Spanish Government to do . Do you want them to take over forcibly . He has to go to the. Prison. The prison. Independence supporters are being urged to democratically resist any attempts from madrid to forcefully remove the separatist leaders. But a flash point could come tomorrow, if Carles Puigdemont tries to return to his old position. There are reports he could face charges linked to sedition and rebellion against the state. As i was walking through the crowd, i met off duty Regional Police but were concerned. They were pro unity and said many colleagues felt the other way and it is causing divisions within the force. This is the wider question. While we have Carles Puigdemont potentially returning to work tomorrow, what about wider civil society, the police, firefighters, who are returning to work, told they are controlled by spain. Josep Maria Terricabras is a spanish mep with the catalonian nationalist republican left party, who is pro independence. Thank you for speaking to us. Can i ask you, what will happen tomorrow when people start theirjobs for ask you, what will happen tomorrow when people start their jobs for the first time after this decision by madrid to take control . The first thing i have to say is it is extraordinary the Prime Minister, without a charge, that he decided to sack the president of catalonia, without a charge, that he decided to sac been resident of catalonia, without a charge, that he decided to sac been democratically alonia, without a charge, that he decided to sac been democratically elected. Has been democratically elected. That is extraordinary. That is a clue. Imagine theresa may sacking Nicola Sturgeon in scotland. It is incredible. That is what happened on friday. I do not think we have to accept things. That is against democracy, so we have to live our normal life. The president of catalonia is mr Carles Puigdemont elected by people. Mr Mariano Rajoys government was elected by people and you say he acted without a judge but thejudges have people and you say he acted without a judge but the judges have said the independence declaration was illegal and any independence was illegal, so he acted with authority from the courts. It can be illegal but nobody said he could sack the officials leading catalonia. You think they should work as normal tomorrow . M course, of course. Naturally. The Prime Minister can do what he likes this will be a democratic in spain. This will be a democratic disaster for all of in spain. This will be a democratic disasterfor all of us. We have in spain. This will be a democratic disaster for all of us. We have to follow. The rules. If we look in the spanish constitution, you will not see a single word on that. The Central Government will tell Regional Government to do this or that. In no case the Central Government canjust that. In no case the Central Government can just sack people in the Regional Government and replace them. Why is not Carles Puigdemont amber ministers taking that case to the Constitutional Court and saying, look the Prime Minister has exceeded the powers given to him under the constitution . I hope that this has been done. I dont know what has been done. I dont know what has been done. I dont know what has been done in the judicial court, been done. I dont know what has been done in thejudicial court, but he has exceeded a lot. The support was done by the senate, where he has an absolute majority. 0k, we had also an absolute majority in the cata la n also an absolute majority in the catalan parliament. I suppose the solution is the elections that will be held for. That he has called, Mariano Rajoy, the regional elections. We are seeing pictures from friday of the declaration of independence and the mps celebrating. Will your Party Contest those elections in december . celebrating. Will your Party Contest those elections in december . I dont know. The first point is the only one according to law who can call for elections is the president of catalonia, not Mariano Rajoy, not madrid, so in that sense i do not think they have the power. You will have seen. You are not in barcelona but you will have seen pictures today of the protests in favour of remaining in part of that reflects spain. That reflects something important, doesnt it, however sincere your desire for independence, there are many of your compatriots who are happy to remain pa rt compatriots who are happy to remain part of spain . Of course, that is democracy. Everybody has to make their point. They did not vote with us their point. They did not vote with us in the referendum of october the ist. That was the moment is a no. And we would say yes and we would know exactly how many are on one side or the other. Why they did not use that opportunity, by the Spanish Police were beating people who wa nted police were beating people who wanted to go, what is that . The last time catalonia tried to demonstrate its desire for a separate course and to ta ke its desire for a separate course and to take its own way in the world, some terrible events unravelled in spain. They were not the fault of catalonia but a combination of Different Things coming together, but it was a brutal civil war, terrible dictatorship, and a long period when spain was from period when spain was isolated from much of europe. Are you worried that events, with the best will in the world, could spiral out of control . I hope you are not comparing Mariano Rajoy with franco. I would never do such a thing. It was franco who initiated the war, not the catalan leaders. In that sense, we are as peaceful as we were at that time, and we hope on the other side we will meet peaceful people. And that we can come to an agreement, but they do not want to come to an agreement. We asked 20 times for that and there was no possibility. Mariano rajoy said no, i cant and i dont want, his words. It is absolutely terrible. Thank you for being with us and heroically wrestling with your computer as it tried to run away and take you out of shot and still be able to talk. Thank you. Thank you. I had difficulties. I appreciate your patience. We appreciate your time. I hope we speak again. Complaints about inappropriate behaviour and sexual harrassment by mps have now led to a government minister being investigated to see if he broke the ministerial code of conduct. International trade minister mark garnier asked his secretary to buy two sex toys in soho, in 2010. It was before he was a minister. Hes described the incident as good humoured high jinks. Meanwhile theresa may has written to the house of Commons Speaker asking him to look at the creation of an independent body to which allegations about mps behaviour can be reported. Heres our Political Correspondent jonathan blake. Mark garnier has been an mp for seven years. Hes currently a minister at the department for International Trade. In the mail on sunday, mr garniers former secretary said in 2010, he asked her to go into a shop to buy sex toys. She also accuses him of using derogatory language. The minister has not denied it, telling the newspaper that he would have to take this on the chin. He described what happened as good humoured high jinks and added that it absolutely does not constitute harassment. But, aware of other recent reports about mps acting inappropriately, the government was quick to respond. These stories, if theyre true, are obviously totally unacceptable and the Cabinet Office will be conducting an investigation as to whether there has been a breach of the ministerial code in this particular case. But, as you know, the facts are disputed. What i would say is there are mums and dads who have daughters who are politics students hoping to get a job in westminster and they must be able to be confident that if they get that job, their daughter will not be subject to some of these behaviours that we have been seeing. Westminster has been braced for accusations of abuse against mps. In the wake of the Harvey Weinstein scandal, those in public life are facing renewed scrutiny. Last week, the labour mp jared 0mara was suspended after apologising for sexist and homophobic comments. Long serving mps said things have changed, but that there is still more to be done. It was partly to do with the fact it was a very male environment. 650 mps when i went there, just 20 odd women. Its partly to do with the idea that all these men are away from home. Its partly to do with the fact there were eight bars and very long hours and the bars are open for as long as were sitting. And partly it was the notion of what happens in westminster stays in westminster. It was worse. Its a little bit better now, but theres a long way to go. With a fresh focus on the issue of Sexual Harassment at westminster, the Prime Minister has written to the speaker of the house of commons asking for a new procedure for mps and staff to report abuse. Theresa may has also asked for advice on how the culture at westminster can be changed. Jonathan blakejoined me earlier and he said the government had been quick to react today to allegations of misconduct. There has been swift reaction from the government. You saneremy hunt saying the minister had been referred to the Cabinet Office and they will look into whether his behaviour, alleged behaviour, has broken the ministerial code of conduct. That is one response. The Prime Minister wrote to the speaker, john bercow, who has a sort of overseeing role in terms of parliamentary discipline, to ask for a new procedure to be set up, contratually binding procedure, she has said, to allow mps and staff to report accusations of Sexual Harassment and inappropriate behaviour and have confidence they will be dealt with. As it stands, anyone can make a complaint against an mp to the parliamentary commissioner for standards, but there is clearly a feeling procedures need to be tightened up and i think we will see more on that in the coming days. Difficult if the mp you are complaining about is your employer . Quite. We have heard of mps talking in the wake of these accusations in the last few days, saying they know of cases where people do have concerns and have been the victim of abuse or inappropriate behaviour on whatever level and have not reported it, either they did not have the confidence it would be taken seriously, or because they had been urged not to. Anna soubry, the conservative mp, is one of those talking about these accusations and suggesting she and others have tried to make progress on this for some time. I had already this morning sent a request to the speaker asking for an urgent statement from the leader of the house as to what could now be done to make sure that any complaint against anyone working in parliament, to extend the protections that workers throughout the rest of businesses and in other workplaces have, they should be extended into parliament, and asking for an urgent statement from the leader. Clearly the pm is well on to this. It strikes me it is a good idea. We have to make sure everybody who works in parliament, whoever they are, enjoys the same protections as other workers. I very much welcome this. Another complication that occurs to me, mark garnier is investigated under the ministerial code, but the accusations relate to a period when he was a backbench mp. How could he be in breach of the code if he was not a minister . It is a tricky question and one the Cabinet Office and those investigating this. They are not trying to pass it into the long grass . I do not think that is the intention. Jeremy hunt spoke this morning, saying if the allegations are true they are not acceptable. There is i think good will on all sides because it appears to be a cross party issue. If you are not a minister, or you were not a minister when you are alleged to have done something, it is difficult to see how you could be in breach of the ministerial code, there is i think good will on all sides because it appears to be a cross party issue. If you are not a minister, or you were not a minister when you are alleged to have done something, it is difficult to see how you could be in breach of the ministerial code, but there are other rules and standards by which mps are held to and we may see those come into play with these accusations and others, which im sure will follow in the days to come. Jonathan blake. The headlines on bbc news hundreds of thousands are marching through barcelona in support of spanish unity and against catalonias unilateral declaration of independence. The International Trade minister, mark garnier, faces an investigation after he admitted asking a former secretary to buy him sex toys. Heathrow airport says it is confident it remains safe after security information was found in the street. Sport now. The big day for Lewis Hamilton. Heres katherine downes. A few hours to wait until we find out if Lewis Hamilton wins the world title and we will bring it to you as 0011 title and we will bring it to you as 50011 as we title and we will bring it to you as soon as we know. Football. Brighton came from behind to draw with their south coast neighbours southampton in the premier league this afternoon. The result leaves both sides comfortably mid table. Adam wild reports brighton in the lunchtime sunshine for the south coast derby. Still not everybody felt the warmth of this neighbourly rival. Looking to stop the brighter southampton the first to turn up the heat and apply pressure. James ward prowses free kick coming back of the post, steven davis the quickest two. In a first half of few clear cut chances, brightons shane duffy wasted the best of them. Manager Chris Hughton where they can ill afford to do that. That was his half time message. His players clearly listening. The first opportunity after the break fell to glenn murray, his third in two games. The visitors had a chance to win. Manolo gabbiadini perhaps unfortunate when this effort deflected over. 1 1 it remained, the points shared in the south coast sunshine. The 4pm kick off is leicester against everton. Both teams under new managers. Leicester have claude puel in charge for the first time. Everton have David Unsworth in the hot seat in a temporary capacity. It is currently 0 0. 17 minutes played. Manchester city women scored two stoppage time goals as they came from a goal down to beat Birmingham City ladies 3 1 and preserve their 100 league record. A penalty from Izzy Christiansen got the champions back level, beforejen beattie scored the vital second in the 91st minute. Second in the 91st minute. Christiansen then got a second penalty to put the gloss on the victory. Chelsea ladies stay top of the table on goal difference though after they beat yeovil 6 0. In the days other game, arsenal beat struggling everton 2 0. Everton have just scored. Everton havejust scored. I am sorry, leicester have scored against everton in the 4pm kick off. You can follow the live scores on the website. Two matches in rugby unions premiership today. Including a local derby between bath and goucester. That kicked off at 3pm. You can see the latest scores. Newcastle and leicester got under way at the same time. In the Rugby League World cup, scotland have lost their opening match against tonga. The scots trailed 38 0 at half time but did manage to at least get on the score board with this try from danny addy. But the match ended 50 4 to tonga at full time. They did what we thought, come straight down the middle and powered through the middle. At first we were wide and made it easy for them to bust through the middle. Second half we tightened up. Conditions played a they played quality. I think part. They played quality. I think we only had two good balls since the first half. Fair play to them. They tackled better and got the result. Englands women are right back in the ashes series after claiming an important victory in the Third One Day International against australia in a match they couldnt afford to lose. Englands 284 8 was their highest ever 0di total against australia, and although the hosts started their reply well, they lost crucial wickets late on. Despite hitting a boundary to finish, australia fell 20 runs short of their target. This win keeps englands hopes alive heading into the test match, and t20 matches to come. Caroline wozniacki has won the end of season world tour finals in singapore after a straight sets win over Venus Williams this afternoon. After the dane took the first set, she stepped on the gas, breaking in the opening game and cruising into a 5 love lead, but after williams came back to win four games on the bounce, wozniacki finally got over the line in the next game, breaking williams to lift the title. Thats all the sport for now. But dont forget Lewis Hamilton could clinch the f1 titles this evening at the mexican grand prix. Theres coverage on radio 5 live from 6 30.

Its been reported that the bbc has suspended radio 5 live presenter george riley following claims that a number of women have complained about his behaviour.

Nicola sturgeon is to apologise on behalf of the Scottish Government to gay men convicted of now abolished sexual offences. The first minister will make her statement next week to coincide with new legislation to grant automatic pardons to those affected. The law will also allow the removal of such crimes from criminal records. Catriona renton reports. Until 1981, all Sexual Activity between men was a criminal offence in scotland. The law was then changed to decriminalise sex between men over the age of 21. In england, that law was changed in 1967. L last month, the first minister, Nicola Sturgeon, announced a new bill that would automatically pardon all men, alive and dead, convicted of these crimes. She will publish this and make an apology at holyrood on the 7th of november on behalf of the Scottish Government for the treatment of homosexual men under previous governments. By offering you this ring. Gay marriage became legal in scotland in 2014. But looking to the past, the Scottish Government said the new bill will give justice to those criminalised simply because of who they loved. Those who have convictions will also be able to apply to have them removed from central records. In england and wales, there is no automatic pardon, except for those who died before february this year. Those who are living will receive a pardon after their convictions have been deleted because the secretary of state is satisfied that the conduct is no longer criminal. Catriona renton, bbc news.

The winner of the Royal Institute of british architects most prestigious award the stirling prize will be announced on tuesday. The nominations to become britains best new building 2017 include a rejuvenated seaside pier on the south coast of england, a London Housing development and an extension to the british museum. Today, we look at the studio of the fashion photographer jurgen teller by 6a architects. Essentially, jurgen wanted a studio, a place to work. But in his world that is quite a few Different Things. It means shooting photographs of course and also making books, making exhibitions, as well as receive lots of people. So that is where the idea of several buildings and several gardens, so somewhere where lots of different types of shoots can happen in a very natural setting. Jurgen used to share his home with a studio. Of moments of intimacy. So he still has the kitchen table, which is where he meets clients and where he works. There is a library, there is a sauna and a gym. There is a kind of private inner world to the studio and then there is the big studio in the middle where he lays out and does shoots and things. And then there is the public building at the front, which has different collaborators and staff and an archive. There is equality between garden and internal space all the way through the building. There is a quality between garden and internal space all the way through the building. It is a really beautiful part of it. That really reduced material palette that has texture but allows it to be background, and jurgens work and photography to be the foreground always in this space. There is a quality of light, both within and in the gardens, which is almost archaic. And i think that makes an amazing setting for the work thatjurgen does. I am using every single centimetre of the space. And i have photographed every bit of it and it is tremendous fun, it is like a haven of quietness and freedom and madness. It is just brilliant. For me, its excellent. And you can see all the nominated buildings on the bbc arts website and find out who is the winner of the Riba Stirling prize for architecture live on the bbc news channel next tuesday between 8. 30 and 9pm.
