Good evening. Welcome to bbc news. Schools in england are being promised billions more in spending over the next three years, in an announcement from borisjohnson. Rising to nearly £5 billion the following year, and reaching just over £7 billion by 2022 23. It is unclear where the money is coming from, but with the Spending Reviewed you next week, it is another indication that an early election may be on the cards. 0ur Political Correspondent, alex forsyth, reports. The Prime Minister hosted a press Conference Today with a younger crowd than usual. Convenient, then, that number 10 had this news ready for a group of school aged journalists. We are putting a lot more money into schools, you will be pleased to know. Pleased, yes, but there was some scepticism. Where is this money going to come from . Are you going to have to cut money from other things . No, were not cutting money from other things. But for years, ministers have been Holding Tight to the countrys purse strings, despite schools crying out for more cash. So is all this part of spending ahead of a possible election . He says not. It is simply not fair if you have kids in schools where funding has fallen so far behind. We are lifting up, levelling up across the country. Thats the right thing to do now. The money is there and we will make sure that we pursue economic policies supporting business, supporting enterprise, so that we grow the economy further to pay for further such investments. Snap this Primary School in leicestershire, like many, has been struggling to balance the books. It even considered closing for half a day a week but decided not to after asking parents. But across the country, schools have had to cut staff and, in some cases, ask parents to contribute towards costs. Here, the head of this Academy Trust gave a cautious welcome to the new funding. I think it will make an enormous difference. I think the devil will be in the detail. It will be interesting to see how much we will get next year or now when we really need it, knowing that more money is coming. We need that money as soon as possible back in schools. In fact, it all starts from next year. In secondary schools, funding for each pupil will go up from a minimum of £4,800 to £5,000. The year after, in Primary Schools, it will increase from at least £3,500 to £4,000 per pupil. In total, schools in england will have an extra £7. 1 billion to spend in 2022 compared to this year. All adding up to some £14 billion more over three years. This is a significant increase over three years for schools. It will relieve some of the pressures on their budgets, it will mean that their funding per pupil returns to its level back in 2010. After years of austerity, this is not the only spending commitment this government has made, fuelling speculation it is preparing for a possible early general election. While this money for schools, like this one, has broadly been welcomed, some teaching unions want more detail about when it will be delivered in full. Schools and colleges are having to make staffing cuts and im not sure the announcement will help with the immediate and what we know of course is that there is a general election in the offing and therefore some of the promises made to date, we will have to see how they materialise and whether the people making them are the people who will be able to lead deliver on them. But for now, a significant boost is on the way for schools, many of which have been struggling with their sums for a while. Now we are expecting further announcements tomorrow from the chancellor about money for further education colleges in six forms. This all comes ahead of a Spending Review where, next week, the government will set out limits to money each department hats. There are still questions about exactly where all this funding is coming from. Im told from number ten we can expect more detail on that next week. But for now, it seems that Boris Johnsons still week. But for now, it seems that borisjohnsons still relatively new government is keen on making announcements that it thinks will prove popular with the public. Joining me now is thejoint general secretary of the National Education union, kevin courtney. How significant will this money be in your view . There is lots of money in this announcement, to billion for next year. Two 6p. It means the schools will not have to make cuts they were planning next april, but it will not make right the cuts that have been made already. We think this announcement should have come with a note of apology from the government, and otology to the head teachers, campaigners like us where the government says there has been more money than before, and the apology to the parents and children. Whether the children were denied the musics to make a music and arts due to the cuts, we nonetheless welcome that ourcampaign, to the cuts, we nonetheless welcome that our campaign, along with head teachers and parents, has succeeded in getting them to put money in. So it isa in getting them to put money in. So it is a start, and we will do work to show how much more is needed. Because this £7 billion in three yea rs because this £7 billion in three years time we still think that is £2 billion short of a target. Sorry, isnt it over £14 billion . It is £2. 6 billion, then £4. 8 billion, then £7. 1 billion. The institute says this increase should be enough to restore School Spending to pre austerity levels. So you will be back to where you were . We dont think the i fs is absolutely right about that, the use of the metric of inflation to look at these. We look at Actual School costs, and we think that by that three year time school the micro scale, with think schools will need £9 billion to be in a standstill position. It is welcome that they have listened to the campaign, this is unsurprising because in 2017, my union spent money during the Election Campaign advertising with the various ma nifestos advertising with the various manifestos of the Political Parties said, and three quarters of a Million People change their vote because of the campaign on schooling. Im not surprised that politicians are listening to our campaign, you have to be aware of election promises. But we welcome the fact that there is this money, we think the other parties will offer a similar or more money, we are hoping for more promises from the lib dems and labour that will go beyond this. But it is not enough to put right the cuts that schools have already suffered. So what are the extra costs that you have identified that the i fs doesnt seem to have donein that the i fs doesnt seem to have done in your view . The i fs is a com pletely done in your view . The i fs is a completely respectable way of doing things, they look at things and the general measure of inflation in the economy is one of their ways of testing against any costing industry. Weve been able to use government figures from the National Audit office and from the governments own analysis at school costs, and weve been able to see that there have been more costs in education because of increases in national insurance, the government has loaded on School Governing bodies, the election levy ticks some bits of the teacher in ta pay rises all of those mean more inflation, so we are confident that the figures we put forward with the school cut coalition a few weeks ago that outlined the money that we do need in our schools. These monies are welcome, they are a sign of the campaign being successful, but they make us want to redouble our efforts so that instead of funding education at the lowest level our government can get away with, we realise that in an economy facing the challenges weve got, we want a world class education and we should fund the education and we should fund the education that our children really need. Thank you very much for talking to us, kevin. Think you. And well find out how this story and many others are covered in tomorrows front pages at 10 40pm and 11 30pm this evening in the papers. 0ur guestsjoining me tonight are michael booker, Deputy Editor of the daily express, and polly mackenzie, chief executive of demos. The Prime Minister has accused Opposition Mps and rebel conservatives of undermining brexit negotiations with brussels. Borisjohnson said the uk was less likely to get the deal it wanted, if the eu thought mps were trying to block a no deal exit. Mrjohnsons facing fierce criticism for his decision to suspend parliament next month. Among those opposing the move is the former conservative Prime Minister, sirjohn major, whosjoined a legal case at the high court to halt the suspension. 0ur chief Political Correspondent vicki young reports from westminster. Save our democracy stop the coup when it comes to brexit, the feelings run high. Save our democracy this weeks announcement that parliament would not sit for five weeks brought angry protesters to the gates of downing street. The government insists mps still have plenty of time to express their views. Critics say borisjohnson is behaving like a tinpot dictator. When you became Prime Minister, you talked about uniting the country but now youre talking about forcing through a no deal brexit, something that you know democratically elected parliament does not agree with. Youre being deliberately divisive, arent you . We want to do a deal. Ive talked over the last few days to lots of leaders around the eu, and everybody can see the rough shape of what needs to be done. Its going to take work. Its going to take a lot of energy for us to get there. And the best way to do that is if our friends and partners over the channel dont think that brexit can be somehow blocked by parliament. Theyre trying to block no deal, theyre not trying to block brexit. There trying to lock a no deal brexit. The weird thing is that the more the parliamentarians try to block the no deal brexit, the more likely it is that we will end up in that situation. So, the best thing now is for us to get on and make our points to our european friends with clarity and with vigour and thats what were doing. Now this former conservative Prime Minister says he will challenge mrjohnson in court. Sirjohn major knows all about tory fights over europe. They plagued his time in office. Today he offered to help campaigners make their case that the government is breaking the law. That is one battle the other will be fought in parliament. They will have less time, but opposition parties and some tories will try to change the law to force the government to delay brexit again. I hope that parliament will take a series of actions in a proper, orderly way, that, by the end of the week mean that borisjohnson knows that, as Prime Minister, he has the backing of many, many of us to get a deal but if he doesnt get a deal, he is going to have to seek an extension. To succeed, mps from several parties will need to work together. So, are they confident . Im always hopeful and i dont want to make predictions. All i know is that what we are trying to do the right thing to do and i believe a majority of mps recognise that a no deal exit is very damaging to our economy. Meanwhile, ministers have promised to step up the tempo on talks with the eu but irelands deputy Prime Minister isnt sounding optimistic. At the moment, nothing credible has come from the British Government in the context of an alternative to the backstop. And if that changes, great. We will look at it in dublin but, more importantly, it can be the basis of a discussion in brussels. But it has got to be credible. Borisjohnson is being asked searching questions from many sides. Did you always have the ambition of being Prime Minister . Well, no, iwanted. I had various ambitions. I briefly thought that i could be a rock star but then i had a plan to be. I wanted to make kitchen tiles. That was a total flop. He will hope his Brexit Strategy doesnt end up the same way. Vicki young, bbc news, westminster. With me is the labour peer and prominent remain campaigner, lord adonis. Thank you very much forjoining us. To what extent do you see Boris Johnson is using prorogation as a strategy to bring the eu 27 into line with what he wants . It is more a strategy to stop there being debates in britain about his own policy, in particular his use of no deal, which would be catastrophic for the country. John major is taking him to court today because he says that no deal is invalid, that suspending parliament is invalid. He wants a judicial review. Which is the use of the courts to say what johnson is doing is unconstitutional. Almost everyone understands how the constitution works and they know that suspending parliament for five weeks in the middle of a crisis which could lead to their not being enough food in the shops, a shortage in medical supplies, people being unable to get in and out of the country is not the right thing. The right thing is for parliament to be meeting, taking the decisions alongside the government, and for the two to come together, which is what borisjohnson is doing is divide and rule. Hes setting parliament against the government, which is a very bad thing to do. On this business of no deal and our european colleagues, of course no one thinks. No deal would be catastrophic for us in the europe, and we need to take it off the table entirely. Weve been talking to the think take that looks at eu and britain post brexit in the relationship between the two, and they said they are seeing signs in brussels of a shift a recognition that no deal could be on the cards, and that would not be beneficial at all to the eu 27, particularly to places like rotterdam and the jordans democrat germans. So who is to say let him go do this negotiation and see how far he gets with the prospect of prorogation in the background . With the prospect of prorogation in the background . The eu doesnt want no deal any more than people here like me wanted. So what about getting them to shift on those binding agreements that they said they couldnt look at it kudela the only reason we are in this territory is because of borisjohnson. Back in march the eu extended the negotiating period for seven months so we didnt no deal. Eu leaders have said if we want to extend it again beyond 0ctober, they would extend it again so we dont have to have no deal. The only person having no deal on the table as barnes the micro borisjohnson. No deal on the table as barnes the micro Boris Johnson. Thats not true. Theresa may was saying a while ago that no deal was better than a bad deal, and the deal she put forward did not go through parliament. That is not Boris Johnson was my fault that parliament couldnt sort itself up to come up with some kind of commendation that would get the agreement across the line. The people like me who look at the Withdrawal Agreement and said it was a very bad deal for british jobs and prosperity because of what would happen in that deal, us paying £39 billion to the eu for less good trade terms that we have now. That would mean loads ofjobs and investment in britain would go simply because of that deal. So what we said at the time, which is still what should happen, is the people should decide if there was a referendum, and that was the resolution. When faced with that solution in march, what theresa may did was to take no deal off the table. She applied for the extension period to article 50, and what happened should be a referendum. What would solve this crisis immediately as Boris Johnson acknowledging there is no majority in parliament for a very bad deal on offer, theres no majority in parliament for no deal, which would be catastrophic forjobs parliament for no deal, which would be catastrophic for jobs and parliament for no deal, which would be catastrophic forjobs and food supplies, trade, people being able to move in and out of the country. The right thing to do would be to put this back to the british people in need general election. Hes refusing to do that, which is why we are in this crisis. But it is not true to say that borisjohnson is for no deal, it had been part of the discussions in the past. We are not talking about a second referendum here, we are looking to have the best of three because we decided in 2016 that we would leave. Referendum would resolve this issue now. How can you be sure there what if it comes back to say that we still want to go . A referendum would be called by parliament. Parliament does not call referendums willy nilly, it will be called. But the referendum we had has got us to where we are now. How would another referendum make a difference . We are in a situation now where we need to resolve a decision as to whether or not we will leave the eu on terms that are very bad. What if the referendums as we believe . Then we need to do the best we can. We can do that now. Parliament must do the best for the people, which is why opinion surveys show that people think parliament should be doing itsjob and not sent packing like Boris Johnson should be doing itsjob and not sent packing like borisjohnson has done. This shows we are in a deep crisis. Of course there is an easy way of solving this and there are sharply conflicting opinions on this. It is not the right thing to suspend parliament and for the government to behave dictatorial he as it is at the moment. Given this really sharp big difference of opinion on such a vital matter, what should happen is parliament should meet and the only resolution that would make sense is to put this issue back to the british people either in an election ora british people either in an election or a referendum. Lord adonis, thank you. The headlines on bbc news. The governments announced billions of pounds of extra money for schools in england.

The president of brazil, jair bolsonaro, has banned setting fires to clear land for 60 days in response to the massive increase in the number of fires in the amazon rainforest. Mr bolsonaro has faced intense criticism at home and abroad for failing to protect the rainforest. The amazon, which helps to slow down the pace of global warming, has seen more than 80,000 fires break out so far this year. Right now, there are close to 2,000 fires burning in the amazon region. Sophie long has this report from para state, deep in the amazon. This was once lush rainforest, but now sparse land, a result of deforestation in the years gone by. But this year there has been a massive surge in the number of fires set to clear the trees, and the landscape along the bau road that takes us deep into the jungle bears the scars of the blazes that are now threatening a whole way of life. In the bau indigenous village, they are preparing for a naming ceremony for the latest addition to this tight knit, traditional community. But as they prepare to celebrate new life, the village chief tells me the threat to his people is increasing with every day of Jair Bolsonaros presidency. Translation if the president continues with his policies, he will diminish Indigenous Lands so that he can confine us and exterminate us. That is what will happen. Next year, the burning will be even bigger, but we will be here fighting and resisting. We are prepared to die fighting for our land because we are warriors that are not afraid of the brazilian government. As the fires continue to burn, the smoke continues to rise from the forest. In novo progresso, there is a heavy haze all around. It is smothering the city and its choking its children. Carla te silvas three year old daughter has pneumonia. Two year old. She is convinced she contracted it because of the smoke. She says if she doesnt get the right treatment, she could die. Translation the lives of our children are being jeopardised by people that dont have any sense. They are doing harm to other people, they are just thinking about themselves. It is something i dont have words for. They do the damage and we are the ones who suffer, the children and their mothers. I asked the nurse on duty if childrens lives are being put at risk. Yes, she tells me, notjust the children. Its dangerous for everyone. Translation this is a huge problem. If things keep going like this, unfortunately the consequences will be even worse than the ones we are already witnessing. Even though it is not happening inside of our own homes, we are all living in this place. Everybody here wants the smoke to go away. Even when the fires have been put out this is what remains scorched earth, charred skeletons of trees. The dense rain forest that once stood here is no more, the species that lived in it are gone. All that remains is the flat, black land of deforestation and this has happened in more than 80,000 places across the amazon this year alone. Sophie long, bbc news, Novo Progreso in the amazon. Five teenagers have been arrested on suspicion of arson after a fire engulfed dozens of lorry trailers at a household appliance factory in peterborough. The black smoke could be seen for miles from the uk headquarters of whirlpool, which owns hotpoint. A spokesman for whirlpool said the 48 trailers which had caught fire contained spare parts.

Well, you could hire pet detectives to help track them down. Thats exactly what the warwickshire owners of leo, a maine coon cat, did. Hed been missing for almost three weeks.

And, Aaron Taylor Johnson plays a recovering drug addict in a million little pieces. Find out whatjames king made of that, and the weeks other cinema releases, in the film review at 8. 45 women who have hrt for the menopause experience an increased risk of developing Breast Cancer for more than a decade after treatment ends, according to a major study. Researchers from Oxford University looked at more than 100 thousand women from around the world, and say the results mean the risk of Breast Cancer is double what women are currently being told. Heres james gallagher. You think why am i suddenly feeling like this . Three women, nicky, andrea and diane, all united by their experience of menopause. I got very close to taking my own life, so it made me feel suicidal. This is not a walk in the park . No, not at all. Far from it. And brain fog and memory problems. I was losing my temper over ridiculous things, really rage filled anger. One of the most scary things is the fear of dementia. Why cant i remember that . Why cant i remember where i have been . Over the decision of taking hrt, there are known risks, how did you come to that decision . Is it easy or difficult . Before, i was determined i was going to do it naturally because i had only heard the horror stories. Then when the symptoms started i thought, this is really difficult. Initially i did not take it and that was around this lack of information, what i knew was very outdated. But i can honestly say i would not have been here today without it, it has saved my life, there is no doubt about it. With hindsight do any of you regret the decision . Absolutely not. Not at all. Hrt increases the risk of Breast Cancer for more than a decade after treatment stops. They believe the dangers are twice as high as previously thought, but what does that mean . For every 50 women taking daily oestrogen and progesterone therapy for every five years, three will have developed Breast Cancer anyway, and one would get Breast Cancer as a direct result of their hormone therapy. I think this is new data, new information, we did not know before about hrt, and it is extremely important that this information is taken into account in new guidelines. I could not stop taking it and go back to how i was. I think my husband would leave me the Royal College of gps says patients should not panic and hormone therapy is an effective treatment for menopausal symptoms.
