Hello. This is bbc news. Well be taking a look at tomorrow mornings papers in a moment. But first the headlines. Thousands take to the streets across the uk to condemn borisjohnsons decision to suspend parliament. In hong kong, police storm an underground train using pepper spray and batons, as the city sees some of the worst street battles yet. Its the very centre of hong kong and look at it. The government buildings under siege, complete mayhem. More than 50 migrants have been detained as they tried to cross the English Channel to reach kent. Several boats have been intercepted. Formula 2 driver Anthoine Hubert has been killed in a crash at the belgian grand prix. Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. With me are city ams comment and features editor, rachel cunliffe, and the journalist and author Yasmin Alibhai brown. Welcome to both of you. Many of tomorrows front pages are already in. Lets give you a flavour. Brexit endgame thats on the front of the sunday telegraph, as borisjohnson considers ousting tory rebels who undermine his attempts to secure a new deal with brussels, and Michel Barnier vows that he will not ditch the backstop. The sunday express reports that the Prime Minister will call an election within days if remain mps succeed in blocking a no deal brexit. Theres a similar story on the front of the sunday times, with borisjohnson warning tory mps that they must back him to deliver brexit or risk putting Jeremy Corbyn in power. The times also has the latest on the governments plans to end freedom of movement on october 31st, writing that these have been torn up due to legal reasons. The observer features an image of crowds outside downing street protesting at the shutdown of parliament alongside reports that former Civil Service chiefs have joined calls for a top level inquiry into how borisjohnsons closest aide, dominic cummings, was able to sack one of the chancellors advisers. And the mail on sunday follows suit with a brexit lead, publishing comments from brexiteerjacob rees mogg. The paper also has an exclusive interview with the father of the duchess of sussex, meghan markle. So, ladies, im sensing a theme this evening, understandably, head of a very big week in the brexit world. Starting with the sunday times, rachel, an exclusive interview with borisjohnson, the rachel, an exclusive interview with Boris Johnson, the headline, rachel, an exclusive interview with borisjohnson, the headline, boris telling rebels, its me, or call been chaos. Boris can do interviews with newspapers other than the Daily Telegraph or corbyn chaos. We know that theres an election on the cards, we know there was a radical move, shall we say, for him to decide to Prorogue Parliament last week. Mps are coming on tuesday and they will use the limited Time Available to try and stop him in some way. Theyve got various tactics. Borisjohnson also has tactics, and his team has tactics for stopping them. As a last resort its going to be calling a general election. He says, its me orJeremy Corbyn. He is promising, quite strange for a conservative Prime Minister, especially one after nine yea rs of minister, especially one after nine years of conservative led austerity, promising a spending bonanza, £3. 5 billion, education, social care, all the things that the tories cut back on. Hes promising that if mps back him, versus the chaos ofJeremy Corbyn if they dont win. This is really interesting. This man, you know, mr public school, eton, zing and vim, hes so scared ofJeremy Corbyn. That comes through. Whats underneath the gung ho, they are genuinely worried about Jeremy Corbyn, especially the church declaration. Something worries them, so declaration. Something worries them, so its good to see. I am referring to borisjohnson in my column as boris caesar i am, im constantly calling him that. His dictatorial qualities . Yes, demolishing a very old democratic system of checks and balances, the respect. It didnt matter if youre on the right or left, there was a respect for the institution. He and his aides are kicking it down. But im very interesting, now is the fear of corbyn that he is using. And this spending, where was the money . Weve had people dying because of austerity and there was no money. Mrs may was saying, theres no magic money tree. Yeah. Now they found a forest is this a giant carrot . Yes, he knows hell have to fight the election, he knows that labour is going to come after the tories hard, and they did in the last election, those topics, austerity. He knows that the public is sick of austerity and weve realised that while balancing the books is important, we also need schools and police and social care and the nhs and the other things that have been cut back. He knows that it is an attack that will be used against him, so his coming out finding now. Where the money is going to come from given that Philip Hammond put the money aside in case of a no deal brexit and it looks like were heading towards one, isnt made clear. I question you a bit on the caesar point. I compared him to alexander the great, not necessarily positively calling him caesar is better trying to untangle it, parliament, rather than trying to do the complicated parliamentary mass that theresa may did, he is trying to cut through it, causing outrage complicated parliamentary maths. We havent been in this kind of constitutional predicament. We have a Representative Democracy where parliamentarians are elected to do a job. He cannot do what hes doing. He can. He cannot do it cost free. Also you cannot trust this man. He makes all these promises, making promises to the women in his life, to the voters, and in the end. There is a very interesting little aside. Yes, very interesting. Robert harris, the wonderful author, telling the sunday times that johnson made up a story about him. He makes up a lot of stuff. Talking about backtracking on things, we can jump about backtracking on things, we can jump down to the bottom, rachel. An end to freedom of movement postponed. This was a promise, a rather hard line approach we heard from the home secretary and Boris Johnson that on brexit day come october the 31st, freedom of movement would go out of the window. Maybe not now. They cant do it. They have got legal advice. Priti patel, a habit of making strongly worded statements but lets be honest, no clue what shes talking about. She said Free Movement would end overnight on the 31st of october. They were going to do it in the upcoming immigration bill but its not going to get through parliament in time so they were looking at changing the law without passing legislation and they had legal advice saying it is illegal. A 70 chance of losing in court and edward derail the government no deal agenda. And it would derail. You cant change the law without parliament but thats the least of their worries when it comes to ending freedom of movement because eu nationals were told they had until 2020, to apply for settled status. Many applications are pending, being wrongly rejected, the home office is handling it abysmally which is why they have done a u turn. Which is why they have done a uturn. We will keep going on. The observer, crowds filling whitehall during the protests. Yes, one of the things thats been interesting, and unfortunately i couldnt go to the demo. Ive been to the others. It was nationwide. Its not seen as a london centric thing. Around the country, it isnt so much brexit or remain, but there is a strong feeling that the parliamentary syste m feeling that the parliamentary system is now under threat and im very pleased that so many people turned out. It will make no difference, unfortunately, because we have somebody who is like i said, very particular, like caesar. I find it very upsetting that once already happening beyond the government, beyond our Prime Minister, these people, not elected, brought in, which every government minister does, but theres one here who is actually running a reign of terror. Actually running a reign of terror. The main story in the observer, concerning the man that many people call borisjohnsons top advisor, some call him an evil brexit mastermind, dominic cummings. This is an urgent enquiry being called for into his reign of terror. Whats this about . Many things. He fired one of the aids of sajid javid without telling sajid javid. Escorted her out. Escorted off the premises, escorted by a police officer. No proof that she did anything wrong, she denies it. Her crime is speaking to herformer boss, Philip Hammond, and another one of his aides, which he denies. This is a culture of distrust, a bunker mentality, being run by dominic cummings, extending through the government aids, the advisers, the government aids, the advisers, the Civil Servants who are terrified about their new boss, and mps as well. The mail on sunday, their headline, bring down boris, you wouldnt there. This is jacob rees mogg. Actually inside things get interesting because inside that bunker, if you want to call it that, the war room, they will be crunching the war room, they will be crunching the numbers as borisjohnson thinks about calling a general election and thats what the mail on sunday have been looking at, how things would play out. This is delta poll who are reliable but what the paper has done with these figures, jill twyman, who often comes up, it shows a volatility, a real volatility in the population, in the political picture, in where we are. Some of the most interesting things are here, if there was an election, the boris bounce is still there, according to this poll. They would win 35 and a majority of 28. But if they got together with the brexit party, if they bought them off, got some sort of a deal going, and i think nigel farage really wants to be in parliament. Hes been so angry that he never got elected. He might doa that he never got elected. He might do a deal. I dont think he will because the brexit party is doing astonishingly. I dont understand why, doing very well. This really shows how we cant predict whats going to happen. We know that the conservatives are the most popular single party but their vote is split with the brexit party. The Labour Party Vote is split with the lib dems. It depends whether any of those groups can form alliances. It will come down to individual seats. Borisjohnson is will come down to individual seats. Boris johnson is popular all over the country, but hes not that popular in his home constituency, west london. You might see a joint. We could get rid of him he could win the election and lose his seat. Control your excitement nearly out of time. One story that isnt brexit related, the independent have a story they are calling exclusive. I cant find it. Its to do with how rape cases are treated depending on where you live, a postcode lottery. Yes, they say the number of reports that are referred onto and go to trial varies dramatically by region, which they put down in part two Police Officers being stretched, which we know are, and Boris Johnson is being stretched, which we know are, and borisjohnson is going to add some Police Officers, which is great. Pointing out that the justice you can receive for rape and Sexual Assault varies dramatically across the country and this shows that there are some really important issues that we arent talking about as much as we should do because we are talking about brexit. Yeah, absolutely. So much is on hold, and these figures are astonishing. Devon and cornwall, 4. 7 . 20 in norfolk and cornwall, 4. 7 . 20 in norfolk and south wales. Not as much chance of it going to trial. Sorry we had to touch on it quickly. A lot of brexit stuff, we will look later. Thats it for the papers this hour. Rachel and yasmin will be back at 11. 30 for another look at the papers. More about the general election, the potential general election and next on bbc news, its the travel show. Hello and welcome to the travel show, coming to you this week from bonny scotland, where we will be discovering some of this regions distinctive dwellings stretching back to the neolithic age. We are starting this week here in the outer hebrides, or western isles, a group of islands off the extreme north west coast of scotland. Known for their rugged beauty and wildlife, its also where youll find these. They are called crannogs, and they mightjust seem like random, small, overgrown islands, but they were once ancient man made loch dwellings during the iron age. Or they could be even older than we think. Newly found artefacts now date them back even further, to the neolithic age, around 5000 years ago. And i am with the man who found them all, right here at this beautiful loch. Yeah, just over there on that island, on the west side of that island, right on the side of it, thats where i found the neolithic material. 15 feet off there. Well, in the early days when i was here crewing the coastguard helicopter here, i noticed quite a number of lochs, with little islets on them. They didnt look natural at all. They looked like they were just too round. Some had walls round them and i thought well, i wonder what was going on in these lochs many, many years ago. So tell me, what did you find in this loch and other lochs around here . What i did find was beautifully decorated ceramics under the water here. But i think a more specific find i did make, on the bottom of this loch around the island here, near the island, was an almost complete bowl. My archaeologist friends, mark elliott, i gave him a phone call and he came down to have a look at the stuff. And he took his glasses off, put them back on again and he said, where did you find this stuff . I said ifound it in the loch here, and he said we dont find that stuff here. I said, i didnt put it there. He says, you dont know what you found here, boy. This is early neolithic. Its not supposed to be here. All these islets and islands only go back to the iron age. Change in the history of scotland. Thats quite some feat for a bowl. I think for a bowl, all right, yes, it certainly was, aye. Can anyone come out here and started rummaging around under the water there to find some amazing relics . No. Before i go to any loch, what i do initially is seek permission from the estate or from the trust or from anybody that owns the area. I get permission before i start, before i stick my head under the water. Chriss finds make some of these crannogs older than egypts pyramids. He is now working closely with archaeologists from england to see what other secrets they can unearth. While the crannogs in the outer hebrides are certainly some of the oldest, hundreds of these stone islands are scattered across scotland, forgotten and overgrown in its lochs. Im headed back over to the mainland to the Scottish Crannog centre in the highlands. Im keen to find out just how they were used thousands of years ago. The timing is pretty great because we are in the middle of an iron age festival. Folk music plays. So this is a bone whistle, that is one of the earliest Musical Instruments in human history. And im going to give it a go. Whistle toots. 0h, 0k whistle toots. And this is what some of the crannogs would have looked like. Wow, look at this hello there hello, welcome welcome to the crannog. Welcome to the crannog, yes. This is much bigger than i thought it would be. Its very spacious, its like a tardis, isnt it . Small on the outside and you come in and. We have always been wowed by that illusion. Its large but very cosy. You have essential hearth and a domestic seating area for everybody to sit around, to eat their meals at the end of the day. Behind you we have a little pen, for putting the animals in over the winter, we think. And weve got whats here . Well, basically youve got an upper level here for sleeping in. If youve got about 20 people to get into the crannog and sleep at night, some of them may well have to sleep on these upper levels. The festival around the reconstructed crannog helps give a sense of what it might have been like. With people teaching traditional crafts and life skills, essential to iron age living. The plan is to make butter out of this cream using only my bare hands. Ill see how i go. Its quite cold. Who needs a whisk . That, my friends is butter made with my bare hand. Ill give it a little go. Its definitely butter. Oh, yes. Nice fresh butter, i will never buy butter again. And apparently they use coracles yes, that round thing made of animal skin to navigate the lochs and waterways. Its cold what do you think top speed is for the really accomplished coracle paddler . Not much quicker than i am going right now, ill be frank with you. How old would this kind of structure have been . So this one is we dated this to 500 bc. This kind of thing because this is recent . How much effort and time would Something Like that have taken to build . It took us three years to build this crannog we think for them 10 months at the very most. We estimate in this building weve got over 700 trees together, whereas compared to a round house on the land you are looking at about 75 trees. So why did they go to all this effort to build something out on the water . Its a good question and theres a simple archaeological answer, is that we dont really know. Thats whats brilliant about the prehistory. Realistically we think there are three main reasons. As a secure structure, it is out on the water with a walkway going on, you have one way on, you have one way off. The other way you can look at it is with it being on the water, trade would play a role with this. Youre out for everyone to see for miles around. On top of that as well, what you might be looking at is, arguably, status. Why go through all the time and effort . It could just be to show off. And true to scottish weather, it has started to rain. So what better way to stay dry than gathering back inside the crannog, listening to folksongs, similar to ones that might have been sung during the iron age or even the neolithic age, over 5000 years ago. To end this week we are off to the argentine capital of buenos aires. In recent years it has become known as one of south americas most lgbt friendly and open minded cities. But its biggest cultural export, tango, is not exactly known as the most inclusive of dances. Despite the fact that in its early days men often danced the tango together, mainly because of a lack of available female partners. Tango music. Tango is part of our identity as argentinians. And the idea also of the men and women image, it is also very tango is part of our identity as argentinians. And the idea also of the men and women image, it is also very connected with our culture. Tango is very machista. The only way to dance tango was with a man, and only men could ask women to dance. The idea of queer tango was something very strong when we proposed it, because it was something against our culture, like breaking the rules. Tango music. We already achieve many things, but what still is a challenge is the possibility for the queer people, for the gay and lesbians or trans people to dance, be comfortable and freely in the traditional milongas. Thats all we have time for on this weeks programme, but coming up next week lucy is in switzerland, taking part in a Wine Festival that only happens once every 25 years. The sun is blazing, its so hot, im melting. Totally worth it look at this atmosphere and in the meantime, dont forget you can catch up with us while were out on the road in real time by checking out our social media feeds, and sharing your travels with us and the rest of the world. Until next time, from me, christa larwood, and the rest of the travel show team here in scotland, its goodbye. Hello, there. Its going to be a much cooler, fresher start to the new month. The start of meteorological autumn as well. Weve got some showers continuing overnight, particularly in scotland and a peppering in northern ireland. One or two coming into Northern England and wales. Further south, clearer skies. The wind will be easing a bit as well. North westerly wind bringing the cooler air and temperatures will be lower than they were last night. Plenty of sunshine to start the day across england and wales. More showers for a while over northern ireland. Mostly pushing the east over scotland into north east england towards the wash and some of them may be heavy and thundery. Feeling cooler and fresher everywhere. Typical temperatures may be 15, 17 degrees. A touch higher in the south of england where it should be a dry day. More sunshine to start the day. A chilly start, Atlantic Wind coming in on monday, meaning increasing cloud. Northern ireland and especially scotland, quite wet. 15 degrees in the central belt. 22 in south east england. This is bbc world news. The headlines at 11 00 thousands take to the streets across the uk to condemn borisjohnsons decision to suspend parliament. In hong kong, police storm an underground train using pepper spray and batons as the city sees some of the worst street battles yet. It isa it is a very centre of hong kong, and look at it. They warned them not to protest today. The government beatings buildings under sage and it is complete mayhem
