A traffic restriction scheme comes into effect in an hours time in the india capital, delhi, as the authorities grapple with the worst air pollution the city has experienced for three years. Millions of people have been told to stay indoors, to avoid the toxic blanket of smog thats covered the city. Pratiksha ghildial reports from delhi. Delhi is choking. People here are breathing the citys most toxic air in years, with pollution levels more than 20 times their safe limit. The problem returns here every winter, but many are saying that this is the worst they have experienced. Protesters gathered outside the Prime Ministers house demanding a basic right clean air. They believe there isnt the political will to find a solution. You can obviously see how terrible it is, and its actually scary. You cant see things in front of you. Patients are coming with more lung respiratory diseases, more affected by asthma. One major source of the solution is stubble burning. Farmers in delhis neighbouring states say they dont have the modern machinery they need to clear their fields without setting them alight, so the smoke from their fires drifts over the city, where it stays for days on end. But the worst sufferers are people who work on the streets, like traffic police, tuktuk drivers, and the homeless. Indias government says it is doing what it can. It has banned construction activities, is limiting the number of cars on the road, and has asked for schools to remain shut for a few days. But, despite the Public Health emergency, no long Term Solution seems to be in sight. There was virtually no sunlight in delhi today, due to the thick layer of smog hanging over the city. Here on the streets, it is particularly difficult to breathe, and i can feel an itch in my throat. It is a huge concern for residents, with studies showing that the pollution is causing high levels of lung cancer and premature deaths. Pratiksha ghildial, bbc news, delhi. The British Racing driver, Lewis Hamilton, has secured his sixth formula one world title. The 34 year old took second place at the us grand prix in texas, guaranteeing this years championship. Hamiltons title puts him in second place in the all time f1 standings one behind motorsport legend Michael Schumacher. Many in the world of formula one are now putting hamilton in contention for the title of greatest of all time informally known as the goat. Amongst those congratulating the brit were hamiltons former teammate nico rosberg who wrote on twitter karting together, who would have thought that wed both be f1 World Champion one day. And you . Youve achieved it for the sixth time on your way to becoming the goat. Chris medland is a freelance motorsport journalist writing for racer magazine, he joins me from austin. Where does Lewis Hamilton rank on that list of all time greats . He has to be very near the top. It is hard. It seems like a copout to say you cannot definitively rank them because of the way formula 1 has ranged over the time but certainly hamilton has not done anything wrong because he has taken every opportunity that has come his way and are only now stand one title short of Michael Schumacher achieved, i dont think anyone thought we would see that record threatened. When he got seven it seemed unbeatable. Another hamilton is so close to doing it and still looks like he has plenty of life left in him in formula 1. What is so good about him as a driver . His adaptability. When a car is not perfect he is good at driving around a problem. Today he tried to do an unorthodox strategy, Something Different for a shot at winning. It worked last weekend in mexico. Also during the time he has been in formula 1 there have been changes to the regulations and he has won a different types of cars and engines and tyres. Most of his success has come with mercedes but even mercedes has had to deal with a lot thrown at it in terms of regulation changes to try and knock them off the perch. They have been so relentless and in hamilton is consistent. Imagine his teammate, nick oh. Heat beat into the title in 2016 and some people use that as a swipe at others look at and use that as a swipe at others look atand go use that as a swipe at others look at and go no, that shows that it was at and go no, that shows that it was a free opportunity for both. Some sceptics and there are many i have spoken to, say it is the car that wins the championship, not the driver. Is that true . In a sense, yes. If youve got a better car than you have a better chance of winning a championship stop formula 1 is a tea m a championship stop formula 1 is a team sport and you need the machinery underneath you. You do not have to be the best driver to get into that car. The best driver is a pig are the best teams because they do thejob. So it is no surprise when you get best drivers winning consistently because they are in the best machinery. What makes the very best machinery. What makes the very best stand out is when they win races not the best machinery. He has w011 races not the best machinery. He has w0 n ra ces every races not the best machinery. He has won races every single season he has competed and that is a impressive achievement and that is what makes him stand out.

In hong kong two people are fighting for their lives in hospital after one of the worst nights of violence in the territory since protests began 22 weeks ago. Five people were injured when a man launched a knife attack at a Shopping Centre. Local reports say the attacker had been arguing over politics before taking out a knife. Richard lister reports. Sundays protests began peacefully enough, with demonstrators forming human chains in Shopping Centres, but here, in city plaza, things soon turned violent. A man set upon protesters with a knife, injuring several, and when a pro democracy councillor intervened, he too was attacked, and part of his ear was bitten off. The man with the knife was then beaten up by some of the protesters, but police have not confirmed whether he was among those arrested. Elsewhere, demonstrators smashed up restaurants and riot police were brought in. At the new town plaza, there was a tense stand off as police searched the complex and removed some of the protesters. They in turn harassed the police, shining laser pointers at them and throwing objects. This was the 22nd consecutive weekend of protests in hong kong and after widespread and intense clashes on saturday, it was one of the most violent for some time. Beijing has signalled it intends to toughen its stance against the protests. As yet it is unclear when that might happen or how, but as the injured were taken to hospital, the people of hong kong were left wondering how much longer this can continue.

Hes nowjust one short of michael shumachers record. Two Church Services have been held in london in memory of the 39 vietnamese victims found dead in a lorry container nearly two weeks ago. Police have not confirmed the individual identities of the victim. Chi chi izundu was at one of the services. They gathered to remember. This mass started with a short video of the removal of the trailer with the 39 bodies inside. A minutes silence followed. The service was led by the bishop of westminster, who offered prayers for the victims, their relatives, and the emergency services. I suggested that we pray as well for the traffickers themselves. They might have a change of heart. And i did say that i do think Human Trafficking is an abominable crime, which needs to be eradicated. This community is following news of this investigation closely. It is a community in mourning, as it is believed some members possibly related to those victims found in that trailer two weeks ago may have attended todays mass. The parish priest, father simon, confirmed some families in the uk and vietnam have contacted him with information to help identify their loved ones, and he has passed that on to the police. So far, ive got eight people, and i have given six of them, and two more maybe tomorrow, i will see the police and get more information about these people. There is a reluctance in this community to speak out. An escape from vietnam by boat meant witnessing the deaths of those trying to make the same journey, according to this woman.

They say they are still conducting their investigation, which is spanning many jurisdictions across the world. The leader of the brexit party, nigel farage, says he wont be running for a seat in the Westminster Parliament in decembers british general election. Instead, he says hell focus on touring the uk to support his partys candidates. The news comes days after borisjohnson rejected a call from mr farage to form an Electoral Alliance with the ruling conservatives. Heres our political correspondent, nick erdley. Love him or hate him, nigel farage has been a key face in british politics for years. Its like sponsored drinking. There might be fewer pints these days, more chats with us president s instead. But after years of trying, seven elections, to be precise, he wont be standing to be an mp this time. I dont want to be in politics for the rest of my life. Do i find a seat, try to get myself into parliament, or do i serve the cause better traversing the length and breadth of the united kingdom, supporting 600 candidates . And ive decided the latter course is the right one. So youre not going to stand yourself . No very difficult to do both. Not that he is disappearing. After borisjohnson rejected his offer of a pro brexit pact, he is stepping up his attacks on the governments deal. It doesnt get us out of anything. It doesnt work at any level. It is a gigantic con. We should not sell out to this. Its a remainers brexit. Its virtually worse than staying where we are, and if we go through this route, we will finish up rejoining. Does it matter . Some think the brexit Party Standing could split the pro brexit vote, allowing labour through the middle, like happened here in peterborough in june. The only way to end this uncertainty, to end this indecision, and move on to focus on what they want is to vote for a majority conservative government that, yes, is going to get brexit done in a matter of weeks, but also has an exciting and inclusive agenda. The brexit party are gunning for labour votes too. Jeremy corbyn had this to say on mr farages decision not to stand. Well, its obviously his decision. Its a bit weird to lead a Political Party that is apparently contesting all or most of the seats up in the election, and he himself is not offering himself for election. Hes obviously very comfortable on his mep salary. The brexit party will unveil hundreds of candidates here the brexit party will unveil hundreds of candidates here in westminster tomorrow, but the fact that their star name wont be among them may be, for some, a tacit admission that this could be a tough general election for the party and perhaps there was a personal calculation for nigel farage too that the threat of possibly failing foran that the threat of possibly failing for an eighth time to become an mp just wasnt worth it. Nigel farage still wants to be part of the brexit debate, but at this election, that doesnt mean standing. Nick eardley, bbc news, westminster. 10 british people have been injured in a bus crash in northern france. The vehicle was travelling from paris to london when police say it toppled over taking a motorway exit. In all 33 people were injured, four of them seriously. Its been a weekend of celebrations in south africa after the countrys rugby team thrashed england to win the world cup injapan. The man who led the springboks to glory was siya kolisi, the National Sides first ever black captain in a country where rugby was once the preserve of the white minority. Born and raised in poverty, his success is now an inspiration to millions. Africa correspondent Andrew Harding has been to the city in the eastern cape, where kolisi grew up. The celebrations are continuing. Here on the street where south africas first black rugby captain grew up. Its still a poor neighbourhood, but a proud one today. Its inspiring these dirty streets, its inspiring the country as a whole. Its inspiring the continent. Siya kolisis younger brother still lives here, in the familys humble home. He shows me pictures of the boy who won a scholarship that transformed his life. When he came home for the weekend from school . Yeah, he used to sleep here. So it was a poor family . Yeah, poor, poor. Very poor. At a local bar and butchers shop, an older generation of rugby players remembers the dark days of racial apartheid, when black players such as zola yeye were barred from the national side. So much has changed here. He later became the springboks first black manager but theres still much be done. If sport is a unifying ingredient, so be it. South africa is a beautiful country. Its got Beautiful People but it needs healing and that healing must be sustainable. So this is about nation building . It is about nation building. Because this is an unfinished project. Social cohesion is unfinished business. On these streets, more than half of all young people are jobless. Democracy has failed to deliver for many poor, black south africans. And at siya kolisis old rugby club, children dream of following in his footsteps, but many still turn up hungry. Its still a challenge when it comes to equality. For black players . For black players, of course. We struggle first with facilities. We lack nutrition. It is tempting to exaggerate the impact of sport on any society but south africa is a young democracy, still finding its feet, and badly in need of the sort of inspiration that Nelson Mandela once provided. So this victory really does matter here. Its given an increasingly disillusioned nation a taste of the old mandela magic. Andrew harding, bbc news, port elizabeth. A video game which aims to build bridges between people and communities in the populist era of donald trump and brexit thats how acclaimed creator hideo kojima describes his latest venture in an exclusive bbc interview. Steffan powell has been in tokyo behind the scenes to meet the maverick creator of Death Stranding. Were in tokyo, where theres just hours left for these developers to finish a title thats had the Games Industry talking since it was first announced in 2016. And were the only camera crew in the world allowed in, to witness acclaimed creator Hideo Kojimas unique approach to making games. Famed for popularising stealth games in the 90s where sneaking, not shooting, was the way to play hes always been considered a visionary. Whats soon clear is hes in complete control of that vision. Here, hes personally editing the trailer for Death Stranding. His first game release since setting up his own independent studio is a mysterious tale of a post apocalyptic america. For three years, the advertising and marketing has teased and confused people, leaving many scratching their heads. Whats it all about . While this approach is exciting some, others are nervous, left wondering if anyone is challenging this vision, and wondering if the game will live up to expectations. With gaming worth more than the movie and Music Industries combined, titles like Death Stranding require huge investments, costing millions to develop. Its employing stars like hollywood actors Norman Reedus and lea seydoux. It also has some of musics biggest names contributing to the soundtrack. This is a new ip. And in this day and age, when there is so much money, taking so much risk, it is unusual to see a new ip like this. Even that in itself in 2019 should be applauded. The people around me here are working on gamings biggest secret. Weve got artists, coders, level designers, producers, technical staff, all here and working their socks off, to be fair, to finish the game and make sure it is up to the standards that the gaming world expects. As the team celebrated getting the game ready for its release, the questions turned to the future. Will they still be celebrating when people outside this room get a chance to see what theyve been working on . An intriguing game.

Not too many weather changes on the way this week, with low pressure staying in charge. It was somewhat quieter on sunday, but plenty of evidence out there as to how wet its been recently. And this week will deliver more rain at times, so that part of the forecast isnt changing. But theres something new it will be turning colder as we go through the week. Now, why is it unsettled . Low pressure in charge. One area of low pressure with us as we start the week. Now, by mid week, there will be a brief lull, allowing colder air to move down from the north. But that lull is all too brief, as more weather fronts come in later in the week, and that means more rain coming in later in the week. Lets see how monday is shaping up. This is how we start off. There could be a few mist and fog patches around parts of northern ireland, Northern England, southern scotland, for example. This area of rain is slowly feeding its way northwards. As it clears away from the midlands and into east anglia, probably a lot of fine weather to come during monday. Southern england into wales with showers. Some of those could be heavy and thundery. No doubt about the wettest weather, that is into eastern scotland. Persistent and heavy rain here. A strong, gusty easterly wind, with gusts up to 50 miles an hour along the coast. These are average speeds. Elsewhere, certainly not as blustery as it will be in scotland. I think north west scotland, western isles, northern isles, staying mainly dry. Temperatures around 10 13 celsius. Out and about on monday evening, there will still be that rain in eastern scotland. So theres a chance of seeing some flooding there, starting tonight. But overnight its the south east of scotland keeping hold of the rain here. It will turn a bit drier at least across north east scotland. Therell be some areas of rain and showers around elsewhere in the uk, the chance of seeing some fog patches this time, especially the further south you are. Then on into tuesday, north north easterly winds taking that colder air south across the uk. West is best for drier, brighter weather. Still either some outbreaks of rain or showers, mostly across the eastern sides of the uk. And more of us across the northern half of the uk topping out in single figures. Heres the big picture, then, as we go from tuesday into wednesday. This is the brief lull in the weather. Itll mean frost in places as wednesday begins. Some fog patches too, but here comes the next set of weather fronts. After the chilly start, increasing cloud, some outbreaks of rain starting to feed in from the west on wednesday. A bit of uncertainty about the timing. As that bumps into colder air, well see a bit of snow falling on the Higher Ground across parts of Northern England and scotland. Its apparently the time of year. Thats your weather. Which is spanning many jurisdictions across the world. This is bbc news, the headlines new trafffic restrictions will be imposed in delhi as millions of people in indias capital are told to stay indoors to avoid the toxic smog. Drivers will only be admitted on alternate dates based on their number plates. Schools have been closed and flights to the city have been diverted.
