Were just a couple of days away from the ryder cup getting under way, in rome. It will be the first tournament since the start of the Breakway Liv Golf series. Brooks koepka is the only rebel golfer taking part on the us team, europe made the decision to exclude liv golfers so no ryder cup legends sergio garcia, lee westwood, and ian poulter. Its certainly a little strange not having them around, but i think this week of all weeks, its going to hit home with them that theyre not here, and i think they are going to miss being here more than we are missing them. I think this week is a realisation that the decision that they made has led to not being part of this week, and thats tough and the landscape in golf is ever changing and more dynamic, and we will see whats happening and whether they will be a part of it in the future. I always thought leading up to this week is when its going to hit home that they are not going to be here. Theres also been an all star celebrity match, taking place over seven holes on the ryder cup course. Novak djokovic traded in his Tennis Racket to take his opening tee shot, while gareth bale, wales� not sure where this was going. While gareth bale, wales� all time record goal scorer, and a five Time Champions League winner was also taking part and they were both on the winning side playing for colin montgomerie, the american corey pavin captained the other team. There are nine more league cup games later, the last of the third round ties. The winners willjoin League One Exeter in the next round after they knocked out Premier League luton. Eight time winners Manchester City travel to newcastle. City boss Pep Guardiola has confirmed that england midfielder Kalvin Phillips will start just his fifth game for the club since joining from leeds last year, where he impressed under their manager at the time, marcelo bielsa. Marcello gave kalvin the best, and i would love to have done with Kalvin What Marcello has done to him. But thats what it is. Sometimes we struggle with a few things, but hes open minded, always wanting to learn and help, and this is what ive tried to do. Its the last of the quaterfinals in the Scottish League cup, with 3 3 premiership ties including rangers who face livingston, at ibrox. The Semifinal Draw will follow that match.

Jorge vilda the former head coach of spains world cup winning side is being investigated as part of the criminal case against luis rubiales. Vilda was sacked this month amid the fallout from the behaviour of Spanish Football Federation president rubiales at the World Cup Final last month. Rubiales kissed forward jenni hermoso, which she says was not consensual. Vilda will appear before Spains National court on the 10th of october. Cricket� s County Championship is drawing to a conclusion, as surrey and essex fight for the division one title. Surrey needed to score 300 in order to get the two bonus points needed to be crowned champions but they fell short Agaist Hampshire at the aegeas bowl, all out for 207. Essex could still catch surrey if they score 400 in their first innings, but theyve got a Long Way To Go currently on 125 4. Meanwhile, worcestershire have been promoted back to division one for a record seventh time. New zealands netballers have levelled the three game series with england at 1 1 after a comfortable 57 36 victory. An inexperienced roses team surprised many when they won the first game by a single point. New zealand had criticised the quality of the opposition and called it disrespectful, and they were far too good in the the second mach. England still have a chance to win the series in the decider on saturday in hamilton. And thats all the sport for now. Well, thank you. A 15 Year Old Girl has been stabbed to death on a bus in croydon, in south london. The girls school said it was deeply shocked by the senseless and tragic death of a much loved and valued friend and pupil. A 17 year old boy who is believed to have known the victim has been arrested. The police have released this statement. Lets go live to mark knobel and see what the police have been saying to him mark lobel. We what the police have been saying to him mark lobel. What the police have been saying to him mark lobel. We are 50 metres awa from him mark lobel. We are 50 metres away from a him mark lobel. We are 50 metres away from a white him mark lobel. We are 50 metres away from a white forensic him mark lobel. We are 50 metres away from a White Forensic Tent back i away from a White Forensic Tent back there, and about an hour and a half ago, the commissioner of the met police turned up. His car was on the other side of that number 60 bus, he walked into this Shopping Centre to have a meeting with the police teams on the ground about the latest here. He left about half an hour ago. People have started turning up in the last 10 20 minutes to lay flowers here. Weve been hearing from the police, the local mayor and eyewitnesses to the actual events this morning. What seems to have happened is around 8 30am on a very packed bus, there was an allegedly heated argument, people ran out of the bus and at that point, this 15 Year Old Girl was stabbed multiple times allegedly on the pavement. The bus driver and a passer by, an eyewitness said, tried to resuscitate her, it took the police two minutes to get here, Ambulance Services arrived but despite their efforts, they were unable to save the girls life. Within 75 minutes, police say, they had arrested a suspect which they revealed this afternoon was a 17 year old boy. They say they are not looking for anyone else, saying that they believe the suspect was known to the victim. Now they wont release the identity of the victim at the time, but its been released data has emerged that the victim was a ten minutes bus drive from her school, and all girls school, she was a year 11 student there. The school released a statement, saying, we are deeply shocked by this senseless and death of our much loved friend and pupil, and it will take some time for the old palace community to come to terms with this terrible news. Its a double blow for all the students there. The schools closure was announced a few days ago, it will close august 2025 so people have been coming to terms with that. The school also said they are sending sympathies to the girls family in this unbelievably stressful time. We heard from the police and here is what the chief superintendent, the local policing commander, had to say. This is every parents worst nightmare. And i know the officers who responded here this morning, along with our Emergency Service colleagues, are devastated at the victims death. This is an emotion i share, and i know people across croydon will be feeling the same. The victims family has been informed, and our thoughts are with them at what must be an incredibly difficult time. We carried out urgent inquiries to find the suspect and within 75 minutes of the incident happening, a 17 year old boy was arrested in new addington. He remains in custody and will be questioned by detectives. We remain in the early stages of our investigation. However, based on what we know so far. We believe we are not looking for anyone else in connection with this offence. From our initial inquiries, we believe the suspect may have known the victim however, we are not in a position to release the victims identity at this time. The local mayor also saying that the community is hurt right now. This borough in london is known for being present to them or stabbing democrat stabbings in london than any other borough, but it had gone through a little and murderers of teenagers, it was 22 months. In the words of one local mother, which really resonated with me, she said, i dont understand how it this time in the morning, a little girl has been stabbed. No one here seems understand why.

Theres been an investigation into this now, but it looks like it was a problem with the presenter, contributor, gallery, the whole station needs to look into this. But i think it also just highlights the fact that there is still a huge amount of misogyny levelled at women in the public eye, whether they are female politicians or, in this case, whether they are female journalists. Or, in this case, whether they are femalejournalists. We or, in this case, whether they are female journalists. We also see it with campaigners, often when women put their head above the parapet, but this often happens with women who dont put their head above the parapet.

We are trying to become a more equal society. Everything doesnt need to get dragged into a really nasty frame, derogatory frame about women. So many women have been commenting about this on social media everybody feels this acutely because no matter how old you are or where you are in life, what you do, you are always reduced by some men to this question.

I theres a warning that the number of children missing school in england is now at crisis levels, and it needs to be tackled with bigger, bolder national measures. Latest figures show at least a fifth of students are missing more than 10 of lessons, double the pre pandemic total. Live now to robin walker, mp for worcester, who chairs the education committee. Thanks so much for being here on the programme. Lets look at the numbers first, that is a significantjump, it must be really concerning . It is a significant it must be really concerning . It 3 a significantjump, and just as concerning lee, whilst this is a smaller number, the number of children missing more than half their sessions has nearly doubled to i. 5 , a their sessions has nearly doubled to i. 5 , a really concerning number. Concerning lee. These are children away from their peers and less likely to have good Mental Health, making progress in their education. So we are calling on the government to take more action. Ministers have been saying this is a priority for some time, but we want to see legislation, a register of the children not in schools, and we want to see action taken across the board to see action taken across the board to make sure that the children get the support they need to be able to succeed in school. You the support they need to be able to succeed in school. Succeed in school. You rolled throu. H succeed in school. You rolled through a succeed in school. You rolled through a number succeed in school. You rolled through a number of succeed in school. You rolled through a number of issues, | succeed in school. You rolled i through a number of issues, lets take a stage by stage. Do you understand fully the reasons weve seen the rise in the numbers . Weill. Seen the rise in the numbers . Well, there are a seen the rise in the numbers . Well, there are a myriad seen the rise in the numbers . Well, there are a myriad of seen the rise in the numbers . Well, there are a myriad of different i there are a myriad of different reasons. Some children are affected by Mental Health problems, others by anxiety, which i think one of the issues here is that before the pandemic, if children were anxious, the main focus of parents was to try and reassure them, get them into school. Because of the pandemic and what weve seen going on, i think parents are more liable to label anxiety as a Health Problem itself, and thats a reason to keep children off school. There is evidence that thats not the right thing to do with the child, the isolation makes things worse. Weve also seen a number of children missing school because the parents feel that their needs are being met, and thats why we say that there must be action taken on meeting the needs of children. Secondly, with the cost crisis, we realise there pressures on families, and we here with some evidence that children are missing school because of the costs of travel or uniform, or other issues of that nature affecting their family. So there really are a wide variety of reasons, but none of these are good reasons for children to be missing out on their education, and thats why we think its very important that action is taken. , to bea to be a multitude of solutions, this is such a complicated issue. You mentioned Mental Health, i know that some schools have been providing extra support, even support dogs have been brought into some schools. Is that part of the answer, are greater finds part of the answer . In terms of the variety of options here, where do you think we should be focusing upon . I here, where do you think we should be focusing upon . Be focusing upon . I think we must use all the be focusing upon . I think we must use all the tools be focusing upon .

Some of the people who gave us evidence suggested that fines could be counterproductive, and in some cases, i understand up, but i think they are necessary where parents are refusing to cooperate, in case where unfortunately, some parents believe its reasonable to take long holidays. Fines are a necessary part of the toolkit but they should always be used after looking at supportive measures and looking at what help a family or a child might need. One of the things the department has been piloting is something the select committee suggested a previous support, people working outside the School System to remove barriers and supporting those children most at risk of absence. Thats being piloted by the government in a few areas, we would like to see that rolled out much more widely.

Officials in glasgow have approved the uks first Consumption Room for illegal drugs. The facility is backed by the Scottish Government as a way to tackle the countrys longstanding drugs problem. The pilot scheme will be based at a Health Centre in the east end of glasgow. Trained Health Professionals will supervise people as they take their own drugs. The portuguese capital, lisbon, already has a similar facility. The city has been operating safe Consumption Rooms for more than two years. The country decriminalised personal drug use more than 20 years ago. 0ur Scotland Editor james cook has more. Lets speak to professor keith humphreys, a professor in psychiatry and Behavioural Sciences at stanford university. Good to see you on the programme, your take on this trial in scotland . Well, i must say its a political achievement and that the Scottish Government and westminster have been tussling over this for years, and theyve got it sorted, and i think everyone involved should become plummeted for that. In terms of what effect it will have on scottish drug problems, at best this will be pretty small. These programmes have some value but they engage in pretty small segments of the population, so i wouldnt expect Mortality Numbers to move as a result of this. That i wouldnt expect Mortality Numbers to move as a result of this. To move as a result of this. That is the ho e to move as a result of this. That is the hope because to move as a result of this. That is the hope because they to move as a result of this. That is the hope because they are to move as a result of this. That is the hope because they are terrible in scotland, in terms of 3 4 deaths a day, thats what they are battling. What does the evidence show . Because you look at this, in terms of cutting harms by using schemes like this, in a variety of Different Countries . The schemes like this, in a variety of Different Countries . Schemes like this, in a variety of Different Countries . The best news is that around Different Countries . The best news is that around the Different Countries . The best news is that around the world, Different Countries . The best news is that around the world, these i is that around the world, these sites have overseen millions of drug use episodes with only a handful of fatalities. And thats very good. Secondly, they are compassionate sites, they show compassion to people with the problem and thats good, there are people who will not access care if they dont feel they will be treated well, they can be brought into the care system. That is also good. The limits are that very few people will travel very far to use drugs in a Government Spot or facility, so almost all the people who use this will be people who live right there in the neighbourhood, may be up to a couple hundred metres away, and most people who use them dont use them very much. So their impact tends to be quite modest, relative to other things that might have done with the same amount of spending. I have done with the same amount of sendina. ~. , have done with the same amount of sendina. ~. ,. , � have done with the same amount of sendina. ~. ,. , � , spending.

Its interesting that the commissioner for Public Safety in oregon warned scotland to avoid the tragedy we are going through it is interesting whats being done they are in portland, oregon, and perhaps some of the warning signs from that. 0regon, which i know very well, has unfortunately been doing badly now in terms of its probably the worst drug problem in the us at the moment, also a terrible shortage of services. But you also have to ask, where do people go who need help . And if you dont have a good set of services, it doesnt even matter very much whether they are criminal or noncriminal, youll have a lot of people unfortunately dying from addiction and overdose.

Cathedrals are places for contemplation and worship amid grandeur and now Canterbury Cathedral is lending its walls to something new. The walls of the building are being used as a canvas for a spectacular light show as artists try to bring the renaissance to life. Simonjones reports. Let there be light. And let there be sound. The aim to take the audience on a physical and emotionaljourney transforming their Sense Of Place, and space. The theme, a journey into the renaissance world, a time of major change in the cultural, artistic, political and economic spheres, with Canterbury Cathedral acting as the canvas. As an artist, i don� t think you can get better. It� s a remarkable place to work. But actually, it� s not what we do with it, it� s the reaction that the audience have when they come here, that� s the bit that makes it special. An artwork is an artwork in the studio until you put it in front of an audience. And when you put in a building like this, it� s really those three parts, ourselves, the artwork and the building and the Sense Of Place here. It� s the second year that the cathedral has embraced light and sound like this on a huge scale. Last year� s show focused on space and science. Those behind the display say they� re a bit like the cathedral� s famous stained glass windows, telling stories with the help of colour and light. It� s quite a contrast to the more tranquil atmosphere of the daytime, but the Evening Shows are expected to bring a new audience to the cathedral. Luxmuralis attracts people who wouldn� t necessarily declare that they have an interest, either in the arts or in organised religion. Last year, when we did a similar event by the company, we had 12,000 people, and over 60 of them were coming to Canterbury Cathedral for the first time. It� s great, because it raises the profile both of the church and of the festival. So the invitation to the audience is to indulge their senses in a setting unlike any other. Simon jones, bbc news. What a wonderful live show light show. That� s it from us, i� ll leave you footage with storm ally is hitting greece, footage from that. You can hear the thunder and see the amount of rain. Thanks for watching. Good evening. Good afternoon. This was the calm before the storm because agnes is well and truly bearing down across the United Kingdom and ireland. The Signature Swirl of cloud around that deepened area of low pressure, which is not only bringing heavy rain, but gale force, if not severe gale force winds, as it tracks its way north and east. This is where we expect the potentially destructive winds with gusts up to 50mph inland enough to bring down some power lines and the odd tree. In extremities, we could see gusts of 70 75mph over coastal areas and the hills. That, combined with the heavy rain, particularly for scotland and northern ireland, giving some disruption and hazardous conditions. Away from southern and eastern areas it is a tale of two seasons today. It will feel quite summer like i should imagine, and warm in the south and east, but wetter weather further north and west, with heavy showers across western parts of england, and wales. 22 23 celsius in the sunshine. Staying largely fine and dry in 0rkney and shetland, but then this evening the rain and wind picks up across scotland. So a warm or milder night than last night with so much wind and cloud around. And still quite a bit of cloud tomorrow morning but it should lift and clear, and we will see some sunshine materialising. Quite a lot of dry weather for central and eastern parts but another Weather Front is moving in from the west. Giving some sunshine, although not as warm as today, we will still reach the high teens, and possibly 20 across the southeast. Still feeling pleasant. But then the Weather Fronts converge during the evening and overnight with heavy, thundery showers and brisk winds around those showers across southern areas. By friday morning it finally clears away, leaving sunny spells and showers in scotland and northern ireland, but a good deal of dry and bright weather on friday to end the working week. As we move into the weekend, more wet weather on the way. It is all about storm agnes at the moment. More detail on the website, including the weather warnings, but do take care with those gales and heavy rain. At 6pm. The largest untapped oilfield in the uk gets the go ahead. Rosebank in the north sea could hold around 300 Million Barrels of oil. It� ll provide hundreds ofjobs, but environmental campaigners are furious, calling it a reckless decision. A 15 Year Old Girl has been stabbed to death on her way to school in south london a teenage boy is arrested on suspicion of murder. Weighing up the cost of lockdown we� ll be reporting on the long term impact on children in school.
