He did not get they had hoped. He did not get the commitments he had asked for, the commitments he had asked for. Not the commitments he had asked for, notjust from the commitments he had asked for, not just from the the commitments he had asked for, notjust from the us but from for, notjust from the us but from other countries as well. And from other countries as well. And then from other countries as well. And then youve not only had what and then youve not only had what President Trump has said, but its what President Trump has said, but its also what his Running Mate but its also what his Running Mate jd but its also what his Running Mate Jd Vance has said, recent comments Mate Jd vance has said, recent comments say that the us and we does comments say that the us and we does not comments say that the us and we does not have the ability to be fighting does not have the ability to be fighting or supporting the Fight Fighting or supporting the fight in both the Middle East and in fight in both the Middle East and in ukraine and he did say that and in ukraine and he did say that europe is going to have to start that europe is going to have to start doing more of its own. So all of start doing more of its own. So all of this start doing more of its own. So all of this is start doing more of its own.

Proposals to change the law to give terminally ill people the choice to end their lives will be introduced to British Parliament for the first time in nearly a decade. The last time an assisted Dying Bill was brought before mps, it was heavily defeated, but since then, countries including canada, australia and New Zealand have legalised it. And there have been growing calls for change here. The labour mp Kim Leadbeater is behind the bill. So over the last few weeks, ive spoken to colleagues of all political persuasions, and there is definitely an appetite to have this debate now. And i do think the mood has changed. I think the mood has changed publicly, and i think it probably has changed within parliament. So i have spoken to quite a lot of the new intake of mps, and they think the time is right to have this debate. They are nervous in some respects, as am i, because its such an important issue and its such an emotive issue, but i think the consensus is that the time is right to have that debate and discussion. And i really hope that for my part, i can facilitate that in what is a respectful and compassionate way. Campaigners argue changing the law would be more humane. Anil� s father ian had multiple sclerosis, and the day before his 60th birthday he took his own life. I think that the current law as it stands is dangerous and it leads people to take decisions that are lonely, isolating and incredibly risky, just like my father. And really what the law should do is protect people. But others say better end of Life Care should be the priority. Thats what we should be putting all our focus on, i and if you change the law in this direction, well do| less of that and well. Simply be encouraging people down this route towards an artificial death. So back to our panel, Anna And Joel so back to our panel, Anna And Joel. Is it right that mps should have a free vote on this . ~ , this . Well, this is something that Keir Starmer this . Well, this is something that Keir Starmer in this . Well, this is something that Keir Starmer in those i that Keir Starmer in those around them and make clear is going to happen. Number ten are explicit in the fact that they want a free vote. Keir starmer� s is personally placed to have a free vote and the conversation is gradually shifting. Ifind it very interesting that more more people will tell you that they expect this to be legalised in some form in the uk in our lifetime, whether or not its this vote or it sets the groundwork for a future vote. But i think none of this is surprising. The government whips have been trying to encourage an mp, one of the mps who had a private ballot scheduled, to put this forward. Kim leadbeater is quite a smart choice as a Sister Ofjo Cox and an empty herself. If its drafted it right, i think it will almost certainly pass the House Of Commons dont make you think it would get through, do you . It will get through the House Of Commons unless it is written in a way that is somehow very controversial, but i think if its what we are expecting people expected get through the commons but expected to really struggle in the House Of Lords. And my sources and government have said to me that all of it rests on how its drafted, and if it leaves in the room for amendments, thats when it will almost certainly collapse in the House Of Lords. So if it starts getting admitted in the House Of Commons already, then it will get torn apart. It will get torn apart. Then the house it will get torn apart. Then the house of it will get torn apart. Then the House Of Lords it will get torn apart. Then the House Of Lords will. It will get torn apart. Then the House Of Lords will be | it will get torn apart. Then the House Of Lords will be able to overrule what the House Of Commons would say on this . Because it was not a manifesto commitment, technically yes, and there will be opposition to it in the House Of Lords. There are obviously proponents of it, too. Lord falconer had put forward his own bill, but then he pulled it because he essentially wanted it to start and thought it be more proper if it came from the House Of Commons originally. So there is a lot of support for in the House Of Lords as well, but there is also significant opposition. And the expectation is that parliament, the mps will vote it through and will allow it through, but in the House Of Lords are probably at this current instance will struggle. This current instance will struggle this current instance will stru ule. , � , struggle. Interesting. Lets talk to joel struggle. Interesting. Lets talk to joel about struggle. Interesting. Lets talk to joel about what struggle. Interesting. Lets talk to joel about what are | struggle. Interesting. Lets i talk to joel about what are the views there among americans about assisted dying, Would You Say . I about assisted dying, Would You Sa . , about assisted dying, Would You Sa . , , say . I mean, it really is diverse say . I mean, it really is diverse. And say . I mean, it really is diverse. And in say . I mean, it really is diverse. And in our say . I mean, it really is. Diverse. And in our federal diverse. And in ourfederal system, diverse. And in ourfederal system, of course the states have system, of course the states have a system, of course the states have a dominant role in deciding this, and so there are 11 deciding this, and so there are it states deciding this, and so there are 11 states where it is legal. 39 where 11 states where it is legal. 39 where it 11 states where it is legal. 39 where it is not. There is not going where it is not. There is not going to where it is not. There is not going to be a chance for getting going to be a chance for getting through the federal level getting through the federal level in any way, but i do think level in any way, but i do think that the american attitudes have been changed over attitudes have been changed over time, attitudes have been changed overtime, overthe attitudes have been changed over time, over the years to be supportive over time, over the years to be supportive of assisted suicide. But again supportive of assisted suicide. But again getting it through legislatures at the State Level is a process, and that minority of the is a process, and that minority of the states do allow for at this of the states do allow for at this stage. Of the states do allow for at this stage this stage. Interesting perspective. This stage. Interesting perspective. All this stage. Interesting perspective. All right, | this stage. Interesting perspective. All right, thank you so much once again it back with you in a few minutes. Around the world and across the uk, this is bbc news. Melania trump says she strongly supports the right to have an abortion. Thats according to the guardian newspaper, which has seen a copy of herforthcoming memoir. Her husband, Donald Trump, deliberately chose Supreme Courtjudges who were anti abortion, and they played a significant part in ending the constitutional protection for a womans right to choose to end a pregnancy in the us.

Just bringing over to you first of all. Just bringing the over to you first of all. Just bringing the Shock Over to you first of all. Just bringing the Shock Waves that the interview that should have happened but is not not going to happen with Borisjohnson And Bbc is making in the political and Media Class here. So just to update everyone, Laura Kuenssberg was due to interview with the former Prime Minister on the back of his new memoir but accidentally sent him her Prep Notes for the Interview And Yesterday and on twitter that this had happened and that she was putting her hands up and say therefore i cannot possibly make it go ahead. I think most journalists, Theirfirst Reaction was thank god i did not do that, because i think everyone at some point has sent an E Mail to everyone at some point has sent an E Mailto the everyone at some point has sent an E Mail to the wrong person or send a document to the wrong person. But personally i like to draft my Interview Notes on pen and paper, and im not going to continue doing that. There were a few people suggesting maybe she could have gotten somebody else to interview him, but that thing where you send the E Mail to the wrong person, we have all done it. Done it. Email, text, whatsapp. Done it. Email, text, whatsapp. I done it. Email, text, whatsapp, i had done it. Email, text, | whatsapp, i had many done it. Email, text, whatsapp, i had many stories that will keep you up at night. But good on Laura Kuenssberg for coming up front and say she had done that and i suppose you could have rushed to under the carpet but she was out there and telling everybody what happened. And telling everybody what happened and telling everybody what ha ened. � happened. Yeah, and i dont think she happened. Yeah, and i dont think she really happened. Yeah, and i dont think she really couldve happened. Yeah, and i dont. Think she really couldve been replaced by Someone Else because its obviously her show. So i think he is going to be doing itv and other broadcasters, so im sure Boris Johnson will himself be asked about it and im sure he will have many an opinion. Indeed. Joel, have many an opinion. Indeed. Joel. What have many an opinion. Indeed. Joel. What if have many an opinion. Indeed. Joel, what if you have many an opinion. Indeed. Joel, what if you got have many an opinion. Indeed.

Its a busy night of european football, and a Big Night for manchester united, who need a victory to relieve some of the pressure on their manager erik ten hag. United are playing porto in portugal in the europa league. Having lost 3 0 at home to tottenham last weekend, they looked to have bounced back and went 2 0 ahead, but squandered the lead. Porto recovering to go 3 2 up with two goals from samu 0morodion. We are into added time there. United had a really good shot saved but are down to ten men and giving everything they can. Elsewhere, rangers are slumping to defeat to the french Side Lyon at ibrox. The former arsenal forward Alexandre Lacazette scored twice, including this wonder strike. They lead 4 1 in time added on. And just to tell you, united have just equalised 3 3 in portugal with united against porto. In one of the earlier kick offs, a youthful tottenham made it two wins from two in europe. Substitute brennanjohnson scored his fifth goal in five successive games to help them beat the hungarian Side Ferencvaros 2 1 away.

Leading 1 0 at half time, The Blues Cut Loose after the break through goals from pedro neto, Christopher Nkunku and kieran dewsbury hall, who scored his first goal for the club since making the move from Leicester City in the summer. But theres no Fairy Tale yet for welsh champions the new saints, who are in the Conference League Group phase for the first time. Theyre losing in italy to Serie A side fiorentina. Yacil adli with the first goal, with fiorentina leading 2 0. All of the matches coming to a close. And a similarly historic night ended in disappointment for larne. Making their European Debut and the first Northern Irish side to play in a Uefa Competition proper, they were soundly beaten by the norwegian Club Molde 3 0, as well as having a player sent off late on. Managerless hearts ended their dreadful run of form by fighting back to beat Dinamo Minsk 2 1 thanks to Yan Dhandas Goal in added time.

Lee carlsey named his latest England Squad ahead of this months Nations League matches against greece and finland, and Dominic Solanke was the headline. Its the tottenham striker� s First Call up since his one and only Cap Back in 2017, when he was a substitute against brazil. England interim Manager Carsley has also recalled carsley has also recalled kyle walker, Phil Foden and jude bellingham. With the squad that weve got, weve got so many talented players. Always looking at finding the right balance, you know, who complements who in terms of the way that we play. I try not to get too caught up in positions and too positional. Its more the attributes and the way we can potentially attack the opposition. Well, northern Ireland Manager Michael Oneill has also named his squad for their Nations League c matches. Strikerjamie reid has been recalled to the squad for the double header against belarus and bulgaria. 0neill� s side had a mixed start to their campaign, with a win and a loss in september. This competition is good because it provides probably a level of opposition which, you know, if youre going to qualify for a major tournament, these are games that over a period of time youll have to win. So were disappointed to lose a game in bulgaria. We played well here at home, and i thought for long periods in bulgaria, our performance was decent. We lose a game off of an individual error, and unfortunately the players learn at this level that the finest margins decide games. Finally some cricket, and scotlands womens first ever t20 World Cup Match has ended in defeat. Having lost the toss and been asked to field, Scotland Restricted Bangladesh to 119 7 as Saskia Horley took three wickets forjust 13 runs.

Fatima then took the key wicket of Chamari Athapaththu for just six. From that point, Sri Lanka never recovered, and pakistan went on to win by 31 runs. It is still 3 3 between Man United and porto. And thats all the sport for now. Good evening. Well, after a chilly start today, we all got the long awaited Sunshine Weve been craving after such a wet september. This was staffordshire a little earlier on, but it was a fairly familiar story right across the country all thanks to High Pressure, which is slowly starting to drift its way steadily eastwards. And it will allow the door to open to this Weather Front into the northwest, bringing some showery outbreaks of rain. It will prevent temperatures from falling too far, but elsewhere, under those clear skies, expect the temperatures to fall away once again. Low single figures in sheltered rural areas of england and wales. A touch of frost and patchy fog is likely first thing in the morning. But as we go through the day, well continue to see this North South Divide across england and wales. After that sunny start, well have fair Weather Cloud developing, but temperatures are still likely to peak between 15 17 celsius. Maybe cloudy skies and a few scattered showers into the isle of man, more overcast and damp across northern ireland, with showery outbreaks of rain into western scotland. Sheltered eastern areas should stay driest for longest. Highs here of 13 14 celsius. So, as we move out of friday into the start of the weekend, the High Pressure continues to lose its grip and allows Anotherfront To Push in this one will bring some more heavy and persistent rain with it. So, once again, well see double digits to greet us first thing on saturday. But still a chilly start for england and wales thats where well have the best of the sunshine throughout the day on saturday. Some of this rain could turn quite heavy, though, on saturday, through northern ireland and into scotland, gradually pushing its way steadily northwards and eastwards. The Wind Direction Swinging around to a Southerly It might feel a degree or so warmer, despite the temperatures suggesting a similar story, 14 17 celsius. But Saturday Night is the night where that front will continue to push its way quite widely across the country, and it will bring a spell of wet weather as it does so. So, wet and windy through the early hours of Sunday Morning that trails away, and you can see how itll stay pretty unsettled with plenty of showers developing. And thatjust opens the floodgates for yet more unsettled weather as we move through the week ahead, particularly from wednesday onwards. Thats it, take care.
