Certainly at yodel, it will be our biggest ever year, there will be abouti million parcels extra in our busiest week compared to last year. An industry determined to get all our deliveries on the road, but its also warning us to shop early. We think that the volumes are going to be really very excessive this year online, so while that in itself isnt a problem, getting too much of it too close to christmas is going to be a bit of a problem. So, if you could spread it out a bit more, do quite a lot of it in november, maybe do a bit now, then that would help avoid too much too close to christmas. Things are changing fast with this pandemic will we actually be buying loads of presents if we cant celebrate as normal . And as job losses start to mount,

Emma simpson, bbc news. Time for a look at the weather. Heres tomasz schafernaker. Very chilly and the chilly weather is here to stay throughout the weekend. But not going to be too bad. We might catch fleeting rain here and there. But nothing compared to what we have right now along the north sea coast. There is some awful weather, really quite stormy conditions anywhere from the yorkshire coast all the way down towards east anglia. A nasty area of low pressure has put itself in the southern north sea and is generating vicious gusts of wind. That is very close to grimsby, 67 mph in the last hour or two and even inland whens approaching a0 to 50 mph across eastern parts of the uk. 0n approaching a0 to 50 mph across eastern parts of the uk. On top of that, we have heavy rain which is also fleeting, carried on that very strong wind arrangement macro the north sea. But this is more local because many of us, it is a
com pletely because many of us, it is a completely different story with lengthy sunny spells, the odd shower with lighter winds, it doesnt feel too bad. From the tip of cornwall all the way into the western isles. You can see the nasty weather keeps clipping and clipping the far east of the country. Towards the west, the winds will be light and the skies are clearing and it will be a really nippy start to saturday. They degrees in central london. Tomorrow, we still have the remnants of that gale, the Stormy Weather along the north sea coast. Bringing showers to parts of east anglia and lincolnshire. But again, the best of the weather is further west and north. Northern ireland, scotland, fabulous conditions on the way. And on sunday, still in between weather systems. That is the jet stream. With the weather fronts here and more unsettled weather across southern parts of europe. We are in between and that does mean these weather fronts will be either side of the british isles. The best of the weather sandwiched in across
cornwall, devon, wales, the north west of england, Northern Ireland and western scotland. And a chilly, temperatures recovering to around 17 degrees, so with sunshine and later winds, it will be one of the best places. Early next week, we lose over all that cool northerly wind. We will replace it, Mother Nature will replace it with these milder weste rli es. Will replace it with these milder westerlies. But this time of year when we get the milder westerlies, that often means clouds increase, the wind and the rain across much of the wind and the rain across much of the country. You can see how those temperatures are recovering as we go to the second half of the weekend into next week with a hint of something more unsettled. A reminder of our top story. A Police Officer is shot dead at a Custody Centre in south london by a man who was being detained. Tributes have been paid.

She said her heartfelt condolences went to his family, friends and colleagues. Along serving officer with the police who lost his life in our

Ive spoken to our office ins partner together with other collea g u es partner together with other colleagues and we are, of course, giving her the best support we can. My giving her the best support we can. My heartfelt condolences go to her, to theirfamily, my heartfelt condolences go to her, to their family, to my heartfelt condolences go to her, to theirfamily, to his colleagues and close friends. Im thinking also of everyone who is involved in and those affected by this terrible event. We are all deeply shocked and very sad. The metropolitan police as a family. Policing is a family, in london and across the united kingdom. Today, we police are all
mourning a great loss. I would like to thank our officers and the staff together with colleagues from the London Ambulance service, the london airambulance and all our London Ambulance service, the London Air Ambulance and all our medical and hospital colleagues who i know did everything they could to save his life. A Murder Investigation is under way and officers are working at several crime scenes to secure evidence and to establish facts of what happened. We are working closely with the independent 0ffice for police conduct. Early indications are that the suspect shot himself. This has not yet, of
course, been established as a fact. The man i can tell you remains in a Critical Condition in hospital. I do understand that there is considerable interest in the identity of my colleague but i cannot tell you yet his name, as we have not yet been able to inform all of his close family. Investigations will establish the full facts of what has happened and i would ask you, as far as is possible, to show restraint in speculation at this time. This terrible incident underlined, again, how Police Officers face danger every single
day, 2a 7,365 in their work in protecting our public. Thank you all for your thoughts and i will issue more information when i can later today. Cressida dick speaking a few moments ago. Ive got some news in from Public Health england. The latest r number is now at 1. 2 and thats up again so another indication that coronavirus cases arising in the uk. Lets also return to the last news that wales has
announced new virus restrictions in cardiff, swansea and other places. As cases are rising rapidly, we decided to introduce coronavirus restrictions locally. These will happen in swansea, cardiff and llanelli. These measures reflect the seriousness of this position and we ask people to reflect on their own conduct and avoid unnecessary contact. Conduct and avoid unnecessary co nta ct. We conduct and avoid unnecessary contact. We will closely monitor the situation, in glamorgan and review whether these areas also need to
come under the local restriction regime at the same time as swansea and cardiff. These Restrictions Mean that when in force, People Living in these areas will not be able to enter or leave the area without a reasonable excuse. They will not be able to meet indoors with anyone they do not live with, for the time being. Extended households, sometimes called bubbles will be suspended for the time being. All licensed premises will have to stop serving alcohol from ten in line with national restrictions, and eve ryo ne with national restrictions, and everyone must work from where possible. Up until now, we have placed whole local Authority Areas under restrictions but in the case of llanelli, we are acting on a more localised basis for the first time because the spread of coronavirus is concentrated on the town itself so we will use the ward boundary
defined the limit of restriction so people know what rules to follow. Barry port will not be included. There will be a postcode checker on our websites about restrictions. People will be living in areas under locally restrictions to prevent further spread of coronavirus and protect their health. There are a series of rules applying across wales to those living in wales which apply to licence primitives, meeting indoors and wearing face covering. Licensed premises. We are seeing this happen in new newport and caerphilly, numbers are dropping. Lets turn now to the new measures announced yesterday by the chancellor to protect the economy. Earlier my colleague Annita Mcveigh put your questions about thejob support scheme to two experts in a special edition of your questions answered. Youve been sending in your questions aboutjobs youve been sending in your questions about jobs and youve been sending in your questions aboutjobs and the economy to ask. Thank you for those. Here to a nswer to ask. Thank you for those. Here to answer your questions are the chief economist from the institution of directors, and employment lawyer. Will have a question for you from laura, will people from the scheme be required to do unpaid work for their community to make up the hours they are being paid for by not working . I may have missed something but didnt hear anything about that
yesterday. No. There is no requirement that people to make up time in that way. What we did see with the retention scheme was lots of people volunteering so i think wed be hopeful that people will volunteer to work within their communities. Maybe theyve already been doing and will continue to do so. Been doing and will continue to do so. If returned to work isnt for ours, absolutely. Being in the event sector, we have no income generating work in the future however, there stop Maintenance Work to be done to potential future bookings. Stop Maintenance Work to be done to potentialfuture bookings. Does this count as viable work with mike thats an interesting question and i have a lot of people tweeting about this, worried about what the future holds for them. Viable is a bit of an ambiguous term and were hoping that the guidance will help clarify this but its largely based on the capacity of the business itself to
retain and to pay the additional amount to keep that work on, so, in this situation, it seems like this wouldnt be deemed would be deemed as viable work but, as ive said, hopefully, well get clarification on what viable means. Its a pretty subjective term and lots of businesses may say, well, yes, i would have to put my business on ice but beyond that, if we are out of the worst of this pandemic, the business would then instantly become viable again so its an interesting word. Much discussion about to go on, as you say. Another question, what should i do if my employer is still requiring to work from my office when we could be working from home . The first thing i would do is try to understand why
the employer thinks its important to work from the office. However informal conversation with someone in management to understand the employers perspective and then, doesnt work i would speak to the employers grievance process. Is there something that can be done to demonstrate for example that a workplace is coronavirus secure . Trying to understand where the employer is coming from and whether theyre providing coronavirus secure workplace is important. They can require employees to go in if its not effective for them to work from home. There could be concerns about whether someone or how someone can travel in, its one thing to say to driving in your own space, your own car but another to go on Public Transport which may raise lock concern that some people. What i
would say would be, i was on the trains last week and the trains were brilliantly managed but others have had different experience. Employers can factor this in. Whether employees can walk, cycle or whether they are being forced onto Public Transport and its something you would weigh up in the balance whether you are going to ask people to come in. 0k. Interesting. Question from David Fleming in north lanarkshire. He says im a self employed taxi driver in scotland. How this worked for me . Self employed taxi driver in scotland. How this worked for me7m addition to the job support scheme which is an extension of the job scheme, there is now extension for the self employed but it comes in at a lower rate which is 20 of your profits up to a cap, so this does tend to help most self employed people but a lot will miss out,
unfortunately. We dont know if david set up as a limited company, but if hes not . If he isnt, then he should be able to apply for self employment grant and get 20 of his average profits. In addition, there was an announcement around extending your tax payments. We know some self employed people who do Self Assessment tax, payments will be able to be extended for a longer period of Time Next Year rather than having to clump all of that payment into early next year. Some good pointers the david to follow up on. Fill in whether the said how does this affect us in the arts and Entertainment Industries . I work for a theatre and there are no shows planned no work to go back to. It looks like we are overlooked yet again. This is one of the sectors
that feels like they were left out last time and says, we are still being left out. Yes. The difficulty with this game for some employers is that where there is no work to be done, you are not covered by this new scheme because employees have to be working a third of their hours and therefore, they will be lots of businesses which will be out of the scope of this unfortunately. Its a really, really difficult one. Ifeel for those in this position. Another question from sarah, following on from the points raised by feel and it comes back to this word viable. Could you please explain asked sarah, what viable and a non viable job is . Again, its going to come down to the employer and the business and whether they think its viable to be retaining that work and then paying the additional amount thatis then paying the additional amount that is required under the job support scheme. Of course, it
difficult for businesses to decide whether they viable because they have little clarity with the path of the pandemic and how those restrictions will play out. One thing that could help businesses to determine whether things are more viable for them are the range of other measures announced yesterday. For example, there were more announcements around the debt that a business might have taken out over the course of the pandemic. So, those might help make things more viable, but at this stage, is remains quite an ambiguous term. That kind of assistant, we just dont know that some businesses it may make a difference. As i mentioned earlier, they may be able to put things on ice for however many months and hopefully re emerge afterwards. 0ther many months and hopefully re emerge afterwards. Other people wont be able to sustain that. Theyll have to look for other work or go on benefits. Yes. As weve heard, its
affecting different industries. Weve heard from the entertainment sector, the retail and hospitality sector, the retail and hospitality sector which are likely to be impacted a lot more by the new restrictions over the coming six months. So, this may not cover them well enough in the hope would be that, i know the disappointment yesterday is that there wasnt specific support announced and hopefully this is something the government will look to in the coming months. Question from mayo houston. If my hours are reduced from 30 to 20 during the time i have to shield, do my employees know how to shield, do my employees know how to reinstate the 30 hours. Employer. It depends on the situation. If it was presented as a temporary reduction, then hopefully employers put a time limit on that and in which case they would have to
t and in which case they would have to opt that 230. The difficulty here is this vague notion of, we will notify you when its appropriate increases hours and thats why there may be some uncertainty. Employers need to be mindful when dealing with employees with shielding is they are liable to be covered by the equalities act so you must be careful not to inflict any detriment onto people who are shielding. I think communication and transparency here 0k. Time forjust one more. This is asking, nothing has said for those like me who are contractors via limited companies. Leaves receive little support so far. Whats next . What advice for them . This has been a difficult one since the pandemic began because theres
been very little support for individuals who might remunerate themselves more through their limited company as to through their paye limited company as to through their pay e syste m. Limited company as to through their paye system. The government response ifar has been paye system. The government response i far has been the paye system. The government response ifar has been the individuals in this situation can use the job support scheme on the Job Retention scheme to get payments or grants for the amount of salary they pay themselves. Unfortunately, there wont be any coverage them on dividends and this is a big concern to them. A lot of our members will be hoping to push the treasury more on this in the coming months.
