And matt has your weekend weather. The autumn equinox today and it feels like it, cold and foggy for some and while most start the day with sunshine, a different look outside for the journey home. Details on that and your weekend forecast coming up. Good morning. First, our main story. Theresa may will deliver a major speech on brexit in florence later today. The Prime Minister will argue that both the uk and the eu have a shared responsibility to make the process work smoothly. She is expected to say explicitly for the first time that the uk will seek a transition deal, which could last for up to two years after we leave the eu. Its thought the uk could pay up to £18 billion to brussels in return for continued access to the Single Market during that time. But the Prime Minister is also expected to say that after brexit has happened the uk will seek its own bespoke trade deal with the rest of the eu. Our Political Correspondent ben wright is at westminster this morning. Ben, this is not a usual day by any means, is it . All eyes on italy and florence, a major occasion and possibly a bit marker in the brexit negotiations . Thats right, charlie. The Prime Minister chose not to go to brussels where negotiations are happening but florence, tuscany, to make a speech that is clearly a direct appeal to eu leaders rather than the negotiators around the table. Shell be telling European Union leaders that its in their mutual interests to push these talks forward and come up with a constructive final deal with the uk, to make brexit work in the interests of the eu and the uk. Look, this speech is clearly i think a symptom of the fact that the talks are stuck now, theres frustration both here and in brussels about the pace theyre going. Brussels want westminster to be more explicit about the amount of money were prepared to pay as part of the divorce settlement, protecting the rights of eu workers here after brexit, the uk frustrated talks are not getting onto the question of the future trade relationship so she will use this moment to get momentum into the talks and crucially, as you said, sketch out for the first time what sort of transitional deal the uk would like. When we talk about that were talking about a bridging period of about two years after weve left the eu in march, 2019, three to about 2020 2021 and business are asking the government strongly now for some certainty and guarantees around that, but, and theresa may will say this in hurst beach, that will require money, probably about 20 billion euros over two years her speech. A big speech and we might learn quite a bit today about the Prime Ministers thinking about how that transitional period will work. For the moment, thanks very much. One of britains most Senior Police officers has warned that the huge Counter Terrorism effort is placing a strain on other areas of policing that is not sustainable. Sarah thornton, the head of the National Police Chiefs Council, argues that more funding is needed to maintain day to day policing. Heres our Home Affairs Correspondent, danny shaw. Five terror attacks in britain in six months. Security experts say its a sign of a shift in the threat of terrorism which could take 30 years to eliminate. It poses a big challenge for the police service. Now one of brtains most Senior Officers has spoken out about the need extra funding. Writing on the National Police Chiefs Council website, Sara Thornton says the counterterrorism policing budget is being cut by 7. 2 in the next three years. Miss thornton says thats a real concern giving the alarming nature and volume of the threat. She says the pressure this creates is not sustainable because there are fewer resources overall, particularly in neighbourhood policing. One of the things that we absolutely value is our part in the fight against terrorism is neighbourhood Police Officers, out there in neighbourhood building relationships, talking to the public and picking up bits of information and bits of intelligence. If we do not have that footprint, and we are very worried that that has reduced over the last few years, then we will not pick up information. But just as importantly we wont have that really important relationship with the public. The home office says it is sensitive to the pressures on Police Forces and is in discussion with them about their problems. But there are also fresh concerns about whether there are enough firearms officers. A new survey is expected to show growing support among the police for more of them to be trained to use weapons. Danny shaw, bbc news. The north Korean Leader, kim jong un, has described donald trump as mentally deranged in response to the comments the us president made during his speech to the United Nations on tuesday. Joining us now from seoul is our correspondent, danny savage. Danny, this war of words seems to be escalating to i dont know what. Kim jong un, is he planning to be more explicit with his use of missiles . Well, its interesting. The words from kim jong un are well, its interesting. The words from kimjong un are in response well, its interesting. The words from kim jong un are in response to what donald trump said a couple of days ago at the United Nations. Its taken this time to get the response from the North Koreans. What their leader says is that it was unprecedented, rude nonsense from donald trump. He says he is now thinking hard about a response to that. Now, whats interesting is that. Now, whats interesting is that the north Korean Foreign minister in new york has hinted at what that response could be and hes suggested when he was stopped by journalists in new york in the last few hours that north korea may be prepared to detonate a nuclear bomb, and odd letter h bomb, which theyve already tested underground in north korea, but also perhaps to detonate one in the Pacific Ocean somewhere an h bomb. That would be an enormous escalation in this growing crisis because that is alluding to detonating a bomb outside the countrys borders somewhere in the Pacific Ocean sending it by missile one would presume to detonate a nuclear bomb, that would ramp up everything. Meanwhile youve got the two main men in this crisis trading insults with each other, kim jong un responding to what donald trump said today, and so it goes on. Wejust hope there is still diplomatic movement is going on behind the scenes, which we think is happening, to try to settle this without any more missiles or bombs going off. Indeed, thank very much, danny. The mexican president says people may still be buried alive in the ruins of ten buildings in mexico city after tuesdays devastating earthquake.

As you can see there are a lot of people and a lot of machinery as well working at the rubble. A lot of it is manual work, people passing bits of the rubble hand to hand to remove it very carefully because its a precarious operation. International assistance has also arrived here. The Israeli Government has sent help and theyre actually involved in this particular rescue operation. While people wait, there are doctors on standby as well ready to treat anyone who is rescued and who comes out. Periodically this place falls silent. People put their hands up and they are told to be silent while rescuers try to call out to people who they believe are trapped in the rubble. Its not just officials who are helping with the rescue efforts here, many of these people are volunteers giving up their own time and pitching in to try and rescue as many people as they can. The atmosphere here is very intense, its one of anticipation. People are still hopeful that many more people will be found in the rubble alive.

Almost 70 of women who are on a powerful epilepsy drug have not received new safety warnings about the dangers of taking it during pregnancy, according to a new survey given exclusively to the bbc.

They come too late for the thousands of young people like thomas harmed by the drug. The uk medicines watchdog said the results of the survey were important in helping it understand the effectiveness of the measures taken to date. It also said it was important women didnt stop taking valproate without first discussing it with their doctor. Sophie hutchinson, bbc news.

The International Human rights lawyer amal clooney, who has campaigned to raise awareness of the genocide of the yazidis, was at the un in new york. She spoke to our chief International Correspondent lyse doucet. Amal clooney, how big a step forward is this in legal terms . Its a huge step, lyse, its really a milestone for the victims of isis, like nadia.
