Provision. At the end of the day it was included so that only religious institutions could effectively veto on that decision to supply contraceptives free of charge to women who wanted them. Now, under donald trump, its being extended to include all employers. So if they decide for their own religious or moral reasons that they do not want to supply the women that they employ, essentially the funds through their health funds to pay for contraceptives, they will have the right to do that. How divisive a political issue is this . Its a hugely divisive legal issue. It always has been. Of course, right now, conservatives are celebrating this. Many of those conservatives are Donald Trumps base. This is something he promised to do when he was campaigning for office, for the presidency last year. He has kept true to his promise. For all that people had expected this to happen at some point, there will be an argument, a campaign and, yes, legal action to try to get this decision overturned. At least one organisation, the American Civil Liberties union,. Has already said it has begun legal proceedings. Planned parenthood has spoken out against this and there is a chance it could go all the way to the supreme court. We spoke about how many women are thought to have benefited from this provision. In effect, however, how Many Employers really, how many large employers will take this away from their employees . Well, that is a big question. The government today, the official announcing this, said that he did not think Many Employers would withhold the sort of insurance for women who wanted it. But lets see what happens. Other people express concern that some employers may use this veto to save money and to say that they are doing it because of their moral or religious belief but in fact it would simply be a ploy to save money by not spending it on healthcare for women that are employed in a particular company. Well have to see how this pans out. There are certainly a lot of concern from womens organisations that this is an attack on the Civil Liberties of women. Lets take a look at some of the other stories making the news. The first funerals have taken place in brazil of children killed on thursday by a Security Guard who set fire to a Childcare Centre in the state of minas gerais. Seven children, most of them aged four, and a teacher have now died. The man threw ethanol over the children and himself before starting the fire. He later died in hospital. Vigils have been held in las vegas for the victims of the deadliest mass shooting in recent us history. Police say theyve followed up more than a thousand leads but still dont know the motive for the attack that left 58 people dead and hundreds injured. Stephen paddock opened fire from his hotel room on the crowd below before turning the gun on himself.

Theresa may has said she has the full support of her cabinet after a former Party Chairman said there should be a leadership contest. The Prime Minister said the country needed calm leadership and declared thats what im providing. But grant shapps claims that around 30 tory mps back his call for a leadership election, adding there are cabinet ministers who feel the same way. 0ur deputy Political Editor john pienaar reports. If only theresa mays bodyguard could see off the political plots, but thats up to her friends and to her, away from westminster today, and doing her best to look cool, still in charge, getting on with business. What i think is necessary for the country now, what the country needs, is calm leadership. Thats exactly what im providing, and im providing that with the full support of my cabinet. Thank you. Maybe, but not all ex cabinet colleagues from happier times, like the former Party Chairman, whos been outed as a plotter and admits stirring mutiny, gathering names of other tory mps who want the Prime Minister gone, and gone quickly. Well, actually, just over a period of time, since the general election that went so badly wrong, there are quite a lot of colleagues who feel we might now be better served by having a leadership election sooner rather than later. And this was really to try to gather those people together in order to be able to say that to her. Mr shapps claims some 30 mps support a plan to get mrs may out and force a leadership contest, including five former ministers. Under tory rules, it takes 48 mps to force a vote of no confidence. If she loses that vote, she must resign. Allies say rebels dont have the numbers. I was in the hall when the conservative party rose as one to give her a thunderous standing ovation, and ive also been in receipt of telephone calls, text messages, and e mails from people in my constituency and elsewhere, saying get behind theresa. Ive been able to say to them absolutely, we are all behind theresa grant schapps knows what he needs to do, he needs to get 48 signatures to trigger an election for the leadership of the conservative party. He says hes got up to 30, that could be eight. I suspect that he hasnt got anywhere near what he needs, and thats why hes doing this tantrum at the moment. By the time mps gather here again next week, mrs mays team feel sure theyll have seen off this assault, at least for now. But privately among tory mps, theres no longer much debate about whether mrs may will be driven out of office, just about when. Few seem truly to believe she can fight on through another election, and just now, shes looking so weakened that even lasting through to brexit, less than 18 months away, looks like a tall order. That accident prone speech was tough to watch, even for ministers who are thought to fancy herjob. She tried to revive her premiership and everything went wrong. Watching her and ambitious colleagues its hard to avoid thinking, be careful what you wish. More now on the shooting in las vegas with police saying theyve followed up more than a thousand leads in their quest to establish a motive behind the killing of 58 people last sunday. There have been vigils to remember the victims of the shootings, as our correspondent james cook reports from las vegas. Amazing grace, how sweet thy sound. In their darkest hour, they have turned to their god. Like me. The massacre in las vegas struck at the heart of the Christian Country music community. These are patriotic americans. They are proud of their country and of its freedoms, including the right to carry a gun, even after the deadliest of mass shootings. We lost my uncle from a head wound on tuesday afternoon. Tara king is the niece of brett swanbeck, who was 61 years old. My uncle was the funniest, funnest, hillbilly, red neck, Country Music loving good old boy. This was brett at the concert with his fiancee. Even though tighter gun laws may have perhaps saved his life his niece is resolute. I believe in the right to bear arms. I believe we are in the land of free. We are here because we are free to make our choices. Your uncles been shot and killed by a gunman. Yes. That doesnt change your view . Absolutely not. Are you kidding me . My uncle is all about. Hes all for guns. The worst thing that could happen, my uncle would be in a fit, my whole entire family, if they were going to take oui guns away. Grief, it seems, does not heal divisions in the United States. Guns and Country Music have always gone together. The cultures are intertwined. In rural america, you often hear people say that this lifestyle is maligned and misunderstood. And even in mourning, many people here are determined to defend their right to bear arms. For those americans, these crosses are the price of freedom. James cook, bbc news, las vegas. Its a key indicator of the health of the economy, productivity, the amount each worker produces per hour. Well, on that measure, the latest official figures show that the uk is lagging 15 below the average of the most advanced economies. And, as our economics correspondent andy verity reports, that could have serious implications for the chancellor Philip Hammond as he prepares for next months budget. At this cumbria glass maker, growth starts with a glob of molten sand. At each stage of the process, where its melted, shaped, and transformed into luxury goblets, the firms analysed how it can trim costs and boost the amount each worker produces, their productivity, from new glass recipes to Energy Saving furnace doors and that in turn can boost the amount each worker is paid. 0ur turnover has doubled and our productivity has tripled. We managed to reduce our energy costs by 30 byjust changing the style of doors. The furnaces didnt have any doors, they had to be invented and designed especially for us, but a small change thats brought about a massive benefit to the company. U nfortu nately, growth in productivity like that is now the exception, not the rule. Until the financial crisis, each worker produced a little more each year, but that engine of growth has stalled. If it had kept growing like it used to, each worker would produce a fifth more than they do now. Were not the only ones struggling to boost productivity, japan and canada produce less per worker, but were now behind italy and france and far behind germany. That weak record helps explain why we have the lowest unemployment in 42 years, but Living Standards arent improving. The economy has been growing by adding workers, not by boosting the amount each worker produces. The big reason for that is a lack of investment by private companies and by the government. Its not good for britain and its not good for british people for the economy to be producing lower wage jobs of a lower quality. We need to invest in roads, in skills, in the kinds of investments that lead to high value jobs, and into sectors in which those high value and those high earning jobs are going to take place. The treasury had been expecting productivity to grow, not to slump, and the official forecasts now look wrong, leaving the chancellor with a headache. With the economy projected to grow more slowly, the taxes wont roll in as fast, leaving him with a lot less room for manoeuvre and less money set aside in case of emergency. If productivity doesnt pick up, then Economic Growth wont pick up and the chancellor will have less tax revenue to play with, even less than he thought, and that means he will find it really difficult, more difficult than he thought it would be, to increase public pay, to give more money to the nhs, to sort out the social care problem. This really matters for my income and your income, and also for the quality of public services. The chancellor had thought hed have a Rainy Day Fund of £26 billion. Waiting for a rainy day, chancellor money he could spend or use for tax cuts, without busting his self imposed financial targets. When official figures revised at the nest next budget much of that money wont be there. Andy verity, bbc news. The trial of an Army Instructor accused of trying to kill his wife has been shown pictures of the parachute she was wearing which hes alleged to have tampered with. Victoria cilliers suffered multiple injuries when both her main and reserve parachutes failed to open during a jump over salisbury plain. Duncan kennedy reports from Winchester Crown court. This is the first time the parachute at the centre of this case has been seen in public, it was worn by victoria cilliers. 0ne expert said hed never seen a main chute so tangled and said the reserve chute had ties, known as slinks, that were missing. The prosecution case is that Emile Cilliers, on the left here, sabotaged his wifes parachute by deliberately tangling the main chute and removing two slinks. The court heard Emile Cilliers wanted victoria cilliers dead so he could benefit from her Life Insurance policy and because he was having an affair with another woman. When mrs cilliers main and reserve chutes failed to open over salisbury plan, she fell 4,000 feet and suffered multiple injuries. He should have handed it back in. Under cross examination from the defence, he admitted that other parachutists get their rigs in their lockers and that to have done so might not have been unusual. The jury might not have been unusual. The jury was told that he also tried to kill his wife a few days earlier in their kitchen by tampering with this gas mixture. He denies two counts of attempted murder. The case continues next week. Duncan kennedy, bbc news, at Winchester Crown court. Youre watching bbc news.

The us gulf coast, and florida, can be seen at the top of the screen. Nate is predicted to become a hurricane by the time it hits the United States on sunday. Janey mitchell reports. Deadly floods, mudslides, destruction, scenes all too familiar this Hurricane Season. But this time, Central American countries spared the worst of hurricanes irma and harvey have been in the firing line, honduras, costa rica and nicuragua. Translation the flood has taken away almost everything these people had in their homes. They had breakfast this morning but have not had lunch or dinner because theyve lost everything. Aid agencies say the succession of major storms this years has prompted them to consider expanding their provisions for such events. One of the lessons might be that we need to relook at preparedness scenarios and preparedness plannings and take into account the fact we will see more storms and they will be more ferocious. Forecasters are predicting that what is now a Tropical Storm churning north could strengthen into a hurricane as it heads for mexico and the us, making it the third major storm to hit southern us states in two months. Storm surge watches have been issued for alabama, mississippi and louisiana, which bore the brunt of Hurricane Katrina 12 years ago. It should be all right right here, but, uhh, i lost my boat in katrina, so, i didnt wanna lose it again. Louisiana has declared a state of emergency, ordering people to evacuate coastal areas. Because the waters in the gulf of mexico remain extremely warm, there is the potentialfor this storm to intensify very quickly. Landfall is expected early sunday morning either as a strong Tropical Storm or a weak category 1 hurricane. Texas, florida, puerto rico and many caribbean islands are still reeling from hurricanes harvey, irma and maria. But the Hurricane Season is far from over. For many, the end of november cannot come soon enough. Janey mitchell, bbc news.
