Arsenal top their Group Despite losing in cologne. Good evening. British workers are facing an unprecedented two decades without any rise in average earnings, according to the leading Economic Research group, the institue for fiscal studies. It says the forecasts published with yesterdays budget made for pretty grim reading, with government borrowing still going up and austerity continuing. Its predicted that average earnings in 2022 could still be less than they were in 2008. But the chancellor has said hes confident he can defy the gloomy predictions, as our economics editor kamal ahmed reports. It can all seem a little distant. The treasury, the grand office of state. But what it says matters for all of us and that growth downgrade yesterday is likely to leave millions of people worse off. Out shopping in basildon, essex, adele and her daughter emily. Its a struggle making ends meet. I mean ive been working years and i havent had a pay rise at all. And i now have a child. Everything else has gone up. Rents gone up, foods gone up, all the other prices, gas, electric. We are constantly getting told this is going up, this is going up, but nothing else is going up with it, so you are literally working to live, thats all youre doing, working to survive every single day. I asked the head of the institute for fiscal studies why that growth downgrade mattered so much. Economic forecasts might not sound terribly important, but when they mean that your earnings, youre Living Standards, are going to be much lower than you expected, then its time to listen. Earnings in the early 2020s will still be below where they were in 2008, making this easily the worst decade and a bit for Living Standards. Notjust in living memory, but a long time before that, too. The Prime Minister and chancellor visiting a college for training builders. Today tory mps were patting Philip Hammond on the back, saying he had delivered a successful budget. But theresa may knows she has to convince people like adele that the government is on her side. What the budget was about was about jobs for people up and down the country. It was about ensuring people are in work with that income for theirfamily. That effort to seize the opportunities of the future has to overcome a major hurdle. The Living Standards squeeze. At the time of the financial crisis, average earnings were £24,500. They fell sharply as the financial crisis bit. And look at how slow the recovery has been. By 2022 people could still be earning less on average than they were ten years ago. That is the big question. Why arent real incomes rising . There are a number of answers to that. Firstly, the government of whatever party that over decades have simply failed to invest enough in the real things that matter, like our skills. The financial crisis, which sucked so much money out of the economy. And the businesses themselves. Some of which seem to prefer to rely on cheap labour rather than investing in things like machinery that would make them more efficient and mean they could afford a pay rise for those they employ. Tonight, labour supporters gathered in the West Midlands and cheered Jeremy Corbyn as he laid out the case against the government. They racked up more borrowing and more debt, wages are falling, growth is falling, investment is falling. Public services are at risk of closing altogether. People have been helped, the tories say, with record employment levels a higher living wage. And tonight the government was putting the finishing touches to the next effort at boosting the economy. The industrial strategy. Stand by for that next week. Kamal ahmed, bbc news. The chancellor identified what he called the stubbornly flat level of british productivity as one of the biggest factors behind the gloomy forecasts for economic growth. But Philip Hammond insisted the government had measures in place to deal with the problem. Our Business Editor simonjack asks why productivity levels in the uk are so poor and what can be done to improve them. Its the word of the week. Maybe the decade. It means the value of work done per worker per hour. If it goes up, the economy grows and so do pay and Living Standards. When it doesnt, they dont. Right now, it isnt. Now, when people hear our productivity is low, some people wonder, are workers being accused of being lazy . But its not really that at all. I could be the best typist in the world, the hardest working person, but there will be a limit to how many letters, for example, i could write. To really get things done, to be more productive, i need one of these. Better equipment and better training is a need recognised by britains biggest companies. I mean all the data suggest we do have a productivity problem. It has flat lined largely for the last few years. And i think everybody recognises that. And i think both companies and government and, indeed, education in general, we all have a stake in making that, fixing that, making that better. The governments answer has been to get Big Companies like bt to pay half a percent of their wage bill into an apprenticeship kitty that Smaller Companies can also use. But the latest figures show its not working. This time last year 117,000 people started an apprenticeship. At the same time this year, that number was only a8,000. A fall of a whopping 59 . So whats going wrong . The implementation of this policy has been diabolical. The inflexible approach to training, the 10 charge to employers when they used to have it for free, and then the procurement process for providers. All three of them have caused immense problems. And that is why the numbers have fallen. The problem doesnt seem to be demand from the apprentices themselves. My mum always wanted me to go to university but i always had to tell her that going to university doesnt give you the better, best thing ever. So, like, going university gives you a degree which is really good, however, doing an apprenticeship you get paid, you get better opportunities, learn skills, meet new people. Business groups are certain it is an essential part of solving our economic problems. If were going to tackle the productivity puzzle, we really need to see a massive increase in training, and that means getting people doing apprenticeships in the right areas, the right industries. Its one of the top three issues that our members tell us they want to see solved. The government said today it remains committed to providing 3 million apprenticeships by 2020. To hit that target, the plan may need a rewrite. Simon jack, bbc news. As people consider the impact of the budget, the Prime Minister will be in brussels tomorrow for meetings with other european leaders, including donald tusk, the president of the european council. 0ur deputy Political Editor john pienaar is there. The chancellor saying Economic Confidence will grow when there is more clarity around the brexit process. What is the prospect for that . Well, the really big economic challenges, whether its a slowing economy or nhs funding or Public Sector pay, they still loom as large as ever. The chancellor has learned to at least put on a smile and sound optimistic while delivering bad news. Hes avoided compounding the governments problems with that budget. Now that will be some comfort to theresa may because with a disappointing election behind her and brexit still ahead, she has more than enough problems than she can easily cope with. It is a very crucial points now for brexit. Because rushing up in the next few weeks in mid december there will be an eu summit where eu leaders will decide whether to break the deadlock on the brexit negotiations. If britain can show that its willing to write a big enough check by way ofa to write a big enough check by way of a divorce settlement, something of a divorce settlement, something of a0 billion or so, and that it has an answer to remodelling and re managing the borders of northern ireland, then those eu leaders say they will be willing to talk trade. If not, if that does not start to happen at this coming december summit, the whole brexit plan could be seriously delayed and possibly even derailed. The process of building up to that big decision start here in brussels tomorrow. When theresa may meets the Eu Council President donald tusk thats the sort of board of directors of eu leaders. Then there will be more talks and more crucial meetings and much more diplomatic work behind the scenes before the decision is finally taken. But we will, i think, see the decision starting to become clear over the course of the next two crucial weeks or so. Many thanks, john pienaar in brussels. Bangladesh and myanmar have signed a deal that could help to repatriate more than 600,000 Rohingya Muslims whove fled myanmar in recent months. The bangladeshi Authorities Say displaced people could begin to return within months. But aid agencies say their safety must be guaranteed. My colleague Reeta Chakrabarti reports from the port of coxs bazar in bangladesh. A mass of humanity has made its home here, a city made up entirely of people who fled. They arrive with stories of being shot at and raped and their children being killed. Would they, could they return to myanmar . Translation we wont go back. We were brutally tortured. Young men were put in prison and houses were set on fire. Rashida huq and her husband lost a son when they escaped. Here, at his grave, rashida breaks down. We saw her with her son two months ago. The 15 year old had trodden on a landmine laid in myanmar at the border where they cross to bangladesh. Two days after these pictures were filmed, he died. Then, she told us, she could not bear even to say the word myanmar. Here, in the cramped shelter she shares with her husband and six other family members, rashida says she wont return. Translation our hearts were broken in myanmar. What does pain mean . I had two sons injured in myanmar. Will we get peace there . If everybody goes back, we will. But our hearts dont tell us to go back. They dont, they dont. But according to the agreement between bangladesh and myanmar, some of these people could start to return injust two months time. Yet there are no details of how their safety will be guaranteed, nor of any international monitoring, making observers cautious. One thing is for sure, for refugees to be able to exercise their fundamental right to return home, the conditions that made them flee in the first place need to be meaningfully addressed. Refugees need to be able to decide voluntarily to return in a safe and dignified manner. Bangladesh has been under immense strain with this huge influx of refugees, so its understandably keen to find a dealfor their return. Myanmars motives are less clear, but the country will be under the spotlight next week with a visit from the pope. Without cast iron guarantees for the rohingyas safety, many will have serious doubts about todays announcement. Reeta chakrabarti, bbc news, coxs bazar in bangladesh. A brief look at some of the days other news stories. Jon venables, who was convicted of murdering the liverpool toddler james bulger in 1993, is back in prison while Police Investigate child abuse images on a computer. He was freed on licence in 2001, after being jailed for life at the age of 10. The former labour minister ivan lewis has been suspended by the party while allegations of inappropriate behaviour are investigated. Mr lewis denies any wrongdoing or non consensual behaviour, but says hes sorry if he has made women who work with him feel awkward. The jury at the trial of an Army Sergeant accused of trying to murder his wife by tampering with her parachute has been discharged, after failing to reach verdicts. Emile cilliers denied all the charges. The court had been sitting for 7 weeks. The Crown Prosecution Service says it will seek a retrial. The European Commission has cancelled the uks turn to host the European Capital of culture. Dundee, nottingham, leeds, milton keynes, belfast and londonderry had all already submitted bids to hold the title in 2023. The government says its deeply disappointed. The Commission Said it was a concrete consequence of brexit. The Argentine Navy says it believes there was an explosion close to the last known location of a submarine that went missing over a week ago with aa crew members on board. The blast described as abnormal and violent was detected around the time the submarine sent its last signal. Britain is part of a Huge International search effort thats under way to locate the vessel. Our defence correspondent Jonathan Beale has the latest. Its known as the silent service. But theres been no communication from the sanjuan and her aa crew for more than a week. The search had already reached a critical phase, with fears this submarine would soon be running out of air. Now, more worrying news. Scientists confirm theyve detected an abnormal sound underwater near her last known location. An Argentine Navy spokesman said it was a short, single, violent event, consistent with explosion. Its a bitter blow for relatives. Just a few days ago theyd been wrongly told there may have been attempts by the submarine to make contact. Now they feel betrayed. Translation i feel cheated. They are swines. They manipulated us. Translation we have no more saints to pray to, no more saints to ask. Aircraft and ships from more than half a dozen nations have been involved in what is still officially a search and rescue mission, at times in heavy seas. This, the view from the Royal Navy Ship hms protector earlier this week. But so far, nothing. The sanjuan left the southern tip of argentina almost two weeks ago. She was on a 2000 mile journey back to Mar Del Plata when she reported an electrical failure. Her last communication, halfway home, was last wednesday the same day they have now identified that sound like an explosion. If it was to be an explosion, or an implosion, more correctly, its very likely to have come from submarine. Theres nothing else in that area which could have caused that sort of noise. It now seems unlikely their prayers will be answered. For the families of the aa crew, hopes of a miraculous rescue have all but disappeared. Jonathan beale, bbc news. The Football Association and the Players Union have launched a major study into the health of 15,000 former professionals as part of an investigation into the long term risks of heading a football. The study will ask whether professional footballers are more likely to develop brain conditions such as dementia than the rest of the population. But, as our Sports Editor dan roan reports, authorities are being criticised for being slow to consider the problem. Thats a good ball, a little flick on its in the net heading the ball has been a part of football since the game was invented, but in recent years theres been mounting concern over the danger it could pose to players long term health. And today the fa announced itd finally commissioned a landmark study into links between football and dementia. The expert leading the research telling mejust how significant it is. Were going to be as thorough as we can possibly be. Were looking at in excess of 15,000 former footballers, and matching them to somewhere around a5,000 population control. So we get a good sense of what their numbers look like against what we would expect from the population. Nodding it on. 15 years ago, a coroner ruled that former england strikerjeff astle died aged 59 as a result of industrial disease dementia caused by repeated heading had contributed to the cause of death. One of hundreds of players diagnosed with degenerative brain conditions after retirement, astles family have been at the heart of the campaign demanding the sports authorities honour their duty of care to former professionals. The fa have a responsibility across the game in its entirety. The pfa are there for player welfare. But, yes, theyre doing it, but i still believe theyve been cornered into this. Theyve been cornered into doing the research. Its something thats not going to go away. Former england captain alan shearer, still the premier leagues leading goal scorer and a player renowned for his heading, highlighted the issue in a recent bbc documentary, undergoing a series of medical tests on his own brain. Im pleased that eventually the authorities have listened and are now going to do the research that should have been done years ago. We cant look back, unfortunately, we can only look forward now and support willie and his team. And, hopefully, they will be able to start and get some answers now. Today, the fa said it felt compelled to conduct what it vowed would be one of the most comprehensive studies ever into this issue. Further proof that it must now address one of the greatest challenges facing its future, both in the professional ranks and at the grass roots. Despite the obvious Health Benefits for children who play sport, there are now calls for heading to be banned for under 11s until the health risks are better understood. And footballs not alone. Rugby has had to change its rules over the assessment of head injuries. Am
