We focus on the rain pushing northwards, much of Northern Ireland, central and southern scotla nd ireland, central and southern scotland and Northern England, very heavy across parts of wales and the west midlands, where it could cause further localised flooding. Atrocious driving conditions what in is evening commute. It stays very wet overnight across Northern England and southern scotland as we head into tuesday and then we see the next issue developing into tuesday afternoon, a rash of heavy and thundery showers for the midlands and southern england and these alone could cause further flooding issues. The rain peters out through central areas across the day and there will be sunshine and showers for scotland, some of them wintry over the Higher Ground as it turns colder. That area of low pressure slips away and allows the floodgates to open briefly from the arctic so much colder on wednesday, quite a strong wind blowing down the east coast. Look at these temperatures to start wednesday, the first proper cold morning of the season first proper cold morning of the season because first proper cold morning of the season because we first proper cold morning of the season because we will be into october by then. A touch of frost around but a crisp, bright, sunny morning for many and it should stay dry thanks to High Pressure throughout wednesday but it will stay breezy and even windy across the east coast, one or two showers there and the odd shower across irish sea coasts but temperatures much lower, 13 or 1a will be the high.

It is out in the mid atlantic and it will wea ken out in the mid atlantic and it will weaken and its remnants may see an area of low pressure close by to the british isles.

The remnants of lorenzo could push towards iceland 01 lorenzo could push towards iceland or bring southern and Western Areas wet and windy weather, so stay tuned to the chancellor, sajid javid, has promised a significant Economic Policy response if britain leaves the eu without a deal.

Thats all from the bbc news at one, so its goodbye from me and on bbc one, we nowjoin the bbcs news teams where you are. Good afternoon, its 1. 30pm and heres your latest sports news. Youre watching bbc news, im olly foster at the bbc sport centre. Scotland could have just saved their Rugby World Cup campaign. Theyve beaten samoa 3a points to nil in kobe. The scots produced a dismal performance to lose to ireland in their first game but were much more assured against samoa and ran in two first half tries through Sean Maitland and greg laidlaw. They knew that defeat would have left qualification for the quarterfinals out of their hands. A huge drop goalfrom stuart hogg saw them lead 20 nil at half time, two penalty tries in their favour in the second half saw them pick up what could a very important bonus point. Maitland was illegally stopped from going over towards fulltime. Their remaining games are against russia and japan. England are in tokyo, where they are preparing for saturdays match against argentina. Plenty of time to recover from the tight turnaround between their first two matches, the bonus point wins against tonga and the usa. Another win would guarantee eddie joness team a place in the quarters. The england number eight Billy Vunipola says they have really enjoyed the world cup experience injapan so far, especially watching the hosts beat ireland over the weekend. You take it for granted, playing in the world cup but watching other teams competing makes you more excited, especially myself. I watched the tonga game and the south africa game, the japan game. What did you make of the japan africa game, the japan game. What did you make of thejapan game . Africa game, the japan game. What did you make of the japan game7m was awesome, it was the best crowd i have seen all tournament. But obviously, it is the home nations, and they played unbelievably well. I think there is a lesson in that for us. We are pumped after these two games but we know argentina are going to come in hot. They have already lost one, we dont want to be in already lost one, we dont want to beina already lost one, we dont want to be in a position where we are scrapping next week. This week is massively important for us as a group. Dina asher smith is back on the track in the next hour or so at the world athletics championships in doha. Shes in the heats of the 200 metres. Hopefully there will be more specatotrs than last night. This was her completing a lap of honour after taking silver in the 100 metres behind jamaicas Shelly Ann Fraser pryce. The few thousand that actually watched the race had all but gone. The iaaf is expected to address the issue of empty seats later today, but heres asher smiths team mate martyn rooney. I think when you get into the stadium and uc the pinnacle races and there is no one there . When they are picking where the meats are, it needs to be in places where they will sell tickets and at least make the sport look as it can be, it is still an entertaining sport. It has a lot to offer. We are shooting ourselves in the foot a bit. Manchester city women have been drawn against Atletico Madrid in the last 16 of the champions league. City won the league cup and fa cup last season, but they were knocked out of europe in the last 32 by Atletico Madrid. City will play the first leg at home on 16th or 17th october. Wsl champions arsenal were drawn against slavia prague and glasgow city will take on brondby. Northern irelandsjonathan rea has won a record fifth world superbikes title.

The spaniard Alvaro Bautista who had won every race in the first three rounds was his nearest rival. Speaking to the bbc this morning, rea tried to place this title with his his otherfour. I think the greatest is always your first, ive dreamt of it since i was a kid and the rest have come as a huge bonus but this one was after may, it felt like it wasnt going to happen, it wasnt really on and there was no light at the end of the tunnel but we kept waking up and believing and never giving up. We believed our opportunity would come, whether in the next round or another round. Ill have more for you in the next hour. Claims that borisjohnson squeezed a journalists thigh under a table during a lunch are deeply concerning, according to former tory cabinet minister. Writing in the sunday times, Charlotte Edwardes said the incident took place in 1999, but the Prime Minister has publically denied the allegation. Justine greening, now an independent mp, says it raises significant questions. I cant comment on those accusations, but they are deeply concerning, and in the sense they go to the heart of this question about character and integrity of people in public life and what standards the electorate have a right to expect. Of course, denied very firmly by number 10. Its up to them how they respond to them, im saying i do think theres a question of character and integrity, and that also goes as far as a Prime Minister being straight with the British Public about what hes asking europe for on their behalf. One of the Prime Ministers most outspoken critics, sir nicholas soames, said he believes both borisjohnson and Charlotte Edwardes version of events. Sir nicholas was expelled from the conservative party earlier this month after he voted against the government to try and stop a no deal brexit. Hes been speaking to Victoria Derbyshire about the decision to be absolutely frank, im. Disappointed, at the least, and very angry that i had the whip taken away from me. Ivoted angry that i had the whip taken away from me. I voted against the government three times in 37 years and all on defence issues. It was a gross overreaction. To be candid, i dont mind but there are other collea g u es dont mind but there are other colleagues who mind very much that the whip should be returned to them andi the whip should be returned to them and i hope it will be at any sensible Prime Minister would look at that group, ken clarke, philip hammond, rory stewart, some of the real heroes of our party, suspended. I think it is absolutely insane. For you, if they said come back, would you, if they said come back, would you say no . I would think about it, frankly. If an Opposition Party table is a vote of no confidence in the Prime Minister, the Prime Minister was begging them to do that last week because it would lead to an election, would you vote with the government to bring it down, which mrjohnson once . There are no circumstances i can see that i would vote in a vote of no confidence the Prime Minister . I can see no question to which the answer is jeremy corbyn. And i would not vote to have a vote of no confidence and risk bringing the government down in that way. But if mrjohnson wants you to, how would you feel about potentially voting to do that . To bring the government down . I would not allow it to happen. I will not vote in a motion of no confidence against my government. Clearly, as you said, you do not Wantjeremy Corbyn in there. Would there be anotherfigure . Corbyn in there. Would there be another figure . People talked about Dame Margaret beckett. All of this talk about the national, its a fine idea. Essentially you will need to be in idea. Essentially you will need to beina idea. Essentially you will need to be in a worse place than we are now and we need to get on with getting this done and over the line one way or the other. How much do you think your party has changed since Boris Johnson became Prime Minister . think it has become, with respect to theresa may, i think it has become a great deal more energetic and purposeful. And i admire very much the Prime Ministers energy in trying to get this, i think we would talk about it today, onto, as norman smith said, looking beyond brexit and there are great opportunities for our country. I take the view it isa for our country. I take the view it is a historically bad decision to leave the eu but if the people voted to leave, we must honour that and the way to do it is to do it, as we said in the last manifesto, in a smooth and orderly way in order to cause as little disruption as we can to the Economic Life of this country. I want to ask you about the allegations surrounding the Prime Minister and Jennifer Arcuri and the allegations made by thejournalist Charlotte Edwardes, both of which the priming is to has delight or said everything was done properly both of which the Prime Minister has denied. They are being investigated by the authorities and if the Prime Minister had any interest to declare, he would have declared it and it would be in the Prime Ministers interest to resolve this. This is a seniorjournalist, and it would be important, in my view, for the Prime Minister to sort this out and try to resolve it. I do not think it is helpful to the Prime Minister or for the debate and to be frank, although it is serious and im not wrong to mitigate it in anyway, we have very big stuff to deal with and although it is serious it is but a sideshow to the bigger issues. The Health Secretary, matt hancock, says hes looking very seriously at making vaccinations compulsory for all School Children in england. Theres been a rise in the number of measles cases and the latest figures show a fall in the take up of all routine jabs for under fives in the last year. Simonjones reports. So we just do about there. A massive drive is needed, according to the Health Secretary, to get more children vaccinated. He told an event at the conservative Party Conference that he is very worried. When we, the state, provide services to people, then its a two way street. Youve got to take your responsibilities too, so i think theres a very strong argument for having compulsory vaccinations for children, for when they go to school, because otherwise theyre putting other children at risk. Measles is a serious illness that can lead to an infection in the brain. Just over 90 of children aged two were vaccinated against measles, mumps and rubella last year in england. Thats a drop from 91. 2 in the previous year. The World Health Organizations target is 95 , which scotland and Northern Ireland already achieve. Here at the department of health, there has been much discussion about what can be done to increase vaccination rates. The Health Secretary believes the public would back his idea and he says he has already taken legal advice from within government about how they might go about it. The British Medical Association has previously stopped short of calling for compulsory vaccinations. It wants adequate resources to make sure vaccination programmes reach those most in need, and a crackdown on social Media Companies who fail to stop the spread of false and misleading information. Simon jones, bbc news. Austrias conservative Peoples Party led by the former chancellor Sebastian Kurz has topped the poll in the countrys snap general election. With nearly all ballots counted, the party has won more than 38 of the vote, up from 31 the last time round. The process of building a coalition is getting under way. Bethany bell reports from vienna. Sebastian kurz and his supporters are celebrating. Despite the collapse of his coalition with the far right Freedom Party in may, his conservative Peoples Party has emerged stronger than before. I would like to thank our voters, it is incredible. It is an amazing day. It is a historic result for our party and we will try to have good talks with all the other parties in the parliament and try to form a government that works for the people of austria. Also celebrating are the greens. Climate change has emerged as one of the top concerns for voters. And the greens could now be a viable Coalition Partner for mr kurz. The biggest loser of the night was the anti immigrant Freedom Party, with support for them dropping by 10 following a video sting Corruption Scandal in may involving its former leader. The social democrats, who came in second, also had a disappointing result. So will mr kurz now look to the left or the right to form a coalition . Another pact with the Freedom Party could work in terms of content but may be unstable. And the greens say that they want radical change from the right wing policies of the last government. A grand coalition with the social democrats is considered less likely. In a moment well have all the Business News, but first the headlines on bbc news. The chancellor sajid javid promises a significant Economic Policy response in the event of a no deal brexit. Children could be made to have compulsory vaccinations before starting school the government considers tough new measures after a surge in measles. Thousands of women are dying from heart attacks because their symptoms go undiagnosed. Thomas cook customers may have to wait as long as two months to receive a refund for holidays they booked with the collapsed travel firm thats according
