And India Cruise to a comfortable win against england in the fourth test at the oval. Hello and welcome if you have just joined us. Its good to have your company this evening. The government is preparing to unveil its long awaited plan for Social Care and the Nhs In England, with the announcement expected tomorrow. But the Prime Minister is under growing pressure over how its to be paid for. Critics say any rise in National Insurance would break manifesto promises and disproportionately affect those on lower wages. Tonight the Health SecretarySajid Javid has confirmed that the nhs will be getting an extra £51; billion to help it deal with the backlog of patients caused by covid and the Winter Pressures over the next few months. Our first report is from our political editor laura kuenssberg. The strain, the sadness, all too familiar. Steve had to sell his Parents Worcestershire House after his father passed away and his Mothers Dementia developed so much she needed full time care, and she still doesnt know that their Family Home is gone. Why did my dad bother to get a decent Pension And Pension scheme for that time because when you look at the long run, my mum with dementia, if she was of sane mind and her body had let her down i dont know how i could have sat there and told her this, and said, we have sold the house and it is going to have to pay for your care. The promise to ease that kind of heartache is familiar too. Made repeatedly long before his first moment in number 10. We will fix the crisis in Social Care once and for all, with a clear plan we have prepared. Cheering. You might remember this commitment, too. We will do all these things without raising Income Tax, vat or National Insurance contributions. Thats our guarantee. But forget this part of that manifesto. Tomorrow borisjohnson is expected to emerge to say, in fact, you cant have it all. On course to announce a rise in national Insurance Tax for workers and employers, to raise billions to be styled as a levy for health, and Social Care. Alongside more than £5 billion for the Nhs In England by next april. Everyone will want to know that we are committed to plans on adult Social Care, a new settlement, but also Today Announcement of this extra funding of £51; billion in the next six months for the nhs will really help tackle that backlog and that is a huge priority for us. Downing street is preparing to break one promise to keep another. After months of haggling, the government is expecting to announce a limit on the amount of any one family in england pays towards the cost of care, and to pump billions into the Health Service to catch up after the pandemic. The exact Price Tags not yet clear. The resistance to how it is to be paid for, well, that certainly is. One Cabinet Minister told me hiking National Insurance is the wrong thing to do and the wrong way to do it. Others preferred to talk seemingly about the cricket. England have lost the third wicket, i think but plenty of mps are publicly worried. In my view National Insurance rising is the wrong approach, somebody on £30,000 a year pays a bigger proportion of their income than Someone Earning is a quarter of £1 million. Would you be willing to vote against it . I have not shied away from making my view clear, i want to give the Government Freedom and flexibility to change, but i see a significant number of colleagues opposed to a national Insurance Rise per se. Number 10 will have to face down the opposition as well as some of their own, but waiting for change has been like watching paint dry. Downing street knows there will be a fight, but it is up for a battle to complete the job. Beyond this year there are big questions about how much money will be needed in the longer term to fund health and Social Care. Nhs leaders have said that an extra £10 billion will be needed next year alone, to cover day to day services. Heres our Health Editor Hugh pym. The funding of health and Social Care, it is one of the biggest and trickiest issues facing ministers and all of the uks administrations. The needs of an ageing population must be addressed and on top of that, the costs of covid, with some vital decisions for england expected tomorrow. A five Year Spending Plan for nhs england with annual increases was in an ounce in 2018. Was announced in 2018. That is what the Blue Line shows. The Orange Line shows what has happened in reality, largely because of covid and the big question, how much more will be needed in future years . The scale of the backlog of waiting, that we are seeing already, and were expecting to grow for many years to come, as people havent had care over the last 18 months, is going to have a profound effect on the nhs, but also, if we Cant Run services as efficiently as we used to, because of infection control, that adds to costs. The treasury will have worked out what it thinks is affordable for the nhs. Its understood theres been a fierce debate with Health Ministers and officials over what is required to tackle the huge challenges ahead. The nhs relies on a smooth running Social Care system, but the funding of care in england is another immensely complex issue, notjust how much individuals should pay, but what is required in terms of higher government funding. So, where might the extra money for the nhs and Social Care come from . Well, National Insurance has been talked about. That is paid by those in work and their employers, but not by those above retirement age. Then theres Income Tax, which covers income above certain limits, including what pensioners get from their investments. Other taxes include capital Gains Tax and vat, but those seem less likely options. Then theres higher borrowing, but that would have to be added to already high levels of government debt. Choosing Income Tax is something no government has done other than right at the very top since the early 1970s. Its 50 years since we had an increase in the main rates of Income Tax, governments hate to do that. National insurance contributions have risen quite a lot over the last 30 1;0 years, but they seem keen to do that because the population seems happier with it. Ministers have to decide who pays and how much. Higher Health Spending in england automatically means increases for scotland, wales and Northern Ireland, and their ministers, in turn, need to make awkward decisions on how the money is allocated. Hugh pym, bbc news. In afghanistan the taliban say they have taken control of the last Area Panjshir which has been holding out against their rule. The taliban have released a video of their flag being raised in the centre of the provincial capital. The leader of the Resistance Fighters has called for a national uprising against the taliban. Our diplomatic correspondent James Landale reports. This is the moment the taliban claimed victory in panjshir. The last bastion of opposition to its rule in afghanistan. If in a video released by the group, fighters raised their flag at the provincial Headquarters North East of kabul. In the capital, a spokesman said the taliban had achieved all the goals of its war. Translation we have captured panjshir with the will of god. The local leaders and religious elders have been co ordinating with us, and our operations went ahead with their help. But forces resisting the taliban in this mountainous stronghold denied the claims, their spokesman saying the groups fighters were only in a few valleys, and still facing concerted opposition. Three weeks after seizing kabul, the new rulers have yet to form a government. At the airport some normality is resuming, with a few flights taking off, but none as yet heading overseas. The Prime Minister. At westminster, mps accused the government of failing to do enough to help afghans wishing to come to britain. We are going to do everything we can to help those who wish to have a safe passage out of afghanistan, and that is why we will continue with our international friends and partners to apply whatever pressure we can, economic, diplomatic on the taliban, to ensure they comply with that, mr speaker, as they have said they will. The man who first sent British Forces into afghanistan said despite the withdrawal, the west should still be ready to put boots on the ground to defend itself. In my view, islamism, both the ideology and the violence, is a first order security threat. It operates in many different arenas and dimentions. And like it, its defeat will come ultimately through confronting both the violence and the ideology by a combination of hard and soft power. As it is, the taliban are still facing some internal challenges to the ideology, with women here in the northern city of Mazar E Sharif demanding a presence in the future government. James landale, bbc news.

A court in the netherlands has begun Hearing Testimony from families whose relatives died on flight mh17. It was shot down over ukraine in 2011; and all 298 people on board were killed. No one has ever been brought tojustice. Last year, a criminal trial began. Four men three russians and a ukrainian are being tried for murder though none are present and only one is being legally represented. Lets return to the story we were discussing, the fact that the Panjshir Area of afghanistan has fallen to the taliban. Professor Amalendu Misra has written a number of books about Conflict And Violence in afghanistan, and you have had plenty on which to write about over the last few decades. Let me ask you first about this claim the taliban make that it has taken control of the Panjshir Valley. Presumably it is hard to independently verify it. What evidence is there that this is more than just Propaganda Talk . We more thanjust Propaganda Talk . Have to believe the visuals, and they have occupied the governors house. But having said that, Panjshir Valley has a Very Plex strategic location. It is surrounded by high mountain peaks that are not accessible, and we understand that many soldiers have escaped to these unconquerable peaks and they will strike from there. So the taliban might have occupied the central town area, the city area, the capital, but it is unlikely that they will have a hand in maintaining it in the days to come. For have a hand in maintaining it in the days to come days to come. For now, it is fair to sa that days to come. For now, it is fair to say that the days to come. For now, it is fair to say that the taliban days to come. For now, it is fair to say that the taliban at days to come. For now, it is fair to say that the taliban at least days to come. For now, it is fair to say that the taliban at least is days to come. For now, it is fair to say that the taliban at least is the | say that the taliban at least is the dominant player in afghanistan, not least presumably because foreign actors who so want to meddle in the country over the last half century are for now at least absent. The situation on are for now at least absent. The situation on the are for now at least absent. Tie situation on the ground is are for now at least absent. Tij situation on the ground is such that nobody wants to intervene. There have been some attempts by iran today, the iranian Prime Minister said that they are closely watching how the taliban will treat minorities. So everyone is sitting on the fence and watching. But in the months and years to come, perhaps there will be some support to the government. The in the future, we might see many minorities fighting against Centralised Rule of the taliban. find Centralised Rule of the taliban. And we have the Centralised Rule of the taliban. And we have the national Resistance Front as it cause itself. They say they continue to fight. From what you are saying, the potential is that afghanistan remains a country divided and with the potential at least four Civil War never entirely banished. ,. , least four Civil War never entirely banished. ,. ,. , banished. There has always been a divided country. Banished. There has always been a divided country. You banished. There has always been a divided country. You have banished.

You have got the majority who are dominated by the taliban at the moment, that you have got the uzbeks and the tajiks, and none of them are friends with each other, so although we might see initially that the taliban is in charge, it is not going to last very long, and also there is factionalism that exists within the talibans ranks, and that is the reason why we havent Got A government there as yet. So i wont be surprised if a couple of weeks down the Line Everything unravels and the knives come out. ,. , come out. The critical question i su ose come out.

The critical question i suppose in at least delaying come out. The critical question i | suppose in at least delaying that come out. The critical question i i suppose in at least delaying that if not preventing it is for the taliban to be able to do something effective for the economy. I have seen reports that fuel for vehicles is now at 11;0 more than it was before the withdrawal. Basics are becoming harder to afford if you can even find them. Presumably that is almost more important than whether or not there are armed resistance groups in there are armed resistance groups in the Panjshir Valley. The panshir valley. Indeed. The taliban the Panjshir Valley. Indeed. The taliban have the Panjshir Valley. Indeed. The taliban have proved the Panjshir Valley. Indeed. The taliban have proved themselves the Panjshir Valley. Indeed. The I Taliban Have proved themselves to the Panjshir Valley. Indeed. The taliban have proved themselves to be a fighting force, but can they prove themselves as a Government Authority . Unlikely. Lets not forget that almost 70 of the Country Public Budget was from external aid, and most of its hard currencies have been frozen in the united states, the central bank of afghanistan doesnt have access to it. So unless the taliban does a Magic Trick and starts to address these challenges, it is not going to have control and there will be pockets of resistance all over the country because at the end of the day people want to know who is in power so unless and until taliban troops excel as a governing power, it is too early to say that, but i dont see them doing something very positive to come out of this. Professor Amalendu Misra at the university of lancaster, thank you very much for being with us, fascinating to talk to you. Lets Take A Look at the headlines now on bbc news. It is just approaching 90 minutes past eight. Pressure grows on the Prime Minister ahead of an expected announcement on long term Social Care Plans in england tomorrow. Theres a growing Tory Backlash amid reports of plans to raise National Insurance to fund the changes. The Nhs In England will receive an extra £51; billion over the next six months to support the treatment of coronavirus and tackling the backlog of patients waiting for Treatment Stop raising the taliban flag as the last remaining part of afghanistan falls after days of heavy fighting. Sport and for a full round up, from the bbc sport centre. Good evening. We are going to start with we are going to start with cricket. Englands cricketers have gone 2 1 down in their five Match Test Series against india after being outclassed on the final day of the fourth test at the oval. England resumed on 77 without loss but suffered an all too familiar Batting Collapse that left them struggling on 147 for six. They were bowled out for 210 india winning by 157 runs to go 2 1 up in the series. Emma Raducanu Hasjust begun her bid to reach a grand Slam Quarter final for the first time in her career. Shes taking on the home favourite Shelby Rogers at the Us Open having not lost even a set so far at the tournament. The 18 year old has looked on fire in the last week and so far. And she was broken in her opening game. Shelby rogers knocked out Ash Barty in the last round, but i can see that raducanu has held her second service game, so she is 2 1 down in that opening set, and you can follow it on the website.

The surgical procedure on the one year old sisters took months of preparation and involved dozens of experts. Sisters Face To face for the first time after surviving a miraculous marathon operation. Conjoined at the back of their heads from Birth A year ago, Separation Surgery was meticulously planned between major Blood Vessels in their heads. A very delicate task one bleed could be catastrophic. Translation of course, after all the preparationsl and all of the models we have built in a designated surgery room, we specifically prepared for this thing with a surgical Theatre And Vr of the twins and with a 3d Model we prepared in advance. Where the two were attached, there was no skin and skull, so doctors needed the babies to essentially grow more skin. Inflatable Silicon Bags were inserted into their heads and gently expanded to stretch their skin slowly. This meant that when doctors reconstructed their skulls after the separation, they had excess skin, which they could use to seal their new heads. We are just finishing the twins separation procedure. It has gone extremely well and im delighted how well the whole teams done. Its an excellent team here and its been a real pleasure to be a part of it. Medics say this type of surgery, a first for israel, has only ever happened 20 times worldwide. Separating them so young, they say there is now a high chance they will live normal lives already breathing and eating on their own. There is rehabilitation for their physical and cognitive development planned, which will, no doubt, be spurred on by these remarkable sisters own determination to succeed.

Most of us had a fine day on monday, lots of sunshine and now a dose of Summer Heat is on the way over the next couple of days as temperatures are expected to hit 30 degrees in one or two spots. I think in the midlands is where we will really feel the heat. In the short term it is quiet on the Weather Front across england and wales. Little bit more cloud and some dampness there in the North West of the country. These in the morning temperatures, 15 in glasgow and london, a lot of us will be waking up to sunshine, some of us to some Mist And Fog which will last through the morning, and one of two spots, essentially speaking, a quiet day with hot sunshine particularly in the midlands, 27 in hull, Mid 20s in the midlands, 27 in hull, Mid 20s In Southern and central scotland.
