The taliban have announced a Caretaker Government in afghanistan. Its taken three weeks since taking control of the country. But the naming of the cabinet is a key step in establishing a full taliban government. This is Some of what their spokesman said. Up up to now, there are Caretaker Cabinet to be in charge of what we are doing today. We will have important Government Institutions and how we will decide to include people, how we will decide to bring people, how we will decide to bring people into the government, they will be all according to the law, according to the rules. Here are the top names to know about. The government will be led by Mullah Mohammad hassan akhund. Hes one of the founders of the taliban and has been head of its Leadership Councilfor 20 years. He has two deputies. Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar is another taliban founder who has been its Political Leader and most public face. The second Deputy Mullah AbdulSalam Hanafi was baradar� S Deputy in the political office in qatar. Sirajuddin haqqani has been named interior minister. Hes also leader of the taliban offshoot haqqani network. Hes wanted by the fbi in connection with Terror Attacks on us forces. And Mullah Yaqoob is acting defense minister. As you can see we dont know what he looks like. Hes the son of the Talibans Founder Mullah omar, and was already overseeing the groups military operations. But its worth saying that everything is overseen by the talibans supreme leader, hibatullah akhundzada. He hasnt been named in this Caretaker Government but has ultimate authority over the taliban. Meanwhile taliban fighters have broken up a protest in the afghan capital, kabul, by Firing Warning shots into the air. In the biggest show of defiance since the militant group Took power, hundreds of people denounced taliban rule and demanded womens rights. Some also chanted anti pakistan slogans. Many in afghanistan believe that neighbouring pakistan supports the taliban. It has dismissed these claims, but it is widely seen as has having long supported the talibans insurgency. Our Correspondent Secunder Kermani was at the protest in kabul and sent this report. Death to pakistan, the crowd chant. They are furious at what they believe is the countrys support for the taliban, including, they allege, in taking over panjshir, the last province to be captured by the group. Translation pakistan has directly attacked our country. We dont want pakistan to announce the government here. Afghanistan is a free country. We women and men are not the same as those 20 years ago who we were being whipped into submission. Pakistan say the taliban are afghan. Its got nothing to do with them. Translation | accept. The taliban are afghans, but behind them is pakistan. They gave them this ideology. Pakistan says it has always worked for peace in afghanistan. Taliban members initially appear to allow the protesters to march through the city. This is the biggest challenge to the Talibans Authority that weve seen so far, and its not coming from a militia force, its coming from peaceful protesters, from both women and men. In amongst the protesters, Some not afraid to directly criticise the group. Translation we demand freedom of speech. Democracy. National resistance against the taliban. Arent you afraid . Translation we are not afraid of death. We are the young generation. And will bring the bud of freedom. Our voices will make history. As the protests continued, convoys of taliban vehicles made their way to the scene. Gunfire eventually fighters fired shots in the air to disperse the crowd. Dissent is not Something the taliban are used to. Secunder kermani, bbc news, kabul. Looking at this in detail, it looks like quite a few of the usual names. It is a hard line micro government. It is a hard line micro government. It is a victors cabinet. It includes leading members of the taliban regime in the 1990s, people who held senior positions than are holding senior positions than are holding senior positions than are holding senior positions this time. Members of the younger generation of the taliban have been brought in. Those of counted say their 33 religious leaders and it underlining that people with the right religious credentials in the Taliban Movement have been included. There are senior Military Figures as well. Quite a few who are still on the us Terrorism Watch List or as in the case with the interim head of the Caretaker Cabinet was on the un sanctions list. This is a message to the route that the taliban have one and this is their Caretaker Government who say that perhaps they need a bit more space, Breathing Space as they move from guns to government and more to resolve what is said to be rivalries among these big political heavyweights and their sink officially that they need more time to perhaps be more inclusive but as always, being said here, most of all by afghans, judge them by their actions and not by their words. In their actions and not by their words. , w u, their actions and not by their words. ,. ,. , words. In practicalterms, what does this change words. In practicalterms, what does this change for words. In practicalterms, what does this change for ordinary words. In practicalterms, what does this change for ordinary afghans . It | this change for ordinary afghans . It changes a lot. The sun of the prominent commander during the soviet war, the member of whats known as the network where they deny even exists, the deputy Political Leader of the taliban now he is the ministry of the interior. Not a set of governance and that means he can start choosing the people who will be responsible for law and order. They have the ministry of Vice And Virtue again telling women what they can and cannot do in the streets, telling people what they can do in public offices, choosing the people will be the face of local government and will wield considerable power. Theres also Foreign Minister who can go around the world to the capitals which will accept him and represent the government of the taliban. Bear in mind, this movement of the taliban, which came out of the group the fight against the soviet union, operated in the shadows. The only time you saw their names as we looked at him news reports, the only other ones went to the Terrorism List of the us sanctions list, they have titles of the government anywhere in the world. Minister of defence, interior, caretaker, prime minister. The taliban are gaining legitimacy even as the world still has to decide, the road is Too vague a concept, individual countries or to decide neighbours, countries far away, how theyre going to engage with the taliban and whether or not they will put a redlines, if at all. Thank you for taking us through. Lets turn to the uk now and hiking up taxes on Working Families is one of the most risky things a politician, who wants to stay in office, can do. Today the prime Minister Boris Johnson has broken a Manifesto Promise and done just that. He thinks voters will back him because its for important things. Providing care at home for elderly and vulnerable people; and the nhs, which has been put under huge strain in the pandemic. Everyone knows in their bones that after everything we have spent to protect people through that crisis, we cannot now shirk the challenge of putting the nhs back on its feet which requires fixing the problem of Social Care and investing the money needed. So, we will do what is right in the reasonable and fair. Well make up the Covid I9 backlogs and will fund more nurses and remove the anxiety of millions of families up and down the land by taking forward reforms that have been delayed for far Too long. The plan is designed to raise £36 Billion over three years. About a third of the money has been earmarked for Social Care in other words, personal and residential support for elderly and other vulnerable people. The overall cost of that has soared because as people live longer, more of them need looking after in their final days. Under the current system Some people end up paying Tens Of Thousands of pounds if they are unlucky enough to need a lot of looking after. Ione wells has spoken to one woman whose story illustrates how the System Isnt working. Its haunted successive governments, how to fix social capital thousands of people dont end up selling their homes to pay for it. Sharons mum sold her house to find her staring at a Care Home for dementia, but that money is now run out. I tried to be jolly that money is now run out. I tried to be jolly and that money is now run out. I tried to be jolly and bubbly that money is now run out. I tried to be jolly and bubbly when that money is now run out. I tried i to be jolly and bubbly when im with To Bejolly and bubbly when im with her because its not for her to worry about comments for me to worry about. I will find that money. But i must admit, i will only hope that mum doesnt live Too long because otherwise i would be bankrupt as well. Most of the money for Social Care will come from 2023 onwards. There will be State Support so that. Anyone with assets less than 20k will have their costs fully covered by the state. And there all be a cap so that no one will have to pay more than 86k for care in their lifetime. It will be funded by a Rise Ofi and a Quarter Percentage points on a tax thats paid by both companies and employees national insurance. Someone earning £30,000 per year will pay an extra £255 annually. Raising national insurance breaks a commitment the conservatives made in their Election Manifesto two years ago. The party was planning to spend more on things like infrastructure and green initiatives. This was the prime minister, at the time, talking about everything would be funded thats our guarantee. And then he showed the manifesto to the audience. That was 2019. We can do all of these things that are raising our Income Tax or national insurance contributions. That is our guarantee. This is what the prime minister said today. No conservative government, no conservative government ever wants to raise taxes and ill be honest the house, i except yes, this breaks our manifesto commitment. Which is not Something i do lightly but a global pandemic was in no is manifesto, mr speaker. And i think the people of this country understand that in their bones and they can see the enormous steps this government and the treasury have taken. The Opposition Labour Party didnt accept that argument, this is labour� s leader, keir starmer. The pretence that the prime minister is only the pretence that the prime minister is only here the pretence that the prime minister is only here because of the pandemic is only here because of the pandemic is not is only here because of the pandemic is not going is only here because of the pandemic is not going to wash. He is putting a sticking is not going to wash. He is putting a Sticking Plaster over gaping wounds a Sticking Plaster over gaping wounds which his party have inflicted wounds which his party have inflicted. He made that commitment on social inflicted. He made that commitment on Social Care before the pandemic and he on Social Care before the pandemic and he said on Social Care before the pandemic and he said he would pay for without raising and he said he would pay for without raising taxes before the pandemic. Here he raising taxes before the pandemic. Here he is raising taxes before the pandemic. Here he is outlining where the money would be generated by this Tax Rise and where would actually go. They want the book of this money going to be national Health Service and in particular, the backlogs that we have seen after the pandemic and they said the cues, if, the problem is untreated, then it would lead to the 5 Million potential going up to 30 million. And that is completely unfathomable for any government and for the public Too. So, the money in the first instance, the great bulk of it is earmarked towards the nhs and in terms of the social Care Package, and the extra caps, they only by sequentially. Biting more as time goes on and it phases out, and then come to thousand 25, the book of this money, were not sure the precise bit above it but it will be going to funding the social Care Package in general. But youre right. 12 Billion a year is a huge amount of money, but it hasnt been individually earmarked by the billion in this much for the nhs and central care and our changes this year. We dont have the precise map as to how this evolves over time, just the broad councils of it. So we cannot be as just the broad councils of it. So we cannot be as precise just the broad councils of it. So we cannot be as precise as just the broad councils of it. So we cannot be as precise as we would l cannot be as precise as we would like to wear this money is going, can we be precise about which part of the population will foot the bill . , � , of the population will foot the bill . , � , , of the population will foot the bill . ,~ bill . Definitely. Its pretty rare to net a bill . Definitely. Its pretty rare to get a Rise Bill . Definitely. Its pretty rare to get a rise like bill . Definitely.

Its pretty rarel to get a rise like this directly on Pay Packets, laser guided on Pay Packets and Some of them were previously exempted that affected the over 60 sixes and now included in this national insurance levy. So, there is employees and employers for employees, its quite easy to work this out and roughly speaking, if youre on 20,000, youre looking at £100 extra per year and 50,000 in about 500,000 at about £1100 you can see the pattern there with those of the highest salaries will pay the highest over the course of a year. But what you do not get his tax on Property Income you dont get taxed on savings as you would do those Income Tax and there was another tweak which will also tax Dividend Income and the government to the argument that this is a tax on young workers which is going to fund care for the elderly and the generational affair but what they have done with Thatis Affair but what they have done with that is relatively modest. The longterm that is relatively modest. The long term challenges here, the government argued for this tax is that while the pandemic did change the equation, presumably Something is going into the future based on the fact that the economy will bounce back from the pandemic. Theres a few mixed arguments, whenever you get a Tax Rises like this, we will see the public with a reason, notjust a reason, it will literally be imprinted on Tax Bills from 2023 as a health, separate Health Levy and the government is putting a lot of store in the idea that all that money would definitely go to health and Social Care. It is a form of Marketing And Presentation what it means in practice is that when it is raised, 12 or £14 billion, thatsjust when it is raised, 12 or £14 billion, thats just a fraction of over going to spend on health and Social Care and ill always the case. And so the pressures of the pandemic are huge in the next few years in the nhs, the pressures from Social Care have always been there and youve got existing demographic pressures adding into the mix as well. So, a rise in taxes, the logic is this. That this is a permanent increase in what government does. Some of that arises from the pandemic and Some in other cases. And they can find her from borrowing, they have to funded from an increase in taxation. They think thats the honest the clearest way to find a permanent Funding Source for what will be a permanent spending change. The german election was always going to important because it will decide who replaces angela merkel. But its getting seriously interesting now because Mrs Merkel� s Cdu Party is now having a torrid few weeks in the polls. Let me take you through. Well start with what is likely to be angela merkel� s final address to parliament as chancellor. Here we see her walking into speak the bundestag thats the Lower House of parliament. And after 16 years of addressing lawmakers, this was quite a moment. She used it to attack her Coalition Partners the centre left spd and The Party on the rise in the polls. Heres Some of the attack. Translation citizens of the choice, even for a government that accepts, one that is not excluded. I am only telling the truth. Or a federal Government Led by the Cdu And Csu with them as chancellor. Die Linke Party that Mrs Merkel refers to there is far left and the democratic descendant of the Communist Party which governed old east germany. And as all parties know, there will be a Coalition Government after this election. Die linke is offering itself as a would be Coalition Partners with the Social Democrats, the spd, and the greens. Mrs merkel is keen to warn voters of what she sees as the risks that would involve. Shes also seeking to to present her own Partys Candidate this man, Armin Laschet as a stable leader for germany. Translation its also about tangible economic and fiscal considerations which will define the future of this country, the numbers ofjobs and are common prosperity. That is why, ladies and gentlemen, the best way forward for our country is a Government Led by the cdu and the csu with Armin Laschet as chancellor because his government will stand for stability, reliability, moderation and balance, which is exactly what germany needs. So Armin Laschet is being presented as a stable choice. That may not be enough. Look at this latest poll by latest the forsa institute. It suggests support for the cdu has fallen as low as 19 . To put that in context thats its lowest rating ever measured by forsa since 1949. And its well down on a couple of months ago. Meanwhile the Social Democrats are heading towards 25 . Berlin correspondent damien mcguinness. Usually, debates are very civilised, but this time around, the last german Parliament Debate for the election in three weeks time was rockets. German chancellor was out on the attack accusing them, the leader of the central left in the left Wings Chancellor candidates of not ruling out working together in coalition after the election with the radically left Wing Linker Party and she was doing this to scare of centrist voters who might consider voting for them of the green party. She was saying to them, you might want to wake up with the far left wing government. The problem is that they have a reputation as a centrist, a current Finance Minister and is known to be not that exciting but certainly reliable. To portray him as a scary lefty who might bring in Some communist regime isjust not very credible to many voters. More, this was seen as a sign of desperation is because the conservative blocks are doing so badly in the polls that until a few weeks ago, she was under the present and the Election Campaign and previously says that she doesnt want to overshadow her candidate, but he is doing so badly in the polls that she is not decided it is time to step in. That is why, for many people, this was a sign of desperation. Many are split over whether a proposed Oil Flow should many are split over whether a proposed oilflow should be many are split over whether a proposed Oil Flow should be given approval oilfield. Heres the story from james. Here on the Idea Edge of the uk, trouble is brewing. This over this horizon was the campbell oilfield. Campaign or save the barrel should stay in the ground.

There is no point in stopping production of Oil And Gas and we can control it in the uk instead of having to be imported.

It was built on oil. The proceeds paid for the Swimming Pool and several others. But now, these beautiful islands are torn of when and how to give up the grimy golden goose. I will see you in a couple of minutes time. Well, it certainly was a hot day for many of us today. And, as expected, temperatures approached and even exceeded 30 celsius. The first time since the 23rd ofjuly, we never had these values throughout august. So, hence it feels so oppressive out there. Were not used to these high temperatures, certainly none in the last few weeks. You can see the clear skies across the uk, but the sign of the breakdown of the heat is already visible in the far southwest of the uk and in fact, through the course of the night, there could be Some showers, hit and miss around parts of cornwall and devon. But the vast majority of us will have a dry clear night and will be a warm one Too. 15 in liverpool, 15 in birmingham, cardiff and plymouth no lower than 17 degrees. Heres the low pressure on wednesday, its approaching the southwest of the uk. Here is the Weather Front across the southwestern parts of the country and lets call it a thunder front. Its going to bring those thunderstorms and downpours to the South West to wales and basically by the time we get to the middle of the afternoon, it should be Somewhere here just moving towards bristol. But the vast majority of us should have that dry, sunny and very warm day. Hot day in fact once again, temperatures to hit around 13 degrees or so and central parts of england. Thats wednesday, what about Wednesday Evening . So, the heavy showers and downpours drift further north towards the east and theyre creeping across the country and the Met Office is warning that into thursday, gets a lot into thursday, we could see a lot of rainfall in the possibility of Flash Flooding across parts of wales, england as well as the slow heavy thundery downpours to establish themselves across the uk its a very unsettled day on thursday with the uk its a very unsettled day on thursday with a low centre across ireland and that risk of thunderstorms extending to many other areas, as well. Basically pushing away the heat. And in its place, a slightly fresher Atlantic Air moves in. So, the temperatures will be quite a bit lower on thursday and we are talking about 20 or maybe even making that across western areas across the uk, still hanging onto Some of that heat across parts of East Anglia in the east of england. And you can see that windows Temperatures Drop to around 28 on wednesday in london, were down to about 20 for the weekend. Thats it for me. Goodbye. Hello, im ros atkins. Welcome to outside source. The taliban announced a Caretaker Government from afghanistan, which will be led by one of the groups founders. Other key positions were announced. Translation will be the caretaker of ministers. El salvador has become the first country to adopt bitcoin as a legal tender. Theres concern about how volatile bitcoin is and how it could cost people. Huge demonstrations are under way in brazil on both sides of the political divide. Tens of thousands of jair Bolsonaros Supporters have been out in the streets, accusing other branches of government of persecuting the president. Lets turn to central america. El salvador has become the first country to accept bitcoin as legal tender. From today, citizens can shop, pay taxes and buy land using bitcoin as an alternative to El Salvador� s other official currency, the us dollar. This is how itll work. 200 of these machines are being installed to enable people to convert their bitcoin into dollars, and can then withdraw cash, free of commission. Theyre called chivo. In local slang, that means cool. And as an incentive, anyone who downloads the App Theyll Need to do this, theyll get 30 Dollars in bitcoin forfree. The plan was pushed by president nayib bukele. Here he is on this moment. Translation salvadorans will have an app where they can receive bitcoin. Businesses, entrepreneurs, independent business owners, et cetera. The introduction of bitcoin in El Salvador is controversial. Its a developing country. 70 of people dont have access to a Bank Account. Around 58 of people have access to the internet, and if you dont have an Account And Arent online, you cant use bitcoin. And Some people are unhappy about this decision. These were protests in the capital, san salvador, earlier. And a poll injuly found 75 of people were against the move. Another survey found that under 5 of people understand bitcoin. These are Some of the concerns. Translation people dont want it. That coin is unstable. There is no price fixing. Translation our elderly people find it very difficult to use the technology needed for this virtual coin. Translation i dont like it. I like going to the shops and using banknotes. I president bukele, though, says using bitcoin is optional, and argues the move will save over 400 Million dollars in fees 400 Million in fees paid on remittances thats money sent back by El Salvadorans living abroad. And there are a lot of them around 2. 5 Million. In 2020,they sent back almost 6 Billion dollars. Thats 23 of El Salvador� s economy. Cutting costs on that would appear to make sense. Critics, though, see other motives. This a financial times editorial. It argues or theres this from Technology Commentator Stephanie hare. There is an entire crew of people who are interested in cryptocurrencies. We have to remember theres about 8000 of them in existence at the moment. These are not regulated. Theyre often used for money laundering. We have to look at whats also being put in place in El Salvador, which is this no capital gains tax, payments that are being done through bitcoin. That tells you Something right there. And also, if you invest in the country via bitcoin, three bitcoins, which is about 150,000, you would be granted residency. So, again, this is all being targeted at a very Niche Group of investors and people. Its not being targeted at your average person in El Salvador. One of the risks of using bitcoin as a legal currency is that its seriously volatile. Look at this. In september last year, one single Bitcoin Cost 10,000. In april this year, that coin was worth 63,000. Byjuly, it was down to 30,000. Its for that reason and others that the World Bank and both International Monetary Fund oppose cryptocurrency as legal tender. Heres Stephanie Hare again. Its not going to be for most people in El Salvador. Most of them dont have a Bank Account or smartphones and are not on the internet. There are four intendant living in poverty. Youve got that issue right there. This is a country that last year alone had one of the biggest Economy Crashes in four essays. Who is going to use it . Four decades. Its going to be people who can afford the incredible swings, the volatility. This is, though, a significant moment for bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, one that may pave the wave for them to gain greater credibility. Heres an expert at investment firm, brewin dolphin. This isjust one of the milestones that bitcoin has overcome On The Road that bitcoin has overcome On The Road to that bitcoin has overcome On The Road to acceptability because Bitcoin Road to acceptability because bitcoin has long received many Criticisms Bitcoin has long received many criticisms. The technology behind bitcoin, criticisms. The technology behind bitcoin, it criticisms. The technology behind bitcoin, it is likely to be widely adopted bitcoin, it is likely to be widely adopted in the future because there is also adopted in the future because there is also other alternative coins likely is also other alternative coins likely to is also other alternative coins likely to be used as well. We think that this likely to be used as well. We think that this is likely to be used as well. We think that this is exciting, but a lot remains that this is exciting, but a lot remains to be seen. Lets talk about this with joe tidy. Help me out here. How much of significance comes with the story . Well, if you ask bitcoin enthusiast, its a momentous day. The currency has finally found its place and its purpose. Bitcoin has often been described as a solution looking for a problem. If you ask the fans of bitcoin, and there are lots and lots out there, they will say this is a Big Time that they are celebrating. 0f Big Time that they are celebrating. Of course, theres been a push On Reddit and other Social Media Platforms where people are celebrating by buying 30 worth of bitcoin in Salvador Edie a solidarity. It went up to about 52,000, but crashed to about 10,000 less. Even the president himself of El Salvador said hes not considered the volatility, but is clearly facing Some.

I havent heard a decent buy at the wrong moment . I havent heard a decent argument buy at the wrong moment . I havent heard a decent argument against heard a decent argument against that. Even the fans of bitcoin, that is an issue. I suppose when you speak to people who say that bitcoin is the future, they will point to the fact that it is decentralised. It allows you to change your money across borders with no charges, although thats disputed as well. Also, they say this is the future of currency that we should all be embracing. There are Some countries who could follow suit. Im looking towards kazakhstan, who i know is embracing the bitcoin minors.

Please dismissing the countrys military rulers are just missing a call from their opponents. They are calling himself the national Unity Government. They are either in exile, detention or in fighting. It called on citizens to take part in the resolution. This is its leader. Translation today, we look to war against the militaryjunta. As this is a public revolution, we call on all citizens in myanmar, and every corner of the country, to revolt against the military terrorists.

Hes now calling for armed groups across myanmar to attack government forces. Lets get the analysis ofjonathan head. Its the analysis ofjonathan head. It� s interesting that the national Unity Government is now calling for this mass uprising. Itsjust government is now calling for this mass uprising. Its just first its leaders and hiding.
