Uk Job Vacancies Have Hit a record high rising above One Million for the first time since records began, according to official figures. Lawyers for Prince Andrew Tell A Court in New York that Sexual Assault allegations filed against him are baseless and potentially unlawful. Travel Body Abta is calling for a significant overhaul of the Governments Traffic Light system. The met gala one of fashion� s biggest and starriest events has rolled out its Red Carpet in New York for some of the planets best known celebrities. Good morning. Well all get more details later from the government on its plans to deal with the pandemic over the coming months in england. We expecting that all Over 50s will be offered a covid boosterjab. It was confirmed last night that children aged 12 15 will be offered a single Vaccine Dose from next week in england. Heres what some teenagers think of that. I dont want to make a decision where maybe i might regret later in life or. I just want to take things at a pace where i know i understand. Its very cloudy recently. A lot of people recite that source and other sources. It is not one clear idea behind it one person will say is not safe and another will say its safe. Its kind of contradictory. So it sounds like you are a bit confused at the moment about what is the right thing to do. Me and many other people, yes. I definitely want to get the vaccine as soon as possible. I think it will really help me and the people around me if i try and stay as safe as possible. Invitations for the vaccine will begin next week, heres the Vaccines Minister nadhim zahawi. What will happen is that clinicians will Share Information with parents, with the children, leaflets, online as well. Then there will be a Consent Form sent from the school in the usual way that schools do it. Some schools do it in hard copy, they will put it in a letter for parents to sign, some do it electronically, so they will E Mail parents to gain. Share information and gain their consent, so parental consent is required and then the Vaccination Programme will take place. There are concerns though from teachers about how the plan will be rolled out. This opens up a number of other issues. Logistically, how will this work in a School Or College . But secondly, what happens if there is a dispute between a young person and their parent . What we dont want is our members, who lead our schools and colleges, to feel in any way that they are part of that. You know, they have been receiving, in some cases, some pretty snarky E Mails and letters from organisations saying they are opposed to vaccinations and making all kinds of accusations to school leaders if they were to allow this to proceed. Lets hear from parents. Lets hearfrom parents. Are you getting your child vaccinated . Lets talk to claire hordle, who is the Mum of a 13 year old girl. Are you happy for your daughter to be vaccinated . fist are you happy for your daughter to be vaccinated . Be vaccinated . At this point in time, be vaccinated . At this point in time.

There isjust not enough evidence available to me at this moment. I am really concerned at the fact that one minute we are offering double jabs and now we are only offering single jabs. I have been double jabbed myself so i am not an anti baxter, but there is just not enough evidence of this Age Group to make it work at this moment. Is it because they dont want to have disruption in the Education System . You know, they should have thought about this back in july, should have thought about this back injuly, June Orjuly of this year. Whatever happens now, even if children get Side Effects theres going to be disruption to education i think. ~. , going to be disruption to education i think. ~. , i. I think.

However, one that was the 3rd Of September when that was released, however, the majority of those have already got vulnerabilities with their health anyway. What about healthy children . I have seen no statistics on how the children. How many healthy children have been admitted to hospital . How many have admitted to hospital . How many have admitted to hospital . How many have admitted to P I C u and how many have been affected by it covid today . My nephew, who is 2a, he had won vaccination, he then went down with covid. He was pretty poorly for a few days but he got over it and now he has had his second vaccination. But, you know, they are also saying from some of the News Reports i read yesterday that the leading Health Officers have said that most children have probably had this and they may have some Antibodies and so they willjust give them one vaccination. I feel i dont see any of the evidence to that fact and so it seems to be a lot of contrary advice. Ii that fact and so it seems to be a lot of contrary advice.

I used to be in the Army Cadet Force and are used to be an Adult Instructor for many years and i used to deal with 1318 for many years and i used to deal with 13 18 Year Olds and the difference between a 13 year old, just coming in to a unit versus a 15 or 16 year old is astronomical. Their understanding of Life And Life experience is very different and all children are different as well. They are children still at 12 13 14 and they are not quite adolescent in my mind. They are still very much seeking parental consent on things, whereas, you know, as they get older, they do start to get a little bit more rebellious, they start to think about their own minds a bit more and they are more entitled to make their own decision, which is why we have the age of consent being 16. We want these young people to make their minds up and make their own decisions, but my personal opinion is my daughter is not capable of making that decision. She has no idea about what the Long Term effects could be or even if she is willing to take that risk right now. Because we dont know. And nobody can tell me that we do because it has only been around for 18 months and because the Health Risks are so marginal, my Opinion Hasnt been swayed yet and i am just waiting for some evidence to come out. I dont know what is going to be, but i am waiting for something to tell me that yes, this is going to be safe, yes, it is going to make a major impact to the transmission rights, to people getting severely poorly over the winter and then i will be happy.

Thank you for talking to us. She does you for talking to us. She does raise interesting questions and lets see if we can get them answered. Dominic wilkinson is professor of medical ethics at the university of oxford. Do you agree with our Mum who suggested there is a really big difference is in a 12 and 13 year old and a 15 year old when it comes to Competency And Consent . Thats absolutely right. Of course, children develop their Independence And Understanding and ability to make decisions over time and not all do that at the same rate. Although we have these traditional age Cut Offs, one of the things that the law has been clear about for some time is that you need to consider each individual in relation to the specific decision that they are making. So, some younger teens may be able to make these decisions and others are not ready to do so. According to the Vaccines Minister, as i said to our mother, it will be the medical professional who will bring a Parent And Child who disagree together to talk through the facts, as far as they know them, and then that medical professional will decide whether the 12 15 year old has the competency. It is that 0k old has the competency. It is that ok with you . Old has the competency. It is that ok with you . I old has the competency. It is that ok with you . | think old has the competency. It is that ok with you . I think there old has the competency. It is that ok with you . I think there are old has the competency. It is that i ok with you . I think there are some real practical questions about how thatis real practical questions about how that is going to work in a School Setting. You can well imagine a gp sitting down with a young person and establishing their understanding of the vaccine, their understanding of the vaccine, their understanding of the choices they have and making an informed decision. I think its very difficult to see that being possible in a School Setting where they are trying to get through and vaccinate large numbers of people in a short space of time. Large numbers of people in a short space of time space of time. Right, so in the ractical space of time. Right, so in the practical Side Space of time. Right, so in the practical side of space of time. Right, so in the practical side of things, space of time. Right, so in the practical side of things, you i space of time. Right, so in the l practical side of things, you just dont think there will be time for the vaccinate is to do that. The Vaccine Minister did say he imagined it would be, the cases would be few and far between for a dutch parent and far between for a dutch Parent And Child disagreed. How did you find consent, how do you fine define competency . The find consent, how do you fine define competency . Find consent, how do you fine define competency . The idea that we have in law. Define competency . The idea that we have in law. In define competency . The idea that we have in law, in the define competency . The idea that we have in law, in the uk, define competency . The idea that we have in law, in the uk, dates define competency . The idea that we have in law, in the uk, dates back. Have in law, in the uk, dates back now 35 years or so, and it is the notion of gallic competence, and this is our situation of Victoria Gillick who was concerned that a young person might be given contraceptives against her wishes. If her daughters went to the gp. So sheets sought a clear statement that that would not be possible. And then they gave the opposite statement. They said that the young person who understands whats at stake, can make a decision without their parent or even against their parents refusal. So that is the principal, theissueis refusal. So that is the principal, the issue is for a Health Professional like myself, i am a paediatrician, is to understand is this particular young person mature enough, do they understand the issues that they are able to make this a specific decision on their own. ~ this a specific decision on their own. ~ ,. , this a specific decision on their own. ~ i. , this a specific decision on their own. ~. ,. , ~. , joining me now is our chief political correspondent, adam fleming. There are lots of issues for parents and young people to consider here, which the government realises. Iliiuihat which the government realises. What has been interesting which the government realises. Wast has been interesting for me which the government realises. Kwisgt has been interesting for me as an outsider who doesnt have children and observing this is not something i have had to grapple with in my life, but then you realise, there are lots of professionals out there who have been grappling with it as you have been hearing for decades and there is Case Law out there. I know it is interesting and i have been struck in the last few days but teachers and schools do not want to go there. They are happy to provide the venue through the jab is to be given, they are happy to collect the Consent Forms and handed leaflets that can be provided by the government, but they dont want to get involved in any of these discussions or facilitating the conversations with the people doing the injections, the parents and children receiving them.

We have this Press Conference with the Prime Minister later and we know a bit about what he is going to say in terms of how he is going to say in terms of how he thinks he is going to tackle any upsurge in covid raise in the coming months. The upsurge in covid raise in the coming months. , upsurge in covid raise in the coming months. , upsurge in covid raise in the coming months. , , months. The way it has been explained months. The way it has been explained to months. The way it has been explained to me months. The way it has been explained to me is months. The way it has been explained to me is plan months. The way it has been explained to me is Plan A months. The way it has been | explained to me is Plan A and months. The way it has been explained to me is Plan A and about vaccines and so alongside the offer from yesterday, today we are probably going to get more details about the big Booster Campaign for the Over 50s and we reckon it will be delivered in the same way as the original vaccine campaign, when you stop of the oldest and most vulnerable and people in Care Homes and people working in the nhs and then you work down the age bands until you get to 58 and it will be a single dose, probably six months after your second dose of your original Coronavirus Vaccine and thatis original Coronavirus Vaccine and that is Plan A. And in the rest of this document we will get plan b, which is the measure is the government is going to hold in reserve for the various scenarios that could unfold with covid. And the things that have kind of leaked out in advance are the idea that the rules and masks might be tightened up rules and masks might be tightened up and so we will have to wear masks in more places and it could be made mandatory and this idea that the work from Home Guidance might revert to working from home as opposed to have a conversation with your employer about working in work safely. And theyre working in the background that if things get bad the idea of introducing Covid Packed Passports for nightclubs. There is always more stuff in there that is briefed in advance and i think there will be lots of questions, as there always are about who will be making these decisions to reintroduce measures . Will be ministers . Will be local authorities . Will be local directors of Public Health . And i dont think we will have any thresholds or triggers in there because up until now, ministers have liked to leave it as a matter for theirjudgment about when to reintroduce things, rather than having obvious trigger points. Another thing we will have to wait a little bit longer for is what is happening with the Traffic Light Travel system because the government is committed to review that whole thing by the 1st Of October and saw Thatis Thing by the 1st Of October and saw that is floating around the system as well but i dont think it is ready to emerge from the system yet. Thank you very much. And thank you to your messages about the kind of conversations that are going on in your household about whether you have a child between 12 and 15. Celeb has said he has a child with Learning Difficulties and has already received one dose. Part of their decision was made and how they would cope physically and emotionally if they had covid and it wasnt mild. I suppose every parent will have to give consideration to different things. Hilary said that yes, her15 year old different things. Hilary said that yes, her 15 year old son agrees completely. I am a Cancer Patient and he wants to give me and others and he wants to give me and others and himself safe. 15 year old me would not have been so make sure mature, said hilary. Mummy bug says that her son is 11 and a half and he has autism and he cant remember any previous jabs. He wants it and we want him to have it and he has anxiety of covid and the cost of covid is making it worse. Another said that they have had this discussion with a 14 year old son and he will have his vaccine and they will take it with our consent as parents. Our mother earlier told us that she wasnt happy for her 13 year old to receive it.

I can now speak to Saffron Cordery whos the Deputy Chief Executive of nhs providers who represent Nhs Trusts in england. Hello to you. From what we know of the kind of Tool Kit that the Prime Minister is going to keep up his sleeve should Infections surge over the coming months, are you have been about whats available . I the coming months, are you have been about whats available . About whats available . I think that what we have about whats available . I think that what we have to about whats available . I think that what we have to look about whats available . I think that what we have to look at about whats available . I think that what we have to look at from about whats available . I think that what we have to look at from an i about whats available . I think that i what we have to look at from an Nhs Perspective is what all of this means for trusts on the front line, really fighting the covid battle. I think using vaccinations is absolutely critical and we have seen that they have been successful in reducing the severity of covid in those who have been vaccinated and also back translation into Hospital Cases and ventilation cases. But, and i think there is a big but here, we also need to remember that despite the vaccinations, which are really important, we are seeing in covid cases rising steadily and we are seeing particularly spikes in the number of covid cases when we have big events, things like the Euro 2020 finals and things like that. We do see things like people coming together En Masse and then a spike in cases. Share coming together En Masse and then a spike in cases spike in cases. Are those people, is that translating spike in cases. Are those people, is that translating to spike in cases. Are those people, is that translating to people spike in cases. Are those people, is that translating to people going l is that translating to people going into hospital . Into hospital . When you see the number of into hospital . When you see the number of cases into hospital . When you see the number of cases go into hospital . When you see the number of cases go up, into hospital . When you see the number of cases go up, the into hospital . When you see the. Number of cases go up, the Number And Proportion of people going to hospital does rise. While you cant directly trace every individual back to Hospital Cases, overall, we do see the number of Hospital Cases rising with those kind of spikes and then the onward, upward trajectory. I think it is really important that we keep a very close eye on Hospital Cases, ventilation, Bed Cases and then remember that the nhs is trying to do twojobs then remember that the nhs is trying to do two jobs at the moment or threejobs, look after to do two jobs at the moment or three jobs, look after those who are presenting for Emergency Treatment through A E Departments and a Crisis Care in Mental Health, looking after covid patients who have becoming really poorly and also trying to get down that backlog of waiting for routine operations and there is a finite number of hospital beds, there is a finite number of staff and you have to balance those two so that the more covid patients, the more fewer Hospital Routines and procedures that can take place. We have to remember that that is there and needs to be looked at and so it is notjust about present preventing the nhs becoming overwhelmed by covid alone, it is enabling the nhs to carry on with thejob but it enabling the nhs to carry on with the job but it needs to do and so people who were in pain, people who need a really important diagnostic Test Or Someone who needs to be able to access Mental Health support. Some really important elements to remember there as well. Some really important elements to remember there as well. Thank you ve much remember there as well. Thank you very much for remember there as well. Thank you very much for your remember there as well. Thank you very much for your time remember there as well. Thank you very much for your time today. Borisjohnson is mourning the loss of his mother, after she died yesterday at the age of 79. Charlottejohnson wahl, who was a painter, died suddenly and peacefully at St Marys hospital, paddington, yesterday. Prince andrews lawyers have told a pre Trial Hearing that legal action accusing him of Sexual Assault is baseless and should be dismissed. Virginia giuffre has launched a civil lawsuit over the alleged abuse, which she says happened two decades ago, when she was 17. The duke of york has consistently denied ms giuffres claims. Our North America Correspondent Nada Tawfik sent this report. Well, this first hearing really centred more on procedure rather than the allegations. Those allegations, of course, Virginia Giuffre accusing Prince Andrew of sexually assaulting her in london, New York and the us Virgin Islands when she was just 17 years old. Now the duke of york has strenuously denied those allegations, even saying he has no recollection of ever meeting Virginia Giuffre. But in court it really did focus on the steps ahead. Prince andrews attorney told the court he had two main arguments. First, that the papers were not properly served to the duke of york, that the Uk High Court had to weigh in on the legality of service. And secondly, he said they believed this lawsuit was potentially unlawful and baseless. And what they said they wanted was to see a 2009 Settlement Agreement between Virginia Giuffre and jeffrey epstein. Now they believe there is a release in that agreement which would absolve the duke of york of any legal obligation. Now, Virginia Giuffres attorneys, in response, said they thought that was a mischaracterisation of that settlement. They also said if Prince Andrew does feel that he was not properly served, that he needs to put in a formal motion through the court, so that could be litigated. The judge will hear oral arguments in october, october 13, and that will be in person. The next chance these parties will have to once again debate whether this case can get under way. A global survey has highlighted the depth of anxiety many young people are feeling about climate change. Nearly 60 of young people approached said they felt very worried or extremely worried. More than 45 of those questioned said feelings about the climate affected their daily lives. The survey across ten countries was led by bath university, in collaboration with five universities. It claims to be the biggest of its kind, with responses from 10,000 people aged between 16 and 25. Joining me now is caroline hickman, who co led this report.

You could take it as a very frightening picture, but you can also take it as a Call To Action, that we need to start listening to the powerful feelings that children and young people how having. And they are feeling dismissed and not listened to. So, yes, its worrying, buti think its also quite a call to arms, a Call To Action and we need to start listening to them. Arms, a Call To Action and we need to start listening to them. Some of the stress and to start listening to them. Some of the Stress And Anxiety to start listening to them. Some of the Stress And Anxiety wasnt to start listening to them. Some of the Stress And Anxiety Wasntjust L the Stress And Anxiety wasntjust related to climate change, it was also related to what young people saw as in action in governments. Absolutely. This survey really did something different, it talked to children about notjust what something different, it talked to children about not just what they were feeling but what they were thinking. And what we wanted to measure is how this also impacted on the daily functioning and lives. Large numbers of children were telling us that this is affecting daily life, eating, sleeping, playing, going to school, studying. And we wanted to understand what their link with government was about for them. Their link with government was about forthem. Because their link with government was about for them. Because so many children have been telling us that actually, their anxiety is notjust about environmental problems, its their anxiety is notjust about environmental problems, its also about the fact that adults, primarily governments and big business, are failing to act. And so thats what we are asking them about and children started telling us that they were feeling betrayed and abandoned and they felt the government were lying about the effectiveness of the action they were taking to address the climate see measures. I were taking to address the climate see measures. See measures. I thinki am right in sa in see measures. I thinki am right in saying that see measures. I thinki am right in saying that you see measures. I thinki am right in saying that you run see measures. I thinki am right in saying that you run a see measures. I thinki am right in.

Notjust children and young people but adults and couples. I work as well with the group, climate Psychology Alliance and a lot of therapists are seeing increasing numbers of people coming to talk to us about this. And so its not a sort of generalised everyday anxiety. A lot of people can feel quite worried about this but we are also increasingly seeing people wear their anxiety is making them hard to cope on a daily basis. Its not about minimising this anxiety, its its not about minimising this anxiety, its not its not about minimising this anxiety, its notjust looking at the News And Weather and thinking, oh, this is getting worse. Wejust have to look at what is happening this summer with the heat, with the flooding, in New York, london, china, germany. We measure Mental Health by looking at People Plasma Capacity to accept respond to external reality and the external reality is that things are getting worse. And scientists are continually telling us this message that things are getting worse. But what people need in order to reduce anxiety is to see Government Action to be aligned with that science.

A bit of a wet day in store. This is lincolnshire a short while ago. They will be one of the wettest spots due to a batch of rain that pushed out of Northern France during the early hours.

But the rain could be relentless to be part of the midlands, lincolnshire and parts of yorkshire through the afternoon and evening. At The End of the day, brighter towards the west. We have probably seen the back of the west of the rain in the far South East corner. There is a risk of flooding and appalling conditions on some of the rose. Showers to the Western Isles and scotland through this afternoon and evening. Dry and bright weather with sunshine around. Tonight, that rain gradually pushes towards the north sea.

The number ofJob Vacancies in the uk Have Hit a record high as the Economic Recovery continues.

That is a success story, it shows the economy is recovering but the problem is, thosejobs are vacant and it means those jobs are not being filled by people we would have thought would have failed them. Things like Hgv Driver shortages, some empty shelves and that has caused a problem. At the same time it is worth remembering when the fellow scheme, Job Support Scheme comes to an end there will be A Million people having their wages supported by that scheme. You could think those million people could go into those million emptyjobs. They may not have the right skills, they might not be in the right place. That causes problems for the economy. Supporting those people out of work, but making those businesses run without the staff that they need. So lets get the thoughts of Chris Gray he was with us this morning.

But more importantly, to abolish the need for a Pcr Test when people come back. If they have been double vaccinated, all the evidence suggests there is no difference between positivity of people coming back from these countries and people living in the uk anyway.

Brighter towards the west. The rain has been falling in the last couple of hours and this is the last couple of hours and this is the heavier batch of rain working towards london, East Midlands and lincolnshire.
