Hello and welcome. Britain, the us and australia have launched a new Defence And Security partnership, with plans to develop a fleet of nuclear powered submarines for the australian navy. Boris johnson says the project will be crucial in the protection of the allies shared interests in the Indo Pacific region, as our Defence Correspondent Jonathan Beale reports. Britain Aircraft Carrier hms Queen Elizabeth and other Britain And America will help australia, but not where the nuclear submarines. Australia had originally asked france to modernise its submarines but the deal is now dead. It isnt yet clear how the work will be shared, but britain hopes it will be boosting its defence industry. The system already builds the submarines and the nuclear reactors. Officials insist the Defence Partnership Isnt a response to any one country but about Stability And Security in at the Indo Pacific. It will not be welcomed by china. Im joined now by our correspondent Shaimaa Khalil who is in sydney. How important is this to australia in particular . It how important is this to australia in particular . It is a big Deal Australia in particular . It is a Big Deal For Australia in particular . It is a big deal for Australia Australia in particular . It 3 a Big Deal For Australia and a a big Dealfor Australia and a substantial boost to its defence capabilities. It is also a substantial and significant step by the united states and the uk. This is a clear message of how seriously they take the Security And Stability in the Indo Pacific and the positioning of australia as a strategic partner in that making sure that the us, the americas and written� s interest in the region are well defended. In a separate Press Conference earlier we heard from the prime Minister Scott Morrison who said that this is a game changing technology for game changing technology for game changing developments that he says will enter a new era with new challenges. He also said that the relatively benign environment that this invite region has enjoyed is now behind it. He described the announcement as a Forever Partnership that will ensure that Australias Security that also the security of partners in the region is well defended. So a big step and a significant clear message from the three countries towards protecting their interests in the Indo Pacific. With the rising influence of china. And the X Ofthe Influence of china. And the x of the Announcement Influence of china. And the x of the announcement and of the announcement and aligning that message as well. The x of the announcement were just as important as the announcement itself, the fact that all three leaders appeared together, Joe Biden Boris Johnson and Scott Morrison altogether via video link, that definitely sends a message. And even though it says it is not a targeted response to any particular country, there is very little doubt that china and its Growing Influence in the region is at the heart of this. So a nuclear powered Submarine Fleet, australian Submarine Fleet, australian Submarine Fleet, australian Submarine Fleet in the region could be a key asset for both the uk and the united states. Remember as well the dynamics between china and australia, on the other side, the fact that there is a growing tension between the two countries and a rivalry between the us and china sharpening and the alliance between the us and australia grows you can expect that relationships will grow between australia and its strategic trade ally, Trade Partner that is china.

Four us gymnasts gave emotional testimony to congress on wednesday, describing the abuse they suffered at the hands of usa Gymnastics Doctor Larry nassar. They blamed fbi officials forfailing to investigate him. Their testimony led by olympic superstar Simone Biles follows a damning Justice Department Report into how the fbi handled the nassar allegations. Nasser was jailed in 2018. The bbc� s Nomia Iqbal has more. The world witnessed her mental struggles at the tokyo olympics. Today, Simone Biles spoke about exactly what had impacted her. I dont want another young gymnast, olympic athlete, or any individual to experience the horror that i and hundreds of others have endured. The most successful gymnast of all time, she recalled the abuse she suffered at the hands of her former coach. To be clear, i blame larry nassar, and i also blame. An entire system that enabled and perpetrated his abuse. Simone biles and three of Herformer Team mates appeared in front of the senatejudiciary committee to testify about the abuse they suffered at the hands of nassar. Hes serving a Life Sentence in jail for sexually abusing hundreds of girls. An investigation into how the fbi handled the case has already catalogued failures and lies told by Agents None of whom have been prosecuted. Mckayla maroney was one of the first to report abuse in july of 2015. I answered all of their questions honestly and clearly, and i disclosed all of my molestations i had endured by nassar to them in extreme detail. She said she felt, even when she had finally spoken out, her concerns were being dismissed. I began crying at the memory over the phone, and there wasjust dead silence. I was so shocked at the Agents Silence and disregard for my trauma after that minute of silence, he asked, is that all . It would be more than a year before the fbi investigated the allegations, allowing nassar to continue his contact with children. Today, the fbi director, who took the top agencyjob after the case was reported, said sorry. And im especially sorry that there were people at the fbi who had their own chance to stop this monster back in 2015 and failed. And that is inexcusable, it never shouldve happened, and were doing everything in our power to make sure it never happens again. A report by the Department Ofjustice found two fbi officials lied during interviews to cover up their errors. The fbi says one of those officials was fired last week. This hearing is the first public questioning of the case, but also one of the last opportunities for the athletes to getjustice. They have called on the committee to ensure those who mishandled the case will be held accountable. Nomia iqbal, bbc news, washington.

Borisjohnson is preparing to change britains middle ranking ministers, after completing a sweeping Cabinet Reshuffle that sets the tone for the years ahead. The first all civilian Space Mission has taken off ca tta I Cattai will stage the next World Cup, but there are allegations that workers are forced to live and die in appalling conditions. One blogger shared his experience with the world that is until he was unmasked as a canyon security guard, thrown into Solitary Confinement, given a huge fine and deported, so in an exclusive interview, our bbc africa correspondent, Cathering Byaruhanga met with him to talk about what Solitary Confinement is really like. It was tricky, hard. Nothing really prepares you for it, you know. Being alone in a tiny space, confined space, the first place i was was a tiny, tiny room. It was the walls were padded like an asylum, it had a small button like an intercom, i had to use that to ask for water, go to the bathroom, that kind of thing. All the way through, there was interrogation back and forth, back and forth, which was really disorientating. They just kept asking the same questions over and over again. Also, the fear, you know, of, i might never make it out of here, you know . So that was something constantly on my mind like, this is it, this is it. How did you make it out . I was visited by people who entered that people were fighting for me on the outside, and a bunch of organisations and a bunch of organisations and everyone was coming together, so i think that gave me hope. What shocked you most about your experience . The biggest thing would have to be the living conditions. The company had no regard for welfare, no regard for workers living conditions, so theyjust crammed as much. As many people as they like in a room, six, ten, eight, 12. What you are experiencing is experienced by so many others, so how do you find your voice . How did you decide to start writing about this consistently . I have a Writing Journals about my experiences and make conditions, life, everything, and Somebody Saw it and they said, would you mind if we used this as an article . Long story short, that article got a lot of traction and almost immediately, changes were implemented to all living conditions, so that opened my eyes. You mean to tell me, if i speak about something it can change . So it was a No Brainer for me, so that is how i got into it. The qatari government has been under a lot of pressure under the Run Up to the cup two improve the lives of migrant workers, so they will say that they have made some changes. There is a basic minimum wage, workers can change theirjobs much easier, so have you seen those benefits on the ground . By those benefits on the ground . By the time i was leaving, people were still in their jobs, still faced a lot of difficulty even approaching the Ministry Of Labour or filing a complaint, all of that. The minimum wage, some companies were still not implementing that so i think that thats just on paper. Considering all of the complaints about Human Rights Abuses in qatar do you think people should be boycotting the World Cup next year i dont think boycotting is a solution because i think it will result in retaliation, and the people who will fill it either migrant workers. I think what helps is just, like, more cooperation between the government and other players, and all of that. That was Malcolm Bidali speaking about his experience. Now lets bring you all of the latest sports news. Hello, im gavin and this is the latest from the bbc sports centre. We start with football, and goals galore on the second night of European Champions league action, but there was no joy for Lionel Messi on his European Debut for Paris Saint germain, as they were held to a 1 1 draw at belgian side club brugge. Ander herrera put the parisians ahead in the first half before Hans Vanaken levelled soon after, and thats how the score stayed, messi cutting a frustrated figure throughout. It was raining goals at the etihad stadium. English Premier League champions Manchester City beat Rb Leipzig 6 3. City had too much firepower for the german side. Nathan ake got the first, with riyad mahrez, jack grealish, Joao Cancelo and gabrieljesus also on the scoresheet for city. I think the game was tight, in terms of good, we were fortunate that every time they scored a goal, we scored immediately. They scored, we scored, and that helped us to become where we are at the time. And jordan hendersons long Range Volley was the difference for liverpool, who got the better of milan at anfield. They were 2 1 down at half time, after two quick goals from Ante Rebic and Brahim Diaz put the italian side ahead. Mo salah equalised hed earlier missed a penalty before Hendersons Goal gave liverpool a 3 2 victory. We made hard work of the game, you know, but we need to give good credit to the side, they were good players. When you arent quite having a spell in the game, you get punished at this level and they did that. But, i thought the boys reacted so well in the second half. We went through some finer details at half time that could help us Go Out In The Second Half and put it right but, yes, we kept going, and managed to find a couple of goals to win the game. Overall, we are delighted with the result. Thats like a sport. The first all civilian Space Mission has taken off in florida, with four amateur astronauts launching into orbit on a Spacex Rocket.

Autumn is now gently, slowly but surely, creeping in across the northern hemisphere. Our days are getting shorter, but there is still some warmth in the september sunshine. And certainly, it was a good looking day across a large swathe of the uk on wednesday, although scotland and Northern Ireland did get lumbered with more in the way of cloud and some outbreaks of rain. We should see more sunshine here, though, in the next few days. Another sign, though, that autumn is upon us is the presence of some early Morning Mist and fog. The Reason Itll be drier for Scotland On Thursday is high pressure starting to extend up here. Its also the reason, though, that i think we will see some early Mist And Fog under the ridge where weve had light winds overnight. The sun, however, should burn that back pretty quickly, and then a lot of fine Weather And Sunshine to come through on thursday. We lose any early showers in the northeast of scotland, temperatures 21 22 celsius. Through the afternoon, though, more cloud starting to show its hand into Northern Ireland thats the forerunner of this Weather Front that will push Into The West of the uk for friday daytime. We move through Thursday Evening into the small hours of friday, and we get the rain into Northern Ireland. Its quite patchy across western scotland, it stays dry across england and wales. A mild enough night, temperatures in double figures up to 15 degrees in belfast, where we get quite a strong southerly wind as this Weather Front pushes in. It will move its way Into The West of the uk, but then it kind of grinds to a halt, actually, for friday. So, because it does that, that means the Rain Willjust keep on coming for the likes of Northern Ireland, possibly for the southwest of scotland. Later on in the day, some downpours for the southwest of england and for wales. But its Northern Ireland stuck under the cloud and with the rain on friday. Quite breezy here, as well, quite gusty winds at times. Big contrast between East And West just mid teens, the temperatures in the west under the rain. We could still see maybe 22 23 celsius in the sunshine further east. Our front will gradually make its way eastwards across the uk through the weekend. For scotland and Northern Ireland, i think itll bring some patchy cloud. But for england and wales, it does bring the threat of perhaps some quite punchy showers, longer, more persistent outbreaks of rain at times. Certainly, saturday looks like it could be quite wet across england and wales. The showers should thin out somewhat for sunday.
