Hello and welcome to bbc news. The british foreign Secretary Liz Truss has defended the uks new Security Agreement with the united states and australia, which has caused a growing diplomatic row with france. The deal known as aucus will see australia given the technology to build nuclear powered submarines. Liz truss has said it will make the uk safer and protectjobs. But the french, whose own Submarine Deal with australia has been cancelled, are angry about that. Courtney bembridge reports. At the centre of this diplomatic row is an agreement with the us and the uk to give australia the technology to build a fleet of nuclear powered submarines. The problem is australia already had a Submarine Deal with france thats been torn up and france is furious duplicity. Been torn up and france is furious. There has been lying, duplicity, a major Breach Of Trust and contempt. This will not do things are not going well between us. And im with the president of france. Its hard to believe this was just a few months ago. France says it was blindsided by Australias Decision and Americas Involvement stung. A breach of contract, which is one thing, its a its a breach of Breach Of Trust, which is very important. And then its a worldwide humiliation. The french ambassador to canberra is on his way back to paris, along with the ambassador to the us. Im very sad to be forced to leave, but it needs to be some reassessment. The uk Foreign Secretary, Liz Truss, has defended the deal, saying it showed the uks readiness to be hard headed in defending its interests. But the french Foreign Minister has already dismissed the uks role, describing britain as the third wheel. This puts a big rift down the middle of the nato alliance, pushes france towards doing more with other european countries, puts britain very much in the camp of The Americans and in dealing with the indo pacific. But britain needs a functioning nato alliance. The row comes on the eve of a big un summit, joe biden� s first as president , and it threatens to overshadow his efforts to restore Americas Reputation on the world stage. Courtney bembridge, bbc news. Our political Correspondent Peter Saull is here tell Peter Saull is here us more about what the Foreign Secretary tell us more about what the Foreign Secretary has been seen. Liz truss was only appointed five days ago, she is the second woman to hold the role and she has written and article which on the surface is a fairly uncontroversial, the need to build freedoms and strong security ties but also a staunch defence of the agreement signed just last week with australia and the uk known as the aukus agreement, she says it is important to partner with light minded countries to build coalitions based on shared values but there is no mention of britains neighbours over the channel who as we heard are not best pleased with the agreement because it has literally cancellation they have signed with australia to supply subheadings. The french Foreign Minister says it is a major Breach Of Trust and he was also asked by the french had summoned australian and american ambassadors but not in the british, he said because the british are a fifth wheel, and relevance. Liz truss and borisjohnson are off to the united states where possibly this will come up again. The Un General Assembly gets off this week and it will be interesting to see what happens when rf Liz Truss comes up what happens when rf Liz Truss comes up against her french counterpart because she will be there with the uk prime minister, other topics will be discussed no doubt, the withdrawal from afghanistan as well the upcoming Cop 26 climate Change Conference in glasgow. Borisjohnson saying it is really important the whole world acts to tackle climate change, he has come up with a series of solutions to do that. Going back to the article the Foreign Secretary has written, is that any indication that britain wants to smooth things over with the french . There is no mention and there at all of the french, Liz Truss will be well of the huge row caused, that is interesting in itself and bear in mind there are french president ial elections in april next year so it is in the interest of senior french politicians to talk tough and play to a domestic audience and that is proper part of what is going on here but this is clearly caused a major diplomatic dispute between what traditionally have been very close partners. Thank you. The impact of soaring wholesale Gas Prices in the uk will be discussed at a series of meetings between the Government And Industry leaders over the coming days. The increase in the cost of gas has led to warnings of a Knock On Effect on food supplies. The Business Secretary Kwasi kwarteng says he will meet with industry figures to plan a way forward. Our Business Correspondent Katy austin reports. The reasons wholesale Gas Prices have soared include high demand and lower wind and solar generation. The Business Secretary had Meetings Yesterday with energy companies. High places have pushed small suppliers to the wall and there is concern more will follow as soon as next week. The record breaking price of international gas feeds through to the market and we have already seen Supplier Failures in recent weeks, partly as a consequence of that and the future of the market is difficult to tell whether there will be any more. The rising cost is a worry for steelmakers which need a lot of energy. Another Knock On Effect is a shortage of Carbon Dioxide, a By Product when fertiliser is produced and two large Uk Plants which make it have closed. The owner of one large Poultry Group which includes Bernard Matthews called the Carbon Dioxide issue a massive body blow, it is used by Meat Producers and the packaging process. C02 is used to extend Shelf Life and packaging and to lose Shelf Life on products is going to cause even more disruption so this is a really serious problem for us. The rising price of gas is being felt by businesses, it is likely to feed through to consumers at a time when the Cost Of Living is rising. The Business Secretary insists britain can meet demand for gas and the government does not expect Supply Problems this winter, he says there will be further meetings with the industry to try and plan a way forward.

You know, being in my mid 40s, you think, oh, no, wouldnt you have loved it in your 30s or whatever . But i dont think i would have been able to cope with the sharp upturn and i certainly know i wouldnt have been able to play this character, rebecca felton, who has so many different layers to her, so manyjoyous things, but so many upsets to overcome. So, yeah, strangely enough, the universe knows what its doing. I think thats what its all about. Embracing change.

And it remains to be seen if anything happens after that. And the story that you set out to tell, does that involve a happy ending maybe with Ted And Rebecca . Wow, interesting. Im going to.

On saturday, a man stunned the crowds as he walked along a rope 70 metres above the ground in paris. 0ur correspondent Tim Allman has the story. Sometimes, the only question that needs to be asked is, why . There in the distance, a man walks through midair, suspended on a 600 Metre Stretch of elasticated webbing. His starting point, one of the most famous places on earth. Translation it was great, its really beautiful starting from the Eiffel Tower. Its a world renowned place, one that im aware of the view from the ground, and discovering it from above, its really beautiful. Nathan paulin is a slackliner a bit like Tightrope Walking except the rope is looser, bouncier, a sort of long, narrow trampoline. And he doesntjust walk he sits, he lies down, even hangs around for a bit. For the spectators on the ground, it was quite a sight. Imagine what it was like for nathan. Translation when i was young, i had vertigo and i learned to contain it. During the performance, i really didnt feel it. I really didnt have a fear of heights. I felt some stress over starting it, but no vertigo, no. In case you were wondering, he was wearing a safety line, just to be careful. And, after 30 minutes orso, his Midair Odyssey came to an end. Easy. As long as you dont look down.
