so much for being with us this evening. from where you sit, what is the problem that is causing the shortage? is it simply a shortage people want to be drivers all shortage of test places were a combination of factors? by, combination of factors? combination, actually. there's been a driver shortage a number of years and in recent years we have at brexit, so 40,000 eu drivers go back to europe. also an ageing workforce, certain ageing demographic not being replaced by young people. the recent recovery of surge in demand and a general trend to home—working, which puts more pressure on the sector, and during lockdown we lost 30,000 tests, which is about up to 17,000 less drivers going into the economy. and i understand from some of the interviews we have heard earlier in the day here on bbc news channel that actually the majority of people, the numbers who actually passed the test first time is not that great in the percentage and therefore quite a lot of those tests will be for people who won't pass this time and will have to go back into the system is that right, it is about 56%. into the system is that right, it is about 5696-— into the system is that right, it is about 56%. , _ , , about 56%. currently the system is uuite about 56%. currently the system is quite slow- — about 56%. currently the system is quite slow- if— about 56%. currently the system is quite slow. if you _ about 56%. currently the system is quite slow. if you need _ about 56%. currently the system is quite slow. if you need a _ about 56%. currently the system is quite slow. if you need a retest -

greatjobs and great opportunities in the profession. hagar opportunities in the profession. how do ou see opportunities in the profession. how do you see the _ opportunities in the profession. how do you see the picture between now and christmas? because a lot of people are anxious about the impact this is going to have on the christmas market in so many ways. i christmas market in so many ways. i think it is a worry. none of us are going to starve to death, that is the important thing, but there are likely to be shortages and issues. the things that are going to be in short supply, certainly, because the period from now to christmas is too short to tackle this problem impact. it is a medium to long solution. tony higgins, managing director at sp training, thank you. the government latest coronavirus figures show there were 35,623 new infections recorded in the 24 hours to friday morning. that means in the past week there was an average of 33,459 new cases per day. there were 7924 patients in hospital with covid on hundred and 80 new deaths recorded, people who have died within 28 days of receiving a positive test result and their death was recorded in the 24 hours until today. the average number of deaths per day in the last week as 143. on vaccinations 89% of the population over the age of 16 have had their firstjob and the number of people who have had both jabs is now at 82.1%. the united statesjustice department says it has reached a solution in the case of meng wanzhou. it has been reported that a deal will allow the executive from huawei to return to china. meng wanzhou has been forced to remain on canada for nearly three years now, after the us tried to extradite her to face charges of financial fraud in the united states. she has always maintained her innocence. this sunday will mark the beginning of the end of the political era in germany. federal elections take place which will eventually result in a new chancellor to replace angler merkel, who has been in office now for 16 years. it won't happen quickly, there are expected to be quite a period of may be weeks or months of coalition negotiations, but a whole generation of young germans will have known no other leader. one of the big issues of the election campaign has been climate change, with activists holding major rallies in cities across germany. our europe editor reports now and the campaign to succeed angela merkel. a mass protest come street party rallied outside parliament today to call attention to the climate crisis. it is a big election issue here. �* ., ~ ~ crisis. it is a

the climate the bringing —— climate change to the agenda, but i think there are limits to what she was able to do. i hope there will be a change, a more green change. of course, there's the potential for germany to take a dramatic new direction after 16 years of angela merkel, and that would be felt here and abroad. this is the eu's most influential country. but in the end, most germans are stability—hungry, so the calls for radical change, while loud, are limited. what we are probably looking at here is change but with a small c. these are the frontrunners to replace angela merkel. a social democrat the current favourite in polls, a conservative, and trailing behind, the green party candidate. all their campaigns have been exceptionally low—key. they feared alienating voters who will miss chancellor merkel. here she is with the conservative candidate. hers is a tough act to follow. here at home and on the world stage. she worked with four us presidents, five uk prime ministers, and went to 100 eu summits during her time in government. a reputation like angela merkel�*s takes a while to build. it can't be won overnight in an election. europe, that's what you see, they are kind of waiting literally for what's happening here. on the global landscape, i mean, it really matters, and i think merkel was a very well respected leader, so everybody is looking at who was going to follow in her footsteps. it might be a long wait. sunday's election is only the start. the vote is predicted to be tight, with drawn—out coalition talks to follow. the merkel era is almost over, but not quite. katya adler, bbc news, berlin. at seven 30p and you can join me again for dateline london, but first let's go to the bbc sport centre for sport news. hello! first to the ryder cup, where the usa have made an impressive start to the opening day at whistling straits in wisconsin, winning three of the four foursomes matches. our sports correspondent andy swiss was watching. it was certainly a pretty tough morning for the european players, although they did get off to a decent start, courtesy of the spanish duo ofjon rahm and sergio garcia, who beatjordan thomas and his partner to win the first part of the cup, a brilliant start from the two spaniards, jon rahm in particular with some terrific parts, but the big stars just didn't really fire this morning, most noticeably rory mcilroy and ian poulter, as they were high hopes for that pairing, so much experience and especially in this cup, but they got off pairing, so much experience and especially in this cup, but they got off to pairing, so much experience and especially in this cup, but they got off to a pairing, so much experience and especially in this cup, but they got off to a nightmare pairing, so much experience and especially in this cup, but they got off to a nightmare start, pairing, so much experience and especially in this cup, but they got off to a nightmare start, frankly, so a bad morning for michael roy and poulter. the other matches were a bit tighter, but still ended up going to the us. koepka and westwood beating daniel berger and matthew fitzpatrick. a poor start as well for... victor hoagland who was manning the european players here making his debut. so that meant the us took the morning session 3—1. if europe are looking for a bit of encouragement, they lost the morning session 3—1 at the last ryder cup in paris and of course they famously came back to win pretty convincingly, but certainly of this morning's session is anything to go by the europeans are going to be in for a pretty tough challenge. and a swiss air is at whistling straits. so the afternoon fourballs are now under way. usa up in two matches but very early stages. you can keep across it all on the bbc sport website. another huge sporting event taking place this weekend is the world heavyweight championship fight between anthonyjoshua and oleksandr usyk. the pair have weighed in ahead of the bout tomorrow night at the tottenham hotspur stadium. ukraine's usyk was at his heaviest ever weight for the fight, with britain's joshua still 20 pounds heavier. his wba, wbo and ibf titles are on the line. anthonyjoshua is probably at his optimal weight. we have seen him perform around 17 stone at his best in the past, so i am happy with natwest iliac weight for ajay. when he is too heavy gets a bit tired late on in the fight. oleksandr usyk, expected him to be heavy, but not this heavy. but not heavy to the point where i am thinking he has put on a bit of weight and is going to be slow and sluggish, he is probably at a new optimal weight, but let's not forget he is not a natural heavy weight as a professional, so there is a lot of an unknown quantity about oleksandr usyk, but anthony joshua needs to exploit him as a new heavyweight, uses and strength and put it on him early i think to get thejob done. red bull's max verstappen will start sunday's russian grand prix from the back of the grid as a result of a penalty for using too many engines this season. in second practice today, it was a mercedes one—two with valtteri bottas finishing quickest, just ahead of his team—mate lewis hamilton. verstappen's grid penalty gives hamilton and mercedes a golden opportunity to gain ground in the championship — the dutchman is five points ahead of hamilton heading into this weekend. that's all the sport for now. good evening. friday brought us another day with some warm september sunshine for many areas. it has been breezy with some spots of rain from northern areas, but through the course of the weekend, largely dry, still quite warm with some spells of sunshine around too, and that is down to the fact we have got our air coming from a south or south—westerly direction. this warm air mass still with us, and if we compare temperatures to average, they are around five or 6 degrees above average for many areas. contrast that to the colour change next week. by the middle of next week, temperatures will return to average or even a little bit below, by the middle of this coming week, but back to the here and now. and for the rest of this evening and overnight, places dry, quite a lot of cloud around. certainly won't be a cold night, with temperatures sticking mostly in the mid—teens, warm, humid air. just a bit cooler across the coast of scotland there. some rain to start saturday morning across the far north and north—west of scotland. one or two spots of drizzle lingering for the western isles. most places having a largely dry day. best of the sunshine will be for the likes of wales, parts of eastern england, eastern scotland too. temperatures in some spots, 20 or 23 degrees, looking at high teens or low 20s. into saturday evening, if you have plans for a barbecue, perhaps, could be the last nice saturday evening. most places should avoid the showers. it is looking quite warm into those evening hours as well. sunday looking a largely dry day with some sunny spells, one or two showers around perhaps in the west, the breeze picking up in the west ahead of this weather front that is going to move in by sunday evening. before it arrives, another very pleasant day for most of us with those temperatures in the low, possibly even the mid—20s — very high for this stage in september. as we head through sunday night, that is when it is going to be all change. it is this band of rain that sweeps its way eastwards, and that marks the arrival of autumn. into early next week, a colour change, the colder air moving in off the atlantic. it is looking rather unsettled from around monday onwards, still some sunny spells, blustery showers. do enjoy the fine weather over the course of the weekend. bye— bye.
