signed into law a short—term spending bill after it successfully passed congress earlier. the bill is aimed at avoiding a government shutdown are keeping the lights on but only for another two months. he was the house speaker, the democrat nancy pelosi. and with this continuing resolution, we not only keep government open, keep checks flowing to our veterans and social security recipients and the rest, but it's about, again, whether it's science at the national institutes of health, the education of our children, the protection of our environment, it's just a remarkable thing to think of all good things that we can do working together for the people. shutdown avoided with hours to spare butjoe biden because my problems have not gone away. fellow democrats are struggling to agree on a plan to vote on his trillion dollar infrastructure proposal. progressive members of the democrats are refusing to vote until much bigger bill that would inject three and have trillion dollars into america's post pandemic economic recovery and kick—start the president's climate change reforms passes the senate. let's speak now to the senate. let's speak now to the congressional reporter for the congressional reporter for the guardian's us paper who joins us live from capitol hill. let's break this down because several issues are at play here. firstly, the government shutdown has been avoided. the government can continue to operate through until early december.- continue to operate through until early december. yes, so they managed _ until early december. yes, so they managed to _ until early december. yes, so they managed to avoid - until early december. yes, so they managed to avoid a - they managed to avoid a government shutdown with just hours to spare, passed through the senate this morning and thenit the senate this morning and then it came down to the house in the house also passed it with a bipartisan majority. it was subject to a lot of contentious debate in the weeks leading up to it because democrats wanted to prepare one of the other issues facing congress with this stopgap but they had to strip this out because republicans refused to back it and so they passed what is known as a continuing resolution that keeps the government funded through, as you said, to early december and includes funding for disaster relief. from our and wildfires as well as the afghan refugee resettlement programme. i am . lad resettlement programme. i am lad ou resettlement programme. i am glad you mentioned _ resettlement programme. i am glad you mentioned the - resettlement programme. i am glad you mentioned the debt ceiling because that is the second dish i wanted to come unto. that is a much more imminent deadline now. october 18 is the date by which congress has to approve, effectively, the ability to pay the interest due on debts that have already been accrued by the government. if they don't do that does this mean the us government would default on its debts. . , ., , , debts. that is absolutely ri . ht. debts. that is absolutely right. october _ debts. that is absolutely right. october 18 - debts. that is absolutely right. october 18 is - debts. that is absolutely right. october 18 is the l debts. that is absolutely - right. october 18 is the crunch date by which the us has to suspend the debt ceiling. treasury secretary has warned repeatedly over the last couple of weeks and months that congress must take action on the debt ceiling otherwise the us will default on $28 trillion of debt and the consequences of that would be really calamitous. it would involve potentially double digit unemployment in the us, trillions wiped from household income. interest rates would soar. american business loan rates would increase and it is an all round mega issue that congress really have to deal with and it really has been plagued by intransigence from republicans and democrats who are at an impasse at the moment because neither side can agree how to tackle it. there are democrats who say republican should join them and give them votes to raise the debt ceiling on a bipartisan basis because thatis on a bipartisan basis because that is what they did during the trump administration and republican should return the favour but they say no it should be done by a vote with republicans on the party line for responsibility and they don't want to be the one raising the debt limit. 50 don't want to be the one raising the debt limit. so on that issue. _ raising the debt limit. so on that issue, the _ raising the debt limit. so on that issue, the democrats l raising the debt limit. so on l that issue, the democrats can point to the republicans and say, hang on, you are creating an obstacle here and are not being supported but if we move onto the third matter the infrastructure bill, that is being held up by infighting within the democrats, it seems. you have got warring factions on both side of the house and senate but it is all intraparty among democrats and has been causing biden real problems. he came into office and on the campaign trail he was saying he wanted to have transformative change for the country and this is where you select biden and this is way shall elect democrats and this was in 2020 and he campaigned on this promise of energy and expanding health care to more americans and investing in infrastructure and investing in infrastructure and the fact of the matter is this has now been tied up because progressives in the house and moderate democrats in the house and senate cannot agree on the way forward. there are two bills at the moment. the bipartisan infrastructure bill which is around 0.5 trillion and the mega sprawling social spending package at 2.5 trillion. just run 200 jobs by me, actually. in a conference room, the white house and senate majority leader and the speaker are trying to agree on a path forward but none seem forthcoming at this point in the vote on one of the bills is due today. the vote on one of the bills is due today-— due today. we must leave it there. thank _ due today. we must leave it there. thank you _ due today. we must leave it there. thank you for - due today. we must leave itj there. thank you for making that make sense for us. the trio bill issues in congress. the british police officer who murdered sarah everard would die injail after murdered sarah everard would die injailaftera murdered sarah everard would die injail after a judge sentenced him to life in prison. wayne couzens pretended to arrest sarah in london in march during a covert lockdown. he handcuffed her, kidnapped her and then raped and killed her. herfamily were in court watching as he was sentenced. lucy manning reports. sarah everard was, thejudge said, simply walking home. for herfamily, nothing can make things better, nothing can bring sarah back, they said, but the rapist, murderer, policeman will never be released — and herfamily said that brings some relief. this moment, using his position of trust and privilege as a police officer to falsely arrest the 33—year—old, his arm out holding his warrant card, his use of handcuffs, persuaded thejudge he should die in prison. the misuse of a police role to murder a lone victim needed the greatest punishment. in the dock, couzens, as he had done throughout, kept his head down. he started shaking as thejudge sentenced him, with sarah's family looking on. lord justice fulford told wayne couzens, "you kidnapped, raped and murdered sarah everard, having long planned a violent sexual assault. you have eroded the confidence the public is entitled to have in its police forces. you have considerately added to the insecurity felt by people, perhaps particularly women. i have seen no evidence of genuine contrition." thejudge condemned his lies. his behaviour, calmly buying snacks after raping and murdering sarah and coolly letting his children play in the woods where he'd dumped her remains. should the police not have detected a murderer in their ranks? they admit they missed a check when vetting him that could have linked him to one of three indecent exposure allegations. how can women regain trust in the police now? this man has brought shame on the met. speaking frankly, as an organisation, we have been rocked. i absolutely know that there are those who feel their trust in us is shaken. there are no words that can fully express the fury and overwhelming sadness that we all feel about what happened to sarah. i am so sorry. no response to questions about whether she should resign. sarah everard lived her last hours in terror, but the final thoughts of herfamily are of a time before. in a statement, they said... their daughter never wanted to start a national debate about violence against women. she just wanted to get home safely. lucy manning, bbc news. in ecuador nearly 1000 police officers and army soldiers are involved in a major operation to try to regain control of a high security prison in the port city. at least 116 high security prison in the port city. at least116 inmates have been killed in a right which began on tuesday. south american correspondent has been the story. a dispute broke out earlier this week in and inmates called through a hole to another wing and attacked rival gang members. they are believed to be linked to powerful cartels vying for territory. ecuador has become a battle ground that the grit of cocaine trade as the grit of cocaine trade as the drug is smuggled from neighbouring countries

the british prime minister has told young campaigners that they have every right to be angry about the lack of action on climate change. boris johnson said he hopes the un climate change conference in glasgow in november could mark the beginning of the end of climate change. he was our science correspondent and her report contains flashing images. leaders came here to talk. but the criticism ringing in their ears is that when it comes to climate change, we've had far too much talk and nowhere near enough action. throughout this week's event, young climate activists — spearheaded by greta thunberg — moved from street protests to sharing the same room and the same stage with world leaders. there is no planet b, there is no planet blah. blah, blah, blah! today, they handed their proposals to those leaders, including a request to phase out fossil fuels entirely by 2030. in a couple of years, if this has to continue, if this chaotic approach to climate action has to continue, then we will lose our homes, we will lose our countries, we will lose our entire islands. the decisions that you make today have a lasting impactl on our lives for tomorrow, | so we need to see that our suggestions are being taken into consideration. - we do not wantjust climate action, we want climate justice action. what does climate justice mean to you? what's your message on that to leaders as they take over today? this means that we do notjust have privileged people explaining what they think about the climate crisis, but we're bringing marginalised voices. thank you, thank you very much... as politicians took over the stage today, borisjohnson couldn't resist an opportunity to repeat his catchy climate change slogan. it's coal, cars, cash and trees. coal, cars, cash and trees. but his message about the approaching un climate conference in glasgow is much more ambitious than we've heard before. we can make cop26 in november, which mario and i are working on, we can make it the beginning of the end, the beginning of the end of climate change. from the desperation of famine in madagascar, to fine wine producers here in italy trying to protect their livelihoods, the impacts of climate change are being felt everywhere. and as young delegates from all over the world head home, they hope their sense of urgency will be acted on. we're at a crossroads in history where we have to make a choice, not us but also the leaders. they have to make a choice of either standing and silently watching the future generations and their futures burn, or taking decisions right now for the securing of our collective future. securing that future will mean turning those words into action. victoria gill, bbc news, milan. a96 a 96 showed women who worked in a nazi concentration camp goes on the run to avoid a trial it for complicity in mass murder. in all russia's turmoil, it has never quite come to this. president yeltsin said the day would decide the nation's destiny. the nightmare that so many people have feared for so long is playing out its final act here. russians are killing russians in front of a grandstand audience. it was his humility which produced affection

celebrate the rebirth of europe's biggest and richest nation. this is bbc news. a reminder of our top story. the us congress votes to avoid a government shutdown but more tough negotiations lie ahead for president biden. facebook�*s global head of safety has defended the social media giant against accusations that its photo sharing app can negatively affect the mental health of young people. antigone davis gave testimony about child protection. the hearing comes two weeks after a leak exposed how instagram's own research found the platform could have a damaging impact on body image and self esteem. our correspondent is in los angeles for rise. it is interesting they've gone on the defensive. they have put the case against these accusations in the same week they delayed the roll—out of instagram kids because of these very same concerns. and as you mention this all centres on facebook�*s own research which suggested the potential harm from the instagram platform which facebook owns could extend to a mental health and body image issues particularly among young teenage girls. leading in some cases to suicidal thoughts. as you say, that move to create that face big kids platform is now been put on hold. the company says it will consult with policymakers in regard to getting that up and running. in terms of what the research showed they have been saying, is a company, it actually some claimed it helped them on certain issues. they say any more about that. that is from a senior facebook executive who was giving evidence to the senate subcommittee today and she said this could make help to help to give young people control over their lives and be helpful to them. that was not met with much sympathy, i might add one described the facebook research as accuse the company of a cover—up. it was likened to the cover—up conducted by the tobacco industry on the harmful events of cigarettes. there have been calls for facebook to release the full findings on the links between instagram and youth suicide and this is not an issue that is going away anytime soon because next week the same committee is due to hear from next week the same committee is due to hearfrom facebook whistle—blower who left the company with apparently tens of thousands of documents related to internal research on these and other matters. that person is due to give evidence on tuesday. thank you very for that. police in germany have arrested a 96 showed women who have failed to appear in court to face charges of complicity in mass murder. she left a care home near hamburg in a taxi hours before she was due to be taken to court. it's taken nearly 80 years to get to this moment, but this morning the elderly woman accused of complicity in mass murder didn't turn up for her trial. irmgard furchner, seen here as a young woman, had called a cab from her care home and disappeared before she was later arrested. it's a lifetime since she worked as a secretary at stutthof concentration camp. her lawyers argue she didn't know what really happened there. today, visitors are left to imagine the cruelty, the inhumanity, of the place. 65,000 people were murdered here — hanged, gassed, shot or simply left to succumb to the brutal conditions. i am convinced that she knew everything. because every order from the chief commander of the concentration camp went over her desk or she wrote it. justice has caught up with a number of low—ranking nazis in recent years. oscar groening, a guard at auschwitz, was convicted six years ago after a previous court allowed prosecutors to charge people like him and like former guard reinhold hanning. neither man ordered or committed mass murder, but by simply being part of the nazi machine, they were judged complicit. translation: it's very simple. if someone consciously contributes to systematic mass killings, that's legally relevant, regardless of whether it happened yesterday ora longtime ago. but germany's nazi—hunters are running out of time. state prosecutors are currently working on eight other cases before age and infirmity bring to a close this, the darkest chapter of german history. germany is still, in many ways, haunted by the horrors perpetrated in its name. these trials, a final opportunity to hear from the people who were there. it's aboutjustice, of course. it's also about delivering a public record and a warning. jenny hill, bbc news, berlin. he's being hailed as the rising star of the classical music world. 24—year—old randall goosby is a violinist who's determined to make classical music more inclusive. born to african—american and korean parents, his focus is on works that reflect black culture. earlier this month, he performed at the 20th anniversary of 9/11 at ground zero. now he's touring britain. mark savage has been to meet him. you violin prodigy randall goosby, in the welsh capital for the first show of his uk tour. his playing has been called profound, stylish, illuminating — not bad for someone who chose his instrument at random. i chose violin having not really seen or heard one before, to my memory. and did you find that you just understood the instrument instantly? i probably felt that way when i was a kid. of course, everyone learning to start the violin probably sounds a bit like a sick cat or something. at 13, he was the youngest ever winner of the prestigious sphinx prize, then studied under the renowned violinist itzhak perlman. but the music he's playing now champions black and african—american composers, a decision prompted by last yea r�*s black lives matter protests. i was feeling very, very sort of stuck, i was feeling useless and hopeless in the fight against systemic racism and prejudice and bias and all of these things. i didn't want to go out and march and protest. i just didn't feel like that was fulfilling. i needed something to validate what i was doing, you know? there was certainly the question of, "ok, whatam i doing, making a living playing works of, you know, dead european guys who haven't been around for a couple hundred years, who didn't know anything about my existence and didn't know anything about the existence of those who came before me?" this music answered that question. at the recent 9/11 memorial concert, he played one of those pieces — adoration by florence price. florence price, you know, had to pick up and move herfamily from her hometown of arkansas because of the segregation in the southern united states. to know that she was actually able to channel feelings of adoration, love and respect into her music is really profound. i hope that that was able to make it through to some of those who were mourning there on that day. randall's next goal is to help children in low—income communities discover these works. it's not any sort of inherent disinterest or distaste in classical music that keeps these communities from being involved. it's just the lack of access. an admirable ambition for a rising star. mark savage, bbc news, cardiff. don't forget, as ever, you can reach me on the team here on social media and you can find me on there. this is bbc news. thank you for watching. good morning. new month, but unfortunately not a new weather story. it looks likely that the beginning of october will be quite an autumnal, unsettled picture, with some rain at times. there will be some brighter interludes as well, but the winds certainly a feature, with plenty of leaves coming down off the trees over the next few days. now, as you can see, friday's weather will continue to see this frontal system moving in over the next few hours. it means first thing on friday morning, it still has yet to clear away from the south east. it will do so, and into the afternoon, we should see some sunshine coming through. so, a better second half to the day. there'll be plenty of frequent showers accompanied by a blustery wind on exposed west—facing coasts of scotland, northern ireland and north west england. temperatures ranging from 11—18 celsius. now, as we move out of friday into saturday, low pressure is anchoring itself up into the far north of scotland, and we've got another developing low pushing into the far south west. this is going to bring a spell of, yet again, wet and windy weather. it'll move in from the south west, gradually pushing its way steadily northwards. so, if you start the day dry, it's highly unlikely that you will finish the day dry because that rain is going to continue to push its way steadily north and east. maybe the far north east of scotland will see some brightness for much of the day. the winds picking up as well, gusts in excess of 45—50 mph on exposed coasts. that's going to make it feel disappointingly cool in the cloud, the wind and the rain. moving out of saturday into sunday, that frontal system still to clear away, and low pressure looks likely to park itself into the far north of scotland. the southern flank of the low, we could see the strongest winds, 50—60 mph gusts not out of the question. and that's where potentially the heaviest of the rain is likely to lie for the second half of the weekend. bright and breezy elsewhere, with a scattering of sharp showers on and off throughout the day. those temperatures, well, still on the disappointing side, and gates certainly are going to be more of a significant feature close to the area of low pressure. top temperatures on sunday once again between 12—16 celsius. monday into tuesday looks likely to stay with that showery theme, with some blustery winds as well from time to time. it's autumn good and proper. whatever you do, take care. the us senate has voted to avoid — the us senate has voted to avoid a _
