woman will have to make for herself. calls to evacuate as fire in honduras destroys thousands of homes. and the wait is almost over for the london the british prime minister has promised to change and improve the uk economy after coronavirus ahead of the conservative party conference in manchester. borisjohnson says he cannot go back — might the country cannot go back — might the country cannot go back to the way things were before the pandemic. iain watson reports. getting on with thejob — that's one of the conservative conference's slogans — an attempt to portray the prime minister as a man of action. the other, more familiar, slogan is build back better. borisjohnson insists that after the pandemic, life will notjust return to normal but will be much improved. and for him, every cloud has a silver lining. he says he wants to see a high—wage and high—skill economy, and much in—demand hgv drivers could be the first to benefit. what we don't want to do is go back to a situation in which we basically allowed the road haulage industry to be sustained with a lot of low—wage immigration that meant that wages didn't go up and facilities, standards, the quality of the job didn't go up. so the weird thing is now that people don't want to go into the road haulage industry, don't want to be lorry drivers, precisely because we've had that massive immigration approach and held wages down, held the quality of the job down. but businesses see rain clouds over his sunlit uplands. some companies are worried that higher wages will lead to higher costs and higher prices. there won't be too many detailed policy announcements this week — the conference will be more about the direction of travel. but travel is not exactly straightforward at the moment with fuel still difficult to obtain in some parts of the country. and soon, families will be facing higher energy bills and higher taxes, so some conservative mps who won seats from labour in 2019 are less concerned with a vision of the future and more worried about the here and now. of the future and more worried but there will be an announcement that will please the party's grassroots. assuming you actually managed to fill your fuel tank, you might have been unlucky enough to fall victim to climate change protests which have closed the m25. so the prime minister and home secretary will announce tough new laws which could see protesters go to prison for six months or face unlimited fines. this week, the prime minister will seek to reassure his party members that his priorities are those of the voters and that he is prepared to take what he describes as big, bold decisions to deliver on them. iain watson, bbc news, manchester. what can we expect from boris johnson? what you think the tone of this conference will be? it is interesting. borisjohnson comes to this conference probably as powerful as he has ever been as prime minister and after the pandemic as you head on the peace there and you can see in the slogans behind me he was the top all about delivery and getting on about some of the policies like levelling up and moving some of the different levels of wealth across the uk and some of them away from london but at the same time although that is what he wants to talk about there are some very different themes in the news at the moment. ian touched on some of them in his piece there. you have a lot of talk about energy prices going up and that's affecting in particular low income families. and you have a lot of people in the south of england worrying if they can fold up their cars and you have the universal credit uplift coming to an end and furlough and a lot of conservatives say this is an economic opportunity to get the jobs market moving again and getting things back properly the way they were before the pandemic. i suspect many of our viewers will also be wondering about the cost of living and many conservative mps here over the next few days nervous about the cost of living. although boris johnson will i'm sure strike a bullish tone this morning and over the next few days i'm sure his party will be in a similar place as well. there are those nerves as well over what happens over the next few months. add in inflation to the mix and you have potentially got the perfect storm that could make life quite challenging for a lot of people. so optimistic tories here in manchester but also somewhat nervous about exactly how winter will pan out. the rest of the week you will be getting on with it is the slogan says. thank you very much. anyone approached by a lone police officer in scotland will now be offered the chance to speak with control room staff to check their identity. the new system has been introduced since sarah everard was murdered by a serving police officer. when wayne couzens kidnapped, raped and murdered sarah everard, he was a serving metropolitan police officer. he used his position to trick sarah into a car he had hired by showing her his warrant card and falsely arresting her. after he was sent to prison for life, the met commissioner spoke outside the old bailey. 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. police forces across the country are now looking at ways to reassure the public and restore trust. the metropolitan police said people stopped by a lone plain—clothes officer should challenge their legitimacy, but many wonder why it should be up to the public to ask the questions. police scotland has now issued new advice for its force. under the new process, if a lone officer approaches a member of the public, they will proactively offer an identity check. the officer's personal radio will be put on loudspeaker, allowing control room staff to confirm they are who they say they are. and if a lone officer becomes involved in an incident, they will call 999 and allow the member of the public to speak directly to control room staff. police scotland said the force recognised the understandable public concern about the horrendous murder of sarah everard and the onus was on them to provide reassurance to women in particular. helena wilkinson, bbc news. the speaker of the house of commons sir lindsay hoyle has asked for an urgent meeting with the metropolitan police to discuss how wayne couzens was deployed as an armed officer in parliament. the force has confirmed that sarah everard's rapist and killer had worked sir lindsay said that security was his number one priority and that it raised questions about police vetting procedures. death other very prominent international figure, death other very prominent internationalfigure, the death other very

rubbish has been piling up and rotting on the streets and even and rotting on the streets and even a wild boar had been spotted roaming the city. . in terms of the political significance what would you say it is likely to be? local elections can have lots of motives, locomotives. why are national politicians looking at these so anxiously? they were wild boars, not she wills. these are local elections but they are significant and they are a gauge of which way the country is heading in terms of national politics. this is the 1st electoral test of italians since the former european central bank president took over as president earlier this year. it is a grand coalition that includes the far right populist anti— european firebrand and his party. about 2 years ago he was on the brink of becoming prime minister and taking national power and becoming the 1st major western european country to look to the far right. he has now been brought into this mainstream national unity coalition government and his party has suffered partly because of that. he will be looking very closely and i think italian observers will be looking very closely to see whether the far right has been depleted because of this unity government. but also local elections are important because they give a platform to parties to shine, to build support and the national elections are less than 2 years away. how are your bins in rome? they are absolutely terrible. i have lived in belgrade, paris, athens, istanbul, london, this is absolutely the worst city in terms of rubbish collection that i've ever lived in. i think that it is something that unless you know rome just know about. the bins are overflowing, there is a hopeless bin collection service year. and when i spoke to the a couple of weeks ago who is blamed for the terrible buildup of rubbish, dash—mac mayor, she said the inherited 13 years of rubbish disputes and there are known to be disputes and there are known to be disputes the city and the region over the collection but the terrible decay of rome and the potholes on the roads and the buildup of rubbish and the fact that wild boar drawn through the rush's and more than 20 buses have got fire because a mechanical problems, that adds to the problems in the capital at least. more than 40,000 runners are taking part in the london marathon today with another 40,000 running the event

more than one million people losing their green pass the vaccination status document that allows free movement in public places including restaurants, museums and schools. it's after the health
