The argument you will hear all week from ministers is that wages are rising. But taxes are, too, and thats not something many tories welcome.

Being dependent on cheap foreign labour, and that workers here will start to feel better. But gusts are rising, and taxes are going up, and nobody knows how long the disruption to the supply chain will go on for, or how bad it is going to get. 0pponents say Boris Johnson has a habit of not preparing properly. He will need a watertight plan for the months ahead. Nick, you have come inside from the rain. , , , , rain. Yes, we have. It is pouring out there rain. Yes, we have. It is pouring out there so rain.

The mayorfor the tees valleyjoins me. Thank you for speaking to us. We have heard a lot in the last few days about Energy Prices going up, fuel prices going up, the end of universal credit uplift, the end of the furlough.

The Energy Crisis that is rescinding. The Energy Crisis will that is rescinding. The Energy Crisis will be overblown and i think We Witt Crisis will be overblown and i think we will see crisis will be overblown and i think we will see that alleviate over the coming we will see that alleviate over the coming weeks and months and then the government coming weeks and months and then the government can get on with its levelling government can get on with its Levelling Up Agenda.

To raise the lowest wages up out of poverty, make sure that wage growth is happening, and we need to create better is happening, and we need to create better quality jobs is happening, and we need to create better qualityjobs and attract more inward better qualityjobs and attract more inward investment especially in places inward investment especially in places like the north of england, and all places like the north of england, and all of places like the north of england, and all of that will alleviate some of the and all of that will alleviate some of the rising costs. But some of those of the rising costs. But some of those costs might not be as stark as being those costs might not be as stark as being made those costs might not be as stark as being made out, but that doesnt mean being made out, but that doesnt mean we being made out, but that doesnt mean we should not be concentrating on it mean we should not be concentrating on it.

On universal credit, when the| Prime Minister makes his big speech on wednesday, thats the day that this uplift that many people have been getting for the last 18 months will end. It is £20 out of many peoples pockets every week. Do you think now is right time to do that . During the pandemic i was one of those during the pandemic i was one of those people that was very public in saying those people that was very public in saying that the Prime Minister shoutd saying that the Prime Minister should not be taking away the £20 uplift, should not be taking away the £20 uplift, but should not be taking away the £20 uplift, but we have spent more than £400 uplift, but we have spent more than £400 billion on the pandemic response, furlough, all the other support response, furlough, all the other support we have given to businesses and individuals and at some point we need to and individuals and at some point we need to step that bag and bring dashmac need to step that bag and bring dash mac bring Public Finances back. We are dash mac bring Public Finances back. We are starting to see increased employment, record vacancies, so now is probably employment, record vacancies, so now is probably the right time. But we always is probably the right time. But we always have to keep a close eye on it. Always have to keep a close eye on it the always have to keep a close eye on it. The government has announced a package it. The government has announced a package to it. The government has announced a package to replace that £20 drop off and there package to replace that £20 drop off and there will be a transition away from and there will be a transition away from that and there will be a transition away from that uplift, but it is about creating from that uplift, but it is about creating jobs, from that uplift, but it is about creatingjobs, putting from that uplift, but it is about creating jobs, putting more money in peoples creating jobs, putting more money in peoples pockets and thats the best way to peoples pockets and thats the best way to take people out of poverty. It is way to take people out of poverty. It is not way to take people out of poverty. It is not a way to take people out of poverty. It is not a transition, it is an end and it ends quite abruptly next week. There is also this question about whether people can afford more tax and National Insurance will go up tax and National Insurance will go up in the next few months, and that will hurt a lot of people. Do you think the Prime Minister needs to go further in assuring the public that there are not going to be more tax rises over the next few months and years .

In terms of the broader i political question, you represent a part of the north of england that is not traditionally tory. You have got many colleagues who won in 2019, who were not from traditional tory areas. How do you keep them, and are you worried that, if The Cost Of Living really bites in the next few months, that a lot of people who voted tory for the first time in 2019 might think it was a mistake . 0ne 2019 might think it was a mistake . One of the things ive been saying all morning is that government now need to all morning is that government now need to focus on the thing they they were elected for, the Levelling Up Agenda were elected for, the Levelling Up Agenda. We have had a pandemic and it is right agenda. We have had a pandemic and it is right the government focused on that. It is right the government focused on that, but now if we want to get reetected on that, but now if we want to get re elected and stay in government we need to re elected and stay in government we need to show people that levelling up need to show people that levelling up is working. Those are physical benefits up is working. Those are physical benefits with big infrastructure, more benefits with big infrastructure, more inward investment, betterjob opportunities. The prior minister has talked opportunities. The prior minister has talked about wage growth. As lon has talked about wage growth. As long as has talked about wage growth. As long as people can see that those things long as people can see that those things are long as people can see that those things are moving in the right direction things are moving in the right direction. Those votes are linked, its not direction. Those votes are linked, its not a direction. Those votes are linked, its not a solidified conservative votes. Its not a solidified conservative votes. But its not a solidified conservative votes, but if people do want to vote conservative again, they want to be proven conservative again, they want to be proven right and we have got to give them proven right and we have got to give them the proven right and we have got to give them the reason to do that and that is why them the reason to do that and that is why levelling up will work for us. ~ , , , us. We will return to some more Concrete Definitions us. We will return to some more Concrete Definitions of us. We will return to some more Concrete Definitions of levelling l us. We will return to some more l Concrete Definitions of levelling up over the next few days. Thank you for talking to us. I suppose it is part of the bigger debate that is going on in the conservative party, which is exactly what they do to manage The Cost Of Living crisis that some are predicting over the next few weeks and months. One thing that struck me this morning when we heard that a long interview from the Prime Minister is he was reacting a lot to events. He was not necessarily setting out a big, broad agenda for the next few weeks and months so it will be interesting to see whether the conservatives spend the next few days reacting to things like the fuel crisis, the Rising Energy costs and various other questions over The Cost Of Living, or whether they can get a bit more on the front foot. Or whether they can get a bit more on the front foot. Events, dear boy, events as one on the front foot. Events, dear boy, events as one former on the front foot. Events, dear boy, events as one former prime on the front foot. Events, dear boy, | events as one former Prime Minister once said. Nick, thank you. More now on the fallout of the murder of Sarah Everard and the sentencing of her killer Wayne Couzens, and in scotland anyone approached by a lone Police Officer will now be offered the chance to speak with Control Room Staff to check their identity. Helena wilkinson has more details. 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 officers 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. Police investigating the murder of lara mckee have charged a 53 year old man. She was shot dead in derry in april 2019 as she was observing rioting in the city and three men have already been charged with her murder, and anotherfought with her murder, and anotherfought with rioting and associated offences.

The Taliban In Afghanistan say a blast outside a mosque in the Capital Kabul has killed at least two people. 8.

Caliban Officials Say i this explosion happened outside or very close to one of the biggest mosques in afghanistan and there was plans to hold a Memorial Service for the late mother of the taliban � s spokesperson. She passed away last week. In fact, the caliban had announced this Memorial Service a day earlier dash mac taliban. This has come as a shock for taliban officials because it is a major attack on a gathering called by the taliban and we understand that several people have been killed and injured, and a number of people have been admitted to hospital. Some eyewitness accounts said there was gunfire soon after the blast. So this has come as a big surprise and shock for the taliban, who have been trying to assert their authority over afghanistan in the last six weeks after they seized power in mid august. Now this is a wake up call even for the taliban, even though group has admitted responsibility for this blast. In the past, the Islamic State group have carried out similar attacks. Thank you for bringing us up to date on that.

Another 40,000 competing virtually. The event had been cancelled last year because of coronavirus. Earlier our correspondent laura scott spoke to olympic gold medallist james cracknell, who was one of todays runners. It was an amazing day. Bits in the middle werent the most fun ive ever had in my life, butjust. People supporting and so many people running, people having to train on their own and then coming through, it was really special and also a real sign that the country is getting back to normal. I know you were running for headway, a cause close to your heart, how important was it for you to run for them today . I work closely with them and they have been incredibly helpful to me when i suffered a nasty accident, a traumatic brain injury and helping victims and their families to come to terms with any changes and how to move on and it helps so many people every year. And to run and raise a bit of awareness about it, it was a fantastic thing. How was the atmosphere on the course, i know that participants were limited to one spectator each, but was there the normal London Marathon atmosphere out there today . Yes, and what is really special is that people come down and support their partner, their mate or the charity that they are running for, but then people stay and cheer on every runner, and if they have a name on it, they get shouts and it is a really positive experience. The new york marathon, it is very nice to run around manhattan, but its not the same atmosphere on the streets as here, where there is a communal spirit and it was really special today, of all years. James cracknell the speaking to laura scott. Authorities on la palma have said the volcano has blown open to new fishes. Almost two weeks after the first eruption, our correspondent is on the island. The weekend chores now begin, with a clearing endless volcanic dust. He only moved to four months ago, but he is not letting this relentless Eruption Weigh too heavily. Translation is true there is uncertainty now, but this will be over and people will be stronger, and they will start again and push this island forward. La palma � s coastline is pushing forward, into the atlantic as lava hits the sea and sets hard. Satellite pictures show how it has sliced through the island. Some of the british scientist here as part of the International Team are monitoring gas levels and tracking fresh streams of lava from new vents that have opened up. Thats why thousands of people are still being kept from their homes, while many thousands more have been told to stay in and keep windows closed, safe from the gases.

Secondary School Pupils across the uk have started to get their covid jabs. The vaccine is being offered to 12 to 15 year olds. 0rganisers expect well over half of them to take up the offer. 0ur social affairs correspondent, fiona lamdin, went to a school in Weston Super Mare to see the rollout in action. Normally these 12 year olds are here for pe, today they are here for their covid jabs. My whole family has done it. My mum and my stepdad have done it. It can be safer for them because there is flu going around. Itjust helps keep everyone else safe. The reason why i wanted to have the covid jab is because my mum has already had two and she says it is not painful. I want to make sure i am safe around everyone. To keep my Community Safe from, like, being hurt and stuff. The Team Carrying out the vaccinations dont want us to film the actual process, but the covid jabs are being given behind this screen. And for the first time ever, over at this station they are offering the nasal flu spray to older children in years eight, nine, 10 and 11. Yes, we welcome anything that helps us to keep schools open and keep children attending. We are really clear families need to make informed choices as to whether the vaccination is right for them. They only started vaccinations in mainstream schools this week but already take up looks high. It is early days at the moment but the Consent Process allows us to get some idea of how many children are going to go forward for vaccination. We are aiming for 85 of children and at the moment we are really hopeful we will achieve that. The take up is looking very good currently and more than we expected. Back in school, these year 8s have just had theirs. How was it . Not so bad. It was good but it hurt a little bit when you get the needle in your arm. It only pinches a little bit. You have to wait 15 minutes because that isjust the rule. Are you pleased you have had it done . Yes, so you can be with friends. Very best friends. So we can go out and be more safe. If we do get it, we have more chance of surviving. The team behind this roll out hopes these vaccinations will be finished by mid november. All right, lets get a look at the weather forecast. We have still got quite a blustery wind out there. That has been bringing a mixture of sunshine and showers. A view showers making their way into eastern areas, but still most are in the west. More showers continuing through this evening and overnight, but sickly across more southern parts of england and wales. It will stay milder will stop where we have clear skies further north, in North Eastern scotland, temperatures down to four or five celsius. More sunshine to come, but also more showers and not as windy as today. The bulk of the showers will be in the west with Sunniest Skies towards the east. Temperatures similar to today, but across wales and the south west it will be cooler because of increasing cloud in the afternoon, and much better by the evening. An area of low pressure will bring wet and windy weather across many parts on tuesday. It may brighten up across more southern parts of england. Missing most of the rain in northern ireland. Quite a cool day under the wind and rain, typically only 13 celsius. Hello, this is bbc news. The headlines.
