safeguard freedom of expression, which is a precondition for democracy and lasting peace. maria and dmitry are receiving the piece prize for their courageous fight for freedom of expression in the philippines and in russia. at the same time, they are representatives of all journalists who stand same time, they are representatives of alljournalists who stand up for this ideal in a world in which democracy and freedom in the press face increasingly adverse conditions. maria uses freedom of expression to expose abuse of power, use of violence and growing authoritarianism in her native country, the philippines. in 2012 she co—founded a digital media company for investigated journalism which she still heads. as a journalist and the ceo of that company, ressa has shown herself to be a fearless defender of freedom of expression. she has focus critical attention to the duterte regime's merger anti—drug campaign. the number of deaths is so high that the campaign resembles a war waged against the population of the country. —— murderous anti—drug campaign. maria ressa and her organisation had documented how social media is being used to spread fake news and manipulate the public discourse. dmitry muratov has for decades defended freedom of speech in russia under increasingly challenging conditions. in 1993 he was one of the founders of an independent newspaper. since 1995 he has been the newspaper's editor in chief for a total of 2a years. novaya gazeta is the most independent newspaper in russia today with a fundamentally critical attitude towards power. it's back to base journalism and professional integrity have made it an important source of information on sensible aspects of russian society rarely mentioned by other media —— it's fact —based journalism. since it started in 1993, novaya gazeta has published critical articles on subjects ranging from corruption, police violence, unlawful arrests, electoral fraud and trial factories and the use of russian military forces both within and outside russia. novaya gazeta's opponents have responded with harassment, threats, violence and murder. since the newspaper's starch, six of which journalists have been killed, including one who wrote revealing articles on the war in chechnya. despite the killings and threats, editor in chief muratov has refused to abandon the newspaper's independent policy. he has consistently defended the right of journalists to write anything about whatever they want as long as they comply with the professional and ethical standards of journalism. free, independent and fact —based journalism serves to protect against abuse of power, lies and propaganda. the norwegian nobel committee is convinced that freedom of expression and freedom of information help to ensure and inform the public. these rights are crucial prerequisites for democracy and protect against war and conflict. the award of the nobel peace prize to maria ressa and dmitry muratov is intended to underscore the importance of protecting and defending these fundamental rights. without freedom of expression and freedom of the press, it will be difficult to successfully promote fraternity between nations, disarmament and a better world order to succeed in our time. this year's award of the nobel peace prize is therefore firmly anchored in the provisions of alfred nobel's will. thank you very much. studio: twojournalists have been awarded the nobel peace prize for 2021, one from the philippines, one from russia. maria ressa, a high—profilejournalist from russia. maria ressa, a high—profile journalist in the philippines who was actually found guilty of libel in the philippines in a case seen as a test of the country's media freedom. as we saw there, she has used freedom of expression to oppose oppression and has documented how social media has been used to spread misinformation. the otherjournalist is the russian editor in chief of the most independent newspaper in russia, dmitry muratov. he has used his efforts since 1993, since his newspaper was set up, to fight for freedom of expression. editor in chief of novaya gazeta, the most independent newspaper in russia today. six of its journalists have been killed, just think about that for a moment, six of itsjournalists have been killed as they went about theirjob. as we heard, despite that, he, dmitry muratov, has consistently defended the right of his journalists to write independent, fact —based pieces, whether they be critical of the current government of russia or not. in the uk, the nhs has launched its biggest campaign against winter flu, with more than a0 million people across the uk being offered a vaccine. health chiefs are worried about the prospect of flu and covid—19 circulating together. they fear people could be more vulnerable to catching flu this winter, because so few people caught it last year, as a result of the lockdowns and additional hygiene measures that were in place. our health correspondent naomi grimley reports. i've got together some of the country's leading medics to answer your vaccine questions... this is the latest media advert to remind us that it's notjust covid which we have to worry about this winter. flu could rear its head again, too. so more than a0 million people across the uk are being offered a flu jab in the biggest ever roll—out of the vaccine. those who will be able to get one free include the over—50s, those with certain health conditions, pregnant women, health care workers, and most children. lockdowns and extra hygiene measures squashed flu last winter, and that means the level of immunity in the population is likely to be lower this time round. there's also uncertainty about how effective the flu vaccine will be, because scientists have less information to go on when they guess the strain in advance. even if you've had flu vaccination last year, it's really important to get it every year because the strains of flu that are circulating do change. we are in a position where we're not quite as sure this year what's going to be circulating, but we have got some idea from the southern hemisphere, and flu vaccination is still your best way of getting protection. even if it doesn't provide complete protection, if you do get flu you are much less likely to be seriously unwell with it. and, really importantly, you're much less likely to pass it on to other people who could be even more vulnerable. flu normally kills around 11,000 people every winter, but a report published earlier this year from the academy of medical sciences warned respiratory illnesses could hit very high levels, and flu deaths alone could reach 60,000 in worst case scenario. naomi grimley, bbc news. dr eleanor gaunt from the university of

worst case scenario and it will be really determined by which strains of flu come to us, which is difficult to predict. so how have we managed to get vaccines that will be effective? we usually look to what strains circulating in the southern hemisphere, flu follows the seasons. in australia we know that influenza a is a circulating right now, causing 97% of flu cases, but looking to china, i had us in terms of the doctor measures and progress through the covid pandemic, they have mainly influenza b so we're not certain, but the vaccines have a mix of strains so they will offer protection to multiple types of flu, we are trying to cover all bases, i would encourage people to get flu vaccines because we are so uncertain this year. vaccines because we are so uncertain this ear. ~ .,

is really best avoided, the best way to do that is to get vaccines against both coronavirus and influenza. the? to get vaccines against both coronavirus and influenza. they both transmitted similar _

restrictions such as the instruction to work from home, if possible could be relaxed if cases fall. the us has stepped up the pressure on russia over the shortage of gas in europe, warning moscow not to exploit the situation. president biden's national security adviser, jake sullivan, told the bbc that russia, which is europe's primary supplier of gas, had previously used energy as a political weapon, but doing so now would be counterproductive. wholesale gas prices have soared amid rising demand across europe, but fell back this week after the russian president, vladimir putin, said moscow could increase supplies. mark lobel reports. the gas and electricity price surge is alarming consumers across europe. i am very, very worried. very concerned. we struggle enough. translation: there are mothers today have to choose between paying - for their energy bill or feeding their children. that is the problem. the colder weather is coming fast. we need to heat apartments. if you go to the poorer areas, where they are suffering, no one puts on the heating, because everyone knows they won't be able to pay for it. a record demand for gas and limited storage in the eu is fuelling politicians�* fears for the future. russia supplies 40% of the eu's natural gas imports. moscow once feared a falling oil price would undermine its economy. now it is calling the shots. watch the price of gas plummet as vladimir putin is televised suggesting a possible increase of gas supply on wednesday. but he has little sympathy for his european customers. translation: all of its activities were aimed at curtailing - the so—called long—term contracts focusing on the transition to gas exchange trading. it turns out this policy was wrong, it didn't account for uncertainties. russia's main gas producer insists it is blameless. translation: since the beginning of the year, we have supplied - foreign markets with near—record amounts of gas. we have increased deliveries to our largest consumer market, germany, by a third compared to last year, to turkey by two and a half times, to romania by four times. we've supplied additional volumes of gas along all routes, including the ukrainian route, as much as we could. but ukraine's gas operator says russia has reduced the amount it routes through the country between january and september by 17% compared to the previous year. russia says the new nord stream 2 underwater pipeline would save europe's sticky situation, but only if germany and brussels quickly approved the project to get it flowing. not everyone thinks russia is acting reasonably. we have long been concerned about russia using energy as a tool of coercion and a political weapon. we had seen it happen before and we could see it happen again. i think it would be a mistake for russia to try to exploit this, i think that would ultimately backfire on them and i believe that they should respond to the market demands for increased energy supplies to europe. that comes from more demand as countries emerge from the pandemic, depleted storage tanks after a cold end to the winter, china consuming more gas and low wind speeds that reduce renewable energy. so right now, russia remains under pressure to increase supply, driven by a volatile market which is powering its bargaining position too. mark lobel, bbc news. the us has stepped up pressure on russia over the shortage of gas in europe, which is the story behind just covered, i think. president bidenjon president biden djokovic letsjust bidenjon president biden djokovic lets just leave

fresh attack on the government following the removal of the £20 a week uplift to universal credit. he was speaking at a ceremony at the university of manchester as he received an honorary doctorate for his work tackling child poverty. the player said millions of people had lost a lifeline. i don't think that the right point for it to end is when families aren't in a stable situation. otherwise it makes no sense doing the work that we've done in the past, only to, you know, stop doing it in possibly one of the most vital stages, which we don't know, because the situation of the pandemic, with covid could change at any moment, as we've experienced when covid first came on the scene, and the fact that we weren't prepared for it then, we should definitely be prepared for it now. our

government has responded to what he said overnight. they congratulated him on his honorary doctorate and set its ongoing campaigning and charity work and high—profile campaigns had helped millions upon down the country —— and said his ongoing campaigning charity work. what he said today echoes and feeds into a discussion over many weeks in westminster was some conservative mps were pushing for the uplift to be kept, labour too. sir keir starmer the labour leader this morning told bbc breakfast that he backed marcus rashford, this is what he said labour would do. it rashford, this is what he

he was - pushed and how labour would pay the estimated £6 billion a year to keep the £20 uplift alone, he talked about getting that money from 19 contracts, there are questions over how much that would bring in, whether it would be anywhere near enough to cover that scale of cuts. in a statement the government said the universal credit uplift was always a temporary measure designed to help claimants through the toughest stages of the pandemic and now the economy was starting to bounce package was right to focus on helping people back into high quality, well—paid jobs. it said it had taken what it called significant action to help people who they recognise are worried about the cost of living this winter. transport secretary grant shapps paid tribute to marcus rashford but said reinstating the uplift which, at a cost, likely to mean more taxes or increasing fuel duty or another way of bringing in revenue, so this is a really live debate in westminster, theissue really live debate in westminster, the issue about cost of living and more generally the recognition that prices are increasing above the board, especially the crease and energy prices, and there are concerns about how this will play out this winter —— especially the screens around energy prices. democrats and republicans in the senate have reached a short term deal which allows the government to borrow more money. it's aimed at preventing the us treasury from defaulting on its debts for the first time ever, but the agreement only lasts for two months so it's only a short term fix. we have reached agreement to extend the debt ceiling through early december, it is our hope we can get this done as soon as today. republican and democratic members and staff negotiated through the night. the senate is moving towards the plan i laid out yesterday to spare the american people a manufacturing crisis. our washington correspondent nomia iqbal says senators will have to address the issue again in december. it has taken some time for it to get to this stage. in the last couple of hours the political drama playing out here in dc that the democrats are hoping the republicans would get on board to try to at least get it through the senate, they needed at least ten republicans, they got 11 to help break they got 11 to help break the filibuster bit. it was approved by the senate, it has to go to the house to be approved, which it will be because the democratic party controls the house, it will land on the desk of president biden, he will sign it, $480 billion to cover spending until december 3rd. it averts a huge crisis, it is probably an understatement to even call it that because call it that because america, america, had it defaulted on its debts, it could have got into a recession. the economy is already precarious, americans would have experienced realfinancial hardship, people would not have been paid, global markets would have been in turmoil, the credit rating agencies would have downgraded america's standing, so it has averted the crisis for now, but this will happen again in a couple of months because it is only until december 3rd, meaning we will be talking about this all over again. it's a grim statistic. every five minutes someone in the uk is admitted to hospital with a heart attack. most people survive, but the damage done can leave them prone to fresh attacks. so, researchers at addenbrooke's hospital in cambridge and the british heart foundation have been trialling a drug that they hope can heal damaged hearts and make people less likely to suffer further attacks. our science correspondent richard westcott reports. julian isn't the kind of person you would expect to have a heart attack. a keen cyclist, healthy eating, doesn't smoke, in his early 50s, but last summer, out of the blue... a pretty normal day until about 4pm. and i had an enormous pain in my chest, vice—like, and i said to my wife, i feel really, really ill. i lay down and the pain didn't go away. at any point did you think it might be a heart attack? i didn't think it would happen to me, i thought i was too young, fit and healthy, i had no underlying symptoms. the previous weekend i had been out on quite a long bike ride. so acting as normal, and then like a bolt out of the blue you get by huge pain in your chest and find yourself in papworth. julian hasjoined a drug trial at addenbrooke's hospital in cambridge. some people have an immune system that goes into overdrive following a heart attack and actually starts to damage the body, leaving the patient prone to another attack or a stroke. researchers hope this drug will cut that risk. if you think of the immune system as having good cop and bad cop cells, in these high—risk patients we have a very high number of bad cop cells. so in this trial we are trying to increase the good cop cell number so it negates the harmful effects of the bad cop cells. it has been shown to hvae very good results in other autoimmune conditions like diabetes, hepatitis, hiv. we are just about to give you your injection, nowjulian. if this smaller trial is successful the drug will need to be tested in large—scale human trials, but it could one day spare thousands of people the fear of having a second heart attackjust a few months after the first. the weeks after the attack, i lost all confidence in my own body. i didn't want to do anything. and it's building that confidence again in your own body, being able to do things that you love. if there is a drug that can help people get back to normality, that has got to be hugely beneficial. this year's nobel peace prize has been won by two journalists, maria ressa from the philippines, and the russian, dmitry muratov. the chairwoman of the nobel committee said they received awards due to their fight for freedom said they received awards due to theirfight forfreedom in said they received awards due to their fight for freedom in their countries. she said maria ressa and dmitry muratov represented all journalists across the globe who studied for democracy and freedom of the press. the prize includes a cheque for more than $1 million. howard johnson is the bbc�*s philippines corresponded and he knows maria ressa, to our audience around the world, who might not have heard of her, all about maria? maria ressa is a courageous _ heard of her, all about maria? m1 —. ressa is a courageousjournalist, as you said, she was born in the philippines and moved to america during the time of martial law and dictator ferdinand marcos in the 19805, dictator ferdinand marcos in the 1980s, she came back to set up rappler, this news website in the philippines which has been very hard hitting with its journalism, philippines which has been very hard hitting with itsjournalism, she really pushed for boats of the values of american democracy, western democracy, pushing forward due process, freedom of the press, this is something in the philippines that really hits a brick wall with politicians who for a long time have had the unity. the rappler website has obviously caused difficulties for the 230 government, roger regurgitated broughton a drug war when he was elected in 2016 and i have been allegations of extrajudicial killings, some people say between 7000 and 10,000 alleged drug suspect without due process. this is being investigated by the international criminal court but her website rappler has been at the forefront of exposing these issues with allegations that police killed people with no due process, no right to a coach, no right to say we were innocent. some say a shoot first, ask questions later policy. i understand she was also found guilty of libel, which was seen as a test of libel, which was seen as a test of media freedom in the philippines? i covered the trial extensively from the first trial to the last eight, she was found guilty last year, she currently has seven cases against her including another cyber libel case, tax evasion and allegations of foreign ownership, and in that case last year when she was found guilty of cyber libel, that was a big shock and a blow to manyjournalists in the philippines who have suddenly had this chilling effect, worried that may be the same thing will happen to them. at the moment it is being appealed, going to the court of appeal in the philippines, but maria ressa has big backers around the world, she is supported by george and amal clooney, friends with hillary clinton and in 2018 she was named type person of the year and there is an online campaign at the moment with a 20. seven streaming videos reporting her, anybody can to that because like—minded people around the world to clearly see she is being attacked by max in the philippines —— with a 24/7 stream.

july. the unrest was sparked by the jailing of the country's former president jacob zuma. the protests were widely seen as a targeted campaign to undermine current president cyril ramaphosa. the riots died down after the deployment of thousands of soldiers. our correspondent nomsa maseko sent this report. the riots that shocked south africa three months ago. nearly 350 people died across two provinces affected by violent protests sparked by the jailing of former president jacob zuma. the unrest began when a heavily armed gang hijacked trucks and torched more than 20 cars on the motorway which links sub—saharan africa's biggest port to the country's economic hub. we went back to these areas today. only a handful of the shopping malls looted have reopened. in this eastern johannesburg township several people are still missing. their families suspect they perished in a gas explosion at the supermarket. police say the remains recovered here were burned beyond recognition and it will take a while before dna tests are concluded. translation: i need to find my son's remains so i can have peace. - i have so many questions, i need to know what happened to my son. all i wanted to bury him, i need closure. while some families are counting the human cost, many others are trying to rebuild businesses. this is what remains of this woman's business. it is the first time she has returned to her clothing shop since july's advance. she is one of many businesses that were not insured and are looking to the state owned company to bail them out. this shop is my sole income, and all of a sudden it is going, without any notice or prior arrangement whatsoever. it was just cut. experts say it will be another year before the country's economy recovers from the impact of the worst violence in post—apartheid south africa. need to understand that what happened injuly happened when we were busy trying to navigate a pandemic, something that never elite of us were prepared for in 2020. a lot ofjobs were of us were prepared for in 2020. a lot of jobs were lost, of us were prepared for in 2020. a lot ofjobs were lost, notjust to covid, but through the unrest. we know through the looting, the destruction of business premises, shops, retailsectors, destruction of business premises, shops, retail sectors, thejobs that were lost across a wide section of the economy. we need to move quicker to get as people back into employment, so that we start to drive the economy again. while rebuilding continues, it remains unclear what the real cause of the violence was, which has led many to believe it could happen again. pig farmers in the uk are warming of tens of thousands of animals to be slaughtered in weeks, due to labour shortages in abattoirs being blamed on brexit and the covid pandemic. the nationalfarmers union said what is happening is a human disasterfor farmers. let's talk to a pig farmer, kate morgan, a farmer in yorkshire. i wonder if you could explain to the audience around the world what the situation is now in terms of trying to find the abattoir staff to humanely slaughter your picks? well, the situation — humanely slaughter your picks? -ii the situation unfortunately hasn't changed much. we have been talking to you now for a week, and every day that goes by, there are more pics that goes by, there are more pics that have been backlogged because we cannot slaughter them, because we don't have the staff in the abattoir. we have had nothing from the government, there is no positive story. this is emotionally draining. every pig farmer

testing l ground, the cambridge analytica whistle—blower christopher wiley called the philippines the petrie dish, the most number of compromised accounts was the united states, the country with a second most was the philippines. facebook itself said that we were ground zero, agreeing with that. so what is happening here, we are being insidiously manipulated in what has become a behaviour modification system. and this is part of what you are hearing being exposed at the us senate by facebook�*s former employee, a former product manager, frances haugen. this is our world today. so why the philippines? i think part of it is because we are english speaking, we adapt to the technology, we have similar technology as the west, but i think more than that we live in different worlds. so, how do i track this? ijust go back to this moment thatis this? ijust go back to this moment that is so existential, the defence of our democracy in the philippines, the defence of our rights, human rights, the fact that we have no idea exactly how many people have been killed in a brutal drug war. you have come in plain view, you see the police rolling back the numbers from 7000 to 2000, that was in 2017. and we go to 2021, and you have human rights groups saying that it is tens of thousands, 30,000 plus, when you have the police saying something completely different. this hall of mirrors has to change, at a time of accountability, which does come. asjournalists we have time of accountability, which does come. as journalists we have to just hold the line. this is something we say all the time. having said this, do you think it will change the perception of people who are sceptical about the media? you know, the media has been demonised in the past how many years, we are at the front lines, and we see it on a daily basis, all of those comments. is this something that will change that, people starting to trust the media again? the failure of trust is a by—product of the failure of facts, the manipulation of our public. again, you go back to the core problem. journalists are not blameless in this. we certainly are humans. tech platforms will claim that al this. we certainly are humans. tech platforms will claim that ai will do better. but it has biases programmed by the public. an american biologist, wilson, he studies emergent behaviour. he said the crises we are facing now are paleolithic emotions, the emotions of our godlike technology. when you don't have facts, you don't have truth, you don't have trust. trust holds us together to be able to solve the complex problems that the world is facing today. with the media it is often about shooting the messenger, ortrying media it is often about shooting the messenger, or trying to solve that in many different ways. what it is to be a journalist today, i hope there is energy for all of us to continue to work with the facts. lets assume in on your experience. 35 years as a journalist, what does

journalism and community. we are building a platform where we will build a community around facts and evidence based reasoning. iam community around facts and evidence based reasoning. i am also part of different groups that are demanding legislation, globally, the forum for industry and democracy, publishing a white paper to look for structural solutions, because these are structural problems. these algorithms divide us, and radicalise us. on the second part, independent journalism, we are not only working in the philippines to continue doing that, but i think it is an existential moment for independent media. that's part of the reason that i accepted a co—chair along with mark thompson, a former ceo of the new york times, the international fund for public interest, to try to raise money so that we are going to be able to help independent media survive. finally, and this is the least of it, the community. i don't think it could have survived without all of the support that we received in the last six years, but in the last five and a half years. our communities of action, the elevator pitch for rappler, that it is communities in action. we must stick to that mission, so we

you have sunshine or rain at the moment, there is one unifying thread through the weather, and that is just how mild it feels. we certainly started the day are incredibly mild note, close to an october record part of scotland and northern ireland. even in the coldest spots, temperatures still two three degrees above the average. it is because we have southerly wind, and with that has come the rain. scotland and northern ireland saw the warmest conditions, outbreaks of rain continuing. the south—east of northern ireland will dry out, looking brighter and eastern parts of scotland. a bit brighter in england and wales, although some of the mist will linger into the afternoon, where you have the sunny spells, temperatures 20 or 23 degrees. another very mild one for early october. and it leads us into another warm night. more rain to come in northern ireland, particularly later in the night. the same across western scotland, the odd patch of drizzle elsewhere. most misty in parts of northern england, north midlands and north wales. some of the clearer skies towards the south—east, this is where temperatures will drop the furthest comment to single figures. most, like yesterday and this morning, starting in the teens. the warm area is denoted by the orange colours on this charge, notice how the cold front through the weekend starts to push them away, back into the continent. the blues indicating that there is a hint of something fresher on the way. we will have a wet start for northern ireland and western parts of scotland. brightening up your through the day. east of scotland will turn wetter, and we will see some outbreaks of rain developing in north—west england and through parts of wales. south and east of that, the morning murk should clear. temperatures not hired today but getting into the high teens and low 20s for some, a pressure into the north and west. fresh air pushing southwards through the night and into sunday. a cooler start on sunday. the weather front lingering across southern counties, more cloud here. one or two mega showers. the main chance of showers across northern scotland, some heavy and thundery, pushed along by a blustery wind. the vast majority on sunday will have a day with some sunny spells. feeling a little bit cooler in the sunshine, but still nice enough once you are in it. it means is we go to next week that the fresh air will be with us throughout. there will be a few showers dotted around for scotland and eastern england. for most, a predominantly dry week lies ahead. this is bbc news, i'm ben mundy. these

winterflu, with more than 40 million of us across the uk being offered a vaccine. health chiefs are worried about the prospect of flu and covid 19 circulating together. they fear people could be more vulnerable to flu this winter, because so few people caught it last year, because lockdowns meant we mixed less, and we were all washing our hands a lot and being generally more hygienic. our health correspondent, naomi grimley, reports. i've got together some of the country's leading medics to answer your vaccine questions... this is the latest media advert to remind us that it's notjust covid which we have to worry about this winter. flu could rear its head again, too. so more than 40 million people across the uk are being offered a flu jab, in the biggest ever roll—out of the vaccine. those who will be able to get one free include the over—50s, those with certain health conditions, pregnant women, health care workers, and most children. lockdowns and extra hygiene measures squashed flu last winter, and that means the level of immunity in the population is likely to be lower this time round. there's also uncertainty about how effective the flu vaccine will be, because scientists have less information to go on when they guess the strain in advanced. even if you've had flu vaccination last year, it's really important to get it every year because the strains of flu that are circulating do change. we are in a position where we're not quite as sure this year what's going to be circulating, but we have got some idea from the southern hemisphere, and flu vaccination is still your best way of getting protection. even if it doesn't provide complete protection, if you do get flu you are much less likely to be seriously unwell with it. and, really importantly, you're much less likely to pass it on to other people who could be even more vulnerable. flu normally kills around 11,000 people every winter, but a report published earlier this year from the academy of medical sciences warned respiratory illnesses could hit very high levels, and flu deaths alone could reach 60,000 in worst case scenario. naomi grimley, bbc news. the welsh government will publish its covid winter plan today, with a warning that businesses could have to shut again, if there's a new variant or a drop in levels of immunity. but the current restrictions, such as the instruction to work from home, if possible, could be relaxed if cases fall. ofgem has said it expects the price cap to rise significantly next april because of the increase in wholesale gas costs. several smaller firms have been forced out of business and the chief executive said all companies were feeling the strain. he said the price cap was there to stop firms making unfair profits, but the legitimate costs had to be passed through to customers. the us has stepped up the pressure on russia over the shortage of gas in europe, warning moscow not to exploit the situation. wholesale gas prices have soared amid rising demand across europe, but fell back this week, after the russian president, vladimir putin, said moscow could increase supplies. mark lobel reports. the gas and electricity price surge is alarming consumers across europe. i am very, very worried. very concerned. we struggle enough. translation: there are mothers today have to choose between paying - for their energy bill, or feeding their children. that is the problem. the colder weather is coming fast. we need to heat apartments. if you go to the poorer areas, where there is suffering, no—one puts on the heating, because everyone knows they won't be able to pay for it. a record demand for gas and limited storage in the eu is fuelling politicians�* fears for the future. russia supplies 40% of the eu's natural gas imports. moscow once feared a falling oil price would undermine its economy. now it's calling the shots. watch the price of gas plummet, as vladimir putin is televised suggesting a possible increase of gas supply on wednesday. but he has little sympathy for his european customers. translation: all of its activities were aimed at curtailing - the so—called long—term contracts, focusing on the transition - to gas exchange trading. it turns out this policy was wrong, it didn't account for uncertainties. j russia's main gas producer insists it is blameless. translation: since the beginning of the year, we have supplied - foreign markets with near—record amounts of gas. we increased deliveries to our largest consumer market, germany, by a third compared to last year, to turkey by two and a half times, to romania by four times. we've supplied additional volumes of gas along all routes, including the ukrainian route, as much as we could. but ukraine's gas operator says russia has reduced the amount it routes through the country between january and september by 17% compared to the previous year. russia says the new nord stream 2 underwater pipeline would save europe's sticky situation, but only if germany and brussels quickly approved the project to get it flowing. not everyone thinks russia is acting reasonably. we have long been concerned about russia using energy as a tool of coercion and a political weapon. we have seen it happen before and we could see it happen again. i think it would be a mistake for russia to try to exploit this, i think that would ultimately backfire on them and i believe that they should respond to the market demands for increased energy supplies to europe. that comes from more demand as countries emerge from the pandemic, depleted storage tanks after a cold end to the winter, china consuming more gas, consuming more gas, and low wind speeds that reduce renewable energy. so right now, russia remains under pressure to increase supply, driven by a volatile market which is powering its bargaining position, too. mark lobel, bbc news. the transport secretary has defended changing the number of red list countries to seven, saying vaccination has reduced the risks. grant shapps also said he hopes pcr covid tests can be replaced with lateral flow tests for people arriving in the uk, which will make the process both quicker and cheaper. and that's why we are so keen to get it back to a lateral flow test, only possible because so many people are vaccinated, both here and abroad now. and i know that there is real, you know, everyone is really keen to see that done as quickly as possible. and i know that, as i say, my colleagues over at the department of health are working very hard on that and we will be able to say more about it soon, i think. let's hear from a representative of the travel industry about the changes. stephaniejepson is a partner at courney world travel. thank you forjoining us. for those that don't know,

of the £20 a week uplift to universal credit. he was speaking at a ceremony at the university of manchester, as he received an honorary doctorate for his work tackling child poverty. the player said millions of people had lost a lifeline. i don't think that the right point for it to end is when families aren't in a stable situation. otherwise it makes no sense, doing the work that we've done in the past, only to, you know, stop doing it in possibly one of the most vital stages, which we don't know, because the situation of the pandemic with covid could change at any moment, as we've experienced when covid first came on the scene, and the fact that we weren't prepared for it then, we should definitely be prepared for it now. i spoke to our political correspondent helen catt and asked what politicians say about this. well, marcus rashford has become a really respected campaigner on child poverty issues, there is a lot of time for him, frankly, among mps here in westminster, and that's recognised in how the government has responded to what he said overnight. they've congratulated him on receiving that honorary doctorate and said that his ongoing campaigning and charity work and high—profile campaigns had helped millions ap and high—profile campaigns had helped millions of people up and down the country. what he's saying today does echo and feed into a discussion over many weeks in westminster where some conservative mps were pushing for the uplift to be kept, labour too have been calling for it to be kept. sir keir starmer the labour leader this morning told bbc breakfast that he backed marcus rashford, here's what he said labour would do. it would stay, we would not make the cut, we would then replace it with something better. but i'd go further than that... both talk at once. we would also say what we said at our conference last week, which is that we would increase the minimum wage to £10 an hour, because what so many people want is the chance to earn more money for their work they're doing and to keep more of it for the bills they have to pay etc. we would keep the uplift and then replace it with a much better system that did not require people put to work 29 hours to earn £20, nobody can think that is fair. we would also increase the minimum wage to £10 straightaway. he was pushed on how labour would pay for that, its estimated to cost £6 billion a year to keep the £20 uplift alone, he talked about clawing back money money from covid contracts, there are questions over how much that would bring in, would it be anywhere near enough to cover that scale of costs. the government, in a statement, said the universal credit uplift was always a temporary measure, designed to help claimants through the toughest stages of the pandemic and now the economy was starting to bounce, it was right to focus on helping people back into high quality, well—paid jobs. it also said it had taken what it called significant action to help people who they recognise are worried about the cost of living this winter. grant shapps the transport secretary speaking earlier also paid tribute to marcus rashford, but said reinstating the uplift would come at a cost, and that would be likely to mean more taxes or increasing fuel duty or another way of bringing in revenue, so this is a really live debate in westminster, the issue about cost of living, more generally the recognition that prices are increasing above the board, particularly the squeeze around energy prices, and there are concerns about how this will play out this winter. the nhs is offering millions of people a flu vaccine this year. it's an response of the concerns about the prospect of flu and covid—19 circulating at the same time. joining me now is dr naomi forrester soto, a virologist from keele university. how worried should be about covid and flu circulating together? that is about jewel— and flu circulating together? that is aboutjewel infection and flu circulating together? that is about jewel infection at and flu circulating together? tryst is about jewel infection at the same is aboutjewel infection at the same time could lead to significantly worse outcomes. we have not yet experienced that because there was hardly any flu last year either because of lockdown or the precautions people were taking such as masquerading and social distancing. nobody is sure it's likely as the restrictions are easily liked end up with an increase of flu cases and there are predictions out there that suggest a flu season could be worse this year as a result

had and then use a prediction tool to try and work out how much that is going to change. you have to develop a vaccine about six months and as lance, that's why something is a flu vaccine is better than others, we are better at it some years than others. in general, theissueis some years than others. in general, the issue is that nobody was exposed last year and we build up immunity over time and even that immunity from the previous year can help mitigate that from a slightly different flu vaccine this year. even though it has changed you have immunity from the year before because you were exposed to it or had the vaccine. because nobody was exposed we may see people more exposed we may see people more exposed and vulnerable than last otherwise. the exposed and vulnerable than last

will reduce the number of people who end up in hospital with flu which will significantly reduce the pressure at the worst things in the winter when we have really high transmission rates of infections so i think a bit of extra pressure now trying to get the vaccine out as pogba worth it in the long run. within the last hour, two journalists have won the nobel peace prize. maria ressa

this digital site which regularly reports on the anti—drugs campaign of the state and its a campaign that has become so deadly that the chairwoman of the norwegian committee said it basically amounted to a war being waged against the people of the philippines. the website has responded saying that honoured and astounded and that this award recognises all the journalists who continue to shine a

17% over the past decade. researchers from oxford university suggest most people are eating less red and processed meats, but white meat consumption has increased slightly. however, they say a more

the takeover of newcastle has been criticised by amnesty international, accusing saudi arabia of sportswashing human rights issues. in 2018, prominantjournalist jamal khashoggi was killed while visiting the saudi consulate in istanbul, with the alleged involvement of the saudi crown prince, mohamed bin salman. he denies the claims. khashoggi's fiancee told bbc radio 5 live breakfast that

deyontay wilder in las vegas. fury is defending the belt he won back in february 2020, but today's weigh in will not have a face off. the pair traded verbal blows in the press conference, earlier in the week, with wilder accusing fury of cheating in that fight. so the promoter is keeping them apart. they are not animals, they are sportsmen, i do not like face—offs at all, i think the out unnecessary, and dehumanises the fighters and i do not think it is good for the sport but here either did not for those reasons, i did it because i was afraid what would happen and the fate could be cancelled. the 2016 olympic cycling champion, elinor barker says she is reassured by the success of laura kenny, sarah storey and lizzie diegnan, after she revealed she was pregnant. barker won silver this year in the team pursuit in tokyo, not fully knowing she was pregnant at the time. as others have shown, including diegnan — who won the famous paris—roubaix, race just last weekend — there's nothing to stop her returning to the top of her sport after the birth of her first child — due early next year. if this had happened to me a few years earlier and make idiot i probably would have immediately thought that as my cycling career over, but because of these women i do not have to make that choice, it doesn't have to affect my career for the next ten years. it is an opportunity that should still be given to riders and should not really change anything and pregnant women are not necessarily a risk and a sporting environment, they can be an asset. that's all the sport for now. some

have what so hard throughout the pandemic, they have not stopped working, they are effectively superheroes and absolutely the government really does need to intervene particularly with the supply chain issues with the hgv shortage and they need to step and to start issuing these covid visas that need to be put in place to get more staff, more workers. talking to my manufacturing site in cumbria, we pre—ordered all are turkey, plenty time to order a large quantity but talking to head of production, you have to be extremely thick—skinned to work in that industry and it is a crying shame that so many of these agricultural colleges, one of which in cumbria has recently closed founded in 1896, a real shortage of skilled apprentices out there. there is a new initiative, a new farm

with a lot of imported food and the uk has some of the best welfare standards in the world so this should have been planned months and months ago, the government saw this coming and we are not careful and something does not happen immediately at is going to be very difficult for families but i thick it is an absolute crying shame going on to what kate was saying that we have these food banks and so

this year i think is probably going to be much the levels for smaller food producers which the uk relies on an there are so many that have struck up there are so many that have struck up many farm shops struck up which we supply to throat the pandemic and that trained seems to be continuing. this year particularly with the excess furlough money a lot of consumers will of course want to support and by british, support our farmers, they are equal to the nhs and the police etc. so there needs to be immediate government intervention in order to try and solve this crisis particularly with the opening of visas but i think the foreign visas needs to last at least 12 months. . ~ foreign visas needs to last at least 12 months. ., ,, , ., ., foreign visas needs to last at least 12 months-—

sole survivor of a cable car crash in italy in may. an italianjudge had given guardianship of eitan biran, to his paternal aunt who lives in italy, but last month his maternal grandfather flew him to israel without her permission. the bbc�*s middle east correspondent — yolande knell is at the court in tel aviv and explained the background to the case it was five months ago this awful cable car accident in the north of italy where eitan biran had been living with his father who was training to be a doctor. they had gone to a beauty spot for a family day out with two of his great—grandparents and younger great—grandpa rents and younger brother. great—grandparents and younger brother. it is not when the cable car accident happened at was the protective hug of his father that saved him from the full impact of the crash so he was the sole survivor, considered to be something of a medical he survived anti—spent several weeks in hospital. it was an italianjudge who several weeks in hospital. it was an italian judge who gave custody now, it was an italian judge who gave custody to his aunt, a doctor who lives in italy, and then it was just last month that eitan biran�*s grandfather was visiting from israel, he took the little boy out saying he was going to buy him some toys, but he never returned. he actually used an israeli passport that he had acquired for the little boy to take him into switzerland and to bring him here on an israeli, on a privatejet. he has appeared since on israeli television, talking about his decision to do that. this case has been very much in the public eye, it continues to be so, although thejudge has previously asked for privacy of all of those involved to be respected. south africa is still looking for answers after 9 days of looting and violent protests which took place injuly. the unrest was sparked by the jailing of the country�*s former president jacob zuma. the protests were widely seen as a targeted campaign to undermine current president cyril ramaphosa. the riots died down after the deployment of thousands of soldiers. our correspondent nomsa maseko sent this report. crowd shout. the riots that shocked south africa three months ago. nearly 350 people died across two provinces which were affected by violent protests sparked by the jailing of former president, jacob zuma. the unrest began when a heavily armed gang hijacked trucks and torched more than 20 cars on the m3 motorway which links sub—saharan africa�*s biggest port to the country�*s economic hub. today, we went back to these areas. only a handful of the shopping malls that were looted or set alight have reopened. here in thembisa, a township in easternjohannesburg, several people are still missing. their families suspect they perished in a gas explosion at this supermarket. police have said the remains that were recovered here were burnt beyond recognition, and it could take a while before dna tests are concluded. she sobs. translation: i need to find my son's remains so i can have peace. - i have so many questions. i need to know what happened to my son. all i want is to bury him — i need closure. while some families are counting the human cost, many others are trying to rebuild their businesses. this is what remains of this woman�*s business. it�*s the first time she has returned to her clothing shop since july�*s unrest. she is one of many small business owners whose businesses were not insured and is looking to the country�*s state—owned insurance company to bail them out. this was my sole income, this shop, and now all of a sudden it's gone, without any notice or prior arrangement, nothing whatsoever, nothing planned — just cut. experts say it will be another year before the country�*s economy recovers from the impact in the worst violence in post—apartheid south africa. i think we need to understand what happened injuly happened at a time when we were busy trying to navigate a pandemic, something that none of us were ever prepared for in 2020. a lot ofjobs were lost, not just through covid but through this unrest. we know through the looting, the destruction of business premises, shops, retail sector, thejobs that were lost across a wide section of the economy. we need to move quicker to get those people back in to employment so that we start to drive the economy again. while the rebuilding continues, it remains unclear what the real cause of the violence was, which has led many to believe that it could happen again. nomsa maseko, bbc news, south africa. it�*s a grim statistic. every five minutes someone in the uk is admitted to hospital with a heart attack. most people survive, but the damage done can leave them prone to fresh attacks. so, researchers at addenbrooke�*s hospital in cambridge and the british heart foundation have been trialling a drug that they hope can heal damaged hearts and make people less likely to suffer further attacks. our science correspondent richard westcott reports. julian isn�*t the kind of person you would expect to have a heart attack. a keen cyclist, healthy eating, doesn�*t smoke, in his early 50s, but last summer, out of the blue... a pretty normal day until about 4pm. and i had an enormous pain in my chest, vice—like, and i said to my wife, i feel really, really ill. i lay down and the pain didn�*t go away. at any point did you think it might be a heart attack? i didn�*t think it would happen to me, i thought i was too young, fit and healthy, i had no underlying symptoms. the previous weekend i had been out on quite a long bike ride. so acting as normal, and then like a bolt out of the blue you get a huge pain in your chest and find yourself in papworth. julian hasjoined a drug trial at addenbrooke�*s hospital in cambridge. some people have an immune system that goes into overdrive following a heart attack and actually starts to damage the body, leaving the patient prone to another attack or a stroke. researchers hope this drug will cut that risk. if you think of the immune system as having good cop and bad cop cells, in these high—risk patients we have a very high number of bad cop cells. so in this trial we are trying to increase the good cop cell number so it negates the harmful effects of the bad cop cells. it has been shown to have very good results in other autoimmune conditions like diabetes, hepatitis, hiv. we are just about to give you your injection, now, julian. if this smaller trial is successful the drug will need to be tested in large—scale human trials, but it could one day spare thousands of people the fear of having a second heart attackjust a few months after the first. the weeks after the attack, i lost all confidence in my own body. i didn�*t want to do anything. and it�*s building that confidence again in your own body, being able to do things that you love. if there is a drug that can help people get back to normality, that has got to be hugely beneficial. a concert by the london symphony orchestra was live—streamed last night, free of charge, into hundreds of care—homes across the uk. the special performance was staged by the bristol beacon project to thank staff and residents for their resilience during the pandemic. jon kay reports. no bingo tonight. instead, residents at quarry house are waiting for a live performance by one of the best orchestras in the world. it�*s the first time we�*ve had something like this for a long time. so, yes, looking forward to it. the london symphony orchestra are used to big audiences, but tonight every care home in the uk is invited. i always believe that music was one of the great healing arts and it's a way of reconnecting with people and also saying...thank you to all the people who've worked — often for very little thanks — in the last year and a half. and alsojust to kind of spread some of what we do in the hope that it'll make people feel better. ladies and gentlemen, thank you so much. applause. can�*t put into words, really, what it means. i didn�*t realise it was going to be so...so emotional. things are still not completely right, but. . . hope for the future. i think it's incredible and a wonderful picture, as well. you know, it feels as if you could be there. it was organised by the bristol beacon project, but watched in care homes from ayrshire... ..to surrey. it�*s been so stressful and we�*ve had a lot of isolation in the homes. but it�*s all coming back and it feels great to bring joy and music back into the homes again. after nearly two years of pain, two hours ofjoy. laughter. jon kay, bbc news, bristol. a look at the weather. weather sunshine or rain there is one unifying thread and that is how mild it feels, started incredibly mild,

with me, ben mundy. the headlines... more than 40 million of us across the uk are being offered a flu jab this winter, in the biggest ever flu vaccination campaign from the nhs. the head of the uk�*s energy regulator warns prices will rise significantly next year because of soaring increases in wholesale gas costs. travellers to england will soon be able to take a photo of a negative lateral flow test from home instead of paying for an expensive pcr test before and afterjourneys. i think most people want to do the right thing, everyone understands it�*s important not to ignore a positive pcr test or lateral flow test indeed for when it comes to covid and we trust people will carry on the same thing. as pig farmers fear for their livlihoods, the government is accused of not doing enough to stop the needless culling of thousands of animals. we farm to feed the nation, we don't farm to throw it in the bin in the bin this is food waste, there are people starving the government is prepared to allow throwing away and that is criminal. journalists maria ressa from the philippines and dmitrhy muratov from russia win this year�*s nobel peace prize. conservative mp and former member of the cabinetjames brokenshire has died, aged 53 after suffering from lung cancer. the nhs has launched its biggest campaign against winterflu, with more than 40 million of us across the uk being offered a vaccine. health chiefs are worried about the prospect of flu and covid 19 circulating together. they fear people could be more vulnerable to flu this winter, because so few people caught it last year, because lockdowns meant we mixed less, and we were all washing our hands a lot and being generally more hygienic. our health correspondent, naomi grimley, reports. i�*ve got together some of the country�*s leading medics to answer your vaccine questions... this is the latest media advert to remind us that it�*s notjust covid which we have to worry about this winter. flu could rear its head again, too. so more than 40 million people across the uk are being offered a flu jab, in the biggest ever roll—out of the vaccine. those who will be able to get one free include the over—50s, those with certain health conditions, pregnant women, health care workers, and most children. lockdowns and extra hygiene measures squashed flu last winter, and that means the level of immunity in the population is likely to be lower this time round. there�*s also uncertainty about how effective the flu vaccine will be, because scientists have less information to go on when they guess the strain in advanced. even if you've had flu vaccination last year, it's really important to get it every year because the strains of flu that are circulating do change. we are in a position where we're not quite as sure this year what's going to be circulating, but we have got some idea from the southern hemisphere, and flu vaccination is still your best way of getting protection. even if it doesn't provide complete protection, if you do get flu you are much less likely to be seriously unwell with it. and, really importantly, you're much less likely to pass it on to other people who could be even more vulnerable. flu normally kills around 11,000 people every winter, but a report published earlier this year from the academy of medical sciences warned respiratory illnesses could hit very high levels, and flu deaths alone could reach 60,000 in worst case scenario. naomi grimley, bbc news. earlier, i spoke to dr naomi forrester soto, a virologist from keele university. there is concern that duel infection at the same time could lead to significantly worse outcomes. we have not yet experienced that because there was hardly any flu last year, either because of lockdowns or the precautions people were taking, such as mask—wearing and social distancing. nobody is sure which of those contributed the most or if all three contributed. it�*s likely as the restrictions are eased, we�*ll end up with an increase of flu cases and there are predictions out there that suggest a flu season could be worse this year as a result of having none for the past year. on the predictions element and the guessing going on, because flu almost disappeared last year, how are scientists able to work out what strain we may face this year? there were some flu cases last year and we could sequence those and see what the genetics of that flu was and then use a prediction tool to try and work out how much that is going to change. you have to develop a vaccine about six months in advance, that�*s why something is a flu vaccine is better than others, we are better at it some years than others. in general, the issue is that nobody really was exposed last year and we built up immunity over time and even that immunity from the previous year can help mitigate the infection from a slightly different flu vaccine this year. even though it has changed you have immunity from the year before because you were exposed to it or had the vaccine. there�*s a concern because nobody was exposed we may see people more vulnerable than last otherwise. the overriding message is if you can get the flu jab, get it. is there anything else we can do to protect against it? honestly, with flu, it�*s a respiratory infection just like coronavirus, social distancing, ventilation, wearing a mask, all those things will help with flu, they are not the most popular things in the world but they are very useful against the coronavirus and the flu. if you are concerned, i would suggest those and getting the vaccine. this flu vaccine include secondary school children up to the age of 16. what�*s the significance of that? generally, the flu affects primarily the very old and very young which is why children are offered the vaccine, but i think the reason they are being offered up to, for all secondary—age schoolchildren is to try to mitigate any more disruption to learning this year as well. if we can vaccinate that cohort, they are much less likely to be off sick with the flu and to contribute to transmission of it in the community. given the stories we have heard about the nhs being under pressure, administering 40 million flu jabs, how might that affect the pressure on the nhs that exists already? i mean, i would say the nhs is very good at delivering flu jabs, they do it every year. expanding will create some more pressure. but the hope is that by vaccinating more people, that will reduce the number of people who end up in hospital with flu which will significantly reduce the pressure at the worst time in the winter when we have really high transmission rates of infections so i think a bit of extra pressure now trying to get the vaccine out is probably worth it in the long run. the welsh government will publish its covid winter plan today, with a warning that businesses could have to shut again, if there�*s a new variant or a drop in levels of immunity. but the current restrictions, such as the instruction to work from home, if possible, could be relaxed if cases fall. we will be going live to mark drakeford�*s announcing those plans. joining me now to tell us more

significantly next april, because of the big increase in wholesale gas costs. several smallerfirms have been forced out of business recently, and ofgem�*s chief executive jonathan brearley said all companies were feeling the strain. he said the price cap was there to stop firms making unfair profits, but that legitimate costs had to be passed through to customers. meanwhile, the us has stepped up the pressure on russia, over the shortage of gas in europe, warning moscow not to exploit the situation. wholesale gas prices have soared amid rising demand across europe, but fell back this week after the russian president, vladimir putin, said moscow could increase supplies. mark lobel reports. the gas and electricity price surge is alarming consumers across europe. i am very, very worried. very concerned. we struggle enough. translation: there are mothers today have to choose between paying - for their energy bill, or feeding their children. that is the problem. the colder weather is coming fast. we need to heat apartments. if you go to the poorer areas, where there is suffering, no—one puts on the heating, because everyone knows they won't be able to pay for it. a record demand for gas and limited storage in the eu is fuelling politicians�* fears for the future. russia supplies 40% of the eu�*s natural gas imports. moscow once feared a falling oil price would undermine its economy. now it�*s calling the shots. watch the price of gas plummet, as vladimir putin is televised suggesting a possible increase of gas supply on wednesday. but he has little sympathy for his european customers. translation: all of its activities were aimed at curtailing - the so—called long—term contracts, focusing on the transition - to gas exchange trading. it turns out this policy was wrong, it didn't account for uncertainties. j russia�*s main gas producer insists it is blameless. translation: since the beginning of the year, we have supplied - foreign markets with near—record amounts of gas. we increased deliveries to our largest consumer market, germany, by a third compared to last year, to turkey by two and a half times, to romania by four times. we�*ve supplied additional volumes of gas along all routes, including the ukrainian route, as much as we could. but ukraine�*s gas operator says russia has reduced the amount it routes through the country between january and september by 17% compared to the previous year. russia says the new nord stream 2 underwater pipeline would save europe�*s sticky situation, but only if germany and brussels quickly approved the project to get it flowing. not everyone thinks russia is acting reasonably. we have long been concerned about russia using energy as a tool of coercion and a political weapon. we have seen it happen before and we could see it happen again. i think it would be a mistake for russia to try to exploit this, i think that would ultimately backfire on them and i believe that they should respond to the market demands for increased energy supplies to europe. that comes from more demand as countries emerge from the pandemic, depleted storage tanks after a cold end to the winter, china consuming more gas, and low wind speeds that reduce renewable energy. so right now, russia remains under pressure to increase supply, driven by a volatile market which is powering its bargaining position, too. mark lobel, bbc news. james brokenshire has died aged 53 of lung cancer. we will have more on that on bbc news. right now, we are saying goodbye to viewers on bbc two. the transport secretary has defended changing the number of red list countries to seven, saying vaccination has reduced the risks. grant shapps also said he hopes pcr covid tests can be replaced with lateral flow tests for people arriving in the uk, which will make the process both quicker and cheaper. and that�*s why we are so keen to get it back to a lateral flow test, only possible because so many people are vaccinated, both here and abroad now. and i know that there is real, you know, everyone is really keen to see that done as quickly as possible. and i know that, as i say, my colleagues over at the department of health are working very hard on that and we will be able to say more about it soon, i think. members of the consortium which took over at newcastle united yesterday are meeting at st

ramsey, is back after injury. the midfielder missed last month�*s win over belarus, and damaging goaless draw with estonia, and his return will lift the players around him according to his manager.

hamilton�*s prospects of winning this weekend�*s turkish grand prix have taken a setback. the championship leader will have a ten—place grid penalty for a new engine in his mercedes. he was fastest in first practice in istanbul this morning. we�*re just over a day away, now from the much anticipated world heavyweight contest between tyson fury and deyontay wilder in las vegas. fury is defending the belt he won back in february 2020, but today�*s weigh in will not have a face off. the pair traded verbal blows in the press conference, earlier in the week, with wilder accusing fury of cheating in that fight. so the promoter is keeping them apart. they are not animals, they are sportsmen. i don�*t like face—offs at all, i think they are unnecessary, i think it dehumanises the fighters, and i don�*t think it�*s good for the sport. but here, i did that, not for those reasons, i did it because because i was afraid what would happen and that the fight could be cancelled. you can find more on all those stories on the bbc sport website. james brokenshire has died at the age of 53. he suffered from lung cancer and was the conservative mp for sidcup, he died on thursday evening. we can speak

raising awareness, but this is a disease that he affects people a matter your lifestyle or age, you need to be aware of the symptoms and take action on it. so when it came back that second time, the

the first minister who had worked on the modern slavery agreement which i then took on, and the way that he dealt with that and his sensitivity on those most incredibly difficult issues, but then the support he gave to me as a new minister, i simply would not have been able to do the job without him. he took on the immigration reef, the security brief, housing secretary and of course he was secretary of state for northern ireland and that deal the struck in january 2020, when stormont was restored, he was the architect of that deal and i know when i came in in 2018 when i was made

outcome - conference. i am here to update people on the outcome of- conference. i am here to update people on the outcome of the i conference. i am here to update - people on the outcome of the latest three week review of the coronavirus regulations. and then to look ahead at how we can keep wales safe and keep wales open during the months ahead. three weeks ago, when i was last year, the number of people following it with coronavirus was rising every day in wales. that trend continued into the first half of this three week cycle. it resulted in the highest. of new cases of coronavirus that we have seen through the pandemic for some this was driven by high numbers of infections in younger people, the rates in under 25 is being around four times higher than the rates in people aged 60 and over. the numbers have started to fall back to below 500 cases per 100,000 people but thatis 500 cases per 100,000 people but that is still very high. at the same time we have seen reductions in the number of people in hospital with covid—19. the nhs and social care continues to be under immense strain from non—pandemic and emergency pressures. i would like to ask everybody today to think about how we can support our national health service, thinking carefully about the care we need, and going to an accident and emergency department should never be the first or only choice for every health problem. this week, having closely examined the indicators and taking advice from our scientific and medical advisers, the cabinet has decided that wales will remain at a let level zero. this means that there will be no substantial changes to the rules over the next three weeks, beyond those already announced. that of course includes the covid passport which will become a legal requirement from monday for certain venues and events. everyone aged over 18 will need to show a covid passport proof of a negative lateral flow test if they are entering a nightclub or similar venue indoor non—seated events for more than 500 people, outdoor non—seated events for more than 4000 people, and any event where there is more than 10,000 people present. while there are no substantial new changes, the education minister has set out this week new measures to help schools and colleges minimise disruption for staff and students. from today we will make it easier for a staff and students. from today we will make it easierfor a loved one to be visited in a care home. care homes and care home visiting is have been some of the most challenging issues during the pandemic. from today onwards, care home providers will have the discretion to allow visitors to take lateral flow tests at home rather than at the care home in, itself. they will no longer have to ask visitors to socially distance when making a visit to a room or designated visiting room. restrictions around gifts including food and drink will also be eased. if we can, we will always look for opportunities to make people�*s lives easier while also keeping wales safe. i want now to turn to the autumn and winter months that lie ahead. this slide shows the results of the modelling work carried out for us by swansea university. this is the most likely scenario that the model offers us. it takes into account how people mix, vaccine immunity levels, and how delta variant is behaving. the dotted blue tells us how the model suggested the delta wave would work itself out in wales. the thick black line shows what actually happened in terms of the number of cases reported. as you can see, the model has proved so far remarkably accurate in predicting the way this wave of coronavirus would happen here in wales. we have tracked the model very closely and as you can see, cases have started to reduce again in wales as the model would have predicted, and if we continue to track the model in the way that we have over recent times, then we will see those numbers continuing to reduce over the weeks ahead. now, although that means the modelling forecasts look positive, coronavirus has not gone away and the pandemic is not over. our medical advisers are concerned about higher levels of flu this winter, as well as increases in other respiratory viruses. today, we have published an updated coronavirus control plan which sets out how we will keep wales safe and keep wales open over this challenging period. there are three main ways in which we will do this. through our test, trace, protect system, and through the basic but essential measures we all take in our everyday life to protect one another. i will check with the first of those three defences, vaccination because vaccination remains the single most important defence against the virus, our autumn covid—19 booster programme started at the end of last month. so far, around 130,000 people have already received their booster. vaccinations for 12—15 —year—olds have accelerated this week and the feedback from vaccination centres so far has been very positive. everyday, more people in wales are taking up their offer of vaccination. and it is never too late to be vaccinated in wales. if you haven�*t had your covid vaccine yet, you can make arrangements to haveitin yet, you can make arrangements to have it in one of many centres right across wales and the details are therefore you on our website and on therefore you on our website and on the websites of our local health boards. next week, the health minister will publish an updated vaccine strategy, setting out plans and timescales for the programme and the coming months. level we have at the moment. and that would be very different to last christmas, far more like the sort of christmases that we were used to. all that does depend, as i said in my opening statement, on us all doing the things that keep us safe. i want to thank all of them for the vital work they do, you have helped to spread the snow of the virus time and again. over the recent period. we will need your support again over this winter. our advice about testing if you have symptoms has not changed, get a pcr test effort you have symptoms, if it is positive stay at home and isolate. this is the best way to break the chain of transmission. we have recently seen very high numbers of people coming forward for pcr tests and wales, up to 190,000 people and a week at the end of september. effie level of demand grows still further we will have to make some choices about how we this point to that demand and we are working closely with the rest of the uk to put those plans in place. our updated coronavirus control plan also shows how we will use our ttp capacity to best effect those numbers also go on rising. the third and final set of measures that help to keep us safe from coronavirus and those very practical things we have all learned to do successfully throughout the pandemic, washing hands regularly, keeping social distance, wearing a face covering in crowded public places, working from home whenever possible, meeting people outdoors where possible and keeping end all spaces will ventilate. they make indoor spaces. if we keep doing these things together began keep wales safe and open during this winter. i will now take questions from journalists. that is marco richter that has government covid—19 briefing, we will leave that they are. —— mark drake front confirming they will remain at alert level zero, and that the covid pass or common for things like make clubs and plans for the pandemic over the winter adding he is working closely with the uk, more on that through the day. pig farmers in the uk are warning that tens of thousands of animals could be slaughtered within weeks due to labour shortages in abbatoirs, that are being blamed on brexit and the covid pandemic. the national farmers union said what�*s happening in the sector is a �*human disaster�* for farmers. earlier pig farmer kate morgan explained how difficult it is. we are only doing ourjob, be have fulfilled our contract, this is not the fault of the farmer, it is in the higher and the food supply chain and the farmer is emotionally in turmoil, we are struggling so much at all we are asking for is some help. when do you need help by? what is the timescale? three weeks ago, months ago. the timescale is so critical, people are killing pigs now, we are personally weeks away from making this horrendous choice and it will destroy us. why do you say that? because we farm to feed the nation, this is food waste, people are starving and our government is prepared to throw healthy protein into the bin and that is criminal. we are going to be throwing food in the bin and this is so serious. a court in israel has begun hearing arguments in the custody battle for a six year old boy who was the sole survivor of a cable car crash in italy in may. an italianjudge had given guardianship of eitan biran, to his paternal aunt who lives in italy, but last month his maternal grandfather flew him to israel without her permission. the bbc�*s middle east correspondent — yolande knell is at the court in tel aviv and explained the background to the case yes, it was five months ago, this awful cable car accident in the north of italy. that�*s where eitan biran had been living with his father, who was training to be a doctor. they had gone out to a beauty spot for a family day out, with two of his great—grandparents and his younger brother. it�*s thought, when the cable car accident happened, it was the protective hug of eitan�*s father that saved him from the full impact of the crash. he was the sole survivor, it was considered to be something of a miracle that he survived and he spent several weeks in hospital. now, an italianjudge gave custody to his aunt, a doctor who lives in italy, and then it was just last month that eitan biran�*s grandfather was visiting from israel, he took the little boy out saying he was going to buy him some toys, but he never returned. he actually used an israeli passport that he had acquired for the little boy to take him into switzerland and to bring him here on an israeli, on a privatejet. he has appeared since on israeli television, talking about his decision to do that. this case has been very much in the public eye, it continues to be so, although thejudge has previously asked for privacy of all of those involved to be respected.

place injuly. the unrest was sparked by the jailing of the country�*s former president jacob zuma. the protests were widely seen as a targeted campaign to undermine current president cyril ramaphosa. the riots died down after the deployment of thousands of soldiers. our correspondent nomsa maseko sent this report. crowd shout. the riots that shocked south africa three months ago. nearly 350 people died across two provinces which were affected by violent protests sparked by the jailing of former president, jacob zuma. the unrest began when a heavily armed gang hijacked trucks and torched more than 20 cars on the m3 motorway which links sub—saharan africa�*s biggest port to the country�*s economic hub. today, we went back to these areas. only a handful of the shopping malls that were looted or set alight have reopened. here in thembisa, a township in easternjohannesburg, several people are still missing. their families suspect they perished in a gas explosion at this supermarket. police have said the remains that were recovered here were burnt beyond recognition, and it could take a while before dna tests are concluded. she sobs. translation: i need to find my son's remains so i can have peace. - i have so many questions. i need to know what happened to my son. all i want is to bury him — i need closure. while some families are counting the human cost, many others are trying to rebuild their businesses. this is what remains of this woman�*s business. it�*s the first time she has returned to her clothing shop since july�*s unrest. she is one of many small business owners whose businesses were not insured and is looking to the country�*s state—owned insurance company to bail them out. this was my sole income, this shop, and now all of a sudden it's gone, without any notice or prior arrangement, nothing whatsoever, nothing planned — just cut. experts say it will be another year before the country�*s economy recovers from the impact in the worst violence in post—apartheid south africa. i think we need to understand what happened injuly happened at a time when we were busy trying to navigate a pandemic, something that none of us were ever prepared for in 2020. a lot ofjobs were lost, not just through covid but through this unrest. we know through the looting, the destruction of business premises, shops, retail sector, thejobs that were lost across a wide section of the economy. we need to move quicker to get those people back in to employment so that we start to drive the economy again. while the rebuilding continues, it remains unclear what the real cause of the violence was, which has led many to believe that it could happen again. nomsa maseko, bbc news, south africa. two journalists have won the nobel peace prize. maria ressa from the philippines and dmitry muratov from russia were awarded the prize "for their efforts to safeguard freedom of expression, which is a precondition for democracy and lasting peace". this was the moment the announcement was made. the norwegian nobel committee has decided to award the nobel peace prize for 2021 to... ..maria ressa and dmitry muratov, for their efforts to safeguard freedom of expression, which is a precondition for democracy and lasting peace. they are receiving the peace prize for their courageous fight for freedom of expression in the philippines and in russia. at the same time, they are representatives of all journalists who stand up for this ideal in the world in which democracy and freedom of the press face increasingly adverse conditions. ididn�*t i didn�*t have evil have integrity of elections of guardrails are not put had owned... there are repercussions if you do a study someone does not like and i think the public have realised we will keep doing those stories, journalists will keep doing those stories. that�*s what i hope. what will give us more power to do this. more than 40 million of us across the uk are being offered a flu jab this winter, in the biggest ever flu vaccination campaign from the nhs. the head of the uk�*s energy regulator warns prices will rise significantly next year because of soaring increases in wholesale gas costs. as pig farmers fear for their livlihoods, the government is accused of not doing enough to stop the needless culling of thousands of animals. it�*s a grim statistic. every five minutes someone in the uk is admitted to hospital with a heart attack. most people survive, but the damage done can leave them prone to fresh attacks. so, researchers at addenbrooke�*s hospital in cambridge and the british heart foundation have been trialling a drug that they hope can heal damaged hearts and make people less likely to suffer further attacks. our science correspondent richard westcott reports. julian isn�*t the kind of person you would expect to have a heart attack. a keen cyclist, healthy eating, doesn�*t smoke, in his early 50s, but last summer, out of the blue... a pretty normal day until about 4pm. and i had an enormous pain in my chest, vice—like, and i said to my wife, i feel really, really ill. i lay down and the pain didn�*t go away. at any point did you think it might be a heart attack? i didn�*t think it would happen to me, i thought i was too young, fit and healthy, i had no underlying symptoms. the previous weekend i had been out on quite a long bike ride. so acting as normal, and then like a bolt out of the blue you get a huge pain in your chest and find yourself in papworth. julian hasjoined a drug trial at addenbrooke�*s hospital in cambridge. some people have an immune system that goes into overdrive following a heart attack and actually starts to damage the body, leaving the patient prone to another attack or a stroke. researchers hope this drug will cut that risk. if you think of the immune system as having good cop and bad cop cells, in these high—risk patients we have a very high number of bad cop cells. so in this trial we are trying to increase the good cop cell number so it negates the harmful effects of the bad cop cells. it has been shown to have very good results in other autoimmune conditions like diabetes, hepatitis, hiv. we are just about to give you your injection, now, julian. if this smaller trial is successful the drug will need to be tested in large—scale human trials, but it could one day spare thousands of people the fear of having a second heart attackjust a few months after the first. the weeks after the attack, i lost all confidence in my own body. i didn�*t want to do anything. and it�*s building that confidence again in your own body, being able to do things that you love. if there is a drug that can help people get back to normality, that has got to be hugely beneficial. more than a million asian people fought with the allies during the first and second world wars, and tens of thousands lost their lives. some young british asians think more should be done to remember those from the sub continent who helped britain through the wars. rahila bano from the bbc asian network has been speaking to families who are trying to establish lasting memorials to those who served sumayya awan�*s grandfather bashir served in the royal indian air force as an aircraft engineer during the second world war. here is my grandad, the one with the glasses on one of the aircraft that they were working on in world war ii. but sumayya believes that he and others like him who supported the british war effort are forgotten heroes. when you see the media portraying in people who fought in world war ii, you don�*t really think about south asians or anyone else who fought under the british flag at the time. there were millions over the first world war and second world war. even in television, history books you don�*t see their representation. she�*s not the only one who thinks this. kasim ul—haq whose great grandfather fought in burma felt the same. so he and his father came up with the idea of a permanent tribute, and they�*ve received support from rochdale council. we�*ve spoken to the council about getting a memorial up. we are going to get some metal cutouts, similar to the silent soldiers. they are going to be in the shape of soldiers from the indian subcontinent, they will be painted like the south asian soldier, in their traditional khaki uniforms, so they look as they were at the time when they were fighting in the first and second world war. the men are as tough as the mules, fighters from the punjab _ and north—west frontier, men who have spent - their lives in the open. more than 2.5 million manned the indian army, and more than 89,000 indians died during both world wars. the indian army were involved in every major battle, during 1914—15, before being heavily involved in the middle east in particular. in the second world war, they fought in north africa, they fought up through italy as well, and played a humongous part in the defence of india itself, as the japanese attacked through burma. this is what people who we spoke to think about the memorial. i'm just really excited this, because i'm one of the few people in my familyjoining the army. now maybe more people learning about their heritage, that their grandparents, great grandparents were in the military, maybe they might decide to do the same thing as well. i think it's quite - valid and quite good. it is a thing that happened. there's no point... not that history has been i whitewashed, but it is a very blinkered, narrow view. i think it�*s a good idea, because rochdale is made up of a lot of different communities, and it will be... it will be a big thing for a lot of asians, because we don�*t have anything like that in rochdale. the indian soldiers will go on display in rochdale�*s memorial gardens in time for remembrance day. rahila bano, bbc north west tonight, rochdale. the riba stirling prize, for britain�*s best new building, will be announced next week — in a live programme here on the bbc news channel. the shortlist includes a footbridge in tintagel, a boat museum in the lake district and a university building in south west london. over the coming few days we�*ll be looking at each of the 6 buildings on the shortlist. today is the turn of some housing for key workers in cambridge. let�*s take a look. we created a place that has a real sense of community and where the residents can feel they belong to. i�*m kaori ohsugi, a director at stanton williams. we are the architects for the key worker housing at addington, north west cambridge. the project consists of ten buildings, containing 264 apartment buildings. the focus was on, sort of, creating spaces between the buildings, rather than the buildings. we created a network of interconnecting courtyards, a sequence of spaces of varying character and size responding to the social functions, starting from the public urban space of market square through to the much more community—focused landscape court. so, the buildings are arranged to frame these spaces. the positioning and the, kind of, undercuts that were introduced are intended to create moments of intimacy and a sense of a discovery. this project is key worker housing for the university of cambridge�*s staff and researchers. addington is a mixed—use development. we have accommodation, housing, retail, community centre, school, hotel. the university set out to establish and develop an extension to the city of cambridge which gives an opportunity for all staff and students to live and come andjoin and be part of the success story of the university of cambridge. the development is one of the largest stormwater recycling schemes within the world. all water on the roof is stored and collected and then carried through into the attenuation point within the communal landscape court. to achieve the high demands for the daylight meant that the buildings become quite far apart and the building form quite simple. one of the challenges was, really, for us to create a kind of intimacy and sense of place. addington overall is a fabulous concept. | i am always bowled over. by the fact the university's undertaken this project. the units are well—spaced, well thought—out, love the design, i love the feel of it. it's actually quite a bit - of a luxury to come every day. when i visited a few months ago during the summer, i saw that people actually inhabiting these spaces. there�*s a picnic happening in the landscape court, the children�*s toys on the ground. there must�*ve been a sense of security there and people really inhabiting the spaces. that was the main focus for this project, but also that�*s what it gives this project a meaning. and there will be live coverage of the award ceremony here on the bbc news channel on the 14th of october yesterday we brought you the news that andy murray was in the dog house, after his trainers were stolen — with his wedding ring attached. well — last night he gave an update saying he�*s been reunited with the shoes and the ring. he says the trainers still smell, in his words, "horrific" — but the good news is he�*s back in his wife�*s good books. just wanted to send a quick message to see a huge thanks to say a huge thanks for all of the messages and also to everyone for sharing the story about the shoes and the wedding ring. i had to make a few calls today and chat to the security of the hotel and everything, and a little update for everyone. would you believe it? they still absolutely stink, but the shoes are back. the wedding ring is back, and i am back in the good books. let�*s go! eight locations have made it to the next stage of the contest to become the uk�*s city of culture in 2025. not all of them are cities — with cornwall and
