of what exactly i came for- would actually stand for — i i would 100%, as long as it was beneficial to the i children of tomorrow. and at half past eight, we'll answer your questions about insulating your home and installing a heat pump. that's in �*your questions answered' also in the next hour — sexual abuse claims against the late labour peer lord janner. a damning report says children were let down by the police and state. the elder brother of the manchester arena bomber, salman abedi, leaves the uk after being ordered to appear at the inquiry into the attack. and coming up, the story of amal. a giant puppet of a nine—year—old girl from syria, highlighting the plight of young refugees. good evening and welcome to bbc news. in less than 30 years' time, the united kingdom should be a net—zero country — putting nothing into the atmosphere, which would make climate change worse. that is the target that the government has set out today. anything that does produce greenhouse gases, like industrial processes and aircraft, will be balanced by measures to absorb carbon dioxide, like planting more forests. the plans include £620m grants for electric cars and charging points. it comes ahead of the united nations cop26 climate conference in glasgow, which begins next month. with more, here's our science editor, david shukman. every aspect of life is going to have to change as we go zero—carbon. and now, after a long delay, the government is laying out its plans. and the key to it all is a belief that new green technologies will quickly become cheaper. the market is growing, is going green, and people know that we have the technological solutions to these problems, and they want to go green. and they know that we'll be able one day to bring down the prices of green technology, evs and heat pumps and solar panels, in a way that we so rapidly made microwaves and mobile phones affordable. there's money to support electric cars and charging points, and car—makers will be told to sell a set number of clean vehicles. hydrogen gets a push, especially for heavy industry. it is a clean fuel, depending on how the gas is produced. and there's backing for new nuclear power stations, including at this site in suffolk, but the details aren't settled and critics say that none of this goes far enough. there is still a chasm with this government between the rhetoric and the reality. my fear is this plan will not deliver the fair, prosperous transition we need equal to the scale of the emergency we face. it's very disappointing. we have a climate emergency, . and a lot of these actions are not going to see light of day for years. we need to be acting now, be far more ambitious. - amid all the arguments about tackling climate change, the goal is to reach net—zero, but what is that? well, like every country, the uk emits carbon dioxide, the gas that's driving up temperatures. it comes from heating our homes, getting around, generating power. it's meant to fall dramatically by 2050, but if we don't get down to literally zero, we'll have to compensate by pulling carbon dioxide out of the air. the easiest way to do that is planting trees, but on a far bigger scale than we do right now. with solar panels on the roofs and everything well insulated, this green business park in bristol is an example of lower—carbon living. cycling is made as easy as possible, so what do people make of the government plan to go green? i think that some people are quite privileged and they can spend that money and it's well worth it, but it isn't available for everyone, which is another huge issue. if i knew the outcome of the ins and outs and beginning and middle and end and what exactly i'm paying for, what it would stand for, i would 100% as long as it is beneficial to the children of tomorrow, i would make that sacrifice. an obvious measure is better insulation. many experts want this to be given a bigger push, and the government's independent climate adviser says more needs to be spelled—out. it is important to say. that we have a new plan for getting to net—zero, and it looks like it is- a more comprehensive one. but what we don't have, sadly, is all the detail on how it's- going to be delivered. the government was running out of time to announce its policies. hosting the cop26 climate summit in glasgow next month, it is in the global spotlight. so, promising action isn't enough. david shukman, bbc news. joining me now is bob ward, director of policy and communications at lse's grantham research institute on climate change and the environment. what do you make of what's been announced today, doesn't go far enough? it’s announced today, doesn't go far enou~h? �* , . announced today, doesn't go far enou~h? v . ,

some of those details are not really for them to decide. in many cases, it depends on how the private sector response to these policies for things like the roll—out of electric vehicles. those depend on manufacturers and those who are going to be selling these products to the public to see how they respond. so those details need to be worked out, and until we see those details, i'm not sure this will be enough to get us to that target. if will be enough to get us to that taruet. , ., , , will be enough to get us to that taruet. ,, , , ., target. if you “ust rely on the rivate target. if you

climate change is it's far more costly to do nothing. we're seeing the impacts all around the world, including in britain. what we know about many of these new technologies that we're bringing in, they also benefit consumers, and its electric vehicles which are much more reliable. there is an upfront cost, and the government hasn't really laid out how to help poor consumers with the cost of electric vehicles. but it does thinks what happened in a few years from now, after manufacturers has learned a more efficient way, it will become easierfor more efficient way, it will become easier for consumers more efficient way, it will become easierfor consumers on more efficient way, it will become easier for consumers on lower incomes to afford these. is easier for consumers on lower

million today to help people who want charging points at home and increase the infrastructure around the country. but again, this will depend on private companies, and what we will have to see is is this strategy clear enough that it convinces the private sector that it can invest with confidence? because that's the private sector that will get us through this in the end, and if they don't feel this is a clear enough strategy, we will be stuck. many thanks indeed. more than a fifth of the uk's green house gas emissions come from heating buildings, homes and offices. from next april, the government will be offering some households in england and wales a subsidy to help meet the cost of replacing gas fired boilers with low carbon heat pumps. so, what are they and how much do they cost? well, it will vary depending on the type and size of your home. they are costly — between £6,000 and £18,000 — but the government will give households £5,000 to bring the price down. £450m is being set aside for this scheme over the next three years, but that will only cover the installation of 90,000 pumps. up to 25 million homes are currently heated by gas boilers. here's our consumer affairs correspondent, colletta smith. it's time for the final checks on a newly—installed boiler. and like the vast majority of homes, this one runs on gas. james's company fit about 1,000 boilers a month across the country. all people want to do is turn the tap on and get hot water and turn the heating on and get heat. and it's a light box on the wall. thomas just forked out for a new home when he needed to replace the boiler. so even with an extra five grand from the government, there is no way he could have matched that with his own cash. you may want to make a greater decision, but you're limited by cost, i suppose. across the street, 91—year—old lottie made the same choice. she got a new gas cooler because it's cheapest. not everybody's got that. it costs over 2,000 l for this only last year. so, it's draining your bit of savings, you see. - heat pumps work by taking warmth from the ground or the air, squashing it, which makes it harder, and then pumping it round your house. margaret and john fitted an air—sourced pump to their home in anglesey, and she's delighted with the results. oh, my goodness, the difference it makes. actually fantastic. yes, it reduces our running costs, but it is costly to do it. it's good that the government is waving a little tiny green flag. it is not enough. for many people, a heat pump is an expense they cannot afford. it'sjust not going to be generous enough to help them do it. we're talking about households for whom investments and long—run returns on investments and their properties, it's just a foreign language. we all know that for the whole country to cut emissions, we will need to change our trains and our buses and even the cars we drive, but lots of people haven't clocked that to cut around a fifth of our emissions, that change will have to take place right here in the heart of every household. james thinks the effort of installing insulation and the radiators would put most people off. 0nce into the transformation that would have to go on and the people that would need to be done in an existing property, then it becomes, right, well, maybe not me, then. every home is different, so there's no easy solution but, despite this, extra money and the government still need homeowners to be willing and able to pay for the change. colletta smith, bbc news, in pontefract. we'll have a lot more on heat pumps and what you can do in your own homes to insulate and reduce your carbon footprint at half past eight, when we'll be putting viewers' questions to andrew shepherd, managing director at tophat, who build zero carbon homes and factories. and laura bishop, chair at the ground source heat pump association. the government has released the latest coronavirus figures for the uk. 43,738 new infections were recorded in the latest 24—hour period. there were another 223 deaths, within 28 days of a positive test. nearly 49 and a half million people have received the first dose of the vaccine and more than 45 people have received the second jab. 78.9% of the population aged 12 and over have been fully vaccinated. so today's figures for new cases are slightly down on yesterday's. however, infection rates in the uk have been rising throughout this month. as this graph with data collected up to 18th october shows, the number of people newly testing positive for covid in the uk has been rising to around more than 40,000 every day. there have been about as many new cases over the past three months as there were between october and january last year. the uk now has one of the highest rates of covid infections in europe. as this data up until 9th october shows, there's a significant gap between the uk and other major european nations in terms of new daily cases per million people. so where are we heading with coronavirus rates in the uk? i'm nowjoined by professor rowland kao, data scientist from the university of edinburgh. should people be worried about rising rates? figs should people be

thank you very much indeed. _ it's been a very comfortable night for manchester city as they swept aside bruges in the champions league. joao cancelo got citys first of the evening after a great through ball from phil foden. city were 2—nil up before the break thanks to a riyad mahrez penalty. kyle walker added another before 19—year—old cole palmer scored the fourth just two minutes after coming onto the pitch. bruges did pull one back, but mahrez got his second of the night ot make it 5—1 to city. and liverpool have made a fantastic start against atletico in madrid — a mohammed salah effot was flicked in offjames milner, and naby keita just added a second. so around 15 minutes played in the spanish capital — liverpool 2—0 up. celtic picked up their first points in the europa league this season by beating ferencvaros 2—0. the game was held much earlier than usual due to policing pressures. celtic also required their fans to have covid passports to enter the stadium, and carried out random spot checks. 0n the pitch, it took almost an hour before the deadlock was broken at celtic park with portuguese midfielderjota setting up japan forward kyogo. david turnbull forced balint vecsei into an own goal for celtic�*s second goal, with ten minutes left. the win leaves celtic third in group g. 68% of premier league players are now fully vaccinated against covid—19, with 81 % having had one jab. there has been a large increase in the uptake of the vaccine in the last month after mounting pressure. i think they've got responsibilities to themselves. to their families into their friends. we don't want any more games cancelled, we don't want any squads that are short that can't fulfil fixtures because half of them got covid. we can avoid that now. you can choose the time to get vaccinated, you can't choose the time when you're going to have that chance encounter with covid, and if you're a professional sports person, it could knock up something very big in your sporting life. to cricket now, and scotland are closing in on qualification for the super 12s stage of the men's t20 world cup. they beat papua new guinea by 17 runs, to make it two wins from two in their qualifiers, after their opening day victory over bangladesh. joe wilson has this report. having excelled by beating bangladesh on the weekend, scotland had a different challenge in the desert of oman. proud opponents. ritchie barrington, 13 years of scotland international hit three sixes. and it seemed feasible. when barrington was up first 17, they lost energy, good total but they were relieved it wasn't more. they attacked with the bat and did not work. whose hand grab that catch, ritchie barrington. scotland took five quick wickets but then they played a defiant ending. it kept things on the edge. and to his fury, they deflected the ball for the wicket. the end, 140 it all out and scotland's record, 100%. joe wilson, bbc news. if scotland beat 0man on thursday, they'll go through as group winners. that's because bangladesh beat the tournament co—hosts this evening. they set 0man a total of 154 and went on to win by 26 runs. and after naming his squad for the upcoming autumn internationals yesterday, eddiejones is already having to make some changes. jones left out several big names, including saracens hookerjamie george, who has now been recalled to the squad after luke cowan—dickie picked up an ankle injury playing for exeter chiefs at the weekend. joe marchant replaces anthony watson who ruptured his acl. jones said he is using this period as a stepping stone for the rugby world cup in two years time. that's all the sport for now. we'll have more for you on the bbc news channel later on. gavin, thanks very much. a court has heard that a man acted "recklessly and dangerously" when he organised a flight carrying the argentine footballer emiliano sala. prosecutors at cardiff crown court said david henderson enlisted a pilot who was neither qualified nor competent. sala and the pilot david ibbotson died in the crash injanuary 2019. mr henderson denies endangering the safety of an aircraft. he has previously admitted a charge of attempting to discharge a passenger without valid permission or authorisation. police investigating the killing of sir david amess have been gathering cctv from shops and businesses near the home of his alleged killer. cctv footage from a convenience store in north london shows a man believed to be the main suspect in the case walking towards gospel 0ak 0verground station. 25—year—old ali harbi ali is being held under the terrorism act and officers have until friday to question him. nhs england has announced that children aged 12 to 15 will be able to get vaccinated at national hubs — not just at school. this follows concern over the recent increase in cases in schools and colleges. it's hoped they'll be a large up—take over vaccines during the half—term holidays. while in scotland, the national clinical director said the government was "on track" to get everyone boosted six months after their second dose. while in wales, 10,000 pupils missed school last week for covid reasons. geoff barton is the general secretary of the association of school and college leavers. he joins us live from bury st edmunds in suffolk. thanks forjoining us. what do you make of this movement to get childrenjabbed in general hubs? i childrenjabbed in general hubs? i think it's probably a good move. when we had the decision that we would vaccinate 12 to 15—year—olds with their consent, we were told it would be completed by the end of october. i know from talking to had teachers today that that isn't going to happen because they don't have teams lined up to come into mid—november. so, this is about catching up on time. heaven only knows, but if it means those young people who haven't had the chance of vaccination yet can go to a hub next week, that will be a good way of reassuring them

night before saying they change plans. that appears to be happening irrespective of where you are, and you've also got examples of the teams and driving without sufficient vaccines. having to leave early. we really have to sort this out because it's notjust about really have to sort this out because it's not just about vaccination, it's not just about vaccination, it's about public confidence

groups. that's why there needs to be an urgency from the government. there needs to be a clear campaign about why vaccination matters. and there needs to be a much stronger in a line and why this campaign happens, spooking so many young people. frankly needs to stop. in the government can help by creating exclusion zones of.— exclusion zones of. many thanks for our exclusion zones of. many

in fact, some of that rain could be quite heavy this evening and overnight in east anglia and the south east. clear spells in the north means that the temperatures will dip away, perhaps to single figures in northern ireland and parts of scotland. but the nights across wales and much of england will still be very, very mild. now, tomorrow, it's going to be a changeable day. we have sunny spells in the forecast, but also bursts of heavy rain. and, in fact, thunderstorms possible across areas of england and wales during the course of the morning and into the afternoon. another very mild day

thursday. hello, this is bbc news. the headlines. the government has set out its plans for cutting carbon emissions to zero by 2050 — including a big push towards electric vehicles. grants of five thousand pounds willl be given to help households switch to heat pumps — as ministersplans to end the sale of new gas boilers by 2035. an inquiry finds that child abuse allegations against the late labour peer lord janner were not properly investigated because of multiple failures by police and prosecutors. nhs england announces children aged 12 to 15 will be able to get vaccinated at national hubs — notjust at school — as concern grows over a rise in cases. a public inquiry has found multiple failures by police, prosecutors and council officials resulted in child abuse allegations against the late labour peer lord janner not being properly investigated. lord janner died in 2015, facing criminal charges relating to nine people who had been in children s homes — that spanned back 3 decades. our home affairs correspondent tom symonds reports. greville — later lord — janner, mp for leicester, well—known, a keen magician, a man who was repeatedly accused of sexually abusing children. you thought it was black and white, didn't you? you haven't a clue, have you? i haven't a clue! one of the first was mark, who, in 1991, told police lord janner had assaulted him as a child. it was like being embarrassed, feeling dirty, and it's something you wanted to keep private. the scars, you can't get rid of, you know, knowing that if it had gone to court, you would have had yourjustice. there were two key moments which prevented that, according to the report. in 2,000, police didn't pass the statements of mark and another man to prosecutors. that was "serious and inexcusable", the inquiry found. in 2006, a prosecutor decided not to push ahead with the investigation, a decision which was "unsound and strategically flawed". this is very recent history. it's not 50, 60 years ago. it would never be acceptable, but we're talking about investigations that failed to properly pursue multiple allegations of child sexual abuse, on the basis that they were children in care and wouldn't be taken seriously. lord janner wasn't arrested, he remained an mp, and he wasn't charged for nearly a decade — by which point, he was too ill to stand trial. he died shortly afterwards. justice wasn't done. not for the accusers or the accused. no trial, and alleged victims abandoned attempts to sue in the civil courts. lord janner and his family had no opportunity to mount a defence. his son daniel said the report... but leicestershire police directed its response at the alleged victims. i'd like to start off with an apology to the victims involved in this case and also to commend their bravery, their bravery for coming forward. and we should've secured the charges against lord janner far earlier than we did. lord janner always denied the allegations, but because attempts to get to the bottom of them were "shut down", in this inquiry�*s words, the truth can never now be established beyond doubt. tom symonds, bbc news, at the child abuse inquiry. a former soldier, who was on trial in belfast over a fatal shooting during the troubles, has died after contracting covid. dennis hutchings — who was 80 — had been charged with the attempted murder ofjohn pat cunningham in county tyrone in 1974. his lawyers had tried to have the case against him thrown out because of his poor health. the elder brother of the manchester arena suicide bomber has left the uk ahead of an appearance at a public inquiry he had been ordered to attend. 28 year old ismail abedi has always refused to answer questions from the inquiry into the attack, which killed 22 people in 2017. 0ur north of england correspondent judith moritz has more. ismail, bbc news, can i ask you a few questions, ismail? this is the last sighting of ismail abedi, when i tracked him down in manchester a year ago. why won't you help the inquiry, ismail? why won't you speak to the inquiry? he wasn't prepared to answer my question then answer my questions then, and he also refused to co—operate with the public inquiry into the arena bombing. the bomber�*s brother has been ordered to appear at court this week, but that now seems highly unlikely. we understand that he is not currently in the country and there is no indication as to when he will return. ismail abedi clearly has important evidence to give to the inquiry and we urge him today, sir, to make contact with the inquiry legal team — either directly or through his own legal representatives. as he surely must understand, if he does not do so, the public may infer that he has something to hide and so, sir, may you. ismail abedi was arrested on the day after the attack in 2017. he was found to possess extremist propaganda, but was released without charge. last year, greater manchester police said they were still investigating ismail abedi and were going to make further attempts to speak to him. but the bbc understands that a few weeks ago, he left the uk, on a flight to the middle east. and some of the families bereaved by the arena bombing have told us they're furious that he's been able to go abroad. a friend of salman abedi's, ahmed taghdi, has been ordered to appear too, but has also refused to comply with the court so far. unfortunately, he attempted to leave the country yesterday and, as a result, was arrested, so we have a high degree of confidence that he will attend the hearing on thursday. a convicted terrorist who is alleged to have radicalised abedi, abdalraouf abdallah, has also been ordered to appear at the inquiry. tomorrow, it's expected that he will be brought to court from prison to face questions. judith moritz, bbc news, manchester. now on bbc news, your questions answered. the government has set out its long awaited strategy to help emissions ljy awaited strategy to help emissions by 2030. grants from up to £5,000 to install low carbon heat pumps to replace gas boilers would you be able to take up the offer of a heat pump? to answer your questions on all things heat pump and household related — with me is andrew shepherd, managing director at tophat, who build zero carbon homes and factories and also, i'm joined by laura bishop, chair at the ground source heat pump association. thank you both so much for your time tonight. we've got lots and lots of questions here. andrew if i canjust start off with one who says who can claim this grant? 0nly people on low income or all households with gas boilers? is there sort of a maintenance tester anyone have a? well so far the answer is currently unclear. what we do know is that they will be available from april 2022. there's a period of time where i'm sure will start to see more detail around the grant. what government have said is the funding support will be targeted to those who need it most. will be talking about in terms of total grants are talking about is a maximum of 90,000 homes benefit from the grant. which homes benefit from the grant. which is a lona homes benefit from

insulated or have no insulation whatsoever. they are absolutely the place to start targeting money. there he pumps won't work in those houses that need insulation in the first place was up we should

0ne of carbon sleep not carbon dioxide. one of the main options in one of the best options and what we use is obviously heat pumps. the heat pumps are incredibly efficient. we talk about efficiency and how much energy is produced. electric power boiler obviously benefits from using 100% of the energy but air source heat pumps are even more efficient than that. they create four times more energy and heat energy than they actually produce electricity. so they are incredibly efficient. even more efficient than electric boilers. that's one of the main reason the government is looking to drive the use of air heat pumps. we've touched on this, how can people in upper level flats in cities install a heat punch when there is no outer space?- cities install a heat punch when there is no outer

regular migrant arrivals along the shore, there is considerable local debate. this man is a ukip councillor, and he wasn't going to be meeting little amal. the event that's taking place in folkestone today is all about raising awareness, about being welcoming to refugees. you would rather folkestone was less welcoming? personally, yes. but i would welcome them if they came over here with a passport or equivalent documentation. but by folkestone harbour, the crowds were out. this refugee was getting a hero's welcome. these interactions are about empathy and trying to be curious about somebody you don't know. and welcoming somebody that you don't know. she may only be a puppet, but she's already proved she's a provocative and powerful piece of theatre. david sillito, bbc news, folkestone. i'm back at about 1030 with a look at the papers for tomorrow. now it's time for a look at the weather with tomasz schaffernaker. well, it's been a bizarre day of weather for many of us today. really blowy out there, but at the same time, quite warm in the sunshine. in fact, temperatures got up to 21 degrees in east anglia and the south east. and another mild day on the way tomorrow. not quite so mild, but warm enough certainly for the time of the year. here's the reason — a current of tropical air you can see spreading into the uk all the way from the southern climes, and if we track that air, the origins are here in the caribbean. you can see caracas there in south america, the leeward and the windward islands, so this air has made a journey northwards of thousands of miles. it's obviously cooled off, but it's retained some of that warmth and the energy in the form of the strong winds and also some heavy showers that will be also continuing across the uk over the next 24 hours or so. so, a mild start across england and wales once again, and then we're watching out for these clusters of rain, these thunderstorms that could sweep across the southern half of the country during the course of wednesday. and really gusty conditions as well, but there'll be some sunshine, too. i think overall a very changeable pattern, changeable picture on the way for wednesday. and then it's all change for the second half of the week, certainly the end of the week. wednesday and thursday, it's going to feel quite a bit colder. the wind is going to change direction. in fact, low pressure will be sitting on top of us. if you track the isobars, these lines coming from the north, that's where the wind will be coming from. so, rathertropicalair coming in from the south and the south—west, we've got colder north atlantic air, even some wintry showers across the hills of scotland. and on top of that, we've got gusty winds, high tides along the north sea coasts. gust of wind in some areas could approach 40—50 mph. this is colder airfrom the north. it's going to feel very, very different on thursday. look at the temperatures. maybe eight degrees in aberdeen, 12 in birmingham, 13 in london. quite a drop, and it's that wind that's particularly going to make it feel chilly, i think, on thursday. and then thursday into friday, high pressure nudges into the uk. high pressure means that the weather will settle down. it'll push the stronger winds out into the north sea, so this is where that cold wind will be. here, winds will be lighter across the bulk of the uk. there'll some sunny spells, and i think it'll feel a little less cold and bright on friday. bye— bye. this is bbc news. i'm christian fraser. britain leads by example. ahead of the un's pivotal climate change conference in glasgow, the government sets out a bold plan for a zero—carbon society. it's a giant step forward, but is it enough? borisjohnson says the government will deploy billions to change the british economy. green is good. green is right. green works. poland's prime minister accuses the european commission of blackmail in a bitter row with ursula von der leyen over the supremacy of eu law. in haiti, the gang that kidnapped a group of american missionaries has demanded a $17 million ransom for their return. and a month on from the first volcanic eruption in la palma, the lava is still flowing.
