i i can only assume it's- the same approach to allow early—years providers, - at this particular point in time, to go by the wayside. labour says the new plan is a sticking plaster, which rings hollow, but the government says the hubs will be an upgrade on sure start and will help children of all ages and their parents. helen catt, bbc news. a prominent adviser to the government on covid—19 has said he is "very fearful" there will be another "lockdown christmas" as he urged the public to do everything possible to reduce transmission of the virus. professor peter 0penshaw, a member of the new and emerging respiratory virus threats advisory group known as nervtag, said case numbers and death rates are currently "unacceptable". do everything possible in your control to try to reduce transmission. don't wait for the government to change policy. and the sooner we all act, the sooner we can get this transmission rate down, and the greater the prospect of having a christmas with our families. a leading teaching union is calling on the government to improve covid vaccine availability for 12—15 year olds, and to demonstrate details of a plan b for the coming winter months. the association of schools and college leaders says this autumn term has been "extremely difficult" and some of their members have been left "on their knees", in having to deal with the consequences of the virus spreading at high rates amongst some groups of pupils. pepe di'lasio is the head teacher of wales high school in rotherham and is also the president of teachers�* union, the association of schools and college leaders. thanks forjoining us. tell us in more detail how difficult it has been, the first half of the autumn term and what has made it so difficult?

we need to make sure that all parents can access these family hubs so it is important that on wednesday — family hubs so it is important ii�*ué�*ii on wednesday the government also invests in core services, central services like health visiting which can reach out to families and make sure that every family has a fair start. we are calling for much greater investment in health visiting and we want to c 33,000. what sort of a difference can help visiting make to those early years? it is very important that every family receives at least five visits that they are entitled to so that parents can spot any mouth concerns and they can build a trusted relationship with the families so they are able to open up about perinatal mental health or any concerns about their child�*s development and for that to need a consistent health visitor that can build the relationship but at the moment there has been a cut to public health funding which means we have seen health visiting numbers declined by 30% since 2015 so to make sure that parents are aware of the support that is available to them, to make sure they are being signposted to these family hubs, we need to make sure those core services are funded as well. horse services are funded as well. how much more _ services are funded as well. how much more do — services are funded as well. how much more do we _ services are funded as well. how much more do we need?

david willis, bbc news, los angeles. police believe a four—year—old girl who disappeared almost a week ago in the australian outback was abducted from her tent. a reward of a million australian dollars — which is more than half a million pounds — has been offered for information on her disappearance. the bbc�*s sydney correspondent phil mercer explained the details surrounding this case. i think this reward, this huge 1 million australian dollar reward, is pretty unusual to be offered so early in an investigation. it is an indication, i think, as to how worried the authorities are about cleo smith. she was last seen on a family camping trip about 550 miles to the north of perth just over a week ago and the authorities are of the belief that she was taken sometime during the night. a brief timeline — the family arrived at this campsite north of perth. the young girl went to bed at about eight o�*clock in the evening. at 1:30 in the morning she woke up for some water. at 6:00am — so a few hours later — she was gone. and what leads the authorities to believe she was snatched during the night is that the zip had been opened, apparently to a height well beyond that of a four—year—old girl. this is a massive search. the search near the campsite has now been wound down, it is now a broader criminal investigation, not only spanning the state of western australia, which is about ten times the size of the united kingdom, but this is a nationwide hunt for four—year—old cleo smith. and the authorities in western australia say that her suspected abduction strikes right at the heart of the community. but they do have grave fears for her safety. the headlines on bbc news... the chancellor�*s promising to spend nearly £7 billion improving transport in england�*s city regions outside london, as one of the spending pledges unveiled ahead of next week�*s budget. there�*ll also be half a billion pounds to support families in the budget, but the labour party calls it a "smokescreen". a fresh push for people to get their boosterjabs. it comes amid fears over rising coronavirus cases in england. italy�*s former interior minister, matteo salvini, has gone on trial in sicily, accused of preventing a migrant boat from docking in august 2019. mr salvini, the leader of the right—wing league party, is charged with kidnapping and dereliction of duty. a number of other former government ministers in italy have been called to give evidence. the us military says it has killed a senior al-qaeda leader in a drone strike in north—west syria. a us central command spokesman said that abdul hamid al—matar had been successfully targeted using a reaper drone. it�*s been estimated that uk households bought more than 3 million pets during lockdowns but are some of those dog owners now abandoning their pets, as their former lives resume? yes, according to rescue charities, who are reporting not only high capacities in their shelters, but also owners pretending their pets are strays in order to get rid of them more easily. sara rosser is head of welfare at hope rescue — a centre in wales that is experiencing high levels of what it calls "fake strays." this just sounds a horrific thing to do. this 'ust sounds a horrific thing to do. ~ , ., ., this 'ust sounds a horrific thing to do. ~ , . ., ,., , do. we understand that sometimes eo - le do. we understand that sometimes peeple have _ do. we understand that sometimes people have genuine _ do. we understand that sometimes people have genuine reasons - do. we understand that sometimes people have genuine reasons for i people have genuine reasons for giving up their dogs, but this is such a frustrating way of people to do it because we are getting dogs into us that we have no history for and they are jumping into us that we have no history for and they arejumping the into us that we have no history for and they are jumping the queue for people who are genuinely waiting on our waiting list for space. tell people who are genuinely waiting on our waiting list for space.— our waiting list for space. tell me about the situation _ our waiting list for space. tell me about the situation at _ our waiting list for space. tell me about the situation at your - our waiting list for space. tell me about the situation at your centre j about the situation at your centre and how can you tell that they are owners pretending that they are strays, is it easy to get a sense of that?
