the 6th of january capitol riots. jack and i were e—mailing each other prior to january the 6th, where i warned him that his platform was allowing a coup to be staged. that e—mail was sent the day before, and then it happened, and i haven't heard from him since. and 80 years after women were first conscripted into the army — we hear memories of the teenagers who found themselves in the thick of world war two. this morning, the first draft of an agreement setting out how countries around the world will cut emissions has been published, laying out what negotiators hope will be the outcome of the cop26 talks. the seven—page document urges nations to set out their long—term strategies to reach net—zero emissions by the middle of this century and curb global warming to 1.5 five degrees celsius. it also encourages richer nations to scale up support for poorer nations. but this document isn't the final outcome of cop26. it will now have to be negotiated and agreed upon by countries attending the talks. borisjohnson is returning to glasgow today to meet those negotiators. he's urged nations to "pull out all the stops". our chief political correspondent adam fleming is in glasgow. adam, asa adam, as a first draft, is it looking positive or disappointing? well, the organisers and the drafters of this document say they have been unashamedly ambitious and that they are putting in a big ambitious opening bid that could be whittled away over the next few days rather than starting with a lowball offer that they hope to add to. in terms of the big thing about limiting the increases in global temperatures, whether it is 2.0 or 1.5 degrees by the end of the century, which are the two targets of the paris agreement, what this initial draft does is look initially a bit vague, but once you read it a couple of times, you realise they are trying to put in place a whole load of processes that will pressurise countries into coming up with ever more ambitious targets for cutting their greenhouse gases. so for example, you have a road map that everyone agrees to about where you want to get to by 2030, and if you want to get to by 2030, and if you have a road map, people can be judged on whether they are sticking to the journey or not. you have an annual meeting of ministers to look at the latest pledges, you would have scientists constantly totting up have scientists constantly totting up what the pledges would mean for the increases in global temperatures, and then in 20 years time the un secretary—general would host a summit of world leaders, like the one we saw last week in glasgow, to keep feet to the fire. so rather than getting people to sign up to specific numbers or pledges, it is about creating a process that ratchets up what everyone is doing. then there are a few other things that are a bit more explicit than these documents have been in the past, an explicit call to phase out coal power and to reduce subsidies forfossilfuels. it is not a specific pledge, but the drafters will say it is unusual for a document like this to go so far. equally, this being of loss and damage, compensation for countries that are already feeling the effects of climate change caused by historic omissions by richer countries, that, the organisers say, it is the first time there has been a reference to that in there. some of these things are quite controversial, so the organisers know that there will be some criticism from some of the countries attending here. i think thatis countries attending here. i think that is actually their strategy — publish this ambitious document, get the opponents to say why they are opposed to it, and that means the 197 parties at the conference only outcome, ratherthan 197 parties at the conference only outcome, rather than the uk government or the presidency owning the outcome. that is the strategy at work here. �* ., the outcome. that is the strategy at work here. �* . ., , work here. adam fleming, thanks very much indeed- — well, while borisjohnson is due to arrive in glasgow later, he is facing more trouble in westminster over the row regarding the extra work some mps do on top of their parliamentaryjobs. labour is calling on the government to open a standards investigation into the conservative mp sir geoffrey cox. they say this video may show the former attorney general using his commons office to carry out private work, which labour sat would be a "brazen breach" of parliamentary rules. 0ur political correspondent helen cattjoins us from westminster. it might be more comfortable for the prime minister up in glasgow than westminster today — how serious are the allegations facing sir geoffrey cox? , ., ' , the allegations facing sir geoffrey cox? , , ., , the allegations facing sir geoffrey cox? , ., , ~ ., the allegations facing sir geoffrey cox? geoffrey cox is the mp for west devon and torridge. _ cox? geoffrey cox is the mp for west devon and torridge. yesterday, - cox? geoffrey cox is the mp for west| devon and torridge. yesterday, there was a lot of criticism of some of the outside work that he does, as he is a barrister, he has been working for the british virgin islands government at an inquiry looking into how the overseas territory is run. earlierthis into how the overseas territory is run. earlier this year, into how the overseas territory is run. earlierthis year, he apparently went to the british virgin islands during lockdown to take part in this inquiry. that received a lot of criticism, but it wouldn't have broken any parliamentary rules. labour, though, thinks that this remote appearance that you have just described, which took place in september this year, might have done, and that is because they say, if you look at the footage which is available online, and there is a steal on the front of the times newspaper, they say that it appears that he may have been using his office in parliament, and there are strict rules about using your parliamentary office, the parliamentary office, the parliamentary estate for commercial interests. it is one of the things that 0wen paterson was criticised for and was told broke the rules, that he used his parliamentary office for business meetings on a number of occasions. 0f office for business meetings on a number of occasions. of course, they were face—to—face, this is remote, but labour have written to the independent parliamentary and its commissioner, who investigates mps' behaviour, and asked her to open an investigation into whether he has broken the rules. this is what sajid javid had to say earlier. is it ok to do a virtual meeting for your private employer from your house of commons office? look, i'm not going to get into any individual case. . i am asking you about the principle. if you have an external interest, i can't see why you would be - using anything funded by the taxpayer. - that includes your office? i think it would include your office space, yes. you were working forjp morgan. did you ever do virtual meetings for them from your house of commons office? i have had phone calls. i might've received - a phone call or something. but if you are saying, _ did i use parliamentary computers or anything else - for something like that, i wouldn't have done that. and if you had done it, you would have thought it was the wrong thing to do? you are trying to draw me down a particular line on mr cox... i no, it'sjust interesting, because it is something he has done that you have chosen not to do. you don't know he has done that, allegations have been made. - you are responding to allegations that have been put out there. - it does look like his office, though, doesn't it? that is not for me. that is something that should be looked at by people - that are independent _ and the appropriate authorities. so, helen, is it clear where the line is? are mps allowed to do other jobs and send e—mails from the parliamentary estate, or take phone calls from the parliamentary estate? well, mps are allowed to have other jobs, but there are these rules about the use of your parliamentary office, and that is for the parliamentary standards commissioner to look at in this instance. she will now... she may or may not decide to open an investigation, labour have asked her to, in effect. so downing street, though, is saying that this is a matter for the parliamentary standards process, although the chief whip has spoken to sir geoffrey cox and he echoed the downing street view that mps needed to be visible to their constituents. fix, needed to be visible to their constituents.— needed to be visible to their constituents. �* , ., ., ~ , constituents. a number of other mps are bein: constituents. a number of other

not dying down at the moment, it raises more and more questions. helen, we are going to leave it there, we are seeing pictures of borisjohnson, the prime minister, leaving for glasgow. as we are hearing, a lot of political pressure on the prime minister over all these allegations around the outside activities of conservative mps, and thatis activities of conservative mps, and that is part of the delegation, the prime minister has announced he is going up to cop why some are saying, you know, will it be more politically easy for him to be there today, to try and divert attention? 0thers today, to try and divert attention? others are saying that he is trying to move these complex talks in glasgow forward if he can. the health secretary has also been speaking today about covid—19 and has defended the new compulsory vaccination rules that take effect for care home workers in england at midnight, saying they're "all about patient safety and protecting vulnerable people". yesterday, sajid javid announced it will be compulsory for front—line nhs staff in england to be fully vaccinated against covid by the beginning of april. from midnight tonight, unjabbed care home staff in england cannot work unless they are exempt. the government estimates there are still 32,000 of them who aren't fully vaccinated. this rule will also apply to anybody who enters a care home for work, including any agency workers and tradespeople. jon donnison has this report. for care homes across england, many already short on staff, tonight's midnight deadline has been looming. see, you've still got some edges here, look. here at hill house nursing home in croydon, all workers, except two who say they have a medical exemption, have now been vaccinated. but for some, they took some persuading. watching the news, understanding statistics, i think it made me understand that it's notjust good for myself, but also for residents, to protect them. also, my colleagues, my family, people around me. in croydon, and across england, there has been a big push to get care home staff vaccinated. but there are still gaps. in croydon, we have 94% of care workers that have taken the initial jab. 88% has taken the double jab. we've provided a plethora of initiatives in order to get there. but the government says there are still 32,000 care home workers in england who haven't yet been fully jabbed. unless they have a medical exemption, they won't be able to work in the sector any more until they're double vaccinated. today's my last day of caring, which is really sad, because i love myjob and i'm quite annoyed about it, to be fair. in regards to this vaccine, i feel like it's being forced on us, or on me. and i don't agree with that, to be fair. and i kind of think it's against human rights. losing people like delma means some care homes could be stretched in terms of staffing. but the government says the compulsory vaccination policy is needed to protect care home residents. and from april, all front line nhs staff in england, unless medically exempt, will also have to be fully vaccinated against covid—19 to keep theirjobs. unions are warning that too could lead to staff shortages. jon donnison, bbc news. joyce pinfield from the national care association says the move will make it even more challenging to recruit care workers. through the mandatory vaccinations and pressures that we've been put under during the pandemic, more staff are leaving the sector. we are trying to bring new workers into the sector from all over the country, but this simply isn't working. and now, if we are going to lose 32,000 due to mandatory vaccinations, it's almost becoming a situation where there will be no care. it's going to be very difficult. already it's very difficult for people who are the most vulnerable in society, who need care. i'm nowjoined by dr crispin fisher, who's a gp in herefordshire. thanks for your time today. the rules coming into falls for the nhs in spring, but on care homes, do you have a view on whether tonight's deadline should be stuck too, is at the right decision? i deadline should be stuck too, is at the right decision?— the right decision? i think it's the riaht the right decision? i think it's the right decision _ the right decision? i think it's the right decision that _ the right decision? i think it's the right decision that care _ the right decision? i think it's the right decision that care home - right decision that care home workers should be vaccinated. as for the deadline, that's a more difficult one. i wonder whether there is room for a little bit of leeway here, because to hear about that lady leaving the care service after many years is really sad, and the same thing will possibly happen in the nhs. but should they be vaccinated? yes, ithink in the nhs. but should they be vaccinated? yes, i think they should. i know a care home where they did a fantasticjob keeping covid out of their home for many, many months, and then just recently an agency care worker came in who had not been fully vaccinated, covid was introduced, and some residents died. so it is really important stuff we are talking about here, and i think compulsory vaccination, it really does need to happen. but the deadline tonight, if we are going to lose thousands of care workers, that needs consideration. find lose thousands of

people time to think about it, have conversations with their colleagues and their employers, and i'm sure a lot of them will reconsider. sadly, some of them want. —— some of them will not. i think they are wrong, but they are entitled to their views, are they not? if they are of the opinion that they will not be vaccinated, it could be a career ending decision, which would be tragic for them, and for the nhs, because we simply cannot afford to lose staff at this juncture. it is because we simply cannot afford to lose staff at this juncture.— lose staff at this “uncture. it is a balance of

taking the covid risk? yeah, and how do we quantify that? it is really - do we quantify that? it is really difficult, is it not? what we do know is that covid was transmitted by staff to patients who didn't have covid in the hospital sector, that was inevitable in the heat of the pandemic, where it was really all going on. and i also know from talking to patients that have been in hospital, and relatives of patients, that they are very anxious when their loved ones are in hospital, perhaps with cancer, stroke, a chest infection, whatever, and they are meeting a lot of staff, the interactions between human beings in hospital, there are an awful lot of them every day, and people were really nervous about whether or not their relatives were going to pick up covid from all these people coming to tend to them. just briefly, if there is this huge shortage of staff, should the government feel it by changing the visa regulations to be able to get more people in, if we are going to lose a lot of staff both from care homes and the nhs?i lose a lot of staff both from care homes and the nhs? i do lose a lot of staff both from care homes and the nhs?— lose a lot of staff both from care homes

from overseas, and our care homes come across were from overseas, and oui’ care homes are come across were from overseas, and our care homes are full of people from overseas, so absolutely that needs

has voted to extend the use of covid passes to cinemas and theatres from next week. the scheme currently only applies to nightclubs and large events, such as rugby games. visitors will have to show they are fully vaccinated, have tested negative for covid, or have recently had the virus to enter the venue. eluned morgan is the health and social services secretary for wales. thanks very much forjoining us. if you don't mind, can i ask you first of all on the nhs and social care front, obviously these things are devolved to the different nations — wales is not currently following the england path of making compulsory vaccinations needed for social care and health staff, what is your view on that? ~ ., ., ., on that? well, our health and care workers have _ on that? well, our health and care workers have reached _ on that? well, our health and care workers have reached a _ on that? well, our health and care workers have reached a point - on that? well, our health and care. workers have reached a point where we have got about 95% of those workers covered by both vaccinations. i understand that in england, in parts of london it is down to about 82%, so that is a significant difference, and i think therefore there is an issue in england, but that is up to them to fix that. what we have been doing is spending a lot of time trying to persuade people we are in the business of persuasion rather than mandation, and we have been trying to convince people that this is the right thing to do, and we will not rest at 95% — we will keep on speaking to people to convince them this is the right thing to do. find this is the right thing to do. and on our this is the right thing to do. and on your vote _ this is the right thing to do. and on your vote to _ this is the right thing to do. and on your vote to extend the use of covid passes to cinemas and theatres from next week, why is that needed? well, we have got the highest rates of covid in the united kingdom at the moment, despite the fact that we are at what england would consider a plan b, so we are asking people, it is compulsory to wear face coverings in indoor public places, we are asking people to work from home, we have lots of different measures where we are really trying to make sure that people take a lot more precautions, and yet our rates are still very, very high. so we are trying to ensure that we can keep these venues open through what are going to be some very challenging winter months ahead, and the way to do that, we think, is by introducing these passes. and what has been interesting is that we have already introduced these for, for example, rugby matches, and there has been a huge amount of support from the public. in huge amount of support from the ublic. ,

need to go early, and that is what we are doing, trying to limit the spread by introducing what are very limited measures, but lots of different, small, limited measures may make a difference, and despite that, we are still at very high rates, so we are very concerned, going into the winter, that the nhs could become overwhelmed, and that is why we are taking these steps. qm. overwhelmed, and

of standards in parliament. and the pressure on parliament and mps over the way that things operate. we can speak to martin bell, who stood as the mp for tatton on an anti—corruption mandate. martin bell, thank you very much for joining us, formerly of the bbc parish too! when you look at the events playing out in the last few days, there was talk of a potential anti—corruption candidate standing in 0wen paterson's seat, what do you make of it, do you think nothing has changed? i make of it, do you think nothing has chanced? ~ ,., make of it, do you think nothing has chanced? ~ , changed? i think in some ways nothin: changed? i think in some ways nothing has — changed? i think in some ways nothing has changed, - changed? i think in some ways nothing has changed, but - changed? i think in some ways nothing has changed, but in i changed? i think in some ways i nothing has changed, but in other respects they are worse now than they were in the late 1990s, because i served for three years on the standards committee, a number of very difficult cases came before us, which were duly scrutinised, but all our recommended penalties were accepted by the full house of commons. what did not happen was a political party, still less the governing party, trying to intervene to block one of our findings, so governing party, trying to intervene to block one of ourfindings, so in that respect i think the situation is more grave now than it was then. is there a need for people to come into parliament with a clean slate from the outside, as you did, and to think that is really possible in this day and age? don't you have to find a site like figures who would stand as that sort of candidate? i stand as that sort of candidate? i trust that any candidate for any party is not going to have too much baggage. if you are asking, should there be an independent for whom the other parties stand their candidates down, i don't think it actually applies in shropshire north, because 0wen paterson is not seeking re—election. i think it would only apply in a very egregious case where apply in a very egregious case where a member had been found against by the committee and by the full house. in terms of outside work on the parliamentary estate, it is very difficult to draw these lines. i think this is one problem very easily solved. mps obtain a basic salary of about £81,000 per year, which is well below the average of their constituents, but if we allowed them to have an extra 20% on top of that in outside earnings and declared them, i think mps who need to keep their credentials up for some professions, it covers them, it covers people doing a little bit of journalism — it doesn't cover high earners going abroad to fill their boots. so i think it could be a very simple rule in, you can set the percentage, but something like that. given the unpredictability of political life, just because you have got a job that earns you a lot of money, if you want to keep that carry a gun, isn't it fair enough that you are able to? -- that you are able to? absolutely. -- if ou that you are able to? absolutely. -- if you want — that you are able to? absolutely. -- if you want to _ that

would recommend the 2096 maximum of outside - going. that is why i would recommend l the 2096 maximum of outside earnings, the 20% maximum of outside earnings, which would cover someone trying to keep up with development in a profession, with plenty to spare. i don't think we need to be too puritanical, but i think it is reasonable to expect members of parliament to spend nearly all the time in their constituency and working on behalf of their constituents, and not to go swanning off abroad, except perhaps for one holiday a year, like most of us. is there a danger with this that you will simply persuade more people to leave politics and to entice fewer good people into politics? he. leave politics and to entice fewer good people into politics? ha. i good people into politics? no, i don't think— good people into politics? no, i don't think that _ good people into politics? no, i don't think that applies - good people into politics? no, i don't think that applies at - good people

sufficiently to the interests of their constituents. if someone like thatis their constituents. if someone like that is replaced by a full—time mp with minimal outside interest, so long as you choose the right candidate, and i would also say that, you know, the sanction in this lies with the people — it is the people who can cleanse the system, and every now and again they can rise up in rebellion, as i know. and rise up in rebellion, as i know. and itake rise up in rebellion, as i know. and i take it, finally, _ rise up in rebellion, as i know. and itake it, finally, you rise up in

the cop26 climate summit is published by the un. the document urges countries to strengthen commitments to cut carbon emissions within the next year. it comes as borisjohnson is heading back to glasgow to meet delegations, as part of attempts to bridge the gaps preventing a new global deal. a call for an investigation into conservative mp, sir geoffrey cox as labour claim pictures may show him breaking parliamentary rules. the vaccine deadline for care workers — from midnight tonight those without two jabs won't be allowed to work in the care industry in england. during a tech conference, prince harry says he warned the head of twitter about political unrest in the us — just 2a hours before the 6th january capitol riots. 80 years after women were first conscripted into the army, we hear memories of the teenagers who found themselves in the thick of world war two. sport, and for a full round up, from the bbc sport centre, here's catharine. good morning. yorkshire head coach andrew gale has been suspended pending an investigation into an historic tweet, as the club continues to deal with allegations of racism. lord patel, the new chair at yorkshire says he hopes to have a process in place by the end of the week for whistleblowers to come forward, to share any instances of discrimination. tabassum bhatti who is now 37, signed a contract at yorkshire at the age of 1a, he has told the bbc about his experience. i think it's become clear that it's been going on for a long time and yes, it has been pushed under the carpet, you know? like i said, i was there in 1998. there were incidents prior to me being there. there's been things happening in the last 20 years up to present. so i think that's pretty clear, to be honest, that it has been overlooked. yorkshire chair lord patel has said allegations made by individuals about their experiences need to be properly investigated, and that anyone who may have suffered issues should come forward, and these will be considered carefully. england take on new zealand later in the t20 world cup semi—final. captain eoin morgan says his side are looking forward to a repeat of the 50 over final they played at lords in 2019, when england won by the tightest of margins. morgan thinks england's strength in depth in the 50 over game is rubbing off on the t20 side. i think it would be a really strong

thrashed swiss champions servette 7—0 in the women's champions league. the blues, who led 6—0 at half—time, showed the gulf in quality between the sides with some impressive attacking play. fran kirby scored twice,and so did sam kerr. melanie leupolz, jessie fleming and guro reiten also got on the scoresheet. it's the first time anyone's scored seven in a womens champions league group game. arsenal midfielder emile smith rowe has said it's crazy to be training alongside the likes of harry kane and raheem sterling. smith rowejoined the england squad yesterday ahead of their final two world cup qualifiers. smith rowe — who'sjust 21 — has been in superb form with three goals in his last three premier league games. he's been called up afterjames ward—prowse and marcus rashford withdrew from the squad. england are expected to seal their place at next years to seal their place at next year's world cup fials after this round of matches, which start with a home match against albania on friday. it is crazy to be honest, like i say it is crazy to be honest, like i say i play against them, but wearing the same training kit and passing the ball to each other, it is crazy to be alongside these great players. yeah, i'm a bit speechless, but you know i'm going to get used to it this week and enjoy it as much as i can. that is what it looks like to have a dream come true. emma raducanu's history—making season is over — she was beaten in her first match in linz in austria. us open champion and top seed, she lost the first set 6—1 to before winning a tie break to level the match at a set apiece. she then took a medical timeout in the deciding set, before she eventually fell to the world number 106, raducanu will now look towards working with new coach torben beltz in preparation for next season. andy murray is still going though — he's into the second round of the stockholm 0pen after beating norwegian qualifier viktor durasovic in straight sets. murray now faces top seeded italianjannik sinner later today. thank you marks & spencer has reported pre—tax profits of £187 million for the six months to october, against losses of nearly 88 million for the same period last year. it has now raised its annual profits outlook, but says there are still problems over extra costs involved with supply chain issues. let's speak to our business correspondent alice baxter. so obviously better news this time than last time, a year ago, alice but still a lot of problems in global supply chains ahead? global supply chains ahead ? absolutely global supply chains ahead? absolutely right. reasons for marks & spencer to be cheerful, this morning. shares were up 20% wednesday morning, on the back of these better than expected results, pre—tax profit for the six months up to october, 187.3 million compared to october, 187.3 million compared to a loss for the same period last year of over £87 million. significant increases were made in the food division, that continues to be the cash cow of the company. sales increased by 10.4% but happily for the company, the changes they have been implementing in their clothing and home division sector have started to pay dividends, full price rose 17.3%. analysts pointing to that partnership with 0cado, the online food deliverer as a driver. some saying they were late to that online home delivery party but they are making great strides, they have chose to prioritise their downloon presence as well, again perhaps a bit late to the party, but the results showing that that change of focus, that pivoting of focus is really starting to work. the chief executive steve rose says the hard yards of driving long—term change are beginning to be borne out in our performance, but, as you hinted at, there are some serious head winds on there are some serious head winds on the horizon, which the company is acutely wear of. steve rowe saying given the history of m&s, the company wouldn't overclaim their progress, they are planning for increasing supply costs. like many companies we have been talk about. lorry driver shortages are posing challenges, also global supply chain issues, m&s not immune to those as well, but the company adding they have deployed several recruitment projects, and, incentives they hope will atract new drivers and it believes its food services business is comparatively well placed, they are saying. they believe it is resilient enough to deal within those shortages and weather the short—term storms. they are also adding that drives, they are hoping that long—term growth and loyalty will help to keep and recruit more drivers offering a better service and quality through that food delivery service 0cado, so the food side of the business still the main driver, behind this seethe at m&s, but this pith in focus towards trying to boost its home department, and its clothing, really showing in these results, as i was saying pre—tax profits up over 187 million compared to that big loss in the period last year.— period last year. lots of change there. thanks _ period last year. lots of change there. thanks very _ period last year. lots of change there. thanks very much - period last year. lots of change there. thanks very much alice. | electric cars will be the future of road travel, but new research says there aren't enough specially trained mechanics to repair and maintain them. by 2030, petrol and diesel vehicles will no longer be sold, but the institute of the motor industry says we'll be facing a shortfall in more than 35,000 qualified technicians. tim muffett has been investigating. i'm at an electric vehicle training facility in north london. when it comes to the total number of cars on the road, electric and hybrid vehicles still account for a small proportion, but it's the growth in the sales of electric cars that has convinced many that electric is where the future lies. now, that will pose a lot of challenges on the charging infrastructure, and we hear a lot about that, but not so much about the challenges of maintaining and servicing those electric cars, and there are fears that with current rates of training, there is going to be a shortage of people able to do just that. james likes his electric car, but getting it serviced and maintained involves a long journey. i bought the car in north wales and they don't repair or maintain. they just sell them. so i've always come across the border into england to chester, to have the car looked after and maintained. a 30 mile round trip, which james says it is only viable option. it is a bit of a faff. there was actually one time where the car broke down and it was recovered back to my local dealer. they turned round and said they couldn't accept it because they can't repair it. so, it was then shunted back off to chester for repair. the battery is surrounded in a nice metallic cage. mechanics who work on an electric vehicle, or a hybrid like this one, need special training. the most important thing is training. there are high voltage batteries, motor generators, so we are talking a couple of hundred volts at a minimum, about the same voltage as mains electricity. these mechanics believe the cost of this training will pay off in the long term. we are seeing a very large amount of vehicles coming into our workshop, electric and hybrid. they are broken down. i personally don't know anybody who is electric or hybrid trained. it's becoming the future now. it's going to become the future more quickly. and i personally don't know many people who are trained in electric vehicles. one, two, three phases. have you had people coming in with electric vehicles which have been misdiagnosed? yes. we see about two to three a month. i had one last week actually. we've found the car had a problem with a water pump and someone diagnosed and air gasket. most of the technicians have been trained on petrol or diesel cars. from 2030, the government says the sale of new petrol and diesel cars will be banned. so the increase in the sales of electric vehicles, which we are already seeing, is expected to accelerate. but the institute of the motor industry predicts that by 2030, we will need 90,000 qualified technicians to service those electric vehicles. the problem is with the current rate of training it predicts there will be a shortfall of more than 35,000. electric vehicle manufacturers often sell service and repair plans as well. but neil runs an independent garage. he says many are bringing in their electric and hybrid vehicles to him. even some of the main dealers, they don't all know how to work on electric vehicles. even though manufacturers sell them, not all the techs are trained in them. it becomes an issue to book them in. that is where we come into play, they come to independents like ours. although electric vehicles have fewer moving parts than those powered by petrol or diesel engines, and often require less servicing, they bring their own challenges. the battery cells and things coming out now are new technology and they are changing, evolving all the time. in order for us to get wiring diagrams, data, what we need to fix electric cars is difficult at the moment. which one of those has got the plus and minus? a not—for—profit organisation provides car safety. it runs electric car training courses for anybody in the auto industry. this session is being run for members of staff. there is a skills gap and many predict it will get worse by 2030. how confident are you that skills gap can be closed? i think it can be. i think what it does need, any significant investment needs to be brought in to train the industry to be able to deal with repair maintenance services of electric vehicles. the significant investment going into infrastructure for charging, that same investment needs to be made into skills. powering electric vehicles is one thing. keeping them serviced and maintained is the other huge challenge facing this industry. tim muffett, bbc news. now the government says it has already launched a number of initiatives aimed at boosting the number of mechanics who are qualified to service and work on electric vehicles and it's also endorsed an industry wide scheme, designed to do just that. but for those mechanics who are going to undergo the special training, what it is like, how different is it? britney, you are about to start your electric vehicle training, aren't you, why you have decided to do it? after i finished my level three apprenticeship, i decided tojust do hybrid and electric vehicles, because that is the new technology that we're working towards, and i just want to be fully prepared and safe to work on them. you mentioned safety there, i mean the batteries, some of them are 400, 800 volts, that is higher than mains electricity which is 230 volts or so, how big a deal is that? i mean, there's like 94% of technicians out there that are not fully traied to work on high voltage vehicles, and i want to work safely, so i'm doing the training with north london garages, so i can know what i'm doing and to keep myself safe and my colleagues. best of luck with it, and it's very interesting indeed. thanks ever so much indeed. well, as we heard, there are fears that unless more people such as britney do undergo this training, that in years to come there will be a real shortage of people able to service and maintain electric vehicles, and clearly, there is the direction in which the car industry is going. we are hearing as reported by reuters the vermont environment ministry spokesperson said germany will not sign the zero emission cars declaration, a huge part of their manufacturing economy, with very successful car industry in germany but they are saying they won't sign that zero emission cars declaration, the first draft will go through a lot of change, it is just the beginning before the end of this week with a number of drafts and negotiations to come as yet. week with a number of drafts and negotiations to come as yet. the husband of iranian detainee, nazanin zaghari—ratcliffe is into his 18th day of a hunger strike outside the foreign office. richard ratcliffe wants to put pressure on the prime minister to meet iranian delegates at the climate conference this week, to demand freedom for britons detained in iran — but there are now concerns over his wellbeing. peter henley has more. even though she's not been well herself, barbara radcliffe has been determined to keep making the trip up from hampshire to support her son on his hunger strike. apart from anything else, i'm going up every day to check my boy. 0n the train she shows me the whatsapp messages the family send to keep spirits up, including nazanin in iran. mainly our conversation is about gabriella, and it's heartbreaking watching her on whatsapp, watching us bringing up her little girl. yeah, and there's nothing we can do about it. nazanin was arrested at tehran airport five years ago, taking then baby gabriella to see her parents for the first time. she totally denied the charges of conspiring against the iranian state. after serving a five yearjail term, she has been stopped from leaving, with new threats to lock up again. are you 0k? yeah. richard ratliffe's hunger strike outside the doors of the foreign office is now entering its 18th day. he was visited by the labour leader keir starmer this week. it's acknowledged the british government owes the iranians £400 million over a cancelled arms deal. and barbara radcliffe knows which politician she wants to tackle over that. the one you really want is borisjohnson? yes. when i see him i will be speaking to him. firmly? i hope i will have the courage to do that, yes. i spoke to him twice in a nice polite way. but this time, i won't be rude, but i think i'm going to ask him why he can't pay the money. the camp has become so well established, they even receive parcels, but not food. this is a hunger strike, as richard's brother—in—law, a gp, reminds us. we are keeping as close an eye on him as we possibly can. it's full on, it's very busy here, it's difficult. and all that we have at our disposal is, you know, checking in with him, talking to him, making sure he's as well as he can be under the circumstances. he's determined, isn't he? he's a very, very determined person, yeah. so how much further can he stick this out? an iranian delegation visits the foreign office on thursday. you get more stubborn. the longer it goes on, you're less able to make that decision. so, it's not... i think we've got a danger point beyond which we don't want to go. we're now into the uncertainty point, where, you know, it's definitely damaging, but it's hopefully not permanently damaging. you want to see the iranians, don't you, when they come on thursday? i want to be here on thursday, yeah, yeah. i'm not backing down. peter henley, bbc news. prince harry has said he warned twitter bosses about potential political unrest in the us — just a day before the capitol riots in january. he was speaking at a tech conference about the impact of social media. mark lobel reports(tx next) mark lobel reports. my twitter, my notifications have blown up. in his latest salvo against hate on social media, the former army captain, now misinformation warrior, joined a 33 minute live session for wired's rewired tech conference entitled the internt lie machine. where it emerged referring to these angry riots at the us capitol onjanuary 6th he is also, it seems somewhat of a soothsayer. have you ever had a chance to present your case to the leaders of these companies, mark zuckerberg, jack dorsey? no, not directly, not personally. jack and i were emailing each other prior to jan 6th, where i warned him his platform was allowing a coup to be staged that we know was sent the day before and then it happened and i haven't heard from him since. in march twitter�*s chief executive jack dorsey conceded during congressional testimony that yes, his platform had played a role in the storming of the us capitol, but added... prince harry warned a small group of accounts is causing a large amount of chaos online, sullying the internet for future generations, by filling it with hate, division and lies. misinformation is a global humanitarian crisis. as you quite rightly pointed out, i felt it personally over the years and i am now watching it happen globally, affecting everyone, not just america, literally everyone around the world, and the, i guess the scariest part about it you don't need to be online to be affected by this. leading to this personal swipe on somewhat well trodden ground for harry, at sections of the uk press. they have successfully turned fact based news into opinion based gossip with devastating consequences for the country. asked for his solution to the problem, he's not as he and meghan have done, conceding it is far too addictive for that, but instead he says it is for big companies and advertisers to kick out the troublesome few whose hate and lies are then spread far and wide. mark lobel, bbc news. 80 years ago, an act was passed in parliament which led to more than seven million women being called up to help with the world war two effort. it was the only time in british history that women were compelled to serve, taking up roles from mechanics, ambulance drivers and air raid wardens. john maguire has been to meet some of them. archive: in the concrete emplacements at a gun l site in the london area, | battle—dressed ats girls are in training for active service. they were teenaged girls on the verge of womanhood in a time of a world war. i wanted to do something for the war effort and i think most people did. i wanted something exciting to do and to learn a skill. i wanted to be a driver. daphne was in search of a world outside her norfolk village. i'd like to have gone at 17 and a half, but my mother wouldn't sign the form. but at 18 you could go. so immediately i was 18, i wanted to go. gracejoined for love. it sounds a bit silly but one of the reasons was i had a boyfriend. he was in the army. my first boyfriend, of course. and he had been told he was going to be sent abroad. and i thought if ijoined the army, i might meet up with him again. i didn't like the idea of him being sent away. all signed up to the auxiliary territorial service, the ats. young, keen to learn and to understand army ways. so i went to norwich and my mother came. and i remember she was buying all new underclothes, pyjamas and everything. we didn't realise, of course, we were going to be issued with all this stuff. the great coat was five and the jacket was five. the jersey were one and the knickers was two. 3,100. 225! grace worked on anti—aircraft guns. you see, when the two chaps who were on the guns had to sit with their backs to the actual target. they had to do as they were told from us girls. so in actual fact the girls were targeting the aircraft, but the men were doing the actual firing. all three are featured in a book on the ats, titled army girls. daphne's copy arrived as we were filming with her. are you on the back? yes! aha! pride of place, daphne. and all have fond memories of their wartime service, despite the dangers they faced. it was a wonderful experience. you were there and you never thought you might be killed. i certainly wasn't terrified. you were just doing yourjob. when you are told to take posts, of course, you run to get to your instrument as fast as you can, and all you girls are running at the same time. you just got to grab your gas mask and your sealed helmet, take the covers off your instrument and start searching the skies. their training meant they learned the skills they could only dream of. if you put a three tonne bedford on my drive now, i could strip the engine down and put it back again. we did everything. you see, the carburettors were all sealed on army vehicles to a0 mph because of the petrol situation. but staff cars and ambulances weren't sealed. so i could put my foot down and do 80! they have a very high wheelbase. as you are coming up to 70, you had to push it through that last bit, otherwise you'd get a wobble. and what they remember most are the friends they made, despite or often because of the hardships they faced together. i know we had some dreadful times during the war but i enjoyed being with so many girls. we could have a laugh. when we were travelling in the 1500 weights in the back, we'd sing. we used to sing in descant, you know. because of the ats, it stood me instead for a wonderfuljob, because i had a wonderfuljob with the gpo all my life. it was the best university i could have gone too. it was wonderful. it wasn't all beer and skittles, as they say. there were some sad times, very sad. and that was when the war was really brought home to you. when the site was in action, we never thought about the people in the aircraft that were being brought down. it was the enemy, it was there caught in the searchlights and it was there to be destroyed. you didn't think about anybody in it until later. and 80 years since they firstjoined up, many of their memories are as vivid as ever. memories they remain determined to share so that we remember the sacrifices their generation made. john maguire, bbc news. let me bring you a piece of news coming in, thata £3 let me bring you a piece of news coming in, that a £3 billion mass legal action against
