Hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. With me are author and journalist Yasmin Alibhai brown, and john stevens, whos the deputy Political Editor at the daily mail. Tamaras front pages, lets get stuck in. Dashed tomorrows front pages. The mirror like most of tomorrows front pages has reaction to the governments decision to scrap the eastern leg of the h52 high speed rail line. The paper says the conservatives had previously pledged to build the service 60 times. Well, as part of those revised rail plans, the Yorkshire Post is reporting that the County Will Getjust Two Miles of new high speed track within its borders. The Manchester Evening News examines what this decision means for the city, with analysis on multiple pages of the paper. The guardian is reporting that the number of stop and searches carried out by police has risen by 24 to almost 700,000 in a single year. Its absolutely time to act is the warning from the german chancellor Angela Merkel on the front of the telegraph, as she announces new restrictions to stop a fourth wave in central europe. The Home Secretary priti patel tells the times that the Schengen Agreement which abolished many of the eus internal borders with Member States had left france overwhelmed with migrants trying to reach britain. Plenty to discuss, we will start with the real story and get stuck in with the real story and get stuck in with the real story and get stuck in with the Manchester Evening News.

But some people are really disappointed a while to get that one. But some people are really disappointed in | people are really disappointed in some areas, the links they were expecting to get, they wont get. But in some places, tory mps are quite happy in places like nottinghamshire, who expected to have the disruption of the rail lines being built through their constituencies, but with any of the benefits. And now, because part of this eastern leg has been cancelled, they wont have those problems. You do see some tory mps out there today very happy about this. 0bviously theres an awful lot of labour and tory mps in areas that will no longer get the same upgrades that they had been promised are not happy at all. One of the problems is the government needs to show that theyre living up slogan is notjust a slogan, or else it willjust become an embarrassment like democrat like remember David Cameron had his big society . Thatjust was embarrassing. They need to start showing these changes, and these Infrastructure Projects take a while to come through. Thats why the government is targeting upgrades to existing lines. But they need to show other ways they are making a difference to people, one of the key barometers people turn to is how their high street is doing. Shops are struggling at the moment, theres lots of empty roads and shops. Theres lots of empty roads and sho s. ,. ,. , theres lots of empty roads and sho s. ,. ,. , shops.

But you start looking at the polls and you see there has been some pole in the daily mirror showing the gap is tighter. But you expect now, when we are halfway between elections, that the Opposition Party would be in the lead. I think some people in the labour party will be questioning why are they not further ahead at this time . When ed miliband was in composition democrat competition of David Cameron, he was 15 points ahead. So i think therell be some rumbling from Labour Back Benches questioning whats going on with the strategy that they arent pulling ahead right now.

But if those figures cited about the number of arrests isnt going up, then that is a concern that these tactics, people need to have trust in the police, and you obviously need to use stop and search to be able to tackle knife crime, but if its not properly then there is a problem, and you lose trust in certain communities.

The sport is next, followed by the latest headlines at midnight. Goodbye for now. Good evening. This is the latest from the bbc sports centre. Azeem rafiq has apologised tonight, and says hes Deeply Ashamed for using anti semitic language in messages from 2011 when he was 19. The messages came to light on thursday just two days after the former cricketer appeared at a digital, culture, media and Sport Select Committee talking about his experiences of racism and bullying at yorkshire county cricket club. That testimony shone a light on racism in the sport. And today, sports minister Nigel Huddlestone said cricket could face the Nuclear Option of an independent regulator if the england and Wales Cricket board doesnt act quickly enough to address the issue. He was speaking to the dcms select committee, where mps have been asking more questions following rafiqs shocking evidence on tuesday. I think what we all want is for cricket to put its house in order and get its act together, and sort this problem out. If we dont see sufficient action taken, then we as a government will intervene if they dont get their act together. We have the Nuclear Option of legislating in order to bring in potentially an independent regulator. So, that is probably the route that, if we had to, we could go down. Meanwhile, Somerset County cricket club have reprimanded jack brooks over historical tweets he sent which contained racist connotations. The club investigated two tweets, sent in 2012 when brooks played for northamptonshire. Brooks has unreservedly apologised. Some of the biggest names in tennis are rallying round the call to ask, where is peng shuai . As concerns for the chinese player grow, Serena Williams says the case should be investigated, and its left her devastated and shocked. Peng, whos won doubles grand slams, hasnt been seen since alleging she was forced into a sexual relationship with former china vice premier zhang gaoli. The authenticity of an email purportedly from peng to the womens Tennis Associaiton has been called into question, and the International Tennis federation is among those calling for authorities to investigate. After much speculation, rangers have announced Giovanni Van Bronckhorst as their new manager following the departure of steven gerrard. The dutchman played for rangers between 1998 and 2001, winning five trophies including two league titles, and played for his country 107 times. Following his confirmation, he said he was excited and proud to be back at ibrox. Van bronkhorst also played for arsenal and barcelona before moving into coaching. He later led feyenoord to the dutch title for the first time in 18 years, and his Lastjob In Management was a year with guangzhou in china. Meanwhile, gerrard has been speaking to the media for the First Time Since being appointed aston villa head coach. The former liverpool captain said he was excited to be back in the premier league, and denied that hes taken the job purely as a Stepping Stone to becoming manager at his old club. Youll never hear me saying its a Stepping Stone. For me, im really honoured and proud to be in this position. As i say, im all in. Ill give this Job Everything that it needs for it to be a success. Ill be 100 committed. And i dont think theres anything wrong in football to have dreams and aspirations, but liverpool have a world class coach theyre very happy with. If he was to sign a lifetime deal right now, i would be very happy for them and him. Chelsea stay top of their group in the womens champions league, after 1 0 win over swiss side servette. Sam kerr got the decisive goal at kingsmeadow, as they look to qualify for the knockouts. Theyre on ten points after four games, three Clear Ofjuventus who they face next in the group games on the 8th of december. Brendan rodgers wasnt happy about stories linking him with replacing Manchester United manager, 0le gunnar solskjaer. The leicester boss was asked at a press Conference Today about rumours suggesting he could be lined up to take charge with taking at old trafford. Its really disrespectful to ask that question, when you have a manager in place, a good manager and a good man who is working at the club. And secondly, i cant really comment on it because its something thats real. Im here as the Leicester City manager, proud to be here. There has been yet more history for Fallon Sherrock at the grand slam of darts. Shes now into the quarter finals, after Beating Mensur Suljuvic by ten legs to five in wolverhampton. Before this week, no female player had even got through the group stage of this tournament. Now sherrock will face the former pdc world champion, peter wright, in the last eight. And rory mcilroy tops the leaderboard after the opening day of the Dp World Tour championship in dubai. Mcilroy shot six birdies and an eagle on his way to finishing on seven under. Hes chasing a third victory of the european tours season finale. Afterwards, he said an improvement in his game was down to him having to reset after a disappointing ryder cup. Im a big boy now, ive been around the block a bit, and if i have problems or struggles, i should be able to sort them out myself instead of looking to others to fix my problems. Im just going to try to take responsibility a bit. Thats really what i did after the ryder cup i put my head down and spent a lot of time just on the range, just figuring out, 0k, what is it that i do well . What do i need to get back to . Hes doing very well in dubai, isnt he . And thats all the sport from us for now. Hello there. Whod have thought, by the middle of september, wed still be experiencing temperatures during the middle of the afternoon into the mid teens . Thats exactly what happened on thursday, with temperatures peaking just over 16 celsius in parts of aberdeenshire. Now for many, we are under this influence of high pressure, and a South Westerly Flow is driving in a lot of cloud, but a lot of warmth with it. Yes, a Weather Front into the far north, but it means we start off on an incredibly mild start this morning these are more akin to Daytime Maximums at this time of year. So, double digits quite widely first thing. The cloud, however, thick enough for a spot or two of drizzle, quite a damp, murky start out to the west, and our Weather Front producing some heavy, persistent rain to the far north of scotland and the northern isles. Top temperatures, though, with a little bit of brightness into eastern scotland, maybe northeast england, once again 14 15, maybe 16 celsius. However, that front will gradually sink its way south through the weekend its a cold front, allowing the Wind Direction to change to a northerly and to bring quite a different feel to the weather as we go through the weekend. So on saturday, itll weaken off considerably as it moves its way through Northern Ireland into northern england. Ahead of it, we should get some sunshine. To the north of that, it will be a cooler feel with a scattering of showers temperatures struggling to get into double figures by then. Now, saturday night into sunday, the front continues to sink its way steadily southwards. We can track the isobars all the way back up into the arctic, that cold air is starting to take hold. It means, in sheltered, rural parts of scotland, we could see A Touch Of Frost first thing on sunday morning.
