come at 16 yesterday and close to that in eastern scotland today. but this is the week ahead, a fairly typical place anywhere in the uk where temperatures will steadily dip. we are in for ourfirst sustained cold wintry snap. at the moment, we are in the meld atlantic air, south—westerly winds, high pressure to the south keeping weather fronts at bay and there is sunshine around. this was in denbigh an hour ago, sunshine around. this was in denbigh an hourago, pretty sunshine around. this was in denbigh an hour ago, pretty blue skies along with the east of england, along with eastern scotland. but generally, a lot of cloud. towards the weather front, we have got some rain, rain and strong winds for shetland and the far north of scotland continued throughout the afternoon. elsewhere, very little change. if you have leaden sky and drizzly weather, it is likely to stay that way. even where it is great or sunny, it is mild, that is the theme across the uk throughout the rest of today. but it is all about to change —— it is grey. this weather front turns more intense across scotland this evening and overnight. to the south, still very mild, low cloud or breaks will be filled in with low cloud and mist and hill fog. further north, we have that heavy rain. and that heavier rain marches through scotland quite quickly tomorrow morning, northern ireland and clears into the afternoon to reveal much brighter blue skies, a few showers and significantly colder. to the south of that, misty low cloud first thing, is coming i'm going, largely dry weather. a tale of two halves, day transition during the day on saturday. that is because that weather front is sinking southwards, another weak one behind bringing showers. behind that one, we get the colder air. as you can see for yourself, it is coming right the way down from the arctic so at this time of the year, that is pretty cold air. a bit of a shock to the system sunday morning to particular in the north with a frost, and for all of us, feeling much colder on sunday. that is a big change and a keen winds rolling down the north sea bringing showers mostly around the coast. both west and east, but also the south—east of england may see showers. in the north, wintry over high ground and temperatures after 15 and 16, 7-9. high ground and temperatures after 15 and 16, 7—9. just a little below average for the time of year. a more widespread frost into monday morning, and that is the trend for the rest of the week. it looks largely dry and fine for the first part of the week, but mid week onwards, it could turn very windy and even colder still and quite wintry. a reminder of our top story: cricket chiefs are holding an urgent meeting about racism in the game. in england. have a very lovely afternoon and we willjoin the bbc news teens where you are. good afternoon. over the last few weeks, english cricket has been engulfed in a racism scandal, now, australia are undergoing their own crisis. their captain tim paine has had to step down just weeks away from the ashes after it emerged he had sent sexually explicit text messages to a female colleague four years ago. paine decided to resign as captain when he became aware that details of the incident in 2017 were about to be made public. he said the cricket australia investigation in 2018 had exonerated him, but he "deeply" regretted his actions at the time and to this day. he said standing down was the right thing to do for him, his family and for cricket. the first test starts on december the 8th in brisbane. to australian cricket fans i'm deeply sorry that my past behaviour has impacted our game on the eve of the ashes. for the disappointment i have caused to fans and the entire cricket community. i apologise. i've been blessed with a wonderful, loving and supportive family and it breaks my heart to know how much i have let them down. ironically, tim paine was brought in as captain to steady the ship for australia after the ball tampering scandal. i spoke to aussie cricketjournalist adam collins and asked him, where does his resignation leave australian cricket7 how australian cricket7 damaging it will be just 18 days away how damaging it will be just 18 days away from an ashes series, losing the player who has set them straight since the ball tampering scandal in 2018. he has been instrumental that has repaired the brand of cricket but the board have realised it is unsustainable for him to stay for what happened in 2017 before he was captain. as concerns for the safety of the chinese player peng shuai grow, the chair and ceo of the wta has said the situation is highly suspicious. peng hasn't been heard from since alleging she was sexually assaulted by a high profile former chinese politician. the authenticity of an email allegedly sent from peng to the women's tennis associaison — has been called into question by the chair, steve simon. he spoke to the bbc earlier. when you come out with allegations such as she did and the detail associated within those allegations and then suddenly receive an e—mail reflecting that everything is ok, i am great, there is no issues, there is no allegations here in place. i just have to struggle with that. rory mcilroy�*s still in contension after his second round of the dp world tour championship in dubai. he's a shot behind the leaders. that is because he made a mistake at the18th, putting it in the water. he recovered to double bogey the hole. that put him at nine under for the tournament. unfortunate for mcilroy, who'd led after a great first day. he's won this event twice before, in 2012 and 2015. let's take a look at the leaderboard on day two in dubai. after that double bogey for mcilroy he's on nine under for the tournament, two underfor the day. he's a shot behind irishman, shane lowry, who'sjoint leader after an eagle at the 14th helped put him on ten under. alongside him is englishman sam horsfield and americanjohn catlin. it's the season—ending tour championship in the lpga tour too with georgia hall in the mix heading into today's second round in florida. she made five birdies and an eagle to sit on five under par. three shots behind south korea'sjeon—geun lee. hall's solheim cup team—mate leona maguire is also on five under. to formula 1 and max verstappen was quickest in first practice in qatar, lewis hamilton fourth. there was another disappointment for mercedes who have been denied a review of an incident in brazil where verstappen was said to have pushed hamilton off the track. mercedes were hoping for a time penalty for red bull. significantly hamilton wearing a special helmet with the rainbow flag on it. human rights remain a contentious issue in qatar, especially lgbt rights, so hamilton sending a strong message there. just 1a points between the two drivers in the standings going into this weekend. that's all the sport for now. plenty of preview on the men's and women's autumn internationals on the bbc sport website. that's bbc.co.uk/sport. the indian prime minister, narendra modi has announced the scrapping of agricultural reform laws that have seen a year of protests by hundreds of thousands of farmers. the measures allowed growers to sell produce beyond government—regulated markets. but they hurt small farmers who took to the streets in large numbers. earlier my colleague rebecca jones spoke to palaniappan chidambaram, the former finance and home minister of india. he told her that he was not expecting today's announcement. i was surprised, not by the timing but by the fact that the prime minister announced their withdrawal. the prime minister, as you know is a very determined, stubborn, inflexible man who doesn't usually admit mistakes. even today, he didn't admit his mistake, he didn't apologise to the farmers. be that as it may come timing didn't come as a surprise to me because i think he has got feedback from around the country that they will fare very, very poorly in the next round of elections in early february. i think the fear of elections impelled the prime minister to make the announcement today. that prime minister to make the announcement today. that is very interesting. _ announcement today. that is very interesting, so _ announcement today. that is very interesting, so you _ announcement today. that is very

decision, just as about three weeks ago, when they lost by elections, mid—term elections in several constituencies which were electing new members. they suffered a big loss and the day the official results came out, with an hours they reduced the prices of petrol and diesel, which they had stubbornly refused to do for nearly six months. just like that, today after one year of agitation by farmers, they have suddenly announced their withdrawal of the farm laws, even three weeks ago, the prime minister in a speech said those that the farm laws were anti—cultural, anti—farmer. so why the change, the only reason for the change is the feedback his party will do very, very badly in the next round of elections. i will do very, very badly in the next round of elections.— round of

will learn the opposite lesson. the lesson that people have learned, must learn is the only way to make this government mend its ways, change its wrong policies and bring it back to the part of parliament of democracy, consultation, discussion and debate. that will defeat it out every position at the election. the lesson will be learned by the people when they go to the polls in early

refused to look at the core of the laws. why are we talking about small farmers? small farmers of this farmers7 small farmers of this country do not have any surplus to sell in the market. so the small farmers are not going to make too much money by selling their produce at the market. the market surplus is available to middle farmers and what we call large farmers. those farmers will have suffered greatly by this loss. and in the small farmers' case, one of the three laws allowed for contract farming. all the small farmers would have become contract farmers would have become contract farmers and over a period of time they would have become tenants. the big companies would have taken over the farms and the small farmer would have virtually become a tenant. the title may be in his name, but he will actually be working for a large company which will tell him what to plant and what to sew and what price at which it should be sold. the small farmer was not benefiting by any of these laws. we've been reporting in the past few days the large number of people who've been trying, unsuccessfully, to enter the european union via the poland—ukraine border. many people also try to cross from bosnia into croatia — from bosnia into croatia only to be repeatedly turned back. the bbc�*s fergal keane spent time with one family as they prepared to try again. near the croatian border a refugee family is waiting to cross. akram was a television engineer in kabul. zahra was a policewoman in herat, but fled in 2016. baby sara was born in greece, where the family had a previous asylum request denied. we are country—less, we are illegally all the world. what should we have to do? they say they've been pushed back from croatia 39 times — once, they allege, with force. they came and hit my husband. and i said, "why you are hitting my husband?" and they hit me also in my face and said, "shut up." who will help us? the life become like hell for us, for all of us. some migrants wait in abandoned factories, from which they can easily reach the border at night. others in temporary reception centres, like this run by the united nations. how concerned are you by the numerous reports of pushbacks that are happening in this region? we see many of the migrants themselves being returned back. we see that they have been deprived of their shoes, they've been deprived of their basic goods and sometimes, really, of their dignity. the croatian government didn't respond to a request for comment, but has already denied a policy of pushbacks, and says it upholds its legal obligations to asylum seekers. three policemen were suspended after being accused of violence against migrants. but only the snows, due here soon, are likely to slow the desperate attempts to reach the eu. it's just after five o'clock in the morning, and the family is preparing for another attempt at crossing the border. we'll go with them as far as we are allowed to on the bosnian side. let's just see what happens, if they're able to cross. there's fear that baby sara will cry and alert border guards. she's really fast asleep. she must sleep in this way. if she wake up, especially in the border, if she wakes up she will cry and the people that they are close to the border, their house, so they will call the police. so we'rejust coming up to the border. they've seen a car on the other side, which they suspect is croatian police. so what do you plan to do? we have to cross. it's a journey that's already taken nearly 4000 miles. several hours later, akram sent us a video of the families inside croatia. so, we are here, we are in croatia now. the police came and put them in this van. because greece refused asylum, croatia can reject them, but it must first check their background and status. instead, they say, they were pushed back again. are you going to keep trying? try again? yeah. we have to do. we don't want to be hopeless. every time when the police are deporting us, we are saying to ourselves, "ok, no problem, we will try to go again." croatia — europe — want to stem the flow of migrants. but there's no way home now, no way forward. fergal keane, bbc news, bosnia. now it's time to take a look at some of the stories making the headlines from our newsrooms �*across the uk. a man from bridlington says "he's in shock" after his mum and dads grave was used to bury "another body" following a funeral last week. the plot, at bridlington cemetery, had been visited by the family "for more than 20 years". east riding council has apologised for the error. jo makel reports.

has been awarded to cornwall council to help insulate low income homes in the county. for some it'll mean reduced bills and a lower carbon footprint. but with many of cornwall�*s properties not connected to the gas mains and the county above the national average for poorly insulated homes some are concerned there won't be enough funding to go round. jemma woodman reports. not going out, but staying in. daniel will do anything to avoid switching on his costly heaters. trying to drag it out as long as possible, to have the least financial impact. so, i'm just having to wear thick socks, and wear as many layers as possible, really. he lives in a council—owned housing association block, with a poor energy rating. he's now in debt. after months of wrangling, his heaters are about to be upgraded. and so i can hopefully pay down that debt that it incurred. cornwall council says it is working on a programme to make all of its properties more energy efficient, and there will be grants for low income home owners, too. but will there be enough to go round? landlady anne sparry has tried to upgrade her rentals. the cost of the materials came to about £8,000- £9,000. and did that get

old, so, one doesn't know what else one can do. cornwall council says it is pushing the government for more help to decarbonise our homes. while the government says it will provide as much support as economically viable, keeping the cold out and the heat in will need to be a priority for everyone, notjust to save on bills, but also the planet. jemma woodman, bbc spotlight. campaigners against plans to build an incinerator near winchester, have accused hampshire county council of covering up objections made from within the council itself. a freedom of information request found the council's own landscape team opposed it but were asked to downplay their views. the council says it's confident the planning process has been undertaken correctly. sean killick sent this report. iam in iamina i am in a field just outside olton. you can see an existing waste recycling centre. there is a plan to build a waste incinerator which will be three times bigger with two chimneys on it as well. there is a campaign group objecting to that in the local area. and then, you are the local area. and then, you are the spokes person, you have carried out a freedom of information request, what has that uncovered7 indie request, what has that uncovered? we have request, what has that uncovered? - have uncovered two worrying documents. the first was a serious objection raised by hampshire county council's own landscape team saying this is absolutely the wrong place to build such a huge incinerator. the problem is, that objection has never been published on the council's own planning website. the second document we found was the planning department asking another department to downplay their objection on the grounds that this proposed incinerator breaches hampshire's own waste strategy.

expected to make a decision early next year. now it's time for a look at the weather with helen willetts. good afternoon. there's not much sunshine on offer today, but a few areas. this was anglesey a little earlier across the eastern side of england and scotland, which is where we have the highest temperature yesterday, 16 celsius. but if you haven't heard yet, that is all about to change. so just taking somewhere typically in central parts of the uk for the coming week, seven days, look how that warmth, that mild weather ebbs away. and it's because we change our wind direction, at the moment we've got the winds being drawn around this area of high pressure from the southwest across the atlantic. we will turn towards the look towards the north for the origin of our air by the end of the weekend. but for the rest of the day, some sunshine is to the grampians, east of the pennines, through humberside, lincolnshire, across the eastern side of the welsh mountains as well. it's a breezy day still in the north, very windy actually up in shetland, but the winds are not down on those of yesterday. and i should imagine it feels quite pleasant, particularly with the sunshine. but there's lots of low cloud around the hills and coasts in the west. so really rather leaden skies here and damp at times. now, through this evening and overnight, those clear spells will tend to fill in with some mist and fog again. but all weather front starts to get a move on across scotland. so bringing some more persistent rain across mainland scotland overnight. and as you can see, it remains mild. so it's behind this weather front that we introduce the colder air. so misty, grey and fog around in southern areas, but then some brighter skies and largely dry. but rain does arrive for northern england. northern ireland clears away later in the day. the brighter skies invading here, but also the colder air, sixes and sevens, as you can see. and those showers will turn a bit wintry as we get into sunday across the high ground, because behind our weatherfront here are cold weather. true to its name, the air is going to come right the way down from the arctic. so we will see a real drop in temperatures, some four or five celsius accentuated by the strength of the wind that will be particularly brisk around northern coast and later on sunday, further south and east. but you can see the frost is starting to develop as well, notjust cold by day, cold by night as well. so a few wintry showers around over the hills in the north. could be a little bit of wind chills in the hills across snowdonia, for example. and we may well keep a few showers across kent and essex during the day on sunday and a chilly winter. but i think the notice is how chilly it will feel. temperatures are significantly lower and they get lower still later next week with increasing risk of something wintry in the forecast. stay tuned. bye— bye. this is bbc news. the headlines: cricket chiefs hold an urgent meeting about racism in the game in england. it comes after another cricketer apologises — for wearing black make—up at a fancy dress party in 2009 my 20s was full of mistakes like that, reckless mistakes off the field that cost me and let down family and let down team—mates and let down friends. austria is to go into a full nationwide lockdown because of record covid cases,— and
