five days after storm arwen, tens of thousands are still without power. and the 20th centuary us—born singerjosephine baker, becomes the first black woman to be declared a national hero in france. good afternoon, and welcome to bbc news. in the past hour, the prime minister has been giving a news conference at downing street where he has set out plans to accelerate good afternoon, and welcome to bbc news. the boosterjabs programme, because of concern about the spread of the omicron variant of coronavirus. borisjohnson called for a national effort, with vaccination centres "popping up like christmas trees". the prime minister said the plan was for all adults to have been offered a boosterjab by the end of january. the prime minister said that, as with the firstjabs, the boosterjabs will be offered to people by age group going down in five—year bands. he said it is "vital that the older and the more clinically vulnerable get that added protection first". 10,000 paid vaccination roles are to be created, and tens of thousands of extra volunteers sought as part of what the prime minister's calling a "great british vaccination effort". the need for action was underlined as the number of confirmed cases of the 0micron variant in the uk reached 22, with that figure expected to increase further. let's listen back to what he said. the target that we have set ourselves is to offer a booster to everyone eligible by the end of january. and, as with the firstjabs, we will be working through people by age group, going down in five—year bands, because it is vital that the older and more clinically vulnerable get that added protection first. so, even if you've had your second jab over three months ago and you are now eligible, please do not try and book until the nhs says it's your turn. we've already done almost 18 million boosters across the uk, but we've got millions more to do to protect the most vulnerable. then we will move down the cohorts rapidly and, working together with the devolved administrations, we want to ramp up capacity across the whole of the united kingdom to the levels we've achieved in the previous vaccine effort. we will be throwing everything at it in order to ensure that everyone eligible is offered that booster in, as i say, just over two months. across england, we will have more than 1,500 community pharmacy sites vaccinating people near where you live. all of our sites will increase their capacity, and we'll stand up extra hospital hubs on top of those already active. the prime minister speaking in the last hour or so. the health secretary, sajid javid, said the best chance of spending christmas with loved ones was "to step up when called" to receive a vaccine. i know that the developments of the past few days have been worrying for some people, and that we've brought back memories... what we are seeing recently has brought back memories of the strain of the last winter. but, although we can't say with certainty what lies ahead, we have one huge advantage that we didn't have back then — our vaccination programme, which has already done so much to keep this virus at bay. but these defences will only keep us safe if we use them. this is a national mission, and we all have a role to play. if we want to give ourselves the best chance of a christmas with our loved ones, the best thing we can all do is step up, roll up our sleeves, and get protected when the time comes. let's talk to our political correspondent chris mason, who's in westminster. saja javid talking about this being a national mission, lots of talk about this being a national effort, everyone has to contribute. it does feel like a big moment, this, doesn't it? because essentially what i think the government seems to be suggesting is christmas hinges on everyone playing their part. that’s everyone playing their part. that's exactly what _ everyone playing their part. that's exactly what he — everyone playing their part. that's exactly what he was _ everyone playing their part. that's exactly what he was saying - everyone playing their part. that's exactly what he was saying there, | exactly what he was saying there, wasn't he? and it's very interesting picking through the language and the tone of the two ministers in the new dell micro news conference there. on the one hand, aiming to drill into all of us to get a booster or second jab when possible, that line from mr javid that there is an evergreen opportunity for any of us to get the job, whether we've had a couple, none, or one already. but at the same time, not wanting to sound too negative either. particularly because, if you think about the kind of choreography of the experience of the moment, the closing end of winter nights, the colder weather, the huge uncertainty around the new variant, the return of the cobit news conferences —— covid news conferences, it's no wonder some people are very worried because of that feeling of recent history repeating itself. and as we heard there from the health secretary, the big difference this time is so many of us are vaccinated and will soon be entitled to a booster if we've not had one already. in the prime minister emphasising that therefore, in hisjudgement right now, the balance as he sees it is right, that there isn't a necessity to set out plan b which was set out in september. insteadjust plan b which was set out in september. instead just one element of it, the wearing of face masks... but we should not be gold plating the new regulations imposed by the government. so there was no need, he said, for schools to cancel nativity plays or christmas parties to be cancelled. despite what we heard, very silly near health advisers to the government said this morning —— very senior, she felt we should reduce the amount of socialising that they do. it reminds me that one of the first victims of this whole pandemic for us they'd today beyond the horrendous death toll and crippling effect on the economy, has been the removal of certainty. and it's that, isn't it, which stalks us again here whilst scientists are trying to work out the next couple of weeks just how dangerous this variant is, how transmissible it is, how much i can escape the vaccines, and just how bad the symptoms are relative to the other variants and transmission.— relative to the other variants and transmission. chris, thank you for that. let's talk to our health correspondent katharine da costa. a booster for everyone eligible by the end of january? a booster for everyone eligible by the end ofjanuary? is a booster for everyone eligible by the end of january? is that feasible is yellow it's incredibly challenging, it is a logistical issue. we are already doing 2.5 million boosters a week. if you kept it at that current rate, it would take us until sometime in february to boost everyone. so the prime minister said he wants to wrap it up, he said he'd throw everything at it to the level of the peak in march when we were seeing 3—4,000,000 jobs a week then. so they've set out a plan, as it were, extra vaccination hubs, hospital hubs, mobile sites to make it more accessible, the workforce is an issue, gps will be doing the lion's share of vaccines, they go back to their dayjobs, but they go back to their dayjobs, but the head of nhs england said they would be cutting some of their burdens so they can do more vaccinations as well as house visits to housebound people. but they would also be requiring military personnel, volunteers, many more pharmacists, etc to make this happen. but it is ambitious, there's a lot of work to do. but they said they had the supply, theyjust need they had the supply, theyjust need the arms to put them in. the military are _ the arms to put them in. the military are involved, - the arms to put them in. the military are involved, as well, and as you say, a lot of the infrastructure that helped roll out the vaccine programme over the year to great success, a lot of that is just gone?— to great success, a lot of that is 'ust one? , ., ., ,, just gone? the big, large max mass vaccination centres... _ just gone? the big, large max mass vaccination centres... we've - just gone? the big, large max mass vaccination centres... we've still. vaccination centres... we've still got a number of hospitals that are vaccinating members of the public, so they'll be called upon. pharmacists will play a really big part in this, in gps will be draughted back in. amanda prichard said there would be about 3000 vaccination sites around the country, and it is about making it more accessible, because there have been reports of people travelling to far to get to walk in centres. and some people are housebound, so they need clinicians to come to them. so it is challenging, and they said it would take time, people in england should wait for the nhs to contact them. . ., should wait for the nhs to contact them. ., ~ i. we can speak now to the conservative mp and chair of the covid recovery group, mark harper. thanks forjoining us. what you make of the proposals put forward by the prime minister and the health secretary?— secretary? first of all, on the vaccine roll-out, _ secretary? first of all, on the vaccine roll-out, booster- secretary? first of all, on the - vaccine roll-out, booster roll-out vaccine roll—out, booster roll—out that you've just been talking about, i'm a very strong supporter of that. i'm a very strong supporter of that. i don't think vaccines should ever become mandatory, but i very strongly support adults getting vaccinated. i had my own boosterjab last week, so in speeding that up, the advice that we have from thejc vi is very sensible. strongly support that. the measures we were obviously debating in the house of commons this afternoon — i was less worried about the mask mandate, disappointed we've gone back to a mandate by law, but it has an expiry date in three weeks' time. i was more worried about the self isolation rules — i think there is a real risk that we go back to having endemic 2.0, and we will see lots of people without covid, perfectly healthy and ending up isolating at home — which if you remember, that was damaging for the economy, people's well—being and children. commons voted on backing the motion to introduce 10—day self isolation rules — what is your concern exactly about that? rules - what is your concern exactly about that?— about that? first of all, despite ministers promising _ about that? first of all, despite ministers promising these - about that? first of all, despite - ministers promising these measures would be reviewed in three weeks' time, that measure doesn't have an end date, so it rolls all the way forward until 2a march next year. i think that's a problem. also the definition is only supposed to apply to people who have come into contact with someone with the new omicron variant. and it's very fuzzy in the law about how you define that, how we know if you have come into contact with someone. and i happen to think laws should be clear and well—defined so that people know what the law is. and ministers weren't able to flush that out this afternoon— for both those reasons, i opposed at that particular piece of legislation. but as you said, the house of commons approved it and ministers brought it into law before we'd even debated anyway, which i don't think is very good practice anyway. it don't think is very good practice an a . , ., ~ , anyway. if you were prime minister and you've — anyway. if you were prime minister and you've got _ anyway. if you were prime minister and you've got this _ anyway. if you were prime minister and you've got this new _ anyway. if you were prime minister and you've got this new variant - anyway. if you were prime minister and you've got this new variant out| and you've got this new variant out there, and 22 people so far in the uk, what would you do? for there, and 22 people so far in the uk, what would you do?- there, and 22 people so far in the uk, what would you do? for a start, i think it would've been _ uk, what would you do? for a start, i think it would've been perfectly - i think it would've been perfectly sensible if ministers had time—limited the measures to expire in three weeks' time, then when ministers had more information and scientists have had longer to study the effectiveness of this new variant, come back to the house of commons with that information and some further proposals. it's a point i've made strongly, the house of commons will wrap up in three weeks' time for christmas, but i'm happy to sit right up to christmas if it means we debate these measures properly. we are passing laws that affect everyone's lives, many people work during the christmas break, people who earn a lot less than members of parliament. so i think if necessary, we should sit longer and debate these measures when ministers have evidence, then we can make sure those laws are proportionate to the risk we face. at the moment we know very little about this new variant. doing so for the next three weeks may be very sensible, but it should be time—limited and ministers can come back to parliament when they know more. come back to parliament when they know more-— know more. you don't think the government _ know more. you don't think the government should _ know more. you don't think the government should have - know more. you don't think the i government should have flexibility that it needs to be noble footed in this whole area? and, as you say, three weeks takes us up to christmas and people want to get home and be with theirfamilies? and people want to get home and be with their families? iunlith and people want to get home and be with their families?— with their families? with respect, members of _ with their families? with respect, members of parliament _ with their families? with respect, members of parliament do - with their families? with respect, members of parliament do want l with their families? with respect, | members of parliament do want to with their families? with respect, - members of parliament do want to be with theirfamilies, but members of parliament do want to be with their families, but frankly we are paid a decent salary — and our job is to scrutinise the laws that ministers want to bring forward, and if we are going to pass laws that affect the lives and ability of the population to spend time with their families, then frankly it is ourjob to do ourjobs properly. many people who earn lots less than we do have to work over holiday periods and christmas. and if we have to have some inconvenience for ourselves in order to make sure we do ourjobs properly for our constituents, the people that pay us to represent them, then i think that's absolutely fine. , ., ~ pcr tests and self—isolation are back for travellers arriving in the uk. weeks after international travel rules were eased to allow faster lateral flow tests, the government has tightened restrictions once again in response to the spread of the 0micron variant of coronavirus. it means people arriving in the uk must take a pcr test and isolate until they get a negative result. 0ur reporter charlotte gallagher is at gatwick airport and joins me now. charlotte, one wonders what travellers already on the move are making of all of this? big changes for travellers, _ making of all of this? big changes for travellers, as _ making of all of this? big changes for travellers, as you _ making of all of this? big changes for travellers, as you said. - for travellers, as you said. and people we spoke to today said there was a mixed reception — some had absently no idea this was going on until they got to their departure airport, orsome until they got to their departure airport, or some even when they sat down on the plane. i spoke to one woman who had had three weeks in jamaica, relaxing on the beach, she gets to the airport and finds out she'll have to self isolate and take a pcr test. and she was due back at work on wednesday. so she said she was really worrying about how to tell her manager about that. and there's also the cost — these tests aren't available on the nhs, the pcr test for travellers, you have to pay for them. test for travellers, you have to pay forthem. i got test for travellers, you have to pay for them. i got an e—mailfrom one company offering them for £99. so they aren't cheap, and some travel industry leaders are calling on the government to provide pcr tests for people returning to britain on the nhs forfree, and people returning to britain on the nhs for free, and they hope that will booster the travel the industry at the moment. people don't know whether to cancel or postpone holidays, peoplejust don't whether to cancel or postpone holidays, people just don't know what's going on. bud holidays, people 'ust don't know what's going on._ what's going on. and the travel sector itself _ what's going on. and the travel sector itself has _ what's going on. and the travel sector itself has been - what's going on. and the travel sector itself has been in - what's going on. and the travel sector itself has been in the - sector itself has been in the doldrums because of all the regulations, leading up to the last few months or so, then those restrictions are swept away — now they are back again, the sector must be feeling very frustrated? it’s be feeling very frustrated? it's like bein: be feeling very frustrated? it�*s like being in a horrible circle, isn't it? when you walk through gatwick airport, a major uk airport, only one terminal is open. in the terminal that's open, the shops are closed. as you can see behind me, there isn't the number of travellers you'd expect to see at the airport especially in the run—up to christmas, lots of people coming back to see family. so travel companies rightly are very concerned. it's important to say that britain isn't the only country doing this — for example, if you are fancying a quick holiday to switzerland, bad news. you'll have to isolate for ten days when you get there until the let you out in switzerland. also spain from tomorrow, you must be double vaccinated to be let back into the country. japan essentially has closed its borders. then you have read list countries, ten countries in africa including south africa, the president very annoyed there that they've essentially been placed on this red list in britain and many other countries where they have to quarantine in a hotel and isolate until they are allowed to leave. charlotte, thank you. let's get more from mike tildesley, who's a professor of infectious disease modelling at the university of warwick, and a member of the scientific pandemic influenza group on modelling which advises the government. he's speaking to us in a personal capacity today. it's good to see you, thanks for being with us. the health secretary said in the news briefing a few minutes ago that at the moment, there were 22 cases of the omicron variant across the uk. he said he expects that number to rise, i'm sure you probably do too. what kind of a figure are we looking at potentially by the time we get to christmas, do you think?- potentially by the time we get to christmas, do you think? that's hard to redict christmas, do you think? that's hard to predict because _ christmas, do you think? that's hard to predict because it _ christmas, do you think? that's hard to predict because it really _ christmas, do you think? that's hard to predict because it really dependsl to predict because it really depends on how transmissible this variant is, compared with delta that's currently the dominant variant in the country. that's what we need to discover over the next week or two, how transmissible this variant is, how transmissible this variant is, how effective we think the vaccines are, and of course, how severe an infection with this omicron variant is. there is early reports coming out of south africa which seem to suggest milder infection, but we don't have strong evidence to support that yet. so all of these uncertainties really need to be resolved before we can say with any level of confidence where we might expect to be with omicron as we get closer to christmas. the expect to be with omicron as we get closer to christmas.— closer to christmas. the suggestion is the milder— closer to christmas. the suggestion is the milder infection _ closer to christmas. the suggestion is the milder infection rate - closer to christmas. the suggestion is the milder infection rate in - is the milder infection rate in south africa may be due to the fact that the population

are being infected in south africa — it's possible if this goes to the older generation in south africa in a week or two's time, we might see that severity go up, of course. so this is why i'm saying this with an element of caution, we simply don't have the information to be confident about, and it means very close monitoring over the next week or two so we can resolve these uncertainties. {sheen resolve these uncertainties. given the uncertainty — resolve these uncertainties. given the uncertainty and _ resolve these uncertainties. given the uncertainty and the _ resolve these uncertainties. given the uncertainty and the fact - resolve these uncertainties. given the uncertainty and the fact that l the uncertainty and the fact that scientists still need to crack this thing and work out exactly how potent omicron can be, do you think the government should have gone to a full plan b and suggested that people work from home, and notjust have a few regulations that they've announced in the last couple days? this is a really difficult call because the problem you have, of course — let's say the government decided to do nothing, then suddenly in a couple weeks' time, we get evidence that actually, omicron evades the vaccines to a high level. then there's criticism that they didn't go far enough. we could have the other situation where in a couple weeks' time, we could see the severity may be lower and it turns out we don't need these restrictions, and therefore they may be listed in a few weeks' time —— lifted. so we need to put in measures that will reduce the risk whilst at the same time supporting businesses and society, and so forth after a really long time under restriction. so it's a difficult call to know exactly how severe of measures to put in at this point of time. , ' . measures to put in at this point of time. p. , measures to put in at this point of time. , .,, time. difficult call, but does it feel riaht time. difficult call, but does it feel right to

process identify whether some of those individuals will sadly have to go to hospital. and this starts to go to hospital. and this starts to build up a picture for us of, how well the vaccines are working, how transmissible the virus is and, of course, how severe infection is in individuals who do get infected with omicron. ., ,,., ., individuals who do get infected with omicron. ., ., .,

without power due to the damage caused by storm arwen. numerous homes have been damaged in aberdeenshire and whole villages in cumbria have been left with no power. residents in perthshire and angus are also still waiting to be reconnected to the grid. energy providers say they're continuing to work on repairing the "catastrophic" damage to the network. it's not clear when power will be restored. more than 20,000 households across the north of england have spent a fourth night without power. 0ur correspondent, alison freeman, has been in the village of blanch—land in northumberland, where the situation is said to be getting "desperate". yeah, this is just one of the places where some of those 20,000 or so houses across the north—east, we are talking about northumberland, county durham, and north yorkshire still without power. there are also problems over the pennines in cumbria in some of the outlying villages there that have been heavily affected by snow. and with no power means no heating, no hot water, no hot food. on top of that some of these places simply haven't had any water supplies, freshwater supplies at all. they are also without mobile phone and internet and are starting to feel really quite isolated there. now, we know that in a lot of these communities the frustration they're starting to feel is that they are being given times when the power is meant to be coming back on, but those deadlines simply aren't being met. northern power grid, which covers this part of the country, says it has been dealing with hundreds of incidences of power cables being knocked out by storm arwen, and it is doing everything it can to deal with them, but people here tell me that they are starting to feel forgotten. what they're doing is relying on places like the local pub which is helping to check up on the elderly and use its generator to charge up everything from hearing aids to ipads and mobile phones. so as i say, it is that sense of community that is really keeping people going. i'm joined now by ross easton from the energy network association. good afternoon, good to see you. no electricity for tens of thousands of homes, no mobile phone service,

in half, hundreds of polls snapped in half, we've had engineers who have had to work on this very labour intensive job to reconnect people. so across jobs that we are thinking 1—2 polls, we found 20—30, in some cases 100 polls snapped in half. you've seen the images on your tv screen of the damage caused, and our network has taken a lot of that, as well.— taken a lot of that, as well. would ou

effort, a team effort to get that number down as quickly as possible. we won't reconnect everyone this evening, but we are doing our best to reconnect people as quickly and safely as we can. ross, good to talk to you. now it's time for a look at the weather. ben rich has more details. thank lee nothing as better storm arwen on the way. however we do have a bout of windy weather through the forecast as we head through this evening and overnight. after what has been a really mild data the month of november. you can see the rain swinging into western scotland and northern ireland, that rain will sweep its way eastwards as we had to this evening and tonight with strengthening wins, particularly gusty winds around some of these eastern coast, western parts of england, wales, northern ireland and through the english channel. as the winds start to turn northerly, it will turn colder as the night wears on. some of this wet weather will start to turn to snow in the north of scotland to markham at snow to low levels. showers of rain pushing southwards across most other areas, but a few wintry flurries developing by the end of the day. gusts of 40-50 by the end of the day. gusts of 40—50 mph particularly around the coast, and it'll be feeling increasingly cold, we are heading back into a period of rather chilly weather through tomorrow and indeed into thursday. at those temperatures are set to climb again by friday, a milder end to the week. hello, this is bbc news with me, clive myrie. the headlines — all adults over 18 will be offered a coronavirus boosterjab by the end of january. the prime minister says it's the best defence against the 0micron variant. it's time for another great british vaccination effort. we've done it before, and we're going to do it again. and let's not give this virus a second chance. mps vote to approve new rules which make masks compulsory in shops and on public transport in england unless you are exempt. and anyone arriving

a full round—up from the bbc sport centre, here's jane. some sad news to start with. the former liverpool, arsenal and england player ray kennedy has passed away aged 70. he won everything there was to win with liverpool in the �*70s and �*80s, including five first division titles and three european cups. kennedy had been living with parkinson's disease since 1984. 0ur football reporter alex howelljoins us now. alex, an illustrious career, notjust with liverpool, but how will he be remembered by liverpool fans? they by liverpool fans? were remembered ray kennedy a they were remembered ray kennedy as a key figure in a team that dominated english and european football during the 1970s. he played nearly 400 times, scored over 70 goals for the club and during that time he won five league titles, three european cops during his seven and a half year stay at the club. he is also highly thought of that arsenal which is where he started his career and came through. he won a league and cup double there in 1971. but it's at liverpool where he won most of his honours during his career. he actually famously said he felt more pride in the register of liverpool that he did playing for england. he did play for england. he played 17 times and represented them at the european championships in 1980. but that is where he is most remembered is at liverpool. his signing story is actually a funny one. the day he signed for liverpool, the manager actually resigned but the thing he said at his press conference is that hopefully the final thing he did at liverpool was signed a great player and i'm sure liverpool fans would agree that's exactly what he was. ok, alex, think is much that update. just a few hours to go until three of the home nations are in women's world cup qualifying action. england play latvia, wales take on france and scotland have travelled to seville to play spain. if they win, they will top the group, but the scotland head coach, pedro martinez losa, is spanish himself and says his side have a difficult game ahead of them. we will have to play our best match so far. we will have to be in all the contest, defensive aspect and position of the ball otherwise. if we do that with the character and spirit of the team we have proven before. and also with some little tactical preparation, we will find our opportunities to be competitive. dan evans has given great britain the perfect start to their davis cup quarterfinal against germany in austria. the british number two played what he called some of his best tennis of the year as he beat peter gojowzzyk in straight sets 6—2, 6—1. the german is only ranked 86th in the world and losing the match in under an hour with his seventh double fault summed up his performance. cameron norrie is currently playing jan—lennard struff. there's been another shock exit in the uk snooker championship with 2011 championjudd trump being knocked out. he was one of the favourites going into the tournament, but trump was beaten in the third round by fellow englishman matthew selt, losing by six frames to three. he's the latest big name to go out early. last year's winner neil robertson and world champion mark selby were both knocked out earlier in the tournament. in the past few minutes, mark allen has been beaten by david gilbert six frames to five. we'll have more for you in sportsday at half past 6pm. jane, thank you for that. we have got the latest coronavirus figures from the government and they show that were 39,716 new infections recorded in the latest 24 hour period. there were 159 deaths reported, that's people who died within 28 days of a positive covid—19 test. so those are the latest numbers that we have for you. a man accused by a newspaper of being a "fixer" linked to the rochdale grooming gang has said his life was crumbling. wajed iqbal sued for defamation against the mail on sunday and won damages of £180,000. associated newspapers, the publishers of the paper, apologised in court and agreed the allegations were false. his case has been part of a report today looking at how muslims and islam are reported in the british media. it claims almost 60% of online media articles and 47% of television clips associate muslims and/or islam with negative aspects or behaviour. 0ur religious affairs reporter harry farley reports. my life just started crumbling, and you just don't know what to do. tears started rolling out me eyes cos i thought, "what is happening?" in may 2016, wajed iqbal�*s life was turned upside down. they referred to me as "the fixer". i was going to friday prayers, and you do get a lot of people looking at you and just sneering, you know, laughing. you get some external people approaching your friends saying, "0h, your mate's done this." my oldest had to suffer taunts from fellow students at university. the ex—wife said, "look, you know, i'm protecting the kids." she was getting taunted by friends. you know, the word soon spread throughout the asian community. for a father to be absent from their child's life, only a father can tell you how difficult it is, especially when you're close with them. we used to go to football together, did a lot of activities together, and then all of a sudden, boom, no contact for two years, not even a phone call. wajed sued for defamation. eventually, in january 2020, the mail on sunday's publishers, associated newspapers, apologised and agreed to pay £180,000 in damages. there's no amount of money, i can't put a figure on that two years i missed with my kids. i've lost that time. that time was precious. and also in terms of my career, it put brakes on my career. we've approached the mail on sunday for comment. in a court statement, associated newspapers accepted the allegations were false. a report today from the centre for media monitoring suggests unfairly negative coverage of muslims is widespread in british media. muslims are constantly scapegoated, made to be a threat to the way of life here in britain. but there's lots of tropes that were found, you know, in the corners of the internet amongst far—right figures which have slowly started entering mainstream media, and that's the worrying thing. some of the report's findings are subjective, but for wajed, this was about clearing his name. they didn't expect somebody from a small lancashire town to take them on, and i'm glad i did it. harry farley, bbc news. france has honoured the singer and activistjosephine baker with a place in the pantheon. she's the first black woman to be remembered in the resting place of france's national heroes. her body will remain buried in monaco, but a symbolic coffin containing handfuls of earth from four places where she lived are in the tomb reserved for her in the pantheon's crypt. the coffin was carried into the building by members of the french air force, commemorating her role in the french resistance during the second world war. let's speak to our correspondent hugh schofield in paris. for those who don't get the significance of this, just explain how important the pantheon is to french life. how important the

french life. well, the pantheon if the kind of secular cathedral of l the kind of secular cathedral of france, post revolutionary france. it was actually originally a church but was converted after the french revolution to become this resting place for the hallowed heroes and heroines of french history. there are about a bit more than 70 people interred there, but many are totally forgotten. many heroes from the napoleonic wars for but some are names that ring through history. marie curie for example, the resistant hero sean moulin and every president of france of at least the last 40 years have made a point of putting somebody in there to shine with the times. and it's been emmanuel macron's idea to installjosephine baker. which is a good idea, he was a good egg. this poor but women who came from america and loved dancing and escape the racism of her home and adopted france as her homeland and francis were delighted by her they've never forgot her. and in this day and age, she has mythologized, turned into sort of a latter—day saying as it were. but some of the sort of the stories and things are glossed and turned into something which perhaps it was not really but you can understand why because she does symbolise for the french decided that they are a universal country with universal values where the colour of skin does not matter and they are incredibly flattered that josephine baker came and made france her home. i josephine baker came and made france her home. ., ., ., her home. i have to ask then given all that and — her home. i have to ask then given all

wonderful symbol, and in particularfor emmanuel really wonderful symbol, and in particular for emmanuel macron who has an election quite soon, he is trying to fight two fronts, warding off extremes on the far right and is a symbol of non—whiteness which is goodin a symbol of non—whiteness which is good in that direction and on the other hand he is fighting for battle from the woke new left, the hard left. and she is a good model in that argument, too, because she came and said in france i was able to forget who i was my colour was irrelevant. whereas it had been so relevant in america. and that answers that argument, because for emmanuel macron and others, the won't let us try to divide people up into the colours of their skin, their histories and so on and this universal message which

barbados has become the world's newest republic after replacing the queen as its head of state with a new president. at a handover ceremony in the capital, bridgetown, prince charles acknowledged that the atrocity of slavery on the island had stained britain's history. dame sandra mason was sworn in as president in a ceremony that coincided with the country's 55th anniversary of independence. from this moment, every barbadian becomes the living embodiment of the new republic. whether fair or foul winds come our way, vessel republic barbados has set sail on her maiden voyage. may she weather all

with global tech companies, to combat rising cyber threats. richard moore says the increasing complexity of the technology used by those who want to do harm meant mi6�*s "boffins" couldn't compete alone. he's also been speaking about the global threat posed by china. 0ur security correspondent frank gardner was listening to richard moore and told me more about the warnings being issued by the intelligence chief. this was his inaugural speech. this is a man whojoined mi6 back in 1987 when there was nothing like the kind of arena of espionage that exists today. his warning, that mi6 is going have to adapt and transform if it's going to survive in terms of gathering human intelligence into the digital age. he's talking about artificial intelligence, ai, quantum computing, engineered biology, synthetic biology, things like that which he says poses threats to uk national security. and in order to get ahead, or at least be in the vanguard of those huge technological changes, mi6 is going to have to become more open in order to keep being secret, is what he's saying, which i know is a paradox. so, they're going to partner with technological companies much more increasingly. he said that the big four intelligence priorities for mi6 are china, russia, iran and international terrorism. and he spent some time talking about china. he said that there's a tectonic shift in chinese a tectonic shift in chinese power, both military and economic these days, and he said that chinese intelligence agencies certainly target the united kingdom, and that they'd been paying particular interest in the chinese diaspora here. let's have a listen to what he said about china. i would describe often the way in which china goes about, for example, its work around developing ai in particular, it has tried to harvest data from around the world. the data trap is this — that if you allow another country to gain access to really critical data about your society, over time that will erode your sovereignty. you no longer have control over that data. so, he sees his mission, as chief of mi6, as the task of transforming it into the digital age, dragging it almost into this age away from an era when people had false moustaches and beards to get in the countries to a way in which now, they're going to have to somehow evade biometric data and facial recognition in order to do theirjob of gathering secret intelligence to try and keep britain safer. it's quite a challenge. false moustache is? right. a co—founder of the neo—nazi terror group national action has been convicted of remaining a member after it was banned. ben raymond, from swindon, was convicted of staying in the organisation after it was banned in december 2016. a jury at bristol crown court also found him guilty of two charges of possessing information useful to a terrorist. he is the 17th person convicted of national action membership. chief superintendent kenny bell is from west midlands police. we've done an immense investigation, and at the moment now, 16 other people have been brought tojustice as being members of that proscribed group. and in all of the evidence that we've reviewed from those investigations has led us to conclude, and the jury have accepted, that he's been the co—founder, the architect, the leader of that group. and how much of an influence did he have on neo—nazis who became involved in serious terrorism plots? yeah, well, our evidence has shown that he's had a lot of contact with people who've then got on to commit the violent acts, both in terms of either hate crime or violent crime or acts of terrorism. 0ur evidence has shown that he has gad significant contact with them and he's been able to influence them. a volcano on the spanish island of la palma, which has been erupting for more than ten weeks, is showing no signs of abating. a new vent has just opened, triggering a new lava stream and sending huge clouds of smoke into the sky. tania dendrinos reports. for more than 70 days, the cumbre vieja volcano has been spewing lava, swallowing homes, businesses and farmland. it's destroyed almost 3000 buildings, decimated the banana—growing industry and forced the evacuation of thousands of residents. this video released on monday shows the rapid flow of lava covering around a metre per second, and the eruption shows no sign of abating. a new vent has recently opened, sending the lava in a new direction. translation: we've been surprised i by this new vent which has caused i this new lava flow to go outside of the area that was affected until now. the army has been monitoring emissions from the new fissure as concerns grow about toxic gases. and there are other fears, too. spain's national geographic institute has recorded at least 50 earthquakes in the past couple of days. the accumulation of ash is also causing problems, forcing the closure of the airport on a number of occasions. this eruption will go down in history, tipped to become la palma's longest in 500 years. tania dendrinos, bbc news. now it's time for a look at the weather with ben rich. very good evening to you. some cold days lately but today very different. a really mild into november albeit quite cloudy and damp in many places most of that milder working its way in from the west and lifting temperatures for many up to 12 or 13 or even 14 degrees. but there is still some cold air not too far away. parts of shetland only got1 degrees above freezing today and as we head through tonight and into tomorrow as his area of low pressure drifts southeast words, the winds go back around to the north and we pull that cold air back down across the uk as we begin december. with that area of low pressure there will be some wet and windy weather as well. rain pushing and already two parts of northern ireland, west of scotland, northwest england and the far west of wales and the weather will continue its journey eastwards and showers following him behind with some of those turning wintry in the far north. wendy is well with went into lake gale force for some western, southern and indian eastern coast for a time for the night. but it will be turning colder as the night wears on, colder than it was last night certainly. to see a touch of frost in one or two spots in scotland. fortomorrow of frost in one or two spots in scotland. for tomorrow we will see bouts of rain pushing southwards, showers or larger spells of rain and i say rain, some of what falls from the sky will be turning wintry over high ground and even to quite low levels at times in northern scotland. we will see some spells of sunshine as well but it will be a windy day. those gusts up to collect on the coast as we have just expected of 40 or 50 mph and it will be turning colder as the day wears on. those are the 3pm to richards and looking at values between 3—9 . moving through wednesday night, keep that brisk northerly wind and still feeding and some showers, wintry showers for some. into thursday this little ridge of high pressure starts to build its way in is what we will keep some showers going to hear late for eastern coastal areas, generally we see more in the way up to and there will be some spells of sunshine although more clout is at this bread from the west later in the day. another one of those chilly days on thursday with temperatures stuck in single digits forjust about all of us. within another change through thursday night, bringing a frontal system from the west running into the cold air in it may temporarily give a bit of snow and likely to turn back to rain because there is some more mild air returning from the west. this is friday's forecast and those deeper truths for some back up into double digits once again and they will be some outbreaks of rain in places. temperatures up and down a bit as we had through the week and have some wet and with overnight tonight. then things are said to turn colder as we had through the day tomorrow. more weather in the bbc news at 6pm which is coming up next and that is all for me for now. at six, the prime minister says everyone eligible in england will be
