You have liz truss and her supporters saying to be bold, give a big offer on tax, get rid of a lot of regulation, start fracking again because all these things will help economic growth.

Live to brighton to speak to lottie renwick, senior policy and advocacy adviser, malaria no more, a Charity Striving<\/a> to end malaria for good. Welcome to the programme. You are smiling, this is a really significant, good day, isnt it because theyll absolutely, matthew, this is brilliant news, that second Malaria Vaccine<\/a> developed right here in the uk has been recommended by the who today. This is so important because, despite tremendous progress with malaria, still a child dies every single minute. 50 with malaria, still a child dies every single minute. With malaria, still a child dies every single minute. So this second Malaria Vaccine<\/a> every single minute. So this second Malaria Vaccine<\/a> will every single minute. So this second Malaria Vaccine<\/a> will hopefully i every single minute. So this second Malaria Vaccine<\/a> will hopefully mean i Malaria Vaccine<\/a> will hopefully mean we can push up vaccines to the tens of thousands more children, and when used in conjunction with other malaria interventions, they really hope we can get back on track to ending malaria.

Sr was hope that potentially by the middle of next year, they might be able to start roll out. But it all depends on funding, as well, so its really important that all these tools get the funding and support they need to be able to roll them out quickly. Funding where .

Some of that gap is to do with the globalfund, and that some of that gap is to do with the global fund, and that really is one of the biggest financing financial organisations for malaria, but also as we move forward with vaccines, the Vaccine Alliance<\/a> have been really important as well and its really important as well and its really important as well and its really important that both these organisations are fully funded because vaccines need to be rolled out alongside other malaria treatments.

Absolutely, africa really does i shoulder the burden of malaria, and we know that malaria can be eliminated, weve seen many other countries that have managed to get rid of malaria, thats why its so important that these organisations continue to be fully supported. And its really why we are calling on all the uk clinical parties to not only back scientists that develop these exciting tools, but also to fund these organisations, as well. It is a really significant moment, so thanks so much forjoining us here on bbc news to mark that moment. Just a quick pointer for people watching, do head to the bbc news website because a lot of Background Material<\/a> they are on todays development. We heard from the who that their view, that tetris was speaking, the chief of the who saying he dreamt of a day like this and we were talking earlier to professor adrian hill, the key player in terms of developing this vaccine, talking about how he had been involved in his entire working life as a junior doctor, first in africa, to then developing vaccines and progress, the long, Hard Progress<\/a> to get to this moment. So a lot of material they are available on the website, so do head there for much more on this major story. They say it would allow them to almost double investment to \u00a396 billion, including ten new reservoirs and a modernised sewer system. If the Regulator Ofwat<\/a> approves the plans, the average annual bill will go up by \u00a381; in 2025, rising gradually each year to 156 extra by 2030. Heresjonah fisher. East anglia is the driest part of the uk, making sure theres enough water for everyone is a recurring headache for the local water company. To limit Climate Change<\/a> is the biggest challenge we face as a country. This is part of the solution. A huge Pipeline Project<\/a> costing more than half \u00a31 billion. It will transport water from the wettest to the driest areas, and eventually stretch more than 180 miles. Its areas, and eventually stretch more than 180 miles. Than 180 miles.

East essexs pipeline is where we have a lot less. East essexs pipeline is an example of the massive investment the Water Companies<\/a> say he is now needed. They want to build new reservoirs, fix leaking pipes, and reduce the amount of raw sewage being spilt. Today the Water Companies<\/a> have submitted to the Regulator Ofwat<\/a> their wish lists. What they want to spend between 2025 30 and its a huge number, nearly \u00a3100 billion, thats almost twice as much as in the previous five year period. And the cost of all that will ultimately fall on customers. Its estimated that by 2030, bills will rise on average by about \u00a3156. It will now be up to the regulator to dig into the details and decide if the plans are in the best interest of customers. Are in the best interest of customers. ~ ,. , customers.

Next on verified live it was one of the most famous concerts of all time. Were talking about live aid back injuly 1985. When queen, u2, david bowie, bob dylan, led zeppelin, and the who at an all Star Charity Concert<\/a> staged at wembley stadium, and in philadelphia. The event was to raise Money Forfamine<\/a> relief in ethiopia. Well, now its being turned into a stage music and one of the original organisers, bob geldof, has given the show his blessing. Hes been talking to our entertainment correspondent colin paterson. Its 12pm noon in london, 7am in philadelphia, and around the world, its time for live aid. One of the most famous concerts of all time is being turned into a musical. All right live aid, which raised Money Forfamine<\/a> relief in ethiopia, was watched by an estimated 1. 5 billion people in 1985. Now a Stage Version<\/a> is heading to the Old Vic Theatre<\/a> in london with the blessing of the original organiser, bob geldof. Tell me why, i dont like mondays. Live aid the musical, why . Live aid the musical, whod have thought . You know, live aid the musical happened a0 years ago, it was on in wembley, you know. They came and said, we know youre going to say no, but we want to do it because our dads have never stopped talking about this day. We think its theatre. You know, lets put on a show we can be heroes, just for one day. The musical is called just for one day after the line from david bowies heroes. Are there people playing david bowie and bono and Freddie Mercury<\/a> . No, no, its not a tribute thing. I wouldnt have anything to do with that. I hope that someone gets my message in a bottle. The songs drive the drama along. It hinges on individuals and their experience because that was live aid. Well, tonight thank god its them instead of you. The plots will balance a behind the scenes look at how both band aid and live aid came together with a love story inspired by real events. Very cleverly, theres a story, and the story is based on actual testimony from the day. Its real people telling their story throughout this. So its complex theatre. Which songs do you pick from live aid . Where do you begin this . Speaking words of wisdom, let it be. The Band Aid Charitable<\/a> trust will receive 10 of all ticket sales. Bob geldof hopes the musical will tour, possibly internationally, after its original nine week run starting injanuary. The one thing he has not been enjoying . Going to early script reads and seeing someone play him. Its bad enough being bob geldof, its slightly worse seeing somebody pretending to be you. The one upside from me is that hes got an amazing voice, stage bob, so people will actually think that i sing as good as that Feed The World<\/a> live aid lives again. Colin paterson, bbc news.

Contrasting conditions again across the uk, with a warm humid air hanging on towards the south. Misty, murky too across parts of the south west early on today. But further north, for scotland, blue sky and sunshine. Also true for Northern Ireland<\/a> and northern england, but we will see a few showers here at times. You can see quite nicely the boundary between those two air masses, its a warm front gradually moving northwards and eastwards across england and wales, giving showery outbreaks of rain on and off through the afternoon here. And some of that rain could pep up at times. It could be heavy and thundery, particularly from the East Midlands<\/a> into east anglia towards the end of the day. But further north, sunshine and showers. Quite a noticeable westerly wind, really quite gusty again towards the north west of scotland. Temperatures lower than yesterday, but still well above the early october average. As we head through this evening and overnight, the rain is set to continue for a time, especially across eastern areas of england. It will leave a hang back of cloud here into the morning, but most of the Rain Clearing<\/a> into the north sea. A line of showers moving across wales further eastwards, but fizzling out. Still some showers for Northern Ireland<\/a> and Western Scotland<\/a>. Clear skies towards eastern scotland, temperatures here rather low. But a mild start to the day tomorrow for this time of year. As we head into tuesday, a much fresherfeeling day. Weve lost the humidity in the south, quite breezy, with a noticeably brisk wind. A day of sunshine, and some showers moving eastwards. Temperatures will, of course, be lower. Peaking generally in the mid to high teens in celsius, but still above the average for the time of year. And then on wednesday, High Pressure<\/a> starts to build in from the south, so its quite likely that towards the south, we will see a largely dry rest of the week. Not so, further north. Another front still some uncertainty on the detail of this will push across Northern Ireland<\/a> and into north west scotland, possibly lingering for a time, giving heavy downpours here and there, but do keep an eye on the forecast. Temperatures more or less where theyll be on tuesday, so the mid to the high teens for most of us. And its looking similar again, with more rain moving into Western Scotland<\/a> through thursday and possibly friday. Just look at those temperatures starting to climb again as we head into the weekend, maybe 26 celsius on saturday in south east england. Bye bye.
