Own goalfrom joel matip. Not as a manager of liverpool, so much more as a football person, i think the only outcome should be a replay. That is how it is. It would happen again. I think a replay would be the right thing to do or the referee has the opportunity to bring both coaches together and say, sorry, we made a mistake, but we can sort it. And we start from there. Champions League Football will return to St James Park for the first time in 20 years later, as eddie howe� s newcastle take on paris st germain.

Howe believes the Clubs Progress has been rapid since the saudi led takeover two years ago this week and both he and former captain alan shearer are hoping it can continue. I think initially nothing like this was in our thoughts at the speed at which it has happened. The only thing in our thoughts were staying in the premier league. The swing of momentum has shifted so powerfully and quickly and in a positive direction for us. I think my only sort of thought is to try and keep that momentum for as long as we can. 20 years, that is such a long time and the 20 years, that is such a long time and the fans 20 years, that is such a long time and the fans have had some real ups and the fans have had some real Ups And Downs and the fans have had some real Ups And Downs over the years. Bearing in mind and downs over the years. Bearing in mind two and downs over the years. Bearing in mind two years ago we were still thinking mind two years ago we were still thinking is mind two years ago we were still thinking is the takeover going to happen .

First lets start with the conservative party conference, rishi sunak made several major went on everything from migration to net 02 Transport Projects and the economy. The team at bbc verify happy analysing the speech and working out what is right and what may be needs a little bit more digging into. Iam here with may be needs a little bit more digging into. I am here with the bbc head of statistics. Lets talk about the migration head of statistics. Lets talk about the migration plan. Head of statistics. Lets talk about the migration plan. Rishi head of statistics. Lets talk about the migration plan. Rishi sunaksl the migration plan. Rishi sunak� s claim here was probably pushing the number is a little bit. It is very speculative. His claim is assuming labour signed up to a very particular form labour signed up to a Very Particularform of a deal to labour signed up to a very particular form of a deal to the European Union that they have not done themselves yet. He said labour was my plan is to cook up some deal with the eu which could see us accepting 100,000 of european asylum seekers. Laboursaid accepting 100,000 of european asylum seekers. Labour said have said they would try and strike returns deal with the European Union. Keir starmer said he would think about accepting some migrants as part of that deal. If you did it with Population Sizes of eu countries, you would get 100,000, but that is not the deal labour has signed up to yet. To say it could lead to 100,000, could is doing heavy lifting in that sentence. Lifting in that sentence. Heavy liftin on lifting in that sentence. Heavy lifting on migration. Lifting in that sentence. Heavy lifting on migration. What lifting in that sentence. Heavy l lifting on migration. What about lifting in that sentence. Heavy lifting on migration. What about net zero . He was saying we can still hit net zero targets . This zero . He was saying we can still hit net zero targets . Zero . He was saying we can still hit net zero targets . This is the second art of the net zero targets . This is the second part of the speech, net zero targets . This is the second part of the speech, dealing net zero targets . This is the second part of the speech, dealing himself| part of the speech, dealing himself as the defender of common sense. He is defending Common People from paying more than they need to in order to get to net zero. The Climate Change committee to advise the government on the progress of decarbonising and emissions say one of the announcements the government has made, delaying petrol and diesel cars, that 2030 deadline was vital to meeting our 2030 targets. Before the announcement they said the confidence in meeting our carbon goals in the 20 30s had markedly declined. It does not mean we are guaranteed to miss them, but it does mean that confidence has fallen and the announcements the Prime Minister has made on this front didnt come free, they dont come without a cost to our chances of meeting our goals on decarbonisation, so there is a debate to be had about whether we are on target or not. Stiiiii debate to be had about whether we are on target or not. Are on target or not. Still a debate about that one. Are on target or not. Still a debate about that one. £36 are on target or not. Still a debate about that one. £36 billion, are on target or not. Still a debate about that one. £36 billion, this. About that one. £36 billion, this was a figure that the Prime Minister mentioned with relation to money not being spent on hs2, but now being put into all these other projects, rail and road projects across the north. £36 billion, where is the money coming from . Is it new money . They look like new projects but i am terribly ashamed as a statistician to come to you and say i dont have all the details yet because there are about 70 different projects that have been announced today and we havent gone through all of them. Once we have gone through so far it looks like project people have been lobbying for for a while and they are at the Planning Stage and Consultation Stage but have not been green lit. We end up needing to look at the rooms, really. If you look at the Midlands Rail hub around birmingham that is supposed to connect 50 stations, that is something that West Midlands mayor andy street took as a consolation prize. He did not get the full deal up prize. He did not get the full deal up from prize. He did not get the full deal upfrom birmingham prize. He did not get the full deal up from birmingham to manchester, but this was what made him say it was not a 1 0 loss. The labour mayor of west yorkshire, tracy brabin, has been consulting on a Transport Scheme there and £2. 5 billion are earmarked for that and she says the government needs to give the detail. That is the true, we need to detail and when will these projects land . When will the money be thrown back from elsewhere . We are still early into the process, but at this point this is a Big Pot Of Money from one big project or other projects. You big proect or other proects. You know big project or other proects. You know ou big project or other proects. You know you win h big project or other projects. You know you will be spending the next 12 hours going through every single word. Thank you so much.

Rishi sunak says the age at which people can buy cigarettes and tobacco in england should rise by one year every year so that eventually no one can buy them. Speaking at the conservative party conference, the uk Prime Minister said mps will be given a free vote in parliament on the issue. Under the plan, the age of sale would rise from 18 every year so a child aged 1a today would never be allowed to buy tobacco. Live now to south london with hazel cheeseman, the Deputy Chief Executive of ash action on smoking and health. Thank you very much for talking to us this afternoon. I am guessing i could guess your reaction to this, but, please, tell us your thoughts on what the Prime Minister said earlier on today. On what the Prime Minister said earlier on today.

Yes, we are absolutely delighted with the proposals and the important thing now is to see how we can get on and implement them. Outside of the speech further announcements have been made around additionalfunding for announcements have been made around additional funding for support to help smokers quit and to enforce regulations we have around e cigarettes. As a comprehensive set of measures it is very impressive and we look forward to seeing them put into effect. And we look forward to seeing them put into effect put into effect.

And also experience where we raised from 16 to 18 here in this country where we saw a similar drop in Smoking Rates among the affected age group. We know the source of measures can reduce rates of uptake among young people, which is really important. But the important thing is not to see this in isolation. The goal is to make smoking history in its entirety and alongside a package of support to make sure that we can support to make sure that we can support those who are already wanting to quit will set us on the path to really achieve that ambition.

Absolutely, the additional taxation on tobacco products, making them less affordable, has reduced consumption, and that is true whatever country has implemented a higher rate of taxation. They have seen that decline Smoking Rates. But we know it is not enough on its own, but you have to provide the support to help people to quit and motivate them to quit and regulate the places in which tobacco is sold. It is those sort of things together that bring down rates of smoking and bring down rates of smoking and bring down rates of smoking and bring down those rates of behaviour. I am sure if people can think that prior to the smoking ban how normal it seemed for smoking to be in almost every part of life and how conceivable that inconceivable it would be to go into a pub today and see somebody smoking. There has been massive change in the way that smoking is experienced and seen in society over the last 20 years and we will see that change again over the next 15 to 20 years and we will be coming back and saying, gosh, this is a crazy thing that we used to do and it is almost obsolete now in society.

First reaction the Tobacco Industry to rishi sunak� s announcement in his speech where he said he is eventually hoping you will not be able to buy cigarettes anywhere. Back in the late � 90s and early 20005, they were just about the most famous couple on earth. So well known they could be Indentified Byjust two words posh and becks. Now a new documentary on david and Victoria Beckham has come out. Its called, appropriately enough, beckham. Lets get a flavour of what its like. I never really did well at school because all i ever wanted to do was play football. My manager kept saying, try and keep it under wraps. So we would meet in car parks, and thats not seedy as it sounds. Its really entertaining when the circus comes to town, right . Unless you are in it. Its all right, they cant get in.

We know the headlines, we know all the Ups And Downs, but we dont really know behind the scenes and what they are like as a family unit and this is why this documentary is really worth a watch.

It is quite clever the way they do this because they dont actually mention the affair, they dont mention any of the parties involved, but both david and victoria talk about the impact that the aftermath that these allegations had. We have never seen victoria talk so frankly and she said it was the hardest period of her marriage, which is really rare for her to speak so frankly it like that. Really rare to hear things. Although we feel we know everything about them, they have kept their family life pretty private over the years. Is there a concern now that they have opened themselves up . They have let the cameras in and i cant really expect privacy Going Forward . That is always the danger of taking part in Something Like this. Definitely is, it is a concern of a lot of documentaries celebrities who do documentaries like this. But the big difference with them is because they have been this unit and its brand for so long, they have beenin its brand for so long, they have been in showbiz for such a long time making headlines, both of them in their own way and together and now has a family, that for them i think it is a really good way with this documentary to put their own feelings across about what it has been like to be in the spotlight with their own family and i dont think they will change the way they deal with the press or the social media at the moment. I think this is very much their way of putting out how they feel about things and that is the end of it unless they choose to do perhaps a documentary more focused and victoria.

It will help to fuel the views of those who argue that we can no longer think or act for the long term as a country and that we are heading in the wrong direction. That is from the former Prime Minister david cameron. Stay with us here on bbc news. Hello. A lot of cloud across the uk today and Rain Bearing Cloud across scotland. Its already been wet here and further pulses of rain in the next few days are forecast. The south of the country is a little bit brighter, warmer to highs of around 19 in london, 18 in liverpool. But here where we have the Weather Front, you can see wet south of the lowlands and in the north of scotland, fresher with some showers. Now, heres the forecast for tonight. Another area of low pressure is sweeping in. The winds are starting to blow in from the southwest, so that means mild conditions spreading across the uk. 12 in plymouth, about that in liverpool and belfast. But the other side of the Weather Front in the north of scotland, its still chilly and here is that low pressure with the wet weather moving to North Western parts of the country. The High Pressure centred across western europe. Thats the beginning of a warmer, settled spell of weather across the south. But you can see the extent of the cloud and the rain through thursday. So many of us are in for some damp conditions, but it will be relatively mild despite the clouds, the damp weather and the breeze. 17 there in belfast and probably nudging up to close to 20 degrees celsius there in the south. So thats thursday evening. Lets have a look at the forecast then as we head towards the end of the week. And again, more Weather Fronts in the northwest, more outbreaks of rain there heading to western scotland. You can see it spreading across the southern uplands, the lakes as well. But across the bulk of england and wales here well see temperatures nudging up to about 20 or 22 degrees celsius. Northerly, though, in the northern isles, so only around 12 to 1a. Then saturday into sunday, a low pressure out in the atlantic. Southerly winds developing across western parts of europe, an area of High Pressure and rising temperatures. So i think it could be 25 or 26 in london, 20 in newcastle. But its still fresh there in the north of scotland, only around 12 celsius, which is actually close to the Daytime Average for early october. But look at that. In the south, well be getting around 25 or six. The average is closer to 16. And take a look at this outlook for cardiff. For london, temperatures well into the 20s. Belfast also could exceed 20 degrees celsius this weekend. Thats it for me. Bye bye. Live from london. This is bbc news. Prime minister rishi sunak confirms he is scrapping a high speed rail link to manchester and will spend the money on new Transport Projects for the region instead.
