says addressing the risks of the technology should be a global priority. let's head to the bbc sport centre. we're starting with the cricket world cup because it looks like ngland are making an early exit england's campaign at the cricket world cup is all but over after a heavy eight—wicket defeat by sri lanka. the defending champions reached 45 for no loss before the wicket of dawid malan began a miserable slide. joe root ran himself out for just three ben stokes managed 43... but they were all out inside 3a overs. sri lanka eased to victory jos buttler�*s side are not mathematically out, but they need to win all of their remaining matches, including against unbeaten hosts india on sunday, and hope an unlikely set of results go their way. it was never for a it was neverfor a lack it was

near the way we wanted it to. it has been a huge disappointment.— newcastle and italy midfielder sandro tonali has been banned for ten months by the italian football federation for breaching betting rules. tonali joined newcastle from ac milan injuly for 55 million pounds. he is the second player to be sanctioned, following the investigation. 0ur reporter matt graveling has more. what does this mean? ten months would take him all the way through to the end of august, so he will be ineligible for any kind of football, that means no more premier league involvement for eddie howe's men looking back to get in the champions league for the second time this season. more importantly 42 and a personal level, if italy do qualify for euro 2024 in germany in the summer, he would be ineligible to play for them, too. it's another big night of european football and liverpool will be looking to maintain their 100% record in the europa league later today when they face toulouse. liverpool sit top of group e following wins over lask and union saint—gilloise, their oponents toulouse lifted the french cup last season and are also unbeaten in europe. managerjurgen klopp knowsjust how much of a threat they pose. they are a really young team, really talented team, a football team, i've seen them playing and it is really nice, they have a clear idea. so we have to make sure that we are really ready. and then it is about others, it is very important we create an atmosphere through the way we play. there's plenty of action across the europa league later. west ham are looking to take control of group a, they face 0lympiakos. brighton host manargerless ajax, with both sides looking to pick up their first win in europe this season. in europe this season. things are level in group c, with

afghanistan and then fled the taliban, are still waiting to be relocated in the uk. pakistan has ordered all unregistered afghan refugees to leave the country by the 1st of november or face repatriation. with me is our reporter, sharon barbour. sta rt start off by telling me a little more about who is on board and roughly how many. we more about who is on board and roughly how many.—

so that may have been interpreters, english teachers or others who have worked out there for the uk. what they all have in common is they have all left afghanistan since the taliban came into power in 2021. so visas to get them out of their ad to be processed, they could not be processed, they could not be processed in afghanistan, it had to be in pakistan. so the uk government said, well, go there

now, we have been hearing from some of them talking about their predicament. so in terms of the timings, tell me more about that. there are two key reasons. last year, the prime minister rishi sunak said before they came here and there are quite a few, he wanted long—term accommodation in place. he didn't want them to go into hotels. they have been trying to clear the hotels and they cost quite a lot of money, so that is one reason. the other reason is life —— last month, the pakistani government made an announcement that he wanted everybody, all illegal immigrants in pakistan to leave the country by november the 1st come at less than a week away. so many of those who had visas, they were only three months, they have run out, and they fear they have run out, and they fear they will be deported back to afghanistan. you said the government doesn't want to put them into hotels, so is it clear where these people will actually end up? it is not clear really, _ people will actually end

people back. but in that statement, the ministry of defence said that the uk has made an ambitious and generous commitment to help at—risk people in afghanistan so far, they are brought around 24,600 people to safety and they say new arrivals will go directly into settled accommodation where possible.— directly into settled accommodation where possible. thanks very much for takin: us where

than a million nhs staff in england this year. but thousands of staff who are outsourced such as community nurses and physiotherapists will not get that bonus because they are not directly employed by the nhs. here's our health editor hugh pym. julie is a physiotherapist working for a community health provider in surrey and she wears an nhs badge. alison, it'sjulie. i'm just coming in. here, she visits alison, who has a lung condition, to carry out tests and check her oxygen intake. 0k, and are you using the canisters at a higher level than the concentrator? i use it at five — five litres. if i'm walking around. julie used to work directly for the nhs, but the local contract has since been transferred to a non—profit—making independent employer. she's on the same pay and conditions deal as before, but she's one of thousands who've missed out on a special extra payment to nhs staff. i feel completely demoralised. i'm totally demoralised. our team worked throughout the pandemic. we worked incredibly hard. we were treating patients in the community — trying to keep them out of hospital. we work tirelessly. we're nhs when we're working with the nhs patients and then, for this, suddenly we're not nhs. i don't understand how it suddenly doesn't count. the pay deal in england involved a 5% wage rise for many nhs staff and a one—off lump sum payment, ranging from nearly £1,700 tojust under 3,800, and that payment is not going to health workers likejulie. now, some employers are planning legal action. we're prepared to go to the courts to ensure that these staff get what they deserve, to get the government to recognise that they've wrongly ignored a group of staff delivering key nhs services. julie has a simple message for ministers. i would like the government to recognise that we worked as hard as everybody else, that we are in the nhs. some other health workers are also affected and have been lobbying the government. the department of health said the work of all staff is valued and they are considering the position of funding payments for those in non—nhs organisations. hugh pym, bbc news. the prime minister says addressing the risk of extinction that artificial intelligence poses should be a global priority. in a speech this morning, rishi sunak also said the technology could be transformational, leading to newjobs, new opportunities for growth and help to develop cancer vaccines. next week, the uk will host a global summit at bletchley park to look at the risks posed by ai. mr sunak says people shouldn't be losing sleep over it, but warned that the concerns need to be taken seriously. they are doing the right thing, not the easy thing, and it means being honest with people about the risks from these technologies. so i won't hide them from you. that's why today, for the first time, we have taken a highly unusual step of publishing our analysis of the risks of ai, including an assessment by the uk intelligence communities. these reports provide a stark warning. get this wrong and ai could make it easier to build chemical or biological weapons, terrorist groups could use ai biological weapons, terrorist groups could use al to spread fear and destruction on an even greater scale, criminals could exploit ai for cyber attacks, disinformation, fraud or even child sexual abuse. and in the most unlikely but extreme cases, there is even the risk that humanity could lose control of ai completely through the kind of ai sometimes referred to ask super intelligence. indeed, to quote the statement made earlier this year by hundreds of the world's leading ai experts, mitigating the risk of extinction from al should be a global priority, alongside other societal scale risks such as pandemics and nuclear war. bbc technology editor zoe kleinman was there for that speech at westminster. what we have seen rishi sunak deliver here today is a really difficult message where on the one hand, he's talking about the absolute worst threats posed by artificial intelligence, this incredibly powerful and rapidly evolving technology. he talked about bio—terrorism, which is truly terrifying. but i think lots of people, there is a much more immediate threat that is a lot closer to home and that is the disruption tojobs. we closer to home and that is the disruption to jobs. we are already seeing an al tool start to take over lots of administrative based tasks that have traditionally been done by humans. the prime minister says the solution to this is an education and he is also hoping that the uk will be able to keep people safe from the bigger threats by creating a safety institute. the question is whether he can bring either of those things in in time. let's return to the breaking news of an arrest of a conservative mp. tell us more. well, we know that surrey police have arrested a conservative mp in his 60s on suspicion of rape and also possession of controlled substances. the man was arrested yesterday morning, the 25th of october and released on conditional police bail pending further inquiries. the conservative party haven't commented this evening when we have approached them for comment. this is the latest sexual misconduct allegation to rock the party, though. understanding this is separate to cases that have been previously reported in recent months. for example, we know that another conservative mp in his 50s is currently on bail after being arrested in may last year. that was on suspicion of indecent assault, sexual assault, on suspicion of indecent assault, sexualassault, rape, on suspicion of indecent assault, sexual assault, rape, abuse of position of trust and misconduct in public 0ffice. now, that mp is in his 50s and his bail has been extended to a date in late february, according to metropolitan police. we know this week again separately on wednesday, the tory former minister peter bone who is in his 70s was suspended from the house of commons for six weeks for bullying and sexual misconduct allegations, which he denies. so separate allegations. but this is the latest in a string of sexual misconduct allegations that has now rocked the conservative party. i that has now rocked the conservative pa . ., , ~ ., , that has now rocked the conservative pa . ., that has now rocked the conservative party. i only wales at westminster, thanks for the _ party. i only wales at westminster, thanks for the latest _ party. i only wales at westminster, thanks for the latest on _ party. i only wales at westminster, thanks for the latest on that - thanks for the latest on that breaking story, thank you. it has been a symbol of remembrance for more than a century, but for the first time in decades, the poppy has undergone a change and is now entirely plastic free. 0ur reporter fiona lamdin has more. i was just very pleased that i was there. i can say i was there at 7.30 on the 6th ofjune 1944. newsreel: the dawn ofjune the 6th comes up like thunder _ over the invasion coast. john roberts is now 99, but remarkably remembers every detail of the d—day landings — the largest seaborne invasion in history, which marked the start of the campaign to free europe from the nazis 79 years ago, when he was just 20. i could just see, eight miles ahead, the french coast. and that made an impact on me because we were fighting for france, and i'd been at war for three orfour years, but i'd never seen the french coast before. he was serving in the navy, firing shells at german troops on sword beach — all the time, knowing their ship could come under attack. there was suddenly a great explosion and the destroyer that was about a thousand yards on the port side of ours, towards le havre, was torpedoed and, within two or three minutes, it broke in half and was like a big v and then sank. i've survived the war. i've been so lucky and i know so many other people who weren't lucky. remembering them, i feel, is a part of my life and i will go on doing it as long as i'm alive. newsreel: to express the hope that you will buy at least one _ of the poppies made by men wounded in the last and the present wars - to commemorate remembrance day. and since 1921, the poppy, which was initially made from silk, has been adopted as a symbol of remembrance. her majesty the queen to give them royal encouragement. _ this year, already a quarter- of a million poppies have been sent to our fighting forces overseas. starting life at this mill in cumbria, the poppy paper is made from recycled cardboard coffee cups, which is then dyed red before being printed at this factory in kent. and for the first time ever, the poppy is 100% paper and completely plastic—free, having been redesigned after 28 years. put your glasses on. see if we can spot you. and forjohn, the memories of d—day are more vivid than ever. despite being nearly 100, john's turned his hand to acting and appears alongside michael caine in the film the great escaper. and i said, "michael, you and i have something in common. we both have the korean medal." and that took him back because nobody else had said that to him. here's michael caine walking down the street and i had to walk behind him. there i am, with a white beret on. i was thinking it was wonderful to have been in this film when i'd actually been there myself. 0n the day, my ship would have been out there — three miles at sea. i had four cousins who died. i had three mates of mine at dartmouth who died when their ship was mined and sank. it's my duty never to forget them. that really is what the poppy symbolises — that we're never going to forget those who aren't here any more. the eurovision song contest as to the liverpool city region by more than £55 million, higher than the original prediction of 25 million. liverpool stage that event on behalf of the winners of the 2022 contest war—torn ukraine. let's get more on those figures. live now to our business reporter noor nanji who is in liverpool. that is quite a turn out, tell us more. i that is quite a turn out, tell us more. , , .,, ., ._ that is quite a turn out, tell us more. , , ., ., more. i spent most of the day at the acc and liverpool's _ more. i spent most of the day at the acc and liverpool's waterfront, - more. i spent most of the day at the acc and liverpool's waterfront, a - acc and liverpool's waterfront, a stone's throw away from when the main event was held in may. the uk stepped in to host the contest on behalf of ukraine which was unable to do that because of the war. so we had the main three set piece televised events, but there was also the fan village, a two week cultural festival and a host of other events as well. so the point of today �*s event was to try to quantify what was the impact of all of that, what did it mean to liverpool to host an event such as that? according to the council which publish this new research today, more than 300,000 people attended eurovision —related events in and around liverpool city centre during that two week period. that is a huge amount people, it is well above what they estimated as well. and there was also an economic boost of £55 million as you said and that was because of people going out to spend and things like the shops and hotels and restaurants and bars, they were all really busy during that time. so as you say, real economic boost here and well above what the council was early predicting. it also makes it the most profitable eurovision yet in terms of the published figures that we have. there are some important caveats, not all of the countries do publish that data and also, the methodology may differ in other countries. and what about the fans, what are they saying? good question, lots of fans attended the event today, some of them were die—hard fans of eurovision who are there every year and they were just there to soak up the atmosphere, they really enjoyed the events back in may. there were other people who said it was the first eurovision they had ever attended. i met a group of students who said they were based to studying and liverpool and they said they would go down and see what it was about and now they are hocked and they are going to go back every year. and there was a real sense of pride that liverpool had been chosen to host the contest and also a sense of this putting the uk on the map in a way international people will perceive the city. thanks very much. the british artist david shrigley has pulped thousands of copies of the best selling novel the da vinci code, and turned them into limited editions of george 0rwell�*s dystopian classic nineteen eighty four. but why? and what is he trying to say? here's colin paterson. more than 6,000 copies of the da vinci code, one of the best—selling books of the century, being pulped in the name of art. this is a story which begins back in 2017, in an 0xfam shop in swansea. around that time, there was one particular donation that we were getting kind of a little more than we could use, which was the da vinci code, because it's such a massive bestseller. made this pile of da vinci codes by the counter, which said, "yeah, you could give us another da vinci code, but to be honest, we'd rather have your vinyl." the sign went viral and caught the eye of the turner prize—nominated artist david shrigley. so that sparked my imagination, in the sense that i was like, "i want those. i don't know why, but i want them". it's not the right size. his team began to search. originally, we just went round charily— originally, we just went round charity shops and we realise that wasn't _ charity shops and we realise that wasn't the — charity shops and we realise that wasn't the best way of doing it because — wasn't the best way of doing it because we were just getting two or three _ because we were just getting two or three at— because we were just getting two or three at a _ because we were just getting two or three at a time and it would probably— three at a time and it would probably take years. da vinci code, original cover. we made inquiries and there is a recycling place where all the unwanted books go, and they had an almost limitless number. with the help of the plant in oxford, david shrigley now had 6,000 da vinci codes. but what to do with them? i read nineteen eighty—fouragain, having read it years ago. i realised that george orwell had died in 1950, so it was coming up for 70 years since his death which, as you probably know, means that all of his work's in the public domain. so it means anyone can publish. so the da vinci codes were pulped and turned into paper that became 1,200 copies of 1984, each unique. and the twist? they're to be sold in the same shop where the original sign went up. and you can see the spine that we've designed. the price — £495 for each book, with a proportion of the proceeds going to 0xfam. and there is already another book the shop is close to turning away. probably what it is at the moment is the richard 0sman series, the thursday murder club stop. daeid thursday murder club stop. david romises thursday murder club stop. david promises he _ thursday murder club stop. david promises he will _ thursday murder club stop. david promises he will not _ thursday murder club stop. david promises he will not be _ thursday murder club stop. david promises he will not be collecting them. colin paterson, bbc news, swansea. that is almost it from today. ijust want to show the live pictures, let's go back to the un general assembly in new york because we expect next at the podium the us ambassador, we have heard from the palestinians and israelis through the course of the last couple of hours and the iranian and last year so we will hear from the americans next. so that is happening in new york and i will show you the pictures from the white house, because we expect in the next little while, it doesn't look very imminent, but that is the white house, so we wait that briefing as well. of course, any detail on the middle east and the shooting in maine, where 18 people were shot in that shooting last night. and the president has spoken about that as the hunt for the gunmen continues. so those are a couple of the live events we expect in the next hour or so, so stay with us here on bbc news and we will bring you significant moments from both events here on bbc news in the next little while. but thatisit news in the next little while. but that is it from today, thanks very much for watching and hopefully, i will see the next time, goodbye. hello there. good evening. it's been a very wet october for some of us, not for all of us, but especially wet across central and eastern areas of england, and particularly for eastern scotland. not a lot is set to change for the rest of the month, it stays and settled across the uk with more heavy showers to come and also some longer spells of rain. if we just take a look at the rainfall accumulation chart over the next few days, you can see those bright colours starting to merge again in eastern scotland, parts of the higher ground could see as much as 50 to 100 millimetres of rain, it is fulling and saturated ground and could cause some more problems may be. why is it happening? low pressure is outward to the west, where it will stay. more showers spiralling around. the south—easterly winds, brisk towards the east coast of scotland, just driving those showers further unsure. and overnight tonight, there will be some clear spells developing i think further south for england and wales, some mist martin low cloud possibly forming, showers out towards the west, so not completely dry and temperatures to start day will be on the mild side, certainly frost—free. six to 10 celsius. and into friday, again, nothing much changes. the low pressure is still out towards the west, showers spiral around it, we still have the best south—easterly wind for eastern scotland is going as a sort —— acting as a conveyor belt. a constant stream of showers. a lot of the rain quite light and patchy, but pretty relentless as we head through the day and the rainfall totals will rack up once again. further south, a lot of dry weather, summerson is ——, some sunny intervals and heavy possibly thundery showers and a flash of lightning. temperatures once again between ten and 15 celsius. a little above the average towards the south. and then on saturday, it is more of the same. we will still see the showers across eastern scotland driving further westwards perhaps, the wind picking up westwards perhaps, the wind picking up towards the south west of england ljy up towards the south west of england by the end of the day can expect to see heavy and persistent outbreaks of rain by the end of the afternoon here. there are localised weather warnings in force. and that rain is going to be pushing further north as we head through saturday night and into sunday. falling on saturated ground in some places. still some uncertainty on the timing. low pressure still with us into next week, staying and into sunday. following on saturated ground in some places. still some uncertainty on the timing. low pressure still with us into next week, staying unsettled. goodbye. tonight at six, a gunman described as armed and dangerous is still being hunted in the us state of maine — one city is in lockdown. shootings in at least two locations, including at a bowling alley, left 18 people dead. police say they're looking for a 40—year—old army reservist and that the public shouldn't approach him. it's extremely important we locate this guy and we locate him fast. and, you know, if he's listening, he should turn himself in. our other main story tonight: israel sends tanks into gaza in an overnight raid, it says in preparation for the next stages of combat. the hospitals in gaza continue to be overrun with casualties.
