european union leaders meeting in slovenia are having to have discussions on europe's place in the world as they seek unity about how to deal with superpowers china and the us. it is the first gathering since june. still smarting from a secret submarine deal between the us, australia and the uk, emmanuel macron told reporters that europe needs to consider its independence. translation: technologically, industrially, economically, financially and also militarily, we must build also militarily, we must build a longer europe. you know that is what i'd deeply believe and. a europe which takes its share for itself and which can choose its partners and work closely with historical allies. the bi . . est with historical allies. the biggest of _ with historical allies. the biggest of those - with historical allies. the biggest of those historical allies is the us. but things have been frosty since it signed a military pack which meant australia backed out of a lucrative submarine deal with france. 0n lucrative submarine deal with france. on tuesday, the us secretary of state antony blinken was i

we are competing with the rest of the world, the rest of europe for gas supplies. unfortunately, it is the reality. price comparison sites, which historically talk about how much we can save you by switching. the reality is that is not there at the moment, and very few people for the whole of this year, really, have been in a position where they would be able to save, compared to last year. steel producers confirmed they halted production at times of high demand, showing that industry, as well as consumers, is feeling the impact of rising costs. some of the heat was drawn from the crisis yesterday when russia said it would increase gas supplies to europe, helping to limit the latest surge in wholesale gas prices. but it hasn't ended calls for the uk government to step in. the business secretary will be expected to address concerns of the energy sector today. but then also the worries of businesses and consumers in the weeks to come. 0ur our business correspondence victoria fritz said the situation is our business correspondence victoria fritz said the situation is

there have been many stops across europe. it takes you back when you see the physical reaction that we're getting, but also she's amazingly evocative. so, she's doing herjob. she has provoked strong feelings. in rome, the pope came out to meet her, but not everywhere has been quite so welcoming. especially at one stop in greece. people were stoning a puppet arriving? people were stoning a puppet arriving, which is nothing we expected, and feeling very strongly about it as well, shouting at her with everything they had. and here on the kent coast, which sees regular migrant arrivals along the shore, there is considerable local debate. this man is a ukip councillor, and he wasn't going to be meeting little amal. the event that's taking place in folkestone today is all about raising awareness, about being welcoming to refugees. you would rather folkestone was less welcoming? personally, yes. but i would welcome them if they came over here with a passport or equivalent documentation. but by folkestone harbour, the crowds were out

this is notjust a uk problem — it's europe wide — but there are serious concerns about the widespread impact it could have? yes, when you're trying to raise living standards it is about getting wages rising faster than prices and as the minister was speaking markets were conjuring up an iceberg for him in terms of the wholesale gas prices. i am going to show a chart which is the price is big energy companies pay for the gas that they sell on to you and you can see it going up and away and 2.72 pair firm, typically it is 50p or 60p, ip is seen to be a crisis, it fell back a bit of vladimir putin trying to soothe the market. what does this mean in practice? for now, because of the energy price cap until april consumers will be protected from that extraordinary rise in the wholesale market even though the prices have gone up this month but from april but industry insiders are suggesting is that that chart would mean a rise in domestic energy prices of 30% to 50%, £400 or 500 p, if it was sustained untiljanuary. that is a significant amount, the sort of amount that the government would h

and it's europe's only accurate outdoor replica, according to its designer, andy robertshaw, who's a military historian. his grandfatherjohn fought in the first world war. he was a private soldier between 1916 and 1919. wounded twice, gassed twice. i mean, if he died in the great war, i'm not here. and it's not his first. he built four trenches, including this one in his garden. on your ladders, boy! on your ladders, boys! as well as a historian, he's also a hollywood film adviser, working with steven spielberg. whistle blows. pipes play. here he is in 2011, blowing the whistle in war horse. whistle blows. now, it's for schools and the army to learn about the realities of war. and today, the trench is full of 11—year—old boys rehearsing their school play. it shows how gruesome and dirty it has been for them and it shows how strong they must have been to carry on, even in difficult times without their families. these pouches were to hold the ammunition. i each soldier could carry up to 150 rounds of ammunition. _ they also learn about food rationing and ammunition. just being cold

across europe have gathered a lot of respect. in europe there is probably a greater appreciation of what we have done in the way we have played that there has been here. that is reassuring because you want the respect of your peers and i think they have recognised where we have been over the last 30 years or so and there are signs that we are starting to show and the ability of the players to play in a certain style. chelsea midfielder mason mount could feature later, fresh from his place on the shortlist of nominees for football's prestigious ballon d'0r. he joins the likes of lionel messi and cristiano ronaldo, alongside harry kane, raheem sterling and phil foden, who are also nominated. not that he expects to win it. it was special. i probably found out exactly the same time as everyone else. to see that and to see the names, to be alongside those names, it is obviously a dream and i think for all the years that you work hard, dedicate, then you see something like that, you can see that it pays off. and it's just a start, it d

joe biden, on this trip to europe, wants to show that america is leading the world on tackling climate change. but his 85—vehicle convoy — most of which were flown in from the us — may not be leading by example or, in this holy city, practising what you preach. jon sopel, bbc news, rome. after meeting the pope, president biden went on for talks with his french counterpart emmanuel macron. relations between the us and france had been strained since washington announced a security deal with australia and the uk. the aukus deal to sell submarines to australia sidelined france and was said to have cost the country billions. president macron said they were rebuilding confidence while president biden admitted things could have been done better. what happened was, to use an english phrase, what we did was clumsy. it was not done with a lot of grace. it was was under the impression certain things had happened that had not happened and, but i want to make it clear france is an extremely, extremely valuable partner. let's discuss this with a visiting fellow at the centre on the united stat

england was the first nation in europe to fully unlock injuly. other countries have followed but have taken a more cautious approach. after a summer of increased human contact, infections have increased. as this graph shows, the uk has one of the highest covid rates in europe, well above that of france or germany. but if you look at the daily covid deaths, while the uk is still higher, a real concern for health leaders, the gap between the countries shrinks. this is an example of the power of the vaccination programme, providing vital protection to those most at risk. how will we cope this winter? the government hopes vaccines will protect us this winter, with more than two million booster jabs administered in england alone. to protect schoolchildren where infections are highest, covid vaccines are being rolled out to over 12s, while the nasal flu jab is available to under 16s. issues obtaining consent have caused delays, potentially to the end of november. concerned about health risks and disruption to education, experts say other measures shoul

after all, that is what europe offers. the full agenda was business as usual in terms of deliberations but there was still time to pay tribute to the woman who has helped steer the eu through economic and migration crises to the covid—19 pandemic. while her legacy will be mixed, known as a pragmatist rather than a visionary, she is still by far the longest serving among current eu leaders. translation: she is someone who, for 16 years, has really _ left her mark on europe. she has helped all 27 of us to make good decisions with a lot of humanity at times that were difficult. i recalled in 2020 july, very prompt the discussion on the financial framework, resilience fund, and in critical moments, angela was that lady, that madam who intervened and helped us to find a solution. her influence spanning far beyond europe. so many people, girls and boys, men and women, have had a role model who they could look up to through challenging times. i know, because i am one of them. the next european council is in december. it is like

europe's first mission to mercury is completing its first flyby. the spacecraft will fly past planet at high speeds, taking pictures and sending them back to earth. it will begin more detailed observations in four years' time. i have been speaking to a scientist who told me what it hopes to achieve. this mission is a flagship mission, with a lot of plans to do science on mercury. there have only been two previous missions to mercury, one a long time ago, mariner 10, and then more recently nasa's messenger mission. and this one, bepicolombo, is designed to answer a lot of questions raised by the messenger mission. we mentioned in the introduction the spacecraft is shooting past mercury. it is not actually landing on the planet. what are we watching for in the coming hours? well, the main thing that this flyby is supposed to accomplish is to alter the orbit, alter the trajectory of the spacecraft, as it goes around the sun. they would love to be able to enter orbit right now, because that's after all the goal of this mission — to orbit mercury for

because here in the us, unlike many countries such as the uk and others around europe, our response is horrific, it is to somehow ask ourselves for some reason, how we can work to protect somebody�*s right to have a weapon like a shooter at my high school is above trying to protect the rights of americans not to be shot. it is deeply frustrating because in 2018 we said to the adults, we need adults that are elected and will to protect our right not to be shot and they said we voted in record numbers in the united states and we did it again in 2020, and all that happened was that it will likely filibuster stopped as being able to pass life—saving legislation despite the vast majority of americans supporting it, like the simplest background checks, so it is deeply frustrating but ultimately i believe that my generation in a worst—case scenario will be the ones to end this because we will not let our children deal with this. ,., . ~' let our children deal with this. ., ., , this. going back to what is happening _ this. going back to what is happening with _ this. going back to what

since brexit, there is no longer the same flow of skilled workers from eastern europe and construction companies are having to pay more and more for the right staff. recognising they are in high demand, bricklayers in particular are going back to their contractors, asking for higher and higher pay. we are paying people what we need to pay them to attract them to come to work for us because the labour market is so hot at the moment. but what we are not seeing is the productivity of those people adding value to our business on all levels and at all times, and that is what businesses need to. in order for businesses to be sustainable and to grow, particularly as a small business, we need our productivity to be reflected in the increase in wages that we are paying. construction workers' pay has jumped by 9.7% this year. in the finance and business services sector, pay is rising even faster, up 11.1%. overall, stripping out distortions, the official estimate is that average earnings are up somewhere between 4.1 and 5.6%. the negative affect of labour shortages is most obvious in specialised

russia has europe's highest tally of covid fatalities at nearly 450,000 deaths. prince andrew has asked for... prince andrew has instructed lawyers to fight to clear his name. he has been accused of sexual abuse when virginia jaffray was 17, a minor under us state law. the lawyers have asked a court to dismiss the lawsuit or to require her to provide a more definitive statement of the allegations. the court papers stated that prince andrew never sexually abused or assaulted her, he unequivocally denies her false allegations against him. the document goes on, she has initiated this baseless lawsuit against prince andrew to achieve another payday until it —— at his expense and at the expense of those closest to him. a 2nd argument advanced by his lawyers is that she is not entitled to bring a lawsuit against him. they claim she forfeited the right in 2009 when she sued this man, jeffrey epstein, the person said to have organised the sex trafficking. he took his own life in prison 2 years ago. he had been a friend of andrew, but the prince's lawyers say the 2009

it has since levelled up to be one of the most productive regions in europe. stoke poges new store of course have its problems, but they are overwhelmingly caused by the sheer lust of other people to live in or near stoke poges. too little time with the kids, the constant anxiety that you're a memorial view of chalk downland is good to be desecrated by ugly new homes, and that is why levelling up works for the whole country, that is the right and responsible policy because it helps to take pressure off parts of the overheating south—east while simultaneously offering hope and opportunity to those areas that have felt left behind. and let's be clear that there is a huge philosophical difference between us and labour, because in their souls, they don't like levelling up. they like levelling down. they do. they like decapitating the tall poppies and taxing the rich until the pips squeak, they dislike academic competition, and i have seenin academic competition, and i have seen in my own eyes in islington, the like kids to run races when nobody actually wins. an
