Coming up in sport, world cup dreams could have ended in the very first minute but lionel messi hat trick secures argentinas place in russia. Good afternoon and welcome to the bbc news at one. The chancellor Philip Hammond has said taxpayers money will not be spent on preparing for a no deal brexit until the very last moment. He told mps he would make money available in a timely manner when needed but wouldnt take funding from other areas, like health or education now, just to send a message to the eu. Mr hammond also warned that flights between the uk and the eu could be grounded if there were no agreement before march 2019. Heres our Political Correspondent leila nathoo. Still smiles for now but brexit talks are faltering, and so, the no deal scenario has begun to loom. This morning, in the times, the chancellor, Philip Hammond, a key remain voice in the cabinet, wrote that he was preparing for that and all outcomes, but would only spend money when it was responsible to do so. Money when it was responsible to do so. Speaking to the Commons Treasury Committee this morning, he clarified his comments. Every pound we spend on contingent preparations for a hard Customs Border is a pound that we cant spend on the nhs or social care or education or deficit reduction. We will be ready, we will spend the money, in a timely fashion, to ensure that we are ready, but we will not spend it earlier than necessary , will not spend it earlier than necessary, just to make some demonstration point. At Prime Ministers questions, theresa may said £250 million of new money had already been given to departments to prepare for brexit but she denied gearing up to sever ties. We are not ramping up by no deal scenario, we are actively working, actively working with negotiations with the European Union to ensure that we set out and get a good deal, the right dealfor britain, for a Brighter Future for this country. Brexiteers in parliament are frustrated at the progress of negotiations and the insistence by brussels that divorce matters must be resolved first before talks can turn to trade. They wa nt before talks can turn to trade. They want the chancellor to show the eu that he is serious about leaving without an agreement. He needs to do the sums, he needs to set aside precisely the sort of sums we need, which i imagine well run into billions of pounds. What we cannot haveis billions of pounds. What we cannot have is a state of affairs where if we do terminate negotiations or the eu indicates it is not prepared to doa eu indicates it is not prepared to do a deal, we are left scrambling to find the infrastructure we need to operate new systems. Business is banking on a transition period to addressed to a new relationship with the eu but there is anxiety about the eu but there is anxiety about the two sides not striking a deal in time and how any new arrangements on customs or the rest would be brought in. I think he is right for the contingency plan to be drawn up, the concern is the length of time left to bring those contingency plans into operation. In the white paper they talk about setting up an inland custom support, so, clearly, things like land would have to be bought, systems introduced. There is not long to go. More than a quarter of the way through brexit negotiations, there is not any sign of a deal, within government, preparing for that eventuality is for some admission of defeat. For others it isa admission of defeat. For others it is a show of strength that britain will not be pushed around. All camps wa nt will not be pushed around. All camps want the talks to move on but it is for brussels to decide when. Lets talk to norman smith, assistant Political Editor in westminster. Given all that, is this reallyjust about money . Well, money is the latest flash point in what appears to be becoming a sort of gorilla war, waged by the tory brexiteers, against Philip Hammond, who they view as the remain in chief in the cabinet. They take the view that his refusal to set aside billions of pounds in the budget, to pay for beefing up border controls in the event of no deal, is notjust irresponsible, they say, but also, evidence that the chancellor is almost unwilling to countenance the very idea that there might not be a deal. 0n very idea that there might not be a deal. On top of that, they argue he is just too pessimistic and negative about brexit. Remarks suggest that ina about brexit. Remarks suggest that in a worst case scenario, air flights to the eu may be suspended if there is no deal. And what it points to i think is a fundamental split in the tory party between conservative brexiteers, who believe no deal is becoming a likely and maybe even desirable outcome, and those like Philip Hammond, who believe that every sinew should be strained to try to ensure access to the Single Market almost come what may. The spanish Prime Minister, Mariano Rajoy, says he wants clarification from catalonia on whether or not it has declared independence. Yesterday the catalan leader, Carles Puigdemont, signed a declaration of independence from spain, but suspended it to allow talks. The country has been in turmoil since the referendum when catalans voted to secede from spain, in a poll dubbed illegal by the spanish government. James reynolds reports now from madrid. The spanish cabinet, meeting this morning in madrid, wants catalonia to stay inside spain. For now, the government has put off emergency measures against the region. Instead, the Prime Minister has a simple question for the catalan leader. We need him to formally tell us whether or not he has declared independence, Mariano Rajoy says, and this will give our citizens the certainty they need. This is the speech that confuses the spanish government. Last night, Carles Puigdemont, catalan president , said his region had won the right to independence but would suspend its declaration. Possibly trying to have it both ways. This morning, catalans in barcelona were unsure of what may come next. Translation we are in the same position, or worse off, than we were yesterday. And there is more doubt now, it would be difficult for a state to arrange dialogue. Translation how much longer will this go on, we will be like this for some weeks, then we will go back to the drama. I really dont understand. Among people out this morning in madrid, a feeling of uncertainty. Translation in my opinion, Carles Puigdemont realised he was getting into big trouble, this is like a truce, but after the way he did it, im not quite sure how we he will solve the situation. It is very complicated for us but above all for catala ns. Translation i think the whole of spain should vote, and decide if we want catalonia to remain in spain or not. Here in madrid, there is a mood among some for tough action. Conservatives scorn and dismiss the authorities over in catalonia. They say that catalonia must obey the laws of spain. This afternoon, spains Prime Minister will come to this, the countrys parliament, to discuss catalonia, all in this capital, now waiting to hear back from the catalan leader.

The Energy Regulator has announced a price cap on energy bills for a million low income households, saving them on average £120 a year. But a wider cap, proposed by the Prime Minister last week for millions more customers, is unlikely to happen before the winter. Heres our personal finance correspondent simon gompertz. How to put a lid on gas and electricity prices for 12 million households on high, standard variable tariffs . The government has been pushing the regulator ofgem to do it. Ofgem thinks it doesnt have the power to go that far. That is a matter for parliament and we will see how quickly that will go through. That is a matter for parliament and we will see how quickly that will go through. I cannot tell you how quickly that will or will not go through parliament. But what i can tell you is that we will be ready to implement it as soon as it does. The Prime Minister said she would move to impose a full cap. This government will publish a draft bill to put a price cap on energy bills. The government hoped the bill would not be needed in the end if ofgem took action. But now a full cap for this winter looks unlikely. What will this mean for Customers Energy bills . There will be a limited price cap from the surgery. This february. That will come in for the i million households which qualify for the warm home discount. They are expected to save around £120 a year. And next year ofgem has plans to extend that cap. That will mean savings for a further 2 million vulnerable households. So it something to control gas and electricity bills but not as much as ministers wanted. I welcome their recognition that the market is not working for many consumers. But i do not think it goes far enough and fast enough. I think it is important that consumers who are overpaying should be given some relief from that. So that is why i will proceed and bring forward legislation later this week that will compel them to do that. Meanwhile, suppliers say more people are switching energy deals to get their bills down. And several have signalled that they will soon start phasing out standard variable tariffs. As of the First Quarter of next year were going to be moving thousands customers every day off the svt. And we will move them onto one of our other tariffs. At its most basic that will be fixed price deal which will be priced lower than the standard variable terror. Tariff. Which means just as a government cap on Expensive Energy comes in in time for winter a yearfrom now, suppliers could be well into a programme of moving customers away from those problems tariffs in any case. Simon gompertz, bbc news. The number of people dying from heroin or morphine abuse has doubled in five years to more than 1,600 in england, wales and scotland, the highest on record. Four of the uks police and Crime Commissioners have told the bbc theyd like to see the drugs decriminalised for personal use. Our special correspondent ed thomas reports, and his piece contains images of drugs and drug equipment. County durham, searching for the next hit. I havent got time to look for a job. Being a drug addict is a full timejob. Every day, the same. By the time i do get sorted, its time to start all over again. And this is lisas life. A mother, ruled by heroin. I put it before my children. Do you need heroin more than your children . Yes. I do. Before all this, lisa was married with five children, two jobs. Then she faced violence, heroin, and despair. I lost my oldest daughter and thats basically where, ive been on it since. I use that as like a coping. I havent really dealt with her death. Ijust buried my head in the sand. Every five hours in the uk someone dies after taking heroin or morphine. In the north east, there are more drug related deaths than anywhere else in the world. How many friends have you lost . Theres loads. How many . At least 20. 20 friends . From heroin overdoses . Yes. And this is the cost of addiction on our streets. Walked in, noticed the fridge was gone. Came in to the kitchen, cooker gone. Look at all the needles youve got lying around in there. On patrol with durham police. There is uncapped needles there. Every day, the same. The only way theyre going to fund that habit is by dishonest means, which is going to be stealing stuff. One adult male, shoplifting. The government says up to half of all crimes like shoplifting, theft and robbery, are committed by offenders who use cocaine, crack cocaine and heroin. The majority of the people we deal with are repeat people all the time. Whether it be thefts from shops, small, low level crime, to fund an addiction. Are you seeing the same faces again and again . Yes. Co nsta ntly. The same faces. Again. And again. Can you tell us how you feel . Just sick. How many times have you been arrested . Over 100. Now theres a call for radical change. I think the first thing is to actually decriminalise personal use. Of heroin . Of all drugs. If we go down that particular route, that then opens the door for a medical solution to the problem. In switzerland, Durhams Police and crime commissioner is looking for that medical solution. They tend to ask for less and less, rather than more. It is called heroin assisted treatment. He believes it can reduce crime and save lives. It costs around £15,000 per year, per patient. For some the idea of bringing this to durham is controversial. What do you say to people who say, ive worked all my life, so why on earth are these people, many of them offenders, getting money from the state for heroin . I dont hear any outcry about people getting nicotine patches to give up nicotine. But it is a health problem. I do not hear criticism about people getting help with their alcoholism. Its a health problem. The policies weve adopted so far havent worked. We need to radically change those. Lisa knows this could one day kill her. She wants change and believes heroin assisted treatments could save her life. What would that mean to you . Everything. It would mean i could actually start living again without having to run about like a headless chicken just trying to sort my day out. Because by the time i do get sorted its time to start all over again. And that is all every day consists of. Well our home editor mark easton is here. The deaths are the highest on record. What is this likely to do to government policy . record. What is this likely to do to government policy . I think ministers we re government policy . I think ministers were truly shocked the summer when the figures came out. And quietly behind the scenes there has been something of a policy shift. On that film with all heroine assisted Treatment Centres. In this country in fact we have had in three pilot schemes going on 29 years, they only stopped last year and those centres, the funding has now stopped but government is saying that they were successful and actually if local errors wanted to introduce these Treatment Centres where basically the state provides chronic users with heroine, died as a matterfor them. There is the second model, called drug consumption rooms and thatis called drug consumption rooms and that is where a street drug user could go in supervised centre with their own drugs confident that they would be immune from prosecution there and actually theres a plan to open one in glasgow. They are at a very late stage, they had identified the building, they have injection and inhalation rules. And the idea ofa and inhalation rules. And the idea of a consumption will was rejected by the government a year ago but now theyre saying, maybe it is the best way of dealing with this. Our top story this lunchtime. The chancellor says hell wait until the last moment before spending public money to prepare for a no deal brexit plan. Mr hammond said he wouldnt take money f
