Seema who is chatting to ex-Premier League star striker Dean Ashton!

:00:00.:00:00.

It's Friday, I'm Hayley so here's what's going on in the world.

:00:00.:00:08.

One of golf's biggest stars wants the Ryder Cup.

:00:09.:00:11.

But first David Cameron's asking if the UK will join

:00:12.:00:24.

the fight against the Islamic militant group IS in Iraq.

:00:25.:00:27.

Politicians are expected to vote on whether Britain will be involved

:00:28.:00:30.

IS has taken over large parts of Iraq and Syria

:00:31.:00:36.

and wants to create a new country with strict Islamic rules.

:00:37.:00:40.

America has already carried out some targeted air strikes on IS and

:00:41.:00:45.

US President Barack Obama has asked other countries to work together to

:00:46.:00:48.

David Cameron has said the UK can't stay out of the fight.

:00:49.:00:57.

Here you've got Isis which is a terrorist organisation

:00:58.:01:00.

It has oil, it has money, it has territory and weapons and there is

:01:01.:01:04.

no doubt in my mind it has already undertaken and is planning further

:01:05.:01:07.

This is a fight you cannot opt out of.

:01:08.:01:15.

Britain's joining many other countries in ongoing talks

:01:16.:01:17.

We asked BBC security correspondent Gordon Corera to answer some

:01:18.:01:20.

questions about what this means for people in the UK.

:01:21.:01:26.

The UK government says it wants to get involved in military action

:01:27.:01:29.

against a group calling itself IS or Islamic State because it views it

:01:30.:01:33.

as a threat, not just in Iraq and Syria but perhaps around the world.

:01:34.:01:38.

The United States has already been attacking the Islamic State

:01:39.:01:43.

and bombing it from the air in Iraq and now in Syria.

:01:44.:01:46.

And Britain now wants to get involved in that military action

:01:47.:01:49.

as well although perhaps in a slightly different way.

:01:50.:01:55.

The plan at the moment is not for British troops to go

:01:56.:01:58.

But for British warplanes to drop bombs specifically on Iraq.

:01:59.:02:06.

The plan is not to put a large amount of soldiers into Iraq

:02:07.:02:10.

or Syria, like what happened in Afghanistan but simply to carry

:02:11.:02:14.

There have been concerns that the danger here

:02:15.:02:24.

in the UK has increased somewhat in the last few weeks and months.

:02:25.:02:27.

From this group trying to do something.

:02:28.:02:31.

The chances of any individual being caught up remains very low indeed.

:02:32.:02:41.

And if you're upset by anything you see in the news, we have lots of

:02:42.:02:44.

advice and background information on our webpage - so do check that out.

:02:45.:02:48.

It's the first day of the famous Ryder Cup and the world's number one

:02:49.:02:52.

It's thought thousands will be there to watch Europe's best players take

:02:53.:02:56.

Rory's had an amazing year, and he's hoping his team will help him add

:02:57.:03:03.

Later this morning we'll be talking to people in his home town

:03:04.:03:08.

in Northern Ireland who hope he can help Europe retain the Ryder Cup.

:03:09.:03:14.

When Rory grew up here he was basically brought

:03:15.:03:16.

into the club almost, his dad was a really good golfer.

:03:17.:03:19.

When he was seven he was better than everyone,

:03:20.:03:22.

Rory is very good, he won the Open championship this

:03:23.:03:31.

year with the claret jug and some members got their photograph taken.

:03:32.:03:37.

Been a big surgeon to the UK. For mercy there are crops are being

:03:38.:03:49.

destroyed because they cannot used pesticide which were banned to

:03:50.:03:52.

protect bees. The chemicals had to stop being used because it was

:03:53.:04:01.

thought they could harp the bees. -- harm.

:04:02.:04:03.

And loads of you have sent in questions for War Horse author

:04:04.:04:05.

He's written a new book marking 100 years since

:04:06.:04:08.

We'll be chatting to him live on the sofa at quarter past eight.

:04:09.:04:13.

So let's just look at what he's achieved.

:04:14.:04:15.

He is one of Britain's best loved writers. Writer of more than 100

:04:16.:04:22.

:04:23.:04:27.

:04:28.:04:34.

Now take a look at this baby meerkat.

:04:35.:04:35.

Keepers at an animal rescue centre in Penrith, in Cumbria, say it was

:04:36.:04:39.

an unexpected arrival They had no idea the mother was pregnant until

:04:40.:04:41.

The sanctuary's about to move to a new site in

:04:42.:04:46.

County Durham, and this new family will be the last to move over.

:04:47.:04:49.

And there's just enough time to tell you about the family with

:04:50.:04:51.

a water slide in their garden - you can read about them on our website.

:04:52.:04:55.
