:00:46. > :00:48.to rise, but it was up 1% in September across a basket
:00:49. > :00:51.One of the reasons was the increase in fuel costs.
:00:52. > :00:53.Petrol and diesel have been rising steeply
:00:54. > :00:56.and they are expected to continue rising in the weeks to come.
:00:57. > :00:58.They have been hit by a double whammy.
:00:59. > :01:01.Brent crude, is the benchmark price and that has been rising
:01:02. > :01:05.and in January it hit a low point of $30 but now it is over $50.

:01:09. > :01:10.so anything which is valued in foreign currency including oil,
:01:11. > :01:20.That is driving costs up right across the economy.
:01:21. > :01:22.Inflation is measured with a shopping basket of more
:01:23. > :01:24.than 700 everyday items in the household budget
:01:25. > :01:27.and many of them will be affected by the same thing.

:01:57. > :02:02.continue to fall in September, but don't expect that to last.
:02:03. > :02:05.The price inflation basket is a very large one but it is not big enough
:02:06. > :02:09.to include housing costs, and we also get figures on them.

:03:01. > :03:02.There's a leadership vacuum in Ukip, which has had a torrid time

:03:10. > :03:12.Ukip politician - was considering the move.
:03:13. > :03:18.Our political correspondent, Andrew Kerr has more.
:03:19. > :03:20.David Coburn was elected two years ago to serve
:03:21. > :03:31.Now his sights could be set on the top Ukip job.

:03:56. > :03:59.experience in running Scotland so hopefully that would be helpful,
:04:00. > :04:04.but we have a lot of people, very talented in Ukip and we need
:04:05. > :04:16.to settle on somebody who will do a good job that we can agree with.

:04:42. > :04:44.Whilst that is happening, they are letting down the members
:04:45. > :04:49.I do think at this stage Ukip is ungovernable.
:04:50. > :04:57.David Coburn doesn't recognise that portrayal.

:07:07. > :07:13.This lengthy independent report into Graeme Morris's care
:07:14. > :07:17.in Brighton where he was living has found a number of failings
:07:18. > :07:21.and weaknesses in his treatment and assessments and a failure

:07:36. > :07:40.Despite that the report concludes that Graeme Morris's violent attack

:07:58. > :07:59.for his care, gave this apology to his father.
:08:00. > :08:05.I apologise entirely, this is not something we wanted
:08:06. > :08:10.to happen and I can understand how devastating it is for him.
:08:11. > :08:13.There is nothing I can say that can bring his wife back.
:08:14. > :08:15.I would want to assure him that we are serious
:08:16. > :08:25.Cafes, shops and restaurants in Aberdeen have signed up

:08:32. > :08:35.It is still a fairly uncommon sight in public,

:08:41. > :08:52.Businesses are being recruited to display their breast-feeding
:08:53. > :08:55.I have gone to a few places myself where I've been desperate
:08:56. > :08:59.to breast-feed and to have a sign on the door to say that
:09:00. > :09:01.you are welcome is good and I will feel less uncomfortable.
:09:02. > :09:03.Still in this country compared to Sweden where I'm from,
:09:04. > :09:07.you rarely see people breast-feeding in public, and it is important that
:09:08. > :09:08.women who have just given birth have got
:09:09. > :09:10.the opportunity to go out and do
:09:11. > :09:13.what needs to be done and also have safe places to breast-feed,
:09:14. > :09:15.where we have facilities to change our babies
:09:16. > :09:26.This is one of more than 60 cafes, shops and restaurants
:09:27. > :09:29.in Aberdeen which have already signed up to the scheme,
:09:30. > :09:33.they will display a logo saying that breast-feeding is OK here,
:09:34. > :09:36.women can see it as a safe and secure environment for them
:09:37. > :09:44.The aim of the scheme is to reduce the stigma and to make it more
:09:45. > :09:48.It is a woman's right to be able to breast-feed in public
:09:49. > :09:52.but it is helping them to feel more comfortable to do that.
:09:53. > :09:56.This cafe is already a haven for breast-feeding mothers,
:09:57. > :10:03.We have had a great response, we have done this now for four years
:10:04. > :10:06.and there has been no negativity from any guests and we have
:10:07. > :10:09.been bold enough to say, use our units to breast-feed.
:10:10. > :10:13.Is this it scheme something older mothers approve of?
:10:14. > :10:16.Someone of my age, we didn't do it, but it is all changed
:10:17. > :10:21.When you were breast-feeding you would not have gone
:10:22. > :10:27.If it had been happening at the time, I would have done,
:10:28. > :10:33.but everything was hidden in those days.
:10:34. > :10:37.This is the logo to look out for, it is dotted around businesses
:10:38. > :10:39.in Aberdeen city centre but the scheme is already expanding

:10:57. > :11:01.More than half the number of call-outs were false
:11:02. > :11:17.Here is the weather. There is a lot of dry and settled
:11:18. > :11:23.weather in the forecast over the next few days and we need to look to

:11:48. > :11:54.two showers. Still quite breezy. Nothing to call. Tomorrow morning a
:11:55. > :11:56.number of showers to start on the West Coast, through the Hebrides,
:11:57. > :12:03.but most of the mainland starting dry and bright. Temperatures there
:12:04. > :12:06.at eight in the morning. Showers in the Inverness area, far north-east,
:12:07. > :12:15.north-west and Northern Isles. I please from the north-west. Through
:12:16. > :12:19.their course of Wednesday showers in the West tend to fizzle and feed
