be northern ireland, you need to be prepared for disruption on the railways. that has been a real problem for airline passengers and, my goodness, the sort of disruption we saw yesterday, i don't think we have seen for example a domestic flight going from edinburgh in scotland to bristol in the west of england diverting to paris. the big problem for lots of the passengers on this easyjet flight was they didn't have any passports, they thought they were flying within the uk, therefore they had to sleep in the transit lounge overnight and they are trying to get back to the uk today. we have many other people, tens of thousands of people out of position and there are more flight cancellations today, i'm afraid. still a lot of disruptions across the country. what is the advice for passengers who have to venture out.

things are getting better. it still feels pretty breezy here in the city of london but it is actually getting better nationwide. of course, check in advance and drivers are being warned to take extra care. if you're travelling by ferry, and things are quite lively in the channel between england and france, but ferries are going more or less on time. in scotland, a large numbers of the ferries have been cancelled. wherever you are going, it bears repetition just check that you can complete your journey. repetition just check that you can complete yourjourney. yesterday, lots of people whether they were flying or going by plane, couldn't get where they needed to be and there are still many thousands of people, particularly in dublin, who are trying to figure out what to do because i think dublin was the worst hit city of all. because i think dublin was the worst hit city of all-— hit city of all. simon, thank you for that update. _ simon, thank you for that update. for a broader look at the recent

look to be quite as strong as storm isha, which is probably a relief to everybody, but thinking about the rainfall there will be falling on ground where we have had a lot of rain already, from storm isha but also from past storms, so if we are getting rain on ground that is already saturated and the rivers are already saturated and the rivers are already high, there is the potential for more flooding. hour already high, there is the potential for more flooding.— for more flooding. how could our scientist getting _ for more flooding. how could our scientist getting at _ for more flooding. how could our scientist getting at predicting - for more flooding. how could ourj scientist getting at predicting the storms and perhaps then limiting the impact that they have?— impact that they have? forecasting is improving _ impact that they have? forecasting is improving all— impact that they have? forecasting is improving all the _ impact that they have? forecasting is improving all the time. - impact that they have? forecasting is improving all the time. storm i is improving all the time. storm isha was actually named by the met office on friday, so we had a couple of days warning that it was going to arrive. sometimes we get longer warnings, sometime shorter. that depends on the type of storm that we get. the warnings are pretty good nowadays. the more warnings that we gets, the more people are aware that

the storms are coming, the more we can mitigate against them, plan different travel or not to travel. nowadays the forecasts are very good. nowadays the forecasts are very aood. ., , , ., nowadays the forecasts are very aood. ., , ., good. professor, the next question for a lot of— good. professor, the next question for a lot of years _ good. professor, the next question for a lot of years is _ good. professor, the next question for a lot of years is often _ good. professor, the next question for a lot of years is often how- good. professor, the next question for a lot of years is often how does| for a lot of years is often how does this year compared to previous years? also with the concerns about global warming and —— global warming and climate change, what would you say about those issues? the number of storms that _ say about those issues? the number of storms that we _ say about those issues? the number of storms that we get _ say about those issues? the number of storms that we get each - say about those issues? the number of storms that we get each year - of storms that we get each year varies hugely. this year we are already up to the]. the previous storm year, that was 2022—23, we only got two storms named. so it varies wildly. the number of storms that we get depends on things going on elsewhere in the globe and there is the reason we are not surprised that we have more storms this year than last year. in terms of going

forward with climate change, it is quite difficult to predict how the number of storms are predicting the future because it doesn'tjust depend on the global surface temperature, but there is evidence, some evidence to suggest that we might get more storms hitting us in the uk in the future. there are likely to contain more rainfall and it is possible we might get them more cluster, so one after another, which has the potential to cause more impact. which has the potential to cause more impact-— which has the potential to cause more imact. ., ~' ., ., more impact. thank you for “oining us here on bscfi more impact. thank you for “oining us here on bbc news. h the tories seem set on sabotaging civil society to save their own skins. they've got themselves so tangled up in culture wars of their own making that instead of working with royal national lifeboat institution — an organisation the late queen was patron of for 70 years — to find real solutions to stop the small boats, their rhetoric has helped demonise them. instead of working with

the national trust so more people can learn about and celebrate the culture and our history, they've managed to demean their work in its desperation to cling onto power at all costs. the labour leader, sir keir starmer, there accusing the conservative party of trying to find "woke agendas" in britain's civic institutions so that the party can then attack them. speaking at a conference in london, sir keir said the conservatives were waging a war on "the proud spirit of service in this country". well, rishi sunak has responded to sir keir starmer�*s comments. it does sound to me like a distraction from the fact that keir starmer, who's been leader of the opposition for four years, can't actually say what he would do differently to run this country. that's because he doesn't have a plan. can't say how he'd bring the number of small boat arrivals down, can't say how he would fund his £28 billion green spending spree, which just means higher taxes.

and the contrast is clear. our plan is working. the boat numbers are coming down. the longest waits in the nhs have been virtually eliminated and this month we're cutting people's taxes. so look, if we stick with the plan, we can build a brighterfuture. the alternative is just to go back to square one with keir starmer. he doesn't have a plan and he can't tell you what he would do differently. schools in urgent need of repair have told bbc panorama they are struggling to keep children warm in buildings that are "not fit for purpose". in one primary school temperatures are so low that children keep gloves and coats on during some lessons. in 2023, a report found about 700,000 children were having to learn in a school that "needs major rebuilding or refurbishment". the department for education says pupil and staff safety is " pa ramount". we are joined by steve marsland, the headteacher of russell scott school in tameside. his school is in a bad state, despite a £3 million refurbishment by the construction

company carillion in 2015. steve, what is the current situation in your school? the current situation is exactly what i was in 2015, nothing has happened top —— promise two years ago by the secretary of state for education that the school would be urgently rebuilt, but we are still here and still waiting.— urgently rebuilt, but we are still here and still waiting. what kind of an im act here and still waiting. what kind of an impact does _ here and still waiting. what kind of an impact does the _ here and still waiting. what kind of an impact does the situation - here and still waiting. what kind of an impact does the situation have l here and still waiting. what kind of i an impact does the situation have on your students? an impact does the situation have on yourstudents? i an impact does the situation have on your students? i was reading a report from our bbc panorama colleagues that you have to go out with plastic bags to collect water leaking through the roof when it reigns. what impact does it have in your community? that reigns. what impact does it have in your community?— reigns. what impact does it have in your community? that is the least of our problems- _ your community? that is the least of our problems. we _ your community? that is the least of our problems. we have _ your community? that is the least of our problems. we have had -

we prepare for the next named storm that will be with us on tuesday, storm jocelyn. of course, we're still dealing with the impact from isha today. gusts of wind across the central belt last night got to 70 to 80mph quite widely, with higher wind gusts elsewhere, of course. it does stay windy for the rest of the afternoon with some sunshine, but also some blustery showers. if we just take a look at the forecast map, you can see the isobars, a tight squeeze on those. it does stay windy for the rest of the day. still gusts of wind a0 to 50mph quite widely, higher towards irish sea coasts. the winds easing down a little across shetland. there will be blustery showers, most frequent towards the north and the west, but wintry over the hills of scotland. cooler feeling air too — eight to 11 degrees celsius. as we head through this evening and overnight, a quieter looking picture as a brief ridge of high pressure keeps us a little more settled. it will feel quite chilly out towards eastern areas, perhaps even a touch of ice across eastern scotland — lows here of two or three degrees celsius. but we start to see cloud and rain edge in from the south and the west

as we head into tomorrow morning. that sets the scene for storm jocelyne. that will be with us on tuesday. again, damaging gusts of wind with trees and structures already weakened from storm isha. it's taking the same sort of track. this deep area of low pressure swings northwards and eastwards just to the north of scotland. it's across western areas of scotland and towards the north of scotland where we could see gusts of wind of up to 75 to 80mph as we head through tuesday. widely gusts of wind of 45 to 50mph, higher than that towards exposed coastal areas. most of the rain will be towards the north and the west, but some more heavy rain swings in eastwards further south through the day. some very mild feeling air too. but the storm clears. by the time we get to wednesday we are drawing more of a north—westerly wind and this will usher in some slightly cooler feeling air again. it's a much quieter looking day of weather on wednesday, with some showers again across north—western areas of scotland, perhaps across parts of wales, but also some sunshine. many of us should stay dry.

still rather blustery, though. we look out towards the west again on thursday as there will be more weather fronts pushing eastwards. a quieter day of weather again on friday with some sunshine. do keep an eye on the forecast. bye— bye. live from london. this is bbc news.

families of israeli hostages storm the knesset in protest at the government's failure to bring their loved ones home. storm isha has swept across the uk, leaving at least two dead — and thousands without power. india's prime minister has inaugurated a hindu temple on a disputed site — where a mosque was torn down three decades ago. hello, i m maryam moshiri, welcome to bbc news now. families of israeli hostages — who are still being held in gaza — have broken through security and stormed a finance meeting in the israeli parliament, the knesset. they were protesting that the finance committee was meeting to deliberate while their children were still in captivity. they are demanding more action from the government to secure the release of their relatives.
