good morning, welcome to breakfast with sally nugent and jon kay. our headlines today. the row between business secretary kemi badenoch and the post office chair she sacked deepens. she accuses him of made—up anecdotes which he denies. the united states drafts a un security council resolution. for the first time, it calls for a temporary ceasefire in gaza. the family of alexei navalny, the putin critic who died in a russian prison, say they've been told his body won't be released for two weeks. good morning. ten hospitality venues might be closing every day but we

meet the men bucking the trend by baking spuds. in sport. almost 50 years in football management, roy hodgson leaves crystal palace. his replacement, oliver glasner who watched palace draw with everton. can he save their season? two minutes 40, i was technically dead for. i've been catching up with luton town's tom lockyer after he suffered a cardiac arrest on the pitch and how a new arrival may prove the perfect distraction as he takes a break from the game. good morning. today we have got a band of rain pushing south and east. on either side, bright or sunny spells and a few showers and it is going to be another mile today for the time of year. all of the details later. it's tuesday 20th february. a row has deepened between the business secretary,

kemi badenoch, and the former post office chair, henry staunton, after he claimed he'd been told to stall compensation payments to victims of the horizon it scandal. ms badenoch, who sacked mr staunton last month, said the claims were completely false, but last night he said he's standing by his statements. aruna iyengar has the latest. it's another installment in the post office drama, this time starring henry staunton, the recently sacked chairman, and kemi badenoch, the business secretary. here he was being questioned by mps. he became chair of the post office only at the end of 2022, but was sacked by ms badenoch last month in the aftermath of the horizon scandal. he's not going down without a fight. he says ms badenoch told him someone had to take the rap for the post office scandal. this weekend he gave an interview saying...

yesterday kemi badenoch hit back hard. i would hope that most people reading the interview in yesterday's sunday times would see it for what it was, a blatant attempt to seek revenge following dismissal. and there was a follow—up punch from the business secretary. i should also inform the house that while he was in post, a formal investigation was launched into allegations made regarding mr staunton�*s conduct. this included serious matters such as bullying. the former chairman was floored. a statement released last night on his behalf said...

post office sub—postmasters and sub—postmistresses were wrongly prosecuted between 1999 and 2015 after a faulty computer system horizon made it look like money was missing from their accounts. they want to know why so many still haven't been compensated. part of what mr staunton says kind of rings true, is that why they extended the deadline? you know, yeah, but at the end of the day, they're still not paying the postmasters, you know, they can shout at each other all they like, but they've still not, they're still not paying people. there could be a few more rounds to go. henry staunton is being asked to appear before mps next week. aruna iyengar, bbc news. our chief political correspondent henry zeffman joins us now. once again the post office scandal at the top of the news agenda.

henry, i cannot really see where this is going. it seems like both sides are completely stuck on this. it might sound obvious but i think it is worth stressing how unusual it is for a government minister to be at the dispatch box of the house of commons loudly rebutting assertions made by a city of london bigwig. this isn't normal politics. this has gone from zero to 100 in terms of a bit of public row in days. kemi badenoch would say it is henry staunton was my fault, she accused him in the house of commons of pursuing a blatant attempt to seek revenge for her having sacked him. i think as the labour party pointed out yesterday, we are stuck in a position where you have two irreconcilable accounts, only one of them can be true. and i think in terms of where this row will go, the

question is, how each side tries to prove it's true. i think perhaps the most important element of this sprawling, increasingly sprawling dispute is this claim that henry staunton was told by a senior civil servant, unnamed civil servant, to stall on compensation. he says he made a file note of that at the time, he cannot access that because he does not have access to his post office systems but he believes the post office could identify that. will that come out, will henry staunton in the civil servant? perhaps that might come at the select committee that he is appearing at next week and where is the exoneration legislation? that is all of the questions that will be asked at this row plays out. staying with the post office, the bbc has learned that david cameron's government knew

the post office had ditched a secret investigation that might have helped wrongly accused postmasters prove their innocence. the 2016 investigation trawled 17 years of records to find out how often, and why, cash accounts on the horizon it system had been tampered with remotely. it was stopped after postmasters began legal action. we'll be looking at this in detail later in the programme and speaking with former subpostmistress janet skinner. she was wrongly convicted and jailed for several months over the horizon scandal in the post office. let's get more news now. the united states has proposed a un security council draft resolution calling for a temporary ceasefire in gaza while warning against a major ground offensive into rafah. our correspondentjenny hill joins us from jerusalem. what more can you tell us? in the last 24 hours _

what more can you tell us? in the last 24 hours we _ what more can you tell us? in the last 24 hours we have _ what more can you tell us? in the last 24 hours we have really - what more can you tell us? in the last 24 hours we have really seen | what more can you tell us? in the i last 24 hours we have really seen an intensification of international efforts to try to dissuade israel from its planned course of action in rafah. as you know yesterday israel said that if hamas does not return all of its hostages within three weeks it will go ahead with plans for a major ground offensive in the city, where well over1 million displaced civilians are sheltering with as aid agencies put it very few safe places to go. this is an interesting shift in the us policy towards israel. israel is probably counting the us as its closest ally at this stage. the us draft resolution warns against that offensive, saying that it would cause further harm to civilians and further displacement into neighbouring countries, by which it means egypt, but also that it would itjeopardise peace and security in the whole region. we learned this morning the us will reportedly send its senior middle east adviser to

the region expected to hold talks in egypt and israel with benjamin netanyahu, the israeli prime minister, at some point this week. we also saw in the last 24 hours all but one of the eu's member states putting together a joint statement. they are also warning against the ground offensive in rafah and calling from an immediate humanitarian pause. international concern about the human cost of israel's military operation in gaza is growing, has been growing in recent days and weeks and only seems to continue to intensify. israel for its part has been insistent that it needs to continue with that operation, needs to go into rafah city where benjamin netanyahu says there are battalions of hamas fighters still at large and he wants those israeli hostages back. but as all of this is discussed and tussled over and argued about, there are more than1 million over and argued about, there are more than 1 million civilians sitting in rafah city, watching and waiting in considerable anxiety.

thank you very much indeed. the family of alexei navalny say his body won't be released for two weeks. the death of the russian opposition leader in prison was announced last week and his widow has since accused authorities of hiding the body. our eastern europe correspondent sarah rainsford joins us now. sarah, what is the latest information that you have? well, the famil of information that you have? well, the family of alexi _ information that you have? well, the family of alexi novelli _ information that you have? well, the family of alexi novelli are _ information that you have? well, the family of alexi novelli are saying - family of alexi novelli are saying that they have been told by the authority —— alexi navalny have been told that the investigation is being extended and some kind of chemical tests are being done in the body will not be released for a fortnight, and they have been expressing deep concern about these ongoing delays and deep suspicion. we had from uley and navalny who stepped very drastically into the political spotlight,

stepped very drastically into the politicalspotlight, —— stepped very drastically into the political spotlight, —— yulia navalnya, she released a video describing her immense grief at her loss, talking about being enveloped and enveloped by pain and grief. she said there was another half of her, as well as being broken, the other half of her would not allow herself to give up his cause. she has also expressed deep suspicion about what exactly has happened to him. she has blamed vladimir putin directly saying that he has killed alexei navalny in prison, he couldn't bear the competition, he killed him because he could not break him, she said. she has suggested the delay might be because there might be some kind of poison, some kind of new knowledge could have been used and so the traces needed to be removed

from his body before the body was rejected —— some kind of new novichok was used. putin has said absolutely nothing, bearing in mind that alexei navalny was his biggest challenge an opponent inside russia, vladimir putin has said nothing about him. three young children found dead at a house in bristol have been named by police. seven—year—old fares bash, his three—year—old sisterjoury, and nine—month—old baby mohammed were discovered by officers responding to a welfare call shortly after midnight on sunday. a 42—year—old woman has been arrested on suspicion of murder. our reporter fiona lamdin has the latest. this was the moment police were called to blaise walk, a quiet close in sea mills in bristol in the early hours of sunday morning, but it was too late. three children, fares, joury

and muhammad, couldn't be saved. they were already dead. the death of such young children is a great shock to the whole community, and this incident has had a profound and deep impact on all of us in the police. a 42—year—old woman from sudan was arrested and is in hospital under police guard. her injuries are not thought to be life threatening. they were very happy children, they were amazing, they were beautiful children. especially the the oldest child, fares, he is very smart, amazing, bubbly boy. he is just, he's very friendly, he's very curious about everything. his attitude is like an adult attitude, he's an amazing boy, he's so amazing. ijust, i can't believe that he's gone. we couldn't sleep. we're shocked, and everybodyjust kept phoning the others. as a community, we feel like the sky fall on us. and it's very sad.

the local playgroup was cancelled and the local school where the eldest fares went was also closed, giving this community, which is in huge shock, time to remember and reflect. we've kept our church building open all day today so that people can come in and express their grief. and they have done in great numbers, actually. avon and somerset has referred itself to the police watchdog, the iopc, as they had previous contact with the household. now the focus is on these young siblings found dead in their home. fiona lamdin, bbc news. the attorney general is set to announce whetherjudges should review the sentence of a man who stabbed three people to death in nottingham lastjune. barnaby webber and grace o'malley—kumar, both 19, were fatally stabbed along with 65—year—old ian coates. attorney general victoria prentis said she would consider

whether the indefinite hospital order given to valdo calocane was unduly lenient, after he was found guilty of three counts of manslaughter. julian assange, the founder of the whistle—blowing website wikileaks, is going to the high court today in what may be his final bid to avoid extradition to the united states. he's wanted in the us for leaking secret military files over a decade ago. the prime minister is set to announce a £220 million package to support farmers to increase productivity when he addresses the national farmers' union conference today. the nfu have welcomed the funding but say it is not new money. our environment correspondent jonah fisher has the latest. liz webster and her husband farm 350 cows in wiltshire. it's really tough. but all is not well. we're at the end of the line in this farm. our kids don't want to take it on because there's no money in it. liz says a combination of factors, including brexit, rising costs and unpredictable weather has left

farmers like her struggling to make ends meet. the supermarkets have got all the power and we have none. and that's really essentially the problem. are you still making a profit? is it still profitable to be a farmer? no. so why are you doing it? i don't know, because it's a way of life. farmers say they're facing pressure from all sides. costs have gone up and there are demands from both supermarkets and consumers that prices stay low. they say it all comes at a time when there's ever more bureaucracy and rules and demands on them to farm in a way that's kinder to the environment. it's against that backdrop that rishi sunak will speak at the national farmers' union annual conference this morning. there will be no new money, but he's expected to announce support for innovation

and technology and moves to make the contracts between farmers and supermarkets fairer and more transparent. progress towards self—sufficiency will now be monitored every year. i think the most significant thing is the annual reporting on food security. we've got 70 million people living on an island. and my big ask of all parties is, you know, who's going to have a plan for british food and who's going to take british food as seriously as we do energy. you see all parties talking about energy, green energy, what we're going to do. you've got labour talking about gb energy. we don't have the same emphasis or plan for food production. so this is a big step in the right direction. across europe, demonstrations by farmers are now an increasingly common sight. this was wales last week in a protest about new rules designed to help nature recover. the challenge farmers face is how to produce ever more food without damaging the environment

or putting up prices. jonah fisher, bbc news. researchers in australia have discovered the fastest—growing black hole ever recorded, which swallows material equal to the mass of our sun every day. it exists in a quasar, which is a swirling storm surrounding an active supermassive black hole at the centre of a galaxy. but you knew that, didn't you? of course. it's thought to be the brightest object in the universe, shining about 500 trillion times brighter than our sun. that's right! it's official, that is bright. i'm facing a black coffee hole is money because the canteen is not open for some reason. the staff are not here. not open for some reason. the staff are not here-— are not here. apologies if we are not completely — are not here. apologies if we are not completely quite _ are not here. apologies if we are not completely quite firing - are not here. apologies if we are

start for some parts of eastern england and the midlands but the cloud will build as the weather front thinks south and we are starting with murky conditions in the west. behind the weather front, for scotland and northern ireland, a return to sunshine, bright spells and showers, but some of the showers especially in scotland could be heavy with some thunder and hail. note to the temperatures, eight to 14 degrees, still mild, and a breezy day. this evening and overnight the rain it thinks south is a patchy feature, this is the weather front and it turns around and it will come back north and east taking another swipe at the uk. heaviest tonight will be in the north and west. the winds will strengthen through the irish sea and hanging on to clearer skies across the far north—east of scotland, this is where it will be coolest, mild for the rest of us. tomorrow rain pushes north and east, windierfor all tomorrow rain pushes north and east, windier for all of tomorrow rain pushes north and east, windierfor all of us tomorrow rain pushes north and east, windier for all of us tomorrow with gales in the final. behind this rate

we will see the return to wintry showers and then more rain in the south—west. i think i need another cup of tea, i mightjust go to the kitchen and make one. you lucky thin , kitchen and make one. you lucky thing. make _ kitchen and make one. you lucky thing. make us— kitchen and make one. you lucky thing, make us one! _ kitchen and make one. you lucky thing, make us one! do - kitchen and make one. you lucky thing, make us one! do you - kitchen and make one. you lucky - thing, make us one! do you deliver? definitel ! noisy, anti—social, and dangerous. not carol! that's how some residents living near street—racing hot spots are describing car meets. enthusiasts say these gatherings are good natured and a way of showcasing their vehicles but there's a history of high—speed driving and dangerous stunts on public roads. ben moore has the latest. it's not like dangerous, because everyone's just got a passion for cars, really. i think it's mainly the community aspect of it, really. you get a lot of attention, you get a bit of testosterone, innit? - it's late on a thursday night, and i'm at a car meet

on the outskirts of gatwick. in the 30 minutes we're here, we see speeding cars just inches from the crowds. do you ever worry about your safety? no, because i'm sort of in a crowd. these sorts of meets have people regulating them. and there are rules when it comes to the meets. if somebody tells us to leave, then we'll leave. we won't stay if we're not welcome. car meets are organised on social media quite openly. we've arrived at the location where the car meet was meant to be, but police are parked up at the side of the road, which means it's changed last minute. throughout the night, we might have four or five locations and we'll go across a span of maybe 50 miles. it can be frightening to some people, people with young children, people with animals. in fact, this dog doesn't like the noise.

this busy new build housing estate in sussex is also a car meet hotspot. it's a constant revving of loud, high performance engines. you can definitely hear it even over the television on or music playing. many residents won't speak on camera. they say they've been threatened by the car meets. they come in this bit here and then they drift around this roundabout. it's more about like if one of them lose control and go into like one of the houses. you can see on the road there's quite a few skid marks. sussex police has been called to more than 60 car meets in the last six months. it'sjust so dangerous, particularly if we've got cars that have been doing stunts, that have been doing drifting. whoa! and it has gone wrong badly. this is some footage of people being hit by out—of—control cars at meets.

that is the driver's responsibility. it's not even just about going to prison. it's about the impact on all those people's lives. it's not about the car, it's about the driver, innit. if you're a good enough driver, you won't crash. what do you say to people who say it's dangerous? if you're a good enough driver, you're confident, you know what you're doing, your car's road legal, then yeah, it's all good. the popularity of car meets means this is an issue that won't be parked any time soon. people always think it won't happen to them, but when it does, that's people's children, brothers, sisters that could potentially die or be seriously injured. ben moore, bbc news. let's have a look at today's papers. the telegraph leads with a headline stating that the united states is trying to stop israel's offensive in rafah in southern gaza. it says that presidentjoe biden is calling for a vote on a �*temporary ceasefire'.

the guardian features a plea to russians by alexei navalny�*s widow yulia, as she urges the international community to support her and her husband's work following his death. and the i says labour is set to commit to the triple lock on uk pensions in its election manifesto. the paper says that the policy currently increases pensioners' earnings by £800 a year although some economists believe that may become unaffordable as it raises the overall pension bill. there is an interesting health study in some _ there is an interesting health study in some of— there is an interesting health study in some of the papers this morning which _ in some of the papers this morning which is _ in some of the papers this morning which is good news for you and not such good — which is good news for you and not such good news for blokes. this has been done in _ such good news for blokes. this has been done in australian, _ such good news for blokes. this has been done in australian, half- such good news for blokes. this has been done in australian, half a - been done in australian, half a million people and if you and i do the same amount of exercise, you will benefit twice as much as i will. ~ ., i will benefit twice as much as i will- i will— will benefit twice as much as i will.- i will have - will benefit twice as much as i will.- i will have to - will benefit twice as much as i will.- i will have to do i

moving up into the brain now. so i don't think i'll be the same person in a year's time. when joe's bosses found out he was bisexual, it was the end of an eight year naval career. it was the end of an 18 year naval career. disgusting people such as myself, there was no place for us in the modern day armed forces. and as such, he would recommend to the admiral that they dismissed me. he spent the 30 years since campaigning, first to lift the ban on lgbt people in the military and later to get compensation for those affected. the government will say schemes like this take a while to put in. it's at a time when budgets are very tight. what would you say to that? the prime minister said they would make recompense and yet here we are six months later, still waiting for it. i'd like to get it settled now and then that is one part of my life over and done with. it was illegal to be gay

in the british military until the year 2000, when this group of veterans took their fight against the ban to the european court of human rights. in 2023, an independent review recommended 49 ways the government should make reparations, including this apology from the prime minister. the ban on lgbt people serving in our military until the year 2000 was an appalling failure of the british state. more than six months on and for lee, an raf veteran from liverpool, things aren't moving fast enough. today, on behalf of the british state, i apologise. when are the reparations forthcoming? what's happening? we know nothing at the moment. an apology isjust not good enough. when he firstjoined the royal air force in 1980, he was still discovering his sexuality. i didn't really know what i was. i had just turned 18. i thought i might be gay, maybe if ijoined the armed forces, it might get rid of it out of me. obviously, that's impossible, ridiculous thing to think.

flight lieutenant doyle, i'll never forget his name, lovely guy, he laid the charges out against me. he said, "what do you say to that?" and i said, "yes, sir, it's all true." he says, "i'd like you to go outside the room. you go outside the room now, take five minutes, have a little think, and then come back in and i'll ask you the same question again." well, isaid, "no, thanks, sir, i'm not going to change my mind." it was more important for you to be true to yourself? it was, yeah. it was the bestjob i've ever had, it really was brilliant, it was. and it was alljust taken away? snatched, yeah. i was going to say my fault, but no, it wasn't my fault. it doesn't mean you should lose yourjob for what you are. despite his dismissal, leigh looks back at his time in the forces fondly. but now his thoughts are turning to his ill health. do you have faith that you'll ever see any of these reparations? a little, a little, but not very much. i would like the government to take into consideration people who are terminally ill. now, because i'm at this age,

i've got a terminal illness, i'd be able to go on my last holiday, i'd be able to pay my bills off. tomorrow couldn't be quick enough for me. it should be done now. the government say they have already delivered a number of recommendations from the independent review and that they're working at pace to deliver the rest. forjoe, leigh, and hundreds of others, it can't come soon enough. josh parry, bbc news. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. hello, good morning from bbc london. i'm tolu adeoye. a 17—year—old boy has been arrested on suspicion of murder after another teenager was fatally stabbed in hoxton. the victim, also a boy aged 17, was attacked shortly before 11pm on saturday night in hackney road. police and ambulance staff were called but he died at the scene. he has not yet been

formally identified. the london fire brigade commissioner andy roe says he wants to see staff misconduct hearings held in public so improvements to workplace culture can be seen. an independent review found the lfb was found to be "institutionally misogynist and racist" in 2022. at a recent london assembly meeting the lfb commissioner said full details on staff dismissals could not be provided due to data protection rules — but said he would like there to be more transparency. traders shut out of their businesses when an east london market closed suddenly are calling for more support to help it reopen. market village in stratford centre closed six weeks ago when the company running it went into administration. newham council — and the leaseholder — unex — each say the power to reopen it is in the other�*s hands. we need to get back in there. we need to get back in. a lot of people's losing money. they're losing their livelihoods. it's causing a lot of anguish against people, which is not nice.

and a lot of the traders that have been here for over 20 years — to be able to start again now, it's going to be really hard. with just six months to go until the paris olympics, team gb has announced its first ever mini mascots. six children will get an opportunity to be part of team gb. and alice from loughton, a keen badminton player, is one of them. i feel really proud of myself. i'm excited to represent team gb. the biggest thing i hope to achieve being a mascot, is cheering them on and to inspire my friends to cheer them on with me. and so they win a whole lot of gold medals. let's take a look at the tubes now. there's are minor delays on the circle line and northern line. now, on to the weather with kawser. hello. good morning. well, it's a bright start initially, but today we're looking at a mostly

cloudy day and it will be mild and breezy as well throughout, but it should be largely dry. you can see some bright spells to start then, but that cloud coming in from the west during the day and, by the afternoon as well, staying mostly cloudy but dry and temperatures, well, reaching around 14 celsius. so it's staying mild for the time of year. as we head into the evening, though, maybe some patchy outbreaks of rain drifting in from the northwest. and then later in the night, we'll start to see a weather front arriving in, bringing with it some heavy outbreaks of rain and strengthening winds, too. and temperatures overnight dipping to around 6 or 7 celsius. it's a waving weather front that will continue to bring some outbreaks of rain and it does stay quite unsettled as we look ahead into thursday as well. and it is mild for the time being. but, as we look ahead, temperatures are gradually starting to drop back to around average for the time of year. there will be some drier weather for a time on friday before it becomes a bit more unsettled again by the weekend. i'll be back with another update in half an hour. bye— bye.

hello, this is breakfast with sally nugent and jon kay. the prime minister will outline a package of measures to support british farmers later today. speaking to the national farmers union in birmingham, he's expected to promise £220 million for agricultural technology. we're joined now by the nfu president minette batters. good president minette batters. morning to you. £220 n what good morning to you. £220 million. what is your reaction to that? there are substantive _ what is your reaction to that? there are substantive sums _ what is your reaction to that? there are substantive sums of _ what is your reaction to that? there are substantive sums of money i what is your reaction to that? ill” are substantive sums of money that are substantive sums of money that are being put towards various different themes and funding for agriculture. it is all part of the existing budget from when we left the european union. i think the words the prime minister is using is a definite step change. he is talking about food security being really important, sitting at the heart of what defra is doing. that is quite a change. we have been

asking all along for the environmental legislative targets and food production to be won in the same thing. it is welcome. d0 and food production to be won in the same thing. it is welcome.— same thing. it is welcome. do you mean this — same thing. it is welcome. do you mean this is _ same thing. it is welcome. do you mean this is old _ same thing. it is welcome. do you mean this is old money, _ same thing. it is welcome. do you mean this is old money, not i same thing. it is welcome. do you mean this is old money, not new. mean this is old money, not new money? it mean this is old money, not new mone ? , ., ., , mean this is old money, not new mone? f. , money? it is old money, effectively. it is the commitment _ money? it is old money, effectively. it is the commitment for _ money? it is old money, effectively. it is the commitment for the - money? it is old money, effectively. it is the commitment for the term i money? it is old money, effectively. it is the commitment for the term of this parliament. it is effectively a new business plan for agriculture. these monies have yet to be designated. it fits within the government's capability and responsibility to use these monies and invest them well. we responsibility to use these monies and invest them well.— responsibility to use these monies and invest them well. we have seen farmers protesting _ and invest them well. we have seen farmers protesting over— and invest them well. we have seen farmers protesting over the - and invest them well. we have seen farmers protesting over the last i farmers protesting over the last several days. will this money make them feel any better?— several days. will this money make them feel any better? obviously we are four nations, _ them feel any better? obviously we are four nations, one _ them feel any better? obviously we are four nations, one country. i them feel any better? obviously we are four nations, one country. we i are four nations, one country. we are four nations, one country. we are the farming union of england and wales. there is a lot of anger and frustration in wales about lack of certainty and a consultation appearing to come out as a done

deal. in england we have been on this transition for a long period of time. the first dutiful farmers is to produce food. what they want to see is a clear plan for food production. there are 70 million people on this island and it is very important we produce more british food. some things we had to be more efficient in. this is a compounding factors. you are seeing it playing out across europe as well. we have seen most — out across europe as well. we have seen most farmers _ out across europe as well. we have seen most farmers working - out across europe as well. we have seen most farmers working 11 i out across europe as well. we have| seen most farmers working 11 hours out across europe as well. we have i seen most farmers working 11 hours a day, more than 11 hours a day seven days a week and that has found to be detrimental to their mental health. how challenging a time is it at the moment for your members? it is a oint i moment for your members? it is a point i will — moment for your members? it is a point i will be _ moment for your members? it is a point i will be making _ moment for your members? it is a point i will be making in _ moment for your members? it is a point i will be making in my - moment for your members? it is a | point i will be making in my speech this morning. mental health is a really serious issue. in farming, you often work on your own for very

long hours in isolated circumstances. farming is 24/7. we have seen extreme weather events this year again. it can be tough. the importance of certainty and a plan is so essential. i have worked with three different prime ministers in 12 months. they have all been very different. we want a solid plan forfood production. these businesses know they are on. the anger in wales is primarily around taking land away. if the business was told you are going to lose 20% of your business, people would be extremely angry. that is what these farmers are feeling.— very much indeed. let's talk sport. the premier league carousel. at the heart of it, roy hodgson, a manager much admired in football and beyond. he was taken ill, training with crystal palace last week. there were

rumours he was about to be sacked but he has now agreed to step aside and they have moved ahead really quickly to replace him. he was sad to see crystal palace play everton last night. he has a big job on his hands with crystal palace hoping to avoid relegation this season. roy hodgson will be one of the longest serving managers in english football. it is all change. the 76—year—old standing down and that is likely to bring to an end to one of the longest managerial careers. his replacement oliver glasner was in the stands to watch palace take on everton last night. katie gornall reports. as roy hodgson left selhurst park last monday, his crystal palace career was on borrowed time. defeat to chelsea intensified reports he was set to be sacked, but then came complications and concern. on thursday, he fell ill at training and was taken to hospital. now, back at home, he released this statement.

i'm sure that roy wouldn't have liked it to have been now. maybe at the end of the season. but results do play a part in being a football manager. unfortunately, due to injuries, mainly, that palace haven't been able to put a full team out, roy has paid the price. for nearly five decades, hodgson's managerial career took him all over the world. he started with silverware in sweden before taking switzerland to the last 16 of the 94 world cup. the big clubs came calling — inter milan and later liverpool. in 2012 came his biggest role as england manager. he insisted it wasn't the impossiblejob — results suggested otherwise. commentary: iceland have turned it round to lead. i he later came home to crystal palace, the club he supported as a boy. in the end, it was a season too far. still, ahead of the everton match, he was remembered fondly. an honest, trustworthy, caring man and he can

be proud for what he's contributed towards our... towards palace, and towards football as a whole. hodgson's replacement, oliver glasner, was announced before kick—off and seated at goodison. for 66 minutes, the former eintracht frankfurt manager saw little to entertain him until the brilliance ofjordan ayew. everton have had their struggles on and off the pitch, but with minutes of normal time remaining, amadou onana came to the rescue. 1—1 it finished, as palace's new era began. so after a day of upheaval, crystal palace leave here with a valuable point, while everton have been lifted out of the relegation zone on goal difference. they'll need to improve if they're to stay out of danger, though, with the result of their appeal against a ten—point deduction looming. katie gornall, bbc news, liverpool. and everton have pushed for that decison to come as soon as possible, with the club still waiting on news of whether that appeal for breaching profit and sustainability rules has been succesful. manager sean dyche says it cant drag on.

i can't hide it forever. of course it looks different. you got ten points added back on. they're having a strong season in comparison to recent seasons, so... but we haven't. so therefore we're still waiting on news. we'd prefer it to be sooner now because it seems to be dragging a little bit, but we can't do anything about it, so we've just got to wait and see. ahead of manchester city's game with brentford tonight, their manager pep guardiola has apologised to footballer kalvin phillips for comments he made about him being "overweight." he made the remarks about the player, who is currently out on loan at west ham, when he returned from the qatar world cup at the end of 2022. i'm sorry. once in eight years is not bad. i'm so sorry. i apologise to him. i'm sorry. and he says he didn't speak to you about that at all. did you feel that?

sorry. he said that he didn't sort of clear the air with you over that. did you feel that when i spoke about that you spoke with him about it? yeah. before i said to say i spoke to him. right. and never, never before i said something here. i didn't speak with the teams, the players in that case. good news for british tennis players overnight. dan evans eased into the last 16 of the los cabos open in mexico with a straight—sets win over russian roman safiullin. and british number one cameron norrie started the defence of his rio open title with a routine straight sets win over bolivian hugo dellien in brazil, taking norriejust one hour and 21 minutes to seal victory. andy murray also in action, in qatar later this afternoon, hoping to win for the first time this year. ina year, in a year, potentially, he has said could be his last. no talk about the

r—word. do not talk about it! in december, the premier league stood still during a match between luton town and bournemouth when luton captain tom lockyer collapsed on the pitch. he'd suffered a cardiac arrest and was resuscitated by medics. only one in ten people survive a cardiac arrest out of hospital, so tom counts himself lucky. i sat down with him at home to find out how he's getting on. daddy's mug. aw! have you got a mummy�*s milk? we do somewhere, actually. what's it like getting ready to bring yourfirst baby home? having been through everything you've been through the last few months. yeah. i'm... obviously, i'm forever grateful. it's... realistically, i'm super lucky because if this didn't happen on a football pitch, you know, there's every chance that i wouldn't be here to be doing that. and the thought of that, you know, leaving my girlfriend to raise a child on her own is heartbreaking.

it's something i don't like to think about, to be honest. and i think that's why it's important that although this has happened to me, and obviously it's a horrible thing to have to go through. the bigger picture is i want more people to start learning cpr. and since it happened, how much have you been able to piece together of what was going on around you? obviously, my girlfriend was at the game and my dad was there. she was, like, looking at me at the time it happened because the ball was elsewhere and she's seen me go down and she said instantly she knew that it was serious and her friend, who she was with, said she let out like a massive scream that would live with her forever. my dad was there and he said he knew instantly that it was serious. i think you can tell by the players' reactions — they were straight over. our manager was on the pitch within 10 seconds and that's unheard of as well. everyone seemed to know, you know,

that this was serious and, yeah. 2 minutes 40 i was technically dead for so, yeah, without them people there, who, you know, who were incredible under the pressure. um... without them, you know, i wouldn't be here today. and, like we said, i wouldn't be lucky enough to be waiting for my little girl to come into the world. and what happened to you surgically? what have they done to protect you now? yeah. so i've got an icd implanted now. so it's common after one of these things happen and you make a recovery that you will get an icd. it's called an implanted cardiac device. it's basically a defib built into you. so i've got... it's just sat under here. nice little scar now. i'll show you. cool go on. let's see.

wow. nice little scar there. the defib sits in the back there. so that's there. that's there. you can feel it there. wow. it's like... um... and then there's a wire that runs across here and then up to the heart. wow. and then, should this ever happen again, i touch wood it doesn't but you won't need to wait for someone to come with the nearest defib. this should kick in itself and shock your heart back in. how does that feel? it took a while to get used to because it's a lot bigger than i thought it would be. but they do that because it has a big battery life. eight years, i think it has — so before it needs changing. so yeah, it took a while, but it doesn't affect my golf swing. i'm still rubbish, so i'm all right. what does rest and recovery look like, then? lego. sorry? yeah. yeah, i've built a 6,000—piece hogwarts castle... 0k. ..which was pretty cool. i'm a big harry potterfan,

so i really enjoyed doing that one. and then i was incredibly fortunate enough. my friend bought me a 5,000—piece disney castle, so i'm halfway through that one. wow. yeah. so that's pretty cool. the hard question now is, what does it mean for you and playing? it's too early to say. it really is. when something like this happens, there's so many tests and, you know, scans and all that that comes with it, that has to be done. so still in the mix of that. on one hand, i'm like, i'm eternally grateful that, you know, if i have to retire, you know, i'm so lucky i've got to play in the premier league — score in the premier league — represent my country. all these incredible things. and then on the other hand, i'm like, "oh, i'd love a little bit more." but then, you know, that balance. obviously, we'll never go against any medical advice, but it's far too early to say yet, and obviously there's bigger things on the horizon now

as well with the baby. and, you know, i'd have to speak to my family if i was ever considering returning. it's too early to say. my focus is on the baby coming now. brilliant to see him looking so well. the baby is due in the next few days. water recovery! i was amazed by the size of that device, like him. the battery lasts for eight years and gives him the ultimate confidence. lots of people have been in touch already which are going to talk about with the british heart foundation. think about where your nearest defibrillator is. in public buildings there will be one. if you are at home, where is the nearest one? that is something tom wants everyone to think about. good

was attacked shortly before 11pm on saturday in hackney road. police and ambulance staff were called but he died at the scene. he has not yet been formally identified. the london fire brigade commissioner andy roe says he wants to see staff misconduct hearings held in public so workplace culture improvements can be seen. an independent review in 2022 found the lfb was "institutionally misogynist and racist". at a recent london assembly meeting the commissioner said full details on staff dismissals could not be provided due to data protection rules but said he would like there to be more transparency in the future. traders shut out of their businesses when an east london market closed suddenly are calling for more support to help reopen it. market village in stratford centre closed six weeks ago when the company running it went into administration. newham council and the leaseholder unex each say the other has the power to reopen it.

we need to get back in there. we need to get back in. a lot of people's losing money. they're losing their livelihoods. it's causing a lot of anguish against people, which is not nice. and a lot of the traders that have been here for over 20 years — to be able to start again now, it's going to be really hard. with just six months to go until the paris olympics, team gb has announced its first ever mini mascots. six children have been picked. and alice from loughton, a keen badminton player, is one of them. i feel really proud of myself. i'm excited to represent team gb. the biggest thing i hope to achieve being a mascot, is cheering them on and to inspire my friends to cheer them on with me. and so they win a whole lot of gold medals. let's take a look at the tubes now. there's minor delays on the circle line. now onto the weather with kawser. hello, good morning. well, it's a bright start initially,

but today we're looking at a mostly cloudy day and it will be mild and breezy as well throughout, but it should be largely dry. you can see some bright spells to start then, but that cloud coming in from the west during the day and, by the afternoon as well, staying mostly cloudy but dry and temperatures, well, reaching around 14 celsius. so it's staying mild for the time of year. as we head into the evening, though, maybe some patchy outbreaks of rain drifting in from the northwest. and then later in the night, we'll start to see a weather front arriving in, bringing with it some heavy outbreaks of rain and strengthening winds, too. and temperatures overnight dipping to around 6 or 7 celsius. it's a waving weather front that will continue to bring some outbreaks of rain and it does stay quite unsettled as we look ahead into thursday as well. and it is mild for the time being. but, as we look ahead, temperatures are gradually starting to drop back to around average for the time of year. there will be some drier weather for a time on friday before it becomes a bit more unsettled again by the weekend. i'll be back with another

update in half an hour. good morning, welcome to breakfast with sally nugent and jon kay. our headlines today. the row between business secretary kemi badenoch and the post office chair she sacked deepens. she accuses him of made—up anecdotes which he denies. the united states drafts a un security council resolution. for the first time, it calls for a temporary ceasefire in gaza. the family of alexei navalny, the putin critic who died in a russian prison, say they've been told his body won't be released for two weeks. in sport. wigan warriors have their eyes on more rugby league glory this weekend. the super league champions take on australian side penrith panthers looking to win the world club challenge. we'll meet the four dogs and their owners in the running for this year's hero dog award.

good morning. today is going to be mild but also breezy, a band of rain pushing south and eastwards, and behind it some heavy showers potentially thundery in scotland. temperatures are going to change in the next few days but i will have more on that later in the programme. it's tuesday the 20th february. a row has deepened between the business secretary, kemi badenoch, and the former post office chair, henry staunton, after he claimed he'd been told to stall compensation payments to victims of the horizon it scandal. ms badenoch, who sacked mr staunton last month, said the claims were completely false, but last night he said he's standing by his statements. aruna iyengar has the latest. it's another installment in the post office drama, this time starring henry staunton, the recently sacked chairman, and kemi badenoch, the business secretary. here he was being questioned by mps.

he became chair of the post office only at the end of 2022, but was sacked by ms badenoch last month in the aftermath of the horizon scandal. he's not going down without a fight. he says ms badenoch told him someone had to take the rap for the post office scandal. this weekend he gave an interview saying... yesterday kemi badenoch hit back hard. i would hope that most people reading the interview in yesterday's sunday times would see it for what it was, a blatant attempt to seek revenge following dismissal. and there was a follow—up punch from the business secretary. i should also inform the house that while he was in post, a formal investigation was launched

into allegations made regarding mr staunton's conduct. this included serious matters such as bullying. the former chairman was floored. a statement released last night on his behalf said... post office sub—postmasters and sub—postmistresses were wrongly prosecuted between 1999 and 2015 after a faulty computer system horizon made it look like money was missing from their accounts. they want to know why so many still haven't been compensated. part of what mr staunton says kind of rings true, is that why

they extended the deadline? you know, yeah, but at the end of the day, they're still not paying the postmasters, you know, they can shout at each other all they like, but they've still not, they're still not paying people. there could be a few more rounds to go. henry staunton is being asked to appear before mps next week. aruna iyengar, bbc news. so, where is all this heading? our chief political correspondent henry zeffman joins us now. henry, he says, she says, what next? what an unusual state of affairs, jon. it probably sounds obvious but it is worth stressing, it's not normal for a it is worth stressing, it's not normalfor a government it is worth stressing, it's not normal for a government minister to stand at the dispatch box denouncing in highly personal terms a city bigwig who has been involved in some of this country's biggest companies. kemi badenoch would point out, it's not exactly normal for a departing chairman of the post office to make

such grave allegations against the government, especially when they are ones that the government thinks are completely untrue. we are now stuck in a situation where you have two completely irreconcilable accounts. the government and kemi badenoch on one hand and henry staunton on the other. the question for the coming days, given how vociferously kemi badenoch denied henry staunton's claimed yesterday, is how he can back them up if he has anything to do so. on the specific claim on stalling compensation payments, he said he made a file note at the time that he had been told that but it is on a post office server which he has no access to having been sacked. there might be some pressure on the post office to look for that file note. even if they find it, there is still to an extent henry staunton's word against a senior civil servant's word. we don't know who that senior civil servant is. perhaps he will come under select committee pressure, henry staunton,

to give that name. and underlying all of this, the house of commons got very excited about the scandal earlier this year, the government said it would exonerate the sub—postmaster is, where is the legislation? that is another question that the government will have to answer soon, i think. thank ou ve have to answer soon, i think. thank you very much _ have to answer soon, i think. thank you very much indeed. _ have to answer soon, i think. thank you very much indeed. later- have to answer soon, i think. thank you very much indeed. later we i have to answer soon, i think. thank you very much indeed. later we will speak to janet skinner, she has been on the programme before, the former sub—postmistress he was jailed for nine months over a wrongful conviction over the horizon scandal, what will she make of this story which is at the top of the agenda again? let's get the rest of the news with sally. the united states has proposed a un security council draft resolution calling for a temporary ceasefire in gaza while warning against a major ground offensive into rafah. our correspondentjenny hill joins us from jerusalem. jenny, what can you tell us? the us is warnin: jenny, what can you tell us? the us is warning that _ jenny, what can you tell us? the us is warning that that _

jenny, what can you tell us? the us is warning that that ground - is warning that that ground offensive in rafah would cause more harm to displaced civilians and indeed because their further displacement possibly into neighbouring countries, by which it referring to egypt. it also warns any ground offensive would threaten the peace and security of the region. the us is israel's closest ally and until recently has avoided calls for a ceasefire butjoe biden's administration seems to be starting to run out of patience with israel's by minister benjamin netanyahu has remained defiant over the human cost of the operation in gaza launched in response to the october seven attacks. the us is concerned about plans hit you push on with that military offensive in the southern city of rafah. yesterday the israeli government told hamas that if it did not give up told hamas that if it did not give up all of its israeli hostages that then that ground offensive will go ahead. benjamin netanyahu and he

needs to as he puts it to finish the job in rafah where he says there are still battalions of hamas fighters. there are 1.5 million displaced palestinian citizens sheltering there as well and that is causing real concern on an international level. in the last 24 hours we saw all but one eu member state in a joint statement urging an immediate pause, humanitarian pause in fighting and it is reported this morning that the us will send its top middle east advisor for talks morning that the us will send its top middle east advisorfor talks in egypt and israel later this week. jenny, thank you very much. the family of alexei navalny say his body won't be released for two weeks. the death of the russian opposition leader in prison was announced last week and his widow has since accused authorities of hiding the body. our eastern europe correspondent sarah rainsford joins us now. sarah, what is the latest? well,

these are increasingly _ sarah, what is the latest? well, these are increasingly loud i sarah, what is the latest? -ii these are increasingly loud demands now from alexei navalny�*s family for the body of the former opposition politician to be released from a morgue where it is believed he is being kept. and that's happening as the investigation has been extended, the investigation has been extended, the authorities saying they now need to check for some kind of chemical tests on alexei navalny�*s body and they will not release the body for another couple of weeks. there is an awful lot of suspicion amongst supporters, politicians, and also the family of alexei navalny over why there is such a long delay in getting access to his body. they want to be able at the very least to be able to look at his body to check for any kind of signs of possible trauma and also presumably to be able to carry out if possible some of their own tests but they also want his body so that they can bury him. it was that kind of sense of grief and mourning that was a very

palpable and strong which was released by his widow at yulia navalnaya yesterday who really stepped into the politicalfray navalnaya yesterday who really stepped into the political fray for the first time, she has always been a great supporter of alexei navalny but always pretty much in the shadows until now. she has come out with a very strident statement saying that she is grieving, enveloped by pain, she said, but she is also furious and using that fury to call now on russians to stand beside her as she attempts to continue alexei navalny�*s political course. she described that as his fight for a beautiful russia of the future and she said that she needed to do work to realise that because otherwise alexei navalny�*s death will have been in vain. she said that the vladimir putin, she accused him directly killing alexei navalny and talked about an attempt to hide his body as an attempt to hide traces of novichok, it was the 20 20 attempted assassination on alexei

navalny where novichok was used but the kremlin so far saying absolutely nothing. three young children found dead at a house in bristol have been named by police. seven—year—old fares bash, his three—year—old sisterjoury, and nine—month—old baby mohammed were discovered by officers responding to a welfare call shortly after midnight on sunday. a 42—year—old woman has been arrested on suspicion of murder. our reporter fiona lamdin has the latest. this was the moment police were called to blaise walk, a quiet close in sea mills in bristol in the early hours of sunday morning, but it was too late. three children, fares, joury and mohammad, couldn't be saved. they were already dead. the death of such young children is a great shock to the whole community, and this incident has had a profound and deep impact on all of us in the police. a 42—year—old woman from sudan was arrested and is in hospital

under police guard. her injuries are not thought to be life threatening. they were very happy children, they were amazing, they were beautiful children. especially the oldest child, fares, he is very smart, amazing, bubbly boy. he is just, he's very friendly, he's very curious about everything. his attitude is like an adult attitude, he's an amazing boy, he's so amazing. ijust, i can't believe that he's gone. we couldn't sleep. we're shocked, and everybodyjust kept phoning the others. as a community, we feel like the sky fall on us. and it's very sad. the local playgroup was cancelled and the local school where the eldest fares went was also closed, giving this community, which is in huge shock, time to remember and reflect. we've kept our church building open all day today so that people can come in and express their grief.

and they have done in great numbers, actually. avon and somerset has referred itself to the police watchdog, the iopc, as they had previous contact with the household. now the focus is on these young siblings found dead in their home. fiona lamdin, bbc news. the attorney general is set to announce whetherjudges should review the sentence of a man who stabbed three people to death in nottingham lastjune. valdo calocane killed 19—year—olds barnaby webber and grace o'malley—kumar and 65—year—old ian coates. attorney general victoria prentis said she would consider whether the indefinite hospital order given to calocane was unduly lenient, after he was found guilty of three counts of manslaughter. houthis in yemen claim a british ship which was attacked by the group in the red sea on sunday has sunk. the claim hasn't been verified, but the uk government have said the rubymar vessel had been abandoned, and all 24

south—west eventually, the cloud building in the south—east but here is where we will have the highest temperatures. 13 or 14, in the north, eight to 13. this evening and overnight to the weather front bringing the rain continues south as a week feature, you can see it curls around and it is going to move back northwards and eastwards bringing some heavy rain in doing so. winds will pick up through the irish sea touching gale force and under clearer skies across north—east scotland it will be a chilly night. tomorrow the rain continues to push north and east, the heaviest will be in the north and west, with it we will have strong winds, gusting widely 40 miles an hour but with gales across the finals of the country. again behind it there will be dry weather, still mild, but you can see how this curl comes back into the south—west so some more heavy rain for you. on thursday temperatures are slipping a bit closer to where we would expect them to be at this stage in february.

thank you. the bbc has learned that david cameron's government knew the post office had ditched a secret investigation that might have helped wrongly accused postmasters prove their innocence. the 2016 investigation trawled 17 years of records to find out how often, and why, cash accounts on the horizon it system had been tampered with remotely. our economics correspondent, andy verity, has the story. fake digital signatures, suppressed internal reviews and a secret investigation. evidence withheld from court but revealed in confidential documents released through freedom of information and analysed by the bbc. they prove the post office learned ten years ago from an internal review called project zebra that sub—postmasters cash accounts could be fiddled with remotely without their knowledge, a fact that might have undone all their convictions had the post office admitted it.

a top qc, jonathan swift, said the project zebra findings contradicted years of denials and told post office chair tim parker in february 2016 it must be investigated. we found out that parker hired the auditors deloitte to trawl through every transaction on the post office's horizon system going back to 1999 to work out how often remote fiddling had happened and why. ministers in david cameron's government knew about the investigation, including then business secretary sajid javid and baroness lucy neville—rolfe. but then injune, after sub—postmasters started legal action, its work was suddenly stopped. it's like the whole world crashed on your head, that's all. the government took my house. they made me bankrupt. senopathy narenthiran, or naren to his friends, was given a three yearjail sentence based on evidence from the horizon system, and his conviction still hasn't been quashed. since i've been in and out, when i came out, the relationship between our family started going down the drain and i felt it.

if deloitte's investigation into horizon had been completed, it might have helped falsely accused sub—postmasters like him to prove something crucial that the evidence used to jail them, horizon's data on the cash in their branch accounts, couldn't be relied on. i came to ramsgate on the kent coast to show naren what i discovered. naren, hi. hi, andy. very nice to meet you. nice to see you. thank you. he says the police couldn't find any evidence of theft apart from the false horizon data. you were trying to tell them it might be the computer? computer, yes. somebody is remotely accessing into the computer and doing it. but they said no, the post office will never do such a thing. i showed naren the project zebra findings from a briefing for the post office board. they discovered that fujitsu could tinker with your computer using a fake key. that's right, yes. then i showed the report where the lawyers recommended the post office must investigate how

often it happened back to 1999. so do you think they did that work? do you think they followed the qc's recommendations? what would be your guess? oh, if they would have followed it then i wouldn't have been inside the person. well, here's the thing. they did follow the recommendations. they did? they did. deloitte spent three months, we've discovered, going back through transactions. so in march, they say we're doing the work. deloitte has been appointed. in april you launched your litigation and injune they stopped deloitte completing the work. and by knowing all this, why do we waste our time in the prison and separate from the family? i don't know. anyway... sorry. it's very hard on your own sitting in a room watching the tv or laptop. that's not life, isn't it? i'm 69 years old. too old to go through

all these things. never mind. what's a little unsettling is that these documents show the post office's own auditors were telling them in 2014 that it was possible for fujitsu to fiddle remotely with sub—postmasters' accounts. in 2016 their lawyers told them they must investigate. they paid deloitte to do that and told the government. but then when they found out sub—postmasters were suing, they did that investigation and swept it under the carpet. they ditched that investigation and swept it under the carpet. on the face of it, it discloses a conspiracy by the post office to pervert the course ofjustice. the important feature of all of this is that in 2014 it appears that the post office board was alive to the true position, and yet the post office board was responsible for maintaining and advancing the post office's defence to the claim in 2019. that was false. a spokesperson for the post office said it was the public inquiry�*s role to reach conclusions on what happened.

sajid javid was told the investigation was to look into suggestions branch accounts might have been remotely altered, not that lawyers have found they could be, as was baroness neville—rolfe, who was also told about the investigation being stopped. she said she looked forward to explaining her involvement at the inquiry. tim parker said through his lawyers he sought and acted upon legal advice he was given and the documents don't show evidence that david cameron was told about the investigation. the truth about what the post office hid from the courts and what it did tell the government is now being exposed to the light. but naren ended up with just £19,000 in compensation, less than a third of the cash he lost due to horizon. he may get more, but alone and still officially branded a criminal, no amount of money could make up for the undeserved shame he and his family have wrongly been made to feel. never mind. andy verity, bbc news, ramsgate. we are joined now byjanet skinner,

a former sub—postmistress who was wrongly convicted and jailed for nine months. we have spoken to janet before. here we are again, another part of this scandal, what you make of what you have just heard? scandal, what you make of what you havejust heard? it’s scandal, what you make of what you have just heard?— have just heard? it's another scandal within _ have just heard? it's another scandal within a _ have just heard? it's another scandal within a scandal. i have just heard? it's another. scandal within a scandal. every other week, there is more to this scandal. it'sjust rolling. share other week, there is more to this scandal. it'sjust rolling.- scandal. it's 'ust rolling. are you surrised scandal. it's 'ust rolling. are you surprised by— scandal. it'sjust rolling. are you surprised by the _ scandal. it'sjust rolling. are you surprised by the latest? - scandal. it'sjust rolling. are you surprised by the latest? not i scandal. it'sjust rolling. are you i surprised by the latest? not really, no, surprised by the latest? not really, no. nothing — surprised by the latest? not really, no, nothing surprises _ surprised by the latest? not really, no, nothing surprises me _ surprised by the latest? not really, no, nothing surprises me any i surprised by the latest? not really, no, nothing surprises me any more j no, nothing surprises me any more with this. i think what they don't understand now is, because of all these freedom of information policy is that you have, or that information is out there anyway but my legal team was already looking into the report.— into the report. there is an inquiry under way — into the report. there is an inquiry under way as _ into the report. there is an inquiry under way as well, _ into the report. there is an inquiry under way as well, that _ into the report. there is an inquiry under way as well, that sits - into the report. there is an inquiry under way as well, that sits again | under way as well, that sits again next month. do you feel as someone who has been through it and was

to see staff misconduct hearings held in public so workplace culture improvements can be seen. an independent review in 2022 found the lfb was "institutionally misogynist and racist." at a recent london assembly meeting the commissioner said full details on staff dismissals could not be provided due to data protection rules — but said he would like there to be more transparency in the future. traders shut out of their businesses when an east london market closed suddenly are calling for more support to help reopen it. market village in stratford centre closed six weeks ago when the company running it went into administration. newham council — and the leaseholder — unex — each say the other has the power to reopen it. we need to get back in there. we need to get back in. a lot of people's losing money. they're losing their livelihoods. it's causing a lot of anguish against people, which is not nice. and a lot of the traders that have been here for over 20 years — to be able to start again now,

it's going to be really hard. with just six months to go until the paris olympics, team gb has announced its first ever mini mascots. six children have been picked. and alice from loughton, a keen badminton player, is one of them. i feel really proud of myself. i'm excited to represent team gb. the biggest thing i hope to achieve being a mini mascot, is cheering them on and to inspire my friends to cheer them on with me. and so they win a whole lot of gold medals. there are minor delays on the circle line. now on to the weather with kawser. hello. good morning. well, it's a bright start initially, but today we're looking at a mostly cloudy day and it will be mild and breezy as well throughout, but it should be largely dry.

you can see some bright spells to start then, but that cloud coming in from the west during the day and, by the afternoon as well, staying mostly cloudy but dry and temperatures, well, reaching around 14 celsius. so it's staying mild for the time of year. as we head into the evening, though, maybe some patchy outbreaks of rain drifting in from the northwest. and then later in the night, we'll start to see a weather front arriving in, bringing with it some heavy outbreaks of rain and strengthening winds, too. and temperatures overnight dipping to around 6 or 7 celsius. it's a waving weather front that will continue to bring some outbreaks of rain and it does stay quite unsettled as we look ahead into thursday as well. and it is mild for the time being. but, as we look ahead, temperatures are gradually starting to drop back to around average for the time of year. there will be some drier weather for a time on friday before it becomes a bit more unsettled again by the weekend. i'll be back with another update in half an hour. have a very good morning. bye— bye. hello. this is breakfast with

sally nugent and jon kay. in the winter of 1969, a woman was abducted and held to ransom, mistaken for the wife of media mogul rupert murdoch. muriel mckay was held hostage at a farm in hertfordshire, where she is believed to have died. for decades, the location of her body has remained unknown but last month her family went to meet one of her killers, trying to get new information. tim muffett reports. archive: there's now little doubt that the police, after weeks - of frustration in their search for mrs mckay, are searching in the right place. but the search continues. 5a years after she was kidnapped, the body of muriel mckay has still not been found. he can't bring her back, she's dead. but what he can do is end the mystery. this is the man muriel mckay's grandson mark is talking about. nizamodeen hosein, seen here on the right, alongside his brother, arthur.

both were convicted of muriel mckay's kidnap and murder. the kidnapping took place in 1969. muriel mckay's captors demanded a £1 million ransom. they had mistakenly thought she was the wife of media tycoon rupert murdoch. in fact, she was married to his deputy, alec mckay. she needs drugs, particularly for arthritis. it would depend whether she has still been kept in a cold place. well, it seems completely senseless and so pointless. i mean, my mother is the most gentle person. she hasn't an enemy in the world. police eventually concluded that she'd been killed and buried on a farm owned by nizamodeen and arthur hosein in the village of stocking pelham in hertfordshire. but... archive: have you found anything at all today in the search? - nothing whatsoever. arthur hosein, 33, a designer and cutter, and nizamodeen hosein,

a 21 year old labourer. they'll appear at wimbledon police court tomorrow morning, charged with that between the 29th of december and the 6th of january, they murdered mrs muriel mckay. arthur hosein died in prison in 2009. nizamodeen was deported to trinidad after serving his sentence. injanuary, muriel�*s grandson mark shook hands with one of his grandmother's killers. he'd flown to trinidad with his mother, diane, muriel�*s daughter, who's now 83. they'd heard that nizamodeen hosein was willing to share new information with them and tell them where muriel�*s body was buried. right next to the fence. yes. two feet from the fence. two feet from the fence, i can imagine. police have said they will review the latest information to determine the next steps in their investigation, which could include a further search and hopefully bring an end to a mystery that has lasted almost 55 years.

that was tim muffett reporting. we're joined now by mark dyer, muriel�*s grandson, and her daughter, dianne mckay. morning to both of you. watching that report, it is quite an incredible thing to have happened to your family. incredible thing to have happened to yourfamily. what incredible thing to have happened to your family. what toll has it taken on you all?— your family. what toll has it taken on ouall? ., ., , , ., on you all? how hard is it been? you have always — on you all? how hard is it been? you have always lived _ on you all? how hard is it been? you have always lived with _ on you all? how hard is it been? you have always lived with it. _ on you all? how hard is it been? you have always lived with it. you - on you all? how hard is it been? you have always lived with it. you can - have always lived with it. you can put it away but it is always there. at the time, it was horrific, a terrible time to go through. took me quite a few years to stabilise after it. my children were deeply affected, it was their grandmother. you cannot suddenly disappear. very hard. ., . , you cannot suddenly disappear. very hard. ., ., , ., ., hard. how hard is it not having found her— hard. how hard is it not having found her body _ hard. how hard is it not having found her body and _ hard. how hard is it not having found her body and being - hard. how hard is it not having found her body and being able | hard. how hard is it not having i found her body and being able to hard. how hard is it not having - found her body and being able to lay her to rest? the

i'm sure that roy wouldn't have liked it to have been now. maybe at the end of the season. but results do play a part in being a football manager. unfortunately, due to injuries, mainly, that palace haven't been able to put a full team out, roy has paid the price. for nearly five decades, hodgson's managerial career took him all over the world. he started with silverware in sweden before taking switzerland to the last 16 of the '94 world cup. the big clubs came calling — inter milan and later liverpool. in 2012, came his biggest role as england manager. he insisted it wasn't the impossiblejob — results suggested otherwise. commentary: iceland have turned it round to lead. - he later came home to crystal palace, the club he supported as a boy. in the end, it was a season too far. still, ahead of the everton match, he was remembered fondly. an honest, trustworthy, caring man and he can be proud for what he's contributed towards our... towards palace, and towards football as a whole. hodgson's replacement,

oliver glasner, was announced before kick—off and seated at goodison. for 66 minutes, the former eintracht frankfurt manager saw little to entertain him until the brilliance ofjordan ayew. everton have had their struggles on and off the pitch, but with minutes of normal time remaining, amadou onana came to the rescue. 1—1 it finished, as palace's new era began. so after a day of upheaval, crystal palace leave here with a valuable point, while everton have been lifted out of the relegation zone on goal difference. they'll need to improve if they're to stay out of danger, though, with the result of their appeal against a ten—point deduction looming. katie gornall, bbc news, liverpool. good news for british tennis players overnight. dan evans eased into the last 16 of the los cabos open in mexico with a straight sets win over russian roman safiullin and british number one cameron norrie started the defence of his rio open title with a routine

straight sets win over over bolivian hugo dellien in brazil — taking norriejust one hour and 21 minutes to seal victory. andy murray also in action, in qatar later this afternoon hoping to win for the first time this year. and we had to show you this this morning. there's a strong belief that a world record was witnessed at croydon football club at the weekend. now, you better be paying attention because blink and you will miss it. after they scored directly from kick off. it's believed to be the fastest goal, it's being checked. and came afterjust 2 seconds. now, they are waiting to see if they have gone down in the record books. that is incredible. two microseconds. and caught on camera. if you missed that and your team—mates aren't very happy, are

good morning, welcome to breakfast with sally nugent and jon kay. our headlines today. the row between business secretary kemi badenoch and the post office chair she sacked deepens. she accuses him of made—up anecdotes which he denies.

the united states drafts a un security council resolution. for the first time, it calls for a temporary ceasefire in gaza. the family of alexei navalny, the putin critic who died in a russian prison, say they've been told his body won't be released for two weeks. what you get when you combine spiders with a man, it is spudman of course! he has a globalfollowing of 2.4 million people and he is selling thousands of these every week. in sport. almost 50 years in football management, roy hodgson leaves crystal palace. his replacement oliver glasner, who watched palace draw with everton, can he save their season? i've been catching up with luton town's tom lockyer after he suffered a cardiac arrest on the pitch and find out how he's been adapting to a very important new piece of kit. it isa it is a breezy and mild day ahead,

we also have a band of rain pushing south eastwards out of scotland and northern ireland into england and wales, followed by some heavy showers. all of the details later in the programme. it's tuesday the 20th february. a row has deepened between the business secretary, kemi badenoch, and the former post office chair, henry staunton, after he claimed he'd been told to stall compensation payments this to victims of the horizon it scandal. ms badenoch, who sacked mr staunton last month, said the claims were completely false, but last night he said he's standing by his statements. false, but last night he said he's aruna iyengar has the latest. false, but last night he said he's it's another installment in the post office drama, this time starring henry staunton, the recently sacked chairman, and kemi badenoch, the business secretary. here he was being questioned by mps. he became chair of the post office only at the end of 2022, but was sacked by ms badenoch last month in the aftermath of the horizon scandal. he's not going down without a fight.

he says ms badenoch told him someone had to take the rap for the post office scandal. this weekend he gave an interview saying... yesterday kemi badenoch hit back hard. i would hope that most people reading the interview in yesterday's sunday times would see it for what it was, a blatant attempt to seek revenge following dismissal. and there was a follow—up punch from the business secretary. i should also inform the house that while he was in post, a formal investigation was launched into allegations made regarding mr staunton's conduct. this included serious matters such as bullying. the former chairman was floored. a statement released last night on his behalf said...

post office sub—postmasters and sub—postmistresses were wrongly prosecuted between 1999 and 2015 after a faulty computer system horizon made it look like money was missing from their accounts. they want to know why so many still haven't been compensated. part of what mr staunton says kind of rings true, is that why they extended the deadline? you know, yeah, but at the end of the day, they're still not paying the postmasters, you know, they can shout at each other all they like, but they've still not, they're still not paying people. there could be a few

more rounds to go. henry staunton is being asked to appear before mps next week. aruna iyengar, bbc news. our chief political correspondent henry zeffman joins us now. henry, it's an extraordinary argument going on.- henry, it's an extraordinary argument going on. such a strange state of affairs, _ argument going on. such a strange state of affairs, jon. _ argument going on. such a strange state of affairs, jon. it's _ argument going on. such a strange state of affairs, jon. it's not i argument going on. such a strange state of affairs, jon. it's not at i state of affairs, jon. it's not at all normal to have a secretary of state during public battle in very personal terms with somebody who has been involved with some of britain's biggest companies over decades but more to the point was chairing one of the biggest publicly owned bodies of the biggest publicly owned bodies of the biggest publicly owned bodies of the state, the post office, until last month. and kemi badenoch really did go for henry staunton in quite personal terms yesterday in the house of commons, accusing him of providing made up anecdotes to journalists, saying it was a blatant attempt to seek revenge after a dismissal. that's what she would say, the reason she is an this

extraordinary public about is because in her view, henry staunton made false allegations about her and the reason is that she sacked him but also about the actions of her department, the department for business, when dealing with the sub—postmaster scandal. we basically have two irreconcilable accounts. it is not one of those situations where you can see where they both might be coming at the same things from different perspectives. only one of the versions can be correct. when might we get closer to the truth? i think henry staunton will come under more pressure to offer more detail to substantiate his claims when he appears before a select committee in parliament next week, that will be a crucial moment, i think people will ask him who told him, he claims, to stall compensation payments. the government is going to come under more pressure, where is that exoneration legislation that it promised at the beginning of the year, kemi badenoch said it will

come imminently. you year, kemi badenoch said it will come imminently.— year, kemi badenoch said it will come imminently. you said that this would run and _ come imminently. you said that this would run and run _ come imminently. you said that this would run and run yesterday, i come imminently. you said that this would run and run yesterday, and i come imminently. you said that this would run and run yesterday, and it| would run and run yesterday, and it is running! thank you very much. sally has more of the news. the united states has proposed a un security council draft resolution calling for a temporary ceasefire in gaza — while warning against a major ground offensive into rafah. our correspondentjenny hill is in jerusalem. the us is warning that that ground offensive in rafah would cause more harm to displaced this civilians and because their further displacement into neighbouring countries, referring to egypt. it also warns that any such ground offensive would threaten the peace and security of the region. the us is israel's closest ally and until recently it has avoided calls for a ceasefire, butjoe biden's administration seems to be starting to run out of patience with israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu has remained defiant in the face of growing international concern over

the human cost of his military operation in gaza, launched in response to the october seven attacks. the us is very concerned about plans here to push on with that military offensive in the southern city of rafah. just yesterday the israeli government told hamas that if it didn't give up all of its israeli hostages then that ground offensive will go ahead. benjamin netanyahu insists he needs to, as he puts it, finish thejob in rafah where he says there are still battalions of hamas fighters. but there are 1.5 million, 1 million displaced palestinian civilians sheltering there as well causing real concern on an international level. in the last 24 hours we saw all but one eu member state in a joint statement urged an immediate cause, a humanitarian pause in fighting. and it's reported this morning the us will send its top us middle east adviserfor morning the us will send its top us

middle east adviser for talks morning the us will send its top us middle east adviserfor talks in egypt and israel later this week. the family of alexei navalny say his body won't be released for two weeks. the death of the russian opposition leader in prison was announced last week and his widow has since accused authorities of hiding the body. our eastern europe correspondent sarah rainsford has been looking into this. well, these are increasingly loud demands now from alexei navalny�*s family for the body of the former opposition politician to be released from a morgue where it is believed he is being kept. and that's happening as the investigation has been extended, the authorities are saying they now need to check for some kind of chemical tests on alex tait navalny�*s body and they will not release the body —— alexei navalny�*s body and they were not release the body for another couple of weeks so there is an awful lot of suspicion among supporters, politicians and the family of alexei navalny over why there is such a long delay in getting access to his

body. they want to be able at the very least to be able to look at his body to check for any kind of signs of possible trauma and also presumably to be able to carry out if possible some of their own tests. they also of course want his body so they can bury him. and it was that kind of sense of grief and mourning that was very palpable and strong in a video that was released by alexei navalny�*s widow yulia navalnaya yesterday, who has really stepped into the political fray for the very first time. she has always been a great supporter of alexei navalny but she was or is pretty much in the shadows until now but she has now come out with a very strident statement saying she is grieving, enveloped by pain, she said, but also furious and using that fury to call on russians to stand beside her as she attempts to continue alexei navalny�*s political cause. she said that vladimir putin, she accused him directly of killing alexei navalny and she talked about the attempt to

hide his body as an attempt to hide traces of novichok, it was novichok nerve agent that was used in 2020 in an attempted assassination on alexei navalny. the kremlin so far saying absolutely nothing. three young children found dead at a house in bristol have been named by police. seven—year—old fares bash, his three—year—old sisterjoury, and nine—month—old baby mohammed were discovered by officers responding to a welfare call shortly after midnight on sunday. a 42—year—old woman has been arrested on suspicion of murder. our reporter fiona lamdin has the latest. this was the moment police were called to blaise walk, a quiet close in sea mills in bristol in the early hours of sunday morning, but it was too late. three children, fares, joury and mohammad, couldn't be saved. they were already dead. the death of such young children is a great shock to the whole community, and this incident has had a profound and deep impact on all of us in the police.

a 42—year—old woman from sudan was arrested and is in hospital under police guard. her injuries are not thought to be life threatening. they were very happy children, they were amazing, they were beautiful children. especially the oldest child, fares, he is very smart, amazing, bubbly boy. he is just, he's very friendly, he's very curious about everything. his attitude is like an adult attitude, he's an amazing boy, he's so amazing. ijust, i can't believe that he's gone. we couldn't sleep. we're shocked, and everybodyjust kept phoning the others. as a community, we feel like the sky fall on us. and it's very sad. the local playgroup was cancelled and the local school where the eldest fares went was also closed, giving this community, which is in huge shock, time to remember and reflect.

we've kept our church building open all day today so that people can come in and express their grief. and they have done in great numbers, actually. avon and somerset has referred itself to the police watchdog, the iopc, as they had previous contact with the household. now the focus is on these young siblings found dead in their home. fiona lamdin, bbc news. the attorney general is set to announce whetherjudges should review the sentence of a man who stabbed three people to death in nottingham lastjune. valdo calocane killed 19—year—olds barnaby webber and grace o'malley—kumar and 65—year—old ian coates. attorney general victoria prentis said she would consider whether the indefinite hospital order given to calocane was unduly lenient, after he was found guilty of three counts of manslaughter. birmingham city council

he grew up near ipswich and was also a founding member of the dance troupe burn the floor, which paid tribute to his "talent, attitude and energy". lots of tributes from people already involved in strictly. another former strictly dancer jamesjordan said on social media that "everyone who came into contact with robin adored him". he was such a presence on that show. he was such a presence on that show. he was such a presence on that show. he was so popular. very sadly announcing the death of robin windsor at the age ofjust 40. quite he was only posting pictures —— 44 years old. he he was only posting pictures -- ltlt ears old. . , he was only posting pictures -- ltlt ears old. .,, ., , he was only posting pictures -- ltlt ears old. ., , years old. he was only posting ictures years old. he was only posting pictures on _ years old. he was only posting pictures on twitter _ years old. he was only posting pictures on twitter a _ years old. he was only posting pictures on twitter a few i years old. he was only posting | pictures on twitter a few weeks years old. he was only posting i pictures on twitter a few weeks ago. here's carol with the weather. this morning, i'll start to the day, a mile today generally and we are looking —— it is a mild start to the

day, a mild day today generally and we are looking at the rain sinking south—east. we have got one batch of rain in the northern isles and a second batch in parts of scotland and northern ireland with murky conditions specially in the coast and hills in the west. through the morning the band of rain will continue to push across scotland and northern ireland, behind it we will see some brighter skies and a few showers. ahead of it to the cloud will build. there will still be some breaks in the morning across parts of england and wales away from the west, but withdrew the day you will see as the weather front continues to sink south, the cloud ahead of it will continue to build. showers across scotland and northern ireland will be heavy and wintry with some hail and thunder. temperatures today ranging from eight in the north to 14 in the south so still mild for the time of year. this evening and overnight, the weather front bearing the cloud and rain sink south as a weak feature but it turns around in

the south—west and starts to take all of it rain north and east once again. heavy rain in the north and west, strengthening winds touching gale force through the irish sea. a mild night for most escape or where we have got the clear skies. the rain advances north and east tomorrow, windy wherever you are, 40 miles an hour or more especially across the north of scotland. if you follow the front around again you can see it takes another swipe at the south—west. still mild today in prospect but as we head from thursday into the weekend, it turns cooler with temperatures returning to where we should see them during february. noisy, anti—social, and dangerous. that's how some residents living near street—racing hot spots are describing car meets. enthusiasts say these gatherings are good natured and a way of showcasing their vehicles

but there's a history of high—speed driving and dangerous stunts on public roads. ben moore has the latest. it's not like dangerous, because everyone's just got a passion for cars, really. i think it's mainly the community aspect of it, really. you get a lot of attention, you get a bit of testosterone, innit? i it's late on a thursday night, and i'm at a car meet on the outskirts of gatwick. in the 30 minutes we're here, we see speeding cars just inches from the crowds. do you ever worry about your safety? no, because i'm sort of in a crowd. these sorts of meets have people regulating them. and there are rules when it comes to the meets. is this illegal? if somebody tells us to leave, then we'll leave. we won't stay if we're not welcome. car meets are organised on social media quite openly. we've arrived at the location where the car meet was meant to be,

but police are parked up at the side of the road, which means it's changed last minute. throughout the night, we might have four or five locations and we'll go across a span of maybe 50 miles. it can be frightening to some people, people with young children, people with animals. in fact, this dog doesn't like the noise. this busy new build housing estate in sussex is also a car meet hotspot. it's a constant revving of loud, high performance engines. you can definitely hear it even over the television on or music playing. many residents won't speak on camera. they say they've been threatened by the car meets. they come in this bit here and then they drift around this roundabout. it's more about like if one of them lose control and go into like one of the houses. you can see on the road there's

quite a few skid marks. sussex police has been called to more than 60 car meets in the last six months. it'sjust so dangerous, particularly if we've got cars that have been doing stunts, that have been doing drifting. whoa! and it has gone wrong badly. this is some footage of people being hit by out—of—control cars at meets. that is the driver's responsibility. it's not even just about going to prison. it's about the impact on all those people's lives. it's not about the car, it's about the driver, innit. if you're a good enough driver, you won't crash. what do you say to people who say it's dangerous? if you're a good enough driver, you're competant, you know what you're doing, your car's road legal, then yeah, it's all good. the popularity of car meets means this is an issue that won't be parked any time soon. people always think it won't happen to them, but when it does, that's people's children, brothers, sisters that could potentially die

or be seriously injured. ben moore, bbc news. let's talk more about this with inspector anton sullivan, from cheshire police's roads and crime unit. thank you for coming in. looking at the response from our view is this morning, it seems to be divided in two, some people saying, these pictures are shocking and i have never seen anything like it, i can't believe it, other people saying, this is all too familiar for me, believe it, other people saying, this is all too familiarfor me, i have seen it in my own community. you have seen it close up as well. part of my role for cheshire police is to deal with this sort of behaviour with my team, and the other people that are affected in the communities. to police these matters and deal with them, to disrupt them. what was shown in your video, the worst—case consequences of this behaviour is people lose your lives —— lose their lives. people get seriously injured, people will go to prison, and it doesn't

just affect people at the scene but the wider community, friends, family, the impact can be devastating. but at a lower level, it is the annoyance and anti—social heavy of this which blights communities and businesses. so it is right that this is raised and we talk about it.— right that this is raised and we talk about it. ~ . . , ., , talk about it. what laws are being broken, talk about it. what laws are being broken. and _ talk about it. what laws are being broken, and do _ talk about it. what laws are being broken, and do you _ talk about it. what laws are being broken, and do you think - talk about it. what laws are being broken, and do you think that - talk about it. what laws are being . broken, and do you think that people who go and watch even know laws are being broken?— being broken? people driving these vehicles, being broken? people driving these vehicles. they _ being broken? people driving these vehicles, they cannot _ being broken? people driving these vehicles, they cannot say _ being broken? people driving these vehicles, they cannot say that - being broken? people driving these vehicles, they cannot say that they | vehicles, they cannot say that they don't know that what they are doing is wrong. from the dangerous driving, the injuries that they can cause, to speeding, driving without due care, some of these people might be driving under the influence of drink and drugs. the vehicles might not be safe so they might be committing offences where the vehicles are modified in a lot of these cases, the vehicles are then not insured, they might be breaching safety standards. and there is the anti—social element, where they are

committing offences under the reform act, what we call section 59 offence, where we can interact at a lower level to prevent people and disrupt them. so we can take their vehicles off them in certain circumstances and certainly prosecute. and for communities that i am responsible for, we will prosecute without fear or favour. because we have got a responsibility vulnerable road uses, communities. what if it is on private property, not a road, does that make a difference?— not a road, does that make a difference? ~ , ., not a road, does that make a difference? ~ , . ., difference? we still dealwith it, a lot of these _ difference? we still dealwith it, a lot of these are _ difference? we still dealwith it, a lot of these are openly _ difference? we still dealwith it, a lot of these are openly places - lot of these are openly places accessible to the public so the same laws apply. just because it is in a car park doesn't mean that we will not deal with it. and we will not just bring the police and their resources to bear, but we will work with businesses and local communities, local authorities, there are a lot of things that we

can do to deal with the incident as it happens. we can try to pre—empt it, we are always checking social media and encouraging people to report these things. if it's happening on a regular basis, tell us, we will attempt to do something about it. ., ., ., ':: :: , us, we will attempt to do something about it. ., ., ., '::::f ., ., , about it. you are not 100% against these events _ about it. you are not 100% against these events happening _ about it. you are not 100% against i these events happening somewhere, are you? these events happening somewhere, are ou? , ., ., ., are you? there is no law that says ou are you? there is no law that says you cannot — are you? there is no law that says you cannot get — are you? there is no law that says you cannot get together _ are you? there is no law that says i you cannot get together like-minded you cannot get together like—minded people, these are their pride and i0y, people, these are their pride and joy, they spend so much money and time. my dad loved his american cars all his life. we used to go to shows. people have got the rights to enjoy hobbies. what they have not got a right to do is break the law, to detrimentally affect people in the communities. that's the bit we have got a problem with here. what have got a problem with here. what about the challenge _ have got a problem with here. what about the challenge for you in terms of policing these kinds of events? you hear on social media it's happening somewhere, you can'tjust appear, can you? do you have to

well, glasner was in attendance at goodison park — not as manager, but watching from the stands. there he is in the middle. he watched his new side take the lead against everton, jordan ayew with the goal. but palace couldn't hang on — amadou onana with a late equaliser. and that point moves everton out the bottom three, who could learn the fate of their appeal for that ten—point deduction this week. so the end of an era for hodgson, the palace fans and players. goalscorerjordan ayew said hodgson was like a father figure. i cannot thank him enough. he has made me what i am today, as a player, as a man. i came to this book will curb —— football club because he decided to bring me end.

he has been so influential in my career and i cannot thank him enough. i spoke to him before the game. and the knee, he a father figure for me. so there is no doubt about that. and i hope he recovers as soon as possible. ahead of manchester city's game with brentford tonight, their manager pep guardiola has apologised to footballer kalvin phillips for comments he made about him being "overweight." he made the remarks about the player — who is currently out on loan at west ham — when he returned from the qatar world cup at the end of 2022. i'm sorry. once in eight years is not bad. i'm so sorry. i apologise to him. i do apologise. i'm sorry. and he says he didn't speak to you about that at all. did you feel that you...? sorry. he said that he didn't sort of clear the air with you over that. did you feel that... i spoke about that. you spoke with him about it? yeah. i spoke to him.

right. i never, never... before i said something here, i didn't speak with the teams, the players in that case. philip spoke about the impact it had on his confidence. and news on sucess for dan evans overnight, into the last 16 of the los cabos open in mexico with a straight sets win over russian roman safiullin. jack draper is out though losing in the last hour or so to thanasi kokkinakis. meanwhile, over in brazil, british number one cameron norrie started the defence of his rio open title with a routine straight sets win over over —— over bolivian hugo dellien in brazil — taking norrie just one hour and 21 minutes to seal victory. andy murray also in action, in qatar later this afternoon hoping to win for the first time this year. he is desperate to get that win under his belt in what has been a difficult start to the year for andy murray so far. last summer, the prime minister apologised for the historical treatment of lgbt veterans, who were sacked or forced out of the military for being gay. an independent review recommended the government could award compensation, but seven months on, many of those affected haven't received any money. our lgbt and identity

reporter, josh parry, has more. i've offered my life for my country, and that's the way they treated us. joe ousalice is no stranger to battles. in the royal navy, he fought in the falklands war. came in with a huge pair of scissors and said, "sorry, mate, i need your medal," and just cut it off my tunic. when his medals were taken away because of his sexuality he battled the establishment to get them back and won. but now he faces a battle of a different kind. i don't think i'm going to be here much longer. and i really do want to get this sorted. i've got prostate cancer, chest cancer. and i found out yesterday morning from my doctor that it's possibly moving up into the brain now. so i don't think i'll be the same person in a year's time. when joe's bosses found out he was bisexual, it was the end of an 18—year naval career.

disgusting people such as myself, there was no place for us in the modern day armed forces. and as such, he would recommend to the admiral that they dismissed me. he spent the 30 years since campaigning, first to lift the ban on lgbt people in the military and later to get compensation for those affected. the government will say schemes like this take a while to put in. it's at a time when budgets are very tight. what would you say to that? the prime minister said they would make recompense and yet here we are six months later, still waiting for it. i'd like to get it settled now and then that is one part of my life over and done with. it was illegal to be gay in the british military until the year 2000, when this group of veterans took their fight against the ban to the european court of human rights. in 2023, an independent review recommended 49 ways the government should make reparations, including this apology from the prime minister. the ban on lgbt people serving

in our military until the year 2000 was an appalling failure of the british state. more than six months on and for leigh, an raf veteran from liverpool, things aren't moving fast enough. today, on behalf of the british state, i apologise. when are the reparations forthcoming? what's happening? we know nothing at the moment. an apology isjust not good enough. when he firstjoined the royal air force in 1980, he was still discovering his sexuality. i didn't really know what i was. i had just turned 18. i thought i might be gay, maybe if ijoined the armed forces, it might get rid of it out of me. obviously, that's impossible, ridiculous thing to think. flight lieutenant doyle, i'll never forget his name, lovely guy, he laid the charges out against me. he said, "what do you say to that?" and i said, "yes, sir, it's all true." he says, "i'd like you to go outside the room. you go outside the room now, take five minutes, have a little think, and then come back in and i'll ask you the same question again."

well, isaid, "no, thanks, sir, i'm not going to change my mind." it was more important for you to be true to yourself? it was, yeah. it was the bestjob i've ever had, it really was brilliant, it was. and it was alljust taken away? snatched, yeah. i was going to say my fault, but no, it wasn't my fault. it doesn't mean you should lose yourjob for what you are. despite his dismissal, leigh looks back at his time in the forces fondly. but now his thoughts are turning to his ill health. do you have faith that you'll ever see any of these reparations? a little, a little, but not very much. i would like the government to take into consideration people who are terminally ill. now, because i'm at this age, i've got a terminal illness, i'd be able to go on my last holiday, i'd be able to pay my bills off. tomorrow couldn't be quick enough for me. it should be done now. the government say they have already delivered a number of recommendations from the independent review and that they're working at pace to deliver the rest. forjoe, leigh, and hundreds of others, it can't come soon enough.

josh parry, bbc news. that is a story we will continue to follow for you. it is nearly ten to nine. in december, the luton town captain tom lockyer collapsed on the pitch during a premier league match against bournemouth. he'd suffered a cardiac arrest and was resuscitated by medics. only one in ten people survive a cardiac arrest out of hospital, so tom counts himself lucky. i sat down with him at home to find out how he's getting on. daddy's mug. aw! have you got a mummy�*s milk? we do somewhere, actually. what's it like getting ready to bring yourfirst baby home? having been through everything you've been through the last few months. yeah. i'm... obviously, i'm forever grateful. it's... realistically, i'm super lucky because if this didn't happen

on a football pitch, you know, there's every chance that i wouldn't be here to be doing that. and the thought of that, you know, leaving my girlfriend to raise a child on her own is heartbreaking. it's something i don't like to think about, to be honest. and i think that's why it's important that although this has happened to me, and obviously it's a horrible thing to have to go through. the bigger picture is i want more people to start learning cpr. and since it happened, how much have you been able to piece together of what was going on around you? obviously, my girlfriend was at the game and my dad was there. she was, like, looking at me at the time it happened because the ball was elsewhere and she's seen me go down and she said instantly she knew that it was serious and her friend, who she was with, said she let out like a massive scream that would live with her forever.

my dad was there and he said he knew instantly that it was serious. i think you can tell by the players' reactions — they were straight over. our manager was on the pitch within 10 seconds and that's unheard of as well. everyone seemed to know, you know, that this was serious and, yeah. 2 minutes a0 i was technically dead for so, yeah, without them people there, who, you know, who were incredible under the pressure. um... without them, you know, i wouldn't be here today. and, like we said, i wouldn't be lucky enough to be waiting for my little girl to come into the world. and what happened to you surgically? what have they done to protect you now? yeah. so i've got an icd implanted now. so it's common after one of these things happen and you make a recovery that you will get an icd. it's called an implanted cardiac device. it's basically a defib built into you.

so i've got... it's just sat under here. nice little scar now. i'll show you. cool go on. let's see. wow. nice little scar there. the defib sits in the back there. so that's there. that's there. you can feel it there. wow. it's like... um... and then there's a wire that runs across here and then up to the heart. wow. and then, should this ever happen again, i touch wood it doesn't but you won't need to wait for someone to come with the nearest defib. this should kick in itself and shock your heart back in. how does that feel? it took a while to get used to because it's a lot bigger than i thought it would be. but they do that because it has a big battery life. eight years, i think it has — so... before it needs changing. so yeah, it took a while, but it doesn't affect my golf swing. i'm still rubbish, so i'm all right. what does rest and recovery look like, then?

lego. sorry? yeah. yeah, i've built a 6,000—piece hogwarts castle... 0k. ..which was pretty cool. i'm a big harry potterfan, so i really enjoyed doing that one. and then i was incredibly fortunate enough. my friend bought me a 5,000—piece disney castle, so i'm halfway through that one. wow. yeah. so that's pretty cool. the hard question now is, what does it mean for you and playing? it's too early to say. it really is. when something like this happens, there's so many tests and, you know, scans and all that that comes with it, that has to be done. so still in the mix of that. —— so still in the midst of that. on one hand, i'm like, i'm eternally grateful that, you know, if i have to retire,

you know, i'm so lucky i've got to play in the premier league — score in the premier league — represent my country. all these incredible things. and then on the other hand, i'm like, "oh, i'd love a little bit more." but then, you know, that balance. obviously, we'll never go against any medical advice, but it's far too early to say yet, and obviously there's bigger things on the horizon now as well with the baby. and, you know, i'd have to speak to my family if i was ever considering returning. it's too early to say. my focus is on the baby coming now. thank you so much for inviting us into chat and to tell his important story. it is really important to pass on the message he wants to spread. we're nowjoined by dr charmaine griffiths, who's chief executive of the british heart foundation. the message is really simple. if someone goes into cardiac arrest, we all need to know what to do. you
