around 3,000 have died. ijust said, "dad"... sorry. isaid... i said, "i love you, i love you, dad" and then watched him go off in the car with mum and that was the last time i saw him. iran's president is confirmed dead, after the wreckage of his crashed helicopter is found in a remote mountainous region. as more of us sell our old clothes online to make a bit of cash, charities are losing out. in some cases, the poorer of quality of donations is actually costing them money. four premier league titles in a row. it's party time for manchester city, who make history as they're crowned champions of england again. good morning from rhs chelsea flower

chef. we are on main avenue where a lot of the show gardens are. we will be showing you some of them through the morning. the focus is low cloud, mist and fog turning back towards the north—east coastline then sunny spells feeling warm with isolated showers. come on, kes! and how this classic 70s film is being enjoyed at the cinema once again, after the original reel was found in someone�*s loft. it's monday 20th may. the final report of a public inquiry into the infected blood scandal will be published today. it is already widely recognised as the worst treatment disaster in the history of the nhs. more than 30,000 people were infected with hepatitis c and hiv after being given contaminated blood products and transfusions between the early 19705 and early 1990s. about 3,000 have died. here's our health reporterjim reed.

eileen is back in her childhood home now owned by her brother. this here was where all the chaos happened. she grew up here with her siblings and her dad, a single parent. he were a good man. for a man to do that in the �*70s and look after his five children on his own is, to me, amazing. it's everything. so, yeah, i've got nothing but admiration for my dad. but ted burkert had the blood disorder haemophilia and was given a contaminated treatment. in 1985 he tested positive for hiv, but kept it a secret from his children untiljust before his death. we all were younger than 16 when my dad got infected and dad had to bring us up with the hurt and pain that he were going through and not telling us. looking at us all thinking, "i'm not going to see them grow up. i'm going to be gone in a couple of years." it's just wrong, it's wrong. and the hurt and pain,

it needs recognising, yeah. families like these have been campaigning for decades, wanting to know how 30,000 nhs patients were infected with hiv or hepatitis c after being given contaminated treatments and blood transfusions. i would like to know who knew, what they knew, when they knew. if some of this, if not all of this could have been prevented in some way. good morning, sirjohnny. in 2017, a full public inquiry was finally announced, chaired by sir brian langstaff. it saw new documents released and witnesses give evidence under oath. its final report will have to answer some key questions, including what was known about the risks at the time. did the government, nhs and drug companies respond quickly enough to warnings, and was there an attempt

to cover up what happened? andy evans is another waiting for this day for a long time. i think this will be probably the defining moment. i think this is where we pin our hopes, really. we don't really have anywhere else to go after this. as a child, he was infected with both hepatitis c and hiv. he's hoping for both answers and accountability. it seems like it may be as damning as we think it will be, and it will criticise those people who have made mistakes or deliberately done wrong. and i think that will go a long way to being the kind ofjustice that people want. the government has already said this was a tragedy that never should have happened. it's set to announce more details of a full compensation scheme for all those affected, possibly within days. jim reed, bbc news. we'rejoined now

by our chief political correspondent, henry zeffman. we heardjim we heard jim mentioning we heardjim mentioning a compensation scheme, henry, what more can you tell us, what more for the people waiting for this news, what can they hope for? this inuui , what can they hope for? this inquiry. this— what can they hope for? this inquiry, this scandal - what can they hope for? this inquiry, this scandal is - what can they hope for? ti 3 inquiry, this scandal is really going to dominate the start of the week here in westminster and understandably so. the political fallout is going to come in two steps. so today, this afternoon, after the report is published, we are expecting to see rishi sunak at the dispatch box of the house of commons making a statement in response. it's been fairly widely reported that he will apologise on behalf of the government, on behalf of successive governments to the families of those infected and affected. that's a really big moment, those apologies those sorts of apologies don't come along too often, they are reserved for the

great injustices of our age, hillsborough, bloody sunday. so having a prime minister doing that would be a very big deal and would suggest that this inquiry report really is going to be very damning. then tomorrow we are expecting to find out asjim was talking about their about the compensation scheme. the government has previously accepted the moral case for compensation, but they wanted to wait until this final report from the inquiry before deciding what sort of compensation scheme to set up. it's clear it's going to be a fairly expensive one, some people expect the bill for the government to stretch beyond £10 billion, it's going to cover those affected but also it sounds like it's going to cover their family members and so on. so that will broaden it out. if you want a sense of the direction of travel, jeremy hunt, the chancellor who will be in charge of that scheme was out at the weekend and he told the sunday times that this was the greatest scandal of his lifetime and their families greatest scandal of his lifetime and theirfamilies had every right to be

incredibly angry. we are going to find out this week what the government thinks now, it is very sorry, but it's going to do about it, set up this compensation scheme but today the first instance the biggest question for so many people, how on earth did this happen? indeed, thank you very much. jon has a breaking international news now. iran's president and foreign minister have died in a helicopter crash. president ebrahim raisi was heading to the city of tabriz, in the north west of iran, after returning from a visit to the border with neighbouring azerbaijan, where he inaugurated a new dam project. the aircraft crashed in a remote mountainous region, and dense fog hampered efforts to find it. graham satchell reports. search teams have been scouring the mountains of north—west iran all night. thick fog and heavy rain have hampered efforts,

but in the early hours of this morning, this, a drone sent by turkey identified a source of heat. footage shows an aerial view of a landscape at night and a dark blotch on what appears to be a hillside. when rescuers eventually reach the wreckage on foot, they found the helicopter which had been carrying iran's president and the foreign minister was completely burned with no signs of life and in the last hour, confirmation that both iran's president ebrahim raisi and the foreign minister have been killed in the crash. president raisi, seen here on the left, had been visiting a dam project. this is footage of him earlier during the day travelling in a convoy of three helicopters. the first indication that something had gone wrong came on state—run television. translation: there are unconfirmed reports - of an incident involving the helicopter carrying the president.

initial reports cite a hard landing for the helicopter carrying the president. ebrahim raisi became the iranian president in 2021. he was responsible for tightening morality laws and oversaw a ruthless crackdown of anti—government protests. he was seen as a potential successor to the supreme leader. his death will have a profound impact on iran and the wider middle east. graham satchell, bbc news. we can show you these pictures coming into the bbc from the north—western area of iran, that the search was taken place for several hours, they found the helicopter over night and now they have confirmed that president raisi and his foreign minister both died in that crash. there were three helicopters travelling back from the border of azerbaijan when they had been visiting that dam project and only one of them crashed, the one

carrying the present. there was bad weather at the time. looks like it is cleared up a little bit now but clearly a big rescue and recover operation there. we will bring you more news as we get it during the programme this morning. a us security adviser has urged israeli prime minister netanyahu to connect war to political strategy during a visit to israel. 0ur correspondent dan johnsonjoins us now. good morning. what are the americans are saying here to israel? this good morning. what are the americans are saying here to israel?— are saying here to israel? this is the american — are saying here to israel? this is the american national _ are saying here to israel? this is the american national security . the american national security adviserjake sullivan putting adviser jake sullivan putting pressure adviserjake sullivan putting pressure on israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu to set out more clearly what he foresees for the future of gaza once the fighting is over. how will the palestinian people there be governed, how will that territoryinfrastructure be rebuilt? who will represent the palestinian people in future and ensure security in gaza? these are

all the questions that benjamin netanyahu has so far failed to engage with. he has been openly challenged by senior israeli politicians within his own war cabinet. there are serious divisions opening up over this. so the americans are here in israel conducting further meetings today with figures like benny gantz and the defence minister to try to put this pressure on benjamin netanyahu to put out what his military objectives are and what the future is the on that. we know jake sullivan has also rated the prime minister they need to get more aid to palestinian refugees and safeguard humanitarian aid workers working in gaza. so serious pressure coming on benjamin netanyahu but he has so far refused to give any signs of what he sees in the future, he is sticking to his main priorities which he says are to eradicate hamas and return israeli hostages but both of those have suffered setbacks in

the last week or so with the return of dead bodies to families rather than a live hostages and the fact that idf soldiers are still dying in gaza, having to go back into areas that they have previously cleared. there are more israeli soldiers dying and more palestinians as the air strikes continue.— the high court in london could give a final decision today on whether the wikileaks founder, julian assange, should be sent to the united states to face trial on spying charges. mr assange is wanted in relation to the release of thousands of secret documents on the wars in iraq and afghanistan. he has resisted extradition for more than ten years. a new report claims shareholders in some of the biggest water companies have taken out tens of billions of pounds more than they've invested. the analysis, by the university of greenwich, suggests ten firms in england and wales have paid dividends to shareholders of nearly £73 billion since the industry was privatised over 30 years ago. the regulator, 0fwat, disputes the figures. vishala sri—pathma reports.

a demonstration in sussex over the weekend, dame kelly holmes joined protesters angry at the continuing poor quality of bathing water. last weekend i'm on the river medway, i do paddleboarding and i love it. i love it for my fitness and my wellbeing, but it was disgusting, the smell and the colour of it and ijust thought, something's not right. you come for a nice day out on the beach, they put red flags up because the water's not clean enough. i mean, how is that right? is that not meant to be for us to enjoy? sewage spills in england's rivers and seas by water companies more than doubled in 2023, with environmental campaigners blaming a failure to fix leaky pipes and other damaged infrastructure. now a new report from the university of greenwich highlights what it calls chronic underinvestment since water companies in england and wales were privatised in 1990.

it claims that in the 33 years since privatisation, the shareholders of the ten english and welsh water and sewage companies have invested less than nothing of their own money in the companies. but it says over the same time the companies have paid out the equivalent of nearly £73 billion in dividends to investors and shareholders. we're not arguing about the scale of the... what has actually been done or even at this stage what needs to be done in terms of building new sewers and sewage treatment plants. what we're looking at is, who's paid for that? who's actually injected the funds for that? the regulator 0fwat disputes the dividend figure, saying the total payout to shareholders has been £52 billion and also says there's been record investment in the industry that amounts to almost £200 billion

since privatisation. the trade body water uk says that investment in water requires financing through dividends. it added that the industry is now waiting for 0fwat to give it the green light so it can increase household water bills to pay for upgrades and tackle sewage discharge issues. vishala sri—pathma, bbc news. a new 50 pence coin marking 80 years since the d—day landings is being released by the royal mint. the reverse side of the coin shows allied soldiers disembarking a landing craft in normandy where nearly 25,000 british troops landed in 19114. it was designed by david lawrence with support from imperial war museums. it has the inscription, d—day 6thjune 19114.

come into one of the show gardens, this is the wateraid garden, and if you can take a look around, it shows how beautiful it is, it's about our most precious resource, water. plants here can survive very wet and dry conditions so it shows that as our climate changes, our resilient and beautiful garden can flourish if we manage our water sustainably. there will be some water coming out of the sky today but not a lot. the focus for us all is one of sunny spells and a few isolated showers. more likely across northern ireland, western scotland, north—west england and parts of the south—east but the showers, not all of us will see them. we are starting off with low cloud, mist and them. we are starting off with low cloud, mistand murk them. we are starting off with low cloud, mist and murk which is coming inland from the north sea overnight,

a lot of us will have some sunshine by the showers that i mentioned and light wind. temperatures today, a little bit cooler with an onshore breeze coming in from the north sea, 17 degrees. but inland we could see up 17 degrees. but inland we could see up to 22 degrees. this evening and overnight, the low cloud comes back along some parts of the north sea coastline, showers along the south—east, pushing north—west through the course of the night, a few showers in northern ireland, and locally it will be chilly in the north—east, four or 5 degrees possible overnight. tomorrow we start with some showers in north—west england, pushing further showers in northern ireland, later more showers coming in across the south—east as well. in between quite a lot of dry weather, cloud around at times and the top temperature up to about 20 celsius. looking very promising here today for the chelsea

flower show. it'sjust promising here today for the chelsea flower show. it's just beautiful here. it looks stunning, you are going to have a fabulous day, i know. we will come back to carol as the programme goes on. now that the sun is here, it is time to get the summer wardrobe out!— it is time to get the summer wardrobe out! , , , wardrobe out! deploy the light suit! i don't wardrobe out! deploy the light suit! i don't know — wardrobe out! deploy the light suit! i don't know if— wardrobe out! deploy the light suit! i don't know if it _ wardrobe out! deploy the light suit! i don't know if it was _ wardrobe out! deploy the light suit! i don't know if it was the _ wardrobe out! deploy the light suit! i don't know if it was the right - i don't know if it was the right thing to do having just listened to carol there. increasingly people are selling old clothes online to make a bit of money, but what effect is that having on charity shops? it's something ben has been looking into. there seems to be a trend for purple ties this season! more of us selling clothes online could be having an impact on charities. good morning, when it comes to clearing out our wardrobes, more and more of us are choosing

to make a bit of money by selling our old items. the last few years has seen a huge rise in the second hand clothes market on sites like vinted and depop as well as the online giants like ebay and amazon. in fact, vinted, a platform for people selling their "preloved" clothes online made a profit for the first time last year, making just over £15 million. and second hand clothes sales are booming, partly because of the cost of living crisis and also people trying to shop sustainably. back in 2021, second hand clothes sales in the uk were worth £3.9 billion. already a huge amount. but that figure increased to £5.8 billion lsat year, a 69% increase. that includes charity shops which did pretty well too, generating a profit of £387 million for uk organisations last year. but some major charities, like mind and marie curie, say that they're seeing a drop in the quality of clothes being donated which could be down to more

people selling their clothes online. i've been taking a look. lisa, jenny and deborah have been friends since they were 17. now retired, they volunteer for the charity mind at this warehouse in blaby in leicestershire. can we, can we salvage those? quite dirty, can we wipe them up a bit? sorting almost 150 bags every day, lisa says the quality of the donations they receive is getting worse. they ought to always consider as well the quality of the item that they're donating to us. to send us an inferior item, and i don't mean that to be disrespectful because everything is worth something to us, but the quality items, we can actually sell, get money for for the charity. so its quality over quantity they need. but why aren't charities getting the best of our unwanted clothes? people are selling more,

you know within your own teams, people are selling more online, especially to vinted. and since they done the advertising, you know, people have noticed it a lot more. so definitely, that's having an impact. we still sell less quality. obviously, we can't command the higher prices, but we still, there is still a market there for less quality stock. but for some charities, donations of clothes and other items are actually costing them money. hospice and charity dove house in east yorkshire spends around £45,000 a year getting rid of everything it can't sell or recycle because it has to go as commercial waste. it does cost us a lot of money to get rid of items that we cannot sell. that's sort of mainly broken items. that money is money that wouldn't be able to go towards caring for patients. so what do you do with clothes that are unwearable, perhaps damaged or too worn out to be resold? there aren't many options for recycling them, but 0xfam and m&s are running a postal trial, which they think

could be a solution. the unwearable clothes that we can't find a second life for will be sent for recycling to be used as mattress filler or upholstery, or even as wipers for industry. whether it's sites like vinted, the rise of fast fashion or the cost of living crisis, what we donate and how is clearly changing. some charities are embracing the rise of online sellers. many, including the red cross and cancer research, sell their stock on those sites. vinted told us one of its features allows sellers to donate profits to charity and that it's talking to several charities about helping them raise more money. have online sales sites changed the way you get rid of your old clothes? are you a former charity shop donor who sells things online now? get in touch in all the usual ways, and if you are contacting us via whatsapp, please remember

to leave your name and where you're getting in touch from. can't wait to hear their stories, but there are some good ones. a french disability charity has said it's "absolutely scandalous" that more has not been done to improve accessibility on the paris metro network ahead of the paralympics this summer. with 100 days to go before the games start, apf france handicap called the city's underground system a "black spot" on it's paralympic legacy. 0ur disability news correspondent, nikki fox reports. the packed streets of this european capital are going to get even busier this summer when the olympic and paralympic games come to paris. social media influencer arthur is so popular, he's been chosen to carry the olympic torch ahead of the opening ceremony. it's nice to show to the young population that we are normal person and we can enjoy life,

we can travel, we can have a social life and simply be happy. but for disabled people like arthur, getting around the city isn't easy. it's my dream to take the metro because when i see my friends super far in paris and they come here in ten minutes and i have to take three buses, it's sometime one hour and a half. arthur, do you hope that the paralympic games are going to create a change for disabled people in paris? 0bviously for accessibility, i think it's a little bit shame that there is only one line of metro fully accessible. i think in an international city like paris, it's not normal. if i wanted to take the metro today, i would have to use this lift. but as you can see, it is not a goer. in fact, the whole line, line 1a, the only line that is fully accessible for disabled people,

has been closed quite a lot recently because it's being extended. the line should be fully up and running byjune. but all of this has made life difficult for disabled people who live and work in the city. nicholas loves a night out in paris. but getting to this boat party on the seine from his home just outside the city wasn't a quickjourney. bonjour! bonjour, bonjour. ah, nicholas, so nice to meet you. thank you. nicholas travels into paris around five times a week for work and for fun. because he can't use the metro hisjourney is longer, and it starts by getting this train. it's accessible, so it's doable in his wheelchair, although he told us he can't always count on the same level of support he's had while we've been filming. so nicholas, you were in london, weren't you? did you use the underground?

yes. what was that like compared to the metro? it was good because as i say, one line is shut because of external accidents like signal failure and stuff. yeah. they had a substitute plan for wheelchairs. but in france, if the line is shut, this one, we have to rely on buses, no choice. the international paralympic committee was hoping that the games would make more of a mark on the city's transport system, but pretty soon found out it wasn't going to be a straightforward fix. we wanted to have an impact on the metro system in paris, but there is a legislation issue that does not allow that, didn't allow that to happen. it's a big city, it's a huge city so to cross the city is already a challenge. and if it's not accessible, if the metro system is not accessible, it does have a huge impact. the city of paris have decided to turn their eyes to the on the ground transport system, so meaning basically the bus

transport system in the city and they are investing 125 euros million in over three years, which is a massive investment. having arrived in the city centre, we started navigating the streets. getting on and off the pavement wasn't always easy. because that is quite a thin step, that. that's a big one. 0k, final ramp, final ramp! we finally made it to the bus. they're all accessible in paris. we get off here, nicolas, yeah? one of the companies that operates public transport in the city, is ratp. it says it's made a number of improvements ahead of the games, which includes audio announcements and braille on handrails to guide people through the stations. nicolas is going to have to do this journey again to get back home at the end of the night. it would take him half the time if he could use the metro, but it won't stop him enjoying his life.

in france, we cannot give up. it can seem nothing small. but you have to fight for your lives all the time. but you have to fight for your rights all the time. all the time. nikki fox, bbc news. that will have an impact this summer. want to watch in the weeks and months ahead. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. a very good morning from bbc london. i'm alice salfield. a public inquiry into what's been called the biggest treatment disaster in nhs history will announce its findings today. more than 30,000 people were infected with serious illnesses through contaminated blood products between 1970 and 1991. many were treated in london. mark ward was among them and now campaigns to help other victims. i'm thankfully still alive

when all those little boys, my friends, are dead. still dying at the rate of now two a week. it's every couple of days i lose a friend, i lose somebody else, and it's getting closer to me. trying to getjustice for everyone, that's what keeps me going. more than 100 vehicles have been donated to ukraine over the past two months through london's ulez scrappage scheme. it was announced back in feburary that, rather than scrapping them, the owners of vehicles that don't comply with emissions standards could choose for them to be sent to ukraine to help provide humanitarian and medical aid. at the weekend, 20 vehicles arrived in the region, with another 13 on the way. there are calls for more solutions to deal with surface water across the capital to help reduce the impact of floods. it comes as scientists have warned that london is likely to see more incidents of flash flooding due to climate change. experts believe sustainable urban drainage systems could help. they're designed to channel the flow

of rainwater naturally. everything from green roofs, permeable paving, even things like water buts through to wetlands that are artificially constructed. so little pockets of semi—engineered green features. we can never protect from every single rainfall event, but we can be far better prepared with the right kind of action. let's take a look at the tubes now. a good start — all lines have a good service. time now for the weather. here's kate. good morning. for many of us it is a bright start this morning. any cloud we do have will burn back fairly quickly to a day of sunshine. now the heat of the day could just spark off one or two showers this afternoon, but it's only a small chance. not everywhere will see those. temperatures 22 celsius, so feeling warm in the sunshine. 0vernight tonight, dry and clear, at least to start with, but gradually we'll start to see

more cloud edging in from the east. the minimum temperature dropping down to seven celsius, so for tomorrow, we've got this low pressure to the south—east of the uk, starts to move north. that's going to push that cloud further towards us and, with that, we'll see some rain, as well. some heavy showers clumping together to produce some longer spells of more persistent rain. turning very unsettled from tuesday. temperatures tomorrow, as a result, not quite as warm. 18—19 celsius the maximum. not quite so much sunshine. it is going to stay unsettled for much of this week. we've got showers and it will be quite breezy at times as well, and temperatures stay similar. if you missed it over the weekend, head to our website to watch ed sheeran put on a special performance with young people at the west london inclusive arts festival. that's it for now. bye bye. hello, this is breakfast

withjon kay and sally nugent. after decades of campaigning, thousands of people impacted by what's been called the worst treatment disaster in the history of the nhs will finally get to see the results of a public inquiry this morning. around 33,000 people were infected with hiv or hepatitis from contaminated blood products in the 19705 and �*80s. up to 5,000 people with the blood clotting disorder haemophilia were infected with hepatitis c, while an additional 1,250 were also infected with hiv. a second group of patients were given contaminated blood in the form of transfusions after childbirth, surgery or other medical treatment. the inquiry estimates that about 27,000 people were infected with hepatitis c and up to 100 were infected with hiv. just under 3,000 people have died as a result, while others are still living with the ongoing side effects of infection. the public inquiry into what happened launched in 2017,

chaired by formerjudge sir brian langstaff. it was due to be published last year but was delayed as a result of the sheer scale of information. 0ur reporter fiona lamdin has been to meet some of those fighting forjustice. look what daddy's got. he was probably the proudest dad you've ever met. he would brag about us so much. he just had such passion and love for his family. we were his world. yeah. we had a wonderful childhood. i had a wonderfulfamily life. it was amazing. i was in this bubble and that bubble burst and i lost my family that day. the nature of how he died tore us apart.

we were all trying to be brave for each other. you see families that are together now. the family unit hasjust gone. just two months after gaye and peter were married, he was in a serious car crash and needed a blood transfusion. his family now know this blood was contaminated for the next 26 years, peter seemed well until one day, without any warning, he collapsed. he was cutting the lawn and then all of a sudden he was just lying on the floor. so took him to the doctor. they sent him straight down to hospital and they told us, and it sounds silly, but they said he's got hep—c. and we were sort of pleased because we thought, well, you know, what's been happening to him, but we didn't realise how devastating that illness was. i don't think any of us realised

that he was actually going to die at that stage. i had no idea. i thought he was going to get through. his death came out of nowhere. yeah. just four months after being diagnosed, a few days after christmas, peter died. he was 53. i remember he was delirious, which i now know is signs of severe infection. my father was very brave. i said goodbye to him. i didn't know he was that ill. ijust saw him get in the car and... but i had a weird gut feeling and ijust said, "dad"... sorry. isaid... i said, "i love you, i love you, dad." and then watched him go off in the car with mum and that was the last time i saw him. i'm on my own. i feel like i'm walking the earth i on my own now my family's gone. i come from a big family,

and i've lost them all. . chris and his two brothers, gary and kelvin, were hemophiliacs. as children, all three were given contaminated blood products. gary and kelvin contracted hiv and hepatitis c. i got really down and depressed thinking that when i hit- 30, i'm going to die. i've seen both of my- brothers die in their 30s. i looked up to my two brothers and i knew was hemophilia. i so ijust assumed because i was as well, the same thing - was going to happen to me. gary died from aids, kelvin from a failed liver transplant. and you had to watch both your brothers deteriorate? me and kelvin were really close, and he was on a life support - machine, and he'd not long had the liver transplant. _ and he was jaundiced. he was proper yellow. i think i spent the whole hour holding his hand, l looking away from him, just crying.

i couldn't look at him. chris is now halfway through treatment for hepatitis c. cast a shadow over my life. it did change my life. i was scared to get close to partners. i i didn't have any of my own kids because i was scared _ i was going to infect them. and that's huge, isn't it? it is. well, i've lost out on a family. i've been speaking to a lot of people that have had the chance. they've got hep c, they've been cured. they were told. we were never told and it makes me so angry. he shouldn't have been given it. but the next stage would be, "you've got hep c, peter. let's see, let's get you treated." his death could have been prevented. you've given someone a death sentence. not only have you done that, but you've not admitted it. the injustice of it is heart wrenching and it eats away

at me every single day. i was 18 when he died. i'm a completely different person now, and my father doesn't know me. he doesn't know who i am now, what i've achieved. he doesn't know my children. and marriage. your wedding. yeah. all it would have taken was a phone call. a phone call to save someone's life. the memories of two families of the 30,000 people who were infected with that blood, contaminated blood. today we get the inquiry final report. let's speak now to dani holliday, who's part of the legal team representing 1,500 victims of the infected blood scandal. good morning to you. thank you for joining us from outside the place where the report will be published

trauma from many decades ago. but also its been very cathartic for many of them to feel that they have had sir brian head up this inquiry and he has listened to them and, for so many decades, theyjust felt they had not been listened to, they had been lied to by government. the records have been covered up. part of the process was him saying i want to hear from you, of the process was him saying i want to hearfrom you, your stories. and that's made a huge difference certainly to our clients. we are seeinr certainly to our clients. we are seeing some — certainly to our clients. we are seeing some pictures - certainly to our clients. we are seeing some pictures know- certainly to our clients. we are seeing some pictures know ofl certainly to our clients. we are | seeing some pictures know of a certainly to our clients. we are - seeing some pictures know of a vigil which took place outside parliament not far from where you are now last night, remembering some of those victims who are no longer here, the people who can't speak for themselves, because they are passed away and there are deaths every week, aren't they?— away and there are deaths every week, aren't they? there are. i'm not sure of— week, aren't they? there are. i'm not sure of the _ week, aren't they? there are. i'm not sure of the exact _ week, aren't they? there are. i'm not sure of the exact numbers, i week, aren't they? there are. i'ml not sure of the exact numbers, but week, aren't they? there are. i'm i not sure of the exact numbers, but i understand it between two and four a

speak to you again i'm sure. the publication happens at about 1230 lunchtime today and then we are expecting some sort of statement from rishi sunak probably in parliament later in the afternoon, so there will be a lot today and tomorrow. things had gone anyway at the start of yesterday, couldn't it? we know what's going to come next. it's an extraordinary achievement. 136 years of english league football. no one ever won it in terms of men's football four times in a row, manchester city making more history, champions of england again, at home to west ham, final day of the season. i think we were feeling confident they would do it but you got to feel for arsenal, runners up again, liverpool have been here before as well, haven't they? the way city can put a charge

on particularly in the final few months of the season, and they have delivered yet again, gaining a victory they needed on the final day of the season denying arsenal who yet again have to settle for runners—up. joe lynskey reports. it's been like this since 2021. manchester city, champions again! in english league football, no team's been this relentless. manchester city's fourth title in a row. this one came down to the 38th match. arsenal got close, but were two points short. 89 for the season is their most for 20 years. and yet still the outcome was in city's hands. they knew they'd win the league if they beat west ham. it's a lovely take. and a fine shot. and a fantastic start for city! phil foden hasn't yet reached age 2a, but with this he was set for his sixth league title. after all the preparation, still his coach wears his luckyjumper.

but with forwards like foden, he doesn't need superstition. the premier league's player of the year in this team of world stars, the key man comes from stockport. at arsenal, the news had filtered through. their path to history was going off course. deflected into the net! everton took the lead, but it lasted three minutes. 1—1 at the emirates and city not done yet. oh, that's brilliant! 2—1, but in this quest for perfection, it was barely a blemish. last year, rodri scored their champions league winner. now his goalfor 3—1 had city back on course. it made arsenal's results cruelly immaterial. some fans there got false reports. if city's match was 2—2, the gunners' winning goal would have been special. but as it was, just like last

season, one team goes even further. it's pep guardiola's sixth title in seven years and he wants to go on. his contract runs out at the end of next season. in this country, it's so demanding. next season is a lot. so that's why next season, during the season, we will talk and we decide what is the best for everyone. but right now, right now, i'm exhausted. i'm tired. but at the same time i am happy. we try to with all the enthusiasm, energy, quality that that we had, and we came really close. four in a row is something no team has done before, and saturday's cup final could make it back—to—back doubles. there are unresolved financial charges, which the club strongly deny, but right now for city it's victory on repeat. joe lynskey, bbc news.

if it wasn't for liverpool we might have been talking about seven premier league titles in a row for manchester city. jurgen klop bid farewell at anfield — his final match in charge ending with a 2—0 win over wolves. he'd announced earlier this year that he'd leave at the end of the season after nine years at the club. liverpool finishing third in the table in the end. he's the man who led them to their first premier league title in 30 years as well as the champions league, the fa cup, two league cups, club world cup, super cup. the customary fist pumps to the crowd. this was a chance for everyone to say thank you. crawley town will be playing in league one next season after a 2—0 win over crewe alexandra at wembley. they followed up their 8—1 aggregate victory against mk dons — with a deserved win in the league two play—off final. crawley only just avoided being relegated from the football league last season but nowjoin stockport, wrexham and mansfield in being promoted. celtic are scottish women's premier league champions for the first time,

but it was a nervy final few minutes for their fans. they thought they'd blown it, but a 90th minute winner from amy gallacher, whose great grandfather was the celtic legend patsy gallacher, saw them beat hibs1—0. and that was enough to see them finish above rangers and win the title on goal difference. warrington wolves will play wigan warriors in the final of rugby league's challenge cup after thumping huddersfield giants wolves dominated from the start, running in eight tries with two for matt dufty. a6—10 it finished. and in the women's challenge cup, leeds rhinos beat wigan by 3a points to 20 to set up a meeting with rivals st helens in the final. ruby enright scoring a try in each half for leeds who ran away with the match after the break. and he's finally done it — after being called one of the best golfers not to have a major —

xander schauffele has won the us pga championship. he led after the first round and holed a nervy six—foot birdie putt at the 18th to finish one shot ahead of bryson dechambeau and viktor hovland on 21 under and get his hands on the trophy at valhalla in kentucky. he phoned his dad afterwards, who was in hawaii, and had to cut that phone call short because both of them were getting too emotional and them were getting too emotional and the tears were coming. it's a huge win for him because he's been questioned about his ability to finish and get over the line and he finally did it yesterday. we love that bit of emotion at the end. thank you. a lot of emotion this weekend. jurgen klopp, we were all crying. the nation was in tears. carol is at the chelsea flower show this morning with the weather. it's one of their favourite weeks of

the year, i know. good morning. certainly is, good morning, both of you. do you know what, the forecast has gone wrong already. i told you it was going to be dry but look at the rain, its pouring buckets in this garden. if only i could make it stop. if only it was that easy! this is the flood resilience garden, and you can have a good look around if i get out of the way. designed by naomi slade and ed bardsley, with 5 million homes in the uk at risk of flooding, this garden illustrates how outdoor spaces can be adapted to cope with heavy rainfall in an ever changing climate. did you know one in eight gardens has flooded in the uk in the last year. this garden has been planted deliberately to show resilient plans, so if you have a boggy area in your garden, embrace it, and plans accordingly. there's lots of ways you can slow the flow of water and store it, so you can

see the tanks in the corner could be all water buts. these tanks actually held ten bathtubs full of water. incredible, isn't it? the weather forecast for the chelsea flower show forecast for the chelsea flower show for this week is mixed. today it's a chilly start, but it will warm up and there will be some sunshine, 22. as we go through the week, we can see one or two showers, possibly even some rain. thejury is out on that one on wednesday. then, to want to become, the bank holiday weekend of course, it's not looking too bad at all. the forecast for today is one of a few isolated showers, but also a lot of sunshine and that's after we lose the low cloud and mist across the east coast. high pressure in charge of the weather. hardly an isobar insight. slack wind. we start off with low cloud, mist and fog along the north sea coastline which will burn back towards the east coast and some of it will clear all

together and there will be a lot of sunshine and a shower possibly in northern ireland, south—east england, north west england for example, but a lot of us will miss them. temperatures a little bit cooler along the north sea coastline with onshore breeze, but come inland and we are looking at up to 22. this evening and overnight, we start to import some showers from the south—east heading up towards the north—west. a few showers in northern ireland but also a bit more low cloud, mist and fog from north sea. locally across parts of north—east regions, chilly with temperatures for — five. generally, 7-10. we temperatures for — five. generally, 7—10. we start tomorrow with showers across north—west england come into northern ireland, late in the day more showers coming into the south—east. a bit more cloud around tomorrow, as well. particularly in some eastern areas but dry weather too. temperatures are still fresh along the north sea coastline come up along the north sea coastline come up to about 20. but then things turn

more unsettled as we head on into wednesday. we start off with some rain across eastern parts of england, spreading into the north of england, spreading into the north of england, and then spreading into scotland. showery rain coming in across the west, as well, so as a result of all of this, temperatures are going to be that little bit lower. ., ., ., , ., ., . lower. carol, we love your magic trick with the — lower. carol, we love your magic trick with the rain _ lower. carol, we love your magic trick with the rain and _ lower. carol, we love your magic trick with the rain and if - lower. carol, we love your magic trick with the rain and if only - lower. carol, we love your magic trick with the rain and if only you could actually switch the rain. every single day. i could actually switch the rain. every single day.— could actually switch the rain. every single day. i know. wouldn't that be great? _ every single day. i know. wouldn't that be great? on _ every single day. i know. wouldn't that be great? on and _ every single day. i know. wouldn't that be great? on and off - every single day. i know. wouldn't that be great? on and off when i every single day. i know. wouldn't| that be great? on and off when you needed it. get that be great? on and off when you needed it. , ., ., , ., needed it. get a great big remote control. needed it. get a great big remote control- see _ needed it. get a great big remote control. see you _ needed it. get a great big remote control. see you later. _ imogen boddy is hoping to make history today by becoming the fastest person ever to complete the national three peaks challenge. the 2a—year—old is running a23 miles over the uk's highest mountains. that's ben nevis in scotland, scafell pike in cumbria and snowdon in wales. she is running a23 miles between them. that's madness.

the training for this challenge started months ago with imo running more than 60 miles a week for several months. 0ur reporter nicola rees caught up with her before she set off. so you'll have to run 100 kilometres every day for seven days. can you do it? i can do it, chris. i can do it. yes, you can. at this stage it's all about the positive attitude. imo boddy�*s set her sights on a british fell running record. she wants to be the fastest to complete the national three pea ks challenge. yes, huge challenge. i train unbelievably hard and i feel ready, but i'm nervous. i think our biggest challenge is actually probably going to be scafell pike, because that's the point where you're four—and—a—half days in at this stage so very fatigued. coach chris is in charge of logistics. for months now, he's had imo running 100 miles a week. sprint? go on, then go. all the hard work physically has been done, so now it's just keeping imo nice

and calm, controlled. we've been out training in six inches of snow up ben nevis. now it's just about ignoring the things we can't control, remembering all the hard work that she's put in and then just being ready to go when it's time. yeah, three big mountains starting at sea level, hiking a big mountain, running to the next, hiking up a mountain and then running to the next. a20 miles or 16 marathons back—to—back. she'll have to reach the top of ben nevis in scotland, scafell pike in cumbria and snowdon in wales. do you recognise that gate? yeah, it's going to say i think i saw that. it's past cameron house, isn't it? the current record stands at seven days and 31 minutes. it was set in 1979 by british race walker anne sayer. they underestimate how fast that woman could walk. she could walk at five miles an hour and took only a 15—minute break in a 1a—hour day of walking. i think she's an inspiration and it's going to be hopefully

a very cool thing to break. this was the support crew back then. today it's much the same. imo's mum and dad will be on hand with food and dry clothes. i think i'll be making lots of these. you will be. well, she's certainly very headstrong, isn't she? certainly headstrong. very determined. when she's running, she'll- have a tracker on her so we'll be following the tracker i and we will stop every ten kilometres and we will be at those designated spots every time - with all the refreshments and whatever's required. | change of clothing. socks. i've trained unbelievably hard and had a lot of practice with nutrition and hydration, but it's going to be unbelievably tough, so it's definitely not going to be easy. i have absolute faith that she will beat this record, but making a mistake, it will take every ounce of her strength, both mental and physical. imo has form. two years ago, she ran the length of the uk becoming the youngest female to complete the challenge. this time, though, she's aiming higher. three peaks world record, here i come!

nicola rees, bbc news. let's take a look at how imogen is getting on this morning. here's the page with her live location. isn't that incredible? she stopped to restjust outside st helen's, in merseyside, last night. she's already up and about, though. seven o'clock. and she has to go past chester and into north wales towards snowdon. and thenjust snowden and then just snowden to tackle. i mean, it'sjust crazy, the relentlessness of that. maybe it's not quite so hot today? it is hard yesterday. good luck. we are with you and will be following your every step. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. a very good morning from bbc london. i'm alice salfield. a public inquiry into what's been

called the biggest treatment disaster in nhs history will announce its findings today. more than 30,000 people were infected with serious illnesses through contaminated blood products in the 19705 and 805. many were treated in london. mark ward was among them and now campaigns to help other victims. i'm thankfully still alive when all those little boys, my friends, are dead. still dying at the rate of now two a week. it's every couple of days i lose a friend, i lose somebody else, and it's getting closer to me. trying to getjustice for everyone, that's what keeps me going. more than 100 vehicles have been donated to ukraine over the past two months through london's ulez scrappage scheme. it was announced back in feburary that, rather than 5crapping them, owners of vehicles that don't comply with emissions standards could choose for them to be sent to ukraine to help provide humanitarian and medical aid. at the weekend 20 vehicles arrived in the region, with another 13 on the way.

there are calls for more solutions to deal with surface water across the capital to help reduce the impact of floods. it comes as scientists have warned that london is likely to see more incidents of flash flooding due to climate change. experts believe sustainable urban drainage systems could help. they're designed to channel the flow of rainwater naturally. everything from green roofs, permeable paving, even things like water buts through to wetlands that are artificially constructed. so little pockets of semi—engineered green features. we can never protect from every single rainfall event, but we can be far better prepared with the right kind of action. let's take a look at the tubes now. a good start — all lines have a good service. time now for the weather, here's kate. good morning. for many of us it is a bright

start this morning. any cloud we do have will burn back fairly quickly to a day of sunshine. now the heat of the day could just spark off one or two showers this afternoon, but it's only a small chance. not everywhere will see those. temperatures 22 celsius, so feeling warm in the sunshine. 0vernight tonight, dry and clear, at least to start with, but gradually we'll start to see more cloud edging in from the east. the minimum temperature dropping down to seven celsius, so for tomorrow, we've got this low pressure to the south—east of the uk, starts to move north. that's going to push that cloud further towards us and, with that, we'll see some rain, as well. some heavy showers clumping together to produce some longer spells of more persistent rain. turning very unsettled from tuesday. temperatures tomorrow, as a result, not quite as warm. 18—19 celsius the maximum. not quite so much sunshine. it is going to stay unsettled for much of this week. we've got showers and it will be quite breezy at times as well, and temperatures stay similar. if you missed it over the weekend head to our website to watch

ed sheeran put on a special performance with young people at the west london inclusive arts festival. that's it for now, bye—bye. good morning, welcome to breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. 0ur headlines today. the public inquiry into the infected blood scandal, known as the biggest treatment disaster in nhs history, is due to publish its findings. more than 30,000 people contracted hiv and hepatitis c from contaminated blood products. around 3,000 have died. ijust said, "dad"... sorry. isaid... i said, "i love you, i love you, dad" and then watched him go off in the car with mum and that was the last time i saw him. iran's president is confirmed dead, after the wreckage of his crashed

helicopter is found in a remote mountainous region. water companies in england and wales have paid shareholders tens of billions in dividends over the past 30 years according to a new report. money that campaigners say should have been spent reducing leaks and sewage spills. four premier league titles in a row. manchester city make history as they're crowned champions of england again. good morning from rhs chelsea garden flower show where we are looking at the king coming down later on today as the new patron of the rhs, he will be joined as the new patron of the rhs, he will bejoined by as the new patron of the rhs, he will be joined by the queen and other members of the royal family, what a treat they have in store, the weather will be dry, sunny and warm

for most with a few isolated showers. all of the detail later in the programme. it's monday the 20th may. the final report of a public inquiry into the infected blood scandal will be published today. it is already widely recognised as the worst treatment disaster in the history of the nhs. more than 30,000 people were infected with hepatitis c and hiv after being given contaminated blood between the early 19705 and early 19905. about 3000 have died. here's our health reporterjim reed. eileen is back in her childhood home now owned by her brother. this here was where all the chaos happened. she grew up here with her siblings and her dad, a single parent. he were a good man. for a man to do that in the �*705 and look after his five children on his own is, to me, amazing. it's everything. so, yeah, i've got nothing but admiration for my dad. but ted burkert had the blood

disorder haemophilia and was given a contaminated treatment. in 1985 he tested positive for hiv, but kept it a secret from his children untiljust before his death. we all were younger than 16 when my dad got infected and dad had to bring us up with the hurt and pain that he were going through and not telling us. looking at us all thinking, "i'm not going to see them grow up. i'm going to be gone in a couple of years." it's just wrong, it's wrong. and the hurt and pain, it needs recognising, yeah. families like these have been campaigning for decades, wanting to know how 30,000 nhs patients were infected with hiv or hepatitis c after being given contaminated treatments and blood transfusions. i would like to know who knew, what they knew, when they knew. if some of this, if not all of this could have been

prevented in some way. good morning, sirjohnny. in 2017, a full public inquiry was finally announced, chaired by sir brian langstaff. it saw new documents released and witnesses give evidence under oath. its final report will have to answer some key questions, including what was known about the risks at the time. did the government, nhs and drug companies respond quickly enough to warnings, and was there an attempt to cover up what happened? andy evans is another waiting for this day for a long time. i think this will be probably the defining moment. i think this is where we pin our hopes, really. we don't really have anywhere else to go after this. as a child, he was infected with both hepatitis c and hiv. he's hoping for both answers and accountability. it seems like it may be as damning

as we think it will be, and it will criticise those people who have made mistakes or deliberately done wrong. and i think that will go a long way to being the kind ofjustice that people want. the government has already said this was a tragedy that never should have happened. it's set to announce more details of a full compensation scheme for all those affected, possibly within days. jim reed, bbc news. jim reed is outside the inquiry this morning. good the inquiry this morning. morning, jim. this day he a good morning, jim. this day has been a long day coming, hasn't it? how is it going to work for the family today, what's going to happen? morning, sally. ithink today, what's going to happen? morning, sally. i think it is hard to overstate just how important this moment is for hundreds, thousands of families across the country. the haemophilia society this morning saying they think these findings when they are published at lunchtime

will shock the nation, they say that lessons need to be learned across public service and government. as for today, public service and government. as fortoday, in public service and government. as for today, in about an hour myself and 150 journalists but more importantly hundreds of families will be invited into a room in the building behind me and we will be given advanced reading and knowledge of that report. 0n the strict understanding that nothing can leave that building until around lunchtime. the reason they have done this is because this report is expected to be dense and detailed, about 2000 pages long, covering lots of different aspects of this inquiry. i think the organisers wanted the family and the media to understand this as best they could before those findings were released at 12:30pm this afternoon. at 2:30pm we are expecting an address from sir brian langstaff, the chair of the inquiry, a service of remembrance will be held later on —— and then at about 5:30pm we are expecting a government response from rishi

sunak. later on we are expecting some announcement from ligament about compensation for these victims. we have not got —— from the government about compensation for these victims. we have not got details yet but we think the cost will be between 8 billion to £12 billion, billion, not million, which will tell you how wide—ranging this scandal is, and how many families across the country have been affected. ., ~ across the country have been affected. ., ,, , ., ., affected. thank you, we will have more because _ affected. thank you, we will have more because the _ affected. thank you, we will have more because the programme i affected. thank you, we will have i more because the programme today. more of the news now with jon. iran's president and foreign minister have died in a helicopter crash. president ebrahim raisi was heading to the city of tabriz, in the north west of iran, after returning from a visit to the border with neighbouring azerbaijan, where he inaugurated a new dam project. the aircraft crashed in a remote mountainous region, and dense fog hampered efforts to find it. graham satchell reports.

search teams have been scouring the mountains of north—west iran all night. thick fog and heavy rain have hampered efforts, but in the early hours of this morning, this, a drone sent by turkey identified a source of heat. footage shows an aerial view of a landscape at night and a dark blotch on what appears to be a hillside. when rescuers eventually reach the wreckage on foot, they found the helicopter which had been carrying iran's president and the foreign minister was completely burned with no signs of life. and soon after, confirmation that both iran's president ebrahim raisi and the foreign minister have been killed in the crash. president raisi, seen here on the left, had been visiting a dam project. this is footage of him earlier during the day travelling in a convoy of three helicopters. the first indication that something had gone wrong came on state—run television. translation: there are unconfirmed

leader who has the ultimate authority in the islamic republic of iran, and for those reasons, ebrahim raisi was seen as a possible contender at a time where there has been already in recent weeks intense speculation about who could take the top job in speculation about who could take the topjob in iran. that has been eclipsed at this moment by all of the speculation about what happens next. forthe the speculation about what happens next. for the ruling conservatives who dominate both the elected and unelected bodies in iran, continuity, the preservation of the republic, will matter above all else, a smooth transition. is it ossible else, a smooth transition. is it possible from _ else, a smooth transition. is it possible from here _ else, a smooth transition. is it possible from here to - else, a smooth transition. is it possible from here to get a sense of what the reaction of the public would be in iran to this loss? mix... would be in iran to this loss? mix, of course- — would be in iran to this loss? mix, of course. there _ would be in iran to this loss? mix, of course. there will _ would be in iran to this loss? mix, of course. there will be _ would be in iran to this loss? ii of course. there will be morning —— his supporters will be morning him, in the heartland, there are reports of people barring firecrackers and celebrating when news first broke

build but it will only take three days to dismantle. the weather here is a little bit cold but it will warm up. the forecast today is sunny spells and a few isolated showers. we are starting with quite a bit of low cloud, mist and murk which has come in from the north sea overnight, patchy fog here and there in northern ireland but a lot of that will lift. the low cloud, mist and murk will burn back to the north sea coastline where some of it will clear all together. a lot of sunshine on offer today, we could catch the odd shower in northern ireland and north—west england or south england but you will be unlucky if you do depending on your point of view. cooler on the north sea coastline with an onshore breeze but come inland, and we are looking at temperatures up to 22 celsius. this evening and overnight, further showers will come in across the south—east, and they are going to drift further north. some showers in northern ireland and once again the low cloud, mist and murk returns to

parts of the north sea coastline. clear skies in the north—east means it will be chilly, four or five, but generally seven to ten. we start with showers in the south—east pushing up towards the north—west during the day, showers into northern ireland. a bit more cloud around and ourtop northern ireland. a bit more cloud around and our top temperature tomorrow up to 20 celsius. it is looking very promising here today and i can tell you, it is stunning. it looks beautiful, i'm very jealous! pollution in the uk's rivers and seas is a story we've covered extensively here on breakfast and ben joins us now with some new figures about the companies that manage the water supply in england and wales. they make interesting reading, don't they? they make interesting reading, don't the ? , . ., , ., the water industry in england and wales was privatised more than 30 years ago.

and since then, the ten water firms have paid shareholders nearly £73 billion in dividends, according to a new report from the university of greenwich. the regulator 0fwat disputes the figures, which have emerged as the state of our rivers and seas is under intense scrutiny. vishala sri—pathma reports. a demonstration in sussex over the weekend, dame kelly holmes joined protesters angry at the continuing poor quality of bathing water. last weekend i'm on the river medway, i do paddleboarding and i love it. i love it for my fitness and my wellbeing, but it was disgusting, the smell and the colour of it and ijust thought, something's not right. you come for a nice day out on the beach, they put red flags up because the water's not clean enough. i mean, how is that right? is that not meant to be for us to enjoy? sewage spills in england's rivers and seas by water companies more than doubled in 2023, with environmental campaigners blaming a failure to fix leaky pipes and other damaged infrastructure. now a new report from the university of greenwich highlights what it calls chronic underinvestment since water companies in england

and wales were privatised in 1990. it claims that in the 33 years since privatisation, the shareholders of the ten english and welsh water and sewage companies have invested less than nothing of their own money in the companies. but it says over the same time the companies have paid out the equivalent of nearly £73 billion in dividends to investors and shareholders. we're not arguing about the scale of the... what has actually been done or even at this stage what needs to be done in terms of building new sewers and sewage treatment plants. what we're looking at is, who's paid for that? who's actually injected the funds for that? the regulator 0fwat disputes the dividend figure, saying the total payout to shareholders has been £52 billion

and also says there's been record investment in the industry that amounts to almost £200 billion since privatisation. the trade body water uk says that investment in water requires financing through dividends. it added that the industry is now waiting for 0fwat to give it the green light so it can increase household water bills to pay for upgrades and tackle sewage discharge issues. vishala sri—pathma, bbc news. we're joined now by the campaigner, feargal sharkey. good to have you with us. what was your reaction to reading that report? i your reaction to reading that re ort? ., your reaction to reading that reort? ., , i. your reaction to reading that reort? ., , , your reaction to reading that reort? ., , report? i am beyond being shocked an more. report? i am beyond being shocked any more- it _ report? i am beyond being shocked any more- it is _ report? i am beyond being shocked any more. it is simply _ report? i am beyond being shocked| any more. it is simply confirmation, as if it were ever needed, that this industry is out of control. clearly government has little if any influence over it, and macro to the regulator seems to have even less.

—— and 0fwat, the regulator, seems to have every little less. the operators have gamed the season, they have taken on money and bills have gone up 60% in real terms since privatisation, we have given them our money in good faith to invest in infrastructure and that has not happened, it has simply gone to benefit their shareholders and drive their corporate greed and profiteering.— their corporate greed and ttrofiteerin. ., , profiteering. the water companies insist they have _ profiteering. the water companies insist they have poured _ profiteering. the water companies insist they have poured hundreds. profiteering. the water companies | insist they have poured hundreds of millions if not billions into improving the infrastructure. the government, 0fwat and water uk say that investment is double the levels now compared to before privatisation. i now compared to before privatisation.— now compared to before rivatisation. ~ .. , privatisation. i think the facts seak privatisation. i think the facts speak for _ privatisation. i think the facts speak for themselves. i privatisation. i think the facts speak for themselves. as i privatisation. i think the facts speak for themselves. as we | privatisation. i think the facts i speak for themselves. as we know last year water companies to spend more time than ever dumping sewage into the environment. we know that they leak about 20 or 25% of all of they leak about 20 or 25% of all of the water they supply every day. and as we speak. in the last two weeks,

perfect example, 30,000 homes in east sussex without water, businesses have to shut, hotels, bars and restaurants, during the week we had united utilities dumping sewage into lake windermere and then announcing half £1 billion of profit, and at this very minute, people in brixham are having to boil water. the industry can say what it likes but the reality and people's experience is very different from what the industry have to say. quite frankly, privatisation has been a scam and we have been had. iii frankly, privatisation has been a scam and we have been had. in which case, if that — scam and we have been had. in which case. if that is — scam and we have been had. in which case, if that is your _ scam and we have been had. in which case, if that is your take _ scam and we have been had. in which case, if that is your take on _ scam and we have been had. in which case, if that is your take on the i case, if that is your take on the system as it currently stands, what do you think the answer is? what would improve things?— do you think the answer is? what would improve things? listen, today we know that — would improve things? listen, today we know that thames _ would improve things? listen, today we know that thames water - would improve things? listen, today we know that thames water has i would improve things? listen, today l we know that thames water has been teetering on the brink of bankruptcy, just 72 hours ago its largest shareholder wrote down the value of their investment in thames water to nothing. the largest shareholder think that company is

an exclusive preview. pressing play for the first time in decades. this is a copy of the legendary ken loach film kes. come on, kes! it's synonymous with barnsley. a story about a local lad, billy casper, perceived as a no—hoper, who finds a purpose in falconry. written by barry hines and shot right here in the town. well done, casper, the most exciting thing i've ever seen in my life. there's a lot of pride for the 1969 classic. it was thought only one original print of the film still existed, kept at the british film institute. that was until an incredible discovery of these tins found in someone's attic. to find something that's over 50 years old, and the print itself hasn't run for probably most of that time to be fair, it's fantastic. and the fact that it's a barnsley based film, its kes,

everyone in barnsley loves kes, everyone knows kes. the 35mm film is thought to have been played to audiences during its initial cinema run in 1970. it's likely the cinema it was at closed down and it was never handed back to the distributor, put into storage and untouched for years until now. and the print, it's just an amazing condition for its age. it really is. i've got billy there, that's really good. the reels have been loaned to barnsley�*s parkway cinema so they can be played again to the public after every frame is meticulously checked. the film's star dai bradley, who played billy casper, is still asked about working on kes. kes has that wonderful quality of being so real. and that's why people resonate towards it. and it's quite funny as well in places. why is it important that this film still exists? i think it's still wonderful that we still have one or two copies

of this wonderful piece of magic, that's the only way i can describe it. and the fact that people still want to see it and still stop me in the streets pretty much every day to say how much they loved the film and my portrayal of billy, it's really quite warming. a showing of the film is planned for next month. an original copy back on the big screen. 0li constable, bbc news. isn't that amazing? it's a classic, isn't it? and _ isn't that amazing? it's a classic, isn't it? and in _ isn't that amazing? it's a classic, isn't it? and in an _ isn't that amazing? it's a classic, isn't it? and in an attic, - isn't that amazing? it's a classic, isn't it? and in an attic, an i isn't that amazing? it's a classic, isn't it? and in an attic, an attic. isn't it? and in an attic, an attic classic! time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. a very good morning from bbc london. i'm alice salfield.

a public inquiry into what's been called the biggest treatment disaster in nhs history will announce its findings today. more than 30,000 people were infected with serious illnesses through contaminated blood products in the 19705 and �*80s. many were treated in london. mark ward was among them and now campaigns to help other victims. i'm thankfully still alive when all those little boys, my friends, are dead. still dying at the rate of now two a week. it's every couple of days i lose a friend, i lose somebody else, and it's getting closer to me. trying to getjustice for everyone, that's what keeps me going. more than 100 vehicles have been donated to ukraine over the past two months through london's ulez scrappage scheme. it was announced back in feburary that, rather than scrapping them, owners of vehicles that don't comply with emissions standards could choose for them to be sent to ukraine to help provide humanitarian and medical aid. at the weekend, 20 vehicles

arrived in the region, with another 13 on the way. there are calls for more solutions to deal with surface water across the capital to help reduce the impact of floods. it comes as scientists have warned that london is likely to see more incidents of flash flooding due to climate change. experts believe sustainable urban drainage systems could help. they're designed to channel the flow of rainwater naturally. everything from green roofs, permeable paving, even things like water buts through to wetlands that are artificially constructed. so little pockets of semi—engineered green features. we can never protect from every single rainfall event, but we can be far better prepared with the right kind of action. let's take a look at the tubes now. a good start. all lines have a good service. time now for the weather. here's kate.

good morning. for many of us it is a bright start this morning. any cloud we do have will burn back fairly quickly to a day of sunshine. now the heat of the day could just spark off one or two showers this afternoon, but it's only a small chance. not everywhere will see those. temperatures 22 celsius, so feeling warm in the sunshine. overnight tonight, dry and clear, at least to start with, but gradually we'll start to see more cloud edging in from the east. the minimum temperature dropping down to seven celsius, so for tomorrow, we've got this low pressure to the south—east of the uk, starts to move north. that's going to push that cloud further towards us and, with that, we'll see some rain, as well. some heavy showers clumping together to produce some longer spells of more persistent rain. turning very unsettled from tuesday. temperatures tomorrow, as a result, not quite as warm. 18—19 celsius the maximum. not quite so much sunshine. it is going to stay unsettled for much of this week. we've got showers and it will be quite breezy at times as well, and temperatures stay similar.

if you missed it over the weekend, head to our website to watch ed sheeran put on a special performance with young people at the west london inclusive arts festival. that's it for now. bye bye. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. after decades of campaigning, thousands of people impacted by what's been called the worst treatment disaster in the history of the nhs will finally get to see the results of a public inquiry into what happened. let's just remind ourselves of the numbers. around 33,000 people were infected with hiv or hepatitis from contaminated blood products in the 19705 and �*80s. just under 3,000 people have died as a result, while others are still living with the ongoing side effects of infection. the public inquiry into

what happened launched in 2017, chaired by formerjudge sir brian langstaff. the final report was due to be published last year but was delayed as a result of the sheer scale of information presented to the inquiry. last night, some of the victims of the scandal and their families gathered for a vigil in westminster and told us about their long fight forjustice. this is my brother, nigel wimborne, who died in march this year from contaminated blood, from hep c, liverfailure. and he wanted to be here today, but he didn't make it. he died without justice. i'm a hepatitis c sufferer. i discovered it after 44 years. i was injured in 1979, and i'm here for the publication of the inquiry and to see the truth come out at long last, after many, many years. it's hard to say what justice - is really, at the end of the day. answers definitely, -

but yeah, some kind of, whateverjustice looks like, that to happen. _ it's been too long in coming. they've waited long enough. my dad hasn't been fortunate enough to get the answers i and see the outcomes, _ so i'm hoping for everybody else, you know, people can see that and get some closure. - let's speak now to labour's dame diana johnson, the leading mp campaigning in parliament for the victims of the scandal. good morning to you. we were just hearing from people at the vigil yesterday. i know you were there. just tell me what was that like for you after all these years of campaigning just to be there and be almost at the point where the report is going to be made public? ihell. is going to be made public? well, aood is going to be made public? well, good morning. — is going to be made public? well, good morning, first _ is going to be made public? well, good morning, first of _ is going to be made public? well, good morning, first of all, - is going to be made public? well, good morning, first of all, and - is going to be made public? -ii good morning, first of all, and it was very emotional last night. i think people have been waiting decades to try and achieve justice and last night we were on the eve of the publication of the report from

the publication of the report from the publication of the report from the public inquiry. i think there is a great deal of hope that, after six years of evidence, sir brian in his report will set out what happened, why it was allowed to happen, and give some of the answers to those people who, for decades, have been questioning how this was allowed to actually harm its citizens and then i think, most worryingly, that cover up i think, most worryingly, that cover up for decades afterwards. not acknowledging what the state did to those individuals and their families. �* ~' ., those individuals and their families— those individuals and their families. ~ ., , families. and i know you yourself have been _ families. and i know you yourself have been campaigning - families. and i know you yourself| have been campaigning alongside victims of the scandal for years. what has kept you motivated? what kept you going all of that time? well, to be very blunt, i'm a constituency mp and my constituent came to me in 2010. his name is glenn wilkinson, he'd been to the local hospital and had a dental

operation, and mild haemophilia, and he had dirty blood and was then infected with hepatitis c and he came to say to me how was this allowed to happen? it's ruined my life. i want some answers. i want justice. so i think this is the beauty actually of the constituency link for members of parliament. when you have individuals coming to you in telling this story, you can't help but think i need to find out what happened here and help my constituents, so glenn and then obviously hundreds of thousands probably now of people i've met over the last 1a years, who have very similar stories to glenn, who sadly perhaps their loved ones had died. and they are fighting on in their name. but it's for all the people i've met who keep me going, because justice has been denied to them for far too long. this is a tragedy of what happened to them. the medical treatment. but then it's turned into

a scandal by the state and the failure of successive governments to acknowledge what they did to the citizens of this country through the contaminated blood scandal. we have heard, contaminated blood scandal. we have heard. haven't _ contaminated blood scandal. we have heard, haven't we, _ contaminated blood scandal. we have heard, haven't we, from _ contaminated blood scandal. we have heard, haven't we, from sir _ contaminated blood scandal. we have heard, haven't we, from sir brian - heard, haven't we, from sir brian longstaff saying he expects the compensation package to run into billions. how much of a commitment will you be able to get? from the next government, whoever they might be? i next government, whoever they might be? ~' , next government, whoever they might be? i think across the political field now the _ be? i think across the political field now the current - be? i think across the political. field now the current government be? i think across the political - field now the current government and perhaps labour, if we are lucky enough to get into government, have acknowledged that this is a debtor that has to be paid. obviously, the actual amount still has to be worked through, but you will know over the weekend there was talk about £10 million that would have to be paid out. i think there is agreement, though, that the compensation has to be paid, people have waited far too long and we have to force the government, i have to say come into

setting up the compensation body last december because sir brian in april last year told the government to do that by the end of the year and they didn't, so parliament had to basically pass an amendment i tabled to a bill to get on and do this and it was the first time actually that the conservative government since 2019 had suffered a defeat because parliament, cross—party, mps, felt this was the right thing to do so the government have now started setting up a body to paid what we want to hear later this week hopefully is what that amount will be, what money is being set aside because earlier in the year, in the budget, the chancellor made no reference to this yet he knew this was coming down the track so we do need to know what the actual amount looks like and i know there are questions about how that will be paid. is it going to be borrowed money, coming out of reserves, how will that £10 billion be found? we reserves, how will that £10 billion be found? ~ ~' ., reserves, how will that £10 billion be found? ~ ~ ., ., be found? we know that within the next 20 minutes, _

be accountability for the actions that were taken, even if it was a0 or 50 years ago. that were taken, even if it was 40 or 50 years ago-— that were taken, even if it was 40 or 50 years ago. thank you very much indeed. or 50 years ago. thank you very much indeed- such — or 50 years ago. thank you very much indeed. such an _ or 50 years ago. thank you very much indeed. such an important _ or 50 years ago. thank you very much indeed. such an important day - or 50 years ago. thank you very much indeed. such an important day for- indeed. such an important day for all of those families and a bit later on the programme we will be joined by someone who was infected with hiv, somebody else who was infected with hepatitis c and they will tell us what they are looking out for in the inquiry. time now for a look at the sport. at the end of the premier league season it's all been decided. was it all decided weeks ago? it felt a bit like this and there was no room to slip up when manchester city are around. ithink slip up when manchester city are around. i think back to when liverpool lost to crystal palace and arsenal lost to aston villa and it felt like that was it because this juggernaut of a team, manchester city, whose made history before premier league winds, since 1888 since men's football one in league form, no team has done it four times in a row and they come to be beaten

west ham in the final day to let the premier league title yet again. despite being pushed all the way by arsenal, manchester city were very much in the driving seat on the final day of the premier league season. let's show you this. phil foden got them up to the perfect start after just a couple of minutes. what a season he has had and how important he has been for this team and he added another. that girls and rhodri made sure the win in the second half. what a man it has been. it was an incredible run of 19 wins and four draws since their last league defeat in december, that sealed the title for them. man city lifting the premier league trophy. and it could be a double winning

season, they have the fa cup to come against mancehster united at the weekend. let's show you some of these celebrations. and the beers were flowing in the dressing room accompanied by some questionable dance moves. they are used to these celebrations. city still have the chance to complete the double with the fa cup final against manchester united still to come. i'm sure the party continued long into the night. if it wasn't for liverpool we might have been talking about seven premier league titles in a row for manchester city. jurgen klopp bid farewell at anfield. his final match in charge ending with a 2—0 win over wolves. he'd announced earlier this year that he'd leave at the end of the season after nine years at the club. liverpool finishing third in the table in the end. he's the man who led them to their first premier league title in 30 years as well as the champions league, the fa cup, two league cups, club world cup, super cup. the customary fist pumps to the crowd. this was a chance for

everyone to say thank you. danni wyatt was the star player for england's women as they completed a 3—0 t20 series win over pakistan at headingley. wyatt capitalised on some sloppy fielding to score 87 off a8 balls. england set pakistan 177 for victory which proved well beyond them. the hosts winning by 3a runs. next up is a three—match one—day international series between the sides, starting in derby on thursday. warrington wolves will play wigan warriors in the final of rugby league's challenge cup after thumping huddersfield giants. wolves dominated from the start, running in eight tries with two for matt dufty. a6—10 it finished. and in the women's challenge cup, leeds rhinos beat wigan by 3a points to 20 to set up a meeting with rivals st helens in the final. ruby enright scoring a try in each half for leeds who ran away with the match after the break.

and he's finally done it — after being called one of the best golfers not to have a major — xander schauffele has won the us pga championship. he led after the first round and holed a nervy six—foot birdie putt at the 18th to finish one shot ahead of bryson dechambeau and viktor hovland on 21 under and get his hands on the trophy at valhalla in kentucky. lando norris says he's "excited" about the rest of the formula 1 season after finishing second and pushing championship leader max verstappen hard at the emilia romagna grand prix in italy. two weeks after his maiden f1 victory in miami, it was another good showing from norris and mclaren, but red bull and verstappen too good, finishing point seven seconds ahead. ferrari's charles leclerc third. lewis hamilton and george russell were 6th and 7th. looking good for norris and mclaren but maybe not for the season. max

verstappen will run away with it to be honest but a great potential future for lando norris. that's the word, potential. it's there. thank you. look what potential does the weather have for us this week? carol is at the chelsea flower show this morning with the weather. and it looks gorgeous. good morning, carol. ., ., carol. good morning, both of you, aood carol. good morning, both of you, good morning _ carol. good morning, both of you, good morning to _ carol. good morning, both of you, good morning to you _ carol. good morning, both of you, good morning to you too. - carol. good morning, both of you, good morning to you too. it - carol. good morning, both of you, good morning to you too. it is - good morning to you too. it is gorgeous, a bit nippy, but the sun is already out. now the king is a new patron of the chelsea flower show and of course his mother was a patron for 70 years before him and this year the focus of the show is very much on children. shana gallagher has been taking a look. children are taking over the chelsea flower show. the rhs no adults allowed garden has been planned by kids, for kids with help, of course, from designer harry holding.

who would you like to see here? maybe like the king. the king? i think if he comes, i think he'll want to see this garden. it's actually kind of cool because there's like not a lot of gardens where there's a den inside of it. and this is a really special den. do you think the king would go down the slide? maybe! so what's the verdict from the bosses? a 9.9 because there's no hammock. there's no hammock, harry! hammock didn't make the cut, did it? and watch out, monty don. the bbc presenter has competition this year. hector has been selected as the show�*s mini monty. i'm hector from thomas st catherine. and this is ian, my rowan dream. i've been calling him since he was a tiny seed at christmas, and i can't wait to make jam out of his berries. and when he's a lot bigger, i can't wait to plant him in my garden. more than 70 juniorjudges will also cast their eye on the extravagant show gardens.

but will any get a ten if they don't have a hammock? 100 miles from chelsea flower show, there's another spectacular garden. this is highgrove, home of the new rhs patron, the king. he's famously a keen gardener and we got an exclusive tour. when the king moved in in the early �*805 it was fairly blank canvas, which was one of the reasons why he chose highgrove. he had a desire to create a place and improve it forfuture generations. there's been a lot of input from many different people, designers and plantsment, over the years since since he moved in. would you get the king out doing a bit of weeding, do you think? well, he has been very hands on in the past and so forth in the garden. highgrove is also the home of the king's foundation, which supports traditional crafts that the monarch is passionate about.

some, like willow weaving, will be on display at the flower show. so you've had support from the king to keep this traditional ancient art going? yes, over the years, the king has supported me in my business, and it's just wonderful to be able to use the traditional material like willow, but to work in a more of a contemporary way, you know, to the point now where i'm making beth and bluebell, the king and queen's jack russell terriers, which will be on the centre stage in the highgrove shop at chelsea this year. the garden at highgrove has been decades in the making, but the ones at chelsea flower show need to be installed in just a few short weeks. through the garden you'll see there's this ponding area here. and then there are these swales and channels that run through the entire garden. so when it rains, these fill up with rainwater and water runs off the higher parts of the garden into these low points collecting rainwater. so that's a really simple thing. you know, people at

home could do that. you could dig a small pond, disconnect your rainwater down pipe and collect rainwater in channels. there's just time now for those final finishing touches, some pruning and some sweeping as the show gets ready to welcome thousands of visitors. charlotte gallagher, bbc news. and today is press day and it is going to be busy. the royalfamily of course, some of them coming down a bit later on this afternoon when the sun will be shining brightly with highs of 22 celsius. talking of the forecast for the chelsea flower show, well today is going to be mostly dry with an outside chance of a shower. that is all. as we go through the week we could catch a shower on tuesday, possibly some rain on wednesday, and then you are back into the showery nature of the weather towards the bank holiday weekend. the forecast for all of us

todayis weekend. the forecast for all of us today is one of sunny intervals and also some isolated showers. what is happening is high pressure is firmly in charge of our weather. as you can see from the chart, hardly an isobar in sight. very slack. we are looking at light winds. we are starting with at light winds. we are starting with a lot of low cloud, mist and fog coming in from the north sea overnight across eastern areas, just patches of fog elsewhere. that should tend to lift. the low cloud pushing back to the north sea coastline where a lot of it will lift and will see some sunshine. a chance of a sham in northern ireland, north—west england, south—east england, and a lot of us won't see any at all. with the onshore breeze coming in from the north sea, it will feel cooler along the north sea with highs up to about 17. inland into the sunshine, highs of 22. through this evening and overnight, further showers were coming to the south—east and start to drift towards the north—west. a few showers too across northern ireland and, once again, the low

cloud coming back in from the north sea. skies will remain clear across the northeast with temperatures down to a-5. the northeast with temperatures down to a—5. generally, though, looking in the range of 7—10. tomorrow we start with those showers continuing to drift across england. towards the north—west. further showers coming in across northern ireland. still quite a bit of cloud around, but there will be a lot of dry weather around as well. during the course of tuesday, more showers coming to the south—east later in the day. highs up south—east later in the day. highs up to 20. wednesday, quite different, some rain across eastern parts of england, pushing into northern england and then continuing across scotland and, at the same time, showery outbreaks of rain coming in across northern ireland and in all of this it's going to feel cooler once again widely with temperatures from the mid to high teens. maybe 20. beyond that, it does remain fairly changeable.

trying to getjustice for everyone, that's what keeps me going. more than 100 vehicles have been donated to ukraine over the past two months through london's ulez scrappage scheme. in feburary it was announced that, rather than scrapping them, owners of vehicles that don't comply with emissions standards could choose for them to be sent to ukraine to help provide humanitarian and medical aid. let's take a look at the tubes now. we've got some minor delays on the northern line and on the overground, stratford to willsdenjunction. now onto the weather. cloudy this morning but there'll be sunny spells this afternoon. there will also be the chance of the odd shower though. staying breezy with a maximum temperature of 22 degrees celsius. that's it for now but head to our website for lots more including a dramatic video of a bus which burst into flames in twickenham over the weekend. bye bye.

good morning, welcome to breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. our headlines today. the public inquiry into the infected blood scandal, known as the biggest treatment disaster in nhs history, is due to publish its findings. more than 30,000 people contracted hiv and hepatitis c from contaminated blood products. around 3,000 have died. i would like to know who knew, what they knew, when they knew, if some of this if not all of this

could have been prevented in some way. iran's president is confirmed dead, after the wreckage of his crashed helicopter is found in a remote mountainous region. as more of us sell our old clothes online to make a bit of cash, charities are losing out. in some cases the poorer of quality of donations is actually costing them money. good morning from the rhs chelsea flower show. we have come into the st james flower show. we have come into the stjames piccadilly garden which is very peaceful. the weather today is not bad, low cloud, mist and fog pushing back to the east coast, a lot of it lifting and sunshine around today with just a few isolated showers. you see, i had to go to the doctor myself today. he said, "jimmy, you've got to stay off television for a year." i said, "why, what's wrong with me?" he said, "nothing, i just can't stand you." and we're joined by comedy legend,

jimmy tarbuck, as he returns to the stage sharing the bill with barry manilow. it's monday the 20th may. a six year public inquiry into how 30,000 people were given contaminated blood by the nhs will publish its full report later today. shortly we'll be live outside the room where the chair of the inquiry will be presenting his findings. we'll also hear from some of the victims of the scandal. first, let's have a look at today's other main news stories. iran's president and foreign minister have died in a helicopter crash. president ebrahim raisi was heading to the city of tabriz, in the north west of iran, after returning from a visit to the border with neighbouring azerbaijan, where he inaugurated a new dam project. the aircraft crashed in a remote mountainous region, and dense fog hampered efforts to find it.

graham satchell reports. search teams have been scouring the mountains of north—west iran all night. thick fog and heavy rain have hampered efforts, but in the early hours of this morning, this, a drone sent by turkey identified a source of heat. footage shows an aerial view of a landscape at night and a dark blotch on what appears to be a hillside. when rescuers eventually reach the wreckage on foot, they found the helicopter which had been carrying iran's president and the foreign minister was completely burned with no signs of life. and soon after, confirmation that both iran's president ebrahim raisi and the foreign minister have been killed in the crash. president raisi, seen here on the left, had been visiting a dam project. this is footage of him earlier in the day travelling in a convoy of three helicopters. the first indication that something had gone wrong came on state—run television.

translation: there are unconfirmed reports of an incident _ involving the helicopter carrying the president. initial reports cite a hard landing for the helicopter carrying the president. ebrahim raisi became the iranian president in 2021. he was responsible for tightening morality laws and oversaw a ruthless crackdown of anti—government protests. he was seen as a potential successor to the supreme leader ayatollah ali khamenei. his death will have a profound impact on iran and the wider middle east. graham satchell, bbc news. our chief international correspondent lyse doucetjoins us now. lyse, losing president and foreign minister in a shocking development like this in one go, where does this leave iran? it’s

a contaminated treatment. in 1985 he tested positive for hiv, but kept it a secret from his children untiljust before his death. we all were younger than 16 when my dad got infected and dad had to bring us up with the hurt and pain that he were going through and not telling us. looking at us all thinking, "i'm not going to see them grow up. i'm going to be gone in a couple of years." it's just wrong, it's wrong. and the hurt and pain, it needs recognising, yeah. families like these have been campaigning for decades, wanting to know how 30,000 nhs patients were infected with hiv or hepatitis c after being given contaminated treatments and blood transfusions. i would like to know who knew, what they knew, when they knew. if some of this, if not

all of this could have been prevented in some way. good morning, sirjohnny. in 2017, a full public inquiry was finally announced, chaired by sir brian langstaff. it saw new documents released and witnesses give evidence under oath. its final report will have to answer some key questions, including what was known about the risks at the time. did the government, nhs and drug companies respond quickly enough to warnings, and was there an attempt to cover up what happened? andy evans is another waiting for this day for a long time. i think this will be probably the defining moment. i think this is where we pin our hopes, really. we don't really have anywhere else to go after this. as a child, he was infected with both hepatitis c and hiv. he's hoping for both answers and accountability. it seems like it may be as damning

as we think it will be, and it will criticise those people who have made mistakes or deliberately done wrong. and i think that will go a long way to being the kind ofjustice that people want. the government has already said this was a tragedy that never should have happened. it's set to announce more details of a full compensation scheme for all those affected, possibly within days. jim reed, bbc news. our correspondent, ellie price, is outside the inquiry this morning. it is now 12 minutes past eight, we know the doors behind you opened at around 8am. there is still a queue of people waiting to go inside. find of people waiting to go inside. and this, for them, of people waiting to go inside. and this, forthem, is a moment they this, for them, is a moment they have waited years for, isn't it? i don't think you can overstate the oh importance of the day. one charity that has been helping and supporting

people who are victims and their families has talked about this being a seismic day. we have just watched a seismic day. we have just watched a number of the families and the victims go into here about what has been said. i don't think you can overstate the urgency all of this as well. don't forget, 650 people have died in the four years alone since the inquiry has been going on. it is estimated that one person dies every four days of infected blood. and the inquiry�*s chair himself acknowledge that many of the victims are on borrowed time. in terms of the choreography of today, as you have seen some of the families have gone in early. we are going to be given a copy of the report issued under strict embargo for the families and some journalists strict embargo for the families and somejournalists to pore strict embargo for the families and some journalists to pore over. it gives you a sense of how big this is going to be. we understand the report is about, more than 1000 pages, not surprising at the inquiry has gone on for four years and heard

from 5000 witnesses and it has poured over more than 100,000 pieces of documentation, information that does need poring over. the reaction of the families is going to be crucial this afternoon, and the reaction of the government will be incredibly important. we are expecting to hear a formal apology in the commons this afternoon, it's been reported that might be rishi sunak, and that will be a really important moment for those victims, something they have been calling for the years in this decade—long struggle for truth and for accountability.— struggle for truth and for accountability. struggle for truth and for accountabili . ., ,, , ., , . accountability. thank you very much indeed. for many of the victims of the scandal and their families, the fight for justice has lasted decades. our reporter fiona lamdin has been speaking to some of them. look what daddy's got. he was probably the proudest dad you've ever met. he would brag about us so much.

he just had such passion and love for his family. we were his world. yeah. we had a wonderful childhood. i had a wonderfulfamily life. it was amazing. i was in this bubble and that bubble burst and i lost my family that day. the nature of how he died tore us apart. we were all trying to be brave for each other. you see families that are together now. the family unit hasjust gone. just two months after gaye and peter were married, he was in a serious car crash and needed a blood transfusion. his family now know this blood was contaminated.

for the next 26 years, peter seemed well until one day, without any warning, he collapsed. he was cutting the lawn and then all of a sudden he was just lying on the floor. so took him to the doctor. they sent him straight down to hospital and they told us, and it sounds silly, but they said he's got hep—c. and we were sort of pleased because we thought, well, you know, what's been happening to him, but we didn't realise how devastating that illness was. i don't think any of us realised that he was actually going to die at that stage. i had no idea. i thought he was going to get through. his death came out of nowhere. yeah. just four months after being diagnosed, a few days after christmas, peter died. he was 53. i remember he was delirious, which i now know is signs of severe infection.

my father was very brave. i said goodbye to him. i didn't know he was that ill. ijust saw him get in the car and... but i had a weird gut feeling and ijust said, "dad"... sorry. isaid... i said, "i love you, i love you, dad." and then watched him go off in the car with mum and that was the last time i saw him. i'm on my own. i feel like i'm walking the earth i on my own now my family's gone. i come from a big family, and i've lost them all. i chris and his two brothers, gary and kelvin, were haemophiliacs. as children, all three were given contaminated blood products. gary and kelvin contracted hiv and hepatitis c. i got really down and depressed thinking that when i hit- 30, i'm going to die. i've seen both of my-

brothers die in their 30s. i looked up to my two brothers and i knew was haemophilia. i so ijust assumed because i was as well, the same thing - was going to happen to me. gary died from aids, kelvin from a failed liver transplant. and you had to watch both your brothers deteriorate? me and kelvin were really close, and he was on a life support i machine, and he'd not long had the liver transplant. _ and he was jaundiced. he was proper yellow. i think i spent the whole hour holding his hand, l looking away from him, just crying. i couldn't look at him. chris is now halfway through treatment for hepatitis c. cast a shadow over my life. it did change my life. i was scared to get close to partners. i i didn't have any of my own kids because i was scared _ i was going to infect them. and that's huge, isn't it? it is. well, i've lost out on a family.

i've been speaking to a lot of people that have had the chance. they've got hep c, they've been cured. they were told. we were never told and it makes me so angry. he shouldn't have been given it. but the next stage would be, "you've got hep c, peter. let's see, let's get you treated." his death could have been prevented. you've given someone a death sentence. not only have you done that, but you've not admitted it. the injustice of it is heart wrenching and it eats away at me every single day. i was 18 when he died. i'm a completely different person now, and my father doesn't know me. he doesn't know who i am now, what i've achieved. he doesn't know my children. and marriage. your wedding. yeah. all it would have taken was a phone call. a phone call to save someone's life.

the memories of two families of the 30,000 victims. in the next couple of hours, they are going to see what that inquiry report finally says. let's go back to the inquiry now and speak to two people who have been impacted by this scandal. suresh vargella is a haemophiliac and now has hiv after he was given infected blood. his brother was also affected and died from aids. alongside suresh is jackie britton who was infected with hepatitis c when she received a transfusion following childbirth. good morning to both of you. thank you so much forjoining us on what we know is such a huge day for you, yourfamilies and all we know is such a huge day for you, your families and all those other families who have waited so long for this. suresh, please explain to start with, what does this date mean? ~ ., , ., start with, what does this date

something bad i get sacked, something bad i get sacked, something should be happening here which is the same. there should be repercussions for people who put those policies in action because they did those consciously and some of the decisions made at the time were deplorable. it has taken lives away, destroyed families, and it is amounting to sort of corporate manslaughter as andy burnham has says. when that happens people have to pay and i hope they pay dearly. you are nodding, you agree, jackie? yes, but i would also like to say that there — yes, but i would also like to say that there are politicians of every creed _ that there are politicians of every creed and — that there are politicians of every creed and party that need to apologise as well. it has been three to four— apologise as well. it has been three to four decades, so there have been many— to four decades, so there have been many and _ to four decades, so there have been many and how they have had the chance _ many and how they have had the chance to — many and how they have had the chance to right the wrongs much, much _ chance to right the wrongs much, much sooner. and they never, they kicked _ much sooner. and they never, they kicked us— much sooner. and they never, they kicked us to — much sooner. and they never, they kicked us to touch, and now it is notiust— kicked us to touch, and now it is notiust the _ kicked us to touch, and now it is notjust the present kicked us to touch, and now it is not just the present government, it's all— not just the present government, it's all governments that need to say sorry, —

have done, you know? compensation and the money aspect, it won't bring people back. it will give people a bit of comfort, but what good is it if you have got the money but nobody to spend it on? people that you have loved, and have become part of your family, if you can't spend it on them, then no amount of money is going to bring you the joy of spending it with family because they are no longer here.— are no longer here. suresh, jackie, thank ou are no longer here. suresh, jackie, thank you so _ are no longer here. suresh, jackie, thank you so much _ are no longer here. suresh, jackie, thank you so much for— are no longer here. suresh, jackie, thank you so much for talking i are no longer here. suresh, jackie, thank you so much for talking to i are no longer here. suresh, jackie, thank you so much for talking to us today. i know what a huge day this is, and what pressure you will be feeling as you go inside and look through the report in the minutes ahead. we wish you well, thank you so much for talking to us.— ahead. we wish you well, thank you so much for talking to us. thank you ve much so much for talking to us. thank you very much indeed. _ so much for talking to us. thank you very much indeed. thank _ so much for talking to us. thank you very much indeed. thank you. i so much for talking to us. thank you very much indeed. thank you. they l so much for talking to us. thank you l very much indeed. thank you. they go inside and get — very much indeed. thank you. they go inside and get to _ very much indeed. thank you. they go inside and get to see _ very much indeed. thank you. they go inside and get to see the _ very much indeed. thank you. they go inside and get to see the report i very much indeed. thank you. they go inside and get to see the report in i inside and get to see the report in private with journalists. and then it will be made public, when the inquiry�*s leader, author, sir brian langstaff, will give press conference at lunchtime and there will be full coverage across bbc

news and live page on the bbc news website. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. a very good morning from bbc london. i'm alice salfield. a public inquiry into what's been called the biggest treatment disaster in nhs history will announce its findings today. more than 30,000 people were infected with serious illnesses through contaminated blood products in the 19705 and '80s. many were treated in london. mark ward was among them and now campaigns to help other victims. i'm thankfully still alive when all those little boys, my friends, are dead. still dying at the rate of now two a week. it's every couple of days i lose a friend, i lose somebody else, and it's getting closer to me. trying to getjustice for everyone, that's what keeps me going. more than 100 vehicles have been donated to ukraine over the past two months through london's ulez scrappage scheme. in feburary, it was announced that,

rather than scrapping them, owners of vehicles that don't comply with emissions standards could choose for them to be sent to ukraine to help provide humanitarian and medical aid. at the weekend, 20 vehicles arrived in the region, with another 13 on the way. there are calls for more solutions to deal with surface water across london to help reduce the impact of floods. it comes as scientists have warned that london is likely to see more incidents of flash flooding due to climate change. experts believe sustainable urban drainage systems could help. they're designed to channel the flow of rainwater naturally. everything from green roofs, permeable paving, even things like water buts through to wetlands that are artificially constructed. so little pockets of semi—engineered green features. we can never protect from every single rainfall event, but we can be far better prepared with the right kind of action.

let's take a look at the tubes now. we've got some minor delays on the nothern line and on the overground — stratford to willsdenjunction. time now for the weather. here's kate. good morning. for many of us it is a bright start this morning. any cloud we do have will burn back fairly quickly to a day of sunshine. now the heat of the day could just spark off one or two showers this afternoon, but it's only a small chance. not everywhere will see those. temperatures 22 celsius, so feeling warm in the sunshine. overnight tonight, dry and clear, at least to start with, but gradually we'll start to see more cloud edging in from the east. the minimum temperature dropping down to seven celsius, so for tomorrow, we've got this low pressure to the south—east of the uk, starts to move north. that's going to push that cloud further towards us and, with that, we'll see some rain, as well. some heavy showers clumping together to produce some longer spells of more persistent rain. turning very unsettled from tuesday. temperatures tomorrow, as a result, not quite as warm. 18—19 celsius the maximum.

not quite so much sunshine. it is going to stay unsettled for much of this week. we've got showers and it will be quite breezy at times as well, and temperatures stay similar. that's it for now, but head to our website for lots more, including a dramatic video of a bus which burst into flames in twickenham over the weekend. back to sally and jon. bye bye. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. carol is at the chelsea flower show this morning and we'll get the weather from this morning and we'll get the weatherfrom here injust a moment. the sun has been shining. now that the sun is here it's time to dig the summer wardrobe back out. some of them fit and some of them don't. and if they don't maybe you are thinking about selling them? increasingly, people are selling old clothes online to make a bit of money,

but what effect is that having on charity shops? it's something ben has been looking into. more of us following this trend of selling stuff online is having a knock—on effect on what charities get of our stuff we don't want any more. let me explain. good morning. when it comes to clearing out our wardrobes, more and more of us are choosing to make a bit of money by selling our old items. the last few years have seen a huge rise in the second hand clothes market on sites like vinted and depop as well as the online giants like ebay and amazon. in fact, vinted — a platform for people selling their "preloved" clothes online — made a profit for the first time last year, making just over £15 million. and second hand clothes sales are booming, partly because of the cost of living crisis and also people trying to shop sustainably. back in 2021, second hand clothes sales in the uk were worth £3.9 billion. already a huge amount. but that figure increased

to £5.8 billion last year — a 69% increase. that includes charity shops, which did pretty well too, generating a profit of £387 million for uk organisations last year. but some big charities, like mind and marie curie, say they're seeing a drop in the quality of clothes being donated, which could be down to more people selling their clothes online. i've been taking a look. lisa, jenny and deborah have been friends since they were 17. now retired, they volunteer for the charity mind at this warehouse in blaby in leicestershire. can we, can we salvage those? quite dirty, can we wipe them up a bit? sorting almost 150 bags every day, lisa says the quality of the donations they receive is getting worse. they ought to always consider as well the quality of the item that they're donating to us.

to send us an inferior item, and i don't mean that to be disrespectful because everything is worth something to us, but the quality items, we can actually sell, get money for for the charity. so it's quality over quantity they need. but why aren't charities getting the best of our unwanted clothes? people are selling more, you know within your own teams, people are selling more online, especially to vinted. and since they done the advertising, you know, people have noticed it a lot more. so definitely, that's having an impact. we still sell less quality. obviously, we can't command the higher prices, but we still, there is still a market there for less quality stock. but for some charities, donations of clothes and other items are actually costing them money. hospice and charity dove house in east yorkshire spends around £a5,000 a year getting rid of everything it can't sell or recycle because it has to go as commercial waste.

it does cost us a lot of money to get rid of items that we cannot sell. that's sort of mainly broken items. that money is money that wouldn't be able to go towards caring for patients. so what do you do with clothes that are unwearable, perhaps damaged or too worn out to be resold? there aren't many options for recycling them, but 0xfam and m&s are running a postal trial, which they think could be a solution. the unwearable clothes that we can't find a second life for will be sent for recycling to be used as mattress filler or upholstery, or even as wipers for industry. whether it's sites like vinted, the rise of fast fashion or the cost of living crisis, what we donate and how is clearly changing. some charities are embracing the rise of online sellers. many, including the red cross and cancer research sell their stock on those sites.

vinted told us one of its features allows sellers to donate profits to charity and that it's talking to several charities about helping them raise more money. the thing with this is some people actually still like that joy of rummaging through a charity shop, going through the rails, picking out something they may not have searched out online, and ending up as something they rather quite like. and it's always better to see something in the flesh, isn't it? try it on and all of that. clearly, nothing for this season as purple ties, john, isn't it? ties are a good point because he's to get loads of ties in the shops but you can't get them in department stores any more so charity shops are brilliant. you can get ties but there is not a massive selection. charity shops are brilliant for ties. people changing habits, people aren't going into the office is much, may be working from home, they got a load of ties, maybe

they could sell those online and make a bit of cash on the side. what colour are we going to wear tomorrow? thank you. there are some tight telepathy going on today. all the boys are wearing purple ties. carol has taken her coat off which means it's going to be a gorgeous day at the chelsea flower show. good morning. day at the chelsea flower show. good morninr. ,., ., day at the chelsea flower show. good mornin. _ ,., ., ., day at the chelsea flower show. good morninr. ., ., i. ., �* morning. good morning to you. you're absolutely right _ morning. good morning to you. you're absolutely right it's _ morning. good morning to you. you're absolutely right it's going _ morning. good morning to you. you're absolutely right it's going to _ morning. good morning to you. you're absolutely right it's going to be i absolutely right it's going to be gorgeous here i have come inside a lovely roman courtyard garden so if i get out of the way you can have a look at it. it is newton somerset courtyard garden inspired by the roman villa on the site of the newton in somerset and also on the ancient gardens in pompeii and naples. rick is in the background looking resplendent in his togo. he is one of the on—site archaeologists, and this is basically where the roman is one an

axe, the brazier is making a welcoming atmosphere and our medicinal plants in which the romans were very much into this garden is going to be opened by the italian ambassador and his wife. at 11 o'clock this morning. the sun is shining outside and the temperature has risen because it was cold this morning. and the forecast for the chelsea flower show, as we go through the rest of this week, is a little bit changeable. so today, for press day, sunshine and highs of 22. tomorrow and wednesday, for the member state, there could well be some showers, may be some rain on wednesday, and then for members of the public have got tickets, we are looking out once again one or two showers darting around but today sunshine with a few isolated showers and high pressure is firmly in charge, hardly in isobar inside and light breezes. now we start off a day with low cloud, mist and fog

which is come inland from the north sea overnight. patchy fog here and there but a lot of it will lift and clear back to the north sea where a lot of it will also lift. a fair bit of sunshine around. you could catch a shower in northern ireland, north—west england and south—east england, but consider yourself unlucky depending on your point of view if you do. cool on the north sea coastline where we have an onshore breeze, but inland, highs up to 22. overnight, further showers coming in from the south—eastern areas drifting eastwards. showers across northern ireland and once again all the low cloud mist and murk comes in from the north sea. under clear skies in the north—east, chilly temperatures falling away to a-5 . chilly temperatures falling away to a—5. generally, 7—10. tomorrow we start with the showers across north—west england continuing to push north—westward is, showers in northern ireland, and then later in the day, more showers in the south—east. more cloud around

tomorrow as well and still some murky conditions along the north sea coastline. as a result, temperatures will be a little bit lower than they are going to be today but still looking at highs up to 20 celsius. on wednesday, a bit of a change, because you can see all the rain across eastern england pushing into northern england and then spreading into scotland. at the same time, another weather front coming in across northern ireland introducing some showery outbreaks of rain but, in between, some dry conditions but it will feel cooler as a result highs in the mid to high teens, possibly 20 somewhere. promises, karen, possibly 20 somewhere. promises, karen. thank _ possibly 20 somewhere. promises, karen, thank you. _ possibly 20 somewhere. promises, karen, thank you. we _ possibly 20 somewhere. promises, karen, thank you. we will- possibly 20 somewhere. promises, karen, thank you. we will hold i possibly 20 somewhere. promises, karen, thank you. we will hold you | karen, thank you. we will hold you to that. —— carol. with her bright pink hair and love of bold prints, dame zandra rhodes has an impressive career, designing garments for celebrities including freddie mercury and princess diana. you name it she's designed for them. after 50 years in the fashion

industry, dame zandra is digitally archiving her work to help inspire the next generation of designers. our reporterjames lewer has been to meet her. she's had a career in fashion spanning over five decades. now dame zandra rhodes is focused on preserving her work so that future generations can learn from her wealth of experience. time goes so quickly that you suddenly realise these things get forgotten. and it's so important, and having students learn to handle all these things and see how the garments really were. and then once they're all put together, you can actually... they can refer to them across the world. the university for the creative arts is digitally archiving 150 fashion pieces from the designer, and students from deprived backgrounds where zandra grew up will also benefit from an outreach programme. she explains why giving back to her roots means a lot to her. medway college of art, which is now part of the university of creative arts,

was really my grounding. it was where i learnt to draw, where i learnt to see things imaginatively. and with that knowledge she went on to design garments for the grandest of royalty. this was a suit that i was doing for princess diana for wearing for ascot. zandra tells us all about the time she first met princess diana. i would go to the palace. i'd curtsy as i went in, and then i'd try the dress on her. and then, of course, you know, she wanted to make sure that it never, if she got out of a car that you couldn't look up her skirt because she was worried there would be a photographer lying on the ground waiting to get the wrong shot. and from royal princesses to music legends. here's freddie mercury at london's rainbow theatre in 197a, wearing the outfits she made just for him. in '75, freddie mercury and brian came to see me.

i tried on a bridal top on him and said to him, "move around." and it's that pleated one that you always see in the pictures and on the films. but even though she's met stars far and wide over the years, it's growing up with her mum in medway that sparked her passion forfashion. she was so exotic, you know. all the other mothers probably didn't even have makeup. and there she was, looking like a fashion model. but really, she must have been my, i suppose, my idol. and now, with a helping hand, the next great fashion designer could be close to where it all started for zandra. shall i?jimmy shall i? jimmy tarbuck is here. looking pretty suave and smart yourself. i looking pretty suave and smart ourself. ., �* ~ ., ., yourself. i don't know about that. this outfit was _ yourself. i don't know about that. this outfit was in _ yourself. i don't know about that. this outfit was in the _ yourself. i don't know about that. this outfit was in the room i yourself. i don't know about that. this outfit was in the room next l this outfit was in the room next
