6:13 am

there was also quite a troubling poll for them yesterday, just one, but it suggested reform uk are actually ahead of the conservatives and the prime minister was asked about that. this is what he had to say. about that. this is what he had to sa . ~ . about that. this is what he had to sa . . ., ., about that. this is what he had to sa. ., ., , ., say. what i would say is if that ole and say. what i would say is if that pole and all— say. what i would say is if that pole and all these _ say. what i would say is if that pole and all these things i say. what i would say is if that pole and all these things were| pole and all these things were replicated on election day what that would _ replicated on election day what that would be _ replicated on election day what that would be attending a blank cheque to keir starmer to increase people's taxes _ keir starmer to increase people's taxes on — keir starmer to increase people's taxes on their home, their car, their— taxes on their home, their car, lheirlob, — taxes on their home, their car, theirjob, their pension, their house — theirjob, their pension, their house - — theirjob, their pension, their house — that's what it will do, so i will continue — house — that's what it will do, so i will continue fighting very hard to make _ will continue fighting very hard to make sure — will continue fighting very hard to make sure everyone understands the 'oys make sure everyone understands the joys that _ make sure everyone understands the joys that is— make sure everyone understands the joys that is ahead of them. —— poll. to be _ joys that is ahead of them. —— poll. to be clear— joys that is ahead of them. —— poll. to be clear that isjust one poll, to be clear that is just one poll, the broader trend of looking across them all, is that nigel farage ms mclarty, reform uk, is very much in third place. they do have the momentum behind them and the lib dems are seeing a slight increase in their polling, it looks like some of ed davey�*s eye—catching stance that we saw early on in the campaign
6:15 am
trail, people mightjust be starting to notice them. there are three weeks to go though and we should never claim that anything in these cases is a foregone conclusion. absolutely not. hannah miller there for us. sandwiches, wraps, and salads found in major uk supermarkets are being recalled because of a possible contamination with e.coli. the bacteria has not been detected in the items, but at least 60 types of product are being removed as a precaution. our health correspondent jim reed has the latest. a recall of this size is unusual. almost every major supermarket chain is removing products from its shelves as the hunt for the source of this outbreak continues. e.coli is a bacterial infection which can cause stomach cramps, sickness and fever. genetic tests show the 211 cases confirmed so far are all linked in some way. to date, there have been 147 cases in england,
6:16 am
27 in wales, 35 in scotland and two in northern ireland, though it's thought those infections were acquired in england. in total, at least 67 people have needed hospital treatment. if you have really painful stomach ache or bloody diarrhoea, those are the things that should ring the alarm bells, seek medical advice. investigators say they've narrowed down the cause of the infection to a type of lettuce leaf and are working to identify the supplier orfarm involved. two food manufacturers have already withdrawn products which may contain the same leaf, while a third company could be added as soon as today. none of the items have tested positive for e.coli but retailers have been asked to remove them from sale as a precaution. the products named so far include 60 different types of premade sandwiches, wraps and salads. most are own—label products sold by chains such as tesco, sainsbury�*s, asda and morrisons as well as boots and aldi. a full list is on the bbc website. supermarkets are asking
6:17 am
shoppers who've bought any of the infected products not to eat them, but to return them to a store where they'll be given a full refund. the time now is 6.17. 50 years ago, hazel davies took a job as a lollipop lady, saying it would only be a temporaryjob — but she's still in the job today. to mark five decades of work, hazel was given a surprise celebration by children at her local school in cardiff. she has become renowned in her community for her "safe journey home" motto, and in 2015 was awarded the british empire medal for her crossing patrol services. that is a long time doing thatjob but she has seen generations of kids pass. ., but she has seen generations of kids ass. ., ., , ., pass. some of whom, if they have sta ed in pass. some of whom, if they have stayed in the _ pass. some of whom, if they have stayed in the area, _ pass. some of whom, if they have stayed in the area, would - pass. some of whom, if they have stayed in the area, would now i pass. some of whom, if they have stayed in the area, would now be | pass. some of whom, if they have i stayed in the area, would now be the mums and grandparents of children. lovely story, congratulations. it is 6.17. here's sarah with the weather.
6:18 am
good morning to you at home. the weekend? weather is looking a little bit mixed to say the least. we have some blue sky and sunshine are at times so won't be raining all weekend, this is the picture in eastbourne, but all of us will see things turning a bit more unsettled so through today and into tomorrow, sunshine and heavy showers and thunderstorms and it is still a little cool for the time of year. that is all down to the fact that we've got slow—moving low pressure system sitting right the uk, we will see showers and longer spells of rain rotating around that area of low pressure. some drier, brighter weather this morning for parts of scotland, also central and southeastern england seeing sunshine, heavy showers towards the southwest and wales will creep their way eastwards and as we head into the afternoon we could see showers and thunderstorms cropping up most anywhere. in the south they will be moving through swiftly on these brisk winds, these are the average wind speeds but we could see wind gusts up to a0 miles an hour in the
6:19 am
english channel so quite blustery in the south, lighter winds further north, the showers will be more slow—moving here. we could see 17—18 for southern parts of england and wales. when you do see the sunshine come through it is pretty strong this time of year, high levels of uv and moderate levels of pollen still across—the—board, low levels across parts of northern scotland. into the evening hours and tonight the showers become less frequent so they will ease a little but we will see more rain starting to work in on a frontal system across the northern half of scotland, a soggy start to sunday here. overnight temperatures falling to between 7— 10 degrees by first thing tomorrow morning. through the day tomorrow we have more of the same, low pressure driving however, fewer showers across parts of england and wales but further north we will have fronts moving on, that will bring more persistent rain to central and northern scotland, that was slipped further south into northern ireland and southern scotland later in the day. the england and wales are some
6:20 am
sunshine tomorrow, still showers but they won't be as many and they won't be as heavy as we got out there today, especially towards the west and a few degrees warmer in the south, but only the midteens across parts of scotland and northern ireland. into monday, some sunshine and again a few showers, not as many by the time we get to monday but they could crop up almost anywhere, particularly the parts of northern england, wales perhaps as well. to discover that we could see temperatures around 20 degrees. it is looking cooler across scotland but the outlook as we had through the course of next week, high pressure tries to move in, low pressure tries to move in, low pressure not far away towards the south. still a little bit up—and—down, sunny spells, scattered showers but it looks like as we head into next week it will be a little bit warmer than it has been over the past few days. thank you, tomorrow, two football teams will come together for a special charity match, and it's being held on father's day.

the princess also says she is looking forward to trooping the colour, the military parade for the king's official birthday. she will ride in a carriage with her children today before appearing on the buckingham palace balcony. she's also hoping to attend some events over the summer. this statement, written by the princess herself, is a message of cautious optimism after what's been an incredibly difficult time for her and herfamily. she's still continuing with treatment, but she now feels ready to attend some public events. but it's being stressed this isn't a return to full public duties, with catherine saying she is taking each day as it comes and allowing herself some much needed time to heal. charlotte gallagher, bbc news, kensington palace. just coming up to seven: 04. you will take us through the kings but

in some ways it doesn't feel real, but, yeah, i'm very humbled and honoured at the same time. she's just one of many recognised for work in the local community. lizo mzimba, bbc news. it was a sobering night for scotland at the euros, as the team suffered a bruising 5—1 defeat to hosts germany in the opening match of the tournament. let us talk tojohn watson who is in music —— munich this morning. it was all was going to be a doll order. good morning hugh, by the way. always a tall to beat the hosts. there are other games to play, all is not lost. there are other games to play, all is not lost-— there are other games to play, all is not lost. . ,., ., is not lost. there are indeed. good mornint , is not lost. there are indeed. good morning. it — is not lost. there are indeed. good morning. it was — is not lost. there are indeed. good morning, it was as _ is not lost. there are indeed. good morning, it was as you _ is not lost. there are indeed. good morning, it was as you say, - is not lost. there are indeed. good morning, it was as you say, naga, | is not lost. there are indeed. good i morning, it was as you say, naga, is staggering night and a reality check for the scotland team, there was hope, so much goodwill, the party atmosphere that the scot supporters arriving in their thousands are generated, that was soon extinguished not long after kick off
7:08 am
as they slipped to that 5—1 defeat, the biggest opening—day defeat ever at a european championship. as dan roan can tell us. they'd lost all hope and it was only half—time, shell—shocked scotland fans watching the team being handed a footballing lesson by a rampant germany. commentator: germany five, scotland one. - by the end they'd suffered the heaviest defeat at a major tournament in 70 years. scotland's euros for the worst possible start. they never turned up tonight. end of story. germany could have gone a reserve team tonight and still beaten scotland. i think we expected that. we didn't expect to win, but we got a goal, so it was ok. this was a free game, - it was a free game, you know what i mean? first game of the tournament, germany's home. _ come on. be good one time. just one time for me, for me! germany may not be the footballing force they once were, but if they were feeling the pressure it didn't show. within ten minutes florian wirtz getting the tournament off
7:09 am
to the perfect start. shortly after, fellow youngster jamal musiala extending the hosts' lead. good feet, 2—0. scotland being handed a reality check. but at a time when they needed cool heads, what they got was a moment of recklessness after angus gunn had saved well, ryan porteous lunged at ilkay gundogan. it looked bad and the var agreed. a red card duly followed before kai havertz completed a first half to forget for the chastened visitors. germany in dreamland. for scotland, this was now about damage limitation. goodness me, what a finish that is. but they could do nothing about nicholas walker's ferocious shot. gunn given no chance, germany four up and in total control. the visiting fans could at least share a late goal, albeit if the last touch came of a german defender. a goal off ruediger here. but the hosts weren't finished.
7:10 am
emre can with a fifth. scotland's humiliation complete. scotland arrived here with genuine hopes of reaching the knockout stage of a major tournament for the first time in their history, but having been humbled by their hosts they must regroup quickly if their stay here as not to be a short one. dan roan, bbc news, munich. yes, what this means now is a real test of scholar�*s character. can they dust themselves off and get the performances they need in other matches against switzerland and hungary to come to keep their hopes alive. whereas yesterday the square in munich was awash with blue antakya in munich was awash with blue anta kya tarzan in munich was awash with blue antakya tarzan mx way today for a german festival. —— blue and tartan. we will have some music a little later on. it's a reminder, isn't it, that it really does, and we have seen, germany's tournament kick into

7:15 am
our health correspondent jim reed has the latest. a recall of this size is unusual. almost every major supermarket chain is removing products from its shelves as the hunt for the source of this outbreak continues. e.coli is a bacterial infection which can cause stomach cramps, sickness and fever. genetic tests show the 211 cases confirmed so far are all linked in some way. to date, there have been 147 cases in england, 27 in wales, 35 in scotland and two in northern ireland, though it's thought those infections were acquired in england. in total, at least 67 people have needed hospital treatment. if you have really painful stomach ache or bloody diarrhoea, those are the things that should ring the alarm bells, seek medical advice. investigators say they've narrowed down the cause of the infection to a type of lettuce leaf and are working to identify the supplier orfarm involved. two food manufacturers have already
7:16 am
withdrawn products which may contain the same leaf, while a third company could be added as soon as today. none of the items have tested positive for e.coli but retailers have been asked to remove them from sale as a precaution. the products named so far include 60 different types of premade sandwiches, wraps and salads. most are own—label products sold by chains such as tesco, sainsbury�*s, asda and morrisons as well as boots and aldi. a full list is on the bbc website. supermarkets are asking shoppers who've bought any of the infected products not to eat them, but to return them to a store where they'll be given a full refund. 7.16 now. 50 years ago, hazel davies started working as a lollipop lady saying it would only be a temporaryjob — but she's still doing it today.
7:17 am
to mark five decades of work, hazel was given a surprise celebration by children at her local school in cardiff. she has become renowned in her community for her "safe journey home" motto and in 2015 was awarded the british empire medal for her crossing patrol services. here's sarah with the weather. good morning. good morning to you at home. the weekend will try to better everything, unsettled and changeable weather on the cards over the next few days but we have some blue sky and sunshine, at this stage ofjune the sunshine is really strong when you do see it. and we have some around the coast first thing this morning. as we have through the day some spells of sunshine but showers will pop up almost anywhere. that will pop up almost anywhere. that will be the story through the weekend, temperatures still radical at this stage injune. it is low pressure driving things, sitting right across the centre of the uk,
7:18 am
it is around the edges of the low pressure that we will have windy conditions and plenty of showers really rotating around that low pressure, we have them this morning for wales, south—western england, some happy ones for southwest scotland as well. sunshine for central scotland in southeast england but as we have through the afternoon showers will become more frequent, heavy and hungry in places as well. down towards southern england where we have the brisk showers will rattle through quickly, lighter winds further north and the showers will be slow—moving. temperatures for most of us around 14- 16 temperatures for most of us around 14— 16 degrees, could see 17—18 in the sunny spells for southern england and south wales. and we have moderate levels of pollen at their across—the—board but if you suffer from hay fever you will notice the pollen levels will be rising so very high level through tomorrow and into next week in the south. through this evening the showers ease for a time for most of us, still some continuing for wales and central parts of england and more rain
7:19 am
pushing across the north of scotland overnight as well. bridges falling to between 7— 10 degrees as we start sunday morning, a fresh started the day, we still low pressure with us tomorrow, we have also got this frontal system you can see here that is moving in from the north so that will bring more persistent rain tomorrow across enteral and northern scotland and also this front earning some rain to northern ireland, southern scotland as well. claudia dampier but further south across england and wales it will be another day of sunshine and showers, but i think you are showers tomorrow compared to today so they will be more hidden mess and a touch warmer, not as windy and the south is today. —— hit and not as windy and the south is today. —— hitand miss. heading into not as windy and the south is today. —— hit and miss. heading into monday and the theme of sunshine and showers continues, but not as many showers continues, but not as many showers by the time we get to monday, it could be heavy through the central slice of the uk, rather cool across the north and northwest of scotland, but look at those temperatures down towards east anglia and the southeast, the midlands, 20— 21 degrees. fairly
7:20 am
typicalfor midlands, 20— 21 degrees. fairly typical for the midlands, 20— 21 degrees. fairly typicalfor the time of midlands, 20— 21 degrees. fairly typical for the time of year into monday. through the weak high—pressure tries to move on from the atlantic but we have low pressure to the south and the north as well so a bit of a mix really as we head into next week, sunshine, a few scattered showers but the temperatures warmer than they have been over the past few days. back to you charlie. this new photograph of the princess of wales was released as she announced she would be attending today's trooping the colour, to mark king charles' official birthday. it will be catherine's first public appearance since she announced her cancer diagnosis. the princess also released a personal message, saying her treatment is ongoing and will be for a few more months, adding she is "not out of the woods yet". catherine thanked the public for their understanding — and also those who, she said, had bravely shared their stories with her. the last time the princess of wales was seen in public was on christmas day, when she attended a church service with her family. in march she announced that she had
7:21 am
been diagnosed with cancer. our royal correspondent sarah campbell is outside buckingham palace for us in bright sunshine, i can see. we have this very personal and very honest statement from the princess and a very important set piece relevant today. good morning charlie, as you say it is sunny at the moment, will it continue? where not sure. in the statement the princess of wales talked about the fact that there are good days and bad days when you are undergoing cancer treatment and very much everyone hoping this will be one of the good days, because as you say it will be her first public for many months, since before christmas. the usual choreography for trooping the colour, leaving buckingham palace, travelling up the mail, going to horse guards whether military parade carries on for an hour or so and they they return to buckingham palace on —— to stand on

help that is out there that they might not know about and that is the whole point of the vrs, to make sure people get the help they are after. that is 27 pages, can you condense it down so that people listening now can go and... (crosstalk). so essentially it gives you access, it signposts you help for, for example, a water company, what companies are obliged to offer social tariffs which are basically cheaper tariffs to people who might be vulnerable, they might be disabled, they might be on benefits. same with broadband suppliers, same with energy suppliers, so there are cheaper tariffs available for people who qualify for them. but you might not know it. there are also really good things, native financial health checks so they will talk you your finances, make sure your savings if you have any are in the right place, make sure you are getting good deals and there are benefit checks so they will talk you through dwp benefit checks so that if you are entitled to any you get them. i went to speak

us to sign you up to the vrs, they get their permission and go that way. likewise service providers... the word data, i want some reassurance really, because there is a lot of data held in the one place. all the time we are hearing about cyber attacks, etc, so protections of that data, what is in place? it is absolutely paramount. you can imagine holding data particularly vulnerable people, so you talk to the vulnerability registration service and they say that is one of the absolute priorities, because of because it doesn't work if your data gets leaked. that question, to be fair, can be asked of any organisation, how safe is your data? they always say it is safe and they are putting, this isn't a secondary thought for these people, it's an absolute number one priority. it hasn't been hacked yet, but a lot of places haven't been hacked. it is as safe and secure as they can possibly make it because it is so important. you have said all the way through

a host of sporting names were on the king's birthday honours list, with people recognised for their achievements and contributions to sport. cyclist mark cavendish has been awarded a knighthood and former footballer graeme souness a cbe for their sporting achievements and charity work. former england player karen carney has been awarded an obe for her services to football. carney played 144 times for her country, as well as representing great britain at the 2012 olympics. she also won the women's fa cup, five times during her club career. former rangers and scotland striker, ally mccoist has been awarded an obe for his services to football and broadcasting. mccoist won 61 caps for scotland and scored over 250 goals for rangers before going on to manage the club. and cricketer katherine sciver—brunt has been awarded an obe too for her services to women's cricket and the community in yorkshire. sciver—brunt won the women's cricket world cup twice and the women's t20 world cup with england.

she play over 250 times for her country across all formats. rory mcilroy is still in contention at the us open in north carolina. he's no longer leading, as it's now sweden's ludvig aberg who's out in front. but mcilroy is only two shots off the top as he looks to win his first major championship win since 2014. ifelt like i did a pretty good job at keeping some of the mistakes off the scorecard, i wish i had converted a couple more chances, i hit the ball pretty well, i think missed only one fairway. so i had plenty of opportunities and ijust wasn't quite as good with the putter today, but overall still in a great position going into the weekend. in rugby league's super league, a scare for leaders wigan but they survived it at struggling castleford. this try from liam marshall —
7:47 am
his second of the match — saw the warriors come back from 8—4 down in the second half after the tigers had led. the result means wigan go two points clear of st helens at the top of the table. salford ran in four tries as they won 25—14 at warrington, including two from dion cross. they're fifth in the table, now only behind warrington on points difference. and hull kr are third after they beat huddersfield 32—6. that's all for sport. we'll be back with the headlines at 8:00, but now it's time for newswatch. how right is disinformation in the general election campaign? welcome to newswatch with me, samira ahmed. ——rife coming up, how fake ai generated clips are being created from interviews like this and spread on social media to discredit

politicians. and anew is what you are told us how a news item about the death of a girl aloud singer might have saved her life. there has been a blizzard of activity in the general election campaign over the past few days including televised debates a sitdown interviews with the party leaders and a host of manifesto launches. friday of last week saw the first bbc debate with representatives of the seven major parties in great britain being questioned by members of the audience and presenter michelle hussein. viewer roger sent us his verdict. �* . hussein. viewer roger sent us his verdict. �* , ., ., hussein. viewer roger sent us his verdict. �*, ., ., ., verdict. let's go to our next question — verdict. let's go to our next question from _ verdict. let's go to our next question from suzanne... i verdict. let's go to our next i question from suzanne... my verdict. let's go to our next _ question from suzanne. .. my husband question from suzanne... my husband and i both work, _ question from suzanne... my husband and i both work, we _ question from suzanne... my husband and i both work, we have _ question from suzanne... my husband and i both work, we have good - and i both work, we have good jobsm — and i both work, we have good jobsm i— and i both work, we have good 'obs. .. 9. and i both work, we have good 'obs. .. ., ., and i both work, we have good 'obs... ., ., ., , jobs... i had to say i have been very disappointed _ jobs... i had to say i have been very disappointed in _ jobs... i had to say i have been very disappointed in the - jobs... i had to say i have beeni very disappointed in the quality of the election debates i have viewed so far. and i think the main problem

we sought an answer from bbc news we sought an answer from bbc news and they told us: the number of competing and contested claims being made by politicians during this election campaign makes it hard to work out what is accurate. thatjob is made considerably harder by the phenomenon of fake videos, images" being circulated online. take for instance this appearance by labour's

7:52 am
created profiles for 24 fictional voters based on data and analysis by the national centre for social measurement on sites such as x and tiktok. they represent a range of voters in key constituencies across the uk and the aim is to provide an insight into what content is promoted online to different groups of people. marianna spring joined us now to explain more, welcome back to news watch. how do these undercover voter profiles work? like news watch. how do these undercover voter profiles work?— voter profiles work? like you say these are 24 _ voter profiles work? like you say these are 24 fictional _ voter profiles work? like you say these are 24 fictional characters| these are 24 fictional characters and i designed them based on extensive data and analysis that the national centre for social research had done so what they did was provide a typology of different types of british voters and also identified eight key battleground constituencies where those voters could exist, so there are three characters living virtually in eight of the different constituencies. and once i had created a character, look at the kinds of things they might be interested in following, liking, viewing on social media, i was then able to set up their social media profiles across the five main site
7:53 am
so x, tiktok, facebook, instagram and youtube. and that is the goal of these undercover voters is not to act as a polling device or anything like that, it is actually as a social media investigating tool essentially, because it is one of the only ways of interrogating what the only ways of interrogating what the social media sites plea was algorithms, computer—generated systems, are recommending to different types of people and it is worth saying that all of these profiles are entirely private, they don't have any real friends, they don't have any real friends, they don't post content, all they do is passively consume posts online so that it means watching, viewing, liking, following very popular content so they are not affecting other people's feeds. and it is important because essentially it is one of the only ways we can really see up close the subjective online world that different individuals will be exposed to. you world that different individuals will be exposed to.— world that different individuals will be exposed to. you have 24 telephones- _ will be exposed to. you have 24 telephones. 24 _ will be exposed to. you have 24 telephones. 24 old _ will be exposed to. you have 24 telephones. 24 old iphones - will be exposed to. you have 24 i telephones. 24 old iphones which have been set _ telephones. 24 old iphones which have been set up _ telephones. 24 old iphones which have been set up so _ telephones. 24 old iphones which have been set up so i _ telephones. 24 old iphones which have been set up so i have - telephones. 24 old iphones which have been set up so i have this i have been set up so i have this massive bag with all my iphones and the reason they are on separate phones is because it allows them, it allows me to avoid the cross
7:54 am
contamination. so if i was trying to log in and out of the profiles and out of the profiles on one phone, not only would it be time—consuming but also what different accounts like and follows could impact other profiles. so it is quite a good way of also separating out of my own head because it is a lot of alter egos to be running all at once. itote egos to be running all at once. we showed a couple of examples in of real videos that had then been used to generate fake ones. the fake clip of webb's treating, how was that circulated and spread? that popped u i circulated and spread? that popped u- on circulated and spread? that popped up on some — circulated and spread? that popped up on some of _ circulated and spread? that popped up on some of my _ circulated and spread? that popped up on some of my undercover- circulated and spread? that popped| up on some of my undercover voters feeds based in halifax, i saw this clip and it falsely suggested wes streeting had called fellow labour politician diane abbott a silly woman, it never happened. the thing that struck me was notjust that woman, it never happened. the thing that struck me was not just that the video had been doctored but the way that other related accounts will end “p that other related accounts will end up going down in the comments to give the impression that the clip was real, so falsely suggesting they had worked in the programme or asking whether the clip was true, and this felt like an evolution in the tactics i have been seeing. it
7:55 am
wasn't like someone was showing the clip and admitting it was satirical or a joke, they were actively trying to push the idea that it could be real. and the most concerning thing was actual real people, the people who were seeing this clip and commenting, hang on a second, is this real? what is going on here. and what i started to notice was that it was notjust and what i started to notice was that it was not just this fake clip of wes streeting but several others including a labour called luke akehurst, also of keir starmer and of nigel farage, who is the head of reform uk, they were being shared by the same group of accounts of this network of accounts were posting these clips, some admittedly more satirical than others, and then doubling down in the comments. {line doubling down in the comments. one ofthe doubling down in the comments. one of the other— doubling down in the comments. one of the other ones we showed was rishi sunak being made to say things he didn't actually say, tell us about that. i he didn't actually say, tell us about that.— he didn't actually say, tell us about that. ., ., ~ , ._ ., about that. i looked up the way that tiktok has been _ about that. i looked up the way that tiktok has been recommending - tiktok has been recommending different types of content, especially to younger voters and younger undercover voters, and some of the content was misleading, mischaracterising comments or ai generated like you said. this clip
7:56 am
of rishi sunak which starts off by saying he is proper gutted which is perhaps not a phrase he uses that often, and then goes on to make claims about how we are spending public money and which are contrary to some of the evidence available. the problem is some of these clips are obviously satirical but there are obviously satirical but there are others that are causing confusion and using users in the comments saying hold on a second, is this real? what's going on here, and thatis this real? what's going on here, and that is the difficulty. where do you draw the line between obvious satire and parody and then when it actually affects real voters, which are younger voters who for the first time are perhaps engaging in politics, and tiktok, we know if we look at some of the data from ofcom, the media regulator, is a place where people in their teenagers years and 20s are turning to. the way it will affect voters is most likely not one single post changing anyone's mind but a pattern of posts and particular narratives that could affect what people think. you don't realise it until you are running 24 fictional characters clip on social media profiles but we are getting

correspondent hannah miller. what have we learned so far and what should we expect in the final weeks? three weeks to go and we are about halfway through now. labour consistently miles ahead in the polls throughout this campaign. i think we are expecting keir starmer to start campaigning in some seats that might be seen as being a bit more ambitious, really, for the labour party to wind. it has been going well for them. the party seems broadly happy with where things are at, but kassam has faced some challenging questions about what he really stands for, and whether he has changed his plans, and things that he stood for when he wanted to be leader, compared to what he is standing for now. this is why he says he has made some of those decisions. we says he has made some of those decisions. 9 9. says he has made some of those decisions. 9 ., ., says he has made some of those decisions-— decisions. we had to change the labour party. — decisions. we had to change the labour party, and _ decisions. we had to change the labour party, and drag - decisions. we had to change the labour party, and drag it - decisions. we had to change the labour party, and drag it closer| decisions. we had to change the i labour party, and drag it closer to the country — labour party, and drag it closer to the country. and i did that, having fought— the country. and i did that, having fought a _

8:11 am
hannah, thank you. we were talking about new year's honours a moment ago and that's about recognising people who don't normally get recognised. this is another of those kind of stories. 50 years ago, hazel davies started working as a lollipop lady saying it would only be a temporary job, but she's still doing it today. to mark five decades of work, hazel was given a surprise celebration by children at her local school in cardiff. she has become renowned in her community for her "safe journey home" motto and in 2015 was awarded the british empire medal for her crossing patrol services. one of those jobs, one of thosejobs, sarah, that people do in whatever weather. yes, absolutely. as we head through the weekend you may want to be prepared for all types of weather. we have got some sunshine, we have got some really heavy downpours and thunderstorms in the forecast as
8:12 am
well. this is the picture in pembrokeshire. we've had really heavy downpours over the past few hours. clearing through now, and really through the course of the weekend that will be the story. it is going to be sunshine one minute, heavy downpours and thunderstorms the next. and a rather cool feel. some people have had their heating on over the past week. temperatures are below where we would expect for this stage injune. but when you do see the sometime coming through, it is strong so it will feel warm in between these showers that will rotate around the area of low pressure. quite a windy day in the south, particularly through the english channel, parts of south—east england, and the northern isles will be quite breezy. light up wins in between. you have a rash of showers developing, they will be slow moving through scotland, northern england and sundry. further south, the showers will rattle through on the brisk south—westerly wind. temperatures below average, the mid—teens for most of us. 14—16 in
8:13 am
the north, 17 or 18 in the south. it will feel cooler when you add on the strength of the breeze. moderate levels of pollen today for most of us, but as we head through the next few days, pollen levels are going to creep up to very high in parts of england and wales in particular. this evening and overnight, most of the showers ease and more persistent rain will work across the northern half of scotland through the night. some clear spells and that will let temperatures drop to about 7—10 c in towns and cities, but cooler in rural spots. towns and cities, but cooler in ruralspots. so towns and cities, but cooler in rural spots. so a fresh start to sunday but low pressure still with us. some weather fronts sunday but low pressure still with us. some weatherfronts pushing in from the north, and that will bring more cloud and rain across parts of northern and central scotland. parts of northern ireland, and southern scotland also seeing rain developing. england and wales tomorrow, another day of sunshine and showers, but more emphasis on the sunshine and clear showers, so more hit and miss. particular towards the west where there should be dry weather developing. 18 for
8:14 am
most of us, possibly 20 in the south—east. cooler where you are under the cloud and with the rain across the northern half of scotland. monday, and we still have showers and sunshine but an improvement by this stage. if you are showers scattered around and still quite cool. 21 towards the south. that will feel warmer with a bit more sunshine as well. high pressures tries to squeeze in from the atlantic for the first part of the atlantic for the first part of the week but low pressure is still to the south and north of the uk. although we may well see a window of something drier and more settled, there will also be some showers lingering through next week. temperatures, particular towards the south, will be a few degrees warmer than we have seen recently. euros have started, but it was a
8:15 am
difficult night for scotland. the team suffered a bruising 5—1 defeat to hosts germany in the opening match of the tournament. john watson's in munich this morning. john, not a great start for scotland, what's the atmosphere like there? yes, it is a case of the morning after the night before. good morning from munich on what was, as you say, a sobering night for those scotland fans. the worst possible start to their european championship. those fans arriving with great hope and great expectation. they created that party atmosphere, but all that excitement was soon extinguished when they went 2—0 down inside the first 20 minutes, ultimately losing 5-1 to first 20 minutes, ultimately losing 5—1 to hosts, germany, the biggest ever defeat in the opening match of a european championship. they'd lost all hope and it was only half—time, shell—shocked scotland fans watching the team being handed a footballing lesson by a rampant germany.
8:16 am
commentator: germany five, scotland one. - by the end they'd suffered the heaviest defeat at a major tournament in 70 years. scotland's euros off to the worst possible start. they never turned up tonight. end of story. germany could have gone a reserve team tonight and still beaten scotland. i think we expected that. we didn't expect to win, but we got a goal, so it was ok. this was a free game, it was a free game, you know what i mean? first game of the tournament, germany's home. come on. be good one time. just one time for me, for me! germany may not be the footballing force they once were, but if they were feeling the pressure it didn't show. within ten minutes florian wirtz getting the tournament off to the perfect start. shortly after, fellow youngster jamal musiala extending the hosts' lead. good feet, 2—0. scotland being handed a reality check. but at a time when they needed cool
8:17 am
heads, what they got was a moment of recklessness. after angus gunn had saved well, ryan porteous lunged at ilkay gundogan. it looked bad and the var agreed. a red card duly followed before kai havertz completed a first half to forget for the chastened visitors. germany in dreamland. for scotland, this was now about damage limitation. goodness me, what a finish that is. but they could do nothing about niclas fullkrug's ferocious shot. gunn given no chance, germany four up and in total control. the visiting fans could at least share a late goal, albeit if the last touch came off a german defender. a goal off ruediger here. but the hosts weren't finished. emre can with a fifth. scotland's humiliation complete. scotland arrived here with genuine hopes of reaching the knockout stage of a major tournament for the first time in their history, but having been humbled by their hosts they must regroup quickly if their stay

here as not to be a short one. dan roan, bbc news, munich. yesterday this square was a sea of blue and tartan, but today is very different because it is a traditional german festival and a reminder that the day certainly belonged to germany yesterday, who have kicked off their tournament in some style with that victory over scotland yesterday. so, what did the fans make of it? frankie and stuart have joined us here fans make of it? frankie and stuart havejoined us here this morning. frankly, i guess bitterly disappointed?— frankly, i guess bitterly disappointed? frankly, i guess bitterly disattointed? , , ., disappointed? oh, yes. you hoped the would disappointed? oh, yes. you hoped they would bounce _ disappointed? oh, yes. you hoped they would bounce back. _ disappointed? oh, yes. you hoped they would bounce back. the - disappointed? oh, yes. you hoped| they would bounce back. the game disappointed? oh, yes. you hoped - they would bounce back. the game was brilliant. just they would bounce back. the game was brilliant. , . 9. they would bounce back. the game was brilliant. . , ., ., brilliant. just great for the memories. _ brilliant. just great for the memories. this _ brilliant. just great for the memories. this was - brilliant. just great for the memories. this was your | brilliant. just great for the i memories. this was your first brilliant. just great for the - memories. this was your first ever game? memories. this was your first ever atme? . i memories. this was your first ever game? yes. i imagine very special to be here for— game? yes. i imagine very special to

8:21 am
is strong chance they could progress from this group. john, i'm not sure if you can hear us because it is loud there. your be a march in france, they seem a friendly cloud. might they allow you to try on one of their hats? i am rather drawn to the plumage. his face! it is fetching _ rather drawn to the plumage. his face! it is fetching attire. - rather drawn to the plumage. his face! it is fetching attire. we - rather drawn to the plumage. his face! it is fetching attire. we had i face! it is fetching attire. we had tartan kilts _ face! it is fetching attire. we had tartan kilts yesterday, _ face! it is fetching attire. we had tartan kilts yesterday, and - face! it is fetching attire. we had tartan kilts yesterday, and now i tartan kilts yesterday, and now traditional bavarian dress. as you can probably see here, some of them are armed and dangerous so probably it's fortunate for me that it was a german wind yesterday. john, well dodged on the hat wearing front. yes, do take care and don't upset them. see you later. that was a good dodge. it upset them. see you later. that was a good dodge. it was a good dodte. the that was a good dodge. it was a good dodge. the atmosphere, _ that was a good dodge. it was a good dodge. the atmosphere, you - that was a good dodge. it was a good dodge. the atmosphere, you know, i that was a good dodge. it was a good i dodge. the atmosphere, you know, you have to feel for the scotland fans.
8:22 am
what we saw yesterday and i'm sure even today, they were enjoying the moment. sandwiches, wraps and salads found in major uk supermarkets are being recalled because of a possible contamination with e.coli. the bacteria has not been detected in the items, but at least 60 types of product are being removed as a precaution. our health correspondent jim reed has the latest. a recall of this size is unusual. almost every major supermarket chain is removing products from its shelves as the hunt for the source of this outbreak continues. e.coli is a bacterial infection which can cause stomach cramps, sickness and fever. genetic tests show the 211 cases confirmed so far are all linked in some way. to date, there have been 147 cases in england, 27 in wales, 35 in scotland and two in northern ireland, though it's thought those infections were acquired in england. in total, at least 67 people have needed hospital treatment.
8:23 am
if you have really painful stomach ache or bloody diarrhoea, those are the things that should ring the alarm bells, seek medical advice. investigators say they've narrowed down the cause of the infection to a type of lettuce leaf and are working to identify the supplier orfarm involved. two food manufacturers have already withdrawn products which may contain the same leaf, while a third company could be added as soon as today. none of the items have tested positive for e.coli but retailers have been asked to remove them from sale as a precaution. the products named so far include 60 different types of premade sandwiches, wraps and salads. most are own—label products sold by chains such as tesco, sainsbury�*s, asda and morrisons as well as boots and aldi. a full list is on the bbc website. supermarkets are asking shoppers who've bought any of the infected products not to eat them, but to return them to a store where they'll be given a full refund.
8:24 am
we're joined now by dr sarah pitt, biomedical scientist and virologist at the university of brighton. good morning to you. thank you for your company. we should talk about what e. coli actually is, really, so how does it affect us?— how does it affect us? yes, it is a bacteria that _ how does it affect us? yes, it is a bacteria that normally _ how does it affect us? yes, it is a bacteria that normally lives, - how does it affect us? yes, it is a | bacteria that normally lives, some people carry some strains of it and it could normally live in your gut. it is found in soil, in contaminated water, but it does cause diarrhoea in some people. we have looked at e. coli and we have talked about it quite a lot because of the water contamination and it is used as a marker of contamination in water because it is quite common in people 's faeces. this one is not a normal
8:25 am
strain, this produces a toxin and thatis strain, this produces a toxin and that is actually what is making people so ill. this is not the normal strain of e. coli. i must stress that, it is a different one. who is most at risk? being ill is inconvenient, of course, and having stomach problems, but some sections of society will be more at risk. yes, that's right. it is one of these things which most people will be fine. it will be unpleasant and they might be ill for a few days, but normally it is young children, children under the age of five, and also people with underlying conditions that affect their immune system, and also the very elderly. those are the people that are most at risk. partly because if you get a lot of diarrhoea you are losing a lot of diarrhoea you are losing a lot of diarrhoea you are losing a lot of fluid and it is quite difficult to keep young children and very old people fully hydrated, whereas if it is a normal healthy adults, you canjust try whereas if it is a normal healthy adults, you can just try to take
8:26 am
sips of water every now and again. in some cases, that can lead to more serious illness and we have seen that with some people in hospital. good morning. you are a virologist, and that is your expertise and you are not a public health expert, but people listening to you this morning will be asking themselves that question, about what product is it ok to eat. we have gone through some of the detail on that but can you give us your sense of what precautions people can take? yes, obviously it — precautions people can take? yes, obviously it is _ precautions people can take? yes, obviously it is taking _ precautions people can take? yes, obviously it is taking a _ precautions people can take? t9: obviously it is taking a bit of time to get to the bottom of what is happening. one of the problems is that it takes a day or two for people to develop symptoms. then most people have diarrhoea and think nothing of it, but some people a bit later on will become more seriously ill and they are the ones that will go to the doctor. they are the ones having the test and that is how we
8:27 am
found this special toxin producing type of bacteria. and that is taking some time, a week or ten days. then you are asking people to say what they were eating ten days ago, said they were eating ten days ago, said the public health people have been working very hard to actually get all of that information together. the advice at the moment i would give would be washed fruit and vegetables very, very thoroughly before you eat them, even if you are buying bad salad in the supermarkets which said it has been prewashed, i suggest washing that again at home before you eat it. just be careful and cautious about what you do eat, particularly if you have people in your family, particularly if you have people in yourfamily, or in your social contact group, who have very young children or are elderly. what can happen is that if you develop that diarrhoea you might be a bit ill for some time but you could pass it on to other people in your household, or in your contact group. so it is being cautious about your own health
8:28 am
as well. if you do have diarrhoea, tried to be careful about who you... washed your hands and be cattle about your own health and hygiene, but also perhaps don't visit that person you are thinking of visiting, just in case. i’m person you are thinking of visiting, just in case-— just in case. i'm 'ust a brief word, treatment _ just in case. i'm 'ust a brief word, treatment if— just in case. i'm 'ust a brief word, treatment if you— just in case. i'm just a brief word, treatment if you do _ just in case. i'm just a brief word, treatment if you do have - just in case. i'm just a brief word, treatment if you do have it - just in case. i'm just a brief word, treatment if you do have it and i just in case. i'm just a brief word, i treatment if you do have it and you do have those symptoms? yes. treatment if you do have it and you do have those symptoms? yes, there is no specific — do have those symptoms? yes, there is no specific treatment _ do have those symptoms? yes, there is no specific treatment for _ do have those symptoms? yes, there is no specific treatment for it. - is no specific treatment for it. although it is a bacteria and microbiologist always say if it is a virus you don't need antibiotics but if it is a bacteria you do, in this case the evidence suggests an antibiotic and make it worse. the only thing you can do is look after yourself, making sure that you keep drinking plenty of fluids and eating whatever you can, just eating reasonably healthy bland diet while the diarrhoea passes through. if you are at all worried about your child or yourself, are at all worried about your child oryourself, if are at all worried about your child or yourself, if you start seeing blood in your diarrhoea, that would be the point to seek medical help.
8:29 am
go to the doctor. or go to the hospital. they will actually give you specific treatment for the symptoms. we don't actually treat the bacteria itself, we treat the symptoms that you are exhibiting, as and when they come up. it’s symptoms that you are exhibiting, as and when they come up.— and when they come up. it's an important _ and when they come up. it's an important thing _ and when they come up. it's an important thing to _ and when they come up. it's an important thing to talk- and when they come up. it's an important thing to talk about i and when they come up. it's an i important thing to talk about this morning, just in case. virologist at the university of brighton, fellow institute of biomedical science, thank you for your time this morning. thank you for your time this morning-— he led the campaign to expose the post office horizon it scandal and became one of the key figures in the fight for justice for hundreds of sub—postmasters. now alan bates has received a knighthood in the king's birthday honours, for his years of tireless work. emma simpson has been to speak with him. a warning — this report contains some flashing images. alan bates, congratulations.
8:30 am
thank you. what was your reaction when you found out? it was all a bit of a surprise. it was a bit out of the blue. and, also, the time it was given. i think i received it on the lunchtime of the first day of paula vennells being at the enquiry, had a look at my emails and it was there. i thought "this is weird." is this a wind—up? yeah. to me the things are just say no. but there are a lot of people who want me to have something and i think the paperwork said they wanted to know by end of that day whether i was prepared to accept it. so it was all a bit of a rush, but a very pleasant surprise all the same. what does this knighthood mean for you? well, i think it's another string to my bow to try and drive the rest of the campaign home for the group.
8:31 am
we've got to get the funding for everybody, and that's been my priority now for some time. and if it helps there, then great. that's wonderful. you turned down an obe, didn't you? why? i turned down an obe at that time because i felt it was inappropriate. i mean, paula vennells was holding the cbe for her services to post office and i felt it would have been such an insult to the group to accept something like that. and a lot of people applauded me for doing that at that time. the last time we sat down and had a chat like this, the tv drama was about to air and you spoke about how you hoped it would have an impact. it did that, didn't it? it's been an incredible six months. it certainly woke the nation up to what had been going on.
8:32 am
paula vennells has got the cbe. you're joking! we are fighting a war against an enemy owned by the british government, while we're just skint little people. they've been really supportive and they've shown it in so many ways. i get hundreds of e—mails from all over the country and letters and cards and all sorts there and, i mean, i think it's also great for individuals in the group, because it's explained what happened to them and what they've been through. i haven't got that money and i don't know where it's gone! but you're not finished, though, are you? no, it's not finished by a long way. we've still got to obtain monies for the groups in there, got to make sure they're resolved at the end of the day. i mean, that's still
8:33 am
causing a big problem. it's still tied up in bureaucracy and we can't seem to get through it, no matter what we do. you still haven't got your compensation sorted, have you? no, no. my compensation's not resolved yet either. as well as fighting everyone else's battle, i'm still fighting mine as well. i mean, ijust don't know. there is always the potential that we may finish up back in court if that's what it takes to resolve it, at the end of the day. i was going to say, what's the next step? the next step definitely for us is to return to the courts again. and this time, i think we can raise the funding, i think the nation will support us if we have to go ahead with another case. have you ever thought ofjust giving up, letting it go? i could never do that. notjust for my own sake, but i couldn't do it for everyone else's sake. we've all seen the horror stories, or all heard the horror stories of people, and there are so many, and i keep hearing from so many more
8:34 am
these days who are coming out of the woodwork and stories that have never been told. i mean, they are absolutely — it's diabolical what has happened to people. it's very, very sad. you've spent, i think, more than 20 years now devoting all your time to this campaign, to fight forjustice. what's been the high point? was it that high court victory? i think thejudgements were certainly a big turning point. and it's a comment i often take is that i think at that point we broke post office's control of the narrative, which they'd had for many, many years and which they used to do all sorts of things — to influence mps, to influence the media and all the rest of it, but those judgements certainly broke that and that enabled us then to move forward. what's been the hardest bit of it all? it's been such a long road for you. i think the hardest thing would have been to put it down.
8:35 am
i mean, you just couldn't put something like this down. and, in fairness, it's always been one day after the next and you never know what the following day's going to bring, but it normally brings another victim to light, and so if you needed encouragement to carry on, it's there. this is the best unpaid job i've ever had. it's certainly the longest! but, erm... have you had a day off? i'm looking forward to a day off. there's a rumour i'm having a holiday shortly, so i'm looking forward to that. how are you going to celebrate? i don't know. probably a cup of tea, slice of cake, the usual way. steady! laughter that is such a well deserved award. like they all are. alan bates and a slice of cake, a cup of tea, what a nice way to celebrate! good morning, mike. we've been talking about scotland is not celebrating, of course. at the
8:36 am

have witnessed some pretty sad and horrible stuff, but this just punched me on the nose. then when i met isla and her stoicism and courage and bravery, she is more concern for other people than herself and her life is a grain from waking up to going to sleep, it is aground. maybe four or five times a week as she goes through the process of changing her bandages —— grind. she is on drugs like fentanyl, serious drugs for anyone to be taking. so you would have to see it first—hand to fully understand what these poor children go through. we have seen how it has changed you. i have seen how it has changed you. i have six kids. when i talk about it, i do get emotional and i make no apologies. when you witness these children going through what they go through, you automatically think of your own kids and how tough their lives are. it your own kids and how tough their
