6:02 am
as a surprise to many, including in his own party. now, the gambling commission says it's investigating possible offences relating to bets placed on the timing of the election. the use of insider information for an unfair advantage when betting can be a criminal offence. one of those being looked into by the watchdog is laura saunders. she has worked for the tories since 2015 and is being investigated for a bet she allegedly placed, although it's not known when or for how much money. miss saunders has not yet commented on the claims. hello, mr williams. last week, another conservative candidate and a former aide to the prime minister, craig williams, apologised and said he had made a huge error ofjudgment after allegations he had placed a £100 bet on a july election three days before it was called. a conservative party spokesman told the bbc. "we have been contacted by the gambling commission about a small number of individuals. as the gambling commission is an independent body, it wouldn't be proper to comment further until any
6:03 am
process is concluded." these revelations come as a separate incident in which a police officer in the prime minister's close protection team was suspended and later arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office over alleged bets they made. the matter has also been referred to the independent office for police conduct. with just two weeks to go until polling day, it seems july the 4th is a date which is still causing controversy for the conservative party. harry farley, bbc news, in westminster. and for a full list of candidates standing in all constituencies in this election, you can visit the bbc website. our chief political correspondent, henry zeffman, is in york, where the leaders of the uk's four biggest parties will appear on bbc�*s question time later. henry, beautiful view there. henry, beautifulview there. i wonder how pleasant the interactions will be later.

6:05 am
not been suspended from the party, are his professional standards are lower than the metropolitan police's? that might be a question he faces. also a difficult day for him because of the bowls. they suggested the conservatives would notjust lose if the election was tomorrow, but would be almost wiped out. that will be concerning conservatives. that is where a lot of people think the stakes in the race are at the moment but do not underestimate the ability of a live audience to shake it up.— and fiona bruce will be hosting a special edition of question time this evening. the leaders of the uk's four biggest political parties will answer questions from the audience during the two—hour programme. it will be on bbc one and iplayerfrom 8pm.

roger, there are no developments, really concerning story, you feel for the family of a young man who has not been seen for sometime. jay slater. the young man missing on tenerife. the mother of a british teenager who's gone missing in tenerife has revealed it was his first holiday away with friends. 19—year—old jay slater flew to the island for a music festival, but has not been seen for three days. our reporter louisa pilbeam has the latest. jay slater hasn't been seen since monday. this video was posted on social media the day before he vanished, having fun with friends on his first holiday without his family. a desperate search using drones and dogs has been under way in this mountainous region in the northwest of the island, where he's believed to have last been. the days are hot and the nights get very cold.
6:07 am
from the point of view of the residents, it has been remarkable because the way this has blown up across social media and in the press, it has been overwhelming for everyone. the expat residents have jumped on board and are offering rental cars, lifts to the area where the search is taking place. jay spent the weekend at a music festival. after meeting people on sunday night, he headed to the far northwest of the island to stay with them and hasn't been seen since. a friend said jay called her on monday, saying he was going to walk the ten—hour trek back to the south of the island. but the call was cut off when his battery ran out. jay was wearing this grey t—shirt with green on the shoulders when he disappeared. jay's mum has now flown to the island to help with the search. she's described the situation as traumatic and horrendous, and says her son is a great person

6:12 am
summer months are still ahead. it is not all doom and gloom. and for the summer solstice, this is the view in shetland. we have roughlyjust under 19 hours of daylight through today. the sun will set after 10.30 this evening. a fine start here. some cloud today but most will see sunshine. some exceptions and exceptions as well to the dry story. in northern ireland and central and southern scotland, thicker cloud. a weather front producing some hill fog and light rain in the next few hours but either side, starting dry. hi cloud, so the sunshine muted in places. the chance of a shower in the far south—west later. and the chance of rain edging back northwards to central scotland in the afternoon. northern ireland will
6:13 am
brighten up. the wind is light so when you are in the sunshine, it will feel warm. 22—23 in the south—east corner but the downside is pollen levels are high if not very high across most parts. tonight, dry to begin but rain clips northern ireland and spreads to northern and western scotland. elsewhere, we noticed temperatures up elsewhere, we noticed temperatures up on recent nights. a fresh start this morning in parts of england and wales. but the outlook is warming. rain in the west on friday. showers on saturday. other than that, a lot of dry weather. and the temperatures climbing. a warmer spell potentially for many. more comfortable than in other parts of the world. we have some extreme weather right now. irate some extreme weather right now. we will talk about that. looking more at extreme weather now and wildfires are burning
6:14 am
out of control in parts of the united states, as the country endures record—breaking temperatures. thousands of residents have fled their homes in new mexico and california, while, in stark contrast, texas has been hit by a tropical storm. our correspondent will grant has the latest. awe—inspiring, but deadly. a towering wall of flames and heat bearing down on the town of ruidoso in new mexico has overwhelmed local fire crews and forced residents to flee — most just thankful to leave with their lives, but shaken. frank and connie lawyer, both 83, are sheltering in an evacuation centre, lucky to have made it out at all. we could see the smoke change and we were engulfed in smoke. that scared me to death. i don't know whether we're going to have a home. there are several people in that area just above us that lost their home.
6:15 am
in california, these are now all too familiar scenes — hillsides ablaze, thousands of hectares lost as tinder—dry brush catches alight, and firefighters struggling to bring around a dozen separate blazes under control. it is devastating, especially when you get these wind—driven fires and you have all this unburnt fuel combined with low relative humidity. it can create massive damage. as californians endure another season of rampant wildfires, warnings over extreme weather are in place across the country — from heat waves in the northeast to a tropical storm in texas. a nation experiencing the real—time effects of climate change. and this is just the start. experts say this has been an unusually early and aggressive fire season, with several months of hot, dry weather ahead. the contrast with the scene in texas couldn't be starker. the first tropical storm of the hurricane season in the gulf of mexico has caused flooding in galveston, as well as in mexico itself, as north america braces
6:16 am
itself for more extreme weather to come. will grant, bbc news, southern california. india is also suffering a brutal heatwave, with temperatures soaring above a0 degrees celsius in the north of the country. our south asia correspondent, samira hussain, is in the capital delhi. good morning. it looks wonderful where you are, but it is simply too hot and it becomes dangerous. absolutely. right now it is a balmy 36 celsius in the capital and it is only about 10.45 in the morning. so as the day progresses it will get hotter and hotter. on average, here in the capital, we have seen the temperatures have been about 68 celsius, warmer than they normally
6:17 am
are for this time of year. there have been record—breaking temperatures and last night was one of the hottest nights seen on record for several years. of the hottest nights seen on record forseveralyears. it of the hottest nights seen on record for several years. it tells you that when you see the peak temperatures during the day, you do not get the respite in the evening. it is monsoon season. it is starting in some parts of the country but officials, actually they say the monsoon season has not been good so far with 20% less rain. the temperatures are so hot, the ground so dry. when it does rain, there is worry about flooding. the heat itself even in the capital is having an impact on so many, especially those working outside, deliverers, migrant labourers who depend on their wages by working outside in construction. i was at a government hospital yesterday and even
6:18 am
yesterday they said, in that day, they had five deaths related to heatstroke.— let's take a look at today's papers. the guardian has an image of russian president vladimir putin walking down a red carpet alongside north korea's kimjong—un. the paper reports on a pact between the two leaders that requires both countries to come to each other�*s aid if either is attacked — a move that has caused alarm in the west. the front page of the times reports on a scientific experiment that has found working from home makes staff happier but it does not make them more efficent. more than 1,600 employees from a chinese technology company took part in the two—year study. foothall. that is in lots of the papers.
6:19 am
harry kane dominates the front of the daily mirror. england will qualify for the last—16 of the euros with one game to spare if they defeat denmark later. the paper says 50,000 fans will be in germany to roar on the three lions. royal mail is launching a new set of stamps to mark the 60th display season of the red arrows. that image neverfails. i have never seen that. it never fails to impress. the main set of eight stamps have images of their trademark red, white and blue trails. four stamps showcase their performances above famous landmarks, including the eiffel tower and egyptian pyramids. fantastic. a lot of people love the red arrows. always makes an occasion all the more... spectacular. it feels great. the bank of england will release its latest decision on interest rates at midday — and it's expected to remain
6:20 am
unchanged at 5.25%. ben has all the details. a lot of people will be disappointed to hear it is not coming down. we will get confirmation later but you are right. one of the single biggest thing is that effects the finances of millions of households. yesterday i was in a market and people said price rises have slowed but it is the mortgage, borrowing costs that are squeezing finances. we will find out today at 12. that rate directly affects borrowing costs, so mortgage holders and first—time buyers will be watching very closely. so how did we get here? the bank raised its rate to 5.25% in august last year. that's the highest it's been for 16 years. and it hasn't budged since then.
6:21 am
the bank has been under pressure to reduce that rate — which would lower mortgage rates for those renewing their deals or buying for the first time. the rate went up as the bank of england fought to bring down inflation. the rate at which prices increase. we heard yesterday that this had fallen to 2% — exactly the bank of england's target. but is that enough to bring rates down later this afternoon? economists say not yet. good news to the holders of the 1.6 million fixed—rate mortgages whose deals end this year. they'll be hoping for a movement in the base rate which then prompts banks to beginning lowering the mortgage rates they can offer. because at the moment, the average rate offered on a five—year fixed mortgage is 5.04% — up from 2.42% five years ago. and the pain of those higher rates
6:22 am
is being felt by those who've had to renew in the last 18 months — often to much higher cost deals than they were on before. debt charity stepchange says the average mortgage arrears for their clients now stands atjust over £6,000 — that's doubled since 2019. so what about those who are looking to buy their first home? many are put off by current rates and are delaying buying a house, just like james in coventry, who we went to see. ok, so it's four bedrooms. this is the main bedroom. finding the right home, well, that can be hard enough, but finding the right mortgage has become even harder. ok, this is the bathroom with a double shower cubicle. oh, that looks great. rising interest rates have made them unaffordable for many. just askjames, a first—time buyer. definitely had to make some cutbacks, as a couple, and look at our kind of financial plan to see if we can afford the mortgage. with the rates being high,
6:23 am
we've had to save for, effectively, another year to come into line with that. it's also understanding, yeah, the term of the mortgage, you know, from looking at it, is now 30 years long, which is going to put me into retirement age, which then i now have to think about my pension, my retirement planning, as well. my retirement planning, as well, with all buying a house. and james isn't the only one putting off the decision. at this estate agent in coventry, demand has slowed. it isn't really the market it has ever been. if you've been an agent, in my opinion, in the last ten or 15 years, you won't have seen this before. there's lots of sort of intangibles that people might be waiting for, but, in my opinion, if you need to move, then you need to move. you've just got to make the best of the circumstances that you're in at that time. so when might we see cheaper mortgage deals becoming available? even though the interest rate, the bank of england base rate, is at 5.25%, the average mortgage rate is around 4.8, 4.9.
6:24 am
so it does tell us that it should get better in the near future. and the banks are suggesting that it should get better in the next two years. but, ultimately, yeah, it's all still a bit up in the air. economists warn any change to the interest rates will be a slow process. so higher housing costs are here to stay — for now, at least. so it is unlikely we will see the bank put up borrowing —— deal with borrowing costs. but the bank might be concerned at the high rate wages are rising and price rises have not slowed as much in the services sector, the biggest part of the economy covering travel, restaurants hotels and so on. we will wait. confirmation from the bank of england on that decision at 12 today.
6:25 am
time to get the news, travel and weather where you are. hello, good morning. let's get your london news now, with me, frankie mccamley. taylor swift fans heading to wembley stadium for her eras tour are being targeted by suspected scammers on airbnb. some new profiles have been set up on the holiday rental website advertising properties surrounding wembley stadium using ai and stock images. brent council is urging fans to report scams if they spot them. there's such an audience here of people who are desperate to stay in the area or get a ticket for the concert if they haven't been able to do so through the normal channels. so you can see why it's a prime focus for fraudulent activity.
6:26 am
but we are absolutely relentless in trying to seek this out and stop it where we can. in response, airbnb has said it has "zero tolerance for fake listings" and the four properties bbc london flagged to the site, "have been removed." the uk's largest new film and tv studio has now fully opened near reading. shinfield studios has been built on land just south of the m4 and has 18 sound stages as well as workshops, offices and a nine—acre filming backlot. which has already been used for productions including the latest star wars spin—off tv series. we were are able to accommodate about four fairly large feature films at any one point. now the employment potential with four films at any one point is quite significant. you know, an average—sized feature will employ somewhere between 300 and 500 people. let's take a look at the tubes now. quite a few issues out there this morning.
6:27 am
a part suspension on the bakerloo and overground, as well as a planned closure on the waterloo and city line. so definitely worth checking before you travel this morning. now onto the weather with kawser. hello. good morning. well, today marks the summer solstice. it's the longest day of the year. and there's plenty of fine dry weather and plenty of sunshine out there today as well. there'll be some patchy cloud at times, but it will feel warm in the sun as during the afternoon temperatures will climb up to the low twenties quite widely. we're looking at highs of around 22, possibly 23 celsius, with light to moderate northeasterly winds into the evening, too. to moderate northeasterly winds. into the evening, too. a fine evening to come. plenty of sunshine, a bit more in the way of cloud, perhaps in places overnight. but it will be dry with some clearer skies as well. and temperatures dipping down to around 10 to 13 celsius with lighter winds. and into tomorrow morning, again, plenty of fine dry weather. now there is this weather front that will bring some outbreaks of rain as it spreads from west to east overnight on friday
6:28 am
and to start saturday. but during the day on friday, there will be a lot of dry weather, just perhaps one or two isolated showers. and once that rain clears through saturday, too, may see one or two showers at first, but becoming drier and warmer for the rest of the weekend. head to our website to find out more about the north—west london kebab shop that's been boosted by taylor swift. that's all from me for now.. i'll be back in around half an hour. see you soon. bye bye. hello, this is breakfast with naga munchetty and rogerjohnson. with just two weeks to go until polling day, the parties are stepping up their campaigns in a fight for every vote. this morning nina is in the waveney valley, to find out if the messages are getting through. looks are getting through. like a beautiful morning. it

6:30 am
on the nhs, but she is coming close. i've been on a waiting list to have a hip replacement for 80 weeks now and i was on two years before that waiting to actually see a surgeon. so it's been a long time. this is a constituency where you are likely to be older and much more likely to own a home than the national average. and for frances, well, that doesn't feel fair on the next generation. i'm lucky. i'm a pensioner. i have a house that's bought and paid for. my husband left me comfortable. i'm not rich. i'm comfortable. but for younger people, there's just no chance. and it's not necessarily buying a house, it's just renting a house. and emily would agree. ten miles east in harleston, she's on shift at a farm cafe, supplementing her student loan. it's quite difficult at the moment with the money and the pay having to obviously do my summerjob and earn as much money as i can to be able to afford to actually go to university. head out to the market, and here,
6:31 am
there are those who think there's a simple solution to pressure on public services. i think we need to do more about immigration. i think what's going on in this country is really bad and that's why we haven't got any money to do anything with. then across the river waveney and into palgrave in suffolk, and at their board game club, again, pauline and george are among those worried that life will be worse for their kids than it was for them. i now home educate my children because they've got special needs and they're not being met. and the environment. what kind of future do they have? having to pay excessive amounts for dentists, for treating our children's teeth and our own has been quite painful, to be honest. but for some of this generation it's
6:32 am
all about getting by — the very basics. i mean, i use food banks, you know, because i have to. and i was listening to some music on the radio, and it was a song from the �*80s. and it was it was a happy—go—lucky, nice, cheerfulsong. and i was reminiscing of what it was like in the �*80s. you know, people were really up. there was hope. we don't have any hope at the minute. boundaries may change, but some things stay the same. worries about your future, yourfamily, and where to place your vote. we have popped inside the cafe and ben is_ we have popped inside the cafe and ben is here — we have popped inside the cafe and ben is here one of our political reporters— ben is here one of our political reporters in the region, and lovely to see _ reporters in the region, and lovely to see you — reporters in the region, and lovely to see you as ever. talk me through the background, the political background to this new constituency and the _ background to this new constituency and the bits and bobs of other

a fumble in the box but callum mcgregor recovered to set up scott mctominay. it's back to mctominay! and deflected in! the ball came off a swiss player, they didn't care. scotland lead. watching back in inverness, the party started. but it didn't last long. a bad pass. and switzerland pounced on it. shaqiri! what a goal! yhat is an unbelievable finish. that is an unbelievable finish. the tables had turned in the crowd. just before the break, switzerland struck again. angus gunn reaching out to keep scotland in it. commitment is everything. but kieran tierney pushed too hard, clutching at his hamstring and had to be stretchered off. this game is about fine margins.

a perfect delivery from the captain, andy robertson. it was a teasing one, but the header ricocheted off the post. grant hanley pleading with the heavens and the fans begging for more. time for a nervy last—minute winner> then robertson sent a header dangerously across the face of goal. a draw keeps scotland's hopes alive, and the vocal tartan army will follow their heroes as they head to stuttgart. i thought it was a good match. i thought it could have gone either way. i thought scotland had chances. switzerland had chances. a couple of close offsides, but i really enjoyed it. i think we played definitely a lot better than friday and we've just got to pray that we can play better on sunday, and we find a way through. but i love them. i thought it was an amazing match. lots of chances for both sides. come on, scotland! they did so well. we just got our noses in front and i thought| we were going to get the winner.

but we're going to beat hungary, we're going to finish on four- points and we're going to qualify for the next round. _ come on, scotland! the scotland fans saw a side of their team that's been missing for quite a while, especially in their opening loss. now the belief is back, and they want even more in theirfinal group game against hungary. jane dougall, bbc news, cologne. so a point it is for scotland. the chance of reaching the knockouts is still on, and that'll do for head coach steve clarke _ if you go back to the very start when the draw was made and you're looking at the draw and you think first game is going to be difficult, we didn't think it would be so difficult, but it was a difficult night for us. we always knew that the points were required would come from these two games. so we've got one point now. that means that we have a chance at the last game to get three points. i believe if we get those three points, we go to the next stage. before scotland played, the other game in that group saw hosts gemany become the first team to reach the last 16. jamal musiala scoring the opener

7:02 am
into by the gambling commission in connection with an alleged bet relating to the timing of the general election. it comes as a police officer, working as part of the prime minister's close protection team, was suspended and later arrested also over an alleged bet about when the general election would take place. our political correspondent, harry farley, has the latest. earlier today, i spoke with his majesty the king, to request the dissolution of parliament. the king has granted this request and we will have a general election on the 11th ofjuly. that announcement from the prime minister last month came as a surprise to many, including in his own party. now, the gambling commission says it's investigating possible offences relating to bets placed on the timing of the election. the use of insider information for an unfair advantage when betting can be a criminal offence. one of those being looked into by the watchdog is laura saunders. she has worked for the tories since 2015 and is being investigated for a bet she allegedly placed, although it's not known when or for how much money.
7:03 am
miss saunders has not yet commented on the claims. hello, mr williams. last week, another conservative candidate and a former aide to the prime minister, craig williams, apologised and said he had made a huge error ofjudgment after allegations he had placed a £100 bet on a july election three days before it was called. a conservative party spokesman told the bbc... these revelations come as a separate incident in which a police officer in the prime minister's close protection team was suspended and later arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office over alleged bets they made. the matter has also been referred to the independent office for police conduct. with just two weeks to go until polling day, it seems july the 11th is a date which is still causing controversy

something important to achieve at this stage of the election campaign but make no mistake, rishi sunak is under particular pressure because of that story you heard. notjust one but two conservative candidates being looked at by the gambling commission over alleged bets on the timing of the election. i think the fact a met police officer has been suspended from theirjob might bring him under more pressure to disown his candidates. the conservatives say they cannot comment at this stage. it comes after a string of polls which we have a lot of in an election, showing the conservatives heading for something between a bad defeat and total wipe—out at this election. conservative candidates are extremely worried. a lot of people think they know how this election will play out. but do not underestimate the ability of a studio audience to shake it all up.

7:17 am
and england has a shortage of teachers. teachers�* pay is among the first decisions facing a new government. natalie, like many others, has been feeling the cost of living. we look at where we can get clothes either second—hand or in a sale as opposed to being able to just go out and buy what the children need at that time. i have considered leaving teaching. i do look at what is available, what otherjobs i could do. because, actually, what i'd like is a better work—life balance around my children. while new teachers�* pay is now £30,000, experienced teachers�* pay has fallen 11% since 2010, once rising costs are factored in. how many ways can you make 100?
7:18 am
this school in leeds has put ads for teachers�* jobs on hold. pay is their biggest bill and they don�*t yet know what it will be in september. there is a gap, a chasm of difference there. we are talking hundreds of thousands of pounds for a medium—sized secondary school. the difference between the funding that has been so far promised and what teacher pay rises are likely to be. spending for each pupil in england, because costs have gone up, is worth no more than 1a years ago, despite the extra challenges. schools are also still dealing with some of the legacy of covid. with some of the legacy of covid — more children with mental health issues, attendance far below what it was before. at this school, they make time and space for children who need extra help. to get funding in future, they will have to apply for a care plan for each.
7:19 am
how to pay for special educational needs is another big looming challenge after the election. in sheffield, kerry wants more help for her six—year—old son. he is only managing school a couple of hours a day. to be sure of more support, kerry wants his needs reassessed. you have got to choose to be happy, or your situation would destroy you. it is not working at all. so many parents are just... they are just in survival. everything is a fight that doesn�*t need to be, if the right things were put in place. there�*s been a 60% increase in education, health and care plans since 2015, setting out the legal right of a child or young person to extra support, leading to a £3.5 billion increase in spending. also on the difficult—to—sort—out list is university funding.
7:20 am
in 40 years, some students could still be paying off their loans for living costs and teaching. joe and mia love their film course at leeds beckett. so do they think tuition fees should go up? they could go up, but they need to re—evaluate how it would be repaid back. so obviously previously, it would be less over a shorter period of time. now, it�*s substantially longer. if they re—evaluate it and sort of maybe get employers to help out to try and pay off your student loan, similar to paying like a pension or something like that. i think that tuition fees shouldn't go up, especially in the cost—of—living crisis. you know, you're just going to make students not want to go to university when there's so many other options, there's so many different pathways that you could go down. the man in charge told me it�*s time for decisions about what universities are worth.
7:21 am
the universities�* finances are fragile and that itjust takes a small shift to send a lot of organisations into difficulty. the question for me is do you see higher education as a cost or an investment? and i think if we�*re looking at long term productivity and the future of the economy, it�*s about time to think of it as an investment. education is the second largest area of public spending, and that means taking decisions that shape their future and our economy. and branwen joins us. important to say, we have been talking to people and they have sent questions, but education is a devolved issue, important to save. it is. education policy in each bit of the uk is set by the government there. the westminster election only affects education policy in england, primarily what we will be talking

7:24 am
funding and could it come from the income of taxing private schools? when we talk about tax it is about the vat, that labour proposes? labour said it would put vat on school fees. independent schools hugely varied. some charge £50,000 a yearfor a border, others charge much less. the average is around 15,000. independent economists said it would raise 1.3, 1.6 billion which would cover roughly the cost of the extra teachers labour has promised. it is not really enough to make a difference if you are talking about core school funding across the whole school system.— whole school system. universities sa the whole school system. universities say they are _ whole school system. universities say they are underfunded. - say they are underfunded. a17—year—old said it was recently reported 40% of universities are in the red and with tight fiscal rules,

7:27 am
schools and more places in specialist schools. the greens said £5 billion should go to mainstream schools to try to help them make them more inclusive and give support in the classroom. they do it really well but schools say they are stretched and have to come up with the first £6,000. labour are focusing on early intervention. they have not said what they would do on finances but want to focus on trying to support children in mainstream. reform do not mention it. the greens say they would put £5 billion into mainstream to increase that classroom support.- mainstream to increase that classroom support. thank you to eve one classroom support. thank you to everyone who — classroom support. thank you to everyone who has _ classroom support. thank you to everyone who has sent _ classroom support. thank you to everyone who has sent an - classroom support. thank you to l everyone who has sent an e-mail. everyone who has sent an e—mail. your inbox is always flooded when we talk about this. t your inbox is always flooded when we talk about this.— talk about this. i have had so many e-mails, heart-rending _ talk about this. i have had so many e-mails, heart-rending stories. - e—mails, heart—rending stories. councils are also saying the system is broken and it is on the urgent tattoo list for the next government. there was a rib —— urgent to do
7:28 am
list. ahead of the general election, the bbc is giving you the chance to ask the questions you�*d like to be at the heart you can submit your idea on the bbc news online page. branwen will be answering more of your questions on the one o�*clock news. time to get the news, travel and weather where you are. hello, good morning. let�*s get your london news now, with me, frankie mccamley. taylor swift fans heading to wembley stadium for her eras tour are being targeted by suspected scammers on airbnb. some new profiles have been set up on the holiday rental website advertising properties surrounding wembley stadium using aland stock images.
7:29 am
brent council is urging fans to report scams if they spot them. there�*s such an audience here of people who are desperate to stay in the area or get a ticket for the concert if they haven�*t been able to do so through the normal channels. so you can see why it�*s a prime focus for fraudulent activity. but we are absolutely relentless in trying to seek this out and stop it where we can. in response, airbnb has said — it has "zero tolerance for fake listings" and the four properties bbc london flagged to the site — have been removed." the inquest into the death of zara aleena has heard cctv cameras which captured footage of the hours leading up to her murder weren�*t being monitored at the time. jordon mcsweeney killed her as she walked home in ilford injune 2022. the cameras weren�*t being looked at, because it wasn�*t an area identified by police as a crime hotspot. the uk�*s largest new film and tv studio has now fully
7:30 am
opened near reading. shinfield studios has 18 sound stages as well a nine acre filming backlot. which has already been used for productions including the latest star wars series. we are able to accommodate about four fairly large feature films at any one point. now the employment potential with four films at any one point is quite significant. you know, an average—sized feature will employ somewhere between 300 and 500 people. let�*s take a look at the tubes now. quite a few issues out there this morning, severe delays on the bakerloo line and part suspension on the overground now onto the weather with kawser. hello. good morning. well, today marks the summer solstice. it�*s the longest day of the year. and there�*s plenty of fine dry weather and plenty of sunshine out there today as well. there�*ll be some patchy cloud at times, but it will feel warm in the sun as during the afternoon temperatures will climb up
7:31 am
to the low twenties quite widely. we�*re looking at highs of around 22, possibly 23 celsius, with light to moderate northeasterly winds. into the evening, too. a fine evening to come. plenty of sunshine, a bit more in the way of cloud, perhaps in places overnight. but it will be dry with some clearer skies as well. and temperatures dipping down to around 10 to 13 celsius with lighter winds. and into tomorrow morning, again, plenty of fine dry weather. now there is this weather front that will bring some outbreaks of rain as it spreads from west to east overnight on friday and to start saturday. but during the day on friday, there will be a lot of dry weather, just perhaps one or two isolated showers. and once that rain clears through saturday, too, may see one or two showers at first, but becoming drier and warmer for the rest of the weekend. head to our website to find out more about the north—west london kebab shop that�*s been boosted by taylor swift. that�*s all from me for now.. i�*ll be back in around half an hour. see you soon.
7:32 am
hello, this is breakfast with rogerjohnson and naga munchetty. with just two weeks until polling day, the leaders time special. ahead of tonight�*s live programme, nick eardley from bbc�*s verify has been looking at some of the claims you might hear. yes. hello. these four will be put through their paces tonight in the question time special. just two weeks to go until polling day. they will be trying to persuade you to back them. and bbc verify will be here tonight, fact—checking the big claims and explaining the context. but there are a few things i wanted to quickly run through that might be of use tonight. firstly, this — dubious claims that labour and the conservatives have been making about each other. here they are. the conservatives claiming that taxes will go up under the labour party,
7:33 am
£2,000 per working household. the labour claiming that mortgages will go up nearly £5,000 the labour claiming that mortgages will go up nearly £5,000 under the conservatives. we�*ve covered both of these claims. there�*s politics involved. both parties are trying to say the other can�*t be trusted. the thing you need to know is this — both of these claims are potentially misleading. they contain a lot of questionable assumptions. and if you hear them tonight, you�*re entitled to be cautious. secondly, economic growth. the parties are all talking about it. but the thing you need to know is that since the pandemic, the picture with economic growth is that it�*s been pretty flat. it�*s not been as much as the government would have wanted. the forecast is for more growth from next year. but if whoever is prime minister wants to spend more money, pushing growth up is going to be crucial. and there�*s a question for the leaders about what they will do if they don�*t get the economic growth they want. will it make it harder
7:34 am
to deliver public services? will they have to rethink tax or spend policies? not something they�*re hugely keen to talk about in detail. finally, a bit of context on the state of the health service, something that�*s been talked about a lot on the campaign trail. all the parties are debating the best way to deal with this, the huge nhs backlog. this is the picture in england. you can see in the last few years there�*s been a big increase. the backlog has fallen a wee bit, but that was from record highs. the snp may well be asked about the picture in scotland where they run the health service. waiting lists in scotland have reached a record high too. this is the picture when it comes to treatment waits of 18 weeks or more. oh, and the conservatives like to point out that in wales, with the labour administration in cardiff, waiting lists have reached record highs too. so there is a question for the parties about what they would do to solve these waiting times. they�*re pledging more cash, but will it be enough and where should it be focused? so all of that is some context for the leaders being grilled tonight.
7:35 am
there are likely to be other issues that come up. we�*ll be looking at them later, too. there will be a lot more from bbc verify throughout the day. we can speak now to the housing secretary, michael gove. good morning and thank you for joining us. lots to talk to you about, and can we start first of all with this story about a second candidate being looked into regarding bets on the timing of the election? what impression do you think this gives of those involved with the conservatives? it�*s think this gives of those involved with the conservatives? it's deeply recrettable with the conservatives? it's deeply regrettable if— with the conservatives? it's deeply regrettable if anyone _ with the conservatives? it's deeply regrettable if anyone has - with the conservatives? it's deeply regrettable if anyone has been - regrettable if anyone has been speculating, betting on the result of the election on the basis of inside information, but, at the moment we have an investigation process going on and i think it�*s led by the gambling commission and we will have to wait and see what
7:36 am
they conclude but it is certainly pretty, what is the word, disappointing, at least, behaviour. did you know the general election would be taking place on the ath of july would be taking place on the ath of july some time before it was announced?— july some time before it was announced? :, , :, ::, :, announced? no, you could have knocked me _ announced? no, you could have knocked me down _ announced? no, you could have knocked me down with - announced? no, you could have knocked me down with a - announced? no, you could havel knocked me down with a feather. that�*s interesting but there were other people amongst the conservatives who were making bets seemingly because of information they had. does that surprise you? yes, and i think there is a third case of someone who is not involved with the conservative party but who may have been privy to that information. and one of the things i learned is difficult for politicians is to provide a running commentary when you have investigations going on. obviously it is a matter of public concern and interest and if people have used inside information
7:37 am
to place bets is deeply wrong but what i can�*t do is get too much into the detail of the case while the investigation is going on but i can talk about the broader principle, and you are right, it is reprehensible. and you are right, it is rerehensible. :, :, reprehensible. looking at the front ofthe reprehensible. looking at the front of the telegraph _ reprehensible. looking at the front of the telegraph this _ reprehensible. looking at the front of the telegraph this morning, - of the telegraph this morning, simple headline, tory wipe—out. we know the most important poll is what will happen on the ath ofjuly when the electorate goes to vote but you are aware of all of the poles coming through. when you see a headline like that, a conservative leaning paper, tory wipe—out, what does it make you think? paper, tory wipe-out, what does it make you think?— paper, tory wipe-out, what does it make you think? several things. the first is that this — make you think? several things. the first is that this is _ make you think? several things. the first is that this is not _ make you think? several things. the first is that this is not the _ make you think? several things. the first is that this is not the view - first is that this is not the view of the daily telegraph, it is a poll conducted by a reputable polling company with all of the methodology and data put through the system and the second thing is, of course politicians look at polls. the choice at this election, and then
7:38 am
the choice is between keir starmer and rishi sunak so they�*re the only two people who can be prime minister so it�*s obliging for me as a conservative for me to explain why rishi sunak would be the right candidate but that takes me to the third point that there are two key things that i think people are crystallising in their mind, as they look at these from pages. one is, if labour win, what will it mean for me in terms of taxation, and taxes will rise faster and more under labour than under the conservatives. and then the second thing if people look at a rampage like that is they will think, what would labour do if they had a majority as big as that —— a front page like that. will we have a strong, questioning opposition and might labour be tempted to use that massive majority to rig the system to extend votes to 16—year—olds and prisoners and eu citizens and two others in a way designed to entrench a forever rule. those are my
7:39 am

7:40 am
want to make sure we are looking at the policies that both sides are putting forward and, for example on housing, the area i am responsible for, i believe our record of housing delivery and the policies we bring forward in the future will mean more people will be able to get on the housing ladder under the conservatives than under labour. t conservatives than under labour. i am listening to you closely and the tone of the tone of what you are saying of concerns about labour having a significant majority if it wins the election. to me it sounds like you have conceded defeat. t like you have conceded defeat. i don't concede defeat until the don�*t concede defeat until the whistle finally blows. so don't concede defeat until the whistle finally blows.- don't concede defeat until the whistle finally blows. so do you think there _ whistle finally blows. so do you think there is _ whistle finally blows. so do you think there is a _ whistle finally blows. so do you think there is a possibility - whistle finally blows. so do you think there is a possibility the l think there is a possibility the conservatives will win, a good possibility, a good possibility the conservatives will be back in government onjuly conservatives will be back in government on july the conservatives will be back in government onjuly the 5th? conservatives will be back in government on july the 5th? never sa die. government on july the 5th? never say die- you've _ government on july the 5th? never say die. you've got _ government on july the 5th? never say die. you've got to _ government on july the 5th? never say die. you've got to fight - government on july the 5th? never say die. you've got to fight until. say die. you�*ve got to fight until the final moment. you�*ve got to keep playing until the final whistle and thatis playing until the final whistle and that is the philosophy i take and
7:41 am
again it�*s entirely understandable people should speculate about what might happen after and that thought is in peoples minds, but while you are in the election there is, i think, a democratic responsibility and duty on the part of politicians to put forward ideas about how the country would be better governed and to debate some of the difficult choices we had to make in the past and to invite people to reflect on for example the gains we have made in education, real gains in improving school standards fought tooth and nail by labour and there are schools today that are sending children from a very poor background to a top university and these didn�*t exist before the conservatives were in government and having a conversation about the future for young people and what should happen in our schools is i thinkjust as if not more important than speculating on the polls. again, it�*s a broad
7:42 am
conversation and i understand why people will talk about the polls and no one should ever seek to police or sensor conversations but ijust want to broaden it. t�*d sensor conversations but i 'ust want to broaden it.— sensor conversations but i 'ust want to broaden rt.— to broaden it. i'd like to take the last couple _ to broaden it. i'd like to take the last couple of— to broaden it. i'd like to take the last couple of minutes _ to broaden it. i'd like to take the last couple of minutes i - to broaden it. i'd like to take the last couple of minutes i have - to broaden it. i'd like to take the | last couple of minutes i have with you to hear your reflections. you are levelling up minister and ijust wonder if you think you have levelled up. i�*m looking at the public accounts committee that found only 10% of funded promises had been spent by march 202a and there was a promise to level up. do you think you have succeeded? t promise to level up. do you think you have succeeded?— promise to level up. do you think you have succeeded? i think we have succeeded and _ you have succeeded? i think we have succeeded and not _ you have succeeded? i think we have succeeded and not gone _ you have succeeded? i think we have succeeded and not gone as _ you have succeeded? i think we have succeeded and not gone as far- you have succeeded? i think we have succeeded and not gone as far as - you have succeeded? i think we have succeeded and not gone as far as we | succeeded and not gone as far as we need to but when... succeeded and not gone as far as we need to but when. . ._ need to but when... have you made satisfactory — need to but when... have you made satisfactory progress? _ need to but when... have you made satisfactory progress? yes, - need to but when... have you made satisfactory progress? yes, good i satisfactory progress? yes, good arroress satisfactory progress? yes, good progress actually, _ satisfactory progress? yes, good progress actually, and _ satisfactory progress? yes, good progress actually, and when - satisfactory progress? yes, good progress actually, and when we i progress actually, and when we published the prospectus we made it clear it would take until at least 2030 in order to deliver but if you look at devolution, strengthening the hands of local communities. we had the biggest change in the way
7:43 am
england has been governed and the biggest level of devolution for more than hundred years and if you look at what the conservatives have done in teesside, come with me, visit the constituency that simon clark mp is fighting and see the difference he has made working with the mayor of teesside and i would defy anyone to say that that isn�*t levelling up. if you look at urban regeneration in blackpool and if you look at the investment we have made in renewables in blyth with an the way we have transformed greater grimsby, in all of these areas and i could go on but i don�*t want to hog the camera. there has been real progress towards levelling up. you camera. there has been real progress towards levelling up.— towards levelling up. you are one of 75 former conservative _ towards levelling up. you are one of 75 former conservative mps - towards levelling up. you are one of| 75 former conservative mps choosing 75 former conservative mp5 choosing not to stand again in this election, and you are one of the few mp5 who have been in government since the

hello, good morning. let's get your london news now, with me, frankie mccamley. taylor swift fans heading to wembley stadium for her eras tour are being targeted by suspected scammers on airbnb. some new profiles have been set up on the holiday rental website advertising properties surrounding wembley stadium using aland stock images. brent council is urging fans to report scams if they spot them. there's such an audience here of people who are desperate to stay in the area or get a ticket for the concert if they haven't been able to do so through the normal channels. so you can see why it's a prime focus for fraudulent activity. but we are absolutely relentless in trying to seek this out and stop it where we can. in response, airbnb has said — it has "zero tolerance for fake listings" and the four properties bbc london flagged to the site — have been removed."

hope he loses. with just two weeks to go until polling day, the parties are stepping up their campaigns in a fight for every vote. how do they fight for the vote and tug at the heartstrings of the electorate. nina is in waveney valley and finding out if the messages, and how many leaders debates and interviews have we heard. the thing is you don't know if the message is getting through. quite true. welcome to waveney valley, a new constituency in the east anglia area that straddles the two counties of norfolk and suffolk and we are in gorgeous harleston, 20 miles south of norwich itself, and it sort of typifies this
8:47 am
constituency. a really quiet peaceful market town, surrounded by farmland and arable farming is big here and there is some cattle farming as well and lots of people live here who have retired. there are lots of issues that are important to people and we noticed them worrying about the next generation of what will happen to them and we know if you watch the football there are big rivalries between norfolk and suffolk but they have to decide between them who will represent them in parliament under this new constituency and we have been asking them what would take their vote. # never gonna give you up this is diss, waveney valley's biggest town and home to the disschord choir, aptly named for singers who aren't necessarily in tune over political priorities. # never gonna tell a lie and hurt you.# dola doesn't want to give up on the nhs, but she is coming close. i've been on a waiting list

a simple solution to pressure on public services. i think we need to do more about immigration. i think what's going on in this country is really bad and that's why we haven't got any money to do anything with. then across the river waveney and into palgrave in suffolk, and at their board game club, again, pauline and george are among those worried that life will be worse for their kids than it was for them. i now home educate my children because they've got special needs and they're not being met. and the environment. what kind of future do they have? having to pay excessive amounts for dentists, for treating our children's teeth and our own has been quite painful, to be honest. but for some of this generation it's all about getting by — the very basics.
