also in the programme: we are live in the historic industrial town of greenock, on the banks of the river clyde. we'll be looking at the election battlegrounds and issues here in scotland. and from the west to the east, i'm in prestonpans and east lothian, looking at the tussle between the scottish national party and labour. we hear from voters in the scottish highlands about what matters to them. come on! good luck, scotland. good luck, boys. come on! and the euro fever grabbing hearts and minds in scotland. and on sportsday later in the hour on bbc news, we'll have more from the european championship in germany, as ukraine keep their hopes alive in the tournament.

a police chief has been sacked for gross misconduct after lying about his military career. nick adderley, who was the chief constable of northamptonshire, wore a falklands war medal on his police uniform, even though he was only 15 at the time of the conflict, and exaggerated his achievements in the navy. our midlands correspondent navteonhal reports. the most senior police officer in his force dismissed for lying. until today, nick adderley was the chief constable of northamptonshire police, but a gross misconduct hearing found he lied about his career to get the job. he claimed he had been a military negotiator in haiti, even though he'd never visited the country, had attended the prestigious britannia

royal naval college, despite his application being rejected, and implied that he had served in the falklands war, despite being 15 at the time. all the allegations against him were upheld. how did someone like this slip through the net? ido find i do find it extraordinary that he felt that was an appropriate way to behave. it wasn't at all. and he didn't need to. he was a man with a really good reputation for policing. nick adderley also wore this, a south atlantic medal given to falklands war veterans, which was described by a medal expert as 110% a fake. in some countries, it is illegal to do what he's done, and perhaps that might come through now to be an act of parliament, that you cannot impersonate. are you ashamed of him? i'm not ashamed of him, no. he should be ashamed of himself. in its findings, the three—person panel said nick adderley had lied with arrogant temerity, had displayed sustained brazen dishonesty, and that his application

for the drop contained lie upon lie. dishonesty, and that his application for thejob contained lie upon lie. despite being instructed to do so, nick adderley did not attend court today, but in a statement, he said that he apologised unreservedly to the veterans he had offended. but the panel did note that this incident will cause lasting harm to the police. navteonhal, bbc news, northampton. rescue teams searching for a british teenager missing in tenerife have been focusing on a ravine. 19—year—old jay slater hasn't been heard from since monday morning. no trace of him has been found, despite the use of drones, dogs and a helicopter. in his home town in lancashire, people have been tying blue ribbons, hoping for his safe return. nick garnett reports. in the lancashire town of oswaldtwistle, blue ribbons of hope for one of their own. churches offering prayers forjay and his family, but this is a town left feeling helpless.

there's not much obviously we can do over here while they're over there searching, so obviouslyjust the blue ribbons and stuff is just to show the family that, as a community, we are all thinking and praying for them. yeah, it is quite upsetting if i never see him again, do you know what i mean? it's been 4—5 days now, hasn't it, which is a long time, _ a long time to be lost. from north—west england to the north—west of tenerife, and in the mountains, the search goes on. the 19—year—old had visited this rental apartment with two men he'd met at a festival, and as he left, he spoke to the last person to see him. she saw jay on the day he disappeared. he asked what time the bus came. she said ten o'clock, and he started to walk up the hill. and she went driving later on and saw him about a kilometre from here, said he was walking fine. when i asked what she thought had happened to him, she said, "i just hope he's 0k." jay slater was due to fly home today at the end of his holiday, but there is still no sign of him.

this unforgiving landscape refusing to give up this secret. nick garnett, bbc news, tenerife. a gang of cyber criminals which has been targeting hospitals has published data stolen from an nhs blood testing company. two health trusts in london have had to cancel thousands of operations and appointments as result — our health editor hugh pym is here. so, hugh, how worried should we be? the theft and publication of data from a company or a public corporation is always worrying. when it comes to nhs data, which is sacrosanct, it is particularly concerning. nhs officials are working with cyber experts to try to verify exactly what is in the stolen files. no further information has been given. the bbc�*s cyber correspondent says patient names, dates of birth and nhs numbers can be seen. nhs england say that e—mail

system has not been affected, but they are urging people who have received unexpected or suspicious e—mails to be very cautious. they have set up a helpline. when it comes to the trusts involved, guy's and saint thomas and king's college hospital, they have been seriously affected, along with gp practices in south—east london because the disruption to blood supplies. here is the message tonight from nhs officials. services have been disrupted, mainly planned services such as operations and outpatients' appointments. and i'm very sorry to those patients whose appointments have had to be rescheduled, but i know that nhs working round—the—clock to make sure that those are rescheduled as quickly as possible. nhs england adds that emergency services are running as normal, but they say a restoration of services and the it systems could take some weeks. . ~ and the it systems could take some weeks. ., ~ , ., and the it systems could take some weeks. . ~' , ., , and the it systems could take some weeks. ., ~ , ., , . and the it systems could take some weeks. ., ~ i. , . ., weeks. here, thank you very much for now. huh

weeks. here, thank you very much for nova hugh pym- _ now, the bbc news at six and ten is travelling around the uk during this general election campaign — let'sjoin reeta now in greenock in inverclyde. hello from one of the seats which is a key battleground here in scotland between the snp and labour. with a fortnight to go before the poll, we'll be looking tonight at scotland's political landscape and how it might change after polling day. in the last general election in 2019, the snp dominated, winning 48 seats at westminster. trailing far behind, the conservatives gained a total of six mps across scotland, the liberal democrats had four, leaving labour almost wiped out with just a single mp in a scottish seat. this time around, boundary changes mean there'll be two fewer parliamentary seats in scotland than at the last election. in a moment, we'll be hearing from our scotland editorjames cook, and later i'll be finding out if it's election or euros fever sweeping the nation.

but first, our political editor chris mason reports from the newly created constituency of lothian east where an old name is hoping for success. a name, a face that mightjust be familiar. douglas alexander was a labour cabinet officer but were swept away in the snp landslide in scotland in 2015. now he's back. politics looks like many things, but this is it at its core. pavement persuasion. how different is it fuel from when you are last year? the world has from when you are last year? tue: world has changed from when you are last year? tte: world has changed a lot. the british economy was larger than the chinese economy was larger than the chinese economy when labour was last elected in 1997. we are world—class at losing elections and the labour party, so we are working very hard from now until polling day. what

the highlands are stunning, but they're not just a pretty place for tourists — they're home to real people with real problems. megan macinnes knows all about the challenges — she runs the community trust on the applecross peninsula. i mean, i think the key issues for our community and probably many others across the north—west highlands is housing, lack of affordable housing. we've got 45% of the houses on the peninsula being second homes and short—term let, which means that local people on local incomes can't afford houses. the community are seeking their own solutions. they've just built these three affordable homes, but they can't solve the problem alone. and so your message to politicians in this election would be, �*hello, don't forget about us, we're here?’ the whole viability of this really fragile community becomes completely untenable if we can't actually house people who want to live here.

over the pass from applecross, in the village of kishorn, it's a similar story. these two houses here and the house on the other side of me, they're all tourist accommodation. helen murchison has been on the community council here for 50 of her 90 years. the highlands were traditionally lib dem because the liberals supported the crofting communities and the central belt were red hot labour because of the miners and the shipyards. their issues were quite different. but from ullapool to edinburgh, one thing is the same — the cost of living is a key concern for many people, including katy campbell, who lives here with her husband and five children. because everything has just gone up exponentially, we're actually no better off, even though our incomes may be treble than what we were 20 years ago. it can be really hard having to say to the children, "no, you know,

we can't afford that." we've had to learn ways to make food stretch and we've had to change the way we would normally holiday and even days out, you know. so it has been hard. despite rising prices, tourists keep coming to the highlands, but many locals are leaving. everybody, there's like eight or nine of us... nuala, who's finishing high school, says it's no wonder. housing is so difficult to find here and it is so expensive. so i'm not sure if i'll be able to live here. i might have to go live in, like, a city somewhere. the root problem, reckons nuala's mum, lisa, is inequality in society. we're beginning to see the fraying and the crumbling of the structure of society itself because of lack of investment and more than a decade of austerity. we sometimes see superyachts coming in here. $800 million for a toy. i find that obscene. at the same time, we have families who are choosing between heating and eating.

voters here are sending a message to all politicians — for the highlands to thrive, they'll have to look beyond the picture postcard. james cook, bbc news, ullapool. james is with me. and chris mason is down the line for us. a snapshot of the issues in the highlands but what about the country as a whole? we highlands but what about the country as a whole? ~ ., highlands but what about the country as a whole? ~ . ., as a whole? we heard about the cost of livin: as a whole? we heard about the cost of living and — as a whole? we heard about the cost of living and that _ as a whole? we heard about the cost of living and that is _ as a whole? we heard about the cost of living and that is the _ as a whole? we heard about the cost of living and that is the big _ of living and that is the big concern, notjust in the highlands but other parts of the uk and indeed in scotland. it is particularly a problem in the highlands because of energy bills. it can take a lot more money to heat homes in the highlands. fuel bills for cars can be higher because the distances people are travelling longer but really, as i say, the issues are pretty much the same as they are, they will be familiar to many people watching around the country about the economy, the public services, the economy, the public services, the funding of public services and the funding of public services and the welfare budget. here in

scotland, when you have those conversations, they quickly become conversations, they quickly become conversations about structure in politics, about whether we have the right economic system and the right constitutional system, whether people are talking about capitalism, brexit, independent, obviously, it is that the voters to decide whether we do have the right system and indeed whether those are relevant at all at this election.— all at this election. james, thank ou ve all at this election. james, thank you very much- _ all at this election. james, thank you very much. chris, _ all at this election. james, thank you very much. chris, does - all at this election. james, thank you very much. chris, does the l you very much. chris, does the campaign feel different here in scotland from elsewhere? yes. campaign feel different here in scotland from elsewhere? yes, it does. scotland from elsewhere? yes, it does- this _ scotland from elsewhere? yes, it does- this is _ scotland from elsewhere? yes, it does. this is a _ scotland from elsewhere? yes, it does. this is a different _ scotland from elsewhere? yes, it does. this is a different nation i does. this is a different nation from _ does. this is a different nation from england and from the rest of the uk _ from england and from the rest of the uk and a different politics with different— the uk and a different politics with different emphases. i have been talking _ different emphases. i have been talking to — different emphases. i have been talking to the snp and liberal democrats today, who had sought to make _ democrats today, who had sought to make a _ democrats today, who had sought to make a virtue, as they see it, of saying _ make a virtue, as they see it, of saying they— make a virtue, as they see it, of saying they are to the left of labour — saying they are to the left of labour to stop labour simultaneously trying _ labour to stop labour simultaneously trying to— labour to stop labour simultaneously trying to reassure recent conservative voters in england and elsewhere, whilst also seeking to attract _ elsewhere, whilst also seeking to attract recent snp voters in scotland. let me bring you one other

and achievements has been dismissed for gross misconduct. still to come: we find out what england fans make of the team's chances at the euros now, after last night's draw against denmark. coming up sportsday in the next 15 minutes on bbc news, we're going to have the latest from st lucia, where england's cricketers are back in action at the t20 world cup. south africa are their latest opponents. throughout the election campaign, we've been finding out how it is shaping up across the uk. in a moment we'll hear from hugh casswell, bbc nottingham's political reporter, who's in sutton—in—ashfield in nottinghamshire. first, let's go to great yarmouth and bbc norfolk�*s political reporter, paul moseley.

welcome to great yarmouth, which mightjust have the best beach of any big seaside resort in the uk. but behind the golden mile, life isn't always so easy. according to official figures, great yarmouth is ranked as one of the most deprived parts of the country. and coastal erosion is a serious problem in this constituency, as well. a few miles down the coast in hemsbury, homes have been falling into the sea. the conservatives have held this seat for the last 1a years but their long—standing mp and former cabinet minister brandon lewis stepped down from this election. it means the conservatives face a real challenge from labour, who held this seat during the tony blair years. who held this seat during the tony blairyears. but who held this seat during the tony blair years. but great garment very firmly voted for brexit and it means the reform uk fancy their chances as well. we will find out what great yarmouth decides in two weeks�* time. indeed, thank you. now to hugh casswell in nottinghamshire.

good evening and welcome to downing street, in ashfield, and to the red wall. there are quite a few places around here which match that description. former coal—mining communities that were labour strongholds for decades but then elected lots of conservative mps in 2019. the way in which ashfield stands out is this is the only place where reform uk are fighting to hold on to something because this is the seat of lee anderson, the former deputy chair of the conservative party, who was suspended earlier this year and went on to join reform uk bust up with him now standing against the tories, against labour as well as there being a prominent independent candidate, it means this could be one of the most tightly contested seats anywhere in the country. what could make the difference? people here tell me they are worried about immigration, the cost of living, crime, but perhaps more than anything else, there is just this feeling that these areas have been left behind and that is a feeling that politicians ignore at their peril because as everyone

around here knows, the redwall, it leads to downing street.— around here knows, the redwall, it leads to downing street. thank you very much- — and you can find a full list of all candidates standing in the general election on the bbc news website. nigel farage, the leader of reform uk, has told the bbc that europe and nato �*provoked' russia's invasion of ukraine. mr farage was speaking to nick robinson in an interview for panorama — let's go to westminster and our political correspondent, leila nathoo. what's he been saying, leila? nigel farage is being interviewed as part of this is because he decided to become leader of reform uk during this election campaign, so he now has a chance, this chance to be questioned at length that he was asked about views he expressed in the past about vladimir putin. he said he disliked him as a person but admired him as a political operator. he was then asked if he stood by a tweet he posted after russia had

sent troops into ukraine in 2022, in which he said the invasion was a consequence of eu and nato expansion. nigel farage said he had been the only person in british politics to have predicted this war ten years ago, saying "we provoked this law" and putin used what we had done as an excuse. have a listen. i stood up in the european parliament in 2014 and i said, and i quote, "there will be a war in ukraine." why did i say that? it was obvious to me that the ever eastward expansion of nato and the european union was giving this man a reason to his russian people to say, 'they're coming for us again', and to go to war. as you might have expected, the subject of brexit came up. he said the tories had failed to properly deliver it and things would have turned out differently if he had beenin turned out differently if he had been in charge. he was challenged over something else from his past, a comment he had made about king

charles, describing him as an ego loony. he today said he wouldn't speak ill of the monarch but said his previous description of carbon dioxide as a pollutant was a very stupid comment.— dioxide as a pollutant was a very stupid comment. thank you. leila nathoo. and you can see the full nigel farage interview at 7:00 on bbc one, or on the iplayer, as part of nick robinsons interviews for panorama. a new photo has been released of prince william — taken by his wife catherine — to mark his 42nd birthday. the photo shows the prince with their children — princes george and louis, and princess charlotte — in norfolk last month. an accompanying message signed by catherine read: "happy birthday papa, we all love you so much!" tennis now — and a day after beating the wimbledon champion, britain's jack draper has been knocked out at queen's. it was a tight quarterfinal match

against the american fifth seed tommy paul, but the british number one struggled to find the form he showed in beating carlos alcaraz, and lost in three sets. football, and wales have sacked their manager rob page. he's been in charge for three and a half years, and led wales to their first world cup tournament in 64 years. he also guided them to the second round of euro 2020. but he's been dismissed after the team failed to qualify for this year's euros, and following two poor performances recently against gibraltar and slovakia. and after a lackluster performance from england last night in the euros, drawing 1—1 against denmark, how are fans feeling over in germany? nesta mcgregor has been finding out in frankfurt. at this tournament for fans in frankfurt, a chance to show the professionals how it's done. or maybe not... the mood of these england fans are similar to 24—hours ago.

commentator: brilliant work by kyle walker. - i don't know how you explain it, you look at the individual in parts of that team, great players. belling, nothing last night. commentator: brilliant work by kyle walker. - and a great chance for kane...! a 1—1 draw against denmark, harry kane and co top of group c — four points from two games but the performance was far from impressive. among the favourites at the start of euro 2024, the three lions are yet to show why, leading to criticism of the manager's team selection and the tactics. the substitutions are just an absolute disgrace, to be honest. they're leaving cole palmer on the bench. i think england have a good team but the performances are not so good. i see a lot of responses saying how bad - the players are but| that'sjust not true. everyone has off days. if the english fans get more louder and more supportive, it will help the national team of england. with slovenia next to gareth

southgate's team, the knockout stages and beyond will be the expectation. meanwhile, back at the fan tournament, with trophies up for grabs... germany involved in a penalty shoot out. we know how this one ends, don't we...? cheering. nesta mcgregor, bbc news, frankfurt. there is more to come. let's return to reeta in greenock in scotland. thank you. as the election race hots up, the other big contest, the euros, is on everyone's mind here in scotland. i went to meet some young footballers and their parents at east end united here in greenock, to talk a bit of politics, but mostly football. commentator: and it's back - to mctominay and it's deflected it! scotland lead! come on, scotland! if the fans are behind the team then the team will be behind themselves. if we believe in the team, the team will believe. everybody knows that the boys — all the team are just making

everybody in scotland proud. hopefully, we make it through. just keep pushing. commentator: and there is the full-time whistle. . scotland with a positive response. and they are still alive in group a. two contests going on at the moment, the euros and the elections. euros or elections? euros, every day of the week. yeah? uh—huh. euros. oh, come on, it's got to be scotland in the euros! that's definitely more exciting than politics. is it a daft question? totally! asking the scottish people that question, now. definitely. football brings everyone together, especially the scotland fans, because mostly it would be like rangers, celtic, and all the other teams but it's good to have harmony with everyone together. what's the score going to be on sunday? 3—1, scotland. 1—0, scotland. 3—1, scotland. i think scotland are going to go 2—1 against hungary. you've got a message that you want to give the team? good luck, scotland. good luck, boys — come on! cheering.
