the opinion polls make of his debate performance. it is just it isjust coming up it is just coming up to it isjust coming up to 6.05, you have more on this story in connection with campaigning and secret filming. and this is about reform uk and the leader of that party has insisted secret filming which caught one of the party's candidates using racist language about the prime minister was set up. the footage has said confirmation from other party leaders. he says it was... set up to spare his party. the leader of reform uk, nigel farage. the final weekend of the election campaign and for one party leader, difficult questions are piling up. what is it about you and your party that attracts racist and extremists, whether you say you want them or not?
6:05 am
i've done more to drive the far right out of british politics than anyone else alive. i took on the bnp just over decade ago, i said to their voters if this is a protest vote but you don't support their racist agenda, don't vote for them, vote for me and we destroyed them. nigel farage was challenged last night over homophobic and racist remarks made by reform uk canvassers secretly recorded by channel 4 news. 0ne suggested gay people were paedophiles and another that army recruits should shoot at people crossing the channel in small boats and use a racist insult to describe the prime minister. nigel farage insisted that man was an actor, and described the channel 4 report as a deliberate attempt to smear his party. this was a comedy act and it was designed to hurt us and, sadly, sadly, some people believe it. let me promise you. who do you think would have done this? i want nothing to do with people
6:06 am
like him and he has nothing to do with us. somebody who turned up and we didn't know who he was and by sheer coincidence, he happened to get teamed up with channel 4. elsewhere, he was questioned about his party's manifesto and how he would pay for his promises. there is a lot of stuff in your manifesto but how do you plan to pay for all this? we can comfortably save £30 million a year _ we can comfortably save £30 million a year by _ we can comfortably save £30 million a year by growing up and being sensible — a year by growing up and being sensible. if we want carbon free energy. — sensible. if we want carbon free energy, reliable not intermittent carbon— energy, reliable not intermittent carbon free energy, the only way to id carbon free energy, the only way to go is _ carbon free energy, the only way to go is a _ carbon free energy, the only way to go is a small modular nuclear reactors _ also fielding questions on stage last night was someone whose views could not be more different — adrian ramsay, the co—leader of the green party. i think we all know that we need to step up action on the climate crisis, both to adapt to the changes that are already happening, but to avoid the runaway climate change that will affect us all dreadfully if we don't get to grips with it. and he defended proposing to raise some taxes in his party's manifesto. talking about £5 extra
6:07 am
a week for someone earning £55,000 and what would that get you? at the moment, people cannot access an nhs dentist and if you can afford to do so you may be forking out a private dentist. how much does that cost you over a year? how much does it cost you over a year to pay extortionate train ticket prices because we're not investing in the railways, to have to heat your home into your bills going up and up every month because we have the leakiest homes in europe and we have not insulated them? so we are setting out a different vision we ask those earning a little bit more to pay a little bit more, including the multimillionaires and billionaires, but it is about a different type of society. the liberal democrat leader sir ed davey will finish his election campaign the five—day battle bus tour from john o'groats to lands end. for all parties, the journey to polling day is nearly over. laila nathoo, bbc news. police in tenerife are appealing for volunteers to mount what they describe as a massive search today for the missing british teenagerjay

6:12 am
of glastonbury. but not this year. it certainly isn't, good morning. mud is quite minimal across glastonbury at the moment, not expecting too much rain at all, they will be a little bit of rain for some of us today but generally a lot of dry weather so if you have outdoor plans through the weekend, it is very useful weekend of weather and there will be some spells of sunshine too. i will show you whether rain is for today, if we just look out towards the west you can see this little system, it is really quite weak and it will be weakening as it pushes eastwards through today. it is likely to bring some cloud, some outbreaks of drizzle as well, most of the rain this morning is across north wales and the parts of northwest england, it will eventually bring patchy light rain into the midlands as well, but laterthrough light rain into the midlands as well, but later through the day. to the north of the front they will be some sunshine, a few showers were northwest scotland, to the south of the front as well, a lot of sunshine
6:13 am
here. amperage is could rise as far as 2a— 25 celsius across parts of southeast england later on. —— temperatures. glastonbury looks quite dry but they could cloud towards the southwest. tonight we are looking at this front gradually moving southward and eastwards, bringing patches of drizzle with it. to the north there will be clear spells and it could feel quite chilly, around 6— eight celsius for some. very mild in the south and east, watch out for a few showers across parts of kent and east sussex tomorrow morning at the cloud will eventually clear, it will be a cloudy day in general tomorrow, some spells of brightness and sunshine at times, particularly through the end of the day with some isolated showers running down the spine of the uk, some of the best sunshine out towards the southwest. it will feel cooler tomorrow with more of a north—westerly wind, temperatures i am afraid rather disappointing for the time of year. as we look into
6:14 am
next week, we are looking out towards the west to see these systems gradually ease their way further eastwards. this will bring some spells of rain through the day on monday, first of all out towards the west, it is a narrow band of rain and it will gradually push its way further eastwards, so probably wimbledon, first day on monday, getting away with a largely dry day, could be some interruptions to play if it lingers on into the evening. temperatures disappointing really for this time of year. we talk a lot about the jetstream of course in weather and this is the fast moving band of air high in the atmosphere and it propels the low pressure systems our way, it will be strengthening into next week so we should see some wet weather around times, temperatures at or below the seasonal average, times, temperatures at or below the seasonalaverage, it times, temperatures at or below the seasonal average, it is good some of an hour. we will see you later. thank you. it is 6:15am- — we will see you later. thank you. it is 6:15am. stopping _ we will see you later. thank you. it is 6:15am. stopping the _ we will see you later. thank you. it is 6:15am. stopping the budget - we will see you later. thank you. it is 6:15am. stopping the budget hasj is 6:15am. stopping the budget has been a major theme of this general

6:35 am
and labour leaders. the opinion polls say overwhelmingly that starmer will be the next prime minister, but it is going to be a toughjob with the minister, but it is going to be a tough job with the need to find billions of extra pounds to keep living standards up and pay for better healthcare, defence and local government spending. could it all be a poisoned chalice? i sought the views of nick watt, the political editor of the bbc�*s newsnight programme. iiie. editor of the bbc's newsnight programme-— editor of the bbc's newsnight ”roramme. , , . ., programme. his principal reason for bein: in programme. his principal reason for being in such _ programme. his principal reason for being in such a _ programme. his principal reason for being in such a commanding - programme. his principal reason for being in such a commanding place i programme. his principal reason for| being in such a commanding place is that the country are completely fed up that the country are completely fed up with the conservative party after 14 up with the conservative party after 111 years, it would appear, not that they are falling in love with keir starmer. the challenge and the problem for keir starmer is that when there is a big appetite for change there are high expectations of what that change could bring. when tony blair became prime minister the economy was beginning to turn around, he was fiscally initiative —— initially very cautious and was able to spend. it is a completely different fiscal
6:36 am
situation keir starmer will find it very difficult to spend, he said he will not put up the main tax rates and when you say what are you going to do? he says growth. if keir starmer wins by a big, massive majority, that is a real poisoned chalice, isn't it?— majority, that is a real poisoned chalice, isn't it? what that might well do as it _ chalice, isn't it? what that might well do as it might _ chalice, isn't it? what that might well do as it might well- chalice, isn't it? what that might well do as it might well produce l chalice, isn't it? what that might| well do as it might well produce a comfortable and stable parliamentary majority _ comfortable and stable parliamentary majority for the winning party, the polls would suggest that is labour, produce _ polls would suggest that is labour, produce stability in parliament, but if you _ produce stability in parliament, but if you have — produce stability in parliament, but if you have these other parties getting — if you have these other parties getting quite a high percentage in the form — getting quite a high percentage in the form of reform uk but not getting — the form of reform uk but not getting many seats, that could create — getting many seats, that could create a — getting many seats, that could create a grievance on the right that the democratic system in this country— the democratic system in this country is _ the democratic system in this country is not allowing their voices to be _ country is not allowing their voices to be heard. so it could be a case of parliamentary stability but instability in the wider country. do ou instability in the wider country. you rate instability in the wider country. dun you rate nigel barrage's chances of taking over the conservative party

have stability in the british system is because the first past the post electoral system which is 656 constituencies, you just get across it and whoever gets the most candidates, they went. it does provide stability when fundamental you have a 2—party system. but it looks like in this election we may well be moving back to where we were before the brexit referendum which is a multi—party system. and with reform uk, which is the party headed by nigel farage, valgren percentage but not good on seats. in the 1980s, first past the post benefited margaret thatcher, big majorities, big landslide on about 42— 43%. the left felt disenfranchised by that system in the 1980s, we may now have

a situation where the right feel disenfranchised and if we do essentially have four parties then there may be big questions about whether britain's electoral system is providing that sort of stability. a year ago it seemed perfectly reasonable to say that islamic state, the extremist group which ten years ago established what it called an islamist caliphate based in mosul, was finished. the number of attacks which are carried out was negligible. it was hunted and harried everywhere. but this year has been entirely different. is staged massive suicide bombings in iran injanuary, shootings in turkey, and attacks in russia, including onejust turkey, and attacks in russia, including one just the other day. so why are is doing this now? i sought

6:42 am
gradually pivot towards africa, sub—saharan africa. and they had branches in nigeria, drc, the sahel which is in burkina faso and mali. in mozambique. the philippines, they have a branch in the philippines and afghanistan. and so the idea was that in the middle east they were under a lot of pressure from the us led coalition, but they still claim to be a caliphate. they have spread across the world. but to be a caliphate. they have spread across the world.— across the world. but the thing i find difficult — across the world. but the thing i find difficult to _ across the world. but the thing i find difficult to get _ across the world. but the thing i find difficult to get my _ across the world. but the thing i find difficult to get my head - across the world. but the thing i i find difficult to get my head around is that they loathe hamas, for instance, they loathe the taliban. how come, you would think they would want to get them in to one big movement? iii want to get them in to one big movement?— want to get them in to one big movement? , ., ., ., ., movement? if you are following the hardest activity _ movement? if you are following the hardest activity you _ movement? if you are following the hardest activity you will _ movement? if you are following the hardest activity you will know - movement? if you are following the hardest activity you will know one . hardest activity you will know one of the key features is that there is an intense rivalry between the jihadist groups. but in is it is very simple, al-qaeda is very pragmatic, it has messages of
6:43 am
conciliatory messages towards hamas, even though they also don't like hamas, but i think now is the time to set aside our differences and have a united front against israel, against the west. in terms of their goals, i think what you hardest mostly want is domination, they want to have a state that is ruled by sharia law, and that would be restricted, it is not a taliban state in afghanistan, that is all they want, it is an expansionist project. is is simple in lists —— in the way that they say you are with us or against us. they don't have any allies or partners, they hate the taliban as you said, they hate al-qaeda and they are engaged in a infighting with al-qaeda, with the taliban, with boko haram, and the same with hamas. so is actually, with the conflict in gaza, they were very clear to message to palestinians and say all of the so—called jihad you have been doing
6:44 am
in the resistance all those past years, it is for nothing. you won't die a martyr, because you are fighting for a nationalist agenda. fight with us because we are fighting a religious war. you can't fighting a religious war. you can't fight over borders, over territory, of identity, that is all nationalist. you have to fightjihad for god. is nationalist. you have to fight 'ihad for god. , ., , , ., �* nationalist. you have to fight 'ihad forgod. , ., , , ., �* ~' for god. is that why they don't like the taliban — for god. is that why they don't like the taliban in _ for god. is that why they don't like the taliban in afghanistan - for god. is that why they don't like the taliban in afghanistan to? - for god. is that why they don't like the taliban in afghanistan to? it i for god. is that why they don't like the taliban in afghanistan to? it isj the taliban in afghanistan to? it is a turf war and _ the taliban in afghanistan to? it 3 a turf war and these are warlords, especially in the case of is. they want ultimate domination and they were really embarrassed when at the same time that they lost their territory, or the caliphate, the taliban managed to come back to rule. so that was a big blow for them in terms of the ideology because there is that rivalry in terms of ideology and methods and tactics, and in that case the taliban seemed to be winning, at least in the terms of now they control a whole country and is just lost that the so—called state they had. why haven't there been more attacks in the west? is

6:46 am
exchange for promises on the taliban that they would guarantee human rights, including the education of women and girls. there were appalling scenes in cable as the taliban took power. and over the time since then, most if not all of the promises they made to president ryan's administration have been broken. —— kabul. for decades the bbc has been one of the main sources of information which afghans have turned to. but what is the situation down like, now, particularly for women? the well—known afghan broadcaster shazia hier came to britain when the taliban took over. now she broadcasts to afghanistan from london. —— shazia haya. it is a prison. they have no access to anything. we don't have our rights. we cannot work, we cannot earn

6:51 am
have been dying as a result. in the us states of maryland and virginia, towns and cities have been recording shocking new levels of heat. so why is all this happening? in one of the consequences likely to be? i turned to kate lamble, who presents the bbc programme the climate question. people always died from heat exposure. because our body is constantly trying to regulate temperature and the hotter it gets the harder it is for our bodies to do it. what climate change is doing is it is making it is more frequent. what might have been a one and 100 year event becomes the one in ten year event becomes the one in ten year event, oran year event becomes the one in ten year event, or an every year event, depending on how much warning dominate warming we allowed to happen and the choices we make now. going back to tokyo, if you remember athletes fainting at the finish line, not because of the exercise,
6:52 am
but because of the heat. there has been a report in the past few weeks and the president of the world athletics foundation dominic organisation said climate change should be seen as an existential threat to sport. you think about the tour de france, athletes suffering from heat exhaustion. there are lots of questions about what we can do about that, if we can move outdoor events to cooler parts of the day, in the morning or the evening, taking more breaks. there are suggestions that specific events like the triathlon should have a heat limit on it. so if the water gets over a certain temperature, then that part of the event will be delayed or even cancelled. if we achieve the paris agreement, which means limiting global temperatures to preferably 1.5 degrees rise, that will be 5% of the future population who live in these areas of extreme temperature. and if we stick with our current policies, we change nothing from now on, that will leave us to 2.7 degrees global temperature
6:53 am
rise. that would be 20% of the global population living in areas with an average year round temperature of 29 degrees or more. are you an optimist? i temperature of 29 degrees or more. are you an optimist?— are you an optimist? i think i a measured _ are you an optimist? i think i a measured optimist. _ are you an optimist? i think i a measured optimist. in - are you an optimist? i think i a measured optimist. in the - are you an optimist? i think i a j measured optimist. in the near are you an optimist? i think i a - measured optimist. in the near term we know that we will have to adapt to this temperatures. we�*ve talked about this at the moment, and you can see this happening around the world and you see places like australia, parts of australia that are talking about how they can build houses and bandar cruz to keep houses and bandar cruz to keep houses cooler. these are things not happening in ten years, but we�*re dealing them now. == happening in ten years, but we're dealing them now.— happening in ten years, but we're dealing them now. -- ban dark roofs. will be possible _ dealing them now. -- ban dark roofs. will be possible to _ dealing them now. -- ban dark roofs. will be possible to get _ dealing them now. -- ban dark roofs. will be possible to get the _ will be possible to get the air—conditioning that we need in pakistan, in but also in the us? it is not there will be ten air—conditioning units sold every second for the next ten years, which is an astonishing number. it requires this energy and people in the us have been warned about blackouts during heat waves in the

6:55 am
the long—term decision to move out of the area altogether. but we don�*t yet have the adaptation. how we can change, change the world around us, and how we live our lives, under our belts out. so we come to the point where i think, i mean, india has just built its first dedicated history of emergency unit. i have friends who _ history of emergency unit. i have friends who are _ history of emergency unit. i have friends who are absolutely - history of emergency unit. i have friends who are absolutely in - friends who are absolutely in despair about the whole thing and i have other friends who i suspect, like you, think, ok, it may not be 100% perfect, but ourfuture, it could easily be liveable, if we meet just fairly small changes.— just fairly small changes. when you talk to climate _ just fairly small changes. when you talk to climate scientists, _ just fairly small changes. when you talk to climate scientists, they - just fairly small changes. when you talk to climate scientists, they say| talk to climate scientists, they say it will be really hard to meet 1.5, even two degrees, which is what the paris agreement says. what they do say is even if you go over the target, it doesn�*t mean that nothing matters anymore, it doesn�*t mean that we let everything go. because every 10th of a degree makes a difference. every10th every 10th of a degree makes a difference. every 10th of the degree reduces the chance of extreme
6:56 am
events, it keeps 140 million people from living in areas of the world which have average chapters over 29 degrees, extremely high temperatures. because every 10th of a degree matters, there are a lot of climate scientists who would say that even if that had my number, the 1.5 is breached, doesn�*t mean we should drop our hands and say "oh, well, we tried, nothing else matters," it means that we should be fighting her degree and every little bit exit to the future. kate fighting her degree and every little bit exit to the future.— bit exit to the future. kate lamble from the bbc's — bit exit to the future. kate lamble from the bbc's the _ bit exit to the future. kate lamble from the bbc's the climate - bit exit to the future. kate lamble i from the bbc's the climate question. from the bbc�*s the climate question. sadly that is the end of this season of unspoken world. we�*ll back in the autumn stop in between now and then, it sounds from what kate says is that the northern hemisphere will have a pretty fierce summer in terms of weather. —— unspun world. in terms of other things, too, may be. my terms of other things, too, may be. my guess is it will become clear

over the summer months which way the ukraine war is going. already you can see more confident way the ukrainians are feeling in the knowledge that their weapons and cash which nato and especially the us are giving them are starting shift the balance a little. senior british and american officials were saying publicly and privatelyjust a few months ago that russian forces could well be threatening cares, the ukrainian capital, by the end of this summer. nobody seems to be saying that now. —— threatening kyiv. one of 2024�*s other great questions won�*t have been answered by the time we are back on air, which of two elderly men will be the 47th president of the united states, assuming that isjoe biden, the 46th president, will have resisted pressure to stand aside. france, on
6:58 am
the basis of the current opinion polls, may well be run by a deeply uneasy combination of a centrist president and a hard right, and maybe even a hard left government. britain is likely to be run by the labour party by the autumn, but i reported on the 1982 british election, which in spite of all opinion polls the conservatives underjohn major actually one. opinion polls can be more about which leader the voters like or don�*t like, ratherthan which leader the voters like or don�*t like, rather than which party they will actually end up voting for. mostly, of course, they are the same thing, but not absolutely always. that is it from me and the superb unspun team. until we meet

reading from the teleprompter with a passion that was all too absent the night before. i know what millions of americans know. when you get knocked down, you get back up! it was a far cry from the rasping and rambling performance on the debate stage that was all too often painful to watch. everything we have to do with... look, if... we finally beat medicare. it has left his party in a state of crisis. yet despite rumblings about replacing their candidate, publicly at least, democrats are circling the wagons. referring to his own lacklustre performance in a presidential debate in 2012, joe biden�*s former boss barack obama tweeted: despite being just three years younger thanjoe biden, donald trump has consistently condemned his rival
7:03 am
as too old to be re—elected. but addressing supporters in virginia, he said the question was less one of age and more one of competence. the question every voter should be asking themselves today is not whetherjoe biden can survive a 90 minute debate performance, but whether america can survive four more years of crooked joe biden in the white house. crowd boos and the calls forjoe biden to pull out of the presidential race are growing. this the headline in an editorial in the new york times, which goes on to declare mr biden is not the man he was four years ago. i don�*t think so... the word from the biden camp is that their candidate has no intention whatsoever of pulling out of the race. but much may depend on how he fares going forward and what the opinion polls make of his debate performance. david willis, bbc news.

it is coming up to 7.05. you have more on the prime minister�*s reaction to the undercover filming by reform campaigners yesterday. in his reaction was to the reported racist remarks that were said and filmed on camera. now reform uk leader garage has insisted that secret filming which caught one the party�*s campaigners using racist language about the prime minister was set up. the footage has fronted condemnation from other party leaders. in a special edition of bbc question time nigel farrow suggested the channel for video could have been arranged to smear his party. —— nigel virage. the leader of reform uk, nigel farage. the final weekend of the election campaign and for one party leader, difficult questions are piling up. what is it about you and your party that attracts racists and extremists, whether you say you want them or not? i've done more to drive
7:05 am
the far right out of british politics than anyone else alive. i took on the bnp just over decade ago, i said to their voters, if this is a protest vote but you don't support their racist agenda, don't vote for them, vote for me, and we destroyed them. nigel farage was challenged last night over homophobic and racist remarks made by reform uk canvassers secretly recorded by channel 4 news. one campaigner implied gay people were paedophiles and another that army recruits should shoot at people crossing the channel in small boats and use a racist insult to describe the prime minister. nigel farage insisted that man was an actor, and described the channel 4 report as a deliberate attempt to smear his party. this was a comedy act and it was designed to hurt us and, sadly, sadly, some people believe it. let me promise you. so who do you think would have done this? i want nothing to do with people like him, and he has nothing to do with us.
7:06 am
he�*s somebody who turned up and we didn�*t know who he was and by sheer coincidence, he happened to get teamed up with channel 4. elsewhere, farage was questioned about his party�*s manifesto and how he would pay for his promises. there is a lot of stuff in your manifesto but how do you plan to pay for all this stuff? we can comfortably save £30 billion a year by growing up and being sensible. and recognising, if we want carbon free energy, reliable not intermittent carbon free energy, the only way to go is a small modular nuclear reactors. applause also fielding questions on stage last night was someone whose views could not be more different — adrian ramsay, the co—leader of the green party. i think we all know that we need to step up action on the climate crisis, both to adapt to the changes that are already happening, but to avoid the runaway climate change that will affect us all dreadfully if we don�*t get to grips with it. and he defended proposing to raise some taxes in his party�*s manifesto. talking about £5 extra
7:07 am
a week for someone earning £55,000 — now what would that get you? at the moment, people cannot access an nhs dentist, and if you can afford to do so you may be forking out a private dentist. how much does that cost you over a year? how much does it cost you over a year to pay extortionate train ticket prices because we�*re not investing in our railways, or to have to heat your home and see your bills going up and up every month because we have the leakiest homes in europe and we have not insulated them? so we are setting out a different vision where we ask those earning a little bit more to pay a little bit more, including the multimillionaires and billionaires, but it is about a different type of society. the liberal democrat leader sir ed davey will finish his election campaign the five—day battle bus tour from john o�*groats to land�*s end. for all parties, the journey to polling day is nearly over. laila nathoo, bbc news. police in tenerife are appealing for volunteers to mount what they have described as a massive search today for the british teenagerjay slater.

7:24 am
a lot of cancellations yesterday. time and again the airport saying sorry, we couldn't find any hotel rooms, and you will have to fend for yourself — everybody who sleeps at an airport on the floor is saving the airlines money, and it is something i think the civil aviation authority might want to address if we do get another summer of discontent. obviously, hope forthe best, but be prepared for delays and disruption. and we haven't even talked about the aer lingus pilots strike which is causing about 100 cancellations. this will affect a lot of people from northern ireland, beginning their summer holidays by travelling down to dublin or from great britain to dublin to connect with transatlantic flights. it is a tough time. you might feel that your boarding pass has turned into something of a lottery ticket. i certainly do. i'm supposed to be flown back tonight.— certainly do. i'm supposed to be flown back tonight. simon, good mornin: , flown back tonight. simon, good morning, charlie _ flown back tonight. simon, good morning, charlie here. - flown back tonight. simon, good morning, charlie here. i- flown back tonight. simon, good

morning, charlie here. i suspect| morning, charlie here. i suspect that when simon calder shows up at the easyjet desk and says you need to book the easyjet desk and says you need to hook me right now, what i stand here, the flight on british airways, going to pisa, i suspect when you do that, it works, because they know who you are and they would be worried. if the rest of us go to the desk, i mean, talk me through the practicalities. do you have to stand there and say you have to book it now, i need to see it done, you need to pay for it. how does it work? charlie, first of all, if i ever say anything that could be interpreted as "do you know who i am? " tech me out and shoot me. but yes, the trouble is, of course, a lot of the ground staff are working for separate ground handling organisations. they would typically say "go on the app and rebook yourself. " the apple say there is a flight on this alone in two days' time. they won't say that british airways has a flight later on. you can call the call centre and sometimes that will work. and sometimes that will work. and sometimes they will book your
7:26 am
flight. but all too often it is a question of having two enormous resources as a traveller. firstly, lots of patience, secondly, an industrialised credit card limit, because you are going to quite possibly have to spend hundreds of pounds whether that is on a new flight or on a hotel, and then you claim it back from the airport — airline. but you always need to give them a chance to rebook you a flight. and if they don't, you can take that into your own hands. it is awful. there are loads of people, for instance, checking on some of the cancellations yesterday, in turkey, in the canary islands, in cyprus. if you are with a cancellation from edinburgh to gatwick, it is unfortunate, but you can find other ways of travelling. if you straddle a couple of thousand miles away from home, it is tricky. many of us want to begin our holidays. although, of course, iam always on one. holidays. although, of course, i am always on one-— always on one. always good to talk to ou, always on one. always good to talk to you. simon- _ always on one. always good to talk to you, simon. your—

7:33 am
important in ending vexatious prosecutions of our veterans is something sir keir starmer wants to reverse, which would lead our veterans over —— open to prosecutions by vexatious ideas in charges that would leave many sadly in the position of dennis hutchings who in 2021, still being pursued for the umpteenth time by people who had already investigated him many times before. mr already investigated him many times before. ~ . ., before. mr tugendhat, given what you are sa inc before. mr tugendhat, given what you are sa in: a before. mr tugendhat, given what you are saying a moment _ before. mr tugendhat, given what you are saying a moment ago _ before. mr tugendhat, given what you are saying a moment ago and - before. mr tugendhat, given what you are saying a moment ago and the - are saying a moment ago and the respect that military personnel will be given today and i appreciate the point you make about that being ongoing process, do you feel as a politician, comfortable when you hear it brought in, if you like, section —— electioneering, when you hear your party leader, the prime minister, saying in not so many words that if you vote labour this country will be less safe. that make you feel comfortable?— you feel comfortable? politics is about choosing, _ you feel comfortable? politics is about choosing, it _ you feel comfortable? politics is about choosing, it is _ you feel comfortable? politics is about choosing, it is about - you feel comfortable? politics is i about choosing, it is about choices,
7:34 am
it is about decisions and it is about the ideas that you bring into the public life, because it is about making decisions on behalf of the british people as to where you spend money, where you put resources, where you put effort and wayward commission. —— where you put commission. —— where you put commission. and it has always been a priority for conservatives but this prime minister has made it more clear with his commitment to 2.5%. and there is another way of looking at that which is a form of scaremongering, and playing interferes, that people have, that this electioneering turns into some form of scaremongering, and if i may end —— may add into that, the prime minister has used the phrase" don't surrender to labour", a number of times, it is a phrase that has been used a lot and again i ask you, your military experience, and you are a conservative, well aware of that, thatis conservative, well aware of that, that is why we are talking today,
7:35 am
again, is that language you are comfortable with?— comfortable with? choice in an election is _ comfortable with? choice in an election is who _ comfortable with? choice in an election is who you _ comfortable with? choice in an election is who you want - comfortable with? choice in an election is who you want to - comfortable with? choice in an election is who you want to be | comfortable with? choice in an i election is who you want to be set in number ten, who you want to take decisions on your behalf, it is completely correct that all candidates who seek that office, it is an enormous honour but also a huge burden, arkley would have a stand and how they feel the decisions but whoever sits in number ten are going to be made going forward. that's why i think it is right that the prime minister sets out the real choice for the british people. it would not be honest or decent of him not to do so, and it is quite right that sir keir starmer is quite right that sir keir starmer is held to account. this is a guy who tried to makejeremy corbyn prime minister twice, this is a guy who was perfectly happy voting or rather sitting with others who voted against our nuclear deterrent and indeed has put two people into his shadow cabinet who voted... iunlith shadow cabinet who voted... with resect, shadow cabinet who voted... with respect. mr _ shadow cabinet who voted... with respect, mrtugendhat, do you generallyjust i genuinely think under labour we are not safe? the choices labour— under labour we are not safe? the: choices labour will under labour we are not safe? t't;a: choices labour will make under labour we are not safe? the: choices labour will make will under labour we are not safe? tt9 choices labour will make will make us more vulnerable to foreign pressure. i think that is unfortunate and i hope very much sir
7:36 am
keir starmer will change his mind and that he will actually see sense before he finally gets to polling day, so the british people have a choice between two parties equally committed to our defence, equally committed to our defence, equally committed to our defence, equally committed to nuclear deterrent, equally committed to our armed forces veterans but i am afraid what he had said about the northern ireland legacy bill, the people he was sitting with on his front bench against nuclear deterrent and his failure to commit to 2.5% by 2030 leaves me somewhat in doubt. t failure to commit to 2.596 by 2030 leaves me somewhat in doubt. i want to ask ou leaves me somewhat in doubt. i want to ask you about _ leaves me somewhat in doubt. i want to ask you about the _ leaves me somewhat in doubt. i want to ask you about the future, - leaves me somewhat in doubt. i want to ask you about the future, and - leaves me somewhat in doubt. i want to ask you about the future, and i - to ask you about the future, and i will only phrase this in the way that some of your colleagues within the conservative party have raised it, which is there is every chance you might lose this election. in the event of that happening, will tom tugendhat want to become leader of the conservative party? there tugendhat want to become leader of the conservative party?— the conservative party? there are five da s the conservative party? there are five days of— the conservative party? there are five days of this _ the conservative party? there are five days of this campaign - the conservative party? there are five days of this campaign still - the conservative party? there are five days of this campaign still to | five days of this campaign still to 90, five days of this campaign still to go, and i am campaigning for conservative leadership across this country. first and most important one is to get a conservative
7:37 am
minister into number ten, i think rishi sunak should stay, he started a huge transformation, he has brought down inflation, had the fastest growing economy in the g7, all these things are fantastic achievements and really important that we continue them. i'm also campaigning to get conservative mps into office across our country because every single conservative voice is a voice for your community, a voice for yourfamily voice is a voice for your community, a voice for your family and a voice lower taxes and protect our borders, that's what i am campaigning for. and the choice is very clear, sir keir starmer is all about higher taxes, he is all about being loose on borders and being more interventionist in regulations in your life, i don't think that is the right answer, that's why i am a conservative, that's why i'm campaigning for conservatives across the whole of the uk. t campaigning for conservatives across the whole of the uk.— the whole of the uk. i understand the whole of the uk. i understand the way you _ the whole of the uk. i understand the way you have _ the whole of the uk. i understand the way you have answered - the whole of the uk. i understand the way you have answered that l the way you have answered that question, ifully the way you have answered that question, i fully understand. the way you have answered that question, ifully understand. if i did understand correctly on what you just said, did you say that rishi sunak should remain party leader regardless of what happens in four

7:39 am

7:40 am
yes, and it was interesting hearing some of your comments there that the biggest talking points really for england are those incidents that have come off the pitch, it says a lot about the football and the performances that have come from england so far. but after the pause, the last 16 match is due to get under way, we will see two games being played every day for the next four days, england in action tomorrow up against slovakia, and significantly they will be keeping an eye on the first match today, because they will face, if they can get through to the quarterfinals, the winner of italy and switzerland which gets the knockouts under way, and germany under way against denmark. what have you made of the tournament, journalist, what have germans made about the performance of the team so far? tn germans made about the performance of the team so far?— of the team so far? in general i think the hype _ of the team so far? in general i think the hype and _ of the team so far? in general i think the hype and just - of the team so far? in general i think the hype and just the - of the team so far? in general i - think the hype and just the euphoria concerning the tournament has grown since the opening game, germany versus scotland, it was a great start because germany... tlat

last chance. although mark cavendish doesn't look like a man carrying the weight of history. in fact, the recently noted sir mark was in a relaxed mood as florence prepares to host the world's biggest bike race. it isn't like playing roulette where if i don't win here, i don't lose 34 stages. do not have been? i know it makes a nice story to say that, but it is that simple. tie makes a nice story to say that, but it is that simple.— it is that simple. he originally had lanned to it is that simple. he originally had planned to be _ it is that simple. he originally had planned to be at _ it is that simple. he originally had planned to be at home _ it is that simple. he originally had planned to be at home this - it is that simple. he originally had i planned to be at home this summer before the 2023 to he announced it was the last, he wanted to spend more time with his family. it is presented suddenly and unexpectedly, with a broken collarbone. mark cavendish and his astana team agreed it was worth one more year and one more come back. so at the age of 39, he will begin his 15th tour this morning. when it comes to the yellow jersey, jonas vingegaard wants to make it three in a row, but nobody really knows what to expect,

7:54 am
the words, they market research the words, they test them to death to check if they are for this group or that group, then the politician learns them off pat. sometimes you can see them read the words. myjob is to try to escape that, to put a question that it doesn't allow them to do that, or to put a question that highlights the fact that they are really answering the question, may be talking about roughly the same subject, but not really answering what i put in a question. sometimes, i interrupt, because sometimes myjob is to say "hold on, you aren't answering that point. " if i didn't interrupt, the people who complain that i do interact would feel a bit better, no doubt, but there would be other people who would say "for goodness sake, get the guy to answer the question. they are avoiding the question. " we are always, innocence, on a tightrope, with the risk of falling off on one side of the other. too much noise
7:55 am
interrupting is hard to listen to, but too little makes you feel you are just getting a broadcast press release, that you are just hearing what they want to tell you, without a real challenge.— what they want to tell you, without a real challenge. supporters of both rishi sunak and _ a real challenge. supporters of both rishi sunak and keir _ a real challenge. supporters of both rishi sunak and keir starmer - rishi sunak and keir starmer complained you were too hard on their man. did you feel the need to be tougher than in the past? tia. t be tougher than in the past? no, i think ou be tougher than in the past? no, i think you should _ be tougher than in the past? no, i think you should be _ be tougher than in the past? no, i think you should be tough. - be tougher than in the past? no, i think you should be tough. i - be tougher than in the past? thy, t think you should be tough. i think if people are coming on prime—time bbc one, the people watching want them to feel challenged. if you just want to hear what they have to say, there are many, many ways you can do that, now, given the internet. if you want to know what is in the manifesto, you can read it with a click of the button. you don't even need to go down to the newsagency to buy it. if you want to watch their speech, you can click on the social media feed. you can pretty much here without challenge with the party is saying if you want to make the effort to do it. so our responsibility, as the bbc, is to put questions that we think the viewer, the listener, would want to
7:56 am
hear and see put. and that is what i tried to do. with rishi sunak, that is largely going to be about his record, because the conservatives have been in powerfor a long time. for keir starmer, it is largely about changes in his position. one minute he was arguing one thing, that appear to be arguing another. there, you have to say, they didn't complain at all. i chatted with these guys after the interviews and i have a pretty shrewd sense of whether they feel annoyed, whether they feel that i had been rude to them or not. quite often i am looking at social media tell me how often i am looking at e—mails or messages that have come into this programme, and i want to say "look, ijust had a gap of tea with the guy that you say has had such a miserable time. they are perfectly happy with what happened." itrulhat happy with what happened." what ha--ens happy with what happened." what happens when _ happy with what happened." what happens when there _ happy with what happened." what happens when there is a dispute over the facts in an interview, as there was with rishi sunak over whether taxes had gone up under his leadership?— taxes had gone up under his leadershi? ~ . , ., ., .,

8:03 am
crowd, joe biden took to the stage in the swing state of north carolina, seemingly unfazed by the torrent of bad headlines his disjointed debate performance had generated. crowd: joe! joe! joe! joe! folks... i don't walk as easy as i used to. i don't speak as smoothly as i used to. i don't debate as well as i used to. but i know what i do know. i know how to tell the truth! crowd: yeah! he seemed for all the world like a new man, reading from the teleprompter with a passion that had been all too absent the night before. i know, like millions of americans know, when you get knocked down, you get back up. it was a far cry from the rasping and rambling performance on the debate stage that was all too often painful to watch. everything we have to do with, uh...
8:04 am
look... if... we finally beat medicare. it's left his party in a state of crisis. yet, despite rumblings about replacing their candidate, publicly at least democrats are circling the wagons. referring to his own lacklustre performance in a presidential debate in 2012, joe biden's former boss barack obama tweeted, "bad debate nights happen. trust me, i know. but this election is still a choice between someone who has fought for ordinary folks his entire life and someone who only cares about himself." despite being just three years younger thanjoe biden, donald trump has consistently condemned his rival as too old to be re—elected. but addressing supporters in virginia, he said the question was less one of age and more one of competence. the question every voter should be asking themselves today is not
8:05 am
whetherjoe biden can survive a 90 minute debate performance, but whether america can survive four more years of crooked joe biden in the white house. crowd b00. and the calls forjoe biden to pull out of the presidential race are growing. this, the headline in an editorial in the new york times, which goes on to declare, mr biden is not the man he was four years ago. i don't think so! the word from the biden camp is that their candidate has no intention whatsoever of pulling out of the race, but much may depend on how he fares going forward and what the opinion polls make of his debate performance. david willis, bbc news, los angeles. crowd: four more years! let's turn our attention to the election campaign here. five days to go until voting starts, and this focus on reform campaigners. take us
8:06 am
through what is happening. the reform uk leader, nigel farage, has insisted that secret filming which caught one of the party's campaigners using racist language about the prime minister, was a 'set up'. the footage has prompted condemnation from other party leaders. in a special edition of bbc question time, mr farage suggested the channel four video could have been arranged to smear his party. our political correspondent leila nathoo reports. the leader of reform uk, nigel farage. the final weekend of the election campaign and for one party leader, difficult questions are piling up. what is it about you and your party that attracts racists and extremists, whether you say you want them or not? i've done more to drive the far right out of british politics than anybody else alive. i took on the bnp just over a decade ago. i said to their voters, if this is a protest vote but you don't support their racist agenda, don't vote for them, vote for me. and we destroyed them.
8:07 am
nigel farage was challenged last night over homophobic and racist remarks made by reform uk canvassers, secretly recorded by channel four news. one campaigner implied gay people were paedophiles, and another suggested army recruits should shoot at people crossing the channel in small boats, and used a racist insult to describe the prime minister. mr farage insisted that man was an "actor", and described the channel four report as a deliberate attempt to smear his party. this was a comedy act, but it was designed to hurt us and sadly — sadly — some people believe it. let me promise you... so who do you think would have done this, nigel farage? i want nothing to do with people like him and he has nothing to do with us. he's somebody who turned up. we didn't know who he was, and by sheer coincidence, he happened to get teamed up with channel four. elsewhere, nigel farage was questioned about his party's manifesto and how he would pay for his promises. there's a lot of stuff in your manifesto, but how do you actually plan to pay for all this stuff? we can comfortably save £30 billion
8:08 am
a year by growing up and being sensible, and recognising if we want carbon free energy — reliable, not intermittent — carbon free energy, the only way to go is small modular nuclear reactors. also fielding questions on stage last night was someone whose views could not be more different. adrian ramsay, the co—leader of the green party. i think we all know that we need |to step up action on the climate| crisis, both to adapt to the changes that are already happening, - but to avoid the runaway climate change that will affect us - all dreadfully if we don't get to grips with this. i and he defended proposing to raise some taxes in his party's manifesto. we're talking about £5 extra a week for someone earning £55,000. - now, what would that get you? at the moment, people can't access an nhs dentist, - and if you can afford to do so, you might be forking out- for a private dentist. well, how much does that cost you over a year? - how much does it cost you over a year to pay extortionate -
8:09 am
train ticket prices? because we're not - investing in our railways. or to have to heat your home - and see your bills going up and up every month, because we've got the leakiest homes in europe . and we haven't insulated them? so we're setting out a different vision, sonia, for where yes, i we ask those earning a little bit more to pay a little bit more, i including the multi millionaires and billionaires, but it's- about a different type of society. the liberal democrat leader, sir ed davey, meanwhile, will finish his election campaign with a five—day battle bus tour from john o'groats to land's end. for all parties, the journey to polling day is nearly over. leila nathoo, bbc news. our political correspondent, damian grammaticas, joins us now. the reaction to the initial video, the party leaders all reacted. it's not something that is going to go away quickly? tia. not something that is going to go away quickly?— away quickly? no, exactly right. this is something _ away quickly? no, exactly right. this is something that _ away quickly? no, exactly right. this is something that has - away quickly? no, exactly right. j this is something that has really put the focus on nigel farage, his leadership, his party, the
8:10 am
candidates and the activists, and what appears to be the lack of proper scrutiny of some of those. you saw in that question time debate last night, where nigel farage faced hostile questioning from some in the audience. what it means is interesting for this election, it has a slightly change the dynamic in a way. it has put him on the back foot. he is having to answer these questions. you heard him doubling down on those approaches he is taken, batting them away, saying it was a setup in some it was an actor, and it's designed to hit his party. the individual involved has said that his acting work is separate from his activism for the party, but uncomfortable questions for nigel farage. equally, ithink, what is interesting with this, the response of the other parties are particularly rishi sunak, who came out very strongly to criticise it, he directly took on some of the racism language. that puts him on the front foot. it might even get
8:11 am
him some sympathy. it forces the conservatives to ask people, voters, to face the question, look at the party, reform, the threat it poses to the conservatives and question if you want to vote for them or not, think about it carefully. it's forcing focus on this issue. thanks so much, damian _ forcing focus on this issue. thanks so much, damian grammaticas. i police in tenerife are appealing for volunteers to mount what they've described as a massive search today for the missing british teenagerjay slater. the 19—year—old was last seen on the 17th ofjune in a national park in a remote part of the spanish island. let's get the latest now from our reporter nick garnett. this is the first appeal by the police since jay disappeared. it's not for information, it's for people to come to this beauty spot and started searching the countryside around them. they are asking for as many people as they can, but they are also after people who are very good at it, they are after
8:12 am
firefighters who might be on the island, paramedics, civil protection workers, hikers who know what they are doing, you have the right equipment. because this is a brutal landscape. it's a volcanic island, and it's very easy to trip, very easy to tumble, very easy to break an ankle of your uncle on some of the path is. they are asking people to not go on the path because it looks like jay might have wandered off the path into the wider area. there may be something that will lead them to know where he is. some item may have been dropped, some sign or clue. up until now there has not been anything. they are asking people to go into the undergrowth, the countryside, to work and sweep through this area in as many numbers as they possibly can to try to make as they possibly can to try to make a huge difference in this search operation which, up until now, has not had any success. they have been putting up drones, helicopters, search dogs, mountain rescue teams all over the place. so far, nothing

has been found. and this is an attempt, really, to really push and get people up here. the appeal went out yesterday lunchtime and it is hoped that people have heard that. it's been in local media in the last few hours and it has been on social media. the hope is that this will actually move people to come up here, spend the day working through the three valleys that they have been working through so far without success in the hope that they do find something. and they can help bring the family want, and bring jay and his family together so they can go home together. early results from iran's presidential election suggest a hardline candidate, saeed jalili, has taken a narrow lead. voters in the country went to the polls yesterday to elect a replacement for ebrahim raisi, who was killed in a helicopter crash earlier this year. if no candidate gets more than 50% of the vote, the election will go to a second round next week. some flights to and from the republic of ireland are set to be disrupted today, due to strike
8:14 am
action by aer lingus pilots. the strike, which is part of an ongoing dispute over pay, began at five o'clock this morning and will last for eight hours. the airline says there are "a number of options" for passengers affected. if you were watching yesterday you'll know a pair of blue suede shoes worn by elvis presley were being sold at auction. well, they've sold — for £120,000. the shoes were worn by the king of rock and roll throughout the 19505 — including during some of his performances and tv appearances. auctioneer andrew aldridge described them as "an exceptional piece of showbusiness, music and popular culture memorabilia". here's elizabeth rizzini with a look at this morning's weather. you can risk wearing suede shoes in some parts of the country? i would wear them in fife in
8:15 am
scotland, beautiful blue skies to match those suede shoes. a lovely weather watcher picture sent in earlier this morning. we have a bit of a rain sandwich today. the rain is across central areas, but to the north of the front and to the south of the front, there will be a lot of sunny skies around. perhaps some of that sunshine a bit hazy towards the south as we head through the afternoon. through the weekend, there is a lot of dry weather around. a very usable weekend of weather. cooler than it was through the week. there will be some sunny spells. a little bit cloudier across glastonbury, and cooler than it was yesterday. we should avoid the rain, which is mostly a little bit further northwards. across north wales and north—west england, the rain will be gradually pushing further eastwards as we head through the afternoon. it won't really be too heavy. i don't think it will be heavy towards eastern areas, mostly light and patchy year. sunshine to the north and south, some showers across north—west scotland. here, we've still got a bit of a breeze going on across much of scotland. elsewhere,
8:16 am
the wind is a lot lighter than yesterday. temperatures are lower too. generally mid to high teens. this shot of warm air into central and southern england, perhaps 2425 celsius. it is the last of the very warm days here. in tonight, the weather front gradually pushing further southwards and eastwards. more cloud, some drizzle, one or two may across kent and east sussex. cooler further north and there will be clear spells around, and then tomorrow there will be plenty of dry weather. in fact, it is mostly dry. a few isolated showers are springing up, mostly up and down the spine of the uk, perhaps more cloud than we saw yesterday. a lot of the cloud is going to melt away into the evening, and a cooler north—westerly wind. the temperatures will be a little bit lower. tomorrow, the start of wimbledon, it is looking dry for most of the day. we look out towards
8:17 am
the west to see this weather front gradually starting to ease its way further eastwards. that will give spells of rain. it is looking quite unsettled as we head through much of next week. this rain is mostly for north—west scotland, where it will be heavier, a bit lighterfurther south. quite a lot of cloud ahead of it. temperatures will be rather disappointing, i'm afraid, for this time of year. for wimbledon, may be a bit of rain on monday evening. that is certainly a possibility. it should be largely dry by the time we get to tuesday. cloudy and a bit cool i think we can show a new portrait that has just been released of king charles, wearing military uniform, to commemorate armed forces day. the publication of the image coincides with a video message from queen camilla, who has released a rare national statement paying tribute to the efforts of the military. graham

8:19 am
we celebrate the service of men and women in our military and thank you all for everything you do to protect this country of ours. a message of support from queen camilla on armed forces day. in it, she remembers those who have made the ultimate sacrifice and celebrates what she calls the incredible bravery of the armed forces as they face different challenges around the world. earlier this month, the king and queen were in normandy for the 80th anniversary of d—day. they spent time talking to veterans, thanking them for their service in liberating europe from hitler�*s nazi regime. armed forces day is an annual celebration of personnel, service families, veterans and cadets in the armed forces community. a chance for the nation to come together and show its support at a wide range of events being held across the uk. queen camilla�*s father, major bruce shand, served with the 12th lancers in the second world war. the queen�*s message today is personal and intimate.
8:20 am
as the proud daughter of an army officer, i know something of the impact military life has on your loved ones. you too are heroes. in times of war and in times of peace, whether seen or unseen, our armed forces support and strengthen our nation. you�*re a source of inspiration, reassurance and pride and i salute you all. to mark armed forces day, buckingham palace have released this new photograph of the king in full ceremonial uniform as head of the armed forces. king charles has constantly praised the courage and resilience of service personnel. peter, you have been involved in setting up some of the events today.

will be repeated on a bit of a smaller scale in towns and cities all across the united kingdom. if you do want to go, there will be military parades and there will be fun fairs and fetes, pretty much anywhere you want to go to, to mark armed forces day. it�*s the morning after the night before. dua lipa performed hit after hit during her headline glastonbury festival slot last night. and as the crowds wake up for a second full day of live music, our entertainment correspondent, colin paterson has been taking a look at yesterday�*s highlights. a warning that this report contains some flashing images. # glastonbury, one more time! dua lipa with a triumphant headlining set. this was pulsating pop, performed to 100,000 people.
8:24 am
what have you made of it so far? oh, unbelievable. she smashed it. she�*s confident. a—mazing, incredible! all the way from california to see dua lipa. and she delivered! and, for the first time, a glastonbury headliner danced in the middle of the crowd by heading to a separate stage. there she is! highfive! everything was loud, booming. so much space. the crowd loves it. let's get physical! she said she's going to turn it into a nightclub _ and it was a nightclub. # catch me or i go houdini... # if you�*re ready for me, boy... earlier, sugababes attracted such a huge crowd at west holts, barriers were put in place to close off the entrances.
8:25 am
it was a case of one in, one out — much like the sugababes. # round, round, baby, round, round... it�*s the second time this has happened to them at the festival. two years ago the police shut down the area around the avalon tent while they were performing due to overcrowding. it strikes me they book you on the wrong stages. there is an obvious one that needs the sugababes on it. to be honest, you know what? it�*s actually quite nice. we�*ve worked our way up and every time we�*ve just kind of proved to ourselves that we have the great support. and if we do get the pyramid soon, you know, it will happen. it�*ll happen. i think after today, like, why not dream big? # i know how i feel about you now...# we also had one of those glastonbury moments, waiting backstage at the glade to interview gok wan. d:ream were about to end their set when we spotted a familiar face — their former keyboardist, professor brian cox. are you going on for the big one?
8:26 am
of course, because i think i can remember it. how does it feel to be back with d:ream? because i haven�*t done this song since 1997, so i think it was top of the pops 1997. so i think it�*s in e—flat. # things can only get better...# it was off the scale! yeah, it was great fun. absolutely off the scale. i think i remembered, it most of it. it was wonderful. i mean, it�*sjust, you know, look at that crowd, all the way back. how much of a dream have you just done? exactly, those were two ambitions when i was growing up, top of the pops, which i did, and then glastonbury. i�*ve got great news for you. you�*ve passed the audition. good. hello, glasonbury! and when gok wan arrived, he told us about his love of djing at the festival.
8:27 am
there is nothing like the glastonbury atmosphere. it is electric, it starts in your toes and it carries on all the way up to your ears. it is phenomenal. over at arcadia, fatboy slim was djing inside a giant dragonfly. how many glastonburys is it for you now? it�*s every one since 1996. take off a few fallow years. it�*s probably about 25 in a row, i think. it means a lot to you. too many to count. why does it matter so much to you? i just love it. i think this is the greatest collection of like—minded, beautiful people who just, for four days, we can live in this sort of utopian society where we can express ourselves, be free, be stupid and, you know, until we need to wash our clothes. now, he's a little bit rusty. and he�*d had a busy day. sarlier on the pyramid stage, during paul heaton�*s set, he was part of a hugely unexpected housemartins reunion — the hand they were both
8:28 am
in back in the �*80s. # what a good place to be...# 38 years ago i made my glastonbury debut on the pyramid stage with the housemartins, and paul beautifully asked me to come and join him on stage. so i got up and played happy hour, which was just a really emotional moment for me. when did you last perform together on stage anywhere? 1988. seriously, 1988? 1988. when the housemartins split up? you�*ve never been back on together? we did swear we would never reform. it�*s going to start the questions, isn�*t it? no! i can stop the rumours right now. happy hour indeed. glastonbury is ready for another 24 happy hours. colin patterson, bbc news. fabulous line—up, brilliant. you can watch glastonbury performances on the bbc iplayer and hear the latest on bbc sounds.
8:29 am
stopping the boats has been a major theme of the general election debates, with party leaders clashing over how it should be achieved. it�*s an issue that�*s particularly hard to ignore in dover, where migrants who�*ve risked their lives to cross the channel in the boats, are brought to shore. our correspondent simon jones has this report. the channel, the world�*s busiest shipping lane. there are no constituencies at sea, this stretch of water is not home to any voters, but what happens here has become a key election battleground because of the issue of small boats. fisherman matt coker regularly sees firsthand what�*s happening. the last one, i think i see had about 70 or 80 people on board, and that was a good ten or 11m long. pretty dangerous. well, they are, because they�*re massively overloaded. i mean, even a dinghy of that size, it�*s really playing with danger. when the weather is calm, you can stand on top of those famous white cliffs of dover and see
8:30 am
the border force and rnli bring groups of migrants to shore. some channel watchers even have clickers and literally count people in. it�*s become a very visible thing, which helps explain why politicians have become so exercised by the issue. so far this year, around 13,000 migrants have arrived by small boat, but that figure is dwarfed by the number of migrants coming legally. last year, net migration — the difference between the number of people arriving in the uk and leaving stood at 685,000. at this cafe in dover, migration in all its forms is certainly a hot topic. if they didn�*t let them in the country, you wouldn�*t have the problems we got. what problems? erm, housing, cost—of—living and everything like that. there's too many of them being brought in on our money,
8:31 am
really. it�*s been going on for such a long time and nobody�*s solved it. the cafe�*s owner, heather horne, used to work looking after child asylum—seekers. she thinks politicians are too quick to scapegoat. i think they use the immigrations to deflect real problems that we have in england. such as? as homeless people, rates, the price of everything. rishan, who came to the uk in the back of a lorry aged 17 and now has uk citizenship, is preparing to vote for the first time in a general election. now training to be a nurse, she says all the focus on immigration, particularly illegal immigration, can be dehumanising. it�*s always on the negative side. it�*s always in the way of the illegal, illegal, as if someone comes as a refugee is being like a criminal or trying to do something different than what it�*s supposed to be, rather than a human. basic things than just someone seeking safety in this country. so i guess it gives me a feel of upsetting and annoyed. the main political parties agree that people should not
8:32 am
be risking their lives in the channel on small boats. immigration is an issue, perhaps more than most, where there appears to be clear blue water between the parties. simon jones, bbc news. 0f of course there is a weekend of football to look forward to. the players have had time to rest. there has been criticism of england and pace and heat and for that or not they have the stamina. it is been quite the vacuum into which we have had to put things in some of that field by discussion of how england has played so far and i will talk shortly to dion dublin about that. we have got rid of eight teams and then we will get rid of another eight and that will leave us with eight and that will leave us with eight remaining. it�*s like day one,
8:33 am
isn�*t it? when you get to knock out, it�*s like everything that happened you can refreshingly start and i think england are one of the teams that will seek to try to use it for it and there are other teams will try to build on momentum they picked up try to build on momentum they picked up so far stopped switzerland we will see a little later on playing italy and the host germany. you have the cliche, it�*s one of those things that if the hosts do well the tournament does well must wear a big day for germany today? tithe tournament does well must wear a big day for germany today?— day for germany today? one of the bi thins day for germany today? one of the big things about — day for germany today? one of the big things about the _ day for germany today? one of the big things about the tournament i day for germany today? one of the j big things about the tournament so far as the atmosphere and all of the host cities in germany and we are here in dortmund where the host will play against denmark and we have danish fancier and plenty of german fans. —— fans of denmark. germany
8:34 am
started so well against scotland, demonstrating why they are one of the favourites this year. it feels like england�*s treatment has not really got going yet after some below par performances, it�*s all been a little flat and interestingly i guess the real drama and excitement for england has come inside camp, certainly as far as phil foden and anthony gordon are concerned. , ., , , phil foden and anthony gordon are concerned. , . , , ., concerned. this has been a tournament _ concerned. this has been a tournament with _ concerned. this has been a tournament with the - concerned. this has been a i tournament with the volume concerned. this has been a - tournament with the volume turned up. smash hits, big shocks, loads of goals. all set to a sensational soundtrack. germany has brought its gas out of their shells but now the competition which is a precarious point, the knockouts. one false move and it�*s over, the stakes keep getting higher. germany have started
8:35 am
confidently. their ambition give voice by their anthem. major tom, a 19805 postpunk tribute to space exploration. it is captured german imaginations. t exploration. it is captured german imaginations-— imaginations. i think it doesn't matter whether _ imaginations. i think it doesn't matter whether you _ imaginations. i think it doesn't matter whether you are - imaginations. i think it doesn't matter whether you are the i imaginations. i think it doesn't i matter whether you are the host imaginations. i think it doesn't - matter whether you are the host team are not, the expectation of finds lows with the same and there was want to see successful team and at the end i think if there is a big support and a good feeling when we see the pictures on the streets and try to keep going like that and try to produce that on the pitch. english eyes will be on berlin were switzerland face italy. the winners could play england if they beat slovakia on sunday. the reaction to slovenia on tuesday still echoes
8:36 am
around the squad but they have other things to concentrate on. phil foden has flown home, seen the birth of a child and flown back. anthony gordon has fallen off his bike. mikel child and flown back. anthony gordon has fallen off his bike. mike i was going downhill trying to take a video from my family and before i would knew it i was on the floor. to be honest, i don't really care about be honest, i don�*t really care about stuff like that. i think about it in a positive way. if people are negative it�*s only because they expect a lot from your, it is a positive thing so if they�*re doing that to start with you just need to perform and give people what they want to see. perform and give people what they want to see-— perform and give people what they want to see. . . , ., ,~ want to see. england are being asked to loosen up — want to see. england are being asked to loosen up as _ want to see. england are being asked to loosen up as the _ want to see. england are being asked to loosen up as the tournament - want to see. england are being asked to loosen up as the tournament gets| to loosen up as the tournament gets more edgy. they will hope the joy of germany is catching. if you miss the football, don�*t worry because it will come thick and fast again and we will have to last 16 matches
8:37 am
every day for the next four days and the first today are significant for england with switzerland in action against the holders, italy. of course england would face the winners of that match in the quarter if they can get there, which means beating slovakia. that match is tomorrow. you wonder if this is the moment england�*s tournament finally sparked into life. i guess that something you will put to dion dublin in the next few moments. let�*s talk to dion dublin about matters england. part of the bbc team and a former england international as well. you understand criticism can happen outside the squad and also by the squad always say never and for traits to how they feel about things. i wonder, traits to how they feel about things. iwonder, you have traits to how they feel about things. i wonder, you have been there, do you believe them? tt things. i wonder, you have been there, do you believe them? it 'ust

8:39 am
attitude and the way they pride themselves because they all go out to win the game with attitude into what they need to do but i think tactically we have been a little bit off it. our performances in the groups have not been great but they�*ve got through and i can�*t go with people having a go at england saying it�*s not been great. this not be great to watch, it has great football, we are through the groups and i get interesting. now gareth southgate, who was my captain at aston villa and has to change things and all the coaching staff have to say these are the knockout stages, we are changing it, we are going for it. let the flair players go and play football and let the defenders defend and if we do that will have no problems at all overcoming slovakia. ., , , .,

8:46 am
and some temperatures dropping back to 6 degrees 8 degrees. lots of dry weather this weekend sunny spells but a bit of a rained sandwich. rain across central areas of the uk. if you�*re at glastonbury, minimal mod this year because it�*s been dry. bit cooler today and a bit more cloud than yesterday. here is the wheat weather fronts pushing than yesterday. here is the wheat weatherfronts pushing in from than yesterday. here is the wheat weather fronts pushing in from the west and gradually moving further east through the day. a bit of light and patchy rain for most of us, a little heavy at times over the hills of north wales and into parts of north—west england. bringing with it quite a bit of cloud but it will clear across northern ireland and sunshine to the north and the south of the front, a few showers for north—west scotland of the best of the sunshine will play across south east england and central and southern england and east anglia though some sunshine a little hazy and the wind lighter than yesterday.
8:47 am
into the south—east and further north and west the mid—teens to high teens so more cool here. overnight in the front pushes south and east and elsewhere are largely dry spell with lots of showers around and locally temperatures will drop back to single figures in very mild in the south and east we could start with a few showers and a little uncertainty. the cloud will eventually clear but it will be cloudier tomorrow than today perhaps a few showers here and there mostly down the spine of the country but more dry weather than wet and some of the best sunshine could be across south—west england tomorrow. but temperatures will be lower with more north—westerly wind little disappointing temperatures for this time of year stocks then as we look out into next week, here is the atlantic picture. another weather front on monday will bring spells of rain mostly towards the north and
8:48 am
north—west but it will be heaviest. the rain looks lighter for the south will probably take most of the day to track into east areas of england and should state largely dry across wimbledon until we get to the evening but the temperatures will be rather disappointing. wimbledon on tuesday mostly dry and there will be areas of cloud temperatures below the seasonal average and they won�*t really pick up until the mac into next week. here is the outlook for the capital cities. some wet weather at times. lots of people these days put videos of their babies online doing what they think are funny things — not all of them are seen millions of times around the world. we�*re going to introduce you to baby 0rla, from liverpool — apparently arguing about her bedtime with her babysitter — in what sounds very much like a scouse accent — despite the fact she�*s still learning to talk.
8:49 am
the star at the centre of it, is taking it all in her stride, as phil mccann reports. we have had a nice day together. and then you�*re kicking off now. 0rla babbles. but why? how do you know when a baby is a scouser? when they can�*t even talk. it�*s when they sound like 0rla. but you�*re the baby. so you�*re meant to listen to what i�*m saying. 0rla babbles. i didn�*t hear it. but then people were saying, i was like, oh. and then i kept listening to it and i suppose you can hear a little bit, but obviously we are scouse so you don�*t recognise it. it�*s just normal to us. i changed your bum. but people from across the world recognised 0rla�*s scouseness. olayka was babysitting her a few weeks ago when she filmed this battle at bedtime and put it on her tiktok. she was crying and i thought, i don�*t know what to do. so i was just speaking to her, wasn�*t i? i was talking to you. and then she stopped crying. so ijust kept talking
8:50 am
to her and that�*s it. that�*s literally the whole story, isn�*t it? the video has now been seen by 20 million people on olayka�*s tiktok, and by tens of millions more elsewhere. she�*s none the wiser. i think it�*s absolutely hilarious. she�*s absolutely fed up with seeing the video of herself now, so... she�*s bored of herfame already? yeah. atjust 20 months old, 0rla may not yet be able to talk, but she definitely knows what she wants. what you saw in that video, that�*s just what she�*s... bye— bye! that�*s just what she�*s normally like? yeah, she knew what she wanted. she did not want to go to bed and she was getting her point across. and in case you�*re wondering, yes, 0rla is speaking scouse. no, it�*s not a coincidence. it's no accident that the child sounds scouse. it's because they're babbling, using the sounds and the intonation patterns that their parents
8:51 am
and the other people who are talking to them use when they're talking to them. if you listen to the speech melody, you can actually make out that this is scouse. so you have this final rise, for example. so the intonation goes up. and this is something that we associate with the scouse dialect as well. do you love going to bed, 0rla? 0rla babbles. only sometimes? you love going to sleep, don�*t you? do you love the camera? you can tell 0rla likes cameras and microphones. just as well, she�*s now got her own tiktok so she can tell everyone what she wants. 0rla babbles. and what she doesn�*t want. phil mccann, bbc news, liverpool. toadie rebecchi is to leave ramsay street after actor ryan moloney announced he will depart neighbours after nearly 30 years although the australian soap star

president biden has given a defiant performance at a rally in north carolina, in his first public appearance since thursday�*s difficult televised debate with his republican opponent, donald trump. at the campaign event in raleigh, mr biden said america itself was at stake in november�*s election — calling his opponent a genuine threat to democracy. directly addressing concerns about his age, mr biden told the rally he�*d been knocked down but would get back up. but there�*s still alarm in democrat circles at his rambling during the debate. here�*s our north america correspondent david willis. fired up by a faithful crowd, joe biden took to the stage in the swing state of north carolina, seemingly unfazed by the torrent of bad headlines his disjointed debate performance had generated.
