and...there was drama in the tennis, as andy murray and dan evans survived five match points to reach the second round of the men's doubles. a gaping hole in the public finances. the chancellor is expected to say there's a £20 billion shortfall. and road and rail projects are set to be scrapped. a woman, who was seriously injured after being attacked while out walking her dog, has died in hospital. a man has been arrested on suspicion of murder. good morning. over the next couple of days it is going to be very warm or indeed hot across the uk. the highest temperatures will be in england and wales. tomorrow, some parts of the south east could reach 32 celsius. all of the details shortly.

it's monday, the 29th ofjuly. our main story. it was a dramatic second day at the olympics for team gb, winning two medals in the swimming and kayak. adam peaty won silver in the 100m breaststroke final last night — missing out on gold by 200ths of a second, while kimberley woods won bronze in the women's kayak single. joe lynskey reports. for eight years, adam peaty has pushed his sport to new limits. he's not used to silver but he now has perspective. in the 100m breaststroke, he went for a third gold in the row and britain's first at these games. he missed out by a margin, two hundredths of a second. commentator: the gold has gone to martinenghi of italy. _ and a joint silver medal, it's gone to adam peaty of great britain. less than two years ago, he said this sport had broken him. to get so close might have felt cruel. but, for peaty, the breakthrough wasjust to be here. it's just incredibly hard.

like, to win it once and to win it again then to win it again. i'm not crying because i've come second, i'm crying because itjust took so much to get here. on the fast—flowing waters, kimberly woods held back her own tears. in the kayak, she'd just made her ride for redemption. she'd raced the k1 singles at the tokyo games but penalties in the final meant she'd finished last. this time she was flawless and now she had to wait. when the reigning champion made this mistake, woods had her medal. there's kimberley woods, the bronze medal winner for great britain. i'm kind of speechless, you know. all the hard work that's gone into it, all the support from home. yeah, it will hopefully inspire some people to talk about mental health but also, like, take up canoeing and have a watch over the next few days. on the courts of roland garros, they'd not won a medal, they'd won

a first—round match. but this is what it means for andy murray to still be in it. for so long, his olympics and with it his career looked set to end. he and dan evans faced the japanese pair. at a set and a break down, they started a fight back. commentator: wonderful response. suddenly, there is real belief among the brits here. doubles deciders are first to ten points. whenjapan led 9—4, they had five for the match. when murray is on the brink, he finds the extraordinary. somehow in paris, he is still in the sport. cheering. commentator: only andy can right this one, only andy! _ what an amazing, amazing feeling to get through that. you know, it'sjust a bit shock, like, genuine happiness at the end of it. and, yeah, glad i came. it could have been farewell, it turned into a fight back. the last event of his career brought one of murray's greatest hits. joe lynskey, bbc news.

our sports correspondent katie gornalljoins us now from paris. morning. a really dramatic des two. what can we expect from day three? wasn't itjust! after i have spoken to you on breakfast, i'm going to see tom daley compete in his fifth olympics. he is in the final of his ten metre synchro with new dive partner noah williams. i am not sure we thought we would see him again at an olympics after the fairy tale gold medal. he was persuaded to come back into diving so his children could watch him to dive at an olympics. we get to see our favourite past time, watching tom daley net. he was spotted in the women's diving knitting what appeared to be a jumper. that is

what is happening in the diving. keep an eye out for the final of the men's mountain bike race this afternoon. tom pidcock goes on that. he was in the tour de france this summer, he had to leave due to covid. the event and goes into the final round today at the palace of versailles. team gb are well placed going into the final round of the showjumping. another line, the show jumping. another line, the triathlon. showjumping. another line, the triathlon. we havejust had showjumping. another line, the triathlon. we have just had the second round practice has been cancelled due to the water quality in the seine not being good enough. thank you very much indeed.

the chancellor, rachel reeves, is set to scrap some major infrastructure projects, blaming what she says is a £20 billion black hole in the public finances, left by the conservatives. in a speech later, she'll accuse the previous government of refusing to make difficult decisions. here's our business correspondent marc ashdown. the chancellor is said to be genuinely shocked at the state of the public finances she's inherited from the conservatives. she's accused them of covering up the true scale of the issues — a black hole estimated at £20 billion — and then running away. today, rachel reeves will outline how she plans to, in her words, fix the foundations. it starts with public sector pay. the bbc understands she will accept pay recommendations, which are billions of pounds above what she's budgeted for. the calculation, the disruption from prolonged industrial action, is far more damaging to the economy than digging deep now for above—inflation pay rises.

but it comes at an immediate cost. transport projects will be paused, cancelled or reprioritised. borisjohnson�*s new hospital programme may also be reviewed. to get the public finances back on track in the longer term, ms reeves is expected to commit to no more than one majorfiscal event per year — she says to put an end to surprise budgets, which can unsettle the markets and family finances. she will establish a new office for value for money to cut down on waste and ensure all government spending delivers value. and she will underline the new legal requirement for the independent office for budget responsibility to scrutinise any major tax or spending announcements. analysts, like the institute for fiscal studies, have been warning about the extent of the task ahead for many months, and are sceptical at how much of this is really a surprise. at the broad level, at a high level, we always knew that there was going to be this

crunch in terms of public spending. everybody knew that the public services were struggling, they'd need more money. at that high level, none of this is a surprise. the conservatives said ms reeves is lying to the british taxpayer and is trying to con people into believing the need for big tax rises. in its manifesto, labour pledged not to touch major taxes, like income tax, national insurance and vat. and ms reeves is not expected to suggest tax rises will be required at this stage. but areas like courts, prisons, further education and local council budgets could come in for a spending squeeze in a bid to save money. applause. the chancellor is promising to level with the public and tell the truth and take the difficult decisions, which she says might be painful now but will lead to every part of the uk being better off. marc ashdown, bbc news. our political correspondent nick eardleyjoins us now from westminster.

we know that government is about taking decisions. the question is where the money comes from to make those decisions.— those decisions. yes, it is. ithink toda is those decisions. yes, it is. ithink today is mostly — those decisions. yes, it is. ithink today is mostly going _ those decisions. yes, it is. ithink today is mostly going to - those decisions. yes, it is. ithink today is mostly going to be - those decisions. yes, it is. ithink today is mostly going to be about| today is mostly going to be about the government actually trying to set in a bit and a bit of a political story. as we were just hearing, the chancellor is going to spend this afternoon arguing the public books are in a much worse place than laban new and they are going to going to have to make some pretty tough and potentially unpopular decisions to try to balance the books. there is a question about how much the government should actually have known during the election. we talked a lot on bbc breakfast in the election campaign about some of the spending squeeze is that were likely because of the way public finances were looking over the next few years. you chat to people in the treasury and they insist what we are

hearing today is different. they will publish a document which says here are the areas where we need extra money. there is a gap in public finances over the next year. that is where they are going to get the 20 billion figure from. it is a big moment for the government but they try to say things are not in a good way so we will have to do some pretty popular step is to blame the last lot, the conservatives. you can bet your bottom dollar they will argue that is just not true. bet your bottom dollar they will argue that isjust not true. argue that is 'ust not true. thank ou. kemi badenoch has announced that she is standing to be the next leader of the conservative party. the former business secretary is the 6th mp to enter the leadership race. nominations close this afternoon, though the winner won't be known until november. our political correspondent helen catt has more. i will step down as party leader, not immediately, but once the formal arrangements for selecting my successor are in place. it's just three and a bit weeks

since rishi sunak said he would step down as the leader of the conservatives after his party turned in its worst performance at a general election in modern history. by this afternoon, the full list of those hoping to replace him will be confirmed. it's expected it will be the six contenders, who have now declared. from the centre of the party the former security minister tom tugendhat, the former home secretary james cleverly, and the former work and pensions secretary mel stride. pitching from the right of the party, priti patel, another former home secretary, the former immigration minister robertjenrick and, as of last night, kemi badenoch, the former business secretary. she's written an article for the times, in which she says that calls for unity aren't enough. the tories need to know what they want to be. she says they need to reconfirm their belief in the nation state and the sovereign duty it has, above all else, to serve its own citizens. on public services, she says government should do some things well,

not everything badly. definitely not running, suella braverman, a potential rival on the right. the former home secretary claimed last night that she had the backing of ten mps, which is needed to run but she said there was no point because most of the parliamentary party didn't agree with her diagnosis and prescription and didn't want to hear it. instead, she said, "platitudes about unity were fashionable". nominations officially closed at 2:30 this afternoon, and all candidates will have august to campaign. throughout september, mps will whittle them down — first to four candidates, then finally two. in october, conservative party members will vote online to choose the winner, and on november the 2nd, the new leader will be announced. untilthen, rishi sunak will continue as acting leader. whoever succeeds him is in for a difficult task. helen catt, bbc news, westminster. israel's security cabinet has

authorised prime minister benjamin netanyahu and his defence minister to decide on the "manner and timing" of a response to a rocket strike in the israeli occupied golan heights, which killed 12 children. we can speak now to our middle east correspondent hugo bachega. hugo, what more do we know this morning? last night a response to the attack carried out on saturday was authorised. hezbollah is blamed for the attack. this heavily armed iranian backed militia based in lebanon. they had denied being behind this attack. they are now waiting for the israeli response. there has been intense diplomatic efforts to try to limit this israeli reaction and avoid a major escalation and a possible hezbollah

retaliation. i think this has been the fear here since the beginning of these attacks back in october, that a single attack, a miscalculation could lead to a major conflict between israel and hezbollah. i think they are both very much interested in trying to avoid a major conflict that could have catastrophic consequences for both israel and lebanon. this morning i am in southern lebanon, 30 kilometres from the border with israel. this is an area of the country which has been heavily hit by the israeli military. in beirut, the capital, flights from the only airport have been cancelled as the response to this israeli reaction continues. a woman, who was attacked while out walking her dog in suffolk, has died in hospital. 59—year—old anita rose was found unconscious on a track in brantham on wednesday. a 45—year—old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder. will vernon reports.

the last known images of anita rose. the 57—year—old was out walking her dog early on wednesday morning when she was attacked. she was discovered critically injured, lying near a railway line. but ms rose has now died from her injuries in a local hospital. her family said she was well known and loved in the community, a mum of six children, and a grandma to 13. in a statement, suffolk police said a 45—year—old man was arrested on saturday afternoon on suspicion of attempted murder, has now been rearrested on suspicion of murder. and police say they have now located the victim's phone, which could contain key evidence. but they still haven't found her distinctive pinkjacket, which she was pictured wearing. officers have not given details of any possible motive behind the attack, saying only that they believe the suspect was unknown

to the victim. will vernon, bbc news. greater manchester police is continuing its appeal for information after footage emerged showing the moments before a police officer kicked and stamped on a man at manchester airport last week. the video shows police officers being attacked and punched to the ground. phil mccann reports. this video, released over the weekend, gives more of a picture of what happened just before a police officer at manchester airport kicked a man who was lying on the floor and then stamped on his head. that man was fahir amaaz from rochdale. he can be seen in blue here, exchanging punches with police officers — all of whom end up on the floor before one tasers him, at which point he's kicked, and then the original footage shows he's stamped on. greater manchester's mayor says the new video gives a fuller picture. it is, as i was saying last week, much more complicated than was first made out.

you know, we live in a world where something appears, a fragment, and everybody rushes to judgment and then another fragment, and then everybody makes a judgment on that. it's very difficult. but now, we should now accept that there are two parallel investigations. they've got to be allowed to complete their work, and then a line eventually will be able to be drawn. but, as i say, there are serious issues here to be investigated on both sides. mohammed shafiq is from the pcs union. he's been speaking to the family and has met with mr burnham and senior police officers and community leaders. there's a responsibility for police officers to behave in a, you know, an important, structured way. and i think the professional standards that you have of police officers — that didn't apply in that particular video. and that's why the iopc is investigating criminal — potential criminal offences — and that's absolutely right. equally, you know what we saw towards the women police officers and the other police officers, that was equally offensive and unacceptable and i hope the law takes its course. greater manchester police is appealing for information

about the series of earlier events last tuesday that happened before their officers arrived. at 7:20 pm, a qatar airways flight lands from doha. there was an altercation between passengers, possibly in the baggage hall. the airline denies it happened on the plane. then, at 8:22, the police say there was a violent altercation involving members of the public in a branch of starbucks at manchester's terminal 2. that happened six minutes before the incident involving the police — an incident which led to four people being arrested and one police officer facing a criminal investigation. phil mccann, bbc news. our north of england reporter, rowan bridge, joins us now from rochdale. rowan, what kind of information are police asking for? well, they have asked for anybody who may have eyewitness accounts or video information relating to any of the incidents that were referred to.

basically, the events as they unfolded on tuesday evening. it is worth noting that the police officers involved in that incident are understood to still be under the care of medical professionals. as she remembered three of them are taken to hospital, one of them suffered a broken nose in the incident. fahiramaaz, the suffered a broken nose in the incident. fahir amaaz, the man you see being kicked in the head in a video, is said to be traumatised after what happened and requires further medical scans. sources close to the family say they are not a criminalfamily and to the family say they are not a criminal family and anybody found to have broken the law should face due process. worth remembering four people were arrested on suspicion of assault and affray in the aftermath of the incident. they had been released on bail. the family of fahir amaaz say whatever happened there is no context which could justify justify there is no context which could

justifyjustify kicking someone in the head while they are on the ground. there are two investigations were won by the i0 pc. they are under investigation for criminal assault. the second investigation by greater manchester police into what exactly happened at manchester airport. exactly happened at manchester airort. . ~ exactly happened at manchester airort. ., ~ i. john anderson, best known for his role as a referee on the tv series gladiators, has died aged 92. gladiators ready! the scottish sports coach appeared in the game show�*s original run, which aired from 1992 to 2000. during his career, he also trained more than 100 olympic athletes. a statement from the tv show said john would "forever be remembered" for his iconic voice. those words. he was the voice of

gladiators. are we ready for the weather? here's carol with a look at this morning's weather. if you like your weather a the altar, you are in luck. as we go through the first half of this week, temperatures are continuing to rise. it will be mostly dry as well. a lot of clear skies across england and wales through the day but one or two showers getting into western scotland and northern ireland. later on, a weather front comes scotland and northern ireland. later on, a weatherfront comes in scotland and northern ireland. later on, a weather front comes in from the north—west introducing thicker cloud and spot of rain. more breezy as well. temperatures, ranging from 16 in the north to 28,29 as well. temperatures, ranging from 16 in the north to 28, 29 has become further south. you can see 23 in newcastle, 27 in hull. this evening and overnight, our weatherfront and overnight, our weather front which and overnight, our weatherfront which is week brings splashes of

rain across parts of scotland and northern ireland and starts to fizzle. behind it one or two showers were still quite breezy. i had a bit once again, lots of clear skies with mist and fog patches forming in south—west england. these other temperatures, 12 to 15 degrees. that takes us into tomorrow. the mist and fog will clear rapidly. a fair bit of sunshine around tomorrow. i weather front continuing to fizzle. one or two showers across the far north of scotland and it will be breezy across shetland. temperature —wise this is we will hit 32 celsius. in old money that is 89.96 fahrenheit we will see some thunderstorms into wednesday. hat thunderstorms into wednesday. not et. let's

thunderstorms into wednesday. not yet. let's hold onto that sunshine. thank you. finding your way around town can be complicated at the best of times, but imagine trying to navigate them if you're blind or partially sighted. the national federation of the blind of the uk is calling for so called floating bus stops, which are separated from the pavement by a cycle lane, to be removed, describing them as "chaotic, confusing and dangerous" for the visually impaired. thomas magill reports. you see that kerb's not very high. mm—hm. the lowering of the kerbs, it's all the same colour. it all merges into one. sarah is visually impaired and relies on her guide dog nelly to get around. but since this so—called shared space was introduced outside leicester train station, separating the footpath from the bus stop by a cycle lane, nelly has become disorientated, leaving sarah feeling vulnerable and unable to use some of the city's public transport.

you could just get on and off a bus that pulled to a pavement. you'd have none of this conflict between cyclists, e—scooters and other micro—mobility. um, and i'djust do it and just walk into town. but now ijust won't do it because it's too dangerous and you're thinking, what's going to happen to us? is somebody going to hit us? it's just terrifying. and it's notjust those who are visually impaired who are at risk. these near—misses between other pedestrians and cyclists were recently caught on camera by campaigners. in leicester, there's concern the design is confusing, badly planned and dangerous. one guy come down here and he must have been doing it at least 25 mile an hour. nearly took... if he's had took somebody out, they'd have been hospitalised. i'm always turning around. i'm scared of getting run over. but not only by cycles. it's them scooters, electric scooters.

people fly past and i've been knocked over nearly a couple of times, so it is a bit unsafe. so something needs to be done. this is not a safe place to cycle or walk as a pedestrian. now campaigners like sarah gayton wants the new government to ban floating bus stops and redesign those that exist to make it safer for the visually impaired. whilst we were out filming with sarah, this happened. so... if you're telling me this has to stop here like this. you know, i've justjumped out my skin because that e—scooter flying past me. you know, how can this be safe? they can see us. a near miss from a passing e—scooter going the wrong way up a cycle lane. absolutely abhorrent. and it has to stop. they're not working. they haven't worked since they've been put in for blind and visually impaired people and it's time for a change. a change of design that will allow the bus, like it always did, to come back up to the pavement, so blind, visually impaired people

can get on and off the bus directly from the pavement without having to cross or step into a live cycle lane. well, these floating bus stops and the segregated cycleways have been designed to improve safety for cyclists by separating them from all other vehicles. now widely welcomed by those who use them, some have concerns about their design. the department of transport says accessibility on our roads and pavements is an absolute priority. "we are working with disability groups and local authorities to ensure all concerns are taken seriously." sarah mcmonagle cycles to work every day in london and says herjourney is now much safer since segregated cycle lanes were introduced. she would like to see more in other towns and cities, but says it's important they are designed in accordance with the guidance. i must go through maybe six, seven,

eight floating bus stops on my way to work, and i think they're a great innovation. they mean that you don't have to kind of mix with the traffic when you're on the same route as a bus. there's actually pretty good guidance in place for how they should be designed, but unfortunately we're not always seeing that that guidance adhered to. so for cycling uk, we really want to see better compliance and make sure that we are actually designing bus stops in a way that keeps cyclists safe, but also keep pedestrians safe, particularly visually—impaired people. more of this likely in the future, sarah is hoping a petition recently handed in to the government will bring an end to these shared spaces, so her and nelly can get their independence back. thomas magill, bbc news. some incredible footage in that report. the number is on the screen at the moment. to get in touch if you have any stories about

struggling and dealing with cycle lanes. as you can see at times it can really be quite scary. we have been talking about the dangers for the visually impaired. it shows how difficult they are to navigate for everybody else. as we've been hearing, all eyes will be on the olympic pool later as matt richards competes in the 200 metre freestyle final. breakfast'sjohn maguire is at his swimming club in worcester for us this morning. we were just saying, we can almost smell and hear that pool. it has that look about it, doesn't it? good to see ou that look about it, doesn't it? good to see you both. _ that look about it, doesn't it? good to see you both. it _ that look about it, doesn't it? good to see you both. it is _ that look about it, doesn't it? good to see you both. it is loud - that look about it, doesn't it? (emf. to see you both. it is loud here, i can tell you, once the swimmers get into the water. mark is the swimming coach. ready to go? and they are. they had been swimming in since six o'clock this morning. the great

thing about a swim club with these youngsters who are competitive swimmers, we do not have to drag them to bed like we normally do. this is the home club of matt richards, where he was spotted years ago. he will go in that final tonight. the technique isjust wonderful. you can see these guys know exactly what they are doing. i know exactly what they are doing. i know we always say this when we come to these clubs, maybe they are the future olympians was that if we were here ten, 14 years ago, we could have been talking to a young matt richards. it would be a spectacular final tonight. we will chat to some of the kids, the swim coach as well. that is after the news, travel and weather where you are watching this morning. good morning from bbc london. i'm alice salfield. a person's been arrested after a man in his 70s died in a house fire in east london on saturday afternoon. the met said the fire on oval road north in dagenham

was being treated as suspicious, and are investigating whether it could be linked to two others which happened in the same area. eurostar says it expects to run a full timetable between london and paris today, following three days of disruption caused by sabotage in france. around one in four trains were cancelled over the weekend after a series of fires on the french high speed rail network. it's still not clear who was behind them or whether they were deliberately timed to disrupt the olympic opening ceremony a few hours later. new data from city hall shows nearly £30 million has been spent on tackling tube noise over the last five years. the money's covered rail grinding work to manage defects as well as machine and staff costs. tfl says reducing the noise remains a priority. a hot air balloon event which would have seen around 50 balloons fly over london yesterday, was postponed again due to weather concerns. organisers of the lord mayor's hot air balloon regatta say they're hoping to confirm a fresh standby

date for this year. now, as part of our series the 32 and the city, we've been to westminster to meet george skeggs. he fell in love with soho in the 50s, and has become such a fixture, he's depicted on a mural of the area's history. affectionately known as soho george, he's been telling us why he's arguably the best—dressed man in the west end. it's all about detail with me, though. it's all about detail. look — double cuffs, cuff links, tie pin, you know? it's all about detail, right the way down to my shoes and socks. if they don't work for me, i won't wear them. let's take a look at the tubes now. now onto the weather with kate. good morning. this warm spell is set to continue for the next few days at least. this was as itjust started to get

lighter around 4:30 this morning. very little in the way of cloud across london. it's going to be dry, very warm with plenty of sunshine today. the wind is also very light and the temperature continues to rise. we're looking at a maximum of 28 celsius, but the potential is there for it to get a little bit higher. now into this evening again, it's going to be very warm. could start to feel quite humid. the minimum temperature, clear skies of course, 13 to 15 celsius as we head into tomorrow morning. another bright start to tuesday, another dry day, plenty of sunshine tomorrow. the wind is light. temperatures getting a little higher, maximum 30 celsius. but again, the potential is there for them to rise a degree or two higher than that. now it's going to be a very uncomfortable night tuesday into wednesday, with temperatures in central london potentially not dropping much below 18 or 19. for wednesday, there is a chance of a thundery shower. that's all from me. but head to our website for plenty more, including the mayor still hoping to bring

wrestlemania to london. now it's back to sally and ben. bye—bye. hello, this is breakfast with ben thompson and sally nugent. good morning. it isjust after good morning. it is just after half past six. let's talk olympics. john is with us. what a moment in the pool. yes, one man taking centre stage last night, adam peaty. he was going for the third consecutive olympic gold. despite finishing with a silver, no disappointment. he wasn't crying because he was sad. it was just that the overwhelming emotion of everything... the dedication, the hard work, he has been to a dark place, he has spoken about the difficulties he has had. was he going to come back to swimming, was he going to compete at

this olympics? he has done. his son was there in the crowd. that was part of it. it has been his motivation over the past 18 months. he found enough to go again. obviously he would have wanted the goal is to complete the three consecutive golds. but he got the silver. the tears were flowing. no sense of disappointment from him. you can see how close it was last night. he missed out by the smallest of margins. could not have been tighter. he finishedjoint of margins. could not have been tighter. he finished joint second as he aimed to become just the second man in history to win the same swimming event in three consecutive games. italy's nicolo martinenghi took it byjust two hundredths of a second. i'm not crying because i've come second. i'm crying because itjust took so much to get here. it's just incredibly hard, like, to win it once, then to win it again. everything i've done to this point, i think, has happened for a reason. and i'm so happy that i can race the best in the world. i came joint second.

again, it's not crying because i was second, or i lost, or whatever. in my heart i've won. these are happy tears because i said to myself that i'd give it absolute best, give my absolute best every single day. and i have. and you can't be upset about that. that was the second medal of the day. the first british medal of the day was a brilliant bronze for kimberley woods in the women's kayak singles final. woods was hoping for redemption after she finished last in tokyo, and she produced a clean run to clinch her first olympic medal, as australia's jessica fox took gold. she has another chance to top the podium in kayak cross next week, a discipline making its olympic debut, and woods is the reigning world champion. i'm already on cloud nine. i mean, anything from now is just a bonus. yeah, to come here and win this, and, yeah, i'm going to rest now and cheer on my team—mates. i'm sure this is going to inspire

them to go out there and win medals. and, yeah, i'm really looking forward to sitting on that ramp. it is so good to see you with such a big smile on yourface. i've followed you for a number of years, we've had a number of these interviews. and it is so lovely to see you smiling. yeah, we've had a few and me in tears, so it's been nice to come round full circle and have a medal round my neck. another inspiring display full of emotion. talking of drama, we had another hefty slice of it served up by andy murray and his partner dan evans in the doubles last night. it put murray's impending retirement on hold. the pair looked to be out of it in the deciding tie—break against the japanese pair. but they produced a stunning escape act to make it into the second round. you can

understand the celebrations at the end. andy murray, two—time olympic gold medallist, really enjoying it. in the moment, like, when we finished the match, i mean, both of us were just laughing. i mean, you know, i haven't celebrated a match win like that since, oh, eh, maybe the kokkinakis match in australia. but, yeah, i mean, whatan amazing, amazing feeling, like, to get through that. you know, there wasjust a bit of shock, you know, genuine happiness at the end of it. and, yeah, glad i came! well worth it! absolutely. the world's most decorated gymnast, simone biles, made a stunning return to olympic action, three years after suffering from the twisties at the tokyo games. biles looked to be back to her best as she led the usa team in securing qualification for tuesday's women's team final. she produced brilliant performances in all four of her routines. the only slight concern is that she has aggravated a calf injury.

but on this form, she looks certain to add to her 37 world and olympic medals. the stars were out in force — american rapper snoop dogg was loving it. as were tom cruise and lady gaga, who were also spotted in the crowd. such is the star pull of simone biles. when she is at her best, you don't want to miss it. england put on a scintillating display at edgbaston to clinch the third and final test against west indies in style. mark wood took five wickets as the tourists were bowled out for 175. and chasing 82 to win, captain ben stokes promoted himself to open the batting, and he finished the game off with a six. stokes had earlier secured a place in the history books, with england's fastest ever test half—century. they won by ten wickets, inside three days, and took the series 3—0. there have been plenty

of twists and turns in this formula one season, and another huge one arrived at the belgian grand prix — the last race before the summer break. and it was heartbreak for george russell, who took the chequered flag in spa and was handed the winner's trophy. but the sweet taste of champagne soon turned sour when the stewards declared his mercedes car was under the minimum weight limit at the finish. he was disqualified, and victory was handed to his team—mate lewis hamilton. oscar piastri was upgraded to second, and charles leclerc moved up to third. in that would be frustrating. standing on the podium, soaking up the celebration, all that champagne, only to be told, sorry, it is not yours this time around. that is tough. thank you. the chancellor, rachel reeves, is expected to attack the conservatives' record on public finances in a speech to the commons later. she's accusing the previous government of overspending this year's budgets by billions of pounds. we're joined now by shadow transport secretary helen whately.

good morning to you. the chancellor says there is a £20 billion black hole in the public finances that your government left behind. where is the money?— is the money? well, i think the chancellor _ is the money? well, i think the chancellor is _ is the money? well, i think the chancellor is unfortunately - is the money? well, i think the i chancellor is unfortunately setting out a narrative that will lead to labour putting up taxes. we should really start with some of the facts. we all know that when labour came into the government on the 5th of july, they took over a strong economic legacy. they took over the fastest—growing economy in the g7, they took over inflation back down to 2%, they over historically low unemployment and the deficit halved since we came into government. they took over a really strong economic position. yes, of course, there are always pressures in finances. but i think i said at the start, what labour is doing here is setting out a plan that will lead to them putting up taxes, even though they said during their election campaign

they would not do that. how said during their election campaign they would not do that.— said during their election campaign they would not do that. how can you describe the — they would not do that. how can you describe the economy _ they would not do that. how can you describe the economy and _ they would not do that. how can you describe the economy and the - describe the economy and the finances as being in a strong position? your own government, your own chancellor, said they were difficult decisions that had to be made about tax and spending, couldn't promise any further tax cuts given the state of the finances... i don't know how you can describe the economy as being in a strong position? bath describe the economy as being in a strong position?— strong position? both of those thins strong position? both of those things are _ strong position? both of those things are true. _ strong position? both of those things are true. the _ strong position? both of those things are true. the reason - strong position? both of those things are true. the reason i i strong position? both of those i things are true. the reason i said there was strong was because we had come through a difficult period, following the pandemic and the russian invasion of ukraine, followed by high inflation, inflation coming down, the deficit coming down, and the highest growth in the g7. . , coming down, and the highest growth in the g7. ., , , ., , ., in the g7. over a very small period? actuall , in the g7. over a very small period? actually. it — in the g7. over a very small period? actually. it is _ in the g7. over a very small period? actually, it is over— in the g7. over a very small period? actually, it is over an _ in the g7. over a very small period? actually, it is over an increasing - actually, it is over an increasing period of time if you look back at some of the numbers. it period of time if you look back at some of the numbers.— some of the numbers. it was the first quarter _ some of the numbers. it was the first quarter of — some of the numbers. it was the first quarter of the _ some of the numbers. it was the first quarter of the year. - some of the numbers. it was the first quarter of the year. we - some of the numbers. it was the first quarter of the year. we are | first quarter of the year. we are seeinr first quarter of the year. we are seeing the _ first quarter of the year. we are seeing the fastest _ first quarter of the year. we are seeing the fastest growing - first quarter of the year. we are - seeing the fastest growing economy in the g7. there will be pressures on finances, there always are. this

is part of being in government as you face difficult decisions. but i think labour should be honest with the public about the way they were going to handle those difficult decisions. when we have been in government, when we have been facing those difficult decisions, like pressures on public sector pay, we have looked for the right ways to make savings. our manifesto included plans for substantial savings on welfare reform. by contrast, rachel reeves said over 50 times they would not increase taxes, but it looks like that is what they are going to do to handle these pressures. this fiaure of do to handle these pressures. this figure of 20 _ do to handle these pressures. this figure of 20 billion is interesting, the number rachel reeves has put on the number rachel reeves has put on the shortfall. this is pauljohnson from the institute for fiscal studies. he has got a very specific understanding of that 20 billion. it's very striking that if this problem _ it's very striking that if this problem is about £20 billion big, that that — problem is about £20 billion big, that that is exactly the scale of the national insurance cuts

implemented byjeremy huntjust implemented by jeremy hunt just before _ implemented byjeremy huntjust before the election. if those cuts were _ before the election. if those cuts were implemented in the knowledge there was— were implemented in the knowledge there was this kind of hole, that is not good _ there was this kind of hole, that is not good policy to put it mildly. that _ not good policy to put it mildly. that was — not good policy to put it mildly. that was pauljohnson at the ifs, who says the £20 billion shortfall is what it cost to implement the national insurance cuts. the conservatives were not honest with the public about the state of the finances, were there? this i the public about the state of the finances, were there?— the public about the state of the finances, were there? as i said a moment ago _ finances, were there? as i said a moment ago we _ finances, were there? as i said a moment ago we were _ finances, were there? as i said a moment ago we were making - finances, were there? as i said a - moment ago we were making different choices in our manifesto, we committed to different choices. we would have liked to bring taxes down further and we were under pressure to do that, but we were actually prudent about that, making tax cuts where we could, the national insurance when you referred to there. on the other hand, setting out plans for how we could control public spending and balance the books. balance the booksjust public spending and balance the books. balance the books just as we did back in march in the budget. that was verified by the office for budget responsibility, which of course many people have talked about the fact that rachel reeves would have known about the state of public

finances because we had of the obr, the office for budget responsibility, which gives the public and the opposition the opportunity to know the state of the public finances before they come into government. haifa public finances before they come into government.— public finances before they come into government. how would you describe the _ into government. how would you describe the state _ into government. how would you describe the state of _ into government. how would you describe the state of the - into government. how would you i describe the state of the finances? as i set out at the beginning of this conversation, while labour is going out there and trying to tell everybody that it is also difficult for them, this isjust them everybody that it is also difficult for them, this is just them setting a narrative for tax rises that they want to bring in later on, but actually, they took over an economy that had the fastest growth in the g7, had the deficit halved compared to when we took over in 2010, historically low unemployment, and inflation back down at 2%. so, really good fundamentals for them to build on in government. the really good fundamentals for them to build on in government.— build on in government. the reason i am really confused, _ build on in government. the reason i am really confused, helen _ build on in government. the reason i am really confused, helen whately, | am really confused, helen whately, is that on one hand you are telling me you have left the economy in very good shape, but also you are telling me that labour should have known about the state of the public finances. ~ . , , .,

stood on a manifesto at the election which was that they wouldn't put up taxes for people. rachel reeves said over 50 times she would not put up taxes for people, and it looks like thatis taxes for people, and it looks like that is something they are going to do. , ., ,., , that is something they are going to do. , ., , ., �* that is something they are going to do. , ., , , , do. they have said they won't put up ersonal do. they have said they won't put up personal taxes. _ do. they have said they won't put up personal taxes, such _ do. they have said they won't put up personal taxes, such as _ do. they have said they won't put up personal taxes, such as vat - do. they have said they won't put up personal taxes, such as vat and - personal taxes, such as vat and national insurance?— national insurance? they specifically _ national insurance? they specifically set _ national insurance? they specifically set a - national insurance? they specifically set a set - national insurance? they specifically set a set of i national insurance? they . specifically set a set of taxes national insurance? they - specifically set a set of taxes they wouldn't do, which limits the particular choices they would have over which taxes they would put up, but the fact is taxes in general do affect many people. and if they're trying to put themselves forward as the party of economic growth, economic growth is indeed what the country wants, they need to be very careful, because putting up some of the taxes are the taxes that could curtail growth. helen whately, good to talk to you. we will talk to labour later. it is 6:47am. carol is on the beach this morning. nearly! in my dreams, anyway! good

morning. as we go through this week you will notice a hike in the temperatures, particularly tomorrow, when we could reach 32 celsius, somewhere in the south—eastern quarter. that is 89.6 fahrenheit. what we have today is high—pressure firmly in charge of our weather. we have got these weather fronts coming in from the atlantic bumping into it and weakening all the time. they are still bringing in a wee bit more cloud, especially across western scotland and northern ireland. here we will see some rain. pretty breezy in the north—west with a few showers ahead of that weather front. but for many it is going to be dry, it is going to be sunny, this would be very warm, or indeed hot. you can see too if you are along the coast it would be a little bit cooler or fresher, with a sea breezes. these are the kind of temperatures we are expecting today. 22 in aberdeen, 20 in belfast, 26 in birmingham, and 28 or29 in in belfast, 26 in birmingham, and 28 or 29 in london. this evening and

overnight the week weather front continues to try to push southwards. there will be some spots of rain, but what you will find is it will tend to fizzle out. by the end of the night it won't be producing much more than a band of cloud. ahead of it, a lot of clear skies, mist and fog patches forming in the west. some showers in the north of scotland, where it would be quite windy. these are the temperatures. 12 to 15 degrees as the overnight lows. tomorrow, here is the week weather front. lows. tomorrow, here is the week weatherfront. high pressure still in charge. you can see the isobars are closer together across the north of scotland. once again come across shetland, for example, it will be quite windy. here is the week weather front. quite windy. here is the week weatherfront. a quite windy. here is the week weather front. a lot of dry weather once again. you could catch the odd shower, perhaps across the far north of scotland, but most of us will miss them and it is going to be very warm or hot. temperatures in aberdeen, 21 degrees, 26 in birmingham. we

could see 31 or 32 celsius around the london area. for example, the south—east, east anglia, favoured for the highest temperatures. as we head on through tuesday at night, there is a real change in the weather. it is only 8 degrees overnight in scotland. a very uncomfortable 18 as we push further south. we will also see some thunderstorms pushing towards the south—west they will be with us through the course of tomorrow. if anything, they will push into the south—eastern corner, possibly the midlands as well. at times the areas of cloud across north—east england and north east scotland making it quite grey. in between, a fair bit of sunshine. these are the temperatures, 15 to 26. oh, we like that! thank you. there's hope of more medals for team gb in the olympic pool later, as matt richards competes in the 200 metre freestyle final. breakfast'sjohn maguire

new data from city hall shows nearly £30 million has been spent on tackling tube noise over the last five years. the money's covered rail grinding work to manage defects as well as machine and staff costs. tfl says reducing the noise remains a priority. a hot air balloon event, which would have seen around 50 balloons fly over london yesterday, was cancelled again due to weather concerns. organisers of the lord mayor's hot air balloon regatta say they still hope it'll go ahead this year. now, as part of our series the 32 and the city, we've been to westminster to meet george skeggs. he fell in love with soho in the 50s and has become such a fixture he's depicted on a mural of the area's history. affectionately known as soho george, he's been telling us why he's arguably the best—dressed man in the west end. it's all about detail with me, though. it's all about detail. look — double cuffs, cuff links, tie pin, you know?

it's all about detail, right the way down to my shoes and socks. if they don't work for me, i won't wear them. let's take a look at the tubes now. there are severe delays on the northern line and the overground has no service between hackney downs and chingford until sunday. let's get your weather with kate. good morning. this warm spell is set to continue for the next few days at least. this was as itjust started to get lighter around 4:30 this morning. very little in the way of cloud across london. it's going to be dry, very warm with plenty of sunshine today. the wind is also very light and the temperature continues to rise. we're looking at a maximum of 28 celsius, but the potential is there for it to get a little bit higher. now into this evening again, it's going to be very warm. could start to feel quite humid. the minimum temperature, clear skies of course, 13 to 15 celsius as we head into tomorrow morning. another bright start to tuesday, another dry day, plenty of sunshine tomorrow.

the wind is light. temperatures getting a little higher, maximum 30 celsius. but again, the potential is there for them to rise a degree or two higher than that. now it's going to be a very uncomfortable night tuesday into wednesday, with temperatures in central london potentially not dropping much below 18 or 19. for wednesday, there is a chance of a thundery shower. that's all from me but head to our website for plenty more. bye— bye.

good morning. welcome to breakfast with ben thompson and sally nugent. our headlines today... commentator: peaty in four. who's going to get the title? it is. oh, it's gone to martinenghi of italy. swimmer adam peaty misses out on olympic gold in paris by the smallest of margins. in my heart, i've won. these are happy tears cos i said to myself that i'd give it absolute best — give my absolute best every single day, and i have. team gb also took a bronze on day 2 — thanks to kimberley woods in the kayaking. and there was drama in the tennis as andy murray and dan evans survived five match points to reach the second round of the men's doubles. a gaping hole in the public finances — the chancellor is expected to say there's a £20billion shortfall — and road and rail projects

are set to be scrapped. the mother of a boy with complex needs is calling for all special schools to be fitted with cctv after an attack on her son by a teaching assistant. the fake funeral live streams being used to exploit the bereaved. we look at the scammers targetting people when they're at their lowest. good morning. the first couple of days this week will be very warm or hot across the board. the highest temperatures are likely to be in the south—east of england reaching 32 celsius tomorrow. all of the details shortly. it's monday, the 29th ofjuly. it was a dramatic second day at the olympics for team gb, winning two medals in the swimming and kayak. adam peaty won silver in the 100 metres breaststroke final last night — missing out on gold by two—hundredths of a second,

while kimberley woods won bronze in the women's kayak single. joe lynskey reports. for eight years, adam peaty has pushed his sport to new limits. he's not used to silver but he now has perspective. in the 100m breaststroke, he went for a third gold in the row and britain's first at these games. he missed out by a margin of two hundredths of a second. commentator: the gold has gone to martinenghi of italy. _ and a joint silver medal, it's gone to adam peaty of great britain. less than two years ago, he said this sport had broken him. to get so close might have felt cruel. but, for peaty, the breakthrough wasjust to be here. it's just incredibly hard. like, to win it once and to win it again then to win it again. i'm not crying because i've come second, i'm crying because itjust took so much to get here. on the fast—flowing waters, kimberley woods held back her own tears.

in the kayak, she'd just made her ride for redemption. she'd raced the k1 singles at the tokyo games but penalties in the final meant she'd finished last. this time she was flawless and now she had to wait. when the reigning champion made this mistake, woods had her medal. commentator: there's kimberley woods, the bronze medal- winner for great britain. i'm kind of speechless, you know. all the hard work that's gone into it, all the support from home. yeah, it will hopefully inspire some people to talk about mental health but also, like, take up canoeing and have a watch over the next few days. on the courts of roland garros, they'd not won a medal, they'd won a first—round match. but this is what it means for andy murray to still be in it. for so long, his olympics and with it his career looked set to end. he and dan evans faced the japanese pair. at a set and a break down, they started a fight back. commentator: wonderful response. suddenly, there is real belief

among the brits here. doubles deciders are first to ten points. whenjapan led 9—4, they had five for the match. when murray is on the brink, he finds the extraordinary. somehow in paris, he is still in the sport. cheering. commentator: only andy can right this one, only andy! _ what an amazing, amazing feeling to get through that. you know, it'sjust a bit shock, like, genuine happiness at the end of it. and, yeah, glad i came. it could have been farewell, it turned into a fight back. the last event of his career brought one of murray's greatest hits. joe lynskey, bbc news. that was brilliant, wasn't it? our sports correspondent katie gornalljoins us now from paris. katie what can we expect

from day 3 at the olympics? wasn't it just! i wasn't itjust! i wonder what today has in store. shortly i will head to the aquatic centre to see tom daley compete. he started out as a 14—year—old in beijing in 2008. here he is competing in the final of the ten metre platform with new diving partner, noah williams. we thought we might have seen the last of tom daley with that fairy tale gold medal three years ago but he was persuaded back to the pool by his son, he wanted to see him compete at an olympic games. the added bonus forfans, we get to an olympic games. the added bonus for fans, we get to watch him knitting. he was spotted in the stands of the women's event admitting what appeared to be a jumper. it wouldn't feel like an olympics if we didn't see tom daley with his knitting needles. a lot of

attention from a team gb point of view to the mountain biking. tom peacock has already had an exhausting summer. he was competing in the tour de france and he is in the road race as well. he is defending champion and hot favourite. the eventing at the palace of versailles reaches its conclusion today. it is showjumping. team gb is in pole position after that one after the dressage. to give you an update on the triathlon, a second day of practice in the swimming council because of the water quality not being good enough in the river seine. organisers are still confident the men's triathlon will go ahead as planned. more of the da 's will go ahead as planned. more of the day's news — will go ahead as planned. more of the day's news including - will go ahead as planned. more of the day's news including the - will go ahead as planned. more of the day's news including the story about some missing money. let me explain. thank you very much. the chancellor, rachel reeves,

is set to scrap some major infrastructure projects, blaming what she says is a £20 billion black hole in the public finances, left by the conservatives. in a speech later, she'll accuse the previous government of refusing to make difficult decisions. here's our business correspondent marc ashdown. the chancellor is said to be genuinely shocked at the state of the public finances she's inherited from the conservatives. she's accused them of covering up the true scale of the issues — a black hole estimated at £20 billion — and then running away. today, rachel reeves will outline how she plans to, in her words, fix the foundations. it starts with public sector pay. the bbc understands she will accept pay recommendations, which are billions of pounds above what she's budgeted for. the calculation, the disruption from prolonged industrial action, is far more damaging to the economy than digging deep now for above—inflation pay rises. but it comes at an immediate cost.

transport projects will be paused, cancelled or reprioritised. borisjohnson's new hospital programme may also be reviewed. to get the public finances back on track in the longer term, ms reeves is expected to commit to no more than one majorfiscal event per year — she says to put an end to surprise budgets, which can unsettle the markets and family finances. she will establish a new office for value for money to cut down on waste and ensure all government spending delivers value. and she will underline the new legal requirement for the independent office for budget responsibility to scrutinise any major tax or spending announcements. analysts, like the institute for fiscal studies, have been warning about the extent of the task ahead for many months, and are sceptical at how much of this is really a surprise. at the broad level, at a high level, we always knew that there was going to be this crunch in terms of public spending. everybody knew that the public services were struggling, they'd need more money. at that high level, none of this is a surprise. the conservatives said ms reeves

is lying to the british taxpayer and is trying to con people into believing the need for big tax rises. in its manifesto, labour pledged not to touch major taxes, like income tax, national insurance and vat. and ms reeves is not expected to suggest tax rises will be required at this stage. but areas like courts, prisons, further education and local council budgets could come in for a spending squeeze in a bid to save money. applause. the chancellor is promising to level with the public and tell the truth and take the difficult decisions, which she says might be painful now but will lead to every part of the uk being better off. marc ashdown, bbc news. gps have threatened to bring the nhs to a "standstill", if they decide to stage their first industrial action in 60 years. family docors in england are being balloted by the british medical association amid rows over the new contract for gp services. the union said strikes

could start as early as thursday and last "months". in a statement, the government claimed the health secretary has met with the chair of the bma's gp committee to discuss their priorities. kemi badenoch has announced that she is standing to be the next leader of the conservative party. the former business secretary is the 6th mp to enter the leadership race. nominations close this afternoon, though the winner won't be known until november. our political correspondent helen catt has more. i will step down as party leader, not immediately, but once the formal arrangements for selecting my successor are in place. it's just three and a bit weeks since rishi sunak said he would step down as the leader of the conservatives after his party turned in its worst performance at a general election in modern history. by this afternoon, the full list of those hoping to replace him will be confirmed. it's expected it will be the six contenders, who have now declared. from the centre of the party

the former security minister, tom tugendhat, the former home secretary, james cleverly, and the former work and pensions secretary, mel stride. pitching from the right of the party, priti patel, another former home secretary, the former immigration minister, robertjenrick and, as of last night, kemi badenoch, the former business secretary. she's written an article for the times, in which she says that calls for unity aren't enough. the tories need to know what they want to be. she says they need to reconfirm their belief in the nation state and the sovereign duty it has, above all else, to serve its own citizens. on public services, she says government should do some things well, not everything badly. definitely not running, suella braverman, a potential rival on the right. the former home secretary claimed last night that she had the backing of ten mps, which is needed to run but she said there was no point because most of the parliamentary party didn't agree with her diagnosis and prescription and didn't want to hear it. instead, she said, "platitudes

about unity were fashionable". nominations officially closed at 2:30 this afternoon, and all candidates will have august to campaign. throughout september, mps will whittle them down — first to four candidates, then finally two. in october, conservative party members will vote online to choose the winner, and on november the 2nd, the new leader will be announced. untilthen, rishi sunak will continue as acting leader. whoever succeeds him is in for a difficult task. helen catt, bbc news, westminster. israel's security cabinet has authorised prime minister benjamin netanyahu and his defence minister to decide on the "manner and timing" of a response to a rocket strike in the israeli—occupied golan heights, which killed 12 children. we can speak now to our middle east correspondent yolande knell. yolande, what more do we know this morning?

attacks. israel has promised a harsh response. we are not sure at the moment what that will look like. the risk is that hezbollah could be provoked into a counter attack, which could lead us into all out war. . ~' which could lead us into all out war. ., ~ , ., a woman, who was attacked while out walking her dog in suffolk, has died in hospital. 59—year—old anita rose was found unconscious on a track in brantham on wednesday. a 45—year—old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder. will vernon reports. the last known images of anita rose. the 57—year—old was out walking her dog early on wednesday morning when she was attacked. she was discovered critically injured, lying near a railway line. but ms rose has now died from her injuries in a local hospital. her family said she was well known and loved in the community, a mum of six children, and a grandma to 13. in a statement, suffolk police

said a 45—year—old man, who was arrested on saturday afternoon on suspicion of attempted murder, has now been rearrested on suspicion of murder. and police say they have now located the victim's phone, which could contain key evidence. but they still haven't found her distinctive pinkjacket, which she was pictured wearing. officers haven't given details of any possible motive behind the attack, saying only that they believe the suspect was unknown to the victim. will vernon, bbc news. greater manchester police is continuing its appeal for information after footage emerged showing the moments before a police officer kicked and stamped on a man at manchester airport last week. the video shows police officers being attacked and punched to the ground. our north of england reporter, rowan bridge, joins us now from rochdale. rowan, what kind of information

are police asking for? i think what is clear is almost a week on from this video that went viral, the police are still trying to establish exactly the circumstances of what happened on tuesday evening at manchester airport. that is a sequence of events appearing to have taken place which led to the video and violence that has gone viral on social media put manchester police has appealed for anyone with information about the events or video footage to come forward and contact them. the police officers involved in the incident are still under the care of medical professionals. one of them suffered a broken nose. fahir amaaz, the man seen lying on the ground in their video, who gets kicked in the head, he is still traumatised by what happened and needs further medical scans. the family has said they feel

anyone who has broken the law should face due process but nothing can justify someone being kicked in the head while lying on the ground. the chief constable of greater manchester stephen watson has expressed profound regret at the shock and upset the events have caused and there are effectively two parallel investigations going on, one by the police watchdog into the actions of a police officer and the second by greater manchester police into the events of tuesday evening. thank you very much. the number of plastic bags left on beaches has fallen drastically in the last decade, a charity has said. the marine conservation society has recorded an average 80% drop in the number of plastic bags found on beaches over the last ten years. it comes as the introduction of charges for single use carrier bags has helped reduce their use. that is good news. it is. there is

elsewhere. thank you. there's a warning about the growing number of scammers, who are exploiting the bereaved. they're pretending to offer remote access to funerals but really they're after your money. nina can explain more. we talk about scammers quite a lot on this programme but there is something particularly sinister about this, people who are at their lowest. yes — people who are grieving, who are feeling at their lowest, are being targeted by fraudsters online and swindled into handing over their cash. this is tony. when he passed away injune, devastated family and friends wanted to pay tribute online. shortly afterwards, many were sent this invitation on facebook to watch a livestream of his funeral, in return for a fee. it was a scam. the livestream didn't exist. tony's picture had been stolen and scammers were attempting to trick his friends out

of their credit card details. we've been to meet tony's sister, natasha. just, it makes you feel angry that somebody— just, it makes you feel angry that somebody was using my brother's funeral. _ somebody was using my brother's funeral, death, whatever, as some way of— funeral, death, whatever, as some way of trying to make money. it is so upsetting. sadly, natasha's experience isn't unique. it's a relatively new scam, so there aren't any official figures, but some funeral directors say it's happening three orfour times a week. we're not saying that all livestream invitations or donation pages are fake. but here's how you can help protect yourself. always check with the family or funeral director to confirm whether the link is legitimate before handing over any of your personal details. if a funeral is being livestreamed, there should not be a cost as that is usually —

there should not be a cost as that is usually covered in the funeral fee _ is usually covered in the funeral fee the — is usually covered in the funeral fee. the link should come directly from _ fee. the link should come directly from the — fee. the link should come directly from the funeral director. facebook�*s advice is to report suspected scams — but we spoke to one funeral director who says it's not always that easy. facebook is such a faceless system. or we _ facebook is such a faceless system. or we can _ facebook is such a faceless system. or we can do — facebook is such a faceless system. or we can do is report it, like we are asked — or we can do is report it, like we are asked to— or we can do is report it, like we are asked to do. we get no contact back _ are asked to do. we get no contact back we _ are asked to do. we get no contact back. we ask all the people who have seen it— back. we ask all the people who have seen it to _ back. we ask all the people who have seen it to report it as well but nothing — seen it to report it as well but nothing is _ seen it to report it as well but nothing is done, we never hear anything — nothing is done, we never hear anything. there is no one to contact _ we put edd's points to facebook�*s owner meta. it said it's committed to removing fraudulent content quickly and encourages users to report scams to them and to the police. let us know if you've had experience of this. get in touch in the usual ways, details are on the screen now — and please don't forget to leave us your name and where you're watching us from this morning.

a really upsetting scam. thank you. the mum of a young boy with complex needs is calling for all special schools in england to have cctv installed, after her 13—year—old son was attacked in the playground by a teaching assistant. 61—year—old william kevin clifford, was given a suspended sentence of nine months. ruth clegg reports. a young boy, attacked in the playground. not by another student, but by a man he trusted, his teaching assistant. the footage is grainy, but it clearly shows him kicking, pushing and kneeing him. it lasts 20 minutes. i was just absolutely devastated. this is a prolonged attack on an extremely, the most vulnerable possible, person.

toby had felt safe at school. but then charlotte got a phone call to say her son had been assaulted by her teaching assistant. your whole world just turns upside down in one second, just by hearing that. toby is 13. he is autistic and cannot speak, so he couldn't tell his mum what had happened. when he came home in the evening, he pulled out a large patch on the back of his head, that's a really strong marker for anxiety. he'd just got marks on him that were really unexplainable, really horrible bruising to his knees, really nasty grazing to his ankles. and obviously, thatjust horrifies you even more, because you just wonder what on god's green earth happened to him. still at that point i had absolutely no idea. it was only at the sentencing, more than a year after the attack, that she could finally see the cctv footage. it must still feel quite painful watching it?

yeah. it makes me really angry as well, to be honest. i've got absolute rage but nowhere to aim at. but yeah, for the life of me, i cannot understand what would make a person want to do that. he hasjust kicked him in the stomach there. again, he is kneeing him in the shoulder, to keep pushing him back. toby, as you can see, is just completely submissive. hejust wants him to leave him alone. this is where toby was attacked, in the playground at this special educational needs school in wolverhampton. charlotte is calling for all schools like this, including those educational settings where there are vulnerable children, often with complex needs, who might not be able to speak out, to have cctv installed. at the moment, it's down to the individual school to make that decision. many choose not to. one headteachers�* union says privacy and costs are among the issues schools have to consider. and serious incidents like this are rare.

campaigners say it is the only way families can find out what happened to their child. it's very, very difficult to be looking at your child and look at their little bodies covered in bruises, abrasions, and see how upset they are. and you don't know what happened. if we had cctv cameras, the outcomes would be and should be so much different. for charlotte, she knows that without cctv it would have been very difficult to prosecute her son's abuser. 61—year—old william clifford pleaded guilty to a charge of child cruelty and was given a nine—month suspended sentence. charlotte believes it is far too lenient. i'm heartbroken, disgusted, ifeel like, you know, you... you could steal a bicycle and go to prison, but you harm a child and as long as you're sorry, it's ok.

it's been over a year since the attack. toby is back at the same school. a place, which has worked hard to ensure he feels safe again. well done. give me five. the head teacher told us they followed all processes correctly, and children's safety and well—being are always at the heart of everything they do. the school that toby attends, the staff are absolutely formidable. the school itself is excellent. but still, this happened. if it can happen there, it can happen absolutely anywhere. and that is why these vulnerable children need cctv as an extra layer of protection. ruth clegg, bbc news. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london. i'm alice salfield.

a person's been arrested after a man in his 70s died in a house fire in east london on saturday afternoon. the met said the fire on oval road north in dagenham was being treated as suspicious, and are investigating whether it could be linked to two others which happened in the same area. eurostar says it expects to run a full timetable between london and paris today, following three days of disruption caused by sabotage in france. around one in four trains were cancelled over the weekend after a series of fires on the french high speed rail network. it's still not clear who was behind them, or whether they were deliberately timed to disrupt the olympic opening ceremony. new data from city hall shows nearly £30 million has been spent on tackling tube noise over the last five years. the money's covered rail grinding work to manage defects, as well as machine and staff costs. tfl says reducing the noise remains a priority.

today's evening standard will be the last ever to be printed on a monday. from next month the free newspaper will only appear in print on tuesdays, wednesdays and thursdays, and in due course will be published weekly. its circulation has dropped by two thirds in the last five years, due partly to more home working and wifi on the tube. now, as part of our series the 32 and the city, we've been to westminster to meet george skeggs. he fell in love with soho in the 50s and has become such a fixture he's depicted on a mural of the area's history. affectionately known as soho george, he's been telling us why he's arguably the best—dressed man in the west end. it's all about detail with me, though. it's all about detail. look — double cuffs, cuff links, tie pin, you know? it's all about detail, right the way down to my shoes and socks. if they don't work for me, i won't wear them. let's take a look at the tubes now.

let's get your weather with kate. good morning. this warm spell is set to continue for the next few days at least. this was as itjust started to get lighter around 4:30 this morning. very little in the way of cloud across london. it's going to be dry, very warm with plenty of sunshine today. the wind is also very light and the temperature continues to rise. we're looking at a maximum of 28 celsius, but the potential is there for it to get a little bit higher. now into this evening again, it's going to be very warm. could start to feel quite humid. the minimum temperature, clear skies of course, 13 to 15 celsius as we head into tomorrow morning. another bright start to tuesday, another dry day, plenty of sunshine tomorrow. the wind is light. temperatures getting a little higher, maximum 30 celsius. but again, the potential is there for them to rise a degree or two higher than that. now it's going to be a very uncomfortable night tuesday into wednesday, with temperatures in central london potentially not dropping

much below 18 or 19. for wednesday, there is a chance of a thundery shower. that's all from me — but head to our website for plenty more including the mayor still hoping to bring wrestlemania to london. bye— bye. hello, this is breakfast with ben thompson and sally nugent. the chancellor, rachel reeves, will announce billions of pounds of spending cuts later, blaming what she'll claim is a £20 billion black hole in the uk's accounts, left by the conservatives. she'll also accuse rishi sunak of covering up the true state of the public finances. but the tories say all the figures were available to labour before the election. we're joined now by pat mcfadden, chancellor of the duchy of lancaster. morning to you. let's talk about this £28 billion black hole. how

have you come to that number? == this £28 billion black hole. how have you come to that number? -- 20 billion. have you come to that number? -- 20 billion- we _ have you come to that number? -- 20 billion. we knew _ have you come to that number? -- 20 billion. we knew we _ have you come to that number? -- 20 billion. we knew we were _ have you come to that number? -- 20 billion. we knew we were going - have you come to that number? -- 20 billion. we knew we were going to - billion. we knew we were going to inherit a difficult situation during the election. certain things were known and were public. for example, that living standards were lower at the end of the last parliament a at the end of the last parliament a at the start. we knew about the debt levels. and we knew it was going to be a tough situation. but in the few weeks since we have taken office we have found there were other unfunded pressures that the government, the previous government, didn't reveal during the election campaign. some of those revolve around asylum and immigration, where, for example, the rwanda scheme was costed at £400 million. we found 700 billion was spent on it, to send just four volunteers. —— 700 million. we found the education secretary was sitting in a letter from the pay review body about a teachers�* pay offer that wasn�*t revealed during the election.

there are other pressures too. they all add up to a very significant amount of money. it is that picture of the chancellor will be revealing in full to parliament later today. it sounds very much like you are framing this as new information, but let me remind you that injune the chancellor said this to the financial times. we have got the obr now. we know things are in a pretty bad state. you don�*t need to win an election to find that out. there is —— those were her exact words. isn�*t framing this as new information a little bit disingenuous? trio. framing this as new information a little bit disingenuous? no, because ou are little bit disingenuous? no, because you are assuming — little bit disingenuous? no, because you are assuming the _ little bit disingenuous? no, because you are assuming the obr _ little bit disingenuous? no, because you are assuming the obr knew - little bit disingenuous? no, because you are assuming the obr knew all| you are assuming the obr knew all about this and they have been told about this and they have been told about it. it�*s true she said that before the election and it�*s true we knew we would inherit a tough situation. but what we have found in the few weeks since we have taken office is that it is even tougher because there are things we have found that were not revealed before the election. that�*s what lies behind today�*s statement from the chancellor. and it is going to mean

some tough decisions because when we fought the election we said we would put financial stability first. the public expect us to stick by that. and that is what we will do. i know your colleague, steve reid, said yesterday that in some cases there is information that this was deliberately covered up by the conservatives. can we expect to see any evidence to be released about that? i any evidence to be released about that? 4' ., . ., , that? i think the chancellor will be re that? i think the chancellor will be pretty open _ that? i think the chancellor will be pretty open today _ that? i think the chancellor will be pretty open today and _ that? i think the chancellor will be pretty open today and candid - that? i think the chancellor will be pretty open today and candid with | pretty open today and candid with the public, as she should be, about what she has found. for example, the government didn�*t tell us they were emptying the country�*s reserve, which is for emergencies. you do get emergencies are sometimes in the course of a financial year. they were emptying that to pay for the costs of their failures on asylum and immigration. so there are a number of things that will be revealed today that they didn�*t say before the election. and what it all

adds up to is that they were just running away from the situation. the chancellor, the former chancellor, now the shadow chancellor, jeremy hunt, he admitted to his shadow cabinet it was tax cuts the government were promising before the election, they could not be afforded this year. that is a very revealing admission. it shows they knew during the campaign that they couldn�*t deliver the tax cuts that they were promising. that tells you quite a lot about their real knowledge of the financial situation that is going to be bequeathed to whoever won the general election. it�*s won the general election. it's interesting — won the general election. it's interesting you should talk about tax because we had helen wakeley on just over an hour ago. she said the government is now setting up a narrative which will lead to putting up narrative which will lead to putting up tax. is that what you are going to do? ., ., , up tax. is that what you are going to do? ., , ., ., up tax. is that what you are going todo? ., , ., .,, ., to do? today is not a budget. today is about the — to do? today is not a budget. today is about the tough _ to do? today is not a budget. today is about the tough spending - is about the tough spending decisions. today is about setting out the picture that we found. we

said during the election that we wouldn�*t put up the rates of income tax and vat or national insurance, we will stick by that. that is what we will stick by that. that is what we will stick by that. that is what we will do. that is what we said before the election and that is what we say today. we before the election and that is what we say today-— we say today. we know that paul johnson from _ we say today. we know that paul johnson from the _ we say today. we know that paul johnson from the ifs _ we say today. we know that paul johnson from the ifs has - we say today. we know that paulj johnson from the ifs has pointed we say today. we know that paul- johnson from the ifs has pointed out the 20 billion figure is pretty much exactly the same asjeremy hunt�*s national insurance pre—election cut. that is quite convenient, is it? an easy change to make due in terms of advice on tax, that is an interesting representation. but we said before the _ interesting representation. but we said before the election _ interesting representation. but we said before the election we - interesting representation. but we i said before the election we wouldn't said before the election we wouldn�*t raise national insurance or vat or income tax. but i think people expect us to stick by that. ibihd income tax. but i think people expect us to stick by that. and you will? yes, — expect us to stick by that. and you will? yes, those _ expect us to stick by that. and you will? yes, those promises - expect us to stick by that. and you will? yes, those promises remain. expect us to stick by that. and you - will? yes, those promises remain. we iet will? yes, those promises remain. we get confirmation _ will? yes, those promises remain. we get confirmation about _ will? yes, those promises remain. we get confirmation about the _ will? yes, those promises remain. we get confirmation about the public - get confirmation about the public sector pay deal today. and we know there is a recommendation for an above inflation pay rise. is the £8

billion that that will cost included in this 20 billion that you are talking about today?- in this 20 billion that you are talking about today? well, the chancellor _ talking about today? well, the chancellor will _ talking about today? well, the chancellor will set _ talking about today? well, the chancellor will set out - talking about today? well, the chancellor will set out the - talking about today? well, the - chancellor will set out the position on public sector pay this afternoon. it is always a balancing judgment. i would ask people to remember two things. first of all, the remit for the pay review bodies that recommended public sector pay rises was set by the previous conservative government, not by us, so they will have known roughly what was coming, even though they didn�*t tell us during the election. and secondly, when it comes to rewarding public sector workers, we of course want people to be paid fairly. we have also got to remember the disruption and inconvenience caused to the public by industrial action over the past couple of years. we want, for example, to get a free health service back working normally so we

can get the waiting lists down and we can start to turn around a service that has been in crisis for far too long. so we take all of that into the round when making a decision about public sector pay. and the details of that will be announced by the chancellor this afternoon. what i asked you is, is the £8 billion included in this 20 billion figure you talk about now? everything will be included in what rachel reeves will set out this afternoon. thank you. the time now, 20 minutes to eight or. there was a lot of action in the pool yesterday. john is with us. adam peatyjust missing out. two hundredths of a second. it was that close with adam peaty going for what could have been three consecutive olympic gold medals in the breaststroke. but it was that tight. that was how far he missed out by. he got a silver. but i think still

for him personally after all the difficulties he has had, it was still a golden night for him, even though he took silver when of course he is so used to getting gold, isn�*t he? the emotion poured from adam peaty, as he finished with silver, but said they were tears ofjoy, missing out on gold by the smallest of margins. it couldn�*t have been tighter. so tight, in fact, he finished hoint second as he aimed to become just the second man in history to win the same swimming event at three consecutive games. italy�*s nicolo martinenghi took it byjust two hundredths of a second. the relationship that i�*ve got with the sport is, i�*m all in. and that comes at a cost of, you know, spending time with my boy, spending time doing things i wanted to do as an older man. i�*ve taken a break from the sport because it broke me. and then, trying to find a way back, i�*ve already won because my heart is so happy. i�*m so grateful that i can theoretically lose, but still feel like i have won. i wish i wasn�*t so emotional, but that�*s my super strength.

and i�*m looking forward to using this emotion for the rest of my life and teaching my future children how to use it in moments like this. and truly enjoy what you do, no matter how hard the track is. yes, you can see what it meant for him. the first british medal of the day was a brilliant bronze for kimberley woods in the women�*s kayak singles final. woods was hoping for redemption after she finished last in tokyo. she produced a clean run to clinch her first olympic medal, as australia�*s jessica fox took gold. she has another chance to top the podium in kayak cross next week — a discipline making its olympic debut — and woods is the reigning world champion. one of the most dramatic moments came from andy murray and his doubles partner dan evans yesterday. against japan�*s taro daniel and kei nishikori, the pair came from a set down to level the match at roland garros. they looked to be out of it in the deciding tie—break, but saved five match points

to complete a barely believable victory and make it into the second round. you can understand those celebrations. andy murray, 37 years old, a two—time olympic gold medallist, really enjoying it. in the moment, like, when we finished the match, i mean, both of us were just laughing. i mean, you know, i haven�*t celebrated a match win like that since, oh, eh, maybe the kokkinakis match in australia. but, yeah, i mean, whatan amazing, amazing feeling, like, to get through that. you know, there wasjust a bit of shock, you know, genuine happiness at the end of it. and, yeah, glad i came! well worth sticking around for. there�*s a flip side, of course, with devastation for athletes who don�*t make it through. and there was a huge shock as medal hopeful chelsie giles was knocked out in the second round of the women�*s 52kg judo. giles had won bronze for team gb at the tokyo olympics, but she lost to brazil�*s larissa pimenta

in the golden score round, where the first person to score decides the result. you put in a lot of work and it can be done in a second. that�*s how judo works. you only get one chance. that�*s it. rosie eccles who was controversially knocked out of the women�*s 66kg boxing on a split—decision. welshwoman eccles won gold at the commonwealth games two years ago, and she appeared to be on the front foot throughout the three—round bout. but the judges voted 3—2 in favour of poland�*s aneta rygielska, drawing some boos in the stadium. closer to home, england have been making the most of the good weather, winning the third and final test against west indies at edgbaston. mark wood took five wickets as the tourists were bowled out for 175. and chasing 82 to win, captain ben stokes promoted himself to open the batting — and he finished the game off with a six.

stokes had earlier secured a place in the history books, with england�*s fastest ever test half—century. they won by ten wickets, inside three days, and took the series 3—0. and there were plenty of twists and turns at the belgian grand prix — the last race before the summer break. and ultimately, heartbreak for george russell, who won it, only for the sweet taste of champagne to turn sour when the stewards declared his mercedes car was under the minimum weight limit at the finish, and was disqualified. victory instead going to team mate lewis hamilton. you�*d want to be a fly on the wall in the room where the team gathered after that. in the room where the team gathered afterthat. i in the room where the team gathered after that. i can imagine that was pretty awkward. we will be speaking to kimberley woods after that kayak success in the olympics. that is about half an hour. thank you.

it is exactly quarter to eight. carol has some rather splendid weather for us this morning. good morning. i don�*t think i have ever had such a good build—up before! thank you. this morning it is a mile start to the day across many areas. and as we go through this week you will find it is going to be very warm or hot the first couple of days of the week. tomorrow in the south—east of england we could reach 32 celsius. but by mid week we started to see the weather breakdown with some thunderstorms developing. by the end of the week it will turn fresher with sunshine and also a few showers. what we have today�*s high pressure still in charge. a weather front coming in from the atlantic is introducing figure cloud and some splashes of rain in the north—west. here it is going to be breezy. you can see a lot of dry conditions and a lot of sunshine. some fairweather lot of dry conditions and a lot of sunshine. some fair weather cloud developing through the course of the day. some showers in western scotland into northern ireland. as the weather front comes in, it

introduces a thicker cloud and spots of rain and the breezy conditions. these are the temperatures. 15 in stornoway, 27 in hull, 28 or 29 towards london. this evening and overnight you can see where the weather front is as it continues to journey southwards and eastwards. the rain tends to fizzle. there will be some clear skies around. the likelihood is we will see some patchy mist and fog form around south east england. it is a cold —— 11 to 15 degrees overnight. we start tomorrow with the remnants of this weather front. tomorrow with the remnants of this weatherfront. it really tomorrow with the remnants of this weather front. it reallyjust disintegrates. a band of cloud really dissipates and we have high pressure firmly in charge of the weather. there is the week weather front. a lot of dry weather and are once again a lot of sunshine, fairweather cloud building up. the odd shower in the west of scotland. it is likely to be windy in shetland. in that sunshine temperatures could get up to around

32 celsius around the london area into east anglia and the south—east. it is going to be a very warm or hot day across the board. as we move on beyond wednesday, into wednesday overnight period, tuesday into wednesday morning, what you find is it is going to be different in terms of the temperature between the north and the south. in the north of scotland we could see cabbages for the way to three degrees. in the south—east of england, 18 degrees. at the same time we will see thunderstorms developing heading towards south—west england. they will be with us first thing on wednesday. more of them getting into the south—eastern corner and around the south—eastern corner and around the midlands. cloud at times in north—east england and north—east scotland, which will make it quite grey. a lot of dry weather, a fair bit of sunshine, not quite as hot. we are still looking at 15 to about 26 or 27 celsius. those collars much more summery. i

like it when it goes orange. —— colours. you�*ll remember that here on breakfast we�*ve followed the story of emma webb, who set herself the extraordinary challenge of pulling a life—sized horse for 157 miles, in memory of her teenage daughter brodie, who took her own life. well, emma is back in the saddle — or rather back on the road. she�*s planning to trek from newport in wales to birmingham�*s horse of the year show in september. let�*s take a look back at her journey so far.

emma webbjoins us now. morning. we havejust seen morning. we have just seen the morning. we havejust seen the most incredible pictures of you out on the last walk. what has made you decide to go back out there again? morning. well, after the walk i was invited along to the national equine show at the nec in birmingham, which is a big shopping village, along with miles. people were asking me, when are you going to walk again? i didn�*t need asking twice. i thought,

if people still want to see him and want to see us, raising awareness, there was no question i was going to start planning again. that there was no question i was going to start planning again.— start planning again. that raising awareness issue _ start planning again. that raising awareness issue is _ start planning again. that raising awareness issue is so _ start planning again. that raising awareness issue is so important. that is what you are doing this, as well as raising money. miles really helped. people stop and talk, don�*t they? he helped. people stop and talk, don't the ? ., , , ., , ., they? he does, yeah. they took out esterda they? he does, yeah. they took out yesterday for _ they? he does, yeah. they took out yesterday for a _ they? he does, yeah. they took out yesterday for a little _ they? he does, yeah. they took out yesterday for a little run. _ they? he does, yeah. they took out yesterday for a little run. people i yesterday for a little run. people were stopping us and saying, remember you walking last year. they open up and share their experiences of eitherfamily or open up and share their experiences of either family or friends suffering with low mental well—being, or other stories of suicide. it is about breaking down the stigma around mental health. we need to start talking about it. iloathed need to start talking about it. what is the magic _ need to start talking about it. what is the magic year? _ need to start talking about it. what is the magic year? what _ need to start talking about it. what is the magic year? what is it about being out with miles that makes people able to feel more honest and to maybe be more vulnerable, what is it? i to maybe be more vulnerable, what is it? , ~ , ., it? ijust think he is an icebreaker. _ it? ijust think he is an icebreaker. people - it? ijust think he is an | icebreaker. people see it? ijust think he is an - icebreaker. people see him and it? ijust think he is an _ icebreaker. people see him and come over and wonder what he is all

eurostar says it expects to run a full timetable between london and paris today — following three days of disruption caused by sabotage in france. around one in four trains were cancelled after a series of fires on the french high speed rail network. it�*s still not clear who was behind them or whether they were timed to deliberately disrupt the olympic opening ceremony. new data from city hall shows nearly £30 million has been spent on tackling tube noise over the last five years. the money�*s covered rail grinding work to manage defects — as well as machine and staff costs. tfl says reducing the noise remains a priority. today�*s evening standard will be the last ever to be printed on a monday. from next month, the free newspaper will only appear in print on tuesdays, wednesdays and thursdays, and will eventually be published weekly. the paper�*s circulation has dropped by two thirds in the last five years. now, as part of our series the 32 and the city,

we�*ve been to westminster to meet george skeggs. he fell in love with soho in the 50s and has become such a fixture he�*s depicted on a mural of the area�*s history. affectionately known as soho george, he�*s been telling us why he�*s arguably the best—dressed man in the west end. it�*s all about detail with me, though. it�*s all about detail. look — double cuffs, cuff links, tie pin, you know? it�*s all about detail, right the way down to my shoes and socks. if they don�*t work for me, i won�*t wear them. let�*s take a look at the tubes now. there are minor delays on the hammersmith and city line, severe delays on the northern line and the overground has no service between hackney downs and chingford until sunday. let�*s get your weather with kate. good morning. this warm spell is set to continue for the next few days at least. this was as itjust started to get lighter around 4:30 this morning. very little in the way of cloud across london. it�*s going to be dry, very warm

with plenty of sunshine today. the wind is also very light and the temperature continues to rise. we�*re looking at a maximum of 28 celsius, but the potential is there for it to get a little bit higher. now into this evening again, it�*s going to be very warm. could start to feel quite humid. the minimum temperature, clear skies of course, 13 to 15 celsius as we head into tomorrow morning. another bright start to tuesday, another dry day, plenty of sunshine tomorrow. the wind is light. temperatures getting a little higher, maximum 30 celsius. but again, the potential is there for them to rise a degree or two higher than that. now it�*s going to be a very uncomfortable night tuesday into wednesday, with temperatures in central london potentially not dropping much below 18 or 19. for wednesday, there is a chance of a thundery shower. that�*s all from me this morning. i�*ll be back with your lunch news at 1.30pm. until then, there�*s plenty more on our website. bye— bye.

we are on bbc until nine o�*clock this morning. carers are facing calls to pay money back. this is the point we say goodbye to be was on bbc one.

good morning. welcome to breakfast with ben thompson and sally nugent. our headlines today... commentator: peaty in four. who�*s going to get the title? it is. oh, it�*s gone to martinenghi of italy. swimmer adam peaty misses out on olympic gold in paris by the fox is good morning. today and tomorrow are going to be very warm or hot across the board with temperatures peaking tomorrow in the south—east at 32 celsius. i will have all the details shortly. it�*s monday, the 29th ofjuly. it was a dramatic second day at the olympics for team gb,

winning two medals in the swimming and kayak. adam peaty won silver in the 100m breaststroke final last night — missing out on gold by 200ths of a second, while kimberley woods won bronze in the women�*s kayak single. joe lynskey reports. for eight years, adam peaty has pushed his sport to new limits. he�*s not used to silver but he now has perspective. in the 100m breaststroke, he went for a third gold in the row and britain�*s first at these games. he missed out by a margin of two hundredths of a second. commentator: the gold has gone to martinenghi of italy. _ and a joint silver medal, it's gone to adam peaty of great britain. less than two years ago, he said this sport had broken him. to get so close might have felt cruel. but, for peaty, the breakthrough wasjust to be here. it�*s just incredibly hard. like, to win it once and to win it again then to win it again. i�*m not crying because i�*ve come second, i�*m crying because itjust took so much to get here.

on the fast—flowing waters, kimberley woods held back her own tears. in the kayak, she�*d just made her ride for redemption. she�*d raced the k1 singles at the tokyo games but penalties in the final meant she�*d finished last. this time she was flawless and now she had to wait. when the reigning champion made this mistake, woods had her medal. commentator: there's kimberley woods, the bronze medal- winner for great britain. i'm kind of speechless, you know. all the hard work that's gone into it, all the support from home. yeah, it will hopefully inspire some people to talk about mental health but also, like, take up canoeing and have a watch over the next few days. on the courts of roland garros, they�*d not won a medal, they�*d won a first—round match. but this is what it means for andy murray to still be in it. for so long, his olympics and with it his career looked set to end.

he and dan evans faced the japanese pair. at a set and a break down, they started a fight back. commentator: wonderful response. suddenly, there is real belief among the brits here. doubles deciders are first to ten points. whenjapan led 9—4, they had five for the match. when murray is on the brink, he finds the extraordinary. somehow in paris, he is still in the sport. cheering. commentator: only andy can write this one, only andy! _ what an amazing, amazing feeling to get through that. you know, it�*sjust a bit shock, like, genuine happiness at the end of it. and, yeah, glad i came. it could have been farewell, it turned into a fight back. the last event of his career brought one of murray�*s greatest hits. joe lynskey, bbc news. our sports correspondent katie gornalljoins us now from paris.

a very dramatic day, what can we expect from day three at the olympics? it expect from day three at the olympics?— expect from day three at the ol mics? ., olympics? it was. there was one lace to olympics? it was. there was one place to start _ place to start today and that is at the aquatic centre with tom daley, he will be competing in his fifth olympic games. we have seen him growing up on the screens in front of us. the 14—year—old in beijing in 2008, his first olympics, committee being here in paris as a 30—year—old dad two. he has a new dive partner, he will be competing alongside noel williams. he had a fairy tale gold medal he won back in tokyo three years ago. he was persuaded back to the pool by his son, robbie, he wanted to see him compete at any olympics. he is. the added bonus for his fans is we get to see him doing some knitting as well. he was

spotted at the women�*s diving looking what appeared to be knitting a jumper. that is the main focus today. also a big shout for gold in the mountain biking with tom pidcock. he has had an exhausting summer so far. he was in the tour de france when he is here competing in the road race, mountain biking. he is the defending champion and a favourite. plenty going on at the eventing at the palace of versailles. that is where team gb are in the final round of the dressage and the cross country. it is the showjumping and they are in pole position, five points ahead of the french were looking for back—to—back gold medals. the final thing, we have had update about the triathlon and had practised for the second day has been cancelled because the water quality is not good enough. a statement from the organisers say they are confident it will go ahead as planned. the mail

triathlon takes place tomorrow. thank you. the chancellor, rachel reeves, is set to scrap some major infrastructure projects, blaming what she says is a £20 billion black hole in the public finances, left by the conservatives. in a speech later, she�*ll accuse the previous government of refusing to make difficult decisions. our political correspondent nick eardleyjoins us now from westminster. nick, what more can we expect the chancellor to say later? in short, it is a lot worse than labour thought. the blame game will not get under way right away. rachel reeves will point the finger at the conservative saying when they were in power they didn�*t take the big decisions needed in the cupboard up how bad the public finances were. rachel reeves will say that to try to bridge the gap in the public books, some difficult decisions will

have to be made. they will start today. i think the government will cancel the plan for a tunnel under stonehenge. i think some hospital projects that were planned by the last, but hadn�*t been fully funded are going to be cancelled as well, which will be pretty controversial. there will be tax rises today, something that will happen down the line but isn�*t part of the announcement today part of the debate we are going to here is whether labour are being honest when they say they didn�*t know all of this. treasury insiders are absolutely adamant they will publish absolutely adamant they will publish a document later that will have new facts and figures in it, stuff we have not seen before. you will remember, during the election campaign in breakfast across the bbc, we were talking about a big spending squeeze coming under the current projections. that is what the conservatives will save is that there will say this stuff was laid out in documents that are publicly available. we all accuse labour of

not being honest during the election campaign are now trying to rule the pitch, as we say in politics, for tax rises. but it is a big day. the new government, the new labour government, says there are big problems in the public finances. kemi badenoch has announced that she is standing to be the next leader of the conservative party. the former business secretary is the 6th mp to enter the leadership race. nominations close this afternoon, though the winner won�*t be known until november. israel�*s security cabinet has authorised prime minister benjamin netanyahu and his defence minister to decide on the "manner and timing" of a response to a rocket strike in the israeli occupied golan heights, which killed 12 children. we can speak now to our middle east correspondent yolande knell. she has been telling us how precarious the situation is. this remains another _

precarious the situation is. try 3 remains another dangerous moment. the middle east is on edge waiting to see what happens next. we had benjamin netanyahu meeting top security officials to decide on possible responses. israel fully holds the power of armed group and political party has below responsible for what happened on saturday when we had these awful scenes up in the israeli—occupied golan heights. this is an arab town where 12 people, mostly teenagers and children, were killed on a football pitch by a rocket. has bella —— hezbollah denied it was responsible. we have seen the tit—for—tat attacks that have gone on. israel promises a harsh response we are not sure what that will look

like. the risk is that hezbollah could be. into a counter attack and that could lead to all—out war. a woman, who was attacked while out walking her dog in suffolk, has died in hospital. 57—year—old anita rose was found unconscious on a track in brantham on wednesday. a 45—year—old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder. will vernon reports. the last known images of anita rose. the 57—year—old was out walking her dog early on wednesday morning when she was attacked. she was discovered critically injured, lying near a railway line. but ms rose has now died from her injuries in a local hospital. her family said she was well known and loved in the community, a mum of six children, and a grandma to 13. in a statement, suffolk police said a 45—year—old man, who was arrested on saturday afternoon on suspicion of attempted murder, has now been rearrested on suspicion of murder.

and police say they have now located the victim�*s phone, which could contain key evidence. but they still haven�*t found her distinctive pinkjacket, which she was pictured wearing. officers haven�*t given details of any possible motive behind the attack, saying only that they believe the suspect was unknown to the victim. will vernon, bbc news. gps have threatened to bring the nhs to a "standstill", if they decide to stage their first industrial action in 60 years. family doctors in england are being balloted by the british medical association amid rows over the new contract for gp services. the union said strikes could start as early as thursday and last "months". in a statement, the government claimed the health secretary has met with the chair of the bma�*s gp committee to discuss their priorities. greater manchester police is continuing its appeal

for information after footage emerged showing the moments before a police officer kicked and stamped on a man at manchester airport last week. the video shows police officers being attacked and punched to the ground. our north of england reporter, rowan bridge, joins us now from rochdale — where the man who was involved in the incident is from. rowan, what kind of information are police asking for? i think what has become clear, the set of circumstances around what happened exactly at manchester airport terminal to almost a week ago are still somewhat unclear. the police have said there were at least two altercations between members of the public which happened at the apple before the events which were caught on video, where you see police officers being punched in the beer which came out over the weekend and then the video which went viral

way you see a man being attacked by police when he gets kicked in the head and then stamped on. those officers are still under the care of medical professionals, apparently. one of them you may remember suffered a broken nose on tuesday and the violence. the man seen kicked in the head and stamped on by a police officer is traumatised by what happened and needs further medical scans. sources close to the family say they are not a criminal family say they are not a criminal family and they say anyone who has broken the law should face due process. four men were arrested on suspicion of assault and affray and released on bail over those incidents. the chief constable of greater manchester police has expressed his profound regret at the shock and upset caused by the immense and has promised to keep meeting with members of the local community to keep them informed of developments. in terms of those developments, there are two investigation is ongoing, one by the

independent office of police conduct into potential criminal assault by a police officer and the events on tuesday evening. john anderson, best known for his role as a referee on the tv series gladiators, has died aged 92. gladiators ready! that is going to wake you up this morning, isn�*t it? the scottish sports coach appeared in the game show�*s original run, which aired from 1992 to 2000. during his career, he also trained more than 100 olympic athletes. a statement from the tv show said john would "forever be remembered" for his iconic voice. he was the sound of saturday night. he was the sound of saturday night. he was, wasn�*t he? everyone paid attention at that point. you wouldn�*t argue with him. you don�*t

argue with carol either. she has some good news for us this morning. you would not need to argue, she is always right. bless you! i wish that were true. a bright star in many parts of the country these are the temperatures you might expect. shoeburyness is already 19. belfast 13 degrees. if anything, it will get warmer as we go through today and tomorrow. a lot of clear skies around. afair tomorrow. a lot of clear skies around. a fair bit of sunshine and fair weather cloud bubbling up. one or two showers, western scotland and northern ireland. later the cloud in the west introducing spots of rain. it will turn breezy as well. further south and is lots of dry weather. temperatures up to about 28, maybe 29. this evening and overnight the weather front bringing the cloud and rain to the west will sink further south and it will tend to fizzle.

these are the overnight lows, 11 to 15. the start tomorrow with a week by the front. the cloud tending to break up. again a lot of dry weather around. some fairweather break up. again a lot of dry weather around. some fair weather cloud developing. one or two showers across the north of scotland, it will be windy across shetland. temperatures 15 to 31, 32 in the south—east. if we reach 32, that will make it their warmest day this year so far. it will be very warm or hot more or less across the board. thank you. look at that! that looks nice, doesn�*t it? imagine trying to navigate if you are blind or partially sighted.

the national federation of the blind of the uk is calling for so called floating bus stops, which are separated from the pavement by a cycle lane, to be removed, describing them as "chaotic, confusing and dangerous" for the visually impaired. thomas magill reports. you see that kerb�*s not very high. mm—hm. the lowering of the kerbs, it�*s all the same colour. it all merges into one. sarah is visually impaired and relies on her guide dog nelly to get around. but since this so—called shared space was introduced outside leicester train station, separating the footpath from the bus stop by a cycle lane, nelly has become disorientated, leaving sarah feeling vulnerable and unable to use some of the city�*s public transport. you could just get on and off a bus that pulled to a pavement. you�*d have none of this conflict between cyclists, e—scooters and other micro—mobility. um, and i�*djust do it and just walk into town. but now ijust won�*t do it because it�*s too dangerous and you�*re thinking, what�*s going to happen to us? is somebody going to hit us? it�*s just terrifying. and it�*s notjust those who are visually impaired who are at risk.

these near—misses between other pedestrians and cyclists were recently caught on camera by campaigners. in leicester, there�*s concern the design is confusing, badly planned and dangerous. one guy come down here and he must have been doing it at least 25 mile an hour. nearly took... if he�*d have took somebody out, they�*d have been hospitalised. i'm always turning around. i'm scared of getting run over. but not only by cycles. it's them scooters, electric scooters. people fly past and i've been knocked over nearly a couple of times, so it is a bit unsafe. so something needs to be done. this is not a safe place to cycle or walk as a pedestrian. now campaigners like sarah gayton wants the new government to ban floating bus stops and redesign those that exist to make it safer for the visually impaired. whilst we were out filming

with sarah, this happened. so... if you're telling me this has to stop here like this. you know, i've justjumped out my skin because that e—scooter flying past me. you know, how can this be safe? they can see us. a near miss from a passing e—scooter going the wrong way up a cycle lane. absolutely abhorrent. and it has to stop. they're not working. they haven't worked since they've been put in for blind and visually impaired people and it's time for a change. a change of design that will allow the bus, like it always did, to come back up to the pavement, so blind, visually impaired people can get on and off the bus directly from the pavement without having to cross or step into a live cycle lane. well, these floating bus stops and the segregated cycleways have been designed to improve safety for cyclists by separating them from all other vehicles. now widely welcomed by those who use them, some have concerns about their design.

the department of transport says... sarah mcmonagle cycles to work every day in london and says herjourney is now much safer since segregated cycle lanes were introduced. she would like to see more in other towns and cities, but says it�*s important they are designed in accordance with the guidance. i must go through maybe six, seven, eight floating bus stops on my way to work, and i think they�*re a great innovation. they mean that you don�*t have to kind of mix with the traffic when you�*re on the same route as a bus. there�*s actually pretty good guidance in place for how they should be designed, but unfortunately we�*re not always seeing that that guidance adhered to. so for cycling uk, we really want to see better compliance and make sure that we are actually designing bus stops in a way that keeps cyclists safe, but also keep pedestrians safe, particularly

visually—impaired people. more of this likely in the future, sarah is hoping a petition recently handed in to the government will bring an end to these shared spaces, so her and nelly can get their independence back. thomas magill, bbc news. some staggering footage in that report. we asked what you thought about floating bus stops. filipo says... in the netherlands, floating bus stops have proven to be highly effective and efficient. success can be attributed to the willingness of individuals to braise tick—macro embrace change and adapt. such as looking left and right before crossing. another saying floating bus stops are not the problem. the issueis bus stops are not the problem. the

issue is cyclists are not upholding the highway code. you showed a cyclist hitting a pedestrian on a zebra crossing. why was a cyclist not to prosecute it in the same way a driver would be? as a visually impaired person, my anxiety increases. people do not slow down when approaching bus stops. i have been knocked off my feet a few times and then being shouted at for being in the way of a cyclist. keep your comments coming in. there are pictures in a report which are really distressing. reflecting this morning on the successful team gb in paris. two medals won. kimberley words winning bronze in the kayak. plenty more chances of

success today. kimberlyjoins us this morning. live from paris for us. good morning. i can see with the olympic medal around your neck, how are you feeling this morning? absolutely buzzing. i am a bit tired. i am so thankful i have this platform to talk about the sport and my amazing bronze medal. it is areat. i my amazing bronze medal. it is great- i can _ my amazing bronze medal. it is great. i can see _ my amazing bronze medal. it is great. i can see how— my amazing bronze medal. it is great. i can see how happy you are to have won it. a very different story this time around from what happened to you at the last olympics in tokyo. happened to you at the last olympics in to 0. ., .,, ., , in tokyo. tokyo was a bit heartbreaking. _ in tokyo. tokyo was a bit heartbreaking. everyone | in tokyo. tokyo was a bit i heartbreaking. everyone is in tokyo. tokyo was a bit - heartbreaking. everyone is still ugly crying, not my finest moment. i was really happy that the guys at the bottom of the course where my team—mates, they were there for me at the bottom of this one. each run, each race i do, i am happy to have

that beautiful medal. very stylish. 0f that beautiful medal. very stylish. of course. thank you. stay with us. plenty more still to come. hello, this is breakfast with ben thompson and sally nugent. good morning. it isjust after 8:30am. unpaid carers are calling for swift government action to overhaul the allowance they can

claim, because some carers have been caught out by having to repay thousands of pounds in overpayments. the charity, carers uk, says the complicated system is causing anxiety and financial hardship. meghan owen reports. the life of a carer, day in, day out, with little respite, is far from simple. but it�*s made even more complex for the thousands caught out by overpayments. just under a million receive carer�*s allowance at £81.90 a week. but for the 175,000 of those carers who also have a job, it is a cliff edge benefit. quite simply, if they earn more than £151 a week after tax and expenses, even byjust a few pennies, they lose all of that allowance. a threshold which, in recent years, has led many carers to court, with some ordered to pay back thousands they have racked up in debt,

and some facing criminal records. back in april, vivian was prosecuted for taking a minimum wage job without telling the department for work and pensions, the dwp, despite being told by a social worker that she didn�*t have to. they seized £16,000 left to her inheritance by her mother. i followed that lady�*s rules, and, you know... this is inheritance money that her mother left her, so, viv is being penalised now for looking after her mum. karina provides round the clock care for her daughter amber, who has complex needs. karina unknowingly earned just above the limit because of the occasional hour of overtime at a part—time supermarketjob. she wasn�*t told for three and a half years when the dwp ordered her to pay back £11,000. the system has to be a lot simpler. the forms have to be easier to fill in so you don�*t these mistakes. you have to be... they need to stop the cliff edge, so that if you earn over 50p too much that

maybe they take that away, not take all of it, because they are pushing people into poverty. with the new government comes new promises. i have asked officials to provide urgent information about what has happened and what went wrong, so we can put this never ever happens again. i know that carers are really pushed to breaking point. we need to resolve this problem. i have demanded action from the department and will be coming forward with more information soon. for the thousands of carers who waited years to be informed of their overpayments, that action can�*t come soon enough. megan owen, bbc news. we�*rejoined now by emily holzhausen from carers uk, and by enka plaku who cares for her 12—year—old son. good morning to you. thank you for

week. i pass the threshold by £6 a day. i am now a full—time carer. i�*m staying home until i find another opportunity to go back to work. i have studied hard, i have got a degree. that is what i love doing, teaching. and ifeel like i am punished because we are over the threshold even with the daywork. what have they told you about that overpayment? what are you being asked to do? do you have to pay that back? i asked to do? do you have to pay that back? ., ., . ,, asked to do? do you have to pay that back? ., ., , back? i have to pay it back. it is £25 every _ back? i have to pay it back. it is £25 every month. _ back? i have to pay it back. it is £25 every month. it _ back? i have to pay it back. it is £25 every month. it is _ back? i have to pay it back. it is £25 every month. it is taken i back? i have to pay it back. it isj £25 every month. it is taken out directly from universal credit because since i resigned i can�*t get universal credit —— i get universal credit. universal credit -- i get universal credit. ~ , universal credit -- i get universal credit. , ., credit. we can see you out there with our credit. we can see you out there with your son — credit. we can see you out there with your son matteo. _ credit. we can see you out there with your son matteo. how- credit. we can see you out there with your son matteo. how has i credit. we can see you out there l with your son matteo. how has all credit. we can see you out there i with your son matteo. how has all of this impacted him? i with your son matteo. how has all of this impacted him?— this impacted him? i don't think he realises much. _ this impacted him? i don't think he realises much. he _ this impacted him? i don't think he realises much. he is _ this impacted him? i don't think he realises much. he is happy - this impacted him? i don't think he realises much. he is happy to i this impacted him? i don't think he realises much. he is happy to have| realises much. he is happy to have his mum home, which in a way, it has

most commonly before the age of 30. lucy harman from hampshire was just 18 when she passed out and was rushed to hospital. 48 hours later, she was told she had crohn�*s. she�*s been speaking to our reporter michele cross about her experience. hi, guys. it�*s lucy here. hope you�*re doing well. i was going to the toilet upwards of 50 times a day. i was losing blood in my stool. my hair was falling out. lucy was 18 and had just started university when she started developing symptoms of ibd. i was losing quite a bit of weight. i was getting a lot of pain in my stomach sort of constantly. there was always something i could blame it on. it quickly became worse. i was just in agony all the time. i stopped eating altogether. i was terrified. i didn�*t want to tell anyone. i didn�*t tell my partner, i didn�*t tell my mum. ijust sort of kept it to myself. nobody really talks about poo

because it�*s so taboo. especially when you are freshly 18, you have just become an adult, you havejust started drinking, you want to sort of live your best life. and for me, when that all went wrong it was really scary. at the time the world was already in the grip of a pandemic, so she didn�*t see her family until christmas. my mum�*s first reaction was, you look so skinny. and my hair was falling out. i was sort of so happy to see them that i think my body suddenly went, you�*ve done it now, you can relax. and i basicallyjust passed out. lucy was rushed to hospital suffering severe internal bleeding. my organs were going in to shut down, so they needed to find out what was wrong with me really fast. so, i was embarrassed. i said, i�*ve got indigestion, which wasn�*t what i had. and normally with crohn�*s disease it takes a couple of years to get diagnosed. it took 48 hours for mine. it was very sudden. she was put on steroids, antibiotics and immunosuppressant injections.

having a diagnosis did really help me. i like to say it was the best thing that ever happened to me, actually, because finding out what was wrong with me gave me the ability to get help. i�*m so, so sad that i hid it, because now i look at it and i go, oh, i wish i had just told someone. lucy has since undergone surgery and says three and a half years on her life is very different. you know, how i am now is not the same to how i was three months ago or two years ago. and so it�*s hard to accept it. but having that label allows me to talk to other people. she now dedicates time to helping others with the condition. i just want to chat your little bit about ibd... there are positive sides to it because i have now created a whole new career in social media, and i love that. when i was diagnosed i used social media pretty early on. i think it was like a coping mechanism for me to begin with. it was a way of putting

it out there and just getting out all my emotions and all my feelings about it. i think the main things i have learned about myself is that i am far stronger than i realise. it�*s an awful condition. and it is a day to day sort of struggle. i encourage everyone to talk about their health. and i think, you would go to the doctor�*s if you had a broken arm or something like that, so why wouldn�*t you go to the doctor if you have a problem with your poo? joining us now is fern howard from the charity crohn�*s and colitis uk. morning to you. lucy�*s experience was really striking. how, in a story is that? ., ., , ., is that? unfortunately, we hear stories like _ is that? unfortunately, we hear stories like lucy's _ is that? unfortunately, we hear stories like lucy's every i is that? unfortunately, we hear stories like lucy's every day. i is that? unfortunately, we hear. stories like lucy's every day. and stories like lucy�*s every day. and 25,000 people a day receive the news that they have crohn�*s disease or colitis. and many of those will be young people. for the quarter of people under 30 when they are

diagnosed, they may dismiss their symptoms, they may delay seeking help. so, this is why as a charity we are raising awareness about what the conditions are, what to look out for, and what to do if you think you may have inflammatory bowel disease. that is the point. people don�*t like talking about it. that is what we all need to get over, is to be able to discuss it and get help if we needed, ratherthanjust to discuss it and get help if we needed, rather than just dismissing it as something that won�*t go away? exactly. as a charity we often use the term, the word or to boo, because while everybody goes to the toilet, we don�*t like talking about it. —— poo. it could be going to the toilet more times a day. having to go exactly. it also remembering that toilet isn�*tjust go exactly. it also remembering that toilet isn�*t just the go exactly. it also remembering that toilet isn�*tjust the only go exactly. it also remembering that toilet isn�*t just the only symptom. some people may experience fatigue, tiredness that doesn�*t go away with sleep. extreme pain in their tummy, in theirjoints. unexplained weight

loss. so, it�*s really important that you listen to your body and look out for some signs that can get checked as soon as possible. here for some signs that can get checked as soon as possible.— for some signs that can get checked as soon as possible. here today what with the treatment _ as soon as possible. here today what with the treatment be _ as soon as possible. here today what with the treatment be for _ as soon as possible. here today what with the treatment be for somebody| with the treatment be for somebody who is diagnosed today? itruthat who is diagnosed today? what ha--ens? who is diagnosed today? what happens? so. _ who is diagnosed today? what happens? so, at _ who is diagnosed today? what happens? so, at the _ who is diagnosed today? wisgt happens? so, at the moment what you would need to do is go to the gp and get referred for test. it is a complex condition to get diagnosed. so, people do tell us that it may take multiple visits to the gp to get referred for the right test. and like a lot of people in this country, people with crohn�*s disease and colitis trying to get a diagnosis are affected by long delays. that�*s something that needs to be addressed by the new government.— to be addressed by the new rovernment. ., , ., ., government. that is one of the issues. government. that is one of the issues- if _ government. that is one of the issues- if it _ government. that is one of the issues. if it needs _ government. that is one of the issues. if it needs several i government. that is one of the l issues. if it needs several visits, just getting one visit sometimes is difficult enough. and if you are already predisposed to dismiss it as something else and think it is not important, getting to that stage of a diagnosis is going to be really difficult? it a diagnosis is going to be really difficult? , ., �* , , ., , difficult? it is. that's why, as well as raising _ difficult? it is. that's why, as well as raising awareness i difficult? it is. that's why, as| well as raising awareness with people, we need to also make sure
