wha'ft you. how did you feel that day? what was your recollection? when i walked on court i couldn't believe the roar of the crowd and i started giggling. i was disappointed i didn't get going in my first set but at the end of the match i was playing well and i wanted it to keep going really. i think she will have a good match today, it will be tough. she will be hoping to emulate you, how far can she go? if she gets passed this match, she could win it because she's in the mix of the eight left. jane, we hope the weather clears up butjohanna konta will play regardless. 0k, thank you. time for a look at the weather. here's chris fawkes. today will be the wettest day of this year's wimbledon championships, and what a contrast we have had weather—wise compared with the sunny skies we had yesterday. it was another warm day across south—east england with the temperatures surging to 27 celsius, the 805 in

5urging to 27 celsius, the 805 in fahrenheit. today it is a different 5tory, good news for gardeners. for those without a garden, it is probably not such exciting news is that we will see this heavy rain. and it has already started to come down pretty heavily across parts of southern wales. it will move eastwards as we go through the rest of the afternoon. a few showers at the moment but we will see them merging into lengthy spells of rain this afternoon. staying wet across the midlands, much of wales and south—west england to take us through the rest of the afternoon. cumbria and northumberland just about missing out, staying dry in northern ireland with sunny spells, and we will see sunshine and showers in scotland. it looks like we'll see this area of high pressure as we go on into thursday. another dry day for thursday with some sunshine. a few isolated showers possible through western areas. the winds will also pick up in western

scotland. temperatures reasonable again, hive of 17 in glasgow and 2a in the london area. there should be afairamount of in the london area. there should be a fair amount of dry weather over the weekend. a spell of rain over friday night. i is pushing into the low 205 in london. jane. thank you very much. reminder of our main story this lunchtime. a major review looks at workers' rights, the gig economy and cash in hand work. employers should pay national insurance. that is all from the that's all from the bbc news at one so it's goodbye from me — have a good afternoon. good afternoon i'm leah boleto. welcome to the bbc sports centre. i'm afraid that's all from us. we're

going to have to head back to the bbc news channel. the previous chair, jason mccartney, who is no longer a member of this house, and others who are very vocal in the campaign for this, and of course, i have to say a really big thank you to andy burnham. in that speech he made before he left parliament set out very clearly why this was unfinished business and we needed to have a public can wiry... inquiry. paul goggins was a huge inspiration. thank you, mr speaker. my honourable friend is right to thank all of these people. there is one person missing from this list and that is herself. i think the

hall house should thank the honourable lady for the hard work she astronomers. an absolutely brilliant campaign. i have got to say this, this shows how parliament should work. her constituents have raised the issue with her, she has pursued doggedly and she has brought us pursued doggedly and she has brought us to this point. last night i had a load of e—mails from constituents who had been affected by this scandal, i want to tell how grateful they are for the work she has done. i'm great grateful, but it was a combined effort from semi—people over $0 combined effort from semi—people over so many years. combined effort from semi—people over so many years. i would to pay my own tribute to my honourable friend. she has been absolutely brokered in her determination in not giving up. i too had in mind my constituent david thomas who came to see me in a very similar circumstance. if he hadn't come to see me, as many other constituents

have done, i would not even have been aware of this scandal never mind deal with it fully. i would also like to pay tribute to national groups who have done so much for those affected. and also corrupt some of the difficulties in that this was a legacy issue from the uk department of health and the complications have of devolved health services across the uk is offering up some of those questions which we will need to address in terms of this inquiry. my honourable friend makes that point well. add like to take the opportunity today to make some comments about the way we handle disasters and to say something about how the best way forward in terms of a hillsborough style inquiry should be handled by the government. and very grateful andi the government. and very grateful and i add my congratulations to the honourable lady for her brilliant leadership on this. but as she agree

with me that while this is incredibly welcome news, there is also an urgency because those people who continue to suffer need help now and there is a danger that this process could go on for years and leave them still waiting for some support? i think the right honourable gentleman makes a very good point. the timetabling of such an inquiry needs to be set out very clearly. i hope the minister might be able to help us with that in his contribution. thank you. i too would like to give my congratulations to herand like to give my congratulations to her and andy bowden. hash she had any indication from downing street about what form this inquiry is going to take? can she give us any clarification on that? i have only seen, like every other member of the house, what is on... 0ut

seen, like every other member of the house, what is on... out in the media. there is going to be a consultation on what form the inquiry will take. i'm sure the minister will be able to help us in his contribution later on. i'm grateful for you giving way. i would like tojoin the grateful for you giving way. i would like to join the tributes to her. grateful for you giving way. i would like tojoin the tributes to her. i think it is an example of how parliament can work well. there is a family in letchworth who said to me asa family family in letchworth who said to me as a family we have suffered years of misery because of this scandal. it is right to consult the victims and their families about the form of the inquiry. absolutely. the honourable gentleman makes the point. i will come onto that. ijust wa nt to point. i will come onto that. ijust want to make some general comments. i don't need to remind the house of the damage that public disasters cause to all those affected. we know from the hillsborough tragedy in 1989 and more recently, of course, the appalling fire at grenfell tower. every public disaster of this

kind is different, their causes are different, the victims suffer in different, the victims suffer in different ways and the measures necessary to support their families differ also. but there is one thing which i feel every victim has a fundamental right to, and that is the right answers. they deserve to be told what went wrong, what went wrong and why it went wrong. the story of the injustice they suffered also needs to be set out and told to the wider public. their voices need to be heard. apologies, compensation and will forms of support are essential, but if they're right a nswe i’s essential, but if they're right answers is not satisfied ifeel they will be denied justice. making a very powerful case and thank her for the work she has done. many victims have died and it is now their families that are still here but they are still grieving and they

need answers as much as the victims. my need answers as much as the victims. my honourable friend is right on that. i just want to go my honourable friend is right on that. ijust want to go back my honourable friend is right on that. i just want to go back to the fa ct that. i just want to go back to the fact that this tragedy, as my honourable friend has just said, has taken the lives of over 2li00 people with haemophilia, infected mainly from blood factor concentrates. many others without reading disorders who have been infected through blood transfusions and other means have also lost their lives. thousands more have been left devastated, the survivors left to live with a combination of hiv, hepatitis b and a rage of other viruses. my constituent who i referred to, glenn wilkinson is one such individual. he had haemophilia and was infected with hepatitis c when he was just 19 during a routine tooth operation. glenn is one of thousands of people who have fallen victim to the worst treatments in the mhs. —— nhs. as i

was looking through the 15 other non—terrorist disasters, for example the hillsborough disaster, it each was a tragic event and i do not wish to detract from the magnitude of these events but the house should know that in all of those disasters led to a public inquiry. and honourable members and their constituents are entitled to ask why has the same not happened with contaminated blood ? has the same not happened with contaminated blood? had more than 2400 contaminated blood? had more than 2li00 people died over the course of one day one year, it would have been inconceivable for any government to refuse calls for a public inquiry. yet the devastation caused the contamination has been not spread over days or years but over several

decades. we must also bear in mind the profound effects the scandal has had on one community, those with bleeding disorders, many of whom we re bleeding disorders, many of whom were provided with contaminated blood sourced from profit making american firms. virtually everyone who had haemophilia at the time has been infected. honourable members will appreciate that when friends and close—knit communities are hit bya and close—knit communities are hit by a collective tragedy, its impact can be devastating. consider, for example, the tree law school for disabled children, a special school for the bulls with haemophilia, 72 people have died because of the scandal. many were forced to be silent for the suffering either for the stigma of having hiv or hepatitis b or other viruses or because they weren't even aware they had these conditions —— hepatitis b.

it does not excuse the fact that the government has sidestepped the government has sidestepped the government for too long. in france the investigations saw the imprisonment of the heads of the blood infusion service and a former health minister was found guilty of manslaughter. in japan, three executives of companies were imprisoned and an official was convicted on negligence charges. in the us, companies paid out millions in out—of—court settlements throughout the world. but nothing of this kind has happened in the uk. in 1991, in response to the threat of court cases, the government set up a payment scheme. there was no implication of liability, knowing use of the word compensation and waivers renouncing the individual‘s right had to be signed before they could obtain small sums of money. thank you forgiving way. my

constituent who does not want to be named once us to include the remit of the skipton fund in this review because she feels, as many do, the remit was wrongly drawn up and she has been denied the justice she should have had. thank you forgiving way and i also want to congratulate heron way and i also want to congratulate her on the work she has done on this issue and i welcome there is going to bea issue and i welcome there is going to be a public inquiry at last. do you agree with me that this public inquiry should address the issues as to why the uk was the last country in the western world to introduce a test for hepatitis c? and why it took 13 years... very important questions for any inquiry to deal with. i want to turn to today's announcement and the joint

westminster leader ‘s announcement of the 7th ofjuly which i think provided a blueprint for how such an inquiry should be conducted. as with hillsborough, there should be a commitment of all public disclosure of details. there should be a mechanism to ensure that all public bodies involved are compelled to give oral and written evidence. insurance it to be given that it will cover... an investigation also not just about the run—up will cover... an investigation also notjust about the run—up to the scandal but its actual aftermath and finally it have to look at allegations of criminal conduct. the minister will hopefully be able to with a timeline. you're watching bbc

news and specifically the start of an emergency debate in the house of commons with regards to contaminated blood products. this dates back to events of the 19705 and 805 when more than 2000 deaths were linked to a scandal in which people with haemophilia and other people were infected with hepatitis c and hiv. specifically from imported but products at that time. the labour mp for whole north —— hole north... hull north. she says there should be a hillsborough style inquiry into the. we will hear from the minister of health who was big for the government and outline the plans for what they are going to do with regards to that inquiry. that's why

we cut to that as we did just give you a flavour of what's on there. in a moment a summary of the business use this hour, but first the headlines on bbc news. the prime minister orders an inquiry into the dominated blood scandal in the early 805 that left more than 2000 people dead. the new york times says it has evidence that president trump's team knew the russian government was involved in the us presidential election last year hello. in the business use this afternoon... companies in the gig economy have been reacting to a report into working practices that calls for greater protections for its workers. deliveroo has criticised any move that will restrict labour flexibility. ride sharing app uber say their drivers earn well above the minimum wage. telecoms watchdogs have tightened

the rules for a new auction of mobile airwaves, imposing new restrictions on the dominance of ee and vodafone as operators prepare for the shift to 5g technology. 0fcom said it would introduce a 37% cap on the total share of usable radio spectrum any operator can control.the decision means ee, which currently has 45% of the airwaves, and vodafone, on 28%, will face restrictions on their bids for a chunk of spectrum. sales at marks and spencer's clothing and home division fell at a slower rate than before in the first three months of the year. however, like—for—like food sales dipped by 0.1%, which was worse than expected. one of the key issues facing the government as it negotiates brexit is what happens to the uk's agricultural sector. the bbc‘s danielle hewson is at the great yorkshire show, where farmers put their best animals and produce on display. she's been speaking to them about what they want from the negotiations. food and farming is the uk's biggest

manufacturing sector and this the show, the industry's biggest shop window. over 130,000 people are expected to come here over the next three days. to take a look at what is being produced. but of course at the moment very much on everybody‘s minds is the issue of brexit. get it right and it could do wonderful things for the industry, get it wrong and it might not be the farmers that are paying the price. rachel is a cattle and sheep farmer from west yorkshire. what are your main concerns? as a beef and sheep farmer, my main concerns are the fact that a lot of our industry is involved around standards. welfare standards, eyewear export commitments with our high welfare welfare standards, export commitments with our high welfare standards. what we don't want to have —— wont to happen is our imports to be flooded with lower

quality beef, lamb, beef, chicken, everything really. we want to maintain those high standards and ensure we can still compete with the re st of ensure we can still compete with the rest of the world. we need those open market. it is something we must maintain at all costs, costs. thousands of people are employed in the sector and a campaign has been launched to promote the industry '5 needs as exit negotiations get underway. how can i help? anything like that has got to help. they have joined together, a humble farmer like myself on a hillside in my own little bubble and then you have multi—million pound food, processing companies, and they understand and they see the benefits of us all working together. surely that has got to be a good thing. that has got to bea got to be a good thing. that has got to be a promotional thing for yorkshire for employment within yorkshire for employment within yorkshire and the income it brings to yorkshire. brexit negotiations

have got under way, everyone here at the show knows that a good deal could do wonderful things for this sector. the great yorkshire show i’u ns sector. the great yorkshire show runs for three days there will be a lot of people coming through despite the weather. in other business stories we've been following: promotion texts — they look a bit like this. they're refered to as premium texts. they look a little bit like that. they're being investigated by a watchdog following complaints from recipients that they have been charged fees even though many believe they never opted into the service. the two companies pro money holdings and veo involved in the campaign deny any wrongdoing. air india has stopped serving non—vegetarian meals to save money. it'll effect passengers flying economy on domestic routes. air india's business isnt the best of shape and the government there is considering ways to privatise the airline. it's a controversial move, diet is highly politicised in india where many hindus are vegetarian but muslims often eat meat. shares in pearson have risen after the company said it was selling a 22% stake in book publisher penguin random house. the sale, to its joint venture

partner bertelsmann, is expected to raise about £776 million and pearson said it would return £300 million to shareholders.after the deal, pearson will still have a 25% stake in penguin random house. let's have a look at the markets. that's it semi—, i'll be back in one hour's time with business news. thank you, charlotte. they might be places that you assume are generations apart — but for the first time in the uk, a nursery and a care home are closing the age gap. it's an idea which has already been adopted by other countries, such as the united states and japan, but from september, britain willjoin them by opening a joint site for youngsters and elderly residents. graham satchell went to find out more. singing a large care home in south london

and the sound of a nursery rhyme. young and old singing, playing, interacting together. when it officially opened in september, this will be the first nursery in the country to be cited in the grounds of a care home. children spend more of their time away from other age groups and the elderly spend more of their time away from everybody else so there is something very natural about bringing them together.l something very natural about bringing them together. a sports day to celebrate the opening and 87—year—old say is showing off her 999 87—year—old say is showing off her egg and spoon is gilles. children from the nearby nursery have been coming here on weekly trips. we sing and we dance and we play games and

it is fabulous. for most of the residents that go, they have a great time. they come alive. bringing young and old together like this already happens in america, canada, japan will stop experts say the advantages are clear particularly for the elderly in tackling isolation and loneliness. but there are challenges to, finding the right side with enough space and of course making sure both children and adults are safe. the benefits really do outweigh the disadvantages. this is the model for other care home providers and nurseries across the uk. it certainly works in the rest of the world. there is no reason why we couldn't see many more of these in the uk. back inside, 90-year-old walter is making glass is out of play—doh and passing on use of wisdom. cassell play arranged by

grown—ups is teaching them many things that they don't know they are learning. how to handle things and how to handle little situations. as an old person, i'm coming to the end of my life, it's a greatjoy an old person, i'm coming to the end of my life, it's a great joy to see new human being is growing and growing slowly into people, into humanity, into maturity. it's a wonderful thing. i'm very privileged. is this a model for the future? there is certainly hope here that it will benefit young and old. a drone has captured incredible footage of a whale playing with dolphins off the coast of western australia. you can see the large mammal splashing about with the smaller dolphins, which then go on to catch a few waves. it was filmed near esperance.
