hello — this is breakfast, with dan walker and louise minchin. british package holiday makers travel to tunisia for the first time since the 2015 attack. uk firms resume flights to the country amid reassurances that security has improved since 38 people were killed in sousse nearly three years ago. good morning, it's tuesday the 13th of february. after days of allegations of sexual misconduct at oxfam — the charities' watchdog launches a formal inquiry into the claims. questions over the helicopter crash in the grand canyon that killed three people — investigators begin interviewing survivors. today we'll be finding out how much the cost of living has been going up by when the latest inflation figures are out. i'll be looking at why

prices are rising. good morning — in sport, a 500 metre dash for glory and gold. team gb's elise christie competes in the women's short track speed skating event later — but can she claim a first british medal in pyeongchang? we're discussing the changing faces of clowns — as we mark the 250th anniversary of the first ever circus. i think things have changed a bit. matt has the weather. good morning. after yesterday's sunshine, much more cloud around today with some wind and rain and across northern england and scotland, some heavy snow as well. forecast coming up in the next 15 minutes. good morning. first, our main story. british holidaymakers are heading back to tunisia this morning, more than two years after a terror attack killed 38 people, 30 of them britons at a beach resort. thomas cook is the first british tour company to resume flights to the country.

200 passengers are due to take off from birmingham in the next 15 minutes. breakfast'sjohn maguire is there. good morning. we are in factjust seconds away from the very first flight seconds away from the very first flight black dash back to tunisia. thomas cook airlines, the flight will take off at six five a.m.. around 220 passengers on board and i spoke to many of them this morning. very interesting to hear what they had to say about returning to a country that they have missed over the last few years. with its idyllic white beaches and pristine mediterranean coastline, tunisia was a popular holiday destination for british tourists, attracting around 430 , 000 destination for british tourists, attracting around 430,000 of them each year. but then came the attack injune each year. but then came the attack in june 2015 when each year. but then came the attack injune 2015 when a gunman killed 30 britons and another eight holidaymakers on a beach near

sousse. so—called islamic state said it was behind the shooting. almost three years on from that deadly attack, british tour companies are offering package holidays to the country. this morning, 220 passengers were the first to return, flying from birmingham. i'm a bit nervous because i flying from birmingham. i'm a bit nervous because i didn't know we we re nervous because i didn't know we were the first ones and we were there the last time the terrorist attack was on so we were staying in the hotel down the road. we left the country as soon as we knew there was another flight going, we thought we'd go back out there. i'd still been travelling while it's been closed. i go to france and germany normally. no, i'm not scared at all. no trouble. beautiful place, beautiful. probably more dangerous staying in london. british officials say tunisia has made huge progress on counterterrorism and security since the attacks although the foreign office advice is that

travellers are vigilant at all times as the country remains in a state of emergency. when you think about that number, 430,000 british holidaymakers before the attacks, it makes you realise just what a big deal it is to get back there, not only for the travel country —— companies and tourists but primarily for the tourist business, the industry and tunisia. we have seen pictures of empty beaches, empty hotels. people are desperate to see visitors go back there. the government has worked extremely hard with international cooperation to try and improve security on the border with libya, to make sure that people feel safe in returning to tunisia. that flight is due to take off any second, that first flight. the second one with thomas cook will go from manchester just after eight o'clock and other regional airports will follow in the next couple of weeks and months. tui will also

begin flying again. the travel companies, and to many people, a very, very welcome return to a much loved holiday destination. the charities watchdog has launched a legal enquiry into 0xfam, amid concerns the charity failed to disclose all the details of sexual misconduct involving aid workers in haiti in 2011. john mcmanus is outside the charity commission this morning. there are still more questions being asked as well about what's been going on. oxfam now facing is very serious investigation. a statutory enquiry by the charity commission behind me into these allegations we re behind me into these allegations were involved in sexual misconduct will they were delivering aid to fit in 2011 can specifically that they sorted with prostitutes. —— haiti. this will allow the charity commission to demand evidence from

0xfa m commission to demand evidence from 0xfam to suspend trustees of the charity if necessary and freeze its it if it feels it needs to do that. it will hit spending in aid programmes around the world. the commission said that: we also heard from 0xfam's former head of global safeguarding helen evans who told channel 4 news that she had some concerns about aspects of what was going on. a survey of staff in three countries found one in ten had either witnessed or been subject to some kind of sexual assault. she said when she went to the leaders of the charity, that was not taken seriously enough in her view. she says she dealt with allegations by adults against young people working in the charity shops

in britain. she went to the charity commission about that. the commission said it took her allegations seriously. so many questions. here on breakfast, we will be talking to labour mp peter kyle about the issue facing charities at 7:10 a.m.. american government investigators have been appointed to examine the grand canyon helicopter crash which killed seven people, including three britons on sunday. tributes have been paid to british tourists, becky dobson and brothers, stuart and jason hill. the four survivors, including the pilot, are being treated in hospital in las vegas. 0ur north america correspondent, james cook reports. stuart hill, a car salesman in brighton, died celebrating his 30th birthday along with his girlfriend, becky dobson, who has 27th. stuart's brother, jason hill, a lawyer in milton keynes, also died. he was 32. his girlfriend survived. so did newlyweds john udall and

his girlfriend survived. so did newlywedsjohn udall and ellie millwood seen on the left he would becky and stuart. the helicopter, operated by two affirm papillon airways, crashed on saturday. bad weather meant it was hours before the three surviving passengers and pilot could be flown to hospital in las vegas. family and friends have arrived here along with investigators who are awaiting formal statements. the focus here is on treating the survivors, notjust to their physical injuries but also trying to help them with the trauma they have endured. but there are also questions for the helicopter company and the tour operator about why three passengers were apparently unable to escape. james cook, bbc news, las vegas. a new tool to fight online terror and jihadi activity is being unveiled by the home secretary during a trip to the us. it aims to detect content and remove it instantly. funded with more than

£500,000 of government money, the tool draws upon a vast database of material posted by the so—called islamic state. the home secretary amber rudd will meet with tech companies to discuss the software as well as other efforts to tackle extremism. the purpose of commissioning it was to show that the global internet for the counterterrorism, there are tools out there to do it we are asking for. this may be used to smaller companies. there have been over 400 b platforms that are used by terrorists so the smaller companies, this could be ideal. south africa's ruling party has made an official demand for presidentjacob zuma to step down, after a 13—hour meeting with leading figures from the african national congress. mr zuma has been the head of state since 2009, but his time in office has been overshadowed by corruption allegations. it is unclear how he will respond to the formal request to resign. bbc news has learned that the commonwealth has begun

considering who might succeed the queen as the head of the organisation. member states could choose anyone as the ceremonial leader, as the role is not hereditary. the bbc has been told 53 member states have established a high—level group of independent figures to look at the way the commonwealth is governed. it will meet for the first time today in london. portraits of barack and michelle 0bama have been unveiled at washington's national gallery, and immediately went viral online, and it wasn't all complimentary. while mr 0bama said that his was "pretty sharp", social media was soon awash with jokes about him being stuck in a hedgerow. he said the portrait of his wife captured her "hotness", although many reacted to say it looks nothing like her. it's an honour that the gallery gives to past presidents, but let's just say that these were in stark contrast to the more

traditional presidential portrait. they are, aren't they? its time they we re they are, aren't they? its time they were brought up—to—date? they are, aren't they? its time they were brought up-to-date? it's always interesting seeing portraits because when you know someone really well, it's always interesting seeing a portrait of them. you don't necessarily agree with the artist. is that the official unveiling? 0h, it's so amazing! it's never really good getting a port had done. it's a bit like you get them done. the beachfront and the caricatures. after the beach, you will would have got it cheaper as well. were you starting? in pyeongchang, again. we are still glued to our screens. we

have a brit back. elise chrstie should be starting in the speed dating after ten o'clock. it is an exciting event. she will be wanting to recover from the mistakes made four years ago in sochi. a long journey to get back where she is. we will be talking about that later on. she's among the favourites in the 500m. the first of three distances where she's going for a medal in these games. christie will need to win two races this morning to make the final, which is around noon. 0vernight, the biggest winner was kylie cambridge, in the women's half pipe. that's despite claiming on twitter that she was both hungry and

angry on twitter. the pressure is relieved a little for antonio conte. after back to back losses, his chelsea side beat west brom to move back into the premier league's top four. and england have won the toss and decided to have a bowl in their match with new zealand. joss butler leads the side with the captain injured and out. they started at six o'clock this morning in wellington, no wickets just yet. i've been watching a lot of the pipe and the snowboarders. they say frontside, i know what that means. backside, i do. frontside, i know what that means. backside, ido. it's frontside, i know what that means. backside, i do. it's the front of the back of the board. what about nine or12? i will leave the back of the board. what about nine or 12? i will leave that with you. there are some fantastic terms as well. beef carpaccio, that is one. there is also the mctwist. rusty trombone? all i know is i can't do any of them. it's related

to the amount of rotation.|j to the amount of rotation. i think maybe be at his height. i am probably entirely wrong. he might know the answer to that, matt. maybe it's to do with the position you point the board at, nine o'clock, 12 o'clock, who knows. let's talk weather, after the glorious start yesterday, a different day today and a few problems if you're travelling. a mixture of things, wind and rain in the south, gale force winds for some and snow and ice could be a feature especially in scotland and northern england. we saw some overnight in northern ireland. 0n the radar, it has been rain, blue is the rain, white is the snow. 0n the hills of scotla nd white is the snow. 0n the hills of scotland it has been extensive, lower levels at times, on the hills of northern england and wales. if

you're travelling across the age nine, a 82, m8 and m74, you could see heavy snow and on the hills we could see ten to 15 centimetres —— a9, a82. snow confined to the tops of the hills. further south outbreaks pushing east over the next few hours and strong and gusty winds, the risk of coastal flooding in southern coastal counties. the strongest winds by the end of the morning will be in the south—east corner. notice the rain, snow and sleet will gradually ease away for many areas and getting better in the west. a lot more sunshine in the afternoon and still outbreaks of rainfor afternoon and still outbreaks of rain for eastern parts and a chilly day by and large, especially when you factor in the wind. the evening rush—hour will be better than the morning with dry weather around and temperatures dropping in through the night with clear skies. of course, with wet ground in eastern areas, a risk of ice into tomorrow morning. in the west the wind will pick up

and by the end of the night more rain spreads back into northern ireland, which will turn to snow. almost a repeat performance, this weather system pushing in with strong winds but tomorrow the difference, a little slice of yellow, slightly milder air pushing in through the day. the snow turning back to rain a bit quicker and the snow in northern england and scotla nd snow in northern england and scotland tomorrow will be mainly on the hills, a few spots to lower levels. 0utbreaks the hills, a few spots to lower levels. 0utbrea ks of the hills, a few spots to lower levels. outbreaks of rain and severe gale force winds pushing across the country from west to east and only northern ireland will brighten up to the end of the day. cardiff and plymouth up to around 10 degrees. milderairto plymouth up to around 10 degrees. milder air to finish wednesday and ta ke milder air to finish wednesday and take us into wednesday night. cooler air pushing back into take us into thursday. a touch of frost around but fairly breezy. thursday, after today and tomorrow, a much sunnier day with just a few snow flurries in parts of scotland, northern ireland and northern england. more through the morning. back to you both.

happy pancake day by the way, everybody! i will show you a perfect recipe for a new style pancake later on. it is a japanese pancake. we will talk about pancakes. this is the mail, lots of different kinds, this is my kind of pancake, have a look at that! stacked with a well—known chocolate spread i would imagine. are you sweet or savoury? i am sweet. i like to finish with a bit of ice cream with chocolate spread on it. that is the big pancake finish. eye and traditional, more like lemon and sugar. don't you like variety in your life —— i am traditional. i don't mean generally! the front page of the mail. carrying on with their lead story yesterday about 0xfam and they're talking about 0xfam and they're talking about the scandal widening dramatically, different claims coming up about the charity. these

are pictures of the people who were killed in that helicopter crash. they were apparently on a birthday adventure and so much in the papers about what happened and the fact that some people managed to escape as well from that helicopter crash, which sings amazing. the front page of the guardian, we had amy fuller live yesterday, this is a picture of her and the dangerous conditions at the games ash which seems amazing. the wind was so strong she was struggling to control her snowboard. —— which seems amazing. the half pipe today, great pictures from that, lee's christie goes initial track speed skating later. the main story on the guardian, 0xfam. —— lee's christie. they have the picture of a survivor running clear from the wreckage in the grand canyon. this is an interesting story in the papers, how fast you should eat your food and even if you eat

healthy food, if you eat too fast, that could affect your weight. slowdown because your stomach doesn't know it is full until 20 minutes after it is. do you have to do more chewing? i don't know but slowdown. 20 minutes? imagine that. iama bit of slowdown. 20 minutes? imagine that. iamabitofa slowdown. 20 minutes? imagine that. i am a bit of a wolfer! totally! an amazing picture on the front page of the metro. this woman walking away from the helicopter crash in the grand canyon and the daily mirror has a story about michael markle, secret visit to comfort grenfell victims alone to comfort victims. —— meghan markle. do you want to go first on business? a story based on a conference in california where the chief marketing officerfor unilever was california where the chief marketing officer for unilever was there and he made comments about facebook and

google. unilever is a company, you will know a lot of the brands, they own things like dove, magnum and persil. they have said they will remove their ads from facebook and google if they don't get rid of content they say creates divisions in society and promotes anger and hate. this is a conference where he was talking. unilever is a huge company. this is a big company. the likes of facebook and google would lose a lot of money if they pulled their advertising so they are saying do something about all the madness thatis do something about all the madness that is online at the moment. holly? we are alla that is online at the moment. holly? we are all a fan of a nice suit, it's amazing what a good suit can do and thinking back to the olympics... dan knows all about a nice suit. does he? back off! the skeleton team in pyeongchang, the technology involved and the suits that they were, apparently that will give them

the edge. the suits that have been created for team gb's skeleton team apparently will take a second off theirtime. apparently will take a second off their time. they have been coming through in the practice runs over the past few days, people have been giving them looks and comments because bedtimes have been quicker than previously. is it extra streamlining? it's about weight dynamics. very similar to the suits worn by the team gb cyclists —— their times. worn by the team gb cyclists —— theirtimes. fascinating. worn by the team gb cyclists —— their times. fascinating. one second can make the difference. lizzy yarnold and laura denes will be competing later on this week. it's laura dees who got the fastest time so laura dees who got the fastest time so far so one to look out for.“ you're going to wear one of those suits them you can't eat one of these, japanese pancakes, it is all about your wobble rather than your flip. there is a recipe on the bbc food website. it is normal pancake

batter but you whipped the egg whites to get more height. if you shake your stack it should wobble when you go japanese. shake your stack it should wobble when you gojapanese. —— you whip. are you going to try that tonight?|j don't are you going to try that tonight?” don't know, but i like this. you can go all masterchef on us. what is it on the top? it could be wall maps. that's crucial for me, it's not about the pancakes but the topping is. i think it is a knob of butter. —— walmarts. farting hell he ups and downs of life like a failed relationship, the death of a loved one, or being a victim of crime can all affect how we feel about our lives and our mental health. now an online experiment run in conjunction with the bbc is seeing if it's possible to predict how you would cope with those big life events. here's our health correspondent, dominic hughes. working with friends, doing something useful,

all on a sunny winter's day. jane found the stress of herjob as a primary school teacher overwhelming. now working as a volunteer to restore a local park she's found the perfect antidote. sometimes i might not have had a great morning, but i might not have told anyone. but for just them being themselves. they might have made me smile or laugh. and then again i'm back on the right track and i'm feeling positive. it's a mixture of being outside, doing something great for nature, and also the people and the social side of it as well. volunteering is the sort of activity that ticks lots of boxes when it comes to boosting our mental well—being, it's an outdoor activity, and on a glorious day like today what could be better than that? it's physical, social, and for those researching what makes us happy, this is the sort of thing that they say can really help. untangling the different factors, positive and negative, that make up our sense of well—being or happiness could help prevent mental health problems from developing.

we are trying to learn more about what it's like to have depressive thinking styles... that is the aim of the online survey being launched today, in particular to explore the links between how we deal with life's ups and downs and our mental health. being involved in a crime or losing ourjob, failing an exam, how that would impact on whether or not we get anxious or depressed. and i'm interested in that both because i think that we might be able to explain a bit more about why people become anxious and depressed, but also because we can do something about it. artist raul gutierrez knows exactly how dwelling on past experiences affected the man he is today. the bullying he experienced as a child led to anxiety and panic attacks as an adult. i didn't have the courage to say to people i'm struggling. with the help of his therapist he changed the way he thought with dramatic results. one key thing was think about a good

thing before going to sleep. and that changed everything. unlocking the secrets of happiness and how they relate to good mental health could be key in understanding how to keep us all happy and to identify those at risk and in need of better help. dominic hughes, bbc news. joining us now is professor peter kinderman, a psychologist from liverpool university who is working on the study. good morning. good morning. we will have a go later. lots of information in what we have just seen but what are you hoping this information will give you? if we collect data on and off people then we should be able to work out some of the pathways from the experiences we have in our lives, the things that happen to us, the circumstances in which we live leading to on the one hand

well—being, happiness, feeling miserable, and on the other hand specific mental health problems, anxiety and depression and so forth and trying to work out the things that happened to us and the way we respond to them can affect our mental state. you're thinking that it may be in some ways predictable? that's the difference this year. this is in collaboration with someone at the university of manchester and the tomorrow's world tea m manchester and the tomorrow's world team and we want to work with the bbc, because we have worked with them before, we collect data on large number of people. four years ago we were working on this with just a survey and we couldn't predict people's mood into the future so this time when people take part they will get a reminder to come back six weeks later and we will be able to see whether we can predict from time one people's mental health at time two and that will be a more powerful scientific experiment. surely if, say, for

example, there is a loss in the family, your happiness is going to be affected, is there no way round that? everybody gets affected by negative things but some more than others. back in 2013 we found a combination of negative light offence and particularly ruminating about them seemed to be particularly bad for people in the case of developing anxiety and depression, possibly because you stay up and it affects your sleep, you're co nsta ntly affects your sleep, you're constantly thinking about the things that make you anxious but on the other hand people experiencing those negative events and mentally problems of them and move on were much less affected by... even though they had those bad events. not only events but how we think about them is important. very interesting, thank you so much. you will be back later at 7:20am for people's questions. the survey takes about 20 minutes. for more information you

can log onto: what you need is people tojoin in? lots of people to join in and come back six weeks later. i will do it. you're in, signed up, love it! time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. we will see you with the national headlines at 6:30am. good morning from bbc london news. city airport has reopened this morning after severe disruption yesterday due to the discovery of an unexploded world war two bomb. the 500 kilograms explosive was found at george v doctor on sunday night during planned works. the airport was closed throughout the morning and all flights were cancelled, affecting 16,000 passengers. the device has now been moved down river and will be detonated in a controlled explosion later this morning. the home office has been criticised

for making more than £800 million from nationality services over the past six years. young people who have citizenship rights have to pay up to £1,000 to formally register as citizens. if they don't they could face immigration action if their status is not resolved. the home office says the fees fund the wider immigration system. but campaigners claim they are a scandal. we've seen many many children who are unable to register their entitlement to the right to citizenship because of the fee and that's been the only obstacle. those children are left in limbo and some are at risk of being moved to a country they've never been. ajudge will decide today whether to lift a uk arrest warrant against wikileaks founderjulian assange. he's been living inside the ecuadorian embassy since 2012, when he was charged with failing to answer bail. last week a court ruled the warrant to arrest assange is still valid, even thought the investigation by the swedish authorities has now been dropped. his lawyers are arguing prosecuting him is not in the public interest. let's have a look at the travel situation now. 0n the tube, the district line

is part suspended with no service between ealing broadway, ricmond and earl's court. there's also severe disruption at earl's court itself due to a signal failure there. in streatham, hopton road remains closed following a stabbing on sunday. as were were saying london city airport has now reopened as has the dlr and surrounding roads. two flights have been cancelled but the first departure is scheduled for 6:45am. in greenford, just off the a40, long drive is closed because of a large fire. let's have a check on the weather now. good morning. it's not quite as cold as it was this time yesterday but unfortunately it does mean that we're going to have a rather wet and windy day. now, many of us having a bright start but gradually the cloud will start to take over and the rain arriving. some heavy bursts in there as well could fall a little bit wintry with sleep in there but mostly falling as rain and the wind

will strengthen, its going to feel quite, between 3—6. raincloud will clear away east overnight tonight and under clear skies once again the temperature is going to drop, back down into negative figures, the minimum between 0—2. we could get some icy stretches on untreated roads and services first thing tomorrow morning, maybe a bit of frost first thing but then gradually a repeat performance, the cloud arrives and then the rain arrives and as we had through wednesday again turning rather wet and windy. a brief bit of west by before thursday, temperatures getting a bit more mild, temperatures back into double figures and we should at least get the return of a little bit of sunshine. hello — this is breakfast with louise minchin and dan walker. we'll have the headlines in just a moment and coming up on breakfast today: steph will be looking at whether the cost of your shopping is going up or down as new inflation figures come out later. also this morning, you might remember the amazing

flight of sasha dench as she followed migrating swans from russia — now she's won aviation's biggest prize, she'll be here. and celia imrie is another of the stars of finding your feet — the new british film with an a—list cast, she's here after 8.30. but now a summary of this morning's main news. british package holiday companies have started taking tourists back to tunisia this morning. it's almost three years since a gunman opened fire at a beach resort killing 38 people. 30 british holidaymakers were killed at the resort in sousse in june 2015. until last summer, the foreign office advised against travel there due to the high risk of terrorism. within the last hour, thomas cook operated the first flight from birmingham and says holidaymakers should be reassured: to look has obviously the

restrictions there. those restrictions there. those restrictions were lifted because of all the improvements have —— that have been made in tunisia and in the results themselves. —— resorts. the charity commission is launching an investigation into 0xfam following the revelation of a sex scandal involving it's aid workers in haiti in 2011. the watchdog says documents show 0xfam may not have "fully and frankly disclosed" all the available information at the time. a new tool to fight online terror and jihadi activity is being unveiled by the home secretary during a trip to the us. it aims to detect content and remove it instantly. funded with more than £500,000 of government money, the tool draws upon a vast database of material posted by the so—called islamic state. the home secretary amber rudd will meet with tech companies to discuss the software as well as other efforts to tackle extremism. around 100 firefighters

are tackling a blaze at an industrial estate in northwest london. crews were called to long drive in northolt late late last night where multiple units were on fire. residents have been advised to keep their windows closed due to thick smoke in the area. the cause of the fire is currently not known. bbc news has learned that the commonwealth has begun considering who might succeed the queen as the head of the organisation. member states could choose anyone as the ceremonial leader, as the role isn't hereditary. the bbc‘s been told 53 member states have established a high—level group of independent figures to look at the way the commonwealth is governed. it'll meet for the first time today in london. that is some of the main news stories. holly is here and we will start with a winter olympics. 0ne stories. holly is here and we will start with a winter olympics. one of the big british hopes. yes, elise

christie in a few hours' time will get her speed dating hopes under way. if you think back four years ago to sochi, it was hard to watch. she was disqualified after she was blamed for a pilot in the speed dating event. she has really struggled since then. incredible to see her back competing. through so much to get as she received a lot of abuse on line. she is one of the best chance is the britain of a gold medal. she will resume her bid which starts at around ten o'clock. she was disqualified from all three of her events in sochi but in pyeongchang, an olympic record time. she goes into the quarterfinals initially. it was quite appealing, it was harsh to stand with dashed to

start with, it's tough and it gets you into the top eight and after that, anything is a win so it's just getting the preparation in between done. the big performance overnight came on the snowboard in the half pipe final. cloete kim from the usa put in an extraordinary performance. these were her thoughts posted just before that final run, regretting a sandwich she neverfinished. it was almost 24 hours after she posted about ice cream during the qualification stage.

and as you're about to see she's not afraid to let food get in the way of her interview duties either. tested and i just tested and ijust couldn't do it anyway, it is tmi, i know. iwill tra nsfer anyway, it is tmi, i know. iwill transfer all that anger of me having an empty stomach. massive congratulations. she is eating ice cream during the interview.” congratulations. she is eating ice cream during the interview. i was asking you and dan about what all these numbers refer to in the half pipe. did i see you are right? 20% right. all acronyms for example. it goes on and on. it's all about

rotation. everyone who is ever won a half pipe medal has mentioned the word stoked. and tmi is "too much information". a husband and wife pairing led the olympic athletes from russia to their third medal of these games. it's the first overall to be won in curling. they beat norway in the bronze medal match to seal third place in the mixed doubles. the russian pair got married in june last year. canada face switzerland for gold later this morning. and the weather is nowhere near as bad as yesterday in pyeongchang but it's still having an effect on some events. this was the russian pavel trikhichev crashing out in the combined alpine skiing event. the downhill course had to start lower down the mountain because of the wind. mining it's hard to watch, i think he is ok. i should probably confirm

that. chelsea emphatically ended their losing streak in the premier league last night, beating the bottom side west brom by three goals to nil at stamford bridge. the result reduces the pressure on chelsea manager antonio conte, who had eden hazard to thank for the win. the belgian scored two of the three goals, victor moses got the other. conte's side are back into the top four. i don't have a problem to give you this impression. i think that maybe i don't want this pressure can... can wait on the shoulders of my players because my players must play with great confidence and don't feel the pressure of the situation. cricket is underway in wellington right now, with england facing new zealand. the tourists won the toss and decided the have a bowl. and early on martin guptil made it look like a bad decision from stand in captain jos buttler, as he picked apart the opening bowlers.

some big hitting here but england have made a breakthrough. colin munro trying to go big too but he was caught out. new zealand currently 60/1 wickets with eight overs played. so if you've been glued to your screens watching the winter olympics, you're not the only ones — we've been really enjoying some of your photos and videos like this one. start them early — these three have switched over it's notjust the kids — it's the pets. this cat seems to coming out the telly while watching the figure skating. we have had lots of delays during the games so far little that time on their hands, members of the swiss retail —— freestyle team have been amusing themselves with some antics. hugh upperbody strength there but i would say, do not try this at home.

at train stations, at airports. don't write anywhere. it's quite impressive. do not do it. in the years before the 2015 terror attacks, tunisia enjoyed a booming tourism industry, with around half a million brits visiting each year. butjust 28,000 made the trip last year after uk tour operators stopped flights. in the last hour they've started again, so can tunisia's tourism industry bounce back? simon calder is the independent‘s travel editor. i know you've been never quite some hours. what have some of those people on that first flight been saying. a sense of cryptic site can believe that people can go back. they started turning up at two this morning. the flight left half an

hour ago. they were basically saying, we love tunisia, we haven't been or to go there for 2.5 years and frankly, we are delighted to be back, despite the terrible tragedy on the beach in sousse injune 2015 in which 30 british holidaymakers and eight other people died. they say they are not worried by the foreign office warning, that another terrorist attack is very likely. they are delighted to be a will to return to a country which has been desperately missing british holidaymakers. you mentioned the foreign office warning about another terrorist attack. how safe is tunisia? i would head back there today very happily. another flight from manchester today and one from gatwick tomorrow. there are risks. tunisia has a long, leaky frontier with libya which is a failed state

with libya which is a failed state with lots of guns and extremism so thatis with lots of guns and extremism so that is a huge problem for authorities to manage but they persuaded the foreign office that actually, they are up to the task of looking after british holidaymakers. personally, i'd be more red about crossing the road because the road accident rates are terrible in tunisia. we are naturally very concerned that travellers about terrorism but as a risk, tiny compared to things such as accidents in water and road accidents. talking about the numbers of british tourists who used to go and what it was last year, it is a huge difference. it's all about free building a reputation, that tourists can see it as a country that is safe and if those numbers return, that is and if those numbers return, that is a huge amount of money into the tunisian economy. it's been absolutely devastating since the british pulled out. tens of

thousands of people have lost their livelihoods, entire resorts have been like ghost towns and those other conditions in which possibly extremism can flourish. it is really important that tourism is part of the solution. what the tour operators are hoping for, just three flights a week initially, stepping up flights a week initially, stepping up to about ten a week a summer. they will have a calm, enjoyable return to tunisia and things can get back to normal but very much the sense is, it is open to business, they are going to look after holidaymakers and frankly, i can't wait to go back and take my family. a ringing endorsement. we will speak to somebody who was in sousse on that day later and acted birmingham airport. what's the weather like here, it's been very chilly, matt has all the

details. you dreaming of winter sunshine somewhere else, not a great start to the day, not unlike yesterday, frosty in eastern areas but a combination of things for the morning rush—hour. strong winds, heavy rain, especially further south, snow and ice up north. 0n the radar, we have seen the rain in blue pushing in from the west and the white is where the snow has been. snow in wales and south—west england on the tops of the hills, clearing away from northern ireland but it continues to fall in higher ground in northern england, maybe lower levels at times, maybe through the morning rush hour, causing some problems on higher roots. turning clearer in the next few hours to the west of northern ireland, still further snow to come on trans—pennine further snow to come on tra ns—pennine routes further snow to come on trans—pennine routes on the welsh hills as well. outbreaks of rain in the midlands and southern england, working east and strong gusty gale force winds with a small risk of coastal flooding on the southern

coastal flooding on the southern coastal areas as we go through the next couple of hours. and improving day for most, we will see the cloud breaking up in the west, sunshine comes out. sleet and of lorries in western scotland and the far north of northern ireland later, some outbreaks to the east of england and a chilly day, 4—7 for many. —— sleet and snow flores. into the night the cloud in eastern england will gradually break up and eastern areas will see temperatures dropping the furthest tonight, the risk of frost anywhere to begin with and where you have the rain and snow today, highs to ta ke have the rain and snow today, highs to take us into tomorrow morning ahead of the next weather system working in —— ice. another windy day as the weather front works its way in. but the difference tomorrow is we will see a slightly milder set of conditions. tomorrow, cold, as the weather front hits the cold air, snow falling in the scottish hills

and the hills of northern england, not much at lower levels, turning back to rain as the south—westerly wind brings milder air. back to rain as the south—westerly wind brings milderair. fairly cloudy in the east in the afternoon, occasional rain, sunniest to finish the day in northern ireland, warmest in the south, ten possible. into thursday those outbreaks of rain work their way off, a chilly night into thursday morning with a bit of frost around and the breeze should keep most of the temperatures up but on thursday back to sunny spells bore the majority with a few snow flurries west of scotland and northern ireland in particular —— for the majority. looks chilly, thanks very much! this morning we will find out how much prices are going up. steph is here to look at the inflation figures. where are we at the moment? inflation is basically a measure of the rise in the cost of living so the rise in the cost of living so the way that is worked out is the office for national statistics

basically look at several 100 goods and services that we commonly by and they create a virtual shopping basket and they look at what happens —— purchase. we saw in december cpi, the main measure of inflation, was at 3% and what we expect forjanuary is it to be around that but we can look at things that can push it to that level. now for a long time food prices were falling but last year they started creeping up again. mainly because we import a lot of food and because of the fall in the value of the pound it's made it more expensive to buy from abroad. tobacco is another product expected to have gone up in price, mainly because of a rise in government taxes. fuel, always a big one, this. oil prices were the big story in business for a long time because they were so low, down at around $45 a barrel, but not anymore. injanuary the price of oil had got up to about $70 a barrel and that usually means higher

prices at the pumps. the other element of this is wages. very strangely placed,. -- placed. the price of oil has gone up, it has nearly doubled sincejune last year. we are likely to see inflation around 3% and well above the 2% target. very hard to concentrate when you have two giggling presenters. two children in the studio. what does it mean for interest rates? the way monetary policy works in the uk is they try to keep inflation at 2% so prices aren't going up too quickly. the way they try to control that is using interest rates and the theory behind thatisif interest rates and the theory behind that is if you put up interest rates

thenit that is if you put up interest rates then it will mean people have to pay more for things like mortgages, loa ns, more for things like mortgages, loans, which means they don't have as much spare money to spend in the shops so if they're not spending as much in the shops, demand falls and prices come down. that's the idea of monetary policy. there's an argument about whether actually works any more or not given how much prices in this country are affected by global things so we will be talking about that later. what about wages? the reason inflation is important is because for a long time wages haven't kept up with the cost of living so that's meant although people might not be earning less it has felt so because the cost of living has gone up so much. what the bank of england has said recently is wages are starting to go up a bit. i'm sure lots of people at home have saidi i'm sure lots of people at home have said i haven't seen my wages go up, they are taking an average here so we are starting to see wages going up we are starting to see wages going up but it's a long way to catch up with the cost of living rises

recently. steph, thanks to much. thanks for the basket as well, it looked like you were siphoning off some petrol. bouquet, that makes me feel so much better! —— 0k. tightrope walkers, clowns, trapeze artists, just some of the acts we love about the circus! this year marks 250 years since the first one opened in london waterloo, so our arts correspondent david sillito is at a big top for us this morning. they are already in action? good morning, through the plush red velvet curtains the spotlight is having a moment. we have the greatest showman in cinemas and the 250th anniversary and how little has changed, the big top, the 42 foot wide circus ring and fantastic #backspaceword. but of course these days not so many animals, none at all, and clowns... yeah. rather different look here. clowns have had

to move with the times. 0nce once upon 0nce upona once upon a time every circus had its own troop. the facepaint, the big shoes, they were the heart of circus heritage, but the wigs and grease paint are in decline. maybe it's the clown horror films, but on this anniversary year there is a big issue for the man hoping to be world clown president. i didn't realise there was democracy in clowning. there is quite a lot of democracy and quite a lot of politics as well. what are the issues at the moment? you've already highlighted the main question we asked, are people scared of clowns? it is the big issue. even here in the heart of clowndom, more and more clowns are giving up on looking like clowns. if you had seen me back in 1973 when i first started coming here, then you would have seen a completely different face. we don't look like proper clowns. children, over the years have got a little bit wary of clowns.

but there is a fightback against all this anti—clown prejudice. i am pc bibbledy bob, or bibbledy bob the clown, the regional director for the world clown association for europe and the whole of africa. i thank you. yes, there really is a regional clown director. you press people, you like a negative story. positivity does not sell. so unfortunately we keeping busy, we keep getting work, and you are obsessed with the fact that we might not be getting that because of silly films. i stood corrected. it seems there is still a lot of clown love out there. but clown politics? i had a chat to elsie. it is only when it gets to meetings, it can get quite heated. there are clown meetings? there's a committee... i couldn't take it seriously... so elsie won't be running for world clown president.

but someone has to. because when it comes to the future of clowning there is a lot to think about. well, i have andrea from romania. you can tell the difference, the only last vestige there is of clowning is the red nose. let's have a cat to the man in charge, philip astley. you have quite a history, don't you, how many years in charge here —— chat. don't you, how many years in charge here -- chat. it goes back almost 100 years. let's go through the questions, where your animals? wild animals occupied a small part of the circus history, it's moved on and in

the uk out of 35 circuses, more touring than ever before, probably two or three use domestic animals. we are nonanimal completely. you said there are more than ever before? absolutely, the first 15 or 20 years has seen a revival, 35 touring under big tops throughout the country. a really exciting time for british circus. a different form of circus, there's the chinese state circus and all sorts of different ones? as circus moved away from the wild animals, different companies have found different directions. some concentrated on a nationality, a period in circus, a thrill circus, but here we have gone down the route of big west end musical style circus. andrea, your clown, where is the face paint? she is the only female clown and she is here because she is very funny, that's why andrea is here, but also it's the international year of the woman so we've got a female clown. a

pleasure. there it is. celebrating 250 years of a british invention, the circus. it's been mesmerising as well. thank you very much indeed. when was the last time you went to a circus, i went last summerand it you went to a circus, i went last summer and it was brilliant.” haven't been for a while.” summer and it was brilliant.” haven't been for a while. i love a good circus! you're watching breakfast from bbc news. still to come this morning: it's just a few hours till team gb's elise christie takes to the ice in the short track. bbc commentator wilf 0'reilly took two golds in the sport back 1988, he'll tell us what to watch out for later. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. the annoying thing is they didn't count as 0lympic medals because it was a demonstration event. very annoying. good luck to her, we will talk about that later. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london news. city airport has reopened this morning after severe disruption

yesterday due to the discovery of an unexploded world war two bomb. the 500kg explosive was found at george v dock on sunday night during planned works. the airport was closed throughout the morning and all flights were cancelled, affecting 16,000 passengers. the device has now been moved down river and will be detonated in a controlled explosion later this morning. ajudge will decide today whether to lift a uk arrest warrant against wikileaks founderjulian assange. he's been living inside the ecuadorian embassy since 2012, when he was charged with failing to answer bail. last week a court ruled the warrant to arrest assange is still valid, even thought the investigation by the swedish authorities has now been dropped. his lawyers are arguing prosecuting him is not in the public interest. a mother from berkshire whose son has learning disabilities is calling on retailers to take more care when selling to vulnerable people. it's after her son mistakenly spent hundreds of pounds on a music subscription service. john carr went into whsmith to buy itunes music vouchers but unknowingly spent £400.

wh smith have apologised and have given a part refund. apple has refunded the full cost of the subscriptions. the reason why i'm fighting this is that i feel morally they're taking profit from vulnerable people's poor decision, and it's beyond their ability. they're decision, and it's beyond their ability. they‘ re not decision, and it's beyond their ability. they're not making a poor decision because they're being stupid, it's actually a disability and it's beyond their means. if you have a physical disability, they'll build giraldo in a shop, but if you don't understand what you're purchasing, tough luck, mate, because you can buy what you want. let's have a look at the travel situation now. 0n the tube, the district line is part suspended with no service between ealing broadway, ricmond and earl's court. there's also severe disruption at earl's court itself due to a signal failure there. in streatham, hopton road remains closed following a stabbing on sunday. as were were saying london city airport has now reopened, as has the dlr and surrounding roads. in greenford, just off the a40, long drive is closed because of a large fire. let's have a check on the weather

now with kate kinsella. good morning. it's not quite as cold as it was this time yesterday, but unfortunately it does mean that we're going to have a rather wet and windy day. now, many of us having a bright start but gradually the cloud will start to take over and the rain arriving. some heavy bursts in there as well, could fall a little bit wintry with sleet in there but mostly falling as rain and the wind will strengthen, its going to feel quite, between 3—6. rain clouds will clear away east overnight tonight and under clear skies once again the temperature is going to drop, back down into negative figures, the minimum between 0—2. we could get some icy stretches on untreated roads and surfaces first thing tomorrow morning, maybe a little bit of frost first thing but then gradually a repeat performance, the cloud arrives and then the rain arrives and as we had through wednesday again turning rather wet and windy. a brief bit of respite before

thursday, temperatures getting a bit more mild, temperatures back into double figures and we should at least get the return of a little bit of sunshine. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. bye for now. hello — this is breakfast with louise minchin and dan walker. we'll have the headlines in just a moment and coming up on breakfast today: steph will be looking at whether the cost of your shopping good morning it's tuesday 13th february also this morning after days of allegations of sexual misconduct at 0xfam — the charities' watchdog launches a formal inquiry into the claims.

sort of extremist material instantly has been unveiled by the government. —— software which can remove extremist material. today we'll be finding out how much the cost of living has been going up by when the latest inflation figures are out. i'll be looking at why prices are rising. good morning — in sport, a 500 metre dash for glory and gold. team gb's elise christie competes in the women's short track speed skating event later — but can she claim a first british medal in pyeongchang? matt has the weather. good morning. yesterday brought some sunshine to start the day. some rain around. if we are passing northern england and scotland, some snow for the morning commute. i will have all the details in the next 15 minutes. good morning. first, our main story. british holidaymakers are heading back to tunisia this morning, more than two years after a terror attack killed 38 people, 30 of them britons at a beach resort. thomas cook is the first british tour company to resume flights to the country.

200 passengers are due to take off from birmingham in the next 15 minutes. breakfast'sjohn maguire is there. i know you have been speaking to passengers there as well. good morning. when you look up at the departure boards, their destinations, istanbul, frankfurt and for the first time in almost three years, tunisia is back the departure boards, back as a charter flight departure boards, back as a charter flight from birmingham. the passengers were a mixture of some who got a real bargain and were keen to go to some winter sun but others who had been at the many, many yea rs, who had been at the many, many years, and were very keen to get back on this morning's flight. with its idyllic white beaches and pristine mediterranean coastline, tunisia was a popular holiday destination for british tourists, attracting around 430,000 of them each year. but then came the attack injune 2015 when a gunman killed 30 britons and another eight holidaymakers

on a beach near sousse. so—called islamic state said it was behind the shooting. almost three years on from that deadly attack, british tour companies are offering package holidays to the country. this morning, 220 passengers were the first to return, flying from birmingham. i'm a bit nervous because i didn't know we were the first ones and we were there the last time the terrorist attack was on, so we were staying in a hotel down the road. we left the country. as soon as we knew there was another flight going, we thought we'd go back out there. i've still been travelling while it's been closed. i go to france and germany, normally. no, i'm not scared at all. no trouble. beautiful place, beautiful. probably more dangerous staying in london. british officials say tunisia has made huge progress on counterterrorism and security since the attacks

although the foreign office advice is that travellers are vigilant at all times as the country remains in a state of emergency. a couple of years ago, 430,000 brits travel to tunisia in just one year. last year, and that number had gone down to around 20 4000. people were still finding their way to the country, as you've seen. people who really love going out. the place itself, the tourism industry has been absolutely decimated. aside from the 38 people killed in the attack in sousse injune three months earlier, 22 died in another attack at a very popular museum in tunisia. extras in munich —— important that not only tour operators but there is also a flight

leaving from manchester in around one hour. 0ther flights leaving from manchester in around one hour. 0therflights will take place from airports right across the uk, putting tunisia back on the tourism map. very important for them and important for the tourist companies and those people who just love to visit that part of the world. this time of course, safely. thank you very much. the charity commission is launching an investigation into 0xfam following the revelation of a sex scandal involving it's aid workers the watchdog says documents show 0xfam may not have "fully and frankly disclosed" all the available information at the time. the president has described those involved as partaking in a serious violation of human dignity. a new tool to fight online terror and jihadi activity is being unveiled by the home secretary during a trip to the us. it aims to detect content

and remove it instantly. funded with more than half a million pounds of government money, the tool draws upon a vast database of material posted by the so—called islamic state. 0ur tech reporter dave lee has more. created by an artificial intelligence company based in london, and funded with more than £500,000 of government money, the tool draws upon a vast database of material posted online by the so—called islamic state. we have two videos, one of which is legitimate news content, the other is propaganda. to my naked eye, i actually can't tell the difference between the two. fortunately down at the bottom, this is very low probability of being terrorist content, but this one of being much higher. using this technique, the software creators believe they can spot up to 94% of is content posted online with an accuracy of 99.95%. anything the software is unsure about is flagged for human review. i've had a demonstration of it, i know a lot of other people as well, and it's a very convincing

example of the fact that you can have the information you need to make sure this information is not going online in the first place. advocates of an open internet often push back against this type of software because it can often cause content being blocked when it shouldn't be, false positives. yet, an estimated 400 web services were used to block propaganda in 2017, and so it is less about blocking jihadis online today and more about predicting where they might be on the internet tomorrow. american government investigators have been instructed to examine the grand canyon helicopter crash which killed seven people. british tourists becky dobson and brothers, stuart and jason hill were among those that died. the four survivors, three other britons and the pilot are currently being treated in hospital in las vegas.

stuart hill, a car salesman in brighton, died celebrating his 30th birthday along with his girlfriend, becky dobson, who was 27. stuart's brother, jason hill, a lawyer in milton keynes, also died. he was 32 years old. his girlfriend, jennifer barham, survived. so did newlywedsjohn udall and ellie milward, seen here on the left at their wedding with becky and stuart. the helicopter, a euro ec130, operated by tour firm papillon airways, crashed in the grand canyon just before sunset on saturday. bad weather meant it was nearly nine hours before the three surviving passengers and pilot could be flown to hospital in las vegas. family and friends have now arrived here along with investigators who are waiting to take formal statements. the focus here is on treating the survivors, not just for their physical injuries but also trying to help them with the trauma they have endured. but there are also questions for the helicopter company and the tour operator about why three passengers were apparently unable to escape.

james cook, bbc news, las vegas. south africa's ruling party has made an official demand for presidentjacob zuma to step down, after a 13—hour meeting with leading figures from the african national congress. mr zuma has been the head of state since 2009, but his time in office has been overshadowed by corruption allegations. it is unclear how he will respond to the formal request to resign. london city airport will reopen later today after a 500kg second world war bomb found there was safely moved. the device was discovered at the king george v dock on sunday during planned work at the east london airport. all flights were cancelled on monday as an exclusion zone was put in place, closing the airport and affecting up to 16,000 passengers and some residents who were evacuated. the bomb will be detonated at a secure location this morning. bbc news has learned that the commonwealth has begun

considering who might succeed the queen as the head of the organisation. member states could choose anyone as the ceremonial leader, as the role is not hereditary. the bbc has been told 53 member states have established a high—level group of independent figures to look at the way the commonwealth is governed. it will meet for the first time today in london. portraits of barack and michelle 0bama have been unveiled at washington's national gallery, and immediately went viral online, and it wasn't all complimentary. while mr 0bama said that his was "pretty sharp", social media was soon awash with jokes about him being stuck in a hedgerow. he said the portrait of his wife captured her "hotness", although many reacted to say it looks nothing like her. it's an honour that the gallery gives to past presidents, but let's just say that these were in stark contrast to the more

traditional presidential portrait. as we've been hearing, 0xfam is facing further scrutiny today over an alleged sex scandal involving its aid workers in haiti in 2011. the charity commission has now opened an inquiry amid concerns 0xfam might not have "fully and frankly disclosed" all information at the time. peter kyle worked as an aid worker for over a decade before becoming a labour mp in 2015. hejoins us now from brighton. and givenjoining us. let's take you back personal to your work as an aid worker. when you are doing that work, did you have concerns about some people's behaviour?” work, did you have concerns about some people's behaviour? i never saw in my time at anything that could be rumoured to be or known to be

criminal. i certainly never had a hint that this sort of thing was going on. but when i was working, i was a development worker but also an aid worker in crisis situations and when you are working in those situations, it is extremely chaotic. very, very lawless. you see an awful lot of good people who make it to the front line using their expertise ina the front line using their expertise in a profoundly good weed but you also see some people who gravitate towards these very chaotic unstable situations because unfortunately, their personalities are dysfunctional. i saw some people acting ina dysfunctional. i saw some people acting in a way i felt was really counter to the values that we in the world of foreign aid hold dear. difficult to tackle. you make the -- you make the point that there are so many who give their time and effort to do good work. are you concerned about the impact these stories have

on conifer example, people who give donations to these charities? i'm extremely concerned. this scandal is growing. what worries me is that this could consume 0xfam and could indeed spread to other charities as well. what we don't need is for an organisation like 0xfam to implode because there are many thousands of people who depend on these organisations and people have to realise the vast majority of work they do and other charities do is exemplary and its supporting people who are the most vulnerable people in the world. there will be hundreds ofaid in the world. there will be hundreds of aid workers out there who are as horrified or even more horrified than everybody else was watching this because it is their profession which is being use —— besmirched by this and they have been profoundly let down by a few individuals but also an organisation which put the needs of the organisation above

those of its beneficiaries. this is counter to the ethos that drives aid work. winnowed the charity commission has opened this statutory enquiry due to concerned it may not have disclosed all details. is this the right way forward? that are definitely needs to happen and we need to make sure the charity commission has the resources to undertake these kinds of investigations but they will undertake a disclosure and a process enquiry but there is something more thatis enquiry but there is something more that is happened here. it's been revealed in the last 14 hours, clear that senior managers in 0xfam report it potential abuse, they reported it to the chief executive and didn't get a response. they reported it directly to the trustees and didn't get a response. they went to an mp who contacted the secretary of state and did not get a response. it begs the question, what the hell do you

have to do to draw attention to this kind of thing within an organisation like 0xfam ? kind of thing within an organisation like oxfam? so we need another enquiry. sorry to interrupt, we need another enquiry you say, do charities need a different type of oversight from what they have had so far? actually the oversight that comes from having an independent board of trustees, from in—house directors and good management structures should be enough. also the charity commission, we have in the field the united nations, but the problem is a global structure of monitoring aid work hasn't kept up with how aid work has developed over the years. if you're looking in some of these countries when its humanitarian catastrophe or a conflict or war zone, it is lawless, it is very, very chaotic and unstructured. so we need to make sure that the use of perhaps military personnel who are witnessing things on the ground and

are professionals in their own right, that they can feed back into the british government what's happening and they can also monitor things. we need a very sophisticated way of monitoring what's happening on the front line and after the crisis has passed we need a really frank and public evaluation of how the aid operation happened so we can all learn from it. you said another enquiry, briefly really briefly, what specifically into? we need to find out what has gone wrong, not just technically but culturally within the aid world because this is a cultural problem. there are very senior professional people there who we re senior professional people there who were blowing the whistle on this. they were sounding alarms but nobody was listening and nobody was acting, not just within 0xfam was listening and nobody was acting, notjust within 0xfam but was listening and nobody was acting, not just within 0xfam but we was listening and nobody was acting, notjust within 0xfam but we now know outside of oxfam as well so we know outside of oxfam as well so we know something has gone wrong in the culture of perhaps these big aid agencies where they become so competitive on the ground that they become territorial and so scared i

be of losing their funding become territorial and so scared i be of losing theirfunding and damaging the relationship with their that when something bad happens they're not talking about it in an open hearted and public way, which is what we expect charities like this. we need to understand what's gone wrong culturally within charities and really act. and this involves government as well by the weight. peter kyle, good to talk to you and thanks for your opinions on bbc breakfast —— by the way. you're watching breakfast from bbc news. let's find out what's going on with the weather. grim picture behind you? it is, after the sunshine yesterday a different day for many, lots of cloud at the moment, strong winds and heavy rain, especially in the south but further north, snow and icy conditions this morning. the details might cause some problems on your morning commute. here's the area of rain in blue and where we have seen snow on the welsh hills. mainly on the tops. some snow to

lower levels in parts of scotland and we will see some in northern england. strong winds to the east of scotla nd england. strong winds to the east of scotland in the rush—hour, 15 centimetres of snow in the higher ground and maybe some on the central belt. it has cleared in northern ireland but setting in on the tops of the pennines, also the welsh hills but confined to the tops. rain in parts of the west midlands, outbreaks heavy at times spreading to eastern england and strong to gale force winds touching 50 or 60 mph fora time gale force winds touching 50 or 60 mph for a time this morning but an improving day because the sunshine will come out in many western areas this afternoon. a struggle through eastern england, cloud and rain towards the end of the afternoon and a chilly day by and large given this morning the cloud, the rain and the snow. into the night, the cloud we have in eastern counties of england disappear. clear skies, clear

weather and temperatures will drop. widespread frost developing for a time and icy conditions given what we're seeing at the moment. by the end of the night our next weather system pushes in. for tomorrow, we start with sunshine in eastern areas but this weather system will bring more wind, rain and snow and also this time you will notice this slice of yellow on my chart, milder air pushing in, which will turn the snow back to rain quicker. looks like tomorrow after a bright start in eastern areas, cloud will spread with snow on the scottish hills and tops of the pennines but for most, outbreaks of rain through the day. temperatures up to 11 potentially in the south—west later and brighter weather to finish in northern ireland. tomorrow a much cloudier day for more of the day than we will see today's. into thursday, some frost returning as the clear again but looking like a much better day. lots of sunshine for england and

wales, summed sleet and snow flurries, further snow in western scotla nd flurries, further snow in western scotland and northern ireland and temperatures still holding up in the south as we finished thursday. that's how we're looking. looks very chilly —— some sleet. a few moments ago we were talking about the 0xfam story, which is on the front page of many of the papers this morning. the daily telegraph talking about this. rape and abuse in charity shops overseas ignored. this is a ralph lauren model for new york fashion week. the front page of the guardian, windy doesn't even begin to cover it in pyeongchang yesterday, amy fuller among the competitors who crashed at the winter olympics yesterday. she talked on breakfast saying it shouldn't have been run, that competition, yesterday. that is still rumbling on. also the 0xfam story on the front page of the guardian. have a look at the front page of the times this morning, 0xfam the main

story but this is on the front page of some of the papers this morning —— times. this is from the grand ca nyon —— times. this is from the grand canyon helicopter crash, which killed three yesterday, and a survivor running clear. it is amazing footage. we have a piece of dasha from america with details in here —— from america. that's on the front page of the metro. more allegations coming out about 0xfa m more allegations coming out about 0xfam from helen evans, who worked there, talking about those a moment ago and meghan markle has visited the grenfell tower site alone to comfort victims of the fire. when it comes to pancakes, it is shrove tuesday, do you carefully planned, pa nca kes tuesday, do you carefully planned, pancakes tonight? we had them on sunday. what? i know it is two days early. do you go classic? i'm moving onto american pancakes. this is a next level up. these are japanese

pancakes, they are all the rage, there is a recipe on the bbc and one website. a lot higher than normal and there's meant to be a bit of a wobble rather than a flip and you do it by whipping up the egg whites and using a ring. you are quite judgement or about people's poached eggs. you have been making pancakes stoppila sunzu a look. people of the pancake. prepare yourself. i'm about to flip. 0ne, two, three, four, five, six... that isa two, three, four, five, six... that is a good pancake. i'm very impressed. did you make that? i was holding the phone with one hand. holly has also been making pancakes. i'm going to give you ten out of ten for that. look at the speed at the end! let's see holly's. how are we judging this? we are going to go for distance and style so if i get one of those i'm going to be happy. made a bit of a

mess. is that meant to happen? i never thought i would say this but i would prefer to eat the one that you made. this is a big moment. a special moment for me. she likes my pancakes! do send us your pictures of your pancake day pancakes as well. it's a special day, isn't it? my well. it's a special day, isn't it? my kids are very excited about pancake day already. the ups and downs of life like a failed relationship, the death of a loved one, or being a victim of crime can all affect how we feel about our lives and our mental health. now an online experiment run in conjunction with the bbc is seeing if it's possible to predict how you would cope with those big life events. here's our health correspondent, dominic hughes. working with friends, doing something useful, all on a sunny winter's day. jane found the stress of herjob as a primary school teacher overwhelming. now working as a volunteer to restore a local park she's found the perfect antidote.

sometimes i might not have had a great morning, but i might not have told anyone. but for just them being themselves. they might have made me smile or laugh. and then again i'm back on the right track and i'm feeling positive. it's a mixture of being outside, doing something great for nature, and also the people and the social side of it as well. volunteering is the sort of activity that ticks lots of boxes when it comes to boosting our mental well—being. it's an outdoor activity, and on a glorious day like today what could be better than that? it's physical, social, and for those researching what makes us happy, this is the sort of thing that they say can really help. untangling the different factors, positive and negative, that make up our sense of well—being or happiness could help prevent mental health problems from developing. we are trying to learn more

about what it's like to have depressive thinking styles... that's the aim of the online survey being launched today, in particular to explore the links between how we deal with life's ups and downs and our mental health. being involved in a crime or losing ourjob, failing an exam, how that would impact on whether or not we get anxious or depressed. and i'm interested in that both because i think that we might be able to explain a bit more about why people become anxious and depressed, but also because we can do something about it. artist raul gutierrez loya knows exactly how dwelling on past experiences affected the man he is today. the bullying he experienced as a child led to anxiety and panic attacks as an adult. i didn't have the courage to say to people i'm struggling. with the help of his therapist he changed the way he thought with dramatic results. one key thing was think about a good thing before going to sleep, and that changed everything. unlocking the secrets of happiness

and how they relate to good mental health could be key in understanding how to keep us all happy and to identify those at risk and in need of better help. dominic hughes, bbc news. joining us now is professor peter kingdom, a psychologist from liverpool university. we saw you in that report and what you're trying to find out is if you can predict how people will react and help them? —— peter kingdom and. how people will react and help them? -- peter kingdom and. the study is different because we're asking people to fill in surveys about their mental health and well—being on to time points, we see how the data now will predict how people will feel in six weeks, which is a very powerful scientific way to look at it. —— two time points. the information should help psychologists, therapists, nurses,

psychiatrists, members of the public help people rebuild when things go wrong. you say there are external things that can make a difference and physical activity is one of those? the top three for well-being are something meaningful and purposeful in your life, not necessarily a job but doing things that give your life meaning and purpose. having people around you, being connected, and physically active. those are three things that tend to make people happier rather than unhappy. you really need help with this, don't you? on the first we talk about happiness often on the programme and i'm sure they're wanting to be involved. —— on brea kfast. wanting to be involved. —— on breakfast. we want to look at the relationship between different variables. everything people have ever mentioned a fix our moods. what's important for scientists is to look at the relationship between lots and lots of variables,

u nfortu nately you lots and lots of variables, unfortunately you need lots of people to fill in questionnaires to get the precision in the science. you're hoping for thousands of people to watch this and take part and you'll get so much data you can analyse? we would like over 100,000 to ta ke analyse? we would like over 100,000 to take part and then we would have some reasonable data on those people who have experienced a few life events and how happy they are afterwards. this is probably an unfair question, can people be happy people? it's part of what we're looking at, the way in which you think is naturally part of your personality and that gives you a sense of resilience. i personally think it's not really a question of how we're born, i think we learn how we respond to events, especially in childhood, the way we are treated as children and brought up by parents. it teaches us about the way we react which might make us more or less resilient when bad things happen. it's a bit what therapists do as well. resilience is a keyword as well. resilience is a keyword as well. thanks very much. for more details on the survey and

how to take part... you can log on to: you look up the website and it will ta ke you look up the website and it will take about 15 to 20 minutes. you are quite happy? i am generally glass half full. what about you? talking about physical activity, you're a lwa ys about physical activity, you're always happier after you have done something physical. you're right, it lasts about a week, that level of com plete lasts about a week, that level of complete euphoria. there you go. however it has gone, it doesn't matter. the reality behind the science! time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london news. a man has died after a shooting in cockfosters in north london and police were called at quarter to midnight last night to mount parade.

they found a man believed to be in his 40s with gunshot wounds, he died at the scene. city airport has reopened this morning after severe disruption yesterday due to the discovery of an unexploded world war two bomb. the 500kg explosive was found at george v dock on sunday night during planned works. the airport was closed throughout the morning and all flights were cancelled, affecting 16,000 passengers. the device has now been moved down river and will be detonated in a controlled explosion later this morning. a mother from berkshire whose son has learning disabilities is calling on retailers to take more care when selling to vulnerable people. it's after her son mistakenly spent hundreds of pounds on a music subscription service. john carr went into whsmith to buy itunes music vouchers but unknowingly spent £400. wh smith have apologised and have given a part refund. apple has refunded the full cost of the subscriptions. the reason why i'm fighting this is that i feel morally they're taking profit from vulnerable people's poor decision, and it's beyond their ability. they're not making a poor decision

because they're being stupid, it's actually a disability and it's beyond their means. if you have a physical disability, they'll build you a ramp in a shop, but if you don't understand what you're purchasing, tough luck, mate, because you can buy what you want. let's have a look at the travel situation now. 0n the tube, the district line is part suspended with no service between south kensington, ealing broadway and earl's court, where there's also a signal failure and that's causing severe delays on the rest of the line. minor delays on the circle line due to that same problem. 0n the roads and this is the view in greenford, just off the a40, long drive is closed because of a large fire there. the a40 is busier than usual into town from the target roundabout as a result. city airport has reopened, as has the dlr and surrounding roads. let's have a check on the weather

now with kate kinsella. good morning. it's not quite as cold as it was this time yesterday, but unfortunately it does mean that we're going to have a rather wet and windy day. now, many of us having a bright start but gradually the cloud will start to take over and the rain arriving. some heavy bursts in there as well, could fall a little bit wintry with sleet in there but mostly falling as rain and the wind will strengthen, its going to feel quite, between 3—6 the maximum. that rain cloud will clear away east overnight tonight and under clear skies once again the temperature is going to drop, back down into negative figures, the minimum between 0—2. we could get some icy stretches on untreated roads and surfaces first thing tomorrow morning, maybe a little bit of frost first thing but then gradually a repeat performance, the cloud arrives and then the rain arrives and as we head through wednesday again turning rather wet and windy. a brief bit of respite before thursday, temperatures getting a bit more mild, temperatures back into double figures and we should at least get the return of a little bit of sunshine. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour.

bye for now. hello, this is breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. here's a summary of this morning's main stories from bbc news. british package holiday companies have started taking tourists back to tunisia this morning. it's almost three years since a gunman opened fire at a beach resort killing 38 people. 30 british holidaymakers were killed at the resort in sousse in june 2015. until last summer, the foreign office advised against travel there due to the high risk of terrorism. within the last hour, thomas cook operated the first flight from birmingham and says holidaymakers should be reassured: we have to look at all of the work that has been done. 0bviously that has been done. obviously we did have restrictions they are put in place by the foreign office and those restrictions were lifted because of all the improvements that have been made on safety and

security in tunisia and in the resorts themselves. the charity commission is launching an investigation into 0xfam following the revelation of a sex scandal involving it's aid workers in haiti in 2011. the watchdog says documents show 0xfam may not have "fully and frankly disclosed" all the available information at the time. we need to find out what has gone wrong, not just we need to find out what has gone wrong, notjust technically but culturally within the aid world because this is a cultural problem. there are people there, very senior professional people, who are blowing the whistle on this. there were sounding alarms that nobody was listening and nobody was acting, not just within 0xfam but outside of 0xfa m just within 0xfam but outside of 0xfam as well. a new tool to fight online terror and jihadi activity is being unveiled by the home secretary during a trip to the us. it aims to detect content

and remove it instantly. funded with more than half a million pounds of government money, the tool draws upon a vast database of material posted by the so—called islamic state. amber rudd will meet with tech companies to help tackle extremists. south africa's ruling party has made an official demand for presidentjacob zuma to step down, after a 13—hour meeting with leading figures from the african national congress. mr zuma has been the head of state since 2009, but his time in office has been overshadowed by corruption allegations. it is unclear how he will respond to the formal request to resign. bbc news has learned that the commonwealth has begun considering who might succeed the queen as the head of the organisation. member states could choose anyone as the ceremonial leader, as the role is not hereditary. the bbc has been told 53 member states have established a high—level group of independent figures to look at the way the commonwealth is governed. it will meet for the first time today in london. coming up on the programme, lots to

talk about and particularly, we are going to shop. much more action coming up this morning. another british hopeful on the way. that is elise christie, isn't it? we were up watching some half pipe action. sean wight, he is the best in the sport but a bit of pressure from the australian in second place. his run was as near to perfection as it could be. i don't even know what it is, but it looks break —— it looks great. i would like to fly like that. you're right, it's like they are superheroes. elise chrstie — one of britain's best chances of a gold medal — will resume her bid in short track speed skating's 500 metres at about 10 o'clock. it's quite a comeback. she was

stripped of a silver medal because she was blamed for a pileup. it was very difficult for her. she received a lot of abuse on social media, believe it or not. it's such a difficult event. quite straightforward in terms of the rules. this morning, the 500m which is shorter than what is strength would normally be that in some ways, it's more difficult. exciting to see how she gets on. she won her heat in what was an olympic record time and she goes into the quarterfinals with the semis and finals soon after and for those of you who are not too sure how this crazy sport works, we have broken it down to you. it was quite a harsh round to start

with, it's going to be tough. you get in the class and it gets in the top eight. after that, anything is a win so it's just getting the preparation in between done. team gb is going for gold later today. the current world champion and world record holder for over 500 metres, elise christie, will take to the ice for the short track speed skating finals. let's speak to former gb short track speed skater, wilf 0'reilly who joins us live from pyeongchang. good morning, thank you forjoining us. thank you very much. elise christie, she is going to be hoping to put what happened to her in sochi behind her. that will be difficult. she needs to deliver in the 500m. do you think she is ready?” she needs to deliver in the 500m. do you think she is ready? i certainly do, iwas you think she is ready? i certainly do, i was impressed with her performance in the saturday evening

heats. i said that is going to be a major game—changer physically and mentally. she had an injury back early on in the season. she hadn't had a period of time where she had no racing whatsoever and saturday was really hitting the nail on the head. she performed and produced. she will have three races in the space of two hours. hopefully a possible final shortly after that. just how difficult and training is that? physically, or the championships she has ever competed in. she is butjust mention the

pressure. you must come home with a medal. she has matured immensely. i was watching her. the important thing to release is to enjoy these 0lympic thing to release is to enjoy these olympic games. the olympic games we re olympic games. the olympic games were such a disaster. she needs to be aware that she is at the olympic games. we are seeing that she has worked on it. that is something isn't it? absolutely, the 500m, she isn't it? absolutely, the 500m, she is the world record holder. she goes on the fourth quarterfinal. ten minutes longer recovery going into the semifinals. she has to qualify.

iam fairly the semifinals. she has to qualify. i am fairly confident she will do that. she will go into the semi—final and have the fastest time again, draw the mla which is the shortest distance and then we are into the final and once you're in the final, i firmly believe that elise christie will come away this evening with a medal. the big performance came on the snowboard. this routine scored her 98 out of 100. on the snow, kim has also been grabbing the attention on social media, tweeting about food of course. these were the thoughts,

regretting a sandwich she never finished. it is almost 24 hours after she been posting about ice cream. as you are about to see, she is not afraid to let food get in the way of the interview duties. you know, iwas you know, i was getting really ‘hangry‘ and not really stoked because my stomach was rumbling and it was bad, i thought i should hold it was bad, i thought i should hold it because i'm going to get drug tested but i just it because i'm going to get drug tested but ijust couldn't do it. anyway, it is tni, i know, but! transferred all that angered from me having an empty —— an empty stomach into the third round and it worked. i love the fact that she is still eating in ice cream. i love the fact that you're talking to wilf

o'reilly, he is one of my sporting heroes. he should be a huge 0lympic name in this country. in the lillehammer, he lost his two events, he was forced to race with a damage late. i remember crying my eyes out. he wasn't going to win that he was forced to go back on the ice. newitt inspired to take up some speed dating? just a spectator sport. the austrian, marcel hirscher, is now under the big champion. he is one of

most dominant alpine skiers in history but this, believe it or not, is the first time he has managed to win gold at an olympics. this is just the first of four medal attempts. the olympic athletes from russia have won their third medal of these games, and the first overall to be won in curling. they beat norway in the bronze medal match to seal third place in the mixed doubles. canada face switzerland for gold later this morning. cricket is underway in wellington right now, with england facing new zealand in a t20 international. the tourists won the toss and decided to have a bowl. and early on it looked like they'd got it wrong. martin guptil picking apart the opening bowlers with some big boundaries but england have made a breakthrough. colin munro trying to go big too but he was caught out. all credit to chris jordan that

brilliant catch. new zealand continued very well indeed. kane williamson made 72 as they posted an impressive total of 196. chelsea emphatically ended their losing streak in the premier league last night, beating the bottom side west brom by three goals to nil at stamford bridge. the result reduces the pressure on chelsea manager antonio conte, who had eden hazard to thank for the win. the belgian scored two of the three goals, victor moses got the other. conte's side are back into the top four. so if you've been glued to your screens watching the winter olympics, you're not the only ones — we've been really enjoying some of your photos and videos like this one. start them early — these three have switched over from cbeebies. they love wilf o'reilly. everybody

does. it's notjust the kids — it's the pets. and we've had lots of delays during the games so far — with all that time to kill members of the swiss freestyle team have been amusing themselves with some escalator antics. pure upper body strength here. don't try this at home or anywhere. 0r or in the airport or in the train station. anywhere its mac don't do it, just marvel at the professionals —— anywhere! thanks very much, holly. what time is elise christie? 10:02am. quarter—final? is elise christie? 10:02am. quarter-final? yes. if she makes the final? midday. we will be glued to our screens against big let's catch up our screens against big let's catch up on the weather with matt. —— we will be glued to our screens again. the picture behind me suggests

there's something more wintry around because this morning we have some snow especially in parts of scotland and northern england, elsewhere a combination of wind and rain makes foran combination of wind and rain makes for an unpleasant rush—hour for some so some travel disruption. check your bbc local radio if you're heading out. blue is where the rain fell over the last few hours, white where the snow is. the snow we have seenin where the snow is. the snow we have seen in the likes of the moors and the welsh hills have been on the tops of the hills, mainly rain. 0ver the next hour or the worst of the conditions getting out of the way in scotland, heavy snow in higher ground, ten to 15 centimetres and that will impact some of the roots, the same on the trans—pennine routes but in wales the snow is mainly on the tops of the hills. outbreaks of rain spreading into the likes of the midlands, birmingham and manchester over the next few hours. gale force wind is in places will lift some

high seas across the south and south—east —— gale force winds. and improving day, sunshine out in northern ireland will develop in western areas through the day —— an improving day. cloudy and fairly rainy. temperature is not far off yesterday's values but not as sunny, feeling that bit cooler —— temperatures. the cloud in eastern areas will break up and the temperatures will drop under this slot of clear area, a widespread frost developing and giving the rain, sleet and snow today we will seaice rain, sleet and snow today we will sea ice around but into the morning, the wind picking up ahead of our next weather system. a deep area of low pressure to the south of iceland pushing our way into cold air but in amongst this one we have a slice of milderair amongst this one we have a slice of milder air pushing into the south and south—west late on wednesday. that helps to turn what falls from the sky mainly to rain but don't be alarmed by the sight of snow on the chance, mainly in higher ground in

northern england and scotland, rain in lower levels and rain for much of england and wales on and off, heaviest mid—morning to early afternoon. northern ireland brightens up later, ten is the high here and 11 in plymouth, balmy compared to the last few days. milderair in the compared to the last few days. milder air in the south through the night and into thursday morning, outbreaks of rain clearing. clearer skies on thursday, some sunshine around, the best in the south and east. western scotland and northern ireland still with further snow at times and temperatures here still in mid single figures. getting a bit colder over the next few days but after yesterday's sunshine, it may be shrove tuesday but the weather could be that. he has been saving that, hasn't he? —— could be batter. he has been saving that, hasn't he? -- could be batter. he has been waiting for that one! very good! later we will find out how much prices are going up, your lemon and

your flour and your eggs because prices are going up, your lemon and yourflour and your eggs because its inflation figures? food is one of the areas prices have been going up. let me give you an explanation. good morning. inflation is a measure of how much the cost of living is going up by. to work it out the office for national statistics create a virtual shopping basket, which has 700 of the most common good and services we buy in it. the latest figure for inflation was 3% in december. this morning we'll get the january figure. so what are we expecting? now for a long time food prices were falling but last year they started creeping up again. mainly because we import a lot of food and because of the fall in the value of the pound it's made it more expensive to buy from abroad. tobacco is another product expected to have gone up in price, mainly because of a rise in government taxes. fuel, always a big one, this. oil prices were the big story in business for a long time

because they were so low, down at around $45 a barrel, but not anymore. that means inflation is going to be above the bank of england 2% target, which is worrying for them and this is what the governor had to the prospect of a greater degree of excess demand and the expectation inflation would remain above target over the forecast period have further diminished the trade—off that the mpc is required to balance. the committee judges that where the economy to evolve broadly in line with its february inflation report objections, projections, monetary policy would need to be tightened somewhat earlier and to a greater extent over the forecast period than it anticipated at the time of the november report in order to return inflation sustainably to target.”

am joined by the economist vicky pryce to make sense of that. what was he saying? he was saying that interest rates might rise higher than forecasts, we thought they might not rise because all the economists were expecting a slowdown but things are picking up. world expansion is happening and that means everyone is doing well at the moment so the uk is benefiting from that so there's more pressure on the economy, we have practically full employment so he is saying if the trends continue we might need to raise interest rates this year earlier than everyone expected. explain the theory behind putting up interest rates and how that's meant to control inflation. the main way you do that is by discouraging people from borrowing, you may citrus rates can you make it harder for firms citrus rates can you make it harder forfirms and citrus rates can you make it harder for firms and individuals to do so —— you make interest rates and you

make it. there are factors outside our control, such as the oil price increase, feeding through to pump prices, or it comes from actions we engineer, like raising taxes, weather on tobacco or the cost of travelling, fares are going up as well. —— weather. none of these have anything much to do with internal pressures on the economy. everything so far has come from the falling pound and other factors that were not necessarily influenced by raising interest rates so one wonders why one needs to do that. the real worry is consumers are going to find another hit to them, already prices going up and they can't spend the amount they would like to in shops, disposable income falling, you raise interest rates as well and you increase the suffering. the bank of england governor said we are starting to see wages go up

again but for lots of people out there they feel in real terms they haven't got as much money as they had. absolutely because inflation is higher than wage increases but interestingly with more or less full employment, as we have right now in the uk, there are areas where you're beginning to see skill shortages, wages going up. look at the construction sector, which has been booming on the housebuilding side, and loads of other areas too and the worry is, this is good for some people getting increases, but for firms, looking at brexit and things in terms of migration trends, it might be harder to fill the posts that people want to do for expansion so what will happen to the economy? are they going to be able to afford to pay higher wages for the workers given the margins in some areas are very tight, as we've seen in the retail sector recently. vicky, lovely to have you here to talk about this. thank you. thank you both very much indeed. tightrope walkers, clowns, trapeze artists, just some of the acts we love about the circus!

this year marks 250 years since the first one opened in london waterloo, so our arts correspondent david sillito is at a big top for us this morning. that is not you, is it? good morning. i've been practising, you can tell, can't you? sadly that's not me, we have douglas, acrobats, a big top, the whole thing at 8:30am at gandeys vas we have acrobats. same size of circus and we have the big top —— we have acrobats. traditions but some have changed. philip is in charge. where are youranimals? changed. philip is in charge. where are your animals? gandeys along with many circuses in the uk don't use them, circus has moved on and diversifying, we have gone down the route of a west end spectacular. we

have modernised it and write the music for the show. are there any left? there are 35 circuses touring, it's probably the most terrific time in circus history in the country. more than ever? yes, and we're very proud to be part the renaissance of circus. one final question, andrea has no face paint, what's that about? andrea is naturally funny, she doesn't need a lot of face paint. you can teach an acrobat, you can't teach a clown, they are born funny. philip, thanks very much. that's it, 250 years of gandeys but before we come back later, the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london news. a man has died after a shooting in cockfosters in north london. police were called at 11:45pm last night to mount parade. they found a man believed to be in his 40s with gunshot wounds, he died at the scene.

city airport has reopened this morning after severe disruption yesterday due to the discovery of an unexploded world war two bomb. the 500kg explosive was found at george v dock on sunday night during planned works. the airport was closed throughout the morning and all flights were cancelled, affecting 16,000 passengers. the device has now been moved down river and will be detonated in a controlled explosion later this morning. a mother from berkshire whose son has learning disabilities is calling on retailers to take more care when selling to vulnerable people. it's after her son mistakenly spent £400 on a music subscription service after going into whsmith. the company have apologised and have given a part refund. apple have refunded the full cost of the subscriptions. the reason why i'm fighting this is that i feel morally they're taking profit from vulnerable people's poor decision, and it's beyond their ability. they're not making a poor decision because they're being stupid, it's actually a disability and it's beyond their means.

if you have a physical disability, they'll build you a ramp in a shop, but if you don't understand what you're purchasing, tough luck, mate, because you can buy what you want. let's have a look at the travel situation now. 0n the tube, severe delays on the district line due to a signal failure at earl's court. there are also minor delays on the circle line clockwise only due to that same issue. 0n the roads, this is the view in greenford, just off the a40, long drive is closed because of a large fire there. the a40 is busier than usual into town from the target roundabout as a result. london city airport has reopened, as has the dll and surrounding roads. -- dlr. in streatham, hopton road remains closed following a stabbing on sunday. let's have a check on the weather now with kate kinsella. good morning.

it's not quite as cold as it was this time yesterday, but unfortunately it does mean that we're going to have a rather wet and windy day. now, many of us having a bright start but gradually the cloud will start to take over and the rain arriving. some heavy bursts in there as well, could fall a little bit wintry with sleet in there but mostly falling as rain and the wind will strengthen, its going to feel quite, between 3—6 the maximum. that rain cloud will clear away east overnight tonight and under clear skies once again the temperature is going to drop, back down into negative figures, the minimum between 0—2. we could get some icy stretches on untreated roads and surfaces first thing tomorrow morning, maybe a little bit of frost first thing but then gradually a repeat performance, the cloud arrives and then the rain arrives and as we head through wednesday again turning rather wet and windy. a brief bit of respite before thursday, temperatures getting a bit more mild, temperatures back into double figures and we should at least get the return of a little bit of sunshine. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast,

in the last few hours, 200 passengers departed for the north african country from birmingham airport. breakfast'sjohn maguire is there... i know you've been there since the early hours and spoke to passengers. good morning. good morning. a mixture of stories from the passengers, all with one unifying hope, they were going to travel to tunisia and have a wonderful holiday. some had booked because it was extremely cheap, the tour operators keen to get thibaut back to the north african country, others because they had been there for many yea rs because they had been there for many years previously and were desperate to get back somewhere, some of them had been travelling during the travel ban over the last couple of yea rs. travel ban over the last couple of years. some of them travelling via france to make sure they could still holiday in tunisia. they are on the flight, holiday in tunisia. they are on the flight, they have been in the air

for a couple of hours, another flight for a couple of hours, another flight due to take off from manchester. with it is idyllic white beaches and pristine mediterranean coastline, tunisia was a popular holiday destination for british tourists — attracted around 430,000 of them each year. but then came the attack injune 2015, when a gunman killed on a beach near sousse. so—called islamic state said it was behind the shooting. almost three years on from that deadly attack, and british tour companies are once again offering package holidays to the country. this morning 220 passengers were the first to return — flying from birmingham. i'm a bit nervous, because i didn't know we were the first one and we were out there the last time when the terrorist attack was on, so we were staying in the hotel down the road, but we love the country, so as soon as we knew there was a flight going, we thought we would be going back out there. i have still been travelling while it's been closed. i go to france or germany normally.

yeah, so, no, i'm not scared at all. fine, can't wait. no trouble. beautiful place. beautiful. probably more dangerous staying in london than it is staying out there. british officials say tunisia has made huge progress in counter terrorism and security since the attacks, although the foreign office advice that is travellers are vigilant at all times as the country remains in a state of emergency. in mixture of optimism and stoicism. the flight should be touching down in tunisia in the next few hours. the gatwick flights will take off tomorrow, there will be flights throughout the summer, weekly flights, throughout any airports across the uk, glasgow, newcastle, bristol. to come on—board. thomas going first. another big travel

operator travelling back to tunisia later in the summer. others hide 430,000 british holiday—makers went to tunisia, that number fell to around 24,000 to tunisia, that number fell to around 24, 000 travel experts to tunisia, that number fell to around 24,000 travel experts believe it will take time to recover but there has been a lot of work going on behind—the—scenes assistance to insure the libyan border is as secure as possible but to ensure there is heightened security around there is heightened security around the resorts. we have seen pictures over the years of empty hotels and deserted beaches, it's really important tourism dollar, the tourism pound for that part of the mediterranean, the bill will be very, very glad to see those flights arriving. today and over the next couple of days and over the summer with everyone hoping they have a happy and safe holiday. john maguire, thank you. the charities watchdog has launched a legal enquiry into 0xfam, amid concerns the charity failed to disclose all the details of sexual misconduct involving

aid workers in haiti, back in 2011. john mcmanus is outside the charity commission this morning. good morning. they are going to strike this inquiry but what else has been going on? this statutory inquiry by the charities commission berry aborted, it means the commission can demand 0xfam given evidence about what is said to have happened in haiti, the allegations ofaid happened in haiti, the allegations of aid workers paying for prostitutes, it means they can suspend trustees if they wish and they can seize the make —— they can freeze the charities bank account if they wish to. very serious. the charities commission in a statement said 0xfam may not have fully and frankie... —— bully and frankly. they encourage the public and public

donors to give money, as a former aid worker and labour mp told this programme. this scandal is growing and growing, it's not going away and what worries me is that this could consume oxfam and could indeed spread to other charities as well. what we don't need is for an organisation like oxfam to implode. yesterday we heard from helen evans, a former employee of oxfam who said she raised concerns with both her bossesin she raised concerns with both her bosses in the charity and the charity commission in 2015. she said she did not get a good enough response from either, the charity commission says it took concerns very seriously, much more to say on this, i think. thank you very much. a new tool to fight online terror and jihadi activity is being unveiled by the home secretary during a trip to the us. it aims to detect content and remove it instantly. it comes as one of the world's biggest companies has

threatened to pull advertising from social networks that don't do enough to remove extremist material. steph's here to tell us more. this is unilever and this is an interesting story because it could have an impact. two bits of news around the same area that could make around the same area that could make a difference to what we see and don't see an social media, on the sites that we use. looking at this government to add is being unveiled today, this has been created by an artificial intelligence company, they have created some software which can analyse hours and hours of content and work out which in it is extremist and then automatically get rid of it. so the idea being that they are saying it can, out of all they are saying it can, out of all the content of it can't work out and is capable of detecting 94% of iis online activity with an accuracy of 99 point 95%. the home secretary

saying she's not going to rule out forcing companies to use the softwa re forcing companies to use the software in order to get good of the extremist material. this is what she had to say. the purpose of commissioning this tech was to show that these tools are out there and that they can work. we've seen about 400 new platforms online used by terrorists in the last year and we thing for the small companies havikg this kind of technology could be ideal. i mention unilever because they are talking about advertising. yes, they are responsible for brands such as those, links, i could go on. they spent six pointed billion pounds on advertising buster, they are a big

layer, their chief marketing officer said they are threatening to pull advertising from online platforms like facebook and google if they don't do more to remove extremist material, they want their customers to trust what they see online, especially when the products are being advertised near it. brand association. they want that crackdown and that will put the fear into companies because that is an awful lot of money they could lose ifa awful lot of money they could lose if a company like bat pulled out and who else might follow? interesting things going on. thank you so much. american government investigators have been instructed to examine the grand canyon. becky dobson and brothers stuart and jason hill died in the crash. a number of others are being treated in a hospital in las vegas. it said they had to read a number of hours before being rescued

from the crash site. —— they had to wait a from the crash site. —— they had to waita number of from the crash site. —— they had to wait a number of hours. south africa's ruling party has made an official demand for presidentjacob zuma to step down, after a 13—hour meeting with leading figures from the african national congress. mr zuma has been the head of state since 2009, but his time in office has been overshadowed by corruption allegations. it is unclear how he will respond to the formal request to resign. bbc news has learned that the commonwealth has begun considering who might succeed the queen as the head of the organisation. ? member states could choose anyone as the ceremonial leader, as the role is not hereditary. the bbc has been told 53 member states have established a high level group of independent figures to look at the way the commonwealth is governed. it will meet for the first time today in london. it's 11 minutes past eight. as we've been hearing, package holidays to tunisia from the uk have resumed this morning. they've been suspended for almost 3 years after a terror attack that killed 30 british people who were on holiday there.

a travel ban was in place untiljuly last year, and the foreign office is still warning of potential attacks. 0ur security correspondent frank gardner has been looking at how tunisians hope to reassure travellers it's safe. tunisia is getting training from royal navy instructors and hotel staff have been trained. four key airports aviation experts have installed screening so i asked the british ambassador how safe is it now? no country is 100% safe as we saw with the attacks in london and manchester last year but it is safer here than it was in 2015 because the tunisian capability has improved. here than it was in 2015 because the tunisian capability has improvedm the resort town of work thomas cook is taking the first returning british tourists i asked the hotel manager what precautions he is taking. we have around 60 cameras

around the hotel. the exterior cameras are all monitored by 24 hours person behind the screens. you can see changes have been made. we're joined now by 0livia leathley, who was in that hotel in tunisia when the gunman attacked. thank you for coming back to talk to us, you have talked to us quite a lot, i am sure people will remember. tourists are going back. what do you think? good on them, i think. the main reason i wanted to come and speak today was on behalf of the staff and all the workers at the hotels, they have families, they need to support them, it's notjust the people who have lost people that it has devastated, its families over there as well. their lives have been ruined and it must have been incredibly difficult for them for the past couple of years to try and

survive and even earn a living and it's not their fault. survive and even earn a living and it's not theirfault. and survive and even earn a living and it's not their fault. and you survive and even earn a living and it's not theirfault. and you know, they were forming human shields in front of people they didn't even know and they are such wonderful, open, kind—hearted people and we could not have been better looked after and more people should experience that, so i'm glad people are going back. you spoken in the past about how you still think about what happened and which way you could have gone out at the hotel and help things could have happened differently but that would not stop you from going back to tunisia, you think? definitely not. i mean, in today's civil unrest, we have had a terror attack in manchester, my city. and you don't see people running off to canada, we come together, we are british, we support each other and we carry on and there area each other and we carry on and there are a lot of people in the hotel

resort who were brits and thought salt this, i am staying. they have earned that holiday and they wanted to stay there and i thought good on you, fantastic, we should not stop this small group of evil people stopping us from living our lives and they should not make us feel afraid because then they went. it's three years now and we talked to you very three years now and we talked to you very soon three years now and we talked to you very soon after you came back, i did things that still, memories you still have, things that still affect you? not really. the first year was ha rd you? not really. the first year was hard and! you? not really. the first year was hard and i can't even imagine what it's still like for the families, and friends that have lost people. it must still be incredibly raw. the only thing that still bothers me a little as fireworks. white. but i think that's more a case, psychological thing, but other than that, we are good. me and my boyfriend are good. looking at that first flight leaving

this morning, you'd think it is a good thing, particularly for the people of tunisia ? good thing, particularly for the people of tunisia? yes. it's a beautiful country. good on people for going. and you will go back when you can? definitely, they deserve it, definitely. thank you so much. take care. let's find out what the weather was like in this country at the moment. i would imagine, like in this country at the moment. iwould imagine, with like in this country at the moment. i would imagine, with the picture behind you, you have some grim news coming. not great. we have some sun around in scotland and northern england —— snow around. the combination of rain and wind. it doesn't make for a great start but things do get better for much of the country. rain has been falling from the sky here. as has snow. it has been the heaviest over scotland. 0ver

has snow. it has been the heaviest over scotland. over the next few hours the snow will ease from the west, over the hills, a dusting is possible through the central belt. but it's improving for the west. already seen that in northern ireland. could be some snow over the tops of the pennines and the welsh hills. heavy burst of rain pushing across southern england at the moment. there might be a few flakes of snow mixed in with the rain over the chilterns. but primarily rain. strong winds over the southern coast. that will whip up rough seas. but brighter skies will be pushing in from western areas in the afternoon. lots of sunshine. eastern cou nty stay afternoon. lots of sunshine. eastern county stay with the cloud, occasional rain. across the board another cool day, two bridges between four and 7 degrees at best where you have the sunshine, but with the cloud it won't feel as nice as yesterday. —— across—the—board, another cool day, temperatures between four and 7 degrees.

wednesday, temperatures dropping below freezing. then the next weather system works in and on the top of that there could be some snow. packed isobars around the weather fronts. another windy day. severe winds in parts, particularly over the hills, coasts, particularly in the south and west. but this mild airwill in the south and west. but this mild air will push in. the child may look alarming. but the snow will be primarily over the tops of the hills of northern england and scotland. rain to lower levels. northern ireland brightens up later. when the sun comes out, it'll be barmy at 10 degrees. still a bit on the chilly side for the north and east. wednesday night into thursday morning, the rain gradually clears off towards the near continent. there could be some frost and ice around. but a pleasant enough morning on thursday, dreyfuss southern and eastern parts by the afternoon, and still some snow

giving further accumulations for the west of scotland, the hills of northern ireland, and a couple of flurries from northern england and wales, as well. —— dry for southern and eastern parts by the afternoon. tell us your jokes for and eastern parts by the afternoon. tell us yourjokes for pancake day. i've been trying to think of more, but you have had it. mine is much batter. you have half an hour. shrove tuesday is an important day for some people. have you heard about the british heart foundation trying to get people to give up chocolate for health purposes. lots of people will be giving it up for lent. are you going to do it? iam are you going to do it? i am considering it. but i do have a drawer full of chocolate. most people talking about pancakes. i was flipping one earlier, i'm not allowed in their pancake club but

too many flips, no filling, and they thought the colour was uneven, that's pretty harsh. but fair. what about this for a filling? the best pancake you ever try is a marmite one. really? i'm a bit distracted by the fact you have a drawer of chocolate in your house. if there was such a thing it would not last in my house. it is high up on the children have no access. but i would know it was there. i hope you are enjoying shrove tuesday. i was pretty impressed by your efforts. let's take a look. people of the pancake, repair yourself, i'm about to flip. 0ne, two, three, four, five, six... i should point out that i was holding the phone in the other hand. you don't have to point out anything, it was really good. let's ta ke anything, it was really good. let's take a look at holly's effort. how are wejudging

take a look at holly's effort. how are we judging this? in the ski jump it is all about distance and style. if i get one of those i will be happy. ready? 0h! style. if i get one of those i will be happy. ready? oh! yeah! it made a bit of a mess. lorenzo, who is an expert, has feedback he says you did not wait forair feedback he says you did not wait for air bubbles on the top. the battle was on set and possibly a little bit thick. poor holly. have a lovely day, everybody. you are watching brea kfast. it was a dangerous and adrenaline fuelled flight that saw sasha dench become known as ‘the human swan'. in 2016, we followed the conservationist as she flew over 4,000 miles, following the migration of bewick‘s swans from russia to gloucestershire. her mission was to find out why swan numbers have declined so dramatically — whilst flying behind in a paraglider. now she's been awarded one of the most prestigious awards in aviation, to celebrate her pioneering innovation. you might recognise some of the previous winners. take a look.

i'm delighted to say that sasha is here. it hasn't really sunk in that of won it. when they said i had won the britannia, i didn't think it was that one. not a lot of women have won it. not for a long time. and nobody has won it in a paraglider, normally it is people in proper aircraft. we followed you on your flight. aircraft. we followed you on your flight. remind us, though, for people who haven't, remind us where you started, where you went, and some of the amazing thing is that you saw on the way. how long have you saw on the way. how long have you got! up in russia where people are nomadic reindeer breeders, through the baltic and all the way back to the uk. i remember it so

well. we used to see you so much here. such an extraordinaryjourney to undertake. why did you want to do it? what was the most amazing thing he found out doing it? the most inspiring thing is the number of people who put up their hand and said, yes, we are happy to try and help. that was an exciting thing. i had a theory that when i land, it was kind of pathetic, i didn't look like a superhero, flying in that, and it was freezing cold so i probably had snot on my face. i landed on people's reaction was, how cani landed on people's reaction was, how can i help? i hoped that would apply to the swans and it seems to have worked. we now have a lot of people on the flyweight doing things. next month i am going back up to the artic. lots of work going on. what are you trying to stop, catching and

shooting? there is some shooting in the tundra. but there also is in germany and other countries. we are working with partners along the flyweig ht. working with partners along the flyweight. but it looks like we are having an impact. it's exciting. something as mad as doing this across all of these countries is working. i imagine lots of people are interested in what you found. and the science behind the trip, as well. there were lots of researchers behind it all. i had them end of a satellite phone when i had a question. we found a new areas in russia just following the swans and seeing where they stopped. i could fly over them and see that swans we re fly over them and see that swans were using this particular area. now were using this particular area. now we know there is area to look at. the key thing, but in britain, what you notice from the air is the difference between the number of weapons that you get on the other side of the flyover and here. there

—— the loss of weapons in this country is an issue and possibly the topic of my next expedition. country is an issue and possibly the topic of my next expeditionm must‘ve been extraordinary flying alongside those incredible birds. did they recognise you? did they accept you were with them? what was it like? when i was in the air, certainly in the northern remote areas i was ignored by them. they could just fly. they flew nearly, around me, the lonely, but not close. and i wasn't trying to fly close. and i wasn't trying to fly close to them. up there, in remote areas, they ignored you. but as you get across more developed part of the worlds, they learned that people can be dangerous. the more people they are, the more nervous they are, which is interesting. you mentioned your next project would be about the wetlands. would you tell us what that involves? nothing is confirmed as of yet. but basically what we would like to do is a tour around

the whole of the uk. look at where weapons have gone. we've lost 90% in the last 400 years. —— wetlands have gone. it is rivers that have been turned into canals. it is great that you can see swans in certain areas, but it isn't natural, it is in the way it should be, there should be more around the country. i want to fly around the uk and talk to everybody and look at where they have gone and could we put them back, some of them, at least. so good to meet you properly. thank you so much. time to get the news, travel, and weather where you are watching us. good morning. we've got some wet and windy weather heading our way today, some of that following as snow, some of the weather quite disruptive this morning. this weather front moving east, ahead of it, some brighter skies in the far east. the cloud rolling in behind it. the hind the

northern ireland but elsewhere, a widespread frost for wednesday morning, temperatures as low as minus four degrees. rain moving in turning to snow across the higher ground of northern england and scotland, for many patchy rain clearing eastwards. some brighter skies coming through northern ireland later, temperatures fairly similarto ireland later, temperatures fairly similar to today, between 4—8d. more on the website, that's all from me. goodbye. this is business live from bbc news with samantha simmonds and ben thompson. a milestone for tourism to tunisia. the travel operator thomas cook resumes holidays to the country for the first time since the terror attacks 3 years ago. live from london, that's our top story on tuesday 13th february. can tunisia bounce
