# and i know we'll meet again... #. yes, she was the forces' sweetheart. and now, almost 80 years later, vera lynn is the darling of the classic brits awards. colin paterson, bbc news. time for a look at the weather. here's stav. the field not looking quite as vibrant and golden under the grey skies, quite a bit of rain around, spreading east, some of it quite heavy, all courtesy of this area of low pressure. ice bar is fairly packed together, it has been quite windy and cold through the morning. scribe writing up behind, you can see on the radar, heaviest of the rain, currently across the eastern side of england, if you share following on behind, some of them

quite heavy, maybe even a rumble of thunder with some some of them, but they should be plenty of sunshine this afternoon, as the rain slowly clears east. cooler day today. temperatures of around ten to 12 or 13 at best. eventually, the rain band clears away from the eastern side of the country. skies starts to clear overnight. showers fade away, bed of cloud pushing to western scotland, northern ireland. not quite as cool. quite a chilly nights to come, one or two rural places. for thursday morning, nice bright note, albeit rather chilly, best of the sunshine will be across the eastern side, eastern scotland and england. further west, more eastern side, eastern scotland and england. furtherwest, more cloud, more of a breeze, and outbreaks of rain. importing south—westerly wind ina mild rain. importing south—westerly wind in a mild correction, feeling a touch warmer, 30 to 16 —— 13 to 16. warmer still on friday, best of the sunshine across central and eastern

parts of the country, further north and west, more of a breeze closer to and west, more of a breeze closer to a weather system there, more cloud, maybe the odd spot of rain. for most places, should be dry, temperatures boosting up to 17 to 19 celsius. the reason for the rise in temperatures, the jet stream moving reason for the rise in temperatures, thejet stream moving north, on the warmer side of thejet, thejet stream moving north, on the warmer side of the jet, areas of high pressure will keep things fine and settle for friday and into the bank they weaken. the jet will continue to fire in weather systems across the far north—west. 0ver continue to fire in weather systems across the far north—west. over here on saturday, more of a breeze, north—west scotland, may be northern ireland, a few spots of rain, further south, high—pressure influence, lighterwind, further south, high—pressure influence, lighter wind, and some really good spells of sunshine. 19, maybe 22 degrees. what a change it makes for bank holiday weekend to be fine and settled and quite warm. most of us will be dry but the far north—west of the country could continue to see a bit more cloud and outbreaks of rain. looking pretty good. a reminder of our main

story this lunchtime. it's emerged nearly half a million women in england weren't asked to attend their final breast—cancer screening, largely because of computer errors. breast—cancer screening, tragically, breast—cancer screening, there are likely to be some tragically, there are likely to be some people in this group who would have been alive today if the failure had not happened. that's all from the bbc news at 0ne, so it's goodbye from me, and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc‘s news teams where you are. it's 1:30pm and here's your latest sports news. hello, i'm hugh ferris. liverpool fans are hoping for safe passage and safe return as they arrive in rome this afternoon. they do so for the second leg of their champions league semifinal, which will be played amid tight secruity in the italian capital. 3,000 police officers are being deployed, and liverpool supporters have been given an updated 15—point plan of advice to avoid certain areas, respect rules and not walk to the stadio 0limpico.

liverpool lead 5—2 after the first leg of the semi. the fight around a football game is only on the pitch and the rules are the football rules, and anybody who does not accept these rules will be sent off, so that is clear. it was always like this and should be always like this. real madrid await liverpool, should they reach the final. but, according to stephen warnock, who was with liverpool the last time they won the tournament in 2005, roma will still think they can come back from three goals down, as they did against barcelona in the last round. they had five goals scored against them, but at the end of the game, if liverpool have given them that glimmer of hope, i think from liverpool's point of view, they go with the mindset that if they can score the game is over. look at the front three of liveable and they are dangerous, capable in any defence

problems. they caused allsorts of problems. they caused allsorts of problems in the first. we talk about romeu not conceding any goals in the champions league at home this season, but liverpool have scored 25 on the road, more than any other team. they will go the full of confidence and romeu will know that, they will be in for a tough night. fifa have proposed staging a new mini world cup, called the final eight, every other year as part of a new revamp of international football. the new tournament would replace the confederations cup, which takes place a year before the world cup each four years and would involve eight teams that qualify via a global nations league. fifa is planning an overhaul that they think could be worth around £18 billion over a 12—year cycle. england's men are up to number one in cricket's one day international rankings. they've overtaken india to take top spot for the first time in five years. england have won 41 of 63 matches since eoin morgan became captain. they struggled in test cricket this winter,

but were dominant against australia in their one day series winning 4—1. ding junhui is out of the world snooker championship, beaten in the quarter finals by barry hawkins. ding was the favourite before the last eight, but was comprehensively outplayed by hawkins, who took the two frames he needed for victory in the first two this morning, eventually wrapping up a 13—5 win with a century break. i thought i played pretty well. i felt lucky get up at the end there. you want to win every session if you can. obviously winning 6—2 last night was a massive boost because u nless night was a massive boost because unless you collapse after 11—5, you will get some chances to finish the match off. i was happy to make those couple of friends and get it over and done with. i've got more time to do something

else. i wish i could win today. some days are bad, some days are good. i just tried my best. i won't give up yet. hopefully our game more —— hopefully again i will get more experience as i get older. that's all the sport for now. you can find more on all those stories on the bbc sport website. that's bbc.co.uk/sport. it's been revealed that a50,00 women in england weren't asked to attend breast cancer screenings when they should have been, largely because of an it failure. within the past hour, the health secretary, jeremy hunt, has told mps that between 135 and 270 women could have had their lives shortened because of the mistake

i wish to inform the house of a serious failure that has come to light in the national breast screening programme. earlier this year, pag analysis of trial data from the service found that there was a computer algorithm failure dating back to 2009. the latest estimate i received suggests that as a result of this, between 2009 and the start of 2018, an estimated 450,000 women aged between 68 and 71 were not invited to their final breast screening. at this stage, it is unclear whether any delay in diagnosis but have resulted in any avoidable harm or death. that

is one of the reasons i'm ordering an independent review to establish the clinical impact. 0ur an independent review to establish the clinical impact. our current best estimate, which comes with caveats as it is based on statistical modelling rather than patient reviews, and because there is currently no clinical consensus about the benefits of screening for this age group, is that there may be between 135 and 270 women who had their lives shortened as a result. i am advised that it is unlikely to be more than this range, it may be considerably less. however, tragically, there are likely to be some people in this group who would have been alive today if the failure had not happened. shadow health secretary, jon ashworth reflected on the women whose lives were affected by the error. the thoughts of the whole house will be with those whose screenings were

missed. anyone who has had a loved one taken by cancer will know of the great pain and anguish of that loss. i understand that secretary of state has referred to estimates, but when the facts are established, will they assure us the facts are established, will they assure us that each and every case will be looked into sensitively and ina timely will be looked into sensitively and in a timely manner? our thoughts also turn to the 450,000 women who we re also turn to the 450,000 women who were not offered the screening they should have had. i welcome the secretary of state's commitment to contact the 3009000 women estimated to be still alive. ——. the department of health says patients are encouraged not to contact their gp in the first instance, but to contact the dedicated national helpline that has been set up, on 0800169 2692, or to look on the nhs choices website for more information. it's the last day of campaigning, before voters go

to the polls tomorrow in local elections across england. more than 4,000 seats are up for grabs across 150 councils — and there are six mayoral elections also taking place. it is the first test of voters‘ opinions in england since last year's snap general election, as our political correspondent chris mason reports. if you're in a science lesson and the prime minister rolls up, there is at least a chance that an election is on the timetable. welcome to brooklands primary in sale in greater manchester, labour's trying to nab the local council, trafford, from the conservatives. i think when people go to vote they are going to say, who do we want running the local council, who do we want making the decisions about how our money is spent, about providing those services for us, and if you look across, you will see it is conservative—run councils that cost less and provide good quality services. hang on a minute, says jeremy corbyn, still basking in the sunshine of his i lost the general election but not by as much as you thought moment.

if you want good quality local services, then central government has to be there supporting, you cannot expect good services if you're cutting in some cases by half the amount of central government money that goes to local communities. tomorrow's elections are primarily in urban areas, and they are all in england, the results will be watched keenly here at westminster, with people feverishly asking what does this all mean for us. local elections do help mould the mood of national parties, but wild extrapolations make a smattering of elections while tempting should be treated with judicious course on. in cheltenham, liberal democrats run the council, their leader is managing to rein in his exuberance about results elsewhere. i don't think we are going to get a spectacular breakthrough, i think that would be totally unrealistic given where we are starting from, what we have found in this election are people have knocked on more doors than on any other earlier local election recorded.

morale is good. the greens have two leaders, one of them is the party's only mp and the other is campaigning here in camden in london. we know that when people see the greens can get elected they vote green, and we are seeing it increased across the country, several hundred councillors, i'm anticipating that will go up. this is how well ukip did in the local elections in 2014, this, the great yarmouth dance. since then, on the side of the winners in the eu referendum, on the slide in elections ever since. gerard batten is their latest leader. from seven o'clock tomorrow morning, ballot papers and stubby pencils will be wielded at a panoply of polling stations like this they close their doors at 10pm, tomorrow night. theresa may and jeremy corbyn have clashed at prime minister's questions over the windrush scandal.

i'm joined from westminster by our assistant political editor, norman smith. let's listen tojeremy corbyn again challenging mrs may over the windrush scandal. the then home secretary denied there were any targets. the premise to tell the media, or there were targets when she was the home secretary. she wonders why she didn't tell her home secretary about that. the pain caused to the windrush generation needs to be resolved for it quickly, and full compensation paid as quickly as it can be. and an understanding of the hurt that they feel.

again, she apologised for the scandal but apportion the blame on previous labour governments. my right honourable friend, the home secretary, will be addressing the house on this later today. we all share the ambition to make sure we do right by members of the windrush generation. and that is why he will be announcing a package of measures to bring transparency on the issue, to inform, make sure that the house is informed, to reassure members of this house. but more importantly to reassure those people who have been directly affected. speed is of the essence and my right honourable friend will be commissioning a full review of lessons learned, independent oversight, and external challenge with the intention of reporting back to this house before we rise for the summer. and the review will have full access to all relevant information in the home office, including policy papers and casework decisions. we might hear more on windrush shortly, so we will keep half an eye on whether the new home secretary

rises. he is expected to announce a review of the rules and regulations that court people in this scandal. we can discuss that with my guests. sajid javid is obviously knew. how big a change does she have to make? in terms of the procedures and the ways the rules are implemented and some change in roles, as he will announce this afternoon, he will have to make a change. that is quite clear. but that change should not be departing from the thought that legal migrants and illegal migrants are different things. we do need to keep the approach of making sure that illegal migrants approach the

rules properly. on the tens of thousands target which mrs may has stuck to, time to get rid of it? thousands target which mrs may has stuck to, time to get rid of mm isa stuck to, time to get rid of mm is a manifesto commitment, has been since 2010. the home secretary will make his own judgment with the prime minister. i don't think necessarily having such targets is the most important thing. what you've got to do is look at the right level of immigration at different times, which may change from year to year. how far do you think labour has some responsibility here? the language, the rhetoric over immigration has been heightened through successive governments, going back to tony blair. what we need to focus on at the moment is the windrush generation. we need to say that they are legally allowed to be here, they have suffered, been through terrible anxiety. certainly i would say that what would be a step forward is to

look at transparency and that the government support our debate and motion this afternoon, asking for that transparency in e—mails and text messages so that they can be reassured that they will get the support they need. one area which sajid javid has suggested he might look at is bringing back appeals and legal aid for immigration cases. goodidea? legal aid for immigration cases. good idea? certainly people have spent out of their own pocket employing lawyers and so want to sort this out. i think everything will person who has suffered absolutely need compensation, and thatis absolutely need compensation, and that is the floor where we start. we need to put in front and centre because they are british citizens. caroline lucas, is there anything more that needs to be offered or done for the windrush families? we have had a package of concessions, the offer of money and so on and so forth. is there more that you think needs to be done? i think there is in terms of the home office overall. this limited review we are connected

to him about this afternoon doesn't go farenough to him about this afternoon doesn't go far enough because although windrush is absolutely appalling, the whole way the home office acts towards immigrants overall is appalling, things like the flights going off in the middle of the night and only being allowed to appeal when you get to the other end, and maybe not even then. people locked in detention centres. there is something rotten at the heart of the home office that needs to be put into special measures, frankly. we need to have a root and branch real public enquiry into the way in which this covenant is treating immigration. what about targets? successive governments have had targets. are they in principle from? i think they are because they mean that it i think they are because they mean thatitis i think they are because they mean that it is much harder to make the distinction which they are trying to make between illegal and illegal migrants. what we're seeing time and again that in the search to make targets, people who are here legally or itching to be guilty on till they prove themselves innocent. those

targets are part of the toxic atmosphere that reeks throughout the home office. timed to end targets? i disagree. anyone who works in any business will know that having target is a useful way of driving change and driving things through an organisation. it does mean that all are good, but you could talk about the level any targets should be at. but i do think target in principle 01’ but i do think target in principle ora but i do think target in principle or a bad idea. but i do think target in principle ora bad idea. sometimes, especially when it comes to illegal immigration, we need to make sure that that change is being driven through the home office. we know gerrie nel brexit debate, immigration was one of the big issues. has the windrush scandal become a watershed moment? you think it has changed or refashioned attitudes towards immigration?”

would hope so. immigrants are built so would hope so. immigrants are built so much of this country. what we needis so much of this country. what we need is that conversation around the doctors who have their status, they could come over and now they have been banned from coming over. the nhs is in crisis. i would rather be treated by a doctor than no doctor. irrespective of where they come from, if there legal status is correct. we need to look globally, be more expansive about what we need after we leave the eu. they windrush generation helped build the country and we have to thank them for that. 0ne and we have to thank them for that. one idea mooted by borisjohnson in cabinet, an old idea of his, was an amnesty for immigrants who have been here for ten years or more. some say it was an incentive. it is worth looking at because if we seriously going to try to move that many people off the shores of the uk,

that will be a bureaucratic nightmare and i don't believe the home office has got the capacity to do it. i would rather they focused on getting right the applications in front of them now, let's make sure we get to that right going forward, rather than looking backwards to all of the huge amount of bureaucracy that would be required to do that. once people are given rise, they are paying their taxes, they are people here, let's move forward. we know mrs may faces a difficult decision on what to replace the customs union with. how serious the think that it is to herfrom brexit with. how serious the think that it is to her from brexit supporters who are determined she drops this idea of the customs partnership?” suppose we will find out. my idea is simple. in certain practical ways, mrs may believes we would want to cooperate with radical arrangements.

that is something that the whole party ca n that is something that the whole party can get behind. 0ne that is something that the whole party can get behind. one of the difficulties at the moment is that there is a lack of details as to exactly how that will work out exactly how that will work out exactly how that will work out exactly how that will transpire, but conceptually i do believe the customs partnership, want people under stand the details of it, it would unite the country at large. are we heading for a brexit bust up, 01’ are we heading for a brexit bust up, or has mrs may managed to keep eve ryo ne or has mrs may managed to keep everyone on board ? or has mrs may managed to keep everyone on board? the clarity is there that she cannot have a blank cheque. we need to have a parliamentary vote. it can't be the executive. that has come out berry clear, and i think the eu uk agreement is the only way to protect jobs. we are not protecting theresa may'sjob, we're protecting jobs

throughout the country. she has failed to come up with a workable solution in northern ireland. it would put the good friday agreement at risk. it should be a key point because that border is massively important, peace in northern ireland is massively important. the solution she is suggesting now has been called everything from cretin is too magical thinking from russells. it will not work, she has to go back to the drawing board. thank you. we're waiting for sajid javid to get to his feet. you may see him shortly. 0ne his feet. you may see him shortly. one thing his feet. you may see him shortly. 0ne thingi his feet. you may see him shortly. one thing i noticed, i don't know if you were watching, a amber rudd was looking pretty good after the battering in recent days. this suggests that once you out of the

horrors of the home office, you tend to feel a lot better. many thanks. we are expecting an 80 minutes sajid javid —— in a few minutes‘ time, a statement about windrush and the review that has been announced by the prime minister. at the moment, health questions still going on after that urgent statement by jeremy hunt. we will bring you the statement from sajid javid as soon as it happens this afternoon, probably on afternoon live. 0ne

one of our reporters has said that since the aria started bombing islamic state, the ministry of defence has admitted that an raf air strike has caused a civilian casualty. they said that an air strike by a drone on and isp called in syria earlier this year unintentionally killed a civilian on a motorbike across the target area at the last minute. the raf has carried out more than 1600 and strikes in iraq and syria. this is the first time it has admitted to causing civilian harm. a source inside the coalition has told the bbc he believes that air strikes have caused civilian casualties on several occasions. time for a look at the weather. it has been a grotty start to the

day today. the winds have been pretty strong as well. rather leaden skies. across the north and west of the country, behind the rain, skies been brightening up beautifully. there will be plenty of sunshine living in elsewhere behind this weather system as it slowly clears away from the east coast. it will leave in its wake a few scattered showers, that is what we are looking at across lots of northern ireland and wales. but the bulk of the rain is across the eastern side of england at the moment. it will take its time to clear, but it will do. elsewhere, a fine end to the day. most elsewhere, a fine end to the day. m ost pla ces elsewhere, a fine end to the day. most places will have clear skies. less cold for northern ireland, but down to one or 2 degrees elsewhere. a chilly note, dry and bright first thing tomorrow morning. further

west, more cloud rolling in which will spread into the eastern areas. it will be fairly patchy cloud through southern and eastern parts. some showers and more cloud further west. i touch warmer, 15 or 16 degrees across the south—east. friday is even warmer, again largely dry with more cloud across northern and western areas. the rest of the weather towards the south and east. more of a breeze to the far north. temperatures could reach 18 or 19 degrees. the reason why the temperatures are rising is because ourjet temperatures are rising is because our jet stream has temperatures are rising is because ourjet stream has now moved to the north of the country, we are on the warmer side of thejet north of the country, we are on the warmer side of the jet and high pressure will dominate for friday and into the bank, day weekend, good news for most of us. it will continue to fire some weather systems into the north—west of the country. the saturday, more of a breeze without bricks of rain. ——
