hello. it's tuesday, it's 9 o'clock. i'm victoria derbyshire. welcome to the programme. after years of arguments and delays, a third runway at heathrow is expected to be given the go ahead by ministers today. but will it get it through the house of commons? this is a massively expensive than polluting proposal to expand heathrow. people would prefer to see a regional airport strategy that has the connections they need on their doorstep, instead of having to go hundreds of miles to drive to london and fly out from heathrow airport. it isa and fly out from heathrow airport. it is a 20th century strategy. also: the astounding story of the woman who survived being aborted. what i learned was that my 19—year—old birth mother, as a college student, had a saline infusion abortion and that type of procedure was meant to poison me to death and, of course, the final step of the procedure was that i would then be delivered dead and instead i was actually born alive.

years later, mother and daughter have been reunited. hear the full interview at quarter to ten and michael mcintyre, sitting in his car outside his children's school, has been robbed by two men on a moped. we'll bring you the details. hello. welcome to the programme. we're live until ”am this morning. do you live near heathrow airport? will you be affected? maybe you work there. do let us know your own views. it's back in the news today. because controversial plans for a third runway at heathrow airport are expected to be approved by ministers today the expansion has faced fierce opposition from campaigners who say it will breach the uk's legal limits on air pollution as well as dividing parties across the political spectrum. mps could now be asked to vote on the proposals within weeks. jon donnison reports. heathrow is already one

of the world's busiest airports. the debate over whether it should be even bigger, with a third runway, has been going on for decades. it's long divided opinion, not just amongst the public, but also within the cabinet. we believe a third runway for heathrow is the best option for ourfuture, it's the best for the whole country to create better connectivity to the different regions of the united kingdom, and to provide the best trade links to the world. but that's a far cry from the foreign secretary, boris johnson, who once offered this pledge to heathrow expansion protesters. i will lie down with you in front of those bulldozers and stop the building, stop the construction of that third runway. heathrow‘s owners say a third runway would cost around £14 billion, but would increase capacity from 85 million to 130 million passengers a year. the plans are expected to get cabinet approval today.

the government then faces the trickier task of getting them through parliament. and even if they do, heathrow expansion could still be challenged in the courts. jon donnison, bbc news. our political guru, norman smith, is at westminster. is it now finally going to get the go—ahead? is it now finally going to get the go-ahead? i would like to be able to say definitely, absolutely, yes, but with heathrow, you do not know. this has been going on since the early 19705, has been going on since the early 1970s, so you cannot absolutely predict anything with heathrow. mrs may ) will predict anything with heathrow. mrs may) will believe they have the numbers to push it through. the cabinet will agree roundabout now that they want to press the go button on heathrow. the only significant voice in cabinet we expect to speak out against it is mr

borisjohnson who, as we head back, has pledged to lie down in front of stea m has pledged to lie down in front of steam rollers, etc, to block it. we understand that mrs may will order tory mps to back the heathrow decision but, crucially, she will allow ministers with a long—standing reputation of opposing heathrow to vote against it. in other weather will be a get out ofjail card for the likes of borisjohnson who, otherwise, would have to resign over the issue. you have to say, given mrs may) turmoil over brexit, a lot of people think, crikey. at the same time she will try to push through this very divisive vote on heathrow. she is asking for trouble is the mac at the time when the transport secretary ‘s beleaguered over rail chaos. —— she is asking for trouble. if you wait till the end of this film, you will see him way to get the door of number 10, actually waiting to get in, as if his

entrance has been delayed. have a look. are you considering your position this morning, mr grayling? have you got a grip on the rows fiasco? is heathrow going to get its third runway? —— the rail. are you being kept waiting, mr grayling?” bet he was wondering if perhaps he would not be let in. another huge task for chris grayling. thank you very much. we are going to be talking that heathrow more in the programme. if you live there and work their tellers the bit about the fact that todayit tellers the bit about the fact that today it appears the cabinet will say yes, it will go ahead and tell us say yes, it will go ahead and tell us how you expect your mp to build on it. we are told you they will vote in the next few minutes. now the rest of the news. joanna gosling is in the bbc

newsroom with a summary of the rest of the day's news. at least 69 people are now known to have died in the most violent volcanic eruption to hit guatemala in more than a century. the country's disaster agency said rescuers had recovered more bodies from villages on the slopes below the fuego volcano, but dozens of people remain missing. 0ur correspondent, aleem maqbool, reports from the scene. the first funerals tell of just how cruel the eruption was and the victims it took. here they carry the coffin of three—year—old jenifer andrea morales. six other members of her family were killed too. the volcano remains shrouded in smoke, but gives away little of the sudden catastrophic violence it wrought. the land tells a different tale, scarred and suffocated by lava and ash. more eyewitness footage has emerged since the eruption. this was taken several hours after main explosion, yet lava and gas still spew out. thousands of people from the area around the volcano have been displaced and they're coming to churches and government buildings and schools for refuge.

many of them have no idea when they'll be allowed back home and what's left of their possessions. and it's clear speaking to people of the area who have already suffered so much that they are now still fearful of more eruptions to come. aleem maqbool, bbc news, in guatemala. the cost of petrol rose last month at the fastest rate for 18 years. figures from the rac show that rising global oil prices helped put up fuel costs by nearly 6p a litre in may. average petrol prices hit 129.lip a litre, while average diesel prices also rose to 132.3p a litre. the cause of this has been as a result of a double—whammy effectively. we've seen the cost of a barrel of oil go above $80 in may. what we've also seen is the weakening of the pound, and that double—whammy, as oil is traded in dollars,

means the wholesale costs have increased, which has translated into higher prices at the pumps for drivers. the comedian, michael mcintyre, has been robbed by thieves on a moped, as he waited to collect his children from a school in north london. according to reports, the men smashed his car windows before taking his watch and speeding off. police said no injuries were reported and no arrests have been made. mps will hold an emergency debate today, on whether to allow abortions to take place in northern ireland. the move — backed by a cross—party group of mps — follows a referendum in the republic of ireland last month which voted to lift the ban. labour mp stella creasy told the commons it's wrong that northern ireland is out of step with the rest of the uk. number ten says the issue should be dealt with by stormont once devolution is restored. the life of a woman with terminal breast cancer has been saved by a pioneering new therapy,

according to researchers in america. judy perkins was given just three months to live but two years later there is no sign of the disease in her body. the treatment involved using her own tumour to grow 90 billion immune cells which were then pumped into her body. more than 50 countries are taking action to reduce plastic pollution, that's according to a report from the united nations. the authors say policies are improving but more needs to be done to reduce the blight on rivers and oceans. here's our environment analyst, roger harrabin. another heartbreaking plastic story. this pilot whale in southern thailand swallowed more than 80 plastic bags weighing more than eight kilos. another big team of our throwaway society. —— victim. south—east asia is afflicted by plastic pollution. this is indonesia, where the army has been brought in to clear great matts of plastic waste blocking up rivers.

it's in the early stages of tackling the plastic scourge. india is more advanced. mass clean—ups have been arranged for beaches although the problem keeps recurring because there's no system for collecting waste in many of the slums. its leaders say things will change. several african nations have led the way on tackling plastic pollution. here in kenya there are now big fines for using plastic bags. the un report says good policies in some african nations are undermined though by weak enforcement of laws. we have the solutions, we know what to do. it's more about getting the political will, getting the business leaders to act, the civil society, and all of us as a consumer. we can do something. this is why we need, and we are so happy that the media is paying attention to this, because it rolls out this massive problem. together we can solve it. we need to stay positive and we know what to do. just a few decades of careless living have caused this devastation. a start is being made towards limiting the flow of plastic into the sea.

but this problem will take hundreds of years to solve. russia's president says his country is not trying to split the european union. vladimir putin's remarks come ahead of a visit to austria, his first trip to a western european country in nearly a year. speaking to austrian media , mr putin said he wanted a "united and prosperous" eu, calling the bloc russia's most important commercial and economic partner. he also played down reported links between his united russia party and austria's far—right freedom party. technology company apple plans to frustrate tools used by facebook to automatically track web users within the next version of its i0s and mac operating systems. apple's software chief craig federighi confirmed the news at the firm's developers conference. the web browser safari would ask owners' permission before allowing the social network to monitor their activity. the move is likely to add to tensions between the two companies. the singer, ariana grande, says she doesn't think she'll

massachusetts general hospital says... that is quite medical speak. basically saying a concussion has happened which likely occurred following the event. most importantly... that would explain why the two mistakes in the final we re why the two mistakes in the final were so bad, victoria. a pretty astonishing statement from a former manchester city player. is not the first time we have heard something extreme from yaya toure. he has been hugely critical of old boss pep guardiola suggesting he often has problems with africans. there are other amazing quotes with yaya

toure, saying that guardiola was jealous of him and cruel to him. the clu b jealous of him and cruel to him. the club has declined to comment on this astonishing interview. a big change in the government ‘s stance on safe standing. they will look again at a law which requires all premier league and championship grounds to be all—seater. in april ministers rejected an application for safe standing at west bromwich albion. this is driven by fan and club demand. celtic do have safe standing at their ground, celtic park. that is the sport for now. sorry, i did not mean to put you off prematurely. good morning. losing a child at birth or in early infancy is a tragedy. for parents, it's all the more tragic if that loss could have been prevented. today, a group of senior doctors and maternity experts are warning that a lack of proper training

for nhs staff is contributing to an excess of maternity deaths in the uk. they say that inconsistent practices across nhs trusts is contributing to over 1,000 healthy babies dying or acquiring severe brain injuries every year in the uk — that's three a day. in around 75% of these cases, it is thought that different care might have prevented the result. we can speak now to dr william parry—smith, a gynaecologist and one of the senior medical professionals drawing attention to this problem. in north yorkshire is wendy pratt, whose baby daughter was delivered stillborn. thank you for talking to us. you conceived through ivf and learned you were expecting a baby girl. tell us your emotions and feelings

at that time. anyone who has gone through ivf will understand how ecstatic you are when you do finally become pregnant. we had been trying for six years when we conceived matilda and she was an ivf attempt. we were overjoyed. it was a wonderful experience. what was it that midwifery staff your hospital did not pick up on? from about 24 weeks i had been complaining of reduced movement. although i had visited the pregnancy assessment unit, the day assessment unit, they reassured me everything was fine but they had not written down in the notes i had been there. when i was eventually admitted just before 27 weeks there was nothing in my records. there was a real lack of communication between midwives in different departments and it resulted in a delay in emergency

delivery. she actually died during delivery. she actually died during delivery in leeds. and that was... she was 27 weeks and one day, i understand. yes, just over 27 weeks, thatis understand. yes, just over 27 weeks, that is right. do you know if she could have survived had different ca re could have survived had different care being given? we did have an investigation done. the outcome was if she had been delivered earlier and more notice taken of me complaining about reduced movement, then, yes, there was a likelihood she could have survived. can you describe how you tried to deal with the loss of your baby? it changes you entirely. it changes your life entirely. my life will never be the same again. it isjust entirely. my life will never be the same again. it is just over eight yea rs same again. it is just over eight years and i still think about her everyday. i still wish i had spoken up everyday. i still wish i had spoken up more and demanded a scan. it was

not my position to do that. i blamed myself for a long time afterwards andi myself for a long time afterwards and i still... my life, i left my job. i need to do with the only child i will ever have died when she needn't have. i have been u nsuccessful at needn't have. i have been unsuccessful at idf. you talked about a lack of notes and communication. was it more than that? -- ivf. what communication. was it more than that? —— ivf. what more could the staff have done? i used to work for the nhs. no one in the nhs is thinking they do not want to do theirjob and they will do a sloppy job. what we have is the system, especially in rural areas. my hospital was a rule hospital. it was an underfunded and understaffed system with targets put in place. it

puts an enormous amount of pressure on people to get to the next patient as fast as they can. without that pressure, we have more time and more attention to detail. more of the protocols around writing things down and making sure that tasks are done more efficiently, that would have made a real difference and i hope it would make a difference to patients in the future. i would not wish this on my worst enemy. i'm going to bring in dr william parry smith. when we talked about records not being updated, lack of communication, that is really basic stuff, isn't it? what we found with the conservative statement we are launching today is that, we are calling on the government to fund training in maternity frontline professions and to ensure that training is high standard, high quality and mandated across nhs trusts. we know there is variation

in people's and. some trusts will fund one—day training and others, five or six. the frequency and quality of training needs to be addressed. that can only happen with funding by the government and the nhs mandating high—quality training. that is really the message for today. at the moment there is some compulsory training, as you would expect with nhs midwifery staff. i understand it focuses on basic aspects of clinical care, management of emergencies, manual handling and aduu of emergencies, manual handling and adult resuscitation, rather than on specific skills like monitoring a ba by‘s specific skills like monitoring a baby's heart specific skills like monitoring a ba by‘s heart rate specific skills like monitoring a baby's heart rate or neonatal resuscitation. the basic training of aduu resuscitation. the basic training of adult resuscitation is given to every nhs member of staff. what we are saying is that maternity training should have a specific set of training requirements and they

should be around as we heard, mainly tea m should be around as we heard, mainly team working and communication skills and skills, drills, the whole tea m skills and skills, drills, the whole team working together, monitoring the baby's team working together, monitoring the ba by‘s heart. team working together, monitoring the baby's heart. surely midwives have mandatory training. midwives, as all professionals, are trained but it is important to keep up to date with your training. part of the decisions they make is around the tea m decisions they make is around the team element. no one person works in isolation in maternity. it is the whole team working together with human factors and barriers to care which can be addressed with high—quality training. which can be addressed with high-quality training. is it in the end about funding which is leading to these unnecessary deaths? our analysis as part of a consensus group is that funding is one of the key elements and external training, said internal trust training, is quite variable. some training is

very good and others less good. some will focus on e—learning and the outcomes of that training are often not evaluated. we are saying a lot of training should be delivered by external organisations that are quality assured and that training then evaluated at the end of the day. wendy, how do you respond to these figures produced today that, of the 1000 healthy babies who die, orare of the 1000 healthy babies who die, or are severely brain damaged during birth, nearly three quarters could have been prevented by different care? unfortunately, it does not surprise me at all. i read figures about this over and again. if you think it is eight years since we lost our daughter and we're still having the same conversation is about it, it is really disheartening. we need to stop talking about and start to put something in place to stop happening. the charity we are dealing with here, what it is doing,

it is brilliant. 0ther charities like tommies are also doing important work. i would love to see these figures coming down. i do think it is a matter of training and funding, like we said. let me just read to you, william parry smith a statement from the department of health stomach we want the nhs to be the safest place in the world to give birth. we launched the recent plan to reduce the number of stillbirth and brain injuries caused after birth by 2025. we have announced a large amount of money in training to ensure the nhs can provide world—class care for mothers and babies. does it go far enough?” and babies. does it go far enough?|j have and babies. does it go far enough?” have metjeremy hunt and he founded last year 8 bidding pounds towards maternity training. that was a very welcome. —— £8 billion. they have

funded some training and we have seen a big uptake in training and good results this year. without further funding we will not see the decline in injuries and deaths that we wish. thank you ray madge. thank you for talking to us. we appreciate it. -- you for talking to us. we appreciate it. —— thank you very much. a cabinet meeting right now expected to say yes to a third runway at heathrow. that does not mean it will necessarily go ahead. there is a long way to go. andrew says, watching trains stack over central london, getting ready to land and doing that runway approaches scares the life out of me. it is a major accident waiting to happen. i be any person thinking it is crazy? i have worked at heathrow for 20 years and it is busting at the seams. bringing ina third it is busting at the seams. bringing in a third runway means even more

jobs. politicians voting for a third ru nway jobs. politicians voting for a third runway at heathrow do not live anywhere near it. the traffic will be terrible and so will the pollution. it is a further assault on the environment and my sleep. i lived in chiswick and the planes start at 4am, sometimes earlier, despite promises from heathrow. how do you want your mp to vote, when it comes to this vote, which will happen on a third runway at heathrow stomach do let me know. you'll be interesting to hear your comments. you can message me on twitter and there is also whatsapp and facebook. michael mcintyre has been robbed in a terrifying hammer attack by two men on mopeds. he was on the school run in north west london collecting his children. tell

usa us a bit more about what happened? the incident happened at to o'clock in golders green in london. he was collecting his children from school. his publicist says there was an incident and everything is all right. we got a statement from the police confirming the incident. they say the victim was stationary in his car when two males and it had smashed the windows before stealing property. they say no arrests have been made. then the eyewitness account of what happened. there is video available we may be able to see. can see the driver ‘s side window is smashed. apparently it was hit ten, 15 times with a hammer. mr mcintyre got out. there may have been a struggle with a second man on mopeds and property was stolen. perhaps a very expensive watch, we

do not know. witnesses say it all happened in 30 seconds and then the gang were away. m, can tie is an enormously successful comedian with his own saturday night show. —— michael mcintyre. let's see him performing at the royal variety show. i hope it goes better than the la st show. i hope it goes better than the last time i performed comedy for prince charles. i went out and raised my arms aloft. i spent the entire performance thinking i was completely stalling the gig. michael mcintyre in happier times. was this a targeted attack? did they know it was michael mcintyre in the card? we do not know. he was in a relatively affluent do not know. he was in a relatively afflu e nt pa rt do not know. he was in a relatively

affluent pa rt of do not know. he was in a relatively affluent part of london in a nice car. maybe they simply targeted him for that reason. we do not know. the police call this mopeds enabled crime and it is too is a huge problem, especially in the capital. —— and it is a huge problem. police say the numbers have been going down recently and they are on top of it. it is happening to ordinary people hundreds of times every day in the capital. as you say, he was ok, he was just capital. as you say, he was ok, he wasjust shaken. his publicists say he is all right. police confirmed there were no injuries. this e—mail from a viewer saying, i have witnessed mopeds rubbing on two second occasions in oxford circus in central london, a shopping street on a very busy day. i called the police and they said to me it is such a high frequency crime they cannot do

much about it. people get robbed everyday but it seems the police ca re any because everyday but it seems the police care any because michael is famous stomach everyone else is left to figure things out for themselves. christine in kent says mopeds crime in the capital is out of control. if i make in the capital is out of control. if imake an in the capital is out of control. if i make an incorrect right turn, a fine with a picture of my face comes through at the drop they had. i thought we had more cctv than anywhere in the world. it seems they are using it to target the normal man and not the criminals. mark says, michael mcintyre, to lawless london. thank you. reporting on michael mcintyre who was robbed sitting outside his children prospects go yesterday. still to come... we hearfrom a woman who at the age of 14 learned a shocking secret — her mother had tried to abort her. now melissa 0hden and her birth mother have been reunited. and we will be talking about the football supporters banned from attending the world cup and ordered to hand in their passports. they say they are england football

supporters. time for the latest news — here's joanna gosling. the bbc news headlines this morning. the announcement on heathrow is expected a little later, it will be a controversial decision which has been long—awaited. donnison reports. heathrow is already one of the world's busiest airports. the debate over whether it should be even bigger, with a third runway, has been going on for decades. it's long divided opinion, not just amongst the public, but also within the cabinet. we believe a third runway for heathrow is the best option for ourfuture, it's the best for the whole country to create better connectivity to the different regions of the united kingdom, and to provide the best trade links to the world. but that's a far cry from the foreign secretary,

boris johnson, who once offered this pledge to heathrow expansion protesters. i will lie down with you in front of those bulldozers and stop the building, stop the construction of that third runway. heathrow‘s owners say a third runway would cost around £14 billion, but would increase capacity from 85 million to 130 million passengers a year. the plans are expected to get cabinet approval today. the government then faces the trickier task of getting them through parliament. and even if they do, heathrow expansion could still be challenged in the courts. jon donnison, bbc news. rescue teams in guatemala are continuing to search for dozens of missing people, after the country's most violent volcanic eruption in more than a century. hot rock, ash and mud flung from the fuego volcano have engulfed surrounding villages, forcing thousands from their homes. at least 69 people have died. the cost of petrol rose last

month at the fastest rate for 18 years. figures show that rising global oil prices helped put up fuel costs by nearly 6p a litre in may, with the average price of petrol reaching 129.4p a litre. the head of road policy at the rac, who compiled the figures, said a weaker pound had also contributed to the rise at the pumps. the cause of this has been as a result of a double whammy, effectively. we have seen the cost of the barrel of oil go above $80 in may, what we have also seen as the weakening of the pound. that double whammy as oil is traded in dollars means wholesale costs have increased, translating to higher prices at the pumps for drivers. a manhunt is under way after a woman and toddler were stabbed in west london. the woman in her 30s and a one—year—old boy were found suffering stab injuries at a residential address

in the london borough of hounslow. metropolitan police say the boy remains in a critical condition, while the woman's injures are not life threatening. that's a summary of the latest bbc news. weldon, joanna. your first story was not visible, i know. she a professional! here's some sport now with tim hague. the liverpool goalkeeper loris karius was concussed during the champions league final. you'll remember he made a couple of big mistakes. doctors in america say it's possible that injury would have affected his performace. in an antonishing interview, ex manchester city midfielder yaya toure claims his former boss pep guardiola "often has problems with africans". the government's going to look again at its stance on safe standing at football grounds. it's currently banned in the premier league and championship, but some clubs and lots of fans want the law to be changed. and injury has forced serena williams out of the french open. she withdrew yesterday

before herfourth round match with maria sharapova, but hopes to be fit for wimbledon next month. the big one. already looking for to that. see you just 10am. the big one. already looking for to that. see youjust10am. —— the big one. already looking for to that. see you just 10am. —— already looking forward to that. 10,000 england supporters are expected to travel to the world cup which begins in russia injust nine days' time but hundreds of football hooligans have been warned they have to hand in their passports by today. 1,750 supporters are banned from attending the tournament — they've been warned they'll face arrest if they miss today's deadline, while the met has announced an increased presence at major london airports. let's talk to ally simcock from the football supporters' federation. she is going to russia as part of the english fans embassy to support fans when they arrive in russia. also with us is ron hogg, police and crime commissioner for durham and former police officer who led the english police unit tackling football hooliganism injapan and south korea for the 2002 fifa world cup. ron thinks these travel bans are a great deterrent

for disruptive fans. as far as as farasi as far as i recall, ron, there was no hooliganism that. it was too far—away. and in moscow we have our correspondent sarah rainsford. we will ask her about a russian police tactics when it comes to dealing with hooligans in a moment. firstly, ally, do football banning orders work? yes. explain how? the process of buying tickets is really difficult for major tournaments like the world cup. there are lots of levels you need to go through to get a ticket in the first place. not only do you need your passport, you need to be a member of the england travel supporters club which allows you to become a member fifa, which allows you to apply for a russian fan ide. these things need to be in place before you can buy tickets, they will check these things when

you get there. anybody bands from a football match under a local football match under a local football banning order will not be able to get anywhere near the games in russia. you have spoken to some england supporters that have been banned, what do they say? most england football supporters that have been banned are not bothered about missing the russian world cup, they do not see it as necessarily a big event and they feel they are not missing anything by not going. russia is portrayed in such a negative way at the moment in the press anyway, it has brought it down for many people. 10,000 england fans have bought tickets, that is an awful lot less than the amount we have taken to other world cups. i think people are voting with their feet. demand for tickets is lower than previously, only one thing than's with games selling out its fa allocation. sarah rainsford in

moscow, how will the russian police deal with trouble from away fans or their own ultra—supporters? it is interesting, there has been a complete change in the language you have heard in moscow, compared to two years ago, the euros and france when there was a very serious violence in marseille. lots of officials in russia laughed it off and seem to be quite proud even of the russian hooligans who took on and fought with english fans and hooligans in marseille in particular. after that, if any light—hearted response, as if russia was not the host country for the world cup. recently we have seen a lot of change, tough talking pretty tough tactics. we know for a fact that those known troublemakers are also on a blacklist, essentially similarto also on a blacklist, essentially similar to the banning orders in the uk. there is a fan ide system and anybody who is a known hooligan will not get a fan ide, therefore they

can go to the stadiums themselves. above and beyond that, i spoke to one man who is the leader of a fan clu b one man who is the leader of a fan club of one northern russian city and he said he himself had been called in by the police and given an official warning, as he described it, and told he would not be allowed to cause trouble around the world cup and was warned a very dire consequences if he did. that is the message the fans here and particularly the troublemakers, the hooligans and those who might think of causing trouble, the message they are getting from police and politicians, that this is a world cup that vladimir putin really wants to go smoothly. interesting. ron hogg, deron police and crime commissioner, former officer working with the unit fighting football hooliganism in the 2002 fifa world cup,japan and hooliganism in the 2002 fifa world cup, japan and south korea was so far—away that not many people went. there were not problems hooliganism.

—— durham police and crime commissioner. but what intelligence to the police use in issuing bands, i have heard stories that one person was banned for throwing a mint at a game. i have not seen that. we had ten or12,000 fans game. i have not seen that. we had ten or 12,000 fans at japan and korea, about the same is going to russia. it was a real success and the orders help that. to obtain a ballot has to go through a court, either based on a football related conviction. —— to obtain a ban. the story about the chapter throwing a mint, ido story about the chapter throwing a mint, i do not know the circumstances. i found a very frustrating when i was doing the job, i found certain offences were not being convicted correctly. 0ne of my concerns, not being convicted correctly. 0ne of my concerns, we not being convicted correctly. 0ne of my concerns, we have seen the numberof banning of my concerns, we have seen the number of banning orders reduce quite dramatically. i think we might be losing your skype line, wrong, so

i willjust be losing your skype line, wrong, so i will just pause be losing your skype line, wrong, so i willjust pause talking to you and go back to ally, it is really difficult to hear you. so sorry, maybe we can re—establish, we are good at persisting that these things. ally, iwonder what good at persisting that these things. ally, i wonder what advice the football supporters' federation is giving to the 10,000 intending to travel? we have produced a 156 page booklet called the three lions, we have sent it in the post, it is available online and will be given out in russia, it has everything you could imagine from where to go for medical help to what kind of things you need to take with you, what you can take with you. we advise people to be sensible and the same as you would in any other country. there have been lots of stories in the press about flags recently but the same as you would if you were here, if you were in a london pub and buying alcohol and singing songs and putting up your flags, buying alcohol and singing songs and putting up yourflags, i am pretty sure if you are spending your money

you would not mind, but you would not hang it on the cenotaph in whitehall. be sensitive to people's cultures and just be careful, the same as you would anywhere else. sarah, i know you have been spending some time with some england france and russia, i do not know if they live there or have got there early. how are they getting on? not many have come out for the world cup specifically, but when some of the english clubs have been held here to play in recent months it has been interesting. vladimir putin wants this to go well, that message has been going through the ranks, i think. there have been all sorts of pr campaigns, people meeting foot ball pr campaigns, people meeting football fans from english clubs with t—shirts saying gentle fans and handing out blankets and really trying to send this counter message from russia that there was trouble in marseille, it was extremely serious but this is a world cup that russia wants the world to come to, particularly because the politics around all this are so terrible at

the moment for russia, it really hopes to improve its image and does not want hooliganism as one key thing to mar what it hopes would be a very good world cup. thank you very much, sarah rainsford in moscow. a quick final words from ally, in terms of the football and england fa ns' expectations, ally, in terms of the football and england fans' expectations, does it feel free because no fan has any expectation? absolutely, we have been booking to stay for as long as england the world cup, we will be out there for the duration, we do not know of that will be three weeks five. but i think anything past the group stages will be about. expect the coming of the programme, ally simcock from the football supporters association, sarah rainsford, our correspondent in moscow, and ron hogg, the police and crime commissionerfor hogg, the police and crime commissioner for durham and hogg, the police and crime commissionerfor durham and a hogg, the police and crime commissioner for durham and a former police officer. coming up... the couple making paddleboards out of rubbish to highlight the blight of plastic pollution on our waterways. and there is the paddle board. they

have used that to get across vast oceans, iam have used that to get across vast oceans, i am told. we will speak to them between ten and 10:30am. thank you for your many comments about heathrow, it is exercising you. michael edwin has e—mailed, it is all wrong. borisjohnson had the best proposal by far, a purpose—built well—organised airport in the thames estuary is a farseeing idea. bill in tunbridge wells, under one of the gatwick flight paths, and extra runway for heathrow was a wonderful idea,!. beth in camberley, heathrow should not be expanded as what is currently their causes chaos. if they want to add a runway they need to sort out the traffic bottleneck on the m25. someone who did not leave their name writes what a line party the conservatives are, they pledge no third runway at heathrow, this is a ridiculous plan. —— what a lie in

party. i think it was in the conservative manifesto, i will check that. when melissa 0hden was 14 years old she learnt a shocking secret — she was the survivor of a failed abortion. in 1977, melissa's19—year—old mother had left hospital in the united states, believing the toxic saline solution she'd been given over a five—day period when she was eight months pregnant had aborted her child. she thought her daughter had been delivered stillborn but the abortion had failed — and melissa's mother had no idea her daughter had survived. melissa was adopted, but after learning about her traumatic start to life she spent nearly two decades searching for her biological mother, who she learned had never wanted a termination in the first place. i grew up knowing i had been born prematurely. i grew up knowing i was adopted. what i didn't know of course was there was this great secret behind all of this. and so what i learned was that my

19—year—old birth mother, as a college student, had a saline infusion abortion and that type of procedure was meant to poison me to death. and of course the final step of the procedure was that i should have been delivered dead and instead i was actually born alive. and in the midst of that there was a struggle about whether medical care would be provided to me. ultimately a nurse rushed me off to the neonatal intensive care unit where medical care ultimately sustained my life. and you, from your investigations, you were effectively discarded as medical waste. but you were making a noise, there were weak cries as i understand it which is when the nurse, or a nurse was prompted to take you to intensive care? yeah, my parents had heard about a couple of nurses over the years and we know for sure that there's one particular

nurse that rushed me off. and we'll maybe never know how many nurses played a part in all of this happening but what we do know is that at that hospital where babies were actuated in the utility closet, if they survived abortions. —— babies were actually put in the utility closet. that is where they were typically left to die. i will probably never know if i made it to that utility closet. but what i'm grateful to know is that those nurses were willing to fight for me that day. and you were just under three lbs, i think, you weighed just under three lbs, and presumably most medical professionals would have predicted that you either wouldn't live for a very long, or if you did survive you would have disabilities? definitely, that was the prognosis. thankfully i've defied the odds time and time again. like many premature infants i suffered from severe respiratory and liver problems. i suffered from seizures for a period of time. there were a few mistakes made

in my care and the doctors actually thought i would be blind. they also thought i had a fatal heart defect. but once again, you know, as the days passed on they continued to be surprised by the progress that i'd made and now i am a perfectly healthy adult today. which is astonishing, isn't it? it is astonishing, i pinch myself some days. it often feels like i'm talking about someone else. you were 14 when you began to learn about your traumatic start in life. how did it affect you when you found this out? it affected me in a huge way. i don't think anybody‘s ever prepared for this kind of news. and to be 14 and really just struggling with who i was in the first place, this news was absolutely devastating. so not long after i learned the truth about my life i really turned my pain upon myself, so developed an eating disorder. struggled with alcohol abuse.

poor dating relationships. didn't want to be me, in all honesty. i had never heard of anyone like me, years ago. of course now i know there are many survivors like me. but back then it was a really lonely, painful place to be. and how did you find out? my parents ended up having to tell me. it was really a complete mistake. my older sister became pregnant and was considering an abortion. and so my parents had told her about my survival so that she would understand the consequences of all the decisions she was considering. so my sister actually let it slip to me in the middle of an argument. she actually yelled out to me, she said, "you know, melissa, at least my biological parents wanted me." and i couldn't understand those words. and she's the one who actually

encouraged me to approach our parents that night for the truth about my life. and i never saw that kind of news coming. you decided to try to trace your birth family at 19. so you wanted to find the woman who had tried to abort you all those years earlier. it was, it was complex, it was tricky. tell me about when you first made contact with your birth mother? it was complex. it took me over ten years to find them. my biological mother and i didn't finally connect until a little over five years ago now. and what i learned through that experience is that there were even more secrets about my survival that i didn't know. and my adoptive parents didn't know. and the biggest secret, truly, is that my birth mother had spent over 30 years of her life believing that i had died that day. at the hospital.

she was not told that i survived. it was kept a secret from her. i was placed for adoption without her ever knowing. she never knew if it was a little boy or a little girl she had delivered in that abortion. and she had lived with such incredible regret and heartache. and so we started to communicate by e—mail about five years ago. and shared information, built walls of trust and love with one another before we met face—to—face for the first time about two years ago now. and what was that like? absolutely surreal. it's one of those things that is hard to really describe to people, except, i don't know if you've ever been in the midst of an experience and you know that it was meant to be that way and that it, it's just one of those defining moments of your life. i will never forget meeting her. and seeing her pain. her pain haunted me for a very long time after that. but now i get to also

experience herjoy. when we moved to kansas city, which is where we live here in the united states, when we moved here five years ago, what we didn't know is that my birth mother actually lives in this very city. so it's allowed us to forge this relationship. we connect on a regular basis, we see each other as often as we possibly can. one of my half sisters lives here also with her children and so now my biological family is a huge part of my life. you also learned that, because your mother told you, that she was put in a position of feeling forced to abort you. tell us about that. yeah, my adoptive parents had been told of course that simply that the abortion had occurred. that every belief was that it was my biological mother's choice to do so. but through conversation with her what i learned

is that my grandmother, her mother, was a prominent nurse in their community, and that the local abortionist was a friend of hers and owed her some big favour, and so together my grandmother and the abortionist literally forced the abortion upon my birth mother against her will. i mean is that possible? do you believe that? i do. knowing what i do about my grandmother and that abortionist. they simply were able to bypass the hospital regulations and procedures at the time that my birth mother would have had to go through and so people at the hospital simply thought it was her choice. and she had no opportunity to fight back. you also found out that your grandmother, who was a nurse at that hospital, had apparently instructed other people that day, when you were aborted to, quote, "leave the baby in the room to die". that's a tough one.

it really is. i know that's a tough thing for people to hear and that's not been easy for me to live with either. but my grandmother is actually the one who was honest about that, with other family members. this was not something that she wanted to have happen, for me to continue to live. and that's also why i was rushed off to the nicu that day, is because those nurses who fought for me believed that they were literally saving my life once again. what are your feelings now towards your biological mother and towards that grandmother? i love my biological mother. i think i'm one of the luckiest people in the world. to not only be alive and have my adoptive parents but now have my biological mother and so many of herfamily involved in my life. in terms of my grandmother, as much as it's hard

knowledge for me to live with about the decision she made about my life, i'm not angry with her. and i don't hate her. you know, we all make mistakes in this life. i make them every single day. and so i don't hold that against her. my heart breaks for her because i will probably always wonder what it was in her life that led her to those kind of decisions about mine. thank you so much for talking to us, we really appreciate your time. thank you for coming on to our programme. thank you so much. and to find out more about melissa's story — there is a long article on the news website and her book is out now. some messages from you, luke walton says horrendous, what a remarkable young woman. spring on twitter says

cheshire sent by dawn. the cloud has extended overnight from the north sea across much of the uk. it is already breaking from the north, some of us are seeing sunshine. if you have an allergy to grass pollen, you have an allergy to grass pollen, you can expect these levels today. high or very high across most of england and all of wales. northern england, scotland and northern ireland, low or moderate. high pressure firmly in charge, a north—easterly breeze across the northern isles and the english channel in particular and you can see how the cloud starts to push back towards the north sea coast, where it will remain for much of the day. it will feel cooler for you. brightening up in scotland and it will continue to do so. parts of north—west scotland could hit about 20 celsius, as we could see across north—western parts of northern ireland. in northern ireland that showers could be sharp. the remnants of this morning plasma cloud across parts of south wales, the midlands and some

southern counties across the south—west of england. for the channel islands, looking at 12 macro showers, grey and cloudy. temperatures lower than yesterday. in porthmadog they will be a lot lower than yesterday when they hit 26.6 celsius. this evening we will have early evening sunshine, overnight more cloud comes in from the north sea and pushes across many areas. we will hang on to the cloud across the channel islands, south—west england tom parton south wales. towards the west we will have the highest overnight lows, in the east you can see how many of us will have a cooler night that last night, back into single figures. tomorrow starts with this cloud from the north sea, extending through parts of southern scotland, northern england and towards the north midlands, possibly norfolk. you will hang onto that and it will be thick enough here and there to produce drizzle. after a cloudy day in the south today it will be sunny tomorrow, temperatures that bit

higher but we are still at risk of a shower or two across the channel islands, as across northern ireland. into scotland, once again we are looking brighter conditions. 0n thursday a high of catching a shower across southern england and south wales, it will be fairly cloudy here too and we look cloud coming in from the north sea. sunshine for the rest of the uk. it's tuesday, it's 10 o'clock, i'm victoria derbyshire. ministers are meeting to discuss long—running plans for the expansion of heathrow airport. the cabinet is expected to back it later today but will it actually go ahead? this is a massively expensive and polluting proposal to expand heathrow. i think people would prefer a regional airport strategy with the connections they need on their doorstep instead of having to go hundreds of miles to travel to

london and then fly out from heathrow airport. it is a 20th—century strategy in a 21st—ce ntu ry 20th—century strategy in a 21st—century point—to—point world. do you live near heathrow airport? will you be affected? maybe you work there? do let us know your views. we'll be discussing it at 10:30am. a law normally used for protecting the country against terrorism is instead being used to force skilled migrants working here in a professional capacity to leave the country because of a mistake in their tax return. it was absolutely horrendous. it literally made me feel like a criminal, as if i had done some criminal, as if i had done some criminal activity. we will hear more from the nhs physio forced to go back to india in the next hour. the couple making paddleboards out of plastic bottles and using them

get in touch by e—mail, facebook, twitter, whatsapp. what else is there? i think i have said the mole, haven't i? anyway, it is all there. now the sport. we all remember the two mistakes by karius in the champions league finals and it now transpires that the double goalkeeper was concussed during the match with real madrid. we think it might have happened when he collided with sergio ramos. doctors have said it is possible the injury affected his performance. i have been speaking to a former rugby international and an expert on the issue of concussion. a fascinating story and another chapter in the history of concussion. i have seen the incident and there is no doubt

that the goalkeeper took an impact which produced both rotational and vertical forces causing concussion. whether it did not in that case, i do not know. it is certainly feasible. this is a big problem with concussion. it might have caused concussion. it might have caused concussion in this player but another one it might not. the symptoms might have come on straightaway but they might have come on later. it seems that is what happened. would this have interacted his performance? the two mistakes we re his performance? the two mistakes were particularly bad. absolutely. they were crucial and calamitous. it is hard to estimate the cost personally and financially for everybody and particularly for this goalkeeper. it is very important to realise it may well have been as a

result of the player being concussed. the point is, it was probably not seen by the medical team, it all happened so quickly. they may not have spotted it. had they come on and examined him they might not have spotted anything at that stage. symptoms might have come on later. concussion is a terrible quandary and we need to be very careful with it. this is why i have a lwa ys careful with it. this is why i have always said that any sign or symptom, that player must come off and stay up because the signs and symptoms can develop a little bit later. it looks as if that may have happened with this player. fascinating stuff. the former manchester city midfielder yaya toure has been hugely critical of his old boss, pep guardiola, suggesting he often has problems with africans. a load of other astonishing quotes from yaya toure in an interview he has given saying quite yellow was cruel to him. temp

clause normally used for protecting the country against terrorism. the home secretary admitted last week that 19 people had been forced to leave the country because of clause 3225 rule of the immigration act. up to a thousand more people could be affected. i've been speaking to one nhs physio who was sent back to kashmir in india — he said it's made him feel "like a criminal." also aditi bjardwag, who is from high skilled migrants — the group that support migrants affected by this controversial clause and who are taking part in the protest today; and labour mp stephen doughty is part of the home affairs select committee that sajid javid announced the review to last week. first avais kawos explained what happened to him: no specific reason given

in my refusal letter. all they mentioned is that this act has been tied against your name. the only reason that they have given, the brief reason that they have given, is because my accountant made a mistake on my tax. he amended it three months before. hmrc got it rectified but, because the records that the home office uses while they check our applications is not the updated version, they could not see all the amendments, and that was the reason. they told me that because the figures that were in their system were not the ones that i had provided them, that was the reason they refused my application. it was all because of the mistake of an accountant. and so, effectively, you tried to get a judicial review but, in the end, you, your wife, your son and your daughter were escorted to an airport and out of the country. absolutely, yes. we applied in february 2016 for indefinite leave to remain. by august 2017, all my resources,

financial resources, finished. i could not survive any more beyond that. so, what i did, our passports were held by the home office from february 2016 till the date we left heathrow airport. 0n the day that we left from the uk we were literally escorted by an agent or a member of staff from the home office who gave us the passport. he made sure that we were actually boarding the plane and we were not coming back into the country. how did this make you and your family feel? it was absolutely horrendous. it literally made me feel like a criminal, as if i had done some criminal activity. and, just for the record, are you a terrorist? i am not, absolutely nothing. i haven't done anything at all that is illegal or anything. during my ten years

of living in the united kingdom there is nothing against me except for three points on my licence, that is all, for speeding. now you have this clause, which is used for terrorism purposes, against your name on your passport. absolutely, yes. i can't go anywhere, as i was reading through a few newspapers a few days ago. once you have this 322 clause against your name, you cannot go to any country because it will come up their system as well that this person has been a terrorist threat to the united kingdom. i am going to bring in someone from an organisation called high skilled migrants. this is a group that support migrants who have been affected by this clause. so, we heard there it was to do with a tax discrepancy, which really simply could have been sorted out.

how do you react to what is going on? i am absolutely appalled. there are more than about 600 to 1000 people who are actually affected in this whole tax discrepancy clause and being refused with 322—5 which was initially an initiative being made for travel brands, criminality and obviously national—security threat. you know the home secretary has announced he is reviewing applications that are pending. why do you need to protest today? obviously they have put a pause on the applications which could potentially be refused but there are people, obviously, who do not know, who have already been refused who do not have access to the nhs, who do not have work rights in the country and they have families and it is hard for them to survive in the uk with this sort

of environment and the expenses these guys have to bear for the legal expense side as well. stephen doughty, a review is going on. does that go far enough? no. i think it shows up the big problems we are seeing in the home office, that we are seeing through the windrush case, and we are now seeing in this horrendous case. this is a totally inappropriate rule being applied in a disproportionate way which has huge impacts on people. then you have a home office that simply does not have the resources or the discretion to take common—sense decisions. can you see how it has happened question can you see why these people have been flagged because of tax discrepancies? you might argue it is a good thing that people are flagged in this way. you would think so but the reality is that the home office and hmrc and sharing this information properly. they have described an initiative that was dealt with, a very minor matter, which the home office is not picking up and they are taking the most extreme action and effectively labelling someone as a criminal and terrorist for what is essentially an administrative error. it has all the implications for the family and life going on, notjust leaving the uk but that

will stay with them for the rest of their lives. it is that kind of computer says no approach, the complete lack of humility that we see in so many aspects of the home office separations. the home office says we know the 19 people have been forced to leave the country under this rule. could it be more? yes, absolutely. much more? we think maybe 1000 people potentially involved, possibly even more. that have already been forced to leave? that have been affected by this decision, but certainly significant numbers forced to leave. tell our audience how you lived in britain, what you contributed to the economy, and what you want to do now? i came in as a student in 2007 and did my masters. after that ijoined... i am a physiotherapist by profession. i worked through my career there since the start of 2009 since the start of 2016, i worked as a specialist physiotherapist in various nhs trusts. my contribution was i was with the elderly care, so i used to see around seven to eight elderly patients every day throughout these seven or eight

years i worked there. my contribution was to help them get back to a normal life, preventing hospital admissions, and basically maintaining their lifestyle, helping geriatric, which is a tremendous proposition at the moment in the united kingdom. —— population. are you now calling on the home secretary to allow you back, to continue working and living here? i would request, that would be my humble request, to sort out these 1000—plus cases, and to possibly bring an end to this hostile environment that has been created, because of a possibly nonsense thing that has been done against our name. it was dealt with before hand. it is not illegal in any country in this

whole world, to make any changes in your income towards the hmrc. because the home office, i don't know, under what? under whose instructions? they are trying to cut numbers and we were the easiest targets. once a person has an ilr, they can apply for citizenship within a year. this was like a gateway. ilr meaning indefinite leave to remain. do you buy that? very much. it seems the home office has gone after what we have termed low hanging fruit. and what is the situation we will have with this policy, a hostile environment? in terms of the numbers of cases i have seen who have been locked up for immigration removal, looking at the windrush case, this is driven by... policy. specifically about these cases, where there have been tax

discrepancies, are you effectively accusing the home office of using that as a convenient way getting people out of the country? when you have a hostile environment policy, and you are driving that down with this artificial net migration target, and the targets we now know did exist for removals and the home office denied they existed, and we found out that they did. and then you have staff who are having all their discretion removed from them, they were being forced to take these decisions. then you end up with absurd decisions like this we have seen. we know the immigration minister knew about the taxes as far back as february this year. with things like windrush and individual cases coming forward, investigative journalism and then we are realising. the home office did not put the dots together and realised there was a systematic problem. that shows there is something very wrong in that department. do you agree? i agree. i agree with that. what do you want to see happen now? i want these guys to have justice. they have already been struggling for almost two and a half years. their lives are in limbo. all the taxes have been paid. whatever the mistake

was, whether it was personal or an accountant, they were all legitimate or legitimately corrected within the hmrc guidelines. none of them have been fined and the taxes have been paid into the economy, so why should they be thrown out of the country? thank you very much. thank you for coming onto the programme. we appreciate it and will continue to report on the case. still to come more on your views about the expansion of heathrow. we will talk about the controversial plans of introducing a third runway at heathrow. will be talking to justine greening, conservative mp for putney, who is very much against the third runway and a labour mp for nottingham who is in favour of expansion at heathrow. the united nations says less than 10% of the plastic ever made has been recycled. according to the un report up to 5 trillion plastic bags are used worldwide each year,

with china the biggest source of plastic packaging waste and the united states producing the most per person. we are about to meet two people who have gone further than most to spread the message that we need to tackle plastic pollution. carlos de sousa and carolyn newton have travelled the world to educate school children about throwaway single use plastic. now they are now training for a new challenge. 0ur reporter, rick kelsey, went to meet them. as people worldwide are encouraged to quit throwaway food and drink plastic for just a day, a couple who quit theirjob as teachers to travel the world doing 12 marathons in 12 different countries on nothing but a stand—up paddle board, made of reusable plastic, are taking on their next challenge here on the thames. so, the plan is to go from source to sea in 17 days. that's right, yes.

so, we'll start at a navigable source, which is lechlade, and then it's nearly 300 kilometres out to gravesend, which is the sea, orjust beyond. so, what made you do this, carlos? the challenge. and show everyone that it is possible to use waste material as a resource. and it is notjust a case ofjust paddling the whole way down on these boards. you're actually going to be stopping, speaking to schoolkids the whole way down. that is correct. the main idea is to bring kids closer to the water, being with nature, and sharing a little bit of our expedition. bringing more kids to protect nature. being on the water. and they'll give us their messages which we will deliver to parliament on the 26th ofjune. so, we've arranged with government that we will collect these messages from the kids because it is their future as well and the world that we are leaving them. so, we need to hearfrom them.

plastic is such a big issue at the moment and people are talking about a lot more than they were even six months ago but most people don't go to this sort of extreme. how did it come to this? well, we built a board in brazil, just over a year ago, and when we took it to the beach, we couldn't believe what an incredible reaction we got. and it was such a good start to conversation about plastic pollution in the water. we realised then this had an impact and that is what we wanted to do. we wanted to inspire people to change their habits because we can all do something. these are two boards just over three metres long. how did you put them together? with a special glue. it is a carpenters' glue you can find in any store. the main idea is to burn and fill all the seals and make a really good board actually. what has been the reaction? you mentioned brazil. what has been the reaction

in different places when they have seen you coming down a river on this? the first thing is, does it float, people get confused if it really works. and when you say we did 12 marathons on the board, it really works, it is really inspiring for people to take a chance to do something different. you can make an instrument or something else with any waste material. we decided to make boards. now carolyn, carlos and their boat are here with us now. it will take 17 days. where will you sleep? we are going to camp, at the side of the tens mostly. some people have offered accommodation as well, which has been great. -- the river thames. it is pretty sturdy, isn't it? you would not expect it to be. with the glue. we pumped the bottles with care. how many children's minds do

you think you have transformed by the way you talk about your challenge? that is tough. we went to three schools and we spoke to children. we had about 200 children help us build the big board, the expedition board. already we have inspired a few children and we are stopping to talk to about six or seven schools along the way. hopefully a few thousand children. why do you feel so passionately about this? nature is a special place to be. in the city we do not have the real value for the experience to relax and get connected with ourselves. being outside on the water is a great possibility to do it. where are you from? from brazil. i enjoy being

outside. presumably brazilians are just as bad when it comes to single use plastic as we are? they are terrible. the only thing we recycle a lot is because poverty is quite big so people get them to resell. it does not work well because it comes from poverty. why is it important to get it through to the youngest generation? children have the biggest influence. their parents make changes. it is their future. we need to think about design. it is taking a waste material in abundance and turning it into a resource. it is getting children to think creatively and innovatively about solutions to the problem of plastic. we need to think about the full life

cycle of a product and. that is what we hope to inspire children to do, when we take a plastic bottle. mac we have turned it into a paddle board but children can come up with their own ideas. to quit yourjob is as teachers is quite a big deal, how are you affording to survive? we are not really. we are getting by. generosity from other people. we are setting out our company as a charity. hopefully there will be parts of funding to apply for, to ta ke parts of funding to apply for, to take it forwards. what do you say to people who say, the problem is so overwhelming, because it is. what difference can me and my house really make? everyone can have a huge impact. it is the little changes. it is using alternatives.

when you go to the supermarket, leave some of the plastic behind. we need to let the supermarket and the government know exactly that we do not need this plastic. it does not make sense to use something that is indestructible and lasts forever for a few minutes, so we can all make a change. when are you getting married? i very personal question. hopefully next year. good luck with this. good luck. thank you for your comments on heathrow. christophe says... remember back to how much eve ryo ne says... remember back to how much everyone was objecting to the m25, now essential to our infrastructure. paris, amsterdam and frankfurt or have much larger airports than london. the noise and possible air pollution will be no different with

a third runway. noise and pollution levels are massively down from the past as a aircraft engine design has improved over the years. john hartley in chippenham says a third ru nway hartley in chippenham says a third runway at heathrow will be newman to our failure runway at heathrow will be newman to ourfailure over runway at heathrow will be newman to our failure over many years to develop an integrated transport policy. airports are the obvious choice for international travel but high—speed rail routes should have been sorted before hand. we will talk what you think of the plans for a third runway. still to come... a woman reunites with her mother after a failed abortion meant she survived the termination. how much do you use your smartphone and how much do your kids? apple has unveiled new features to help people control their phone use, sending users a weekly report on their screen time. time for the latest news.

here's joanna gosling. controversial plans for a third runway at heathrow airport are expected to be approved by ministers today, after years of argument and delay. in a matter of weeks mps could be asked to vote on the expansion which has faced fierce opposition from campaigners who say it will increase noise and breach limits on air pollution. rescue teams in guatemala are continuing to search for dozens of missing people, after the country's most violent volcanic eruption in more than a century. hot rock, ash and mud flung from the fuego volcano have engulfed surrounding villages, forcing thousands from their homes. at least 69 people have died. the cost of petrol rose last month at the fastest rate for 18 years. figures from the rac show that rising global oil prices helped put up fuel costs by nearly 6p a litre in may, with the average price of petrol reaching 129.4p a litre. police in ireland say a 30—year—old man has died after a shooting at a boxing club

he said plenty of other things in the interview as well. the government will look again at introducing safe standing at football grounds. it's currently banned in the premier league and championship, but some clubs and many fans want the law to be changed. and there will be no french open for serena williams this year. she withdrew yesterday before her match with maria sharapova because of injury, but hopes to be fit for wimbledon next month. i'll be back with more on the news channel throughout the morning. thank you, tim. melissa 0hden was 14 when she learned a shocking secret. she was the survivor of a failed abortion. in 1977, melissa's19—year—old mother had left the hospital in america, believing the toxic saline solution she'd been given over a five—day period when she was eight months pregnant had aborted her child. in fact, unbeknown to her, she'd delivered a baby that was still alive. melissa was adopted into a loving family, but after learning

about her unlikely birth, she spent nearly two decades searching for answers and discovered her guilt—ridden birth mother had not wanted to have the termination in the first place. melissa and her birth—mother have now been reunited. let's take a look now at what melissa says she felt when she first found out what had happened. it affected me any huge way. i don't think anybody‘s ever prepared for this kind of news. and to be 14 and really just struggling with who i was in the first place, this news was absolutely devastating. so not long after i learned the truth about my life i really turned my pain upon myself, so developed an eating disorder, struggled with alcohol abuse, poor dating relationships. didn't want to be me, in all honesty. i had never heard of anyone like me, years ago. of course, now i know there are many survivors like me. but back then it was a really lonely, painful place to be.

and how did you find out? my parents ended up having to tell me. it was really a complete mistake. my older sister became pregnant and was considering an abortion. and so my parents had told her about my survival so that she would understand the consequences of all the decisions that she was considering. so my sister actually let it slip to me in the middle of an argument. she actually yelled out to me, she said, "you know, melissa, at least my biological parents wanted me." and i couldn't understand those words. and she's the one who actually encouraged me to approach our parents that night for the truth about my life. and i never saw that kind of news coming. you decided to try to trace your birth family at 19. so you wanted to find the woman

who had tried to abort you all those years earlier. it was... it was complex, it was tricky. tell me about when you first made contact with your birth mother? it was complex. it took me over ten years to find them. my biological mother and i didn't finally connect until a little over five years ago now. and what i learned through that experience is that there were even more secrets about my survival that i didn't know, and my adoptive parents didn't know. and the biggest secret, truly, is that my birth mother had spent over 30 years of her life believing that i had died that day at the hospital. she was not told that i survived. it was kept a secret from her. i was placed for adoption without her ever knowing. she never knew if it was a little boy or a little girl she had delivered in that abortion. and she had lived with such

incredible regret and heartache. and so we started to communicate by e—mail about five years ago and shared information, built walls of trust and love with one another before we met face—to—face for the first time about two years ago now. and what was that like? absolutely surreal. it's one of those things that is hard to really describe to people, except, i don't know if you've ever been in the midst of an experience and you know that it was meant to be that way and that it... it's just one of those defining moments of your life. i will never forget meeting her, and seeing her pain. her pain haunted me for a very long time after that. but now i get to also experience herjoy. when we moved to kansas city, which is where we live here in the united states, when we moved here five years ago, what we didn't know is that my birth mother actually lives in this very same city.

so it's allowed us to forge this relationship. we connect on a regular basis, we see each other as often as we possibly can. one of my half sisters lives here also with her children and so now my biological family is a huge part of my life. and you can read more about melissa's incredible story by going to the bbc news website. let's talk about michael mcintyre. michael mcintyre has been robbed in a hammer attack by two men on mopeds. mr mcintyre was in his car outside his children's school in north west london at about 2pm yesterday when thugs smashed the windscreen of his parked car. these are images just afterwards you can see the car and broken window. you can see him in the background.

he's said to be fine. police are yet to make any arrests. presenter livvy haydock made a documentary for bbc three which gave an exclusive insight into moped crime gangs in britain. most thieves are teenage boys, operating in streets near where they live. and their favourite time to strike is evening rush hour. i'd arranged to meet mr x to find out what his story is. when did you start getting involved with what you're doing now? i know loads of people who are working in legitimate jobs and they are still struggling to feed their

family, pay rent and everything, but they don't go out and do that. so how would you justify what you do? livvyjoins me in the studio now. thank you for talking to us. how bad is this problem, particularly in the capital? just last year the met reported 23,000 motorcycle enabled crimes, which is an awful lot. and the impact on people? it is horrendous. i think lots of people who do not get her to feel stupid, they feel upset. there is insurance, it doesn't make you feel any better. you do not expect this kind of crime in london. i believe it was the crime of choice last year for young offenders. and that these mopeds leads, the

targets in some cases seem to be sitting ducks? i have seen videos of elderly women trying to fight them off. in some cases winning. what i would say is do not give them anything to steal, do not hold your phone out, do not have your valuables on display. i know it is awful because you do not expect that here, and things are changing, so for a while do not give them anything to steal. let it die down. mr mcintire sitting in his car probably wasn't thinking there was anything to steal. you don't. but the way of this particular crime, it isa the way of this particular crime, it is a quick and ruthless. having spoken to the gang members, they see it as so easy, i think that is the biggest problem. it is so easy, you see something, take it and you are gone. even with the new police tactics to pursue these criminals, it is hard for them. tell us more about those tactics and what you

learned from making your documentary into how the met police are trying to target these thieves? there are new motorbikes introduce that robert napier, if you like, that can pursue these youngsters on bikes —— that area these youngsters on bikes —— that are a lot more nippy, if you like. their best escape route is the traffic, pavements, nothing is off limits. from meeting them, if they see something, they will take it and see something, they will take it and see it as their pickings. it is terrible, you scare and hurts people. and yet they go ahead and do it anyway, it is over in a second for the criminals. what it leaves behind is trauma. it is not right. tell us about some of the victims that you met? i think the most horrendous one that i personally met was jabal hussain, a delivery driver. they wanted his motorbike,

they would use that for crimes. they didn't even stop and say to him can i have your bike, or i will take your bike, theyjust threw acid at him. when he was in such a state of pain and shock, they took his bike. he was a delivery guy, it was heartbreaking, his life has been destroyed and he is fearful to go out now because of this one incident by kids. what injuries did he sustain? luckily his visor was down, pure luck. the jacket he was wearing was burned horrendously. luckily people through so much water on him at the time that the scarring was not as bad as it probably would have been. there was another incident in greenwich where a gentleman was killed, he was coming outside the comedy club there, i think. he was shot. they were trying to take his watch. he tried to fight back, thought it was a joke at first, and

they killed him. thank you for coming on the programme, livvy. apple has unveiled new features to help people control how often they use their phones. announced at its annual worldwide developers conference last night in california, screen time will monitor how much you've been on your mobile and send you a report every week. there will also be a bedtime mode similar to do not disturb. the new features are to be available from autumn and are all intended to help improve our digital well—being. well, with me is our technology correspondent, rory cellan—jones. also, jack whitney, an it support engineer and — of course — a phone user, joined us from south wales. ——joins us —— joins us from south wales. hello. you can only get this on ios 12, you can only get this on ios12, correct? which comes out in the autumn. this was the big show where they got their software developers and they were previewing what was

coming out. they had a few new ideas, but there was an awful lot of focus on actually controlling the way you use your phone. i think they are having to respond to growing public disquiet, even some of the shareholders expressed concern about the addictive nature of smartphones. we as individuals worry about that, as parents we worry about that, there is a lot of pressure on the technology companies to give us more control. what will the features, the apps. control. what will the features, the apps, do? simple things like when you turn on do not disturb overnight, which of people do, i fail to turn it on the other night and got into trouble because my phone beeped in the middle of the night and woke the household, they will make that much easier, it will remove everything. so you do not wa ke remove everything. so you do not wake up and see lots of notifications and get to look. they will put in a new feature called screen time, where you can

find out how much time you're spending on all those different things, instagram, twitter, facebook and set limits saying i will not spend more than two alizadeh on instagram and so on. you will be able to do that for your children. you are already able, i am sure many people do not know, it is buried in the system, you are able to turn up certain things on a phone with a code. i know all about that, but i have been searching for an app to switch off the device so i do not have to have this friction every night where rates say time is up. i had to get my kids and ios 12 in order to do it? this is a software update, anybody with that kind of phone, other phones are available, android phones are available with this already. jack, what do you think? i think it will be really

fantastic for me. i am studying for my exams and it is any distraction to pick up my phone, scroll through facebook or twitter even if i have no important notifications, having that level of insight and seeing when i am using my phone might prompt me to go you are being silly, put it down and concentrate on more important things. do you had to set your own time limits? see how it is, i will probably set time limits. it is nicer user gets a nudge in the right direction. it is easy tojust scroll through facebook and 15 or 20 minutes have gone by and it feels like two minutes. it will be a really big benefit to many people. would you say you are addicted?” would not say addicted, i tend to fall back on its when there are things to do that on more important andl things to do that on more important and i use it as a destruction rather than an addiction, if that makes sense. how long would you spend scrolling through your phone each day? probably a couple of hours,

people often scroll through facebook and bed and do not go to sleep at a proper time. imagine what you could do if you were not doing that.” know x commission you could get all your revision done. i know, it is in bed and do not go to sleep at a proper time. imagine what you could do if you were not doing that.” know x, icher those you could get all your revision done. i know, it isn't and i need to work on. rory, where you going to show me something? i am completely addicted. asa something? i am completely addicted. as a technology correspondent, you are relatively. it is interesting the shareholders are making noises, and because they think it might affect profits if there is a backlash against the addiction? generally silicon valley, which has told us for years that technology is wonderful and will transform our lives, is having a wake—up call. we have seen the thing around facebook, now the focus is shifting to addiction and time spent on these devices and whether we need to be given more controls. i think the tech companies are trying to react before the backlash. jack, do you

think these tech companies have a responsibility to help us manage digital well—being, or is it down to the consumers? i think they do. i think it is easy for the consumer to be sucked in and be oblivious to the whole thing going on, i think they do. thank you both very much, cheers. a third runway at heathrow airport is expected to be approved by ministers today. mps will then be asked to vote within weeks. a commitment to expand heathrow was in the conservatives' election manifesto. the foreign secretary, borisjohnson — who represents a constituency which would be affected by the expansion — is among those vehemently opposed. this was his real election pledge.” will lie down with you in front of those bulldozers stop the construction of a third runway. and this was him this morning.

reporter: are you prepared to lie down in front of the bulldozers, foreign secretary?! say again, sir?! are you prepared to quit over heathrow expansion, sir? will you be lying down in front of the bulldozers at heathrow? jon ironmonger is at heathrow. for lots of people it will be a boost to the economy and create more jobs, but so many people live round there who are still against it? that is right. 0utput expansion has been a big political hot potato over the past two decades. successive governments have grappled with the idea, many ministers have accepted the economic imperative of increasing apple capacity in the south—east of england, but few have

focused all committed to a certain proposal —— of increasing airport capacity. if chris grayling gets the nod from kovtun he will suggest that commons should vote in expansion at heathrow. what would that look like? it will not happen behind me, it would be focused on the construction ofa would be focused on the construction of a third runway which would happen near harmondsworth, a village north—west of here. it will cost around £14 billion, it would deliver an estimated £74 billion to the economy. but it would flatten or at least partly flattened the village of harmondsworth, longford uncertain as part of its construction. clearly the locals that are fiercely opposed, they have campaigned vigorously for the past decade against these plans. some say they will not leave their homes at any cost whatsoever, so you have that backlash, and as you heard, you have

the likes of borisjohnson who said he would lie down in front of bulldozers before airport expansion got under way. any votes in the commons is likely to be fiercely debated, but if it passes heathrow is raring to go with this expansion and says it will begin construction by 2021, with the third runway possibly completed by 2025. thanks, jon. let's talk to justine greening, who's a conservative former transport secretary. her putney constituency is under the heathrow flightpath and she is against a third runway. labour's lilian greenwood chairs the house of commons transport select committee. she represents nottingham south and is in favour of heathrow expansion. maybe that is why you are in favour of expansion, representing nottingham south. the committee said there was a strong report in favour, we a cce pted there was a strong report in favour, we accepted the government's arguments in favour but we called for more information on safeguards

to be incorporated into theirfinal national policy statement, which is what we expect them to bring forward inafinal what we expect them to bring forward in a final proposal for the votes in the house of commons. what is the alternative to heathrow expansion? it is very expensive, very polluting, very unpopular. the alternative is to have a more regional —based apple '5 strategy where people have connectivity on their doorstep. at the moment people had to travel from newcastle down to heathrow, hang around, get a connecting flight. we should be having connectivity where people are, allowing regional airports to expand and be part of how regional economies in the country are growing and driving. lots of people flying into uk want to do business in birmingham, manchester. at the moment they had to fly into london. but mostly they are doing it in the south—east of england, that is where you need to expand? no, we need a uk

wide apple '5 strategy. if you look at whether 45, 40 7 million extra passengers projected to use the heathrow third runway will come from, probably a third would have used regional airports. this is undermining regional airports, not helping them come at the very time when we need to be expanding our economy and the regions, notjust london. why don't you accept that? the argument around heathrow is that it is they hope, it pulls people in from various feeder airports and can support more long—haul destinations -- is support more long—haul destinations —— is that it is a hub. those destinations would not be available at the regional airports and there would be more frequent flights to them, that is the argument. it is undoubtedly changing and there is more point—to—point travel, but demand is in the south—east, heathrow is the only hub airport and we are in competition with hub airports like charles de gaulle,

frankfurt and schipol in europe. that is a backward 20th—century aviation strategy we just talked about. it will be point—to—point in the future. we saw the very first direct flight from sydney to london. the way you free up capacity in the south—east of the uk is by having a proper uk wide strategy where people in newcastle, birmingham, manchester can go on those long flights, but to your other points, we are seeing low— cost your other points, we are seeing low—cost carriers like norwegian enter the long haul markets, they will not want or be able to operate from a very expensive airport like heathrow, the most expensive airport in the world. they would much prefer to do those new routes out of cheaper regional airports. secondly, you need to spend around ten to 15, maybe even £20 billion, on the surface access, in other words public transport. that will be sucked out of the rest of the country. if you hadn't walked out of

cabinet as education secretary, there would have been two arguing cabinet making the case against heathrow expansion, nudges the foreign secretary. i think i am able to make the case more publicly outside of government than in. i already had a dispensation to vote and represents my local community from the prime minister. but you could have convinced theresa may's top team from opposition.” could have convinced theresa may's top team from opposition. i will aim top team from opposition. i will aim to do it from the backbenches. i think my evidence is most important. if you look at the latest october 2017 report that the government published, it shows gatwick as a higher public benefit project than heathrow, more wider economy benefits. if there is an instruction for conservative mps to be forced to vote for it, you would votes against? i have to, iwould vote for it, you would votes against? i have to, i would not be representing my community and i would be going against genuinely what i think is the best interest of

the country. it is time to move from a hub strategy to point regional strategy, we need a 215t—century strategy, we need a 215t—century strategy for the whole country. do you want to be the next conservative mayor of london? i am happy representing my constituents at the moment. would you like to be? i am not particularly thinking about it, at the at the moment the main thing i have in my mind is by stopping the uk from pursuing a highly competitive aviation strategy. it worries me that we are an island without an airport strategy, we need one but it needs to be the right one, not on harking back to the 215t—century. one, not on harking back to the 21st-century. denise richards in wiltshire has got in touch, she is for a third runway, and john elkin lives under the flight path in chiswick in west london and is against. john, what impact would it have on you? a group it already has a fantastic impact. —— have on you? a group it already has a fantastic impact. -- it already has a fantastic impact. pollution

from the a four and m4 is horrible, congestion is terrible. the idea of that being added to by one third is a total nightmare. denise is in wiltshire and for expansion, why? before i retired i used to be a frequent business traveller. the concept of the hub airport is important. as one of the mp5 mentioned, to compare with frankfurt, schipol and charles de gaulle. that is the weakest argument there is. we are coming to the end of the programme. it looks like you will get what you want, a third ru nway will get what you want, a third runway at heathrow. we will have to see what the secretary of state says. when my committee looks at

this we will say the argument is made for an extra runway at heathrow, but there are important safeguards needed for communities likejohn's safeguards needed for communities like john's and passengers safeguards needed for communities likejohn's and passengers to protect them from rising costs. we will wait to see whether the secretary of state has listened to arguments that that committee made. the music means it is the end of the programme, but thank you very much. we appreciated. back tomorrow at nine, have a good day. hello. brightening from the north today with some good spells of sunshine developing. we have already seen prolonged spells across northern scotland and northern england and it all works out the desk to the day. brightening for pa rt desk to the day. brightening for part of the midlands, east anglia and south—east england. a bit more cloud lingering in the south—west could be thick enough for sports of drizzle and there is a bit more cloud for western scotland and northern ireland, but it will brighten up with bright intervals,

the chance of a sharp shower in the west of scotland and temperatures that a maximum of around 20 or 21. showers dying out overnight, more in the way of low cloud and mist feeding in from the north sea coast. clear spells and a touch cooler than last night, temperatures falling into single figures. a cooler start to the date, early cloud tending to linger for parts of northern england and the east. elsewhere, good sunshine and a much improved day for northern ireland, perhaps just the odd isolated shower into the afternoon. a high of 23 celsius. this is bbc news — and these are the top stories developing at 11.

controversial plans for a third runway at heathrow airport are being considered by ministers today after years of argument and delays. this is a massively expensive and polluting proposal to expand heathrow. but also i think people would prefer to see a regional airport strategy that has the connections they need on their doorstep instead of having to go hundreds of miles to travel to london to then fly out from heathrow airport. lam i am live at heathrow, where construction plans on a third runway are being fiercely opposed by local residents. day two begins of phase one of the grenfell tower inquiry, focusing on the facts around the events of the night. 25 newspapers across the north of england call for an emergency summit in downing street to find a solution to the network disruption crisis. the comedian michael mcintyre is robbed by thieves on a moped,
