good morning, welcome to breakfast, with steph mcgovern and mega munchetty. our headlines today: 100 troops are sent to help tackle the huge wild fires on saddleworth moor. we're live from the scene. we'll get an update from firefighters around 7am. theresa may heads to brussels for a summit with eu leaders warning that time is running out to secure a brexit deal. high fives and high hopes as england take on belgium tonight with a place in the last 16 of the world cup guaranteed. but it's auf wiedersehen to germany, as the defending champions are knocked out of the competition by south korea. will higher interest rates become a problem? i've been speaking to one of the top bosses at the bank of england to find out. we are on haven beach in christchurch, where the sun is

beating down. another dry, hot and sunny day with potential temperatures up to 32 degrees in scotland. more in 15 minutes. it's thursday 28th june. our top story: the armed forces have been deployed to help firefighters who are battling to contain a vast fire sweeping across moorland in greater manchester. the blaze has been burning since sunday night and the authorities have declared it a major incident. around 100 soldiers from the royal regiment of scotland were sent overnight to join 55 firefighters across tameside. an raf helicopter has also been deployed to help. pockets of flames cover around four miles of moorland and smoke can be seen for miles around. these images from nasa satellites show it can even be seen from space, but it's those on the ground that are seeing the impact. i've been here about 20 years and we've never been in the position

where we've had to close the premises because of fire and there is certainly not been any evacuations in the past. so this is unprecedented, without a doubt. we noticed a thick, black plume of smoke and we heard crackling and we heard the fire and there was this ash and thick black smoke came tumbling down and we couldn't breve, it was horrendous. crews are very hard, they're working marvellously, it's fantastic what they're doing but the conditions are really difficult up there. 0ur correspondent kevin fitzpatrick is in stalybridge this morning. lots going on, firefighters regrouping. it's now about containing the blaze, isn't it? low yeah, they think they have control of the fire but that's been helped bya of the fire but that's been helped by a cold night and a low a breeze. as with yesterday, when the ground

heats up and the breeze picks up there could be in real trouble, that's when things picked up yesterday. this is the control area for the bottom of saddleworth moor. you can see the firefighters milling around. we've had about 55 working through the night to keep on top of the blaze. as you said, the army are 110w the blaze. as you said, the army are now on the way, the first 30 soldiers are expected to arrive in just over an hour. we've got a tune up just over an hour. we've got a tune up helicopter on its way later on as well. the plan with them is to give logistical help, which is going to help get the firefighters up to the ha rd to help get the firefighters up to the hard to reach laces upon the hills —— chinook. that's been a real problem, they will ferry them up in the 4x4 is, they will also take equipment up. a big battle ahead when the sun comes out but reinforcements are on their way and the fire service are confident they can keep control of this blaze, which has been going since sunday night —— axlis.

and we will hear from the fire service in about an hour. theresa may will meet european leaders in brussels today after she was warned that time's running out to secure a brexit deal. the prime minister is set to join a key eu council meeting where she'll give an update on britain's plans for exiting the union. they're also due to discuss migration, economics and security. donald trump says he wants to elect a supreme court justice who will maintain gun rights. the us president has been given the chance to cement a majority of politically conservative judges on the country's top court afterjustice anthony kennedy announced he was to retire. the us supreme court often has the final say on contentious issues like abortion and the recent travel ban for muslims. democrats wantjudges who will rewrite the constitution anyway they wa nt to rewrite the constitution anyway they want to do it, and take away your second amendment, erasure your borders, throw open the jailhouse

doors and destroy your freedoms. we must elect more republicans. we have to do that. —— erase. in case you didn't know... england take on belgium tonight in their final world cup group game in kaliningrad. sandwiched between poland and lithuania, the russian province is an easier location for england fans to reach. 0ur moscow correspondent, sarah rainsford, reports. hi, guys, welcome to kaliningrad! these england fans took the easy route to russia, a two—hour charter flight direct to kaliningrad. it is the westernmost venue for this world cup. high—five! the supporters found a warm welcome at the airport. i found growing confidence in the england team. might you follow england if they do well, if they carry on?

listen, i'm not getting back on that plane. it will too big an opportunity. i'll stay until we're out, i think. and how long might that be, do you reckon? to the final, of course. but this match is by a beach on the baltic, and the fans are making the most of that. the belgians fully kitted out, despite the heat wave, and a california girl who is backing england. he makes me follow england, so... america got kicked out. and this time, it has not such a bad team to follow, right? so far, so good. hopefully quarter—finals at least. we'll see how it goes then. scenes like this are not what most people imagine when they think of russia, but then kaliningrad, this russian exclave in the heart of europe, is unlike anywhere else in the country. poland's just a0 minutes away so the fans have been pouring in by coach. england supporters had a timid start to this world cup. now it seems the only thing they're hiding from is the sun. sarah raynsford, bbc news,

kaliningrad. sarah rainsford is in kaliningrad this morning. can't imagine there's many fans out yet but i'm sure the atmosphere is going to be jumping yet but i'm sure the atmosphere is going to bejumping in a bit? yet but i'm sure the atmosphere is going to be jumping in a bit?m will be. interesting, mentioned in that report, the england fans have kind of come out of their showers a bit here in kaliningrad. we followed them as they followed the team in russia and in the first match in volgograd they were pretty wary, not many were wearing their shirts. the second match they were wearing their shirts and buy this game, they are drinking beer, hanging theirflags from lampposts and other areas. this will be a big test, bigger than the other two games. the fans are growing in confidence, growing in

support, and growing in numbers. the official ticket sales are fairly small because the stadium is small, but it seems people are starting, as they see england do well, to think about coming to russia and to follow the team as far as they go. sarah, thank you very much. we will be speaking to you through the morning. it will be getting busier behind her and sally will have the world cup action for us in a bit. three british cave divers have arrived in thailand to help with the search for a group which has been trapped for five days. the 12 teenage footballers and their coach went missing on saturday and have not been heard from since. heavy rainfall has caused water levels to rise and the main entrance to the tunnels is now impassable. young people will be left to pick up the bill for climate change because politicians are avoiding the issue, according to a new report. the committee on climate change says the government must act quickly to cut co2 emissions from traffic, homes and farming to avoid future generations spending more in the future. the government says it is committed to being a world leader on climate change.

0ur environmental analyst, roger harrabin, reports. the uk is supposed to be promoting a clea n the uk is supposed to be promoting a clean vehicle revolution. more and more drivers are buying electric ca i’s more drivers are buying electric cars nowadays, but there's a problem. 0nly problem. only a few % of new cars being sold are only a few % of new cars being sold a re low only a few % of new cars being sold are low carbon vehicles. the committee says the government has to do very much more to clean up the vehicle fleet. in fact, emissions from vehicles have gone up when they should have been going down. its power generation that's provided three quarters of the uk's emissions cuts so far. wind and solar power are getting cheaper all the time. dirty coal energy is being phased out. the waste industry has also played a part, with methane emissions down since we've been separating rotting food and green waste from general waste. but

emissions from farming, muck spreading and fertilisers has barely fallen. climate change is already under way, the committee says. if ministers don't cut emissions soon, the next generation will have to pay more to sort out the mess. roger harrabin, bbc news. universities are being told to dramatically improve support for students with mental health issues. the government is announcing it will award a certificate of excellence to institutions which meet new standards of mental health care. it also wants universities to give students an opt—in service which will allow vice—chancellors to contact parents if needed. the duke of cambridge concludes his tour of the middle east today with a visit to historical and religious sites in eastjerusalem. on thursday, he met palestinian president, mahmoud abbas, in the first official british royal visit to the occupied west bank, and also expressed hope for lasting peace between israelis and palestinians. 0ur royal correspondent, nicholas witchell, has more. he's met young people from both sides, israeli and palestinian.

and last night, in eastjerusalem, prince william spoke of their hopes. i'm also struck by how many people in the region want lasting peace. this is only too evident among the young people i have met. they long for a new chapter to be written in the history of this region. a chapter which will secure them a prosperous future and ensure their enormous talents can flourish. 0n william's final day, he will see some of the historic places in and around the old city ofjerusalem, beginning on the mount of olives and moving on to the garden of gethsemane. it will be a chance to learn more about a city that occupies such an important place in thejewish, islamic and christian faiths. all in all, it will be an intense reminderfor william of the complexities of this. and this region, where different

cultures, religions and politics have such a tendency to collide. nicholas witchell, bbc news, jerusalem. perhaps, i'm not looking at you, you're feeling like you've put on a couple of pounds. spare a thought for arbuckle the hedgehog. he's been declared the fattest in the world and has been put on a strict diet and exercise regime to get him back into shape. a rescue centre in aberdeenshire has taken him and hopes to get him fit enough to be returned to the wild. weighing in at five pounds, arbuckle is currently four times larger than a normal hedgehog, or about the size of a world cup football. five lb, he weighs. four times larger than your average hedgehog. about the size of a world cup football. how big is that? is he not about to predict who's going to wind

the world cup? isn't that why he is oi'i the world cup? isn't that why he is on the programme? don't they choose something, bit of food —— going to win. you would roll the hedgehog. that would be cruel. i don't the fat shaming. i'm sure our is ok with it. i tell you who isn't 0k i tell you who isn't ok with it, germany! so much to talk about! —— arbuckle. it was like watching the old england, thinking, how! it was like watching the old england, thinking, how i think they are not passing, they aren't controlling the game? the german fa ns were controlling the game? the german fans were in disbelief, they didn't know what was going on. now they know what was going on. now they know how we feel! shall i say it, the holders, germany, are out of the world cup! it is really hard not to cheer. you've got to be really calm about it, you've got to be neutral! the holders germany are out of the world cup after being knocked

out for the first time at the group stage. they lost 2—0 to south korea in of the biggest shocks in the history of the competition. i almost forgot south korea weren't going through. would have thought from their celebrations that they we re from their celebrations that they were going through. word incredible! —— you would have. —— incredible! no such trouble for brazil though, they beat serbia 2—0 in their final group game to finish top their group. they will face mexico in the last 16. as for england, they're in kaliningrad ahead of tonight's match against belgium. both sides have already qualified for the second round but gareth southgate's side willl want to keep their excellent early momentum going we will talk about that much more this morning. and andy murray insists there is no risk to his fitness if he does decide to play wimbledon next week after he was beaten by kyle edmund in eastbourne. the last british tennis player to beat andy murray competitively in competition was tim henman. that's how long it's been, 12 years ago, a long time since that's happened. well done, kyle. iwonder long time since that's happened.

well done, kyle. i wonder if it's going to be hot. at wimbledon? i already asked carol, she said it would be a bit cooler but i will let her tell you about that. carol is always giving. this morning, a gorgeous view at the beach. sunrise! somewhere amongst thatis beach. sunrise! somewhere amongst that is carol. good morning! good morning all. a beautiful start to the day in christchurch. we are not far away from bournemouth, just down the coast, and already there are runners coming along the beach. we have seen dog walkers and swimmers. it is a fresh start but not a particularly cold one and it has not in a cold night for many. for example, in parts of scotland and northern ireland the overnight temperature didn't fall lower than 17 or 18 celsius. since we are talking about temperatures, yesterday north wales hit 32 celsius. it was 31.9, which we rounded up. that is a high temperature for the time of year.

0ther temperature for the time of year. other parts of the country, widely from the mid—to high 20s. aviemore was 31.3. in northern ireland, it was 31.3. in northern ireland, it was 30, as well. today will be hot as well. northern ireland scotland tipped to see the highest temperatures, 31, maybe 32 in of scotland. hayek pressure is firmly in charge —— high—pressure firmly in charge of our weather. that will introduce a bit more cloud. this morning we have quite a bit of cloud coming in once again overnight from the north sea. some mist and fog associated with that and across eastern counties some of it as far as gloucestershire and wiltshire as well. all of that will tend to clear, low cloud pushing into the coast, where some of it will stick. away from that, a lot of dry, hot and sunny weather. the outside chance of a shower across parts of

the southern up lines. evening sunshine to look forward to as well. 0nce sunshine to look forward to as well. once again we have what has been happening all week, low cloud, mist and fog from the north sea. breezy in the south and through the course of the night as well. what it will not be a cold night. not particularly humid as it was a couple of weeks ago. tomorrow we start off with all this cloud. tomorrow it will be less quick to clear the east coast. some of it will linger and we will have more across the north—east. as a result it will be cooler. cooler air across north—east scotland and north—east england. by the time we get to saturday, just the outside chance of a shower across western parts of scotla nd a shower across western parts of scotland and northern ireland. for most it will be dry. a lot of sunshine around, more cloud, and began coming in from the north sea. if you are wondering about sunday, again hotand if you are wondering about sunday, again hot and sunny, mostly dry, with the risk of some showers coming into the south—west and a weak front across the north of scotland. we could see a little bit of light

drizzle. someone hasjust said to me you remind them of a mermaid, sitting on a rock. and i kind of see it. it is the big tail which gives it. it is the big tail which gives it away. use. -- you said it. let's take a look at today's papers. quite a few different headlines. germany dominating quite a few of them. the guardian has one of the quite amazing photographs from the firefighters trying to contain the blaze yesterday near saddleworth moor, which is said to be as dry as a tinderbox. a lot of people talking about the army being deployed to try and help them control that fire. there is rubbing it in and there is rubbing it in. have you seen this headline? schadenfreude, are now in

meaning pleasure derived from another person's misfortune. gcse german! i found it too difficult. i just thought it was a nice headline. and a picture of a crying german fan after germany was beaten 2—0 by south korea. a couple of stories to look out on the front page of the times. fears that president trump will undermine nato by striking a peace deal with president putin when they meet next month. and chinese railway companies front runners to operate hs2 trains because that domestic bidders are beset by crises and unwilling to take on the bid. now that germany are out, england's chances are being talked about. joint favourites to win.|j chances are being talked about. joint favourites to win. i don't like it when we are the favourites. exactly, england are the underdogs. let's keep it that way, shall we,

for a little bit longer. gareth southgate has been so brilliant, talking everyone down a little bit. 0n the back page of the times, i wa nt to 0n the back page of the times, i want to show you this picture. it is really interesting. what is obvious to you here? who is missing? the goalkeeper. neuer, the german goalkeeper, and at this point in the game, he was playing left—wing. he was literally playing as an outfield player. just for the chance for a goal. he was miles away from his goal, and that is how that happened. but i guess he probably thought at that point we are losing, what is going on. we have to do something fairly desperate here. and it was a risk he took. didn't pay off. like you said, the headlines this morning are interesting. herr we go, gareth southgate. the express calling at his battle cry after the is

arrivals' clash. he is saying we have to win against belgium and top the group. really interestingly, yesterday, clive woodward, england's world cup winning coach, said you have to keep momentum. in a campaign like this you have to keep momentum. don't play for second place in the group, keep the winning mentality going. everyone is in debate about that though, aren't they? even on the front of the ft they managed to get germans' despair. so the ft has a big global audience as well. angela merkel spoke about it last night. she has done and will it affect economic policy in germany? that is for another day. so it is an important issue. the biggest story for us, probably, in terms of the high street, jon lewis is being hit, their profits collapse as retail woe moves up their profits collapse as retail woe moves up the high street. what the ft and a lot of the papers are

saying, afterjon lewis said yesterday that their profits for the whole of the year will be ways than they were last year, just because of all that retail turmoil. closing... thejon all that retail turmoil. closing... the jon lewis partnership, all that retail turmoil. closing... thejon lewis partnership, a handful of waitrose stores around the uk being closed as well. it is notjust those retailers that we have talked about struggling for a long time having problems. even the likes of john lewis. i should mention, having problems. even the likes of john lewis. ishould mention, pubs run dry as fans sit back and drink to england. this isn'tjust us drinking loads of beer because we are getting carried away, this is the carbon dioxide shortage having a knock—on effect to the beer industry. it has had a knock—on effect for the food industry, and a couple of bestsellers now not available at the counter, heineken having big problems. they say they are working at full capacity but a lot of heineken‘s beers, like 1664, you can't find them anywhere. that is bad timing, isn't it? it takes about ten years to train

a gp, but the creators of a new artificial intelligence chatbot say the algorithm they have created is more effective than a medic‘s expertise when it comes to diagnosing patients. their claims have sparked a row with british doctors, who say an app can never replace a real, human medical expert. jen copesta ke reports. do you feel like the room is spinning, or are you feeling faint? the claims were sensational. babylon‘s ceo the claims were sensational. ba bylon‘s ceo told the claims were sensational. babylon‘s ceo told an audience at the royal college of physicians that his artificial intelligence software is now able to diagnose medical conditions better than a human gp. the jackpot based ai conditions better than a human gp. the jackpot based al was shown as an integration with amazon's alexa platform. an existing gp referred users to a human doctor for video call and diagnosis but this nude

chatbot can provide its own opinions and offers a percentage —based estimate of its likelihood of being correct. babylon says its software scored an average of 81% in a clinical knowledge test similar to those taken by doctors in their final exams. that compares to an average mark for a human doctor which babylon countered to be 72%. but the issue of how the chat bot was tested and what questions were used was strongly challenged by the royal college of gps. they also say it services are already siphoning money away from nhs practices that need it. we have had some concerns about gp at hand for some time, and not necessarily about the technology. it is about the impact that gp at hand has health service, which is under enormous pressure at the moment. the pressure facing the nhs and health services around the world was behind babylon‘s development of these services. the

data feeding babylon‘s artificial intelligence doesn'tjust come from the uk. they are partnered as well with the government in rwanda, where they have 2 million registered users. tens of millions of consultations have been providing consultations have been providing consultation back into babylon‘s system since 2016. in rwanda, nurses act as a go—between. the depth of the chatbot knowledge has been a big surprise here. does the chatbot, with some questions that you hadn't thought of? yes, sometimes. really? how does that make you... it makes me feel more professional. back in the uk, this new diagnostic artificial intelligence may take some time to integrate into the nhs, but it is an area that is actively being explored by all sides. the innovators in the nhs are true heroes who work incredibly hard to advance model of delivery. we are a lwa ys advance model of delivery. we are always delighted to partner with them. it will be interesting to know what your thoughts are on that.

we will be discussing this with a gp and a technology journalist at 8:40am this morning. coming up later in the programme: the pangolin is the most trafficked animal in the world. we will find out why, and how british scientists have created a revolutionary way to catch the poachers. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london news. a 16—year—old boy has been arrested on suspicion of murder following the fatal stabbing of a 20—year—old man in north london. police were called to reports

of a row between men armed with baseball bats in edmonton yesterday evening. emergency crews found the victim with stab injuries, but he died at the scene. an investigation into a jogger who knocked a pedestrian into the path of a bus on putney bridge last year has been closed. this woman in her 30s narrowly escaped serious injury when a bus driver swerved to avoid her. the met started hunting for the suspect last august, but say they have now exhausted all lines of inquiry. london's mayor has warned that levels of people sleeping rough in the capital has reached crisis point. today, sadiq khan will publish city hall's first ever plan of action to tackle the issue which will see the number of outreach workers doubled. in the last year, almost 7,500 people were seen sleeping rough in london. bbc london has discovered that a building run by the department for energy and climate change is itself the most energy inefficient government building. the block in westminster has the lowest rating possible. the department says it is now installing double glazing and a new boiler system, but an expert we spoke to says they could do better.

any building that is on that scale is essentially operated inefficiently. it misses the opportunity to set a best practice example. let's have a look at the travel situation now. there is a good service on the tubes this morning. 0n the trains, the c2c is suspended between fenchurch street and barking, due to damage yesterday to overhead wires. turning to the roads, then. we can see on the camera there the traffic lights are not working on the north circular at the hanger lane gyratory, near the roundabout. 0n the m25, a lane is closed anticlockwise between j25 for enfield and j24 for potters bar. that is due to broken—down vehicle. let's have a check on the weather now, with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. no big changes in the weather for us today. in fa ct, in the weather for us today. in fact, we're looking at more or less a repeat performance of what we saw

yesterday. so don't be fooled by the cloudy start. that cloud will be replaced by lots of blue sky and sunshine as we head to the morning, and again it is likely to feel very warm indeed. it is quite fresh, it is quite grey out their first thing. that cloud slowly burning back to the east coast as we head through the east coast as we head through the morning. lots of sunshine developing, very high uv and very high pollen levels as well, but more patchy cloud through the afternoon and we've still got a north—easterly breeze. so i think slightly pull out towards the east. top temperatures of 28 celsius. and another beautiful sunset again this evening. clear skies for a time overnight and then that cloud will start to work its way back in from the east. so again, a grey start to the day on friday, temperatures remaining in double figures, but again feeling quite fresh, i think, figures, but again feeling quite fresh, ithink, on figures, but again feeling quite fresh, i think, on friday morning. but fresh isn't really the word i would use to describe the weekend and as we head into next week, again, temperatures in the high 20s. i think again, temperatures in the high 20s. ithink in again, temperatures in the high 20s. i think in a few days once more we are likely to see 30 degrees.

i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast, with naga munchetty and steph mcgovern. we'll bring you all the latest news and sport in a moment, but also on breakfast this morning: we have the latest on the heatwave with carol. she's enjoying the sun and the sand in christchurch. is this the most patriotic estate in the country? we join fans preparing for england's final group game against belgium tonight. john maguire is there for us. millions of passengers pass through heathrow every month but what happens when they fall ill? we speak to a doctor who spent a decade treating anyone from drug smugglers to stowaways. also pregnant women. we'll get exactly what happens behind the scene is later. —— behind—the—scenes. good morning, here's a summary of today's main stories from bbc news. the armed forces have been deployed

to help firefighters battling to contain a vast fire sweeping across more land in greater manchester. around 100 soldiers from the royal red and scotland were sent overnight tojoin 55 red and scotland were sent overnight to join 55 firefighters across tyneside —— royal regiment of scotland. helicopters have been used to put out flames that cover four kilometres of more land. —— moorland. 0ur correspondent, kevin fitzpatrick, is in stalybridge this morning. they've been battling this for days but what difference is having the army there making? the first 30 soldiers could be here within the next hour or so and those reinforcements have been brought in to support the firefighters in this battle, which, as you say, has been raging for days. on the hills smoke still smouldering from the peat, better than yesterday, when huge plumes of smoke were towering above these moors, flying across magister

and as faras these moors, flying across magister and as far as the irish sea —— across magister. 55 firefighters have been working overnight —— across manchester. they believe they have control at the moment but the concern is once the heat kicks in, when the sun is shining on the moors, the moors will heat up and the wind will pick up and that will be when the fire starts to spread and more pockets reappear, as they did yesterday. the army is on the way and the chinook helicopter on its way to help carry high —— heavy pumping ground to the peaks and they will hope to get this sorted soon. kevin, thank you, we will speak to you through the morning. theresa may will meet european leaders in brussels today after she was warned that time's running out to secure a brexit deal. the prime minister is set to join a key eu council meeting where she'll give an update

on britain's plans for exiting the union. they're also due to discuss migration, economics and security. donald trump says he wants to elect a supreme court justice who will maintain gun rights. the us president has been given the chance to cement a majority of politically conservative judges on the country's top court afterjustice anthony kennedy announced he was to retire. the us supreme court often has the final say on contentious issues like abortion and the recent travel ban for muslims. americans should make their voices heard loudly, clearly and consistently. americans should make it clear that they will not tolerate a nominee chosen from president trump's preordained list, selected by powerful special interests, who will reverse the progress we've made over the decades. three british cave divers have arrived in thailand to help with the search for a group which has been trapped for five days. the 12 teenage footballers and their coach went missing on saturday and have not

been heard from since. heavy rainfall has caused water levels to rise and the main entrance to the tunnels is now impassable. young people will be left to pick up the bill for climate change because politicians are avoiding the issue, according to a new report. the committee on climate change says the government must act quickly to cut co2 emissions from traffic, homes and farming to avoid future generations spending more in the future. the government says it is committed to being a world leader on the issue. 0ur environment analyst, roger harrabin, reports. he doesn't but he will be later. he is poised to bring us the latest on that. universities are being told to dramatically improve support for students with mental health issues. the government is announcing it will award a certificate of excellence to institutions which meet new standards of mental health care. it also wants universities to give students an opt—in service which will allow vice—chancellors to contact parents if needed. prince william concludes his tour

of the middle east today with a trip to historical and religious sites in east jerusalem. the duke of cambridge met palestinian president mahmoud abbas in the occupied west bank on thursday and will today visit the mount of 0lives and the garden of gethsemane. what are we talking about? are we excited about looking ahead to england? are we revelling in the fa ct england? are we revelling in the fact germany pass out. a bit of both surely! as long as i've been watching football for a job, germany have been brilliant —— germany's out. not always but sometimes they win. they know how to pull it out of the bag. the like would go with them, brilliantly organised, and watching them play yesterday, who would have thought that was happening?

—— the lack. who would have thought england would play tonight against belgium already qualified for the next stage and germany are out. not complaining. we have to be careful with this but i will say it anyway and not try and cloa ked! i will say it anyway and not try and cloaked! —— gloat. so the defending champions germany are out! knocked out of the world cup in the group stage for the time in their history, as ben croucher reports you don't need to speak german to understand the mood of this proud footballing nation. be it berlin or kazan, the despondency was universal. this has been a most un— german like of tournaments, bundled against mexico, squeezing past sweden, surely this would be germany's game against south korea? the hints of what was to come were dropped in early. the koreans didn't ca re dropped in early. the koreans didn't care for history, they cared for their moment. kym dillon quorn delivered it in injury time, delirium, dejection and not done yet. encircle be impossible the german goalkeeper attacked and when that doesn't work, you know what

happens next. commentator: son heung—min! germany are out of the world cup. it's a result that reverberated around the world. brazil took a stab after their 7—1 thrashing four years ago. many english speakers saw an irony in the germans having a word for the occasion. mats hummels, defender, had one. awful. we were arguing. it is no unity what we have and that's what we have to change next time. this is a site germans haven't seen for 80 years. they arrived as champions. now, earlier than expected, they leave it all behind. ben croucher, bbc news. elsewhere in group f, sweden finished top with an impressive three—nil victory over mexico. -- 3-0. both sides have gone through though after germany's result. mexico's opponents in the last 16 will be brazil after they ended serbia's tournament with 2—0 win in moscow. former tottenham midfielder paulinho with one of the goals. that win for brazil means that

switzerland would have qualified even if they'd lost to costa rica. it ended 2—2 including this extremely bizarre penalty for the costa rica ns. off the post, off the keeper's head, in the net. well, it's going to be a whole lot more comfortable for england tonight. their spot in the last 16 already confirmed ahead of the final group game with belgium. gareth southgate and his squad are in kaliningrad ahead of tonight's game against some familiarfaces. the belgium squad littered with premier league players. tottenham's eric dier plays his club football alongside three of the belgian squad. i know the strong points, there will bea i know the strong points, there will be a few weaknesses of the players i play with at my club, and the others the same. and, you know, maybe we can use them to our advantage in the individually and as a team if that

opportunity arises. —— advantage individually. there with me for a moment on this. —— there with me. so what next for england? there is a suggestion that losing tonight will lead to an easier route to the final. as group runners—up they will face the winner of group h. eitherjapan, senegal or columbia and a possibly quarter—final with sweden or switzerland. if england beat belgium it could set up a possible quarter—final with brazil. or are we getting ahead of ourselves? i think we should just wind. don't lose! —— just wind. i think we should just wind. don't lose! -- just wind. you never know what could happen. bulk of the —— just when. they are going to play to win. that is what gareth southgate says. —— just wind. and coverage continues throughout the day on the bbc you can watch the conclusion to group h on bbc one and follow england's match on radio 5live this evening.

kick—off is 7pm. andy murray insists there is no risk to his fitness if he does decide to play wimbledon next week. the two—time champion was beaten by fellow brit kyle edmund in the second round of eastbourne. he says he will probably make a decision on wimbledon before the draw is made on friday. johanna konta's final tournament before wimbledon has also come to an end. she was beaten at eastbourne by world number two caroline wozniacki, who took the deciding set in their third round match. england have continued their domination of australia in the cricket, winning the t20 international in birmingham. they scored a mammoth total in their 20 overs, the second—highest in their history. and, while australia put up a valiant chase, a bizarre morning of sport. england through to the next age of the world cup, germany out, we're having a heat wave and the england cricketers have continued their domination of australia —— next stage. england have continued their domination of australia in the cricket, winning the t20 international in birmingham. they scored a mammoth total in their 20 overs, the second—highest in their history. and, while australia put up a valiant chase, england seldom looked like losing. are we in a parallel universe?

england seldom looked like losing! we are enjoying it, it is great! changes to technology and the way we choose to access the news are continuing to pose problems for high quality journalism, according to new research. circulation and print advertising revenues have dropped by more than half over the last decade, from nearly £7 billion to just over £3 billion. more than 300 local and regional titles have closed since 2007. and over the same period, the number of frontline print journalists has dropped by more than 25%. dame frances cairncross is the chair of the independent review into the issue. she joins us now from our london newsroom. thank you very much for watching anning us on the programme. wejust read a few facts out, what's your impression of the state of the industry? —— very much forjoining

us. the industry is struggling, there's a growing numberof the industry is struggling, there's a growing number of papers finding it impossible to carry on. basically the problem is people now read their news online, they don't read their news online, they don't read their news with a physical paper, and lots of the advertising which used to sustain newspapers has also moved online. it started with the classified ads, which was the reason a lot of people picked up a local paper, as much to read the classified ads as the news, and it's now gone on to online and it's made it difficult for newspapers to make enough money to support good quality journalism. that's the sign of the times, he is going, it's surely up to the industry to adapt, or what do you hope this review will do to help the industry? i'm hoping this industry review will look at news provided notjust on paper but also online, and make sure we can be sure we will continue to have a flow of high qualityjournalism, particularly high—quality news. i

think that's good for democracy as well as being good for public information. what are the threats to high—quality journalism information. what are the threats to high—qualityjournalism at information. what are the threats to high—quality journalism at the moment? is itjournalism, orvideos, posted by anyone who has a camera phone at the moment, citizen journalism? is it fake news? what's the problem now? the big problem is there's not enough money to sustain the sort of journalism that we were used to having ten years ago, and that's because advertising has become separated from the product of news. there are also obviously problems with fake news. i think that's a much bigger problem. citizen journalism in some ways is a wonderful thing, because it allows newspapers when they get camera shootings of important incidents to show it directly. citizen journalism augments the news we get. fake news just confuses people. the really important thing is, how do you go on

financing a flow of really good quality news and good quality analysis of news? once you have published the review, what will be done with the information you have found? the government will have a good look at it and decide what it wa nts to good look at it and decide what it wants to do and what to ignore. at the moment what we're doing is asking people for ideas, we're asking people for ideas, we're asking them to send in evidence of what they're seeing, of what's happening to their local paper, to their national paper, and we're also asking them about how they think they will be reading the news in the future. what they find when they move from reading a physical paper to reading news online. we particularly wa nt to reading news online. we particularly want to hear from younger people who are, after all, going to be the newspaper readers 30 yea rs going to be the newspaper readers 30 years from now, or the newsreader is 30 years from now, about whether they think they're getting good enough news compare it with what they might have had if they picked up they might have had if they picked upa they might have had if they picked up a newspaper —— newsreaders. maybe some will pick up a newspaper and compare it with online —— if they

pick up. how do people get in touch with you? they can write to me at the department of digital media, culture and sport. if they look on the website of the dc ms, they will be able to see where to send it. the address is up there. dame frances cairncross, thank you very much for talking to us on the programme. thank you. everyone is talking notjust about the foot or at the minute but the weather. it is incredible, isn't it? —— football. time for the weather, and carol is at the beach. how long is this set to continue for? well, for a while yet. we will see some showers, but into next week, i am that avon beach in christchurch, and the panel borders are getting ready to go out. you can hear the waves crashing onshore —— paddle. we will be showing you the

isle of wight as we go through the morning. it is a fresh start to the day but not a cold one, and that is more or less across the board. in parts of scotland and northern ireland last night the temperature didn't fall lower than 16 to 18 celsius. as we are talking temperatures, the highest temperatures, the highest temperature in the land yesterday, making it the warmest day of the year so far, was in porthmadog in wales. 31.9dc, to be precise. aviemore didn't do too badly either. and northern ireland hit 30 celsius. widely yesterday, the mid to high 20s. today in scotland and northern ireland once again we are likely to have the highest levels, 30 expected in northern ireland, 31 or maybe 32 in parts of scotland. uv levels are high and pollen levels are very high. high pressure remains firmly in charge of our weather but look what is happening in the north. we

have a weak weather front coming in, introducing some cloud later on. first thing this morning we have cloud extending from shetland down the eastern counties of england into the eastern counties of england into the midlands. some of that cloud has got as far west as gloucestershire and wiltshire. some patchy mist and fog, but all of that will burn back to the east coast where some pockets will linger. here as well we have a sea breeze. away from that, a lot of sunshine, the chance of a shower in the grampians and southern up lines. and temperatures as i mentioned mid—to high 20s. locally 30 plus. as we head on through the evening, a lot of evening sunshine, and an overnight once again we have all that cloud lapping in from the north sea, with its mist and its fog. breezy today and tonight and tomorrow across southern counties and into the english channel and the channel islands. talking of tomorrow, that cloud will be a little more reluctant to clear from the north and east. it will clear in places but there will be spots

lingering, and tomorrow it will be fresher across the north—east of scotla nd fresher across the north—east of scotland and also the north—east of england. it will not be cold, still into the mid—20s, but not as high. for saturday we have the risk of a shower across western scotland and northern ireland. for most it will be dry sunny, it will be hot, and the east coast still prone to that low cloud, mist and fog. if you are wondering about sunday, sunday there is the risk of some showers coming into the south—west of england, some drizzle in the far north of scotland, but in between it will be sunny, dry and warm or hot depending on where you are. are you paddle boarding, carol? sorry, say that again. pretending she can't hear! will you be paddle boarding soon? i can keep asking until you hear it? sssh! there is a bad line! and do send us, if you have some nice

pictures of where you are with the weather, send us those. 0bviously pictures of where you are with the weather, send us those. obviously it can cause problems as well. but if you are enjoying it, let us know and send us some pictures. it is expected that interest rates will rise at some point this year, but how is that decision made? there is so much to consider. sean went along to meet one of the top bosses at the bank of england, the deputy governor, sirjon cunliffe. beautiful, isn't it? one of the great financial institutions of the world, right in the middle of the banking heart of the city of london. decisions made in their affect our savings, how much we are borrowing and the stability of ourjob. it is hot enough as it is out there, but in there they will be talking about brexit, trump's trade wars, the problems on a high street. so what

is the temperatures like in there? let's have a talk withjon cunliffe, the deputy governor of the bank of england. thank you very much. how does it feel to have a job where the decisions you make a really directly affect the money in the pocket of people all around the country?m feels like a very serious responsibility. we try and do it on the best information but we are trying to forecast what will happen in the future, and that is not easy. do you think the british consumer, which the economy is very reliant upon, is too reliant on credit cards and debt? british consumers, british households, pay down a lot of debt after the crisis. they worked quite ha rd to after the crisis. they worked quite hard to bring their debt levels down. they are still quite high by international standards, and they are not international standards, and they a re not really international standards, and they are not really rising again overall, but within that there are areas that you do worry about. you worry about households that have high debt, their mortgage repayments are say around 40% of their income. those households historically have gone into trouble when things have gone

down. can we handle an interest-rate rise in this country? well, we would have to see something like a 2% increase in interest rates, and we have said that we think interest rates will rise over the next few yea rs. we have rates will rise over the next few years. we have said they will rise ina years. we have said they will rise in a gradual way, but also they will rise in limited way and wouldn't expect them to rise to those 4— 5% numbers we saw before the crisis. even getting to 2.5% doesn't seem too far away. interest rates at the moment are 0.5%. looking at brexit, are there things that you are worried about? are you think —— other things you think are positive about the process? they are not issues for the bank of england to decide. 0urjob is to ensure the financial system are strong enough to weather shocks. not what we expect to happen, but what could happen. so the work we have done with the banks of the last year is designed to ensure that if they get a bad shock, even a shock of a disorderly brexit, they are strong enough to carry on through it without falling on over in the way

they did —— falling over in the way they did —— falling over in the way they did —— falling over in the way they did in the crisis. finally, can they did in the crisis. finally, can the world cup have a boost on the country's economy if the country does well? i think it probably increases people's confidence. it might make them more happy to spend, or whatever, but it is a relatively temporary thing. so you are cheering them on? we are all certainly following it very closely indeed. sirjon, thank you very much. and it is really important what he says, because he has a powerful position in the bank of england. yes, the words that people likejon cunliffe say affect what happens to currencies, what happens to interest rates, people's expectations of interest rates. if your mortgage lender is the bank of england, and they are saying that the rates are expected to rise, they may change their rates already, never mind what their rates already, never mind what the bank of england decides to do. 0bviously the bank of england decides to do. obviously you have talked a lot

about how personal debt is rising at the moment, so the impact of an interest—rate rise will be significant, won't it? at some point, and that is what is interesting about what he was staying there. he was saying when we get to a much bigger rate than we have at that minute. that is about 2.596. have at that minute. that is about 2.5%. all of a sudden what he was saying is the bank will be more concerned about those people whose income, if you compare their debt to their income, 40% of their income is actually debt, when you look at the size of the amount of borrowings you have. that includes your mortgages and credit cards. so if interest—rate start going above 2%, a lot more people will be in a better financial difficulty, the bank think, than they are at the moment. that is one for us to be keeping an eye on comic as rates rise at, and they may well do that this year. and many will be desperate for a rate rise. they have been waiting a long, long time. the pangolin is a little—known, scaly mammal found in africa and asia.

but it is the world's most—trafficked animal. now, scientists say a new technique could help catch the poachers hunting the creature, as angus crawford reports. if you want to see something extraordinary, follow us. behind this door, some of the rarest animals on the planet. we have got hunting trophies, we've got scales... killed to order and smuggled to be sold. but today we've come to see this. pangolin scales. they don't look like much, but they are worth a fortune. it is all profit, because you are paying that little money to the person who purchase. so when they resell them to the end user, all of that money goes into the kingpin's pocket. to the end user, all of that money goes into the kingpin's pocketm is the most poached animal on earth, the world's only scaly mammals, it

meat delicacy, the scales, in their millions, used in chinese traditional medicines. 0ne animal is killed every five minutes. police do their best, but lacked the tools to identify the poachers. but these scales could offer hope, in a world first, british scientists have lifted human finger prints of them. and here is how. what i want you to do is to grip this... a firm grip, a strip of sticky gelatin, peel it off, and the print should be there. absolutely, just there. finally, into a scanner, and... straight down there. wow. so that is the pangolin scale, and right in the middle of it, a great big thumbprint, with all the ridges and detail. absolutely. this is all you to me, this could be anyone else's? this will be unique to you. it can show the direct link

between scale and poacher. the gelatin strips are cheap and easy—to—use by wildlife rangers in the field. although the technology isn't new, this application is revolutionary. it is the first time it has ever been tried anywhere in the world, and scientists here hope that it could help identify the criminals behind this illegal trade. these rangers that at these wildlife crime scenes need to be in and out of these environments very quickly, because they are dangerous. what we have created is a quick and usable method for them to be able to lift a finger mark off a pangolin scale. and, thanks to london zoo, those kids are already being tested on the frontline in africa. the impact for the pangolin will be huge. we are talking about potentially disrupting and deterring wildlife traffickers, organise committals who are involved in the trade in pangolin scales, and

while they are the world's most trafficked mammal, as we know, it is certainly not too late for them. hi—tech rake through, then, but will it be enough to save an animal already on the brink? it is hard to think it is something as simple as finger prints, in the end, on their scales. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london news, i'm tolu adeoye. a 16—year—old boy has been arrested on suspicion of murder following the fatal stabbing of a 20—year—old in north london. police were called to reports of a row between men armed with baseball bats in edmonton yesterday evening. emergency crews found the victim with stab injuries, but he died at the scene. an investigation into a jogger who knocked a pedestrian into the path of a bus on putney bridge last year has been closed. the woman in her 30s narrowly escaped serious injury when a bus driver swerved to avoid her.

the met started hunting for the suspect last august, but say they have now exhausted all lines of inquiry. the number of outreach workers helping homeless people in london will be doubled under city hall's first ever plan of action to tackle the issue. the mayor has warned that levels of people sleeping rough in the capital has reached crisis point. in the last year, almost 7,500 people were seen sleeping rough in london. bbc london has discovered that a building run by the department for energy and climate change is itself the most energy—inefficient government building. the block in westminster has the lowest rating possible. the department says it is now installing double glazing and a new boiler system. any building that's on that scale is essentially operated inefficiently. it misses the opportunity to set a best—practice example. let's have a look at the travel situation now. there is a good service on the tubes this morning. 0n the trains, the c2c is suspended between

fenchurch street and barking. that is because of damage to overhead powerlines. turning to the roads, then, we can see on the camera there, there is heavy traffic on a2 westbound from danson interchange to falconwood interchange. 0n the m25, a lane is closed anticlockwise between j25 for enfield and j24 for potters bar. that is due to broken—down vehicle. let's have a check on the weather now, with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. no big changes in the weather for us today. in fact, we're looking at more or less a repeat performance of what we saw yesterday, so don't be fooled by the cloudy start. that cloud will be replaced by lots of blue sky and sunshine as we head through the morning, and again it's likely to feel very warm indeed. but it's quite fresh, it's quite grey out there first thing, that cloud slowly burning back to the east coast as we head through the morning. lots of sunshine developing, very high uv and very high pollen levels, too.

a bit more patchy cloud through the afternoon, and we've still got a north—easterly breeze, so i think slightly cooler towards the east. top temperatures of 28 celsius, and another beautiful sunset sunset again this evening. clear skies for a time overnight, and then that cloud will start to work its way back in from the east. so again, a grey start to the day on friday, temperatures remaining in double figures, but again feeling quite fresh, i think, on friday morning. but fresh isn't really the word that i'd use to describe the weekend, and as we head into next week, again, temperatures in the high 20s. i think, on a few days, once more we're likely to see 30 degrees. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london in half an hour. bye for now. good morning, welcome to breakfast, with naga munchetty and steph mcgovern. 0ur headlines today: 100 troops are sent to help tackle the huge wild fires on saddleworth moor. we're live from the scene. we'll get an update

from firefighters in just a few moments. theresa may heads to brussels for a summit with eu leaders as she's warned time is running out to secure a brexit deal. high—fives and high hopes as england take on belgium tonight with a place in the last 16 of the world cup guaranteed. but it's auf wiedersehen to germany as the defending champions are knocked out of the competition by south korea. will higher interest rates become a problem? i've been speaking to one of the top bosses at the bank of england to find out. good morning, from maven beach in christchurch, with a beautiful view of the eagles on the isle of wight. —— avon beach. we hit 32 at porthmadog in wales, we could get to 32 today in scotland. it will be dry, sunny and hot —— the needles.

it's thursday, 28thjune. our top story: the armed forces have been deployed to help firefighters who are battling to contain a vast fire sweeping across moorland in greater manchester. the blaze has been burning since sunday night and the authorities have declared it a major incident. around 100 soldiers from the royal regiment of scotland were sent overnight to join 55 firefighters across tameside. an raf helicopter has also been deployed to help. pockets of flames cover around four miles of moorland and smoke can be seen for miles around. these images from nasa satellites show it can even be seen from space, but it's those on the ground that are seeing the impact. i've been here about 20 years and we've never been in the position where we've had to close the school premises because of fire, and there's certainly not been any evacuations in the past. so this is unprecedented, without a doubt. we noticed a new thick, black plume of smoke and we heard

crackling and we heard the fire, and there was this ash and thick black smoke came tumbling down and we couldn't breathe, it was horrendous. crews are very tired, they're working marvellously, it's fantastic what they're doing but the conditions are really difficult up there. 0ur correspondent kevin fitzpatrick is in stalybridge this morning. kevin, i know we expect a press conference and an update from the fire service, but what can you tell us fire service, but what can you tell us at the control centre? the foot of the moors are smouldering, but as the temperature and wind gets up, it could get worse. i am with tony hunter, assistant chief fire officer. what are the army coming to help you with?

they will provide essential support to the firefighters, who spent over 12 hours yesterday fighting the fires, and they will be up on the more today, so they will bring effective support and additional resources to deal with the incident we have ongoing. is the raf helicoptered to get equipment to ha rd to helicoptered to get equipment to hard to reach places? it is difficult to access, getting heavy equipment is essential for a helicopter —— raf helicopter. we have that available but we are unsure about where we will put the equipment. yesterday there were huge plumes of smoke travelling across the north—west such was the severity of the fire. it looks peaceful at the moment but could there be trouble underneath? it is deceiving at the moment. it looks like it is smouldering away, which it is doing, but when the wind picks up, we could see pockets being established. we need to keep on top of it. we have square miles of unburnt fuel up there and if there's a change in

wind direction or an increase in temperature, we could see that go up. thank you, tony. the army and the raf are on their way. we could have 150 firefighters working through the day to keep on top of this. we will have to see how this pans out but they're hoping for lower wins and a not too hot either. kevin, thanks very much. —— low winds. great to get the assistant chief fire officer as well from greater manchester police as well. we will have more on that later. eu leaders will gather to discuss concerns over migration england take on belgium tonight in their final world cup group game in kaliningrad. sandwiched between poland and lithuania, the russian province is an easier location for england fans to reach. 0ur moscow correspondent, sarah rainsford, reports. hi, guys, welcome to kaliningrad! these england fans took the easy route to russia, a two—hour charter flight direct to kaliningrad. it is the westernmost venue for this world cup. high—five! the supporters found a warm welcome at the airport.

i found growing confidence in the england team. might you follow england if they do well, if they carry on? listen, i'm not getting back on that plane. it'll too big an opportunity. i'll stay here until we're out i think. and how long might that be, do you reckon? to the final, of course. but this match is by a beach on the baltic, and the fans are making the most of that. the belgians fully kitted out, despite the heat wave, and a california girl who is backing england. america got kicked out. he makes me follow england, so... and this time, it has not such a bad team to follow, right? so far, so good. hopefully quarter—finals at least. we'll see how it goes then. scenes like this are not what most people imagine when they think of russia, but then kaliningrad, this russian exclave in the heart of europe, isn't like anywhere else in the country. poland's just 40 minutes away so the fans have been pouring in by coach. england supporters had a timid start to this world cup. now it seems the only thing they're hiding from is the sun.

sarah raynsford, bbc news, kaliningrad. sarah rainsford is in kaliningrad this morning. what's interesting is what you were saying at the end about the confidence of the england fans, not just in the team but in terms of being out there and showing their support publicly? that's definitely right. i've been following the england team and supporters around russia during the world cup and that's the one thing that's really noticeable. when we firstjoined up with them in volgograd for the first match, most people weren't even wearing england shirts and they were hiding away in one pub in the middle they would essentially. they seemed to be hiding, they said they were honest they were wary about russia and scared about coming here after the violence at the euros two years

ago in france in particular. now they've seen they've got a warm welcome in russia, they've found there's nothing to worry about and, as you say, as the team has been proving themselves on the pitch. the england fans have been growing in confidence about the two things and we've seen a lively crowd in kaliningrad, not huge still, but people joining kaliningrad, not huge still, but peoplejoining the kaliningrad, not huge still, but people joining the momentum kaliningrad, not huge still, but peoplejoining the momentum and joining the party, if you like, coming in by bus, charterflights are coming in. people hoping england can go further than here in the leningrad but also hoping they can enjoy the party here in this unusual place in russia right in the centre of europe —— in kaliningrad. it is getting exciting, isn't it? thank you, sarah. eu leaders will gather to discuss concerns over migration at a key summit in brussels this afternoon. theresa may is joining the meeting where she's expected to give more details on the uk's future relationship with the eu. joining us now is our europe correspondent, damian grammaticas. good to see you, damien. what are

the conversations that are going to be had today? migration is what it has been billed as, but we are being warned that negotiations are not progressing quickly enough? yes. let me take brexit first, dinner tonight will be where the key action happens. that's where the really difficult topics are up for discussion. brexit will feature, but only really as a minor part of that, and that will just only really as a minor part of that, and that willjust be a brief little opportunity where theresa may has been asked to stand up while the other leaders are having dinner and update everyone on how she sees brexit negotiations and what she is planning in the coming weeks. european leaders are very keen to hear about her plans for two things, for solving this problem with ireland about the border, and for her vision for the future relationship. they need detail on that. that will only be a bit of

information from her, there would be any debate, no questions, they will listen and move on to the big issue, which is migration —— there won't be. that's the issue really dividing them. that's a problem for the uk's. the eu is focusing on something else at the minute —— that's a problem for the uk. there are deep divisions to ove rco m e for the uk. there are deep divisions to overcome and they may not at this summit. damien, thanks for going through all that with us. damian grammaticas from brussels. the weather looks fabulous there! donald trump says he wants to elect a supreme court justice who will maintain gun rights. the us president has been given the chance to cement a majority of politically—conservative judges on the country's top court afterjustice anthony kennedy announced he was to retire. the us supreme court often has the final say on contentious issues like abortion and the recent travel ban for muslims. democrats wantjudges who will rewrite the constitution any way they want to do it, and take away your second amendment,

erase your borders, throw open the jailhouse doors and destroy your freedoms. we must elect more republicans. we have to do that. three british cave divers have arrived in thailand to help with the search for a group which has been trapped for five days. the 12 teenage footballers and their coach went missing on saturday and have not been heard from since. heavy rainfall has caused water levels to rise and the main entrance to the tunnels is now impassable. prince william concludes his tour of the middle east today with a trip to historical and religious sites in east jerusalem. the duke of cambridge met palestinian president mahmoud abbas in the occupied west bank yesterday. today he'll visit the mount of olives and the garden of gethsemane. 95 students at universities in england and wales

took their own lives last year, prompting calls for higher education institutions to improve the mental health support they offer. the government says it will award certificates of excellence to english universities which meet new standards of mental health care. joining us now from the university of bristol is the vice chancellor professor hugh brady and olivia williams, a student and mental health campaigner, is here in the studio. good morning to you. 0livier, let me start with you, tell us a bit about why you have become a mental health campaigner, it's a personal story for you? i didn't have any mental health issues before university and i got really ill in my first year, i had borderline pneumonia, when i went home when i was sick, my mental health just deteriorated severely. it was around january, february, i

got diagnosed as seriously depressed by my doctor and since then it's been like a battle since then to try to get myself better and that's what a lot of people found with mental health, it doesn't go away overnight, it's a constant battle. did you feel like you were getting help from university? it was while you were at university it happened? i was you were at university it happened? iwas in you were at university it happened? i was in my first year, was lucky, none of the first year really counts, so i took that time to get better and my lecturers were amazing. they said i could do my work at home and bring it in when i was ready. i did a course of antidepressants which just made me sleep constantly through the day. my lecturers were really understanding about that and they said come in when you've adapted to your tablets better. the support network was there for you. hugh, better. the support network was there foryou. hugh, professor better. the support network was there for you. hugh, professor hew bravely, what support networks are in place at bristol university? i ask this obviously knowing student

suicides at bristol, in bristol, have been well—publicised. you must be very mindful about making sure the right systems are in place? we are, the challenge of mental health is the single greatest public health challenge of our time in the universities, but equally in general society. the 0ns numbers that were published in the last few weeks show this is an even bigger issue outside the university. it's a top priority for me as vice chancellor and four other vice chancellors. it is forcing us to look at the complete studentjourney, starting with that transition, an exciting but often intimidating transition from secondary school to third level, but then the types of support we offer stu d e nts then the types of support we offer students when they enter the university, how we work with the student body to identify vulnerable students, support them and how we partner with our nhs colleagues, for

example, to ensure those students who run into problems are better supported. it will not be one single intervention, it will be a new look, a fresh look at the studentjourney. and, equally, ithink a fresh look at the studentjourney. and, equally, i think working with our curriculum to help build in, to mainstream resilience, health and well—being into the personal development of our students. the strategy sounds good but there's a £100,000 grant behind this project, £100,000, we've got all the universities in the uk and all the students, is that enough? well, independent of the minister's announcement, we are investing well over ten times that amount into our mental health services. first, we welcome the minister's suggestion on stu d e nts welcome the minister's suggestion on students opting in. several months ago we took the decision that we

would encourage all students from september to opt into a situation where if we're really worried about their mental or physical health, we can their mental or physical health, we ca n co nta ct their mental or physical health, we can contact a loved one or a guardian that they designate. it has to be done in partnership, has to be somebody they in, that they agreed we can contact and equally, if they find it appropriate, they can opt out. but we are saying let's take a sensible approach to this, you don't become a different person overnight. if you have a mental health issue in a secondary school, we need to know so we can help you best and often that's best in 18 situation. —— a tea m that's best in 18 situation. —— a team situation. we need additional support in the halls of residence, traditional support in the academic schools, but, lamenting that support bya schools, but, lamenting that support by a team of professionals there, 24/7 bases to identify students to support them better —— complementing —— basis. what do you think of all of this,

knowing that you have had problems and support lots of young people who do? how do you feel? it is nice to hear there will be funding put into it, because it is so underfunded. 0nly it, because it is so underfunded. only at university the student union wa nt to only at university the student union want to work alongside them to create a mental health friendly campus, things like creating first aid experts who are trained in mental health in the halls of residence, would be unbelievable. that is where everything happens, at the end of the day. that is where eve ryo ne the end of the day. that is where everyone is drinking and partying, thatis everyone is drinking and partying, that is where you go at the end of the day. you need that support, you need that system, and that is what i wa nt to need that system, and that is what i want to do with the society, we have set upa want to do with the society, we have set up a mental health society to give people that community. so they know they are not alone when it comes to mental health, because that isa comes to mental health, because that is a big thing. a lot of students do feel like they are alone. there will

be students watching now as we approach the summer period, with exa m approach the summer period, with exam stress, and people about to start university next year. what can they take away, thinking about the transition to university and that different lifestyle, to arm themselves mentally and emotionally. definitely if you are going through anything, tell people, which sounds really cliched, but my support system in first year was unbelievable. without my support system i probably wouldn't have gotten through it. this year my family found out about my depression and everything i have been through, and everything i have been through, and that opened up a whole can of worms because i have the support of my family. you can't be scared to speak out, because there is a stigma around mental health. the sooner we get rid of that stigma, the better. i have someone in the union called arthur who i speak with a lot, and he is very involved in those campaigns. we are lucky that we have a student union which want to improve the mental health of the students. it is so good that you are giving back on as well. i suppose it must be quite therapeutic to talk to people about it. yes, the society is fairly new and we are properly

kicking it off in september. but so far, just doing the talks we have done has been helpful, for even one person. for me, even if it helps one person, i am person. for me, even if it helps one person, iam happy person. for me, even if it helps one person, i am happy with that. as you say, talking is very important. and as you say, making sure there are clear lines of communication, in order to get through. details of organisations offering information and support with mental health are available at bbc.co.uk/actionline, or you can call for free, at any time, to hear recorded information on 08000155 998. sorry, i have added an extra zero. 0800 155 998. time for the weather, and carol is at the beach. it is going to get cooler for a lot

of us, especially through the course of us, especially through the course of tomorrow. i am on avon beach in christchurch, heading down towards bournemouth. the beaches virtually empty and if you take a look on the other direction, heading towards highcliffe, it is a similar story. empty, just a big of lovely coloured beach huts. it is a fresh start to the day. it will also be a very warm day once again today, and public health england have given out some good advice. because of the very high temperatures, have a look out for your neighbours and your friends who are not quite as able as you may be, and check that they are ok. what we have this morning is temperatures rapidly rising. yesterday's highest average was in wales, at porthmadog. 31.9, to be precise. temperatures widely in the high or mid—20s. so for example in aviemore the

temperature yesterday was 31.1. in carlisle it was 30.3. in castle dyke was 30. it is another hot day in prospect. what we have is high pressure firmly dominating our weather. you can see today a weather front coming in across the north. that will introduce some more cloud through the course of today. first thing this morning we have patchy mist and fog around, that will burn away readily, and fog coming in from the north sea. some of that has come as far west as gloucestershire and yorkshire. that will push towards the east coast as we go through the day. a lot of it will burn away with one or two pockets and sea breezes, it will be cooler on the coastline. the outside chance of a shower, but it is really an outside chance.

through the evening, a lot of sunshine to behold, but once again we will import more low cloud, mist and fog through the night across eastern areas. breezy in the south today. breezy in the south as we go through the night and tomorrow it will also be breezy in the south, including the channel islands. tomorrow we start off with all that low cloud, mist and fog, pushing back towards the north sea coastline. some of it will stick for the day, and we will have more cloud across the north—east, so temperatures will be lower, but not low at all, across parts of scotland and north—east england. northern ireland could hit 30 again. on saturday the risk of a shower across western scotland and northern ireland, again an outside chance. low cloud coming in from the north sea in the east, but a lot of dry, hot and sunny weather. temperatures in the south getting up to 27, 28, maybe a little bit higher than that. and a quick heads up on sunday. we have a weak weather front across the north—west of scotland which looks like it will bring in some light

rain or drizzle, like it will bring in some light rain ordrizzle, and like it will bring in some light rain or drizzle, and some showers possibly coming up from the south—west of england. for the rest of us this very warm or hot weather will continue. do you know what i have spotted. she has got feet, but no shoes! the flip—flops have gone. you know that feeling when they rub? it is easier, because the sand gets caught between the plastic and your feet, it really hurts. they do, and also when you walk it is flicking the stand—up back of your legs, as well. it is a good exfoliation experience, i must say. the practicalities we have to think about. have you seen carole's feet four? we will leave that for later. —— carol. just because your trotters are covered up, you can't put shane carroll. —— are covered up, you can't put shane carroll. — — foot

are covered up, you can't put shane carroll. —— foot shame carol. are covered up, you can't put shane carroll. -- foot shame carol. and we are talking watchdogs. hotel booking sites are under scrutiny this morning from the competition watchdog. sean has got more on that and the other main business stories today. good morning. first up, the compeition watchdog has been looking at hotel booking sites, and has said this morning that they need to look again at how they rank and display rooms. the competition and markets authority says some sites may be making misleading claims about discounts. it is still looking into whether sites are rushing customers into booking decisions — those things like "seven people are looking at this room right now!" next up, the financial watchdog is worried about people drawing down money from their pension pot, saying that some could actually get 40% more from their retirement pot each year if they invested it instead of taking it as cash. and you might have noticed a

shortage in your favourite and you might have noticed a shortage in yourfavourite pubs, as they have run out of certain brands because of the thing that generates those bubbles, carbon dioxide. there isa those bubbles, carbon dioxide. there is a shortage which has come about because a load of gas manufacturers around europe have closed for maintenance all at the same time. you might have to try and other tipple if your favourite beer is not behind the counter. you would have thought they would all realise they we re thought they would all realise they were closing at the same time.“ thought they would all realise they were closing at the same time. if i had a pound for every person who had said that to me over the last two weeks... you would be £2 richer. salad boxes, i never knew, and carbon dioxide. chicken, pork products, a huge amount of the food industry rely on it, notjust beer. coming up before 8:00am: flying the flag for england. breakfast‘s john maguire is with fans preparing for tonight's game against belgium. good morning, john. good morning,

guys. good morning in the studio. a quiet build—up before the world cup, not too much hope or expectation, not too much hope or expectation, not too much anticipation, it was england have disappointed so often in major tournaments in the last couple of years. but some people did keep the faith, and those are the people of kirby estate in bermondsey in south—east london. have a look at this. more than 300 st george flags festooned across the balconies, strewn across the top of the buildings across the streets here. we also have some of the other nationalities as well. we have a portuguese flag come up a colombian flag, ican portuguese flag come up a colombian flag, i can see perhaps opponents in the next round, and a polish flag here. they will stay up as long as england stay in the world cup. we will talk to the people who put these up later in the programme, in about 20 minutes but was time. they call themselves the kobe ninjas. trying to tap into some of that ——

kirby ninjas. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london news, i'm tolu adeoye. a 16—year—old boy has been arrested on suspicion of murder following the fatal stabbing of a 20—year—old in north london. police were called to reports of a row between men armed with baseball bats in edmonton yesterday evening. emergency crews found the victim with stab injuries but he died at the scene. an investigation into a jogger who knocked a pedestrian into the path of a bus on putney bridge has been closed. the woman in her 30s narrowly escaped serious injury when a bus driver swerved to avoid her. the met started hunting for the suspect last august, but say they have now exhausted all lines of enquiry. the number of outreach workers helping homeless people in london will be doubled under city hall plans to tackle the issue. in the last year, almost 7,500 people were seen sleeping rough in london. the mayor has warned that the capital has reached crisis point. bbc london has discovered that

a building run by the department for energy and climate change is itself one of the most energy—inefficient government buildings. the block in westminster has the lowest rating possible. the department says it is now installing double glazing and a new boiler system. any building that is on that scale is essentially operated inefficiently. it misses the opportunity to set best—practice example. let's have a look at the travel situation now. there is a good service on the tubes this morning. 0n the trains, the c2c is suspended between fenchurch street and barking. that is because of damage to overhead powerlines. turning to the roads, then, we can see on the camera there, there is heavy traffic on a2 westbound from danson interchange to falconwood interchange. in woodford, a lane is blocked on the north circular northbound at the m11 due to an accident.

also on the north circular the traffic lights are not working at the hanger lane gyratory, on the northern side near to the roundabout. let's have a check on the weather now, with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. no big changes in the weather for us today. in fact, we're looking at more or less a repeat performance of what we saw yesterday, so don't be fooled by the cloudy start. that cloud will be replaced with lots of blue sky and sunshine as we head through the morning, and again it's likely to feel very warm indeed. but it's quite fresh, it's quite grey out there first thing, that cloud slowly burning back to the east coast as we head through the morning. lots of sunshine developing, very high uv and very high pollen levels, too. a bit more patchy cloud through the afternoon, and we've still got a north—easterly breeze, so i think slightly cooler out towards the east. top temperatures of 28 degrees celsius, then another beautiful sunset again this evening. clear skies for a time overnight, and then that cloud will start to work its way back in from the east. so again, a grey start to the day on friday, temperatures remaining in double figures, but again feeling quite fresh, i think, on friday morning. but fresh isn't really the word that

i'd use to describe the weekend, and as we head into next week, again, temperatures in the high 20s. i think, on a few days, once more we're likely to see 30 degrees. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london in half an hour. plenty more on our website and over on bbc radio london. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast, with naga munchetty and steph mcgovern. here's a summary of this morning's main stories from bbc news. the armed forces have been deployed to help firefighters who are battling to contain a vast fire sweeping across moorland in greater manchester. around 100 soldiers from the royal regiment of scotland were sent overnight to join 55 firefighters across tameside. an raf helicopter has also been deployed to help put out pockets of flames that cover around four miles of moorland. we've got members of force scots

deployed last night from their barracks at catterick. they are deploying in a local area, there are bound to be deployed now, they're being trained by local fire staff to support them. we've got a bunch of troops deploying in packets of 30 and they're going to be supporting fire and rescue. theresa may will meet european leaders in brussels today, after she was warned that time's running out to secure a brexit deal. the prime minister is set to join a key eu council meeting where she'll give an update on britain's plans for exiting the union. they're also due to discuss migration, economics and security. donald trump says he wants to elect a supreme court justice who will maintain gun rights. the us president has been given the chance to cement a majority of politically conservative judges on the country's top court afterjustice anthony kennedy announced he was to retire. 0pposition democrats have expressed concern about who will get the job. three british cave divers have

arrived in thailand to help with the search for a group which has been trapped for five days. the 12 teenage footballers and their coach went missing on saturday and have not been heard from since. heavy rainfall has caused water levels to rise and the main entrance to the tunnels is now impassable. young people will be left to pick up the bill for climate change because politicians are avoiding the issue, according to a new report. the committee on climate change says the government must act quickly to cut co2 emissions from traffic, homes and farming to avoid future generations spending more in the future. the government says it is committed to being a world leader on the issue. prince william concludes his three—day tour of the middle east today with a trip to historical and religious sites in eastjerusalem. the duke of cambridge travelled this morning to the mount

of olives and the garden of gethsemane. he is the first royal to make an official visit to israel and the palestinian territories in at least 70 years. we must talk about our buckle. we are loving arbuckle today. if you're are loving arbuckle today. if you're a football fan, don't mix them up, our buckle and the football. —— about our buckle. if you're feeling like you may have put on a pound or two, then spare a thought for arbuckle the hedgehog. he's been declared the fattest in the world and has been put on a strict diet and exercise regime to get him back into shape. a rescue centre in aberdeenshire has taken him and hopes to get him fit enough to be returned to the wild. weighing in at five pounds, arbuckle is currently four times larger than a normal hedgehog or about the size of a world cup football. could we not go to this rescue

ce ntre could we not go to this rescue centre in aberdeenshire for a couple of weeks, like a retreat? he gets low—calorie biscuits and i don't wa nt to low—calorie biscuits and i don't want to go there! you want to go to the houses were arbuckle was found. you dhoni to go! good morning! parallel universe, what's going on —— you don't need to. i thought, is it going to be another damp squib, but there's loads happening. before every world cup and every euros we think everything is going to go wrong, england never deliver, but this world cup is turning everything on its head. england are looking confident, they are playing to win. but here's the headline, i'm going to read very slowly... so the defending champions germany are out! knocked out of the world cup after the first round for the first time in 80 years, as ben croucher reports

you don't need to speak german to understand the mood of this proud footballing nation. be it berlin or kazan, the despondency was universal. this has been the most un—german like of tournaments, muddled against mexico, squeezing past sweden, surely they'd come good against south korea? this was germany, after all. the hints of what was to come were dropped in early. the koreans didn't care for history, they cared for their moment. kim young—gwondelivered it in injury time. delirium, dejection and not done yet. in search of the impossible, the german goalkeeper attacked and when that doesn't work, well, you know what happens next. commentator: son heung-min! germany are out of the world cup! it's a result that reverberated around the world. brazil took a stab after their 7—1 thrashing four years ago. many english speakers saw the irony in the germans having such a word for the occasion. defender mats hummels needed just one. i saw all three matches and this was awful.

we were arguing. it is no unity what we have, and that's what we have to change next time. this is a sight germans haven't seen for 80 years. they arrived as champions and now, earlier than expected, they leave it all behind. ben croucher, bbc news. elsewhere in group f, sweden finished top with an impressive 3—0 victory over mexico. both sides have gone through though after germany's result. mexico's opponents in the last 16 will be brazil after they ended serbia's tournament with 2—0 win in moscow. former tottenham midfielder paulinho with one of the goals. well, it's going to be a whole lot more comfortable for england tonight. their spot in the last 16 already confirmed ahead of the final group game with belgium. gareth southgate and his squad are in kaliningrad ahead of tonight's game against some familiarfaces. the belgium squad is littered with premier league players. tottenham's eric dier plays his club football alongside three

of the belgian squad. i know the strong points, there will be a few weaknesses of the players i play with at my club, and the others the same. and, you know, maybe we can use them to our advantage individually and as a team if that opportunity arises. so what next for england? there is a suggestion that losing tonight will lead to an easier route to the final. yes, let's look that far ahead! as group runners up they will face the winner of group h, eitherjapan, senegal or columbia, and a possibly quarter—final with sweden or switzerland. if england beat belgium it could set up a possible quarter—final with brazil. or are we getting ahead of ourselves? shower i calmed down?

showeri calmed down? live in shower i calmed down? live in the moment! —— shall i calmed down? —— ally carmen down? —— shall i calmed down? cullen and coverage continues throughout the day on the bbc you can watch the conclusion to group h on bbc one and follow england's match on radio 5live this evening, kick—off is 7pm. andy murray insists there is no risk to his fitness if he does decide to play wimbledon next week. the two—time champion was beaten by fellow brit kyle edmund in the second round of eastbourne. he says he will probably make a decision on wimbledon before the draw is made on friday. johanna konta's final tournament before wimbledon has also come to an end. she was beaten at eastbourne by world number two caroline wozniacki, who took the deciding set in their third round match. she did blair early well. -- did

play really well. england have continued their domination of australia in the cricket, winning the t20 international in birmingham. they scored a mammoth total in their 20 overs, the second highest in their history and whilst australia put up a valiant chase, england seldom looked like losing. we've seen world cup predictions from cats, polar bears and even octopuses, so we've decided to do one of our own. i went to interview the octopus. didn't say much! we've decided we're not going to use animals but we are going to use one of our own predictions. this is the blue peter garden. —— blue peter. each one of these ice cubes represents a random nation from those teams still in the world cup. we want to know who can stand the heat, the last one standing is our world cup winner! how did you decide the flavours? we had a certain number of flavours... colours match the kids? who put a

glass of wine there? do you know what that was, that was germany's. if anyone was watching the facebook live i did a moment ago, i got rid of germany —— that was germany. live i did a moment ago, i got rid of germany -- that was germany. the one that doesn't melt... the one that stands the heat and gets to the final, wins the final. how much science is behind this? not much. you can notice it is in the shade. it was in the sun a moment ago. you can follow the action live on bbc breakfast‘s facebook page right now. we will be dipping in and out of that through the morning. so many questions! but people love it, don't they? yes. fans are a big part of they? yes. fans are a big part of the process. when you say love it, this isjohn the process. when you say love it, this is john maguire, the process. when you say love it, this isjohn maguire, he is at... somewhere in the uk, that is organisation, isn't it? the kirby estate in bermondsey. john, tell us more.

i was at iwas ata i was at a street in bristol four yea rs i was at a street in bristol four years ago watching england get knocked out by uruguay, i remember it well, but nothing like this, amazing. three 100 st george's park is festooned on the balconies, spread across the street here —— saint georges flags. lots of us are out and about, they want us to come back every day because that's when the kids get out of the house early for school. good morning, you call yourself the kirby ninjas, is that right? we are the flag mangers. of lee! earlier, iwas right? we are the flag mangers. of lee! earlier, i was saying right? we are the flag mangers. of lee! earlier, iwas saying it right? we are the flag mangers. of lee! earlier, i was saying it was a slow buildup —— lovely. lots of people weren't getting as excited as normal, vuvuzela in the background, you guys have gone for it, haven't you? we've done it for years and this year we thought we would go all guns blazing, all out, we started a week before to make sure we were

ready. hopefully everyone is following suit but itjust meant they took their time to catch up! what have you thought of the show so far? really good, i have called most of the scores right, haven't i? you are one of these characters that can predict? like the cat! just give me a bowl of food! what about the tactics tonight, should england go for the victory or second place and ta ke for the victory or second place and take it easy? why not go for it, if you're going to win the tournament, you've got to beat the best teams. go for it, good young squad, go for it! i can see a brazilian flag, a french flag, a colombian up behind me, a polish as well, so it's not just about england? it's about the whole community, we have moroccan, another colombian, portuguese... as long as they're in the world cup...

they can put the flag up. if not, they can put the flag up. if not, they can put the flag up. if not, they can come down. what if we get knocked down? two years ago we couldn't get the flags down quickly enough after iceland, but this year we are more positive. there's a more positive feeling around, there's been a slow buildup, people haven't thought england were automatically going to win. i think so, it's about taking the pressure off the players, not having that on their shoulder, getting knocked out, not going to win, ithink getting knocked out, not going to win, i think they are more relaxed and they are doing well as a result. allen, tell us about your theory, more than a trifecta of coincidences this year, what are they? this time in 1966 this year, what are they? this time in1966 man this year, what are they? this time in 1966 man manchester city won the league, burnley qualified for europe, real madrid won the champions league, chelsea finished fifth in the league, and england won

the world cup. let's hope that comes true! it could be written in the stars! let's hope so. i will have a quick chat with the kids. good morning, kids, who is going to win? england! there is a surprise! good luck to all of you tonight. good luck to all of you tonight. good luck to all of you tonight. good luck to england from bermondsey, from the kirby estate, the very red and white kirby estate. back to you quys and white kirby estate. back to you guysin and white kirby estate. back to you guys in salford. thanks very much, john, it's the atmosphere, something to be really excited about. i love alan's theory about why we might win. we've all got a theory about something. whether it's ice cubes or whatever it is! time for the weather, and carol is at the beach. looking absolutely gorgeous, and i am glad to see you have hidden your feet after they were shamed by steph on national tally.

feet after they were shamed by steph on nationaltally. good morning. i am on avon beach in christchurch this morning and running towards me are some of the gents from the local swimming cloud. i will go in with them. on second thoughts, i am not. anyway, it is lovely here on the beach this morning. the sun is beating down, we have blue skies. yesterday's top temperature was in wales, in porthmadog we hit 32 celsius. 31.9 to be precise. today we could hit 32 once again. this time it is more likely to be in scotland, so 31 or 32 highly likely, and in northern ireland we could hit 30 as well. what is happening is high pressure is still firmly in charge of our weather, so things are settled. but we do have a weather front just settled. but we do have a weather frontjust coming across the north of scotland. that is introducing some thick cloud across shetland at the moment, and through the day it will filter further south. we also have, coming infrom will filter further south. we also

have, coming in from the north sea, around that area of high pressure, a lot of low cloud, mist and some fog. and that has got as far west as parts of wiltshire and gloucestershire. all of that will push back towards the east coast. a lot of it on the east coast will burn away but they will still, like previous days, be pockets of it lingering. breezy in southern england but away from the cloud it will be a sunny, dry, very warm or hot day, with temperatures widely between 25 and 28 celsius. the outside chance of a shower across the grampians and southern up lines. through the evening and overnight it will continue breezy in the south. more low cloud, mist and fog coming in from the north sea and clear skies as well. temperature—wise, it will not be a cold night, but it will not be a cold night, but it will be fresh. it will not be a humid night. heading into tomorrow, we start off with breezy conditions in the south of england and the channel islands. we still have this low cloud coming in, pushing back towards the east coast but it will stick more readily tomorrow and we will have more cloud coming in

across the north of scotland. as a result it will not feel as hot across parts of scotland and north—east england as it has done. northern ireland could still hit 30 celsius. 0n northern ireland could still hit 30 celsius. on saturday one or two showers are possible across western scotla nd showers are possible across western scotland and northern ireland. again we have low cloud coming in from the north sea but equally a lot of dry, hot and sunny weather to be had. for sunday, a quick heads up. i know you don't have a child, a weak weather front coming in across the north—east of scotland could introduce some drizzle, maybe a shower in the south—west, but in between a lot of dry weather. you can go in now, you are free. you dive in! nervously holding her cardigan, like, no way. we will get an update from sally on the sport later on, and shone with the sport later on, and shone with the business. —— sean.

a team of british rescuers have landed in thailand to help in the search for 12 teenagers and their football coach who remain trapped in a cave. the boys from a local academy soccer team cycled to a cavern in the chiang rai region in the north of the country after their usual saturday morning practice. they parked their bikes inside the mouth of the entrance to the cave network, which is popular with tourists, and began walking. one of the boys' mothers reported he was missing later that day, and a search effort began. the area they are believed to be in is extensive, and due to heavy rainfall, much of it has flooded. thai rescuers have already found the group's belongings and have reached a point near to where they think they might be, but have now called in help from specialist british cave divers. let's discuss this with bill whitehouse from the british cave rescue council. good morning. good morning. everyone is really worried, because we have been told the main entrance to the cave is impossible now. tide levels

area cave is impossible now. tide levels are a problem. the british cave rescue council is being called upon, why? we have just rescue council is being called upon, why? we havejust said rescue council is being called upon, why? we have just said this rescue council is being called upon, why? we havejust said this is a popular walk. well, it is a part of the first part of the cave, a show cave open for tourists which is also a buddhist temple in there, i believe. but the further parts of the cave where people can just go and explore, cavers will go and explore, and it is prone to flooding at this time of the year with the monsoon reigns. the part they went in last saturday, it floated behind —— rains. the hope is they went further into the cave and got into a number of areas which are believed to exist above the flood level, and hopefully they are sitting it out. it has been quite a few days now, so what are the british divers going to do which is different to what has already been done? well, they are

specialist cave divers and diving in a cave is different to open water diving. the main problem is being visibility under the water, because especially in flood conditions, the suspended sediment, marred in the water, you might not be able to see more than a foot. it is completely dark on top of that —— mud in the water. getting through those conditions and not getting disoriented under water, they are used to laying a guideline as they go intoa used to laying a guideline as they go into a flooded passage, and that is mainly so they can find a way out again. so how long is this process? the divers were on a plane yesterday from heathrow. they arrived there yesterday. so far, as far as i am aware, i had a very brief e—mail from one of them last night. they have had a brief look into the cave, a sort of reconnaissance trip pursuant diving trip, and the water has come up further and above the

water they can't get even as far as the teams were able to get earlier in the week. the forecast is not good, so they will now be rethinking what they can do. but they are only there as part of a much bigger effort. you know, they are looking at trying to dive through the flooded passage and try and reach the missing party that way. the thais are trying pumping out, they are looking for other entrances which might lead into the cave. there are not any that are known, but that doesn't mean they don't exist. they have had a huge surface search looking for other entrances. they are trying everything they can, obviously. hopefully, when the conditions are right, the experienced cave divers with the particular equipment and skills they have, if they can get through to the party and find them, at the very least they should be able to ferry through food, installation, that sort of thing, to keep them going.

—— insulation. 0nce sort of thing, to keep them going. —— insulation. once they know where they are in the cave, that gives you a better clue to find another way into that part of the cave, but that isa into that part of the cave, but that is a long shot. the final chance is diving them out. that would be a last resort, but it has been done in other circumstances. are you optimistic? you have got to stay optimistic. of course you do. thank you. it is expected that interest rates will rise at some point this year, but how is that decision made? sean went along to meet one of the top bosses at the bank of england, the deputy governor, sirjon cunliffe. beautiful, isn't it? one of the great financial institutions of the world,

right in the middle of the banking heart of the city of london. decisions made in there affect our savings, how much we're borrowing, and the stability of ourjobs. it's hot enough as it is out here, but in there, they'll be talking about brexit, trump's trade wars, problems on the high street. so what is the temperature like in there? let's have a talk withjon cunliffe, the deputy governor of the bank of england. thank you very much. how does it feel to have a job where the decisions you make really directly affect the money in the pocket of people all around the country? it feels like a very serious responsibility. we try and do it on the best information, but we're trying to forecast what will happen in the future, and that is not easy. do you think the british consumer, which the economy is very reliant upon, is too reliant on credit cards and debt? british consumers, british households, paid down a lot of debt after the crisis.

they worked quite hard to bring their debt levels down. they're still quite high by international standards, and they're not really rising again overall. but within that, there are areas that you do worry about. you worry about households that have high debt, their mortgage repayments are, say, around 40% of their income. those households historically have got into trouble when things have gone down. can we handle an interest—rate rise in this country? well, we would have to see something like a 2% increase in interest rates, and we've said that we think interest rates will rise over the next few years. we have said they'll rise in a gradual way, but also they'll rise in limited way, and wouldn't expect them to rise to those 4%—5% numbers we saw before the crisis. even getting to 2.5% — doesn't seem too far away. interest rates at the moment are 0.5%. looking at brexit, are there things that you are worried about? are there things you think are positive about the process? they are not issues for the bank of england to decide. 0urjob is to ensure the financial systems are strong enough to weather shocks — not what we expect to happen, but what could happen. so the work we have done

with the banks over the last year is designed to ensure that if they get a bad shock, even the shock of a disorderly brexit, they're strong enough to carry on through it without falling over in the way they did in the crisis. finally, can the world cup have a boost on a country's economy, if the country does well? i think it probably increases people's confidence. it might make them more happy to spend, or whatever, but it's a relatively temporary thing. so you're cheering them on? we're all certainly following it very closely indeed. sirjon, thank you very much. iam happy i am happy with a temporary impact. it is interesting what he said about the impact of interest rates going up, because that is what a lot of people will be worried about. we are

still a country where a lot of people are in debt. and interest rates are rock bottom, 0.5%. he was saying if we got to a 2.5% level, which historically doesn't seem very high at all, and is still a way off, it gets to that level, it is those households where if you look at the amount of debt they have, if that makes up half the income you have come about 40%, those households may get into trouble if interest rates go get into trouble if interest rates 9° up get into trouble if interest rates 9° up by get into trouble if interest rates go up bya get into trouble if interest rates go up by a couple of%. but savers will be happier because they have not had much return on their money. they might look at 2.5% and say it still doesn't seem that high. that would be an advantage if rates go up. you looked very comfortable in the bank of england. mark carney is leaving. we're not letting you go. and it is so posh they are! time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london news, i'm tolu adeoye.

a 16—year—old boy has been arrested on suspicion of murder following the fatal stabbing of a 20—year—old in north london. police were called to reports of a row between men armed with baseball bats in edmonton yesterday evening. emergency crews found the victim with stab injuries, but he died at the scene. an investigation into a jogger who knocked a pedestrian into the path of a bus on putney bridge has been closed. the woman in her 30s narrowly escaped serious injury when a bus driver swerved to avoid her. the met started hunting for the suspect last august, but say they have now exhausted all lines of enquiry. the number of outreach workers helping homeless people in london will be doubled under city hall plans to tackle the issue. in the last year, almost 7,500 people were seen sleeping rough in london. the mayor has warned that the capital has reached crisis point. bbc london has discovered that a building run by the department for energy and climate change is itself one of the most energy—inefficient

government buildings. the block in westminster has the lowest rating possible. the department says it is now installing double glazing and a new boiler system. any building that is on that scale is essentially operated inefficiently. it misses the opportunity to set best—practice example. let's have a look at the travel situation now. there is a good service on the tubes this morning. 0n the trains, the c2c is suspended between fenchurch street and barking. that is because of damage to overhead powerlines. turning to the roads, then, we can see on the camera there, in woodford a lane is blocked on the north circular northbound at the m11 due to an accident. congestion is back to a12. 0n the m25, a lane is closed anticlockwise between j25 for enfield and j24 for potters bar. that is due to a

broken—down vehicle. let's have a check on the weather now, with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. no big changes in the weather for us today. in fact, we're looking at more or less a repeat performance of what we saw yesterday, so don't be fooled by the cloudy start. that cloud will be replaced with lots of blue sky and sunshine as we head through the morning, and again it's likely to feel very warm indeed. but it's quite fresh, it's quite grey out there first thing, that cloud slowly burning back to the east coast as we head through the morning. lots of sunshine developing, very high uv and very high pollen levels, too. a bit more patchy cloud through the afternoon, and we've still got a north—easterly breeze, so i think slightly cooler out towards the east. top temperatures of 28 degrees celsius, then another beautiful sunset again this evening. clear skies for a time overnight, and then that cloud will start to work its way back in from the east. so again, a grey start to the day on friday, temperatures remaining in double figures, but again feeling quite fresh, i think, on friday morning. but fresh isn't really the word that i'd use to describe the weekend, and as we head into next week, again, temperatures in the high 20s. i think, on a few days, once more we're likely to see 30 degrees.

i'm back with the latest from the bbc london in half an hour. bye for now. good morning, welcome to breakfast with naga munchetty and steph mcgovern. 0ur headlines today... 100 troops are sent to help tackle the huge wild fires on saddleworth moor. firefighters say the situation is under control at the moment, but warn they're at the mercy of the winds. theresa may heads to brussels for a summit with eu leaders, as she's warned time is running out to secure a brexit deal. high fives and high hopes as england take on belgium tonight with a place in the last 16 of the world cup guaranteed. but it's auf wiedersehen to germany as the defending champions are knocked out of the competition by south korea.

there's a clamp—down on the websites you use to book your summer holidays, as the regulator says they need to be fairer to customers. good morning from christchurch where the beach is empty. not for much longer because today across the board again it is going to be dry and sunny and hot apart from in the east. more in 15 minutes. it's thursday 28th june. thank you forjoining us. our top story. the armed forces have been deployed to help firefighters who are battling to contain a vast fire sweeping across moorland in greater manchester. the blaze has been burning since sunday night and the authorities have declared it a major incident. around 100 soldiers from the royal regiment of scotland were sent overnight to join 55 firefighters across tameside. an raf helicopter has also been deployed to help. pockets of flames cover around four

miles of moorland and smoke can be seen for miles around. these images from nasa satellites show it can even be seen from space, but it's those on the ground that are feeling the impact. i've been here about 20 years and we've never been in a position where we've had to close the school premises because of fire and there have certainly not been any evacuations in the past. so this is unprecedented without a doubt. we noticed a new, thick, black plume of smoke and then heard crackling and heard the fire. and then all this ash and the thick black smoke came tumbling down and we couldn't breathe. i mean it was horrendous. the crews are very, very tired. they are working, they are marvellous and it's fantastic what they are doing but they are working very hard and conditions are really difficult out there. 0ur correspondent kevin fitzpatrick is in stalybridge this morning. good morning. i can already see the

temperature is picking up because you had your jacket temperature is picking up because you had yourjacket on earlier but you had yourjacket on earlier but you have taken it off. the chief fire officer said earlier it is quite deceiving at the moment because of the night it looked like things have calmed down but that terrain is fuel for more trouble. absolutely. there is relative peace here compared to what it has been like in the latika bourke days. still pockets of smoke coming up from various parts of the more that occur in the last couple of days. the firefighters think they are in control of the six main areas that when the sun comes up it could reignite parts of the huge area which spans a number of square miles. that is why the extra support has been brought in and we have at the impressive sight of the first 30 soldiers marching up the pathway to tojoin the soldiers marching up the pathway to to join the teams at the control centre and i am with wing commander gary lane also why have the military

being brought in? it was a request from the greater manchester fire and rescue service for additional staff to assist beating the fires. there isa to assist beating the fires. there is a large area to look at and we are providing 100 troops from four scots based at catterick in north yorkshire, they came down last night and they are here this morning. the first elements are on the ground and they have been trained and they will go they have been trained and they will go out with the fire and rescue service in support of them to try to get rid of this fire. they are here for 48 hours initially but it could be longer? that is the request at the moment, we are in support but if they need is for longer we will look and see if we can do that. we are here to support them and their request as it stands at 48 hours. thank you for talking to us. the help is now arriving some tired firefighters have been working incredibly hard since sunday. more

hands to the pump and the hope is that although we love the weather, we do not want the fires to kick—start up on the moors again. thank you so much for your time and for keeping us across it. england take on belgium tonight in theirfinal world cup group game in kaliningrad. sandwiched between poland and lithuania, the russian province is an easier location for england fans to reach. 0ur moscow correspondent, sarah rainsford, reports. these england fans took the easy route to russia. a two—hour charter flight direct to kaliningrad. it is the westernmost venue for this world cup. the supporters found a warm welcome at the airport and i found growing confidence in the england team. might you follow england if they do well, if they carry on? 0h, listen, i'm not getting back on that plane yet. it will be too big an opportunity.

i'll stay here until we're out i think! and how long might that be, do you reckon? to the final, of course! but this match is by a beach on the baltic and the fans are making the most of that. the belgians fully kitted out despite the heatwave and a california girl who is backing england. america got kicked out and, i don't know, he makes me follow england. and this time it hasn't been such a bad team to follow? so far so good, yeah. hopefully quarterfinals at least. we will see how it goes. scenes like these aren't what most people imagine when they first think of russia but then kaliningrad, this russian exclave in the heart of europe, isn't like anywhere else in the country. poland is just a 40—minute drive away so the fans have been pouring in here by coach. england supporters had a timid start to this world cup. now it seems the only thing they are hiding from is the sun. sarah rainsford, bbc news, kaliningrad. fairto

fair to say that the excitement is building around the world ahead of this game, at least for us here. sarah, we have similar weather, warm and sunny. are you feeling the buzz from english fans? we were before we came on air, definitely, the mood is pretty lively. it looks fairly deserted now but 15 minutes ago there was an england supporters banned banging the drum and playing the trumpet and they were suddenly surrounded by dozens of belgian bands, a conger singing along with belgian words! —— eight conga. this is the most european location there could be for that russian world cup ina could be for that russian world cup in a russian exclave between poland and lithuania are so is easier for

most and lithuania are so is easier for m ost fa ns and lithuania are so is easier for most fans to get to. they have been coming in on buses and charter flights and we are expecting more to come to date as the atmosphere begins to build and i guess the party mood is set to continue. thank you very much. our very own dan's been following all the action in russia and is in moscow for us this morning. good morning, how is the holiday i mean the mulhauser going? it's very hard work! good morning to you all and welcome to moscow. you heard sarah took me about this being england's final group game. we are talking to mark lawrenson. we're going to talk about germany as welcome a big surprise them going home but for england, all the talk is of who you could play from this point on. people at the world cup wall charts. i have got one!

planning the route, do you think gareth southgate and the players should be planning to finish first or second? no, youjust should be planning to finish first or second? no, you just win. should be planning to finish first or second? no, youjust win. england have got as much if not more momentum than any other team and the way they have played has been refreshing. go out and win another game. it increases the fear factor to whoever they get in the next round. people are planning and if they finish second they would potentially get either sweden or switzerland in the quarterfinals. they are ahead of themselves. you know what it's like, this is what happens at a world cup. every single pundit i have spoken to says to forget that, it is about momentum and keep playing the football you wa nt to and keep playing the football you want to play. absolutely, and i do think they can go a long way, but there will be a game when they played poorly and that is the most important dates because theyjust have to win. forget about planning, just keep winning games. we have

watched a lot of football. where do you judge where england are? watched a lot of football. where do youjudge where england are? top four. going back to the champions league and looking at the later stages the teams that played pressing football, they were all successful in terms of getting through. england are a bit like that. in the first game they could have been four up after 20 minutes. they managed to win it at the end. it is refreshing, a lot of pace in the team and no kind of billy big—time mers, they are as one and have a good dressing room the manager is full of common sense. england fans will remember they finished second in their euros group and got iceland. they could have got tesco! thank you. the other thing to talk about is germany. a lot of england fans are getting excited that the last england got further than germany in a world cup was

1966. how big a story is it them going out? it is massive, they had enough chances to win the game and this is a german team that has reached the end of its cycle and your d'mello said that a few years ago. they will to start again. that's maghoma joachim low said that. i found there was a bit of an arrogant about them, that they thought they could score at any time but football is not like that and south korea did brilliantly all stop for germany to be out, you would have got massive odds on them going out in the group. steph was joking about us being on holiday! she is on permanent holiday! the weather is lovely here, you came to russia first in the 19805 with the republic of ireland and with liverpool. how big a change has there been? massive. i run the —— i remember one

day, we went for a walk, and we were surrounded by about 20 blokes watching what we were doing. it is five years since i have been. this country is so westernised now. i had preconceived ideas that it would not be particularly nice but i would put it in my top three major cities in the world. it's brilliant, i'm surprised how good moscow is fulsome i think steph has a question for us! iju5t i just wanted to ask you, sarah was saying earlier about how the mood of the fans has changed not this about the fans has changed not this about the players but the reception they getting from the russians. have you seen them come out more as we have gone further through the tournament? mark can't hear you. set was asking about the reception of the fans for players and fans of other countries from the people of russia. you have

travelled all over. absolutely, we we re travelled all over. absolutely, we were in saransk the other day. how they got a game i have no idea but every single person there, walking through the streets, they were just smiling and talking. it is a massive sea change. for this country it will be fabulous for them, the world cup, and the spin off will be great.|j was hearing yesterday that there are people in moscow attending smiling classes. you want to get down there! it has been seen at this sign of wea kne55 it has been seen at this sign of weakness for many years. you talk about we5terni5ation, they are genuinely more people. but what i have still found is that you had to start the conversation. if somebody opens a door and you say thank you they look at you as if it doesn't normally happen but it is fantastic. a5 normally happen but it is fantastic. as ever with mark, culture and football together. all the best two

england tonight, and you can see highlights later on with gary lineker and the team. you can tell mark that he is right, i don't know what a holiday is because i never have one! i was just looking for my violin! and coverage continues throughout the day from 3pm on bbc radio 5 live. and on bbc one from 7pm. eu leaders will gather to discuss concerns over migration at a key summit in brussels this afternoon. theresa may is joining the meeting where she's expected to give more details on the uk's future relationship with the eu. joining us now is our europe correspondent, damian grammaticas. we have a conversation that is 5uppo5ed we have a conversation that is supposed to be happening about migration and theresa may saying that we are not negotiating quickly

enough, not progre55ing that we are not negotiating quickly enough, not progressing well enough. what kind of conversations will be happening today? there will be one conversation this evening, not a conversation, ju5t there will be one conversation this evening, not a conversation, just a 5imple statement by theresa may over dinner about brexit. in that, she will, the eu leaders hope, give indications about what she is thinking for the future relationship, but how to solve the crucial issue at the minute, which is the stalled negotiations about the border between northern ireland and ireland. those are the issues they need to hear her they say put more ideas on the table about. then they will turn all of them to the issue of migration and that is the big one for the eu at the minute, we brexit stalled, how to overcome the divisions, the political divisions, within the eu about how to handle migration, asylum, the people

crossing the mediterranean at the minute trying to get to italy and europe. the minute —— the numbers have fallen to radically but the politics has become very poisonous and we think probably there will be little agreement. really? ok, tomorrow will be even more interesting. thanks very much. gorgeous weather back, what is it like across the uk? time for the weather, and carol's at the beach. avon beach. back in her mermaid pose, with herflip—flops. good morning. and good morning at home. and if we had in that direction, that will take you to bournemouth. and you can see just ahead, in front of it, a lot of beach huts sitting on the sandbanks. and family have come down and they are having a picnic on the beach which is ideal. it is not too hot,

it is breezy and it is perfect and the beach is fairly empty. i'm sure it won't be later on because the temperature like in the last few daysis temperature like in the last few days is going to rocket. yesterday's top temperature was 31.9 celsius, rounded up to 32 in porthmadog in wales. it was hot in other parts of the country, and widely, temperatures from the mid to the high 205. in parts of scotland, england and wales, just above 30. today, it is not —— it is northern ireland and scotla nd not —— it is northern ireland and scotland that will see similar bullies, 30 in northern ireland and 31, possibly 32 in scotland. so bad that in mind, uv levels and polymer bullseye re—. i pressure still dominating the weather so fairly static. a weather front trying to get into the north of the country. that will introduce more cloud through the day. we have had low cloud, mist and fog from the north sea through the night. coming across

eastern areas as far west as wiltshire and gloucestershire. that will burn back towards the coastline and we will see pockets of it lingering along the east coast. temperature is more likely to be between 16 and 19. in the sunshine, it is hot. 0utside chance of a shower in the cairngorms and the southern plans. breezy in the south today including the channel islands and tonight. a lot of clear skies tonight and once again, low cloud and mistand tonight and once again, low cloud and mist and fog from the north sea. fresh start the day tomorrow. still the cloud and mist and fog pushing back towards the east coast. tomorrow, it will then get in places. including in the north of the country. cooler across parts of scotla nd the country. cooler across parts of scotland and north east england compared to what we had. not 30 or 31, more likely the mid—205. tomorrow, northern ireland could hit 30 celsius again. on saturday, the

southeast has a high temperatures again, 28, 29, possibly 30. still sunny and dry or warm hot day. with the low cloud again from the north sea pushing back towards the coastline through the day. always cooler on the coast with sea breezes. 0n cooler on the coast with sea breezes. on sunday, in case you are wondering, a weak weather front coming into the north west of scotland, introducing light rain or drizzle and a chance of showers into the south—west. that aside, this very warm and hot weather is set to continue into next week. thanks, it looks gorgeous and i love that man in the background. he was in the phone the whole time probably saying to one of his relatives, can you see me yet?! banks, see you in a bit. from the mermaid that is carol to the pangolin. the pangolin is a little—known scaly mammal found in africa and asia, but it's the world's most trafficked animal. now scientists say a new technique could help catch the poachers hunting the creature, as angus crawford reports. if you want to see something

extraordinary, follow us. behind this door, some of the rarest animals on the planet. we've got hunting trophies, we've got skulls... killed to order, and smuggled to be sold. but today, we've come to see this — pangolin scales. they don't look like much, but they're worth a fortune. it's all profit, because you're paying that little money to the person who poaches. so, when they resell them to the end user, all of that money goes into the kingpins' pocket. it's the most poached animal on earth, the world's only scaly mammal, its meat a delicacy, the scales — in their millions — used in chinese traditional medicines. 0ne animal is killed every five minutes. police do their best, but lack the tools to identify the poachers. but these scales could offer hope. in a world—first, british

scientists have lifted human fingerprints off them, and here's how. what i want you to do is to grip this... a firm grip, a strip of sticky gelatin. peel it off... and the print should be there. absolutely, just there. finally, into a scanner, and... straight down there. wow! yeah. so, that's the pangolin scale and, right in the middle of it, a great big thumbprint, with all the ridges and detail. absolutely. this is all unique to me, this couldn't be anyone else's? this will be unique to you. it can show the direct link between scale and poacher. the gelatin strips are cheap and easy—to—use by wildlife rangers in the field. although the technology isn't new, this application is revolutionary. it's the first time it's ever been tried anywhere in the world, and scientists here hope that it could help identify the criminals behind this illegal trade.

these rangers that are at these wildlife crime scenes need to be in and out of these environments very, very quickly, because they're dangerous. what we've created is a quick and usable method for them to be able to lift a finger mark off a pangolin scale. and, thanks to london zoo, those kits are already being tested on the frontline in africa. the impact for the pangolin will be huge. we're talking about potentially disrupting and deterring wildlife traffickers, organised criminals, who are involved in the trade in pangolin scales. and whilst they are the world's most trafficked mammal, as we know, it's certainly not too late for them. a hi—tech breakthrough, then, but will it be enough to save an animal already on the brink? angus crawford, bbc news. such a simple solution,

fingerprints. the simplest solutions, butjust don't do it, don't them, horrible kill people! we love the pangolin fa cts . kill people! we love the pangolin facts. we like you to learn something new every day. we had the one that it is the only mammal covered in scales. it can consume 20,000 ants a day. and you know how it protects itself from ants? its muscles are so strong, it can close it snows and its ears. but i have worked out we can do that with our hands so i didn't mind that is impressive. pangolin can do it without hands. they also have very long sticky tongues which perhaps is not so surprising. but the tongue is often longer than the body. see? have you mentioned the scales are made of keratin like your nails? that is a good fact. and you might

this day she might know this, the scales make up 20% of their body weight. whatever! checkout our mammal corresponded! anything else? watchdogs. my watchdogs. my second expertise, business news. good morning. first up, the compeition watchdog has been looking at hotel booking sites. you see those things, how many people are looking at the room at the same time as you and the discount, they are ranked like that. they had been told look again at how they rank and display the rooms. do you feel satisfied when you have booked it or have you been rushed doing it? the competition and markets authority says some sites may be making misleading claims about discounts. they are going to look at making

some changes. next up, the financial watchdog is worried about people drawing down money from their pension pot. something we have talked about a lot. saying that some could actually get 40% more from their retirement pot each year if they invested it instead of taking it as cash. they want the pensions industry to make changes that. and all you beer watchdogs out there may have noticed a shortage in your favourite pubs. wetherspoons and enterprise inns have both said they've run out of certain brands. and it's all because of the carbon dioxide shortage, which has come about because a load of gas manufacturers around europe have closed for maintenance at the same time. they are supposed to be coming online soon so on theory, it should get better. so if you're off out for the game tonight, you might have to try another tipple. would you believe? i don't like lager. it affects so many things. maybe you have had a pint of lager
