good morning. welcome to breakfast, with naga munchetty and jon kay. our headlines today: prepare for the possibility of no deal. the eu warns member states to be ready in case brexit negotiations fail. victims of hate crime are being let down by forces across england and wales. president trump backtracks again. he says he holds vladimir putin personally responsible for russian interference in the american elections two years ago. it has been a record year for british book sales, so i will be looking at what keeps us all turning the pages. welcome to the open championship at carnoustie, where rory mcilroy says he wants to create more good memories. it all starts in half an hour's time. it isa it is a dry day there and across much of the uk once again, but there is some rain in the forecast tonight

and tomorrow. i will have the details here on breakfast. it is thursday 19july. our top story: the european commission is warning countries across the eu to prepare for the possibility of a no—deal brexit. they say there could be serious consequences for governments, travellers and businesses if no agreement is reached. the warning comes as the new brexit secretary, dominic raab, travels to brussels to meet with the eu's chief negotiator for the first time. what sort of welcome can he expect? our political correspondent chris mason is in westminster. you know, we are now hearing from both sides. we heard from theresa may yesterday and we are now hearing from the eu, be prepared for no deal. although it has always been a possibility, it has neverfelt deal. although it has always been a possibility, it has never felt as close or as real possibility as it does now. quite, exactly. with all of the turbulence within the

government, some in brussels fret that may be no deal can be done. they are publishing a document this morning setting out how they would like their member states to respond in that eventuality, and the government here is becoming better prepared as well. the prime minister insists it is no more likely than it has ever been, but she has said the government will publish 70 documents over the summer setting out how we as individuals and also businesses should deal with the situation of no deal. michael gove, the environment secretary, also saying that preparations have stepped up for the potential of no deal since that white paper and the chequers agreement were set out a couple of weeks ago, and all this, as you mentioned, on dominic raab‘s first day in the newjob, heading out to brussels as brexit secretary just months before we leave the eu. what a first day. let's hope he likes a

challenge. the police watchdog has warned of a real possibility that britain's exit from the european union next year will trigger a spike in hate crimes, and said forces must take action to tackle significant problems in the way offences are dealt with at the moment. in a review of hate crimes, her majesty's inspectorate of constabulary found inadequate responses in 89 of 180 cases it looked at. here is our home affairs correspondent danny shaw. hate crime comes in different forms. anti—semitic graffiti like this, an arson attack on a garden shed owned by polish people, and white powder sent to a mosque. police guidance says hate crime should be treated as a priority. 0fficers says hate crime should be treated as a priority. officers are meant to attend victims within an hour of an allegation being reported. but the inspectorate of constabulary found the police response is patchy, and in many cases not good enough. the report found too many hate crimes

we re report found too many hate crimes were wrongly recorded. it took police an average of five days to visit victims in 40% of cases it looked at. and there were no visits to hate crime victims in over one third of the 180 cases examined in detail. it is important for victims of hate crime to be asked why it is that they feel that they have been victimised, so that it is identified from the outset. because if it is identified, it can then and it should then be flagged, and that in turn determines what service they receive. two years ago there was a spike in hate crimes reported to police after the eu referendum. the inspectorate warns forces to prepare for a inspectorate warns forces to prepare fora similar inspectorate warns forces to prepare for a similar increase when britain formally leave the eu next march. the college of policing says, in light of the report, it is reviewing the training and guidance for officers on hate crime. later in the programme we will be speaking to sylvia lancaster, whose daughter sophie was a victim of hate crime. that is just after 8:00am.

donald trump has now said that he holds vladimir putin personally responsible for russian interference in the 2016 us election. at a press conference on monday, president trump seemed to put russia's denials above the conclusions of us intelligence agencies. he has since said he misspoke, suggesting no other us president has ever been tougher on russia. 0ur washington correspondent chris buckler reports. when president trump shared a stage with vladimir putin in helsinki, to some within his republican party it appeared all too cosy, particularly as he seemed to side with the russian president over america's own intelligence agencies. now, after days of criticism, in an interview with america's cbs news, he has taken a deliberately tougher line. you say you agree with us intelligence that russia meddled in the election in 2016. yeah, and i've said that before, jeff. i have said that numerous times before, and i would say that that is true, yeah. but you haven't condemned

putin specifically. do you hold him personally responsible? well, iwould, because he's in charge of the country, just like i consider myself to be responsible for things that happen in this country. so certainly, as the leader of a country, you would have to hold him responsible, yes. after he returned to washington, the president claimed he misspoke when he said at that now—notorious news conference in helsinki that he didn't see why russia would have been involved in electoral interference. but it took 2a hours to set the record straight. on twitter, donald trump said some people hated the fact that he got along well with president putin, something which he called trump derangement syndrome. and, in reaching out to russia, the president is continuing to defend his own unique style of diplomacy. the turkish government has ended the nationwide state of emergency that was imposed two years ago following a failed coup attempt, according to state media.

since 2016, tens of thousands of people were arrested or dismissed from theirjobs. the decision not to extend it for an eighth time comes weeks after president erdogan was re—elected. he had made ending the state of emergency an election pledge. school pupils are to be given lessons in mental health and healthy living. the department for education wants the lessons to become a compulsory part of the curriculum in england in two years' time. under the plans, pupils will learn about developing skills such as confidence and resilience. it comes amid growing concerns about mental health issues among young people. the huge wildfire near saddleworth moor is finally out, more than three weeks after the blaze started. greater manchester fire and rescue service says it has now withdrawn all firefighters from the blaze, which started on 2a june. the fire service say much—needed showers in the last few days have helped finally bring an end to the incident. the hosepipe ban imposed

across northern ireland is set to be lifted at noon today, just as millions of people in england are facing the first of the summer. water companies in northern ireland said there had been a fantastic response from the public to its appeals to conserve water, adding that its water treatment works were now coping comfortably with demand. in north—west england, a temporary ban by united utilities will affect 7 million people from 5 august. that is due to come in unless it rainsa that is due to come in unless it rains a lot in the meantime. police officers and members of the public who showed outstanding bravery during the london bridge and borough market terror attacks last year have been recognised by the queen. eight people, including ignacio echeverria and kirsty boden, who were killed in the london bridge attack feature on this year's civilian galla ntry list. three police officers who confronted the attackers have also been awarded. one of them is pc wayne marques,

who was blinded in one eye as terrorists swiped at him during the london bridge attack. bravery was the furthest thing from my mind. what was going through my mind was that people were hurt, dying, and what was going through my mind wasjust to dying, and what was going through my mind was just to try and help. it has been a record year for british book sales, according to new figures. sales of printed books have risen for the third year in a row, while sales of digital e—books fell. lizo mzimba reports. jamie oliver's bestseller — 2017's most popular book. it helped the british publishing industry to reach a record—breaking year. sales of printed books were up, with hardback fiction in particular seeing a big rise, of almost a third, thanks in part

to new thrillers from authors like dan brown, lee child, and shari lapena. readers fundamentally still value the printed word. publishers have invested a huge amount of time, effort, and resource into making sure that books are still really attractive, that people want to buy them, and also, that obviously they lend themselves very much to giving as gifts, as well. it is the third year in a row that physical book sales have increased, while over the same period digital book sales have decreased, demonstrating that for the time being, fears from some that ebooks might soon replace traditional books appear to be unfounded. the income from audiobooks rose by 25%, but the biggest contributor to the latest record—breaking figures is international trade. most of the british publishing industry's income, some 60%, comes from overseas. physical book sales to australasia are up 1a%, while sales to the rest

of europe, the industry's biggest market, have increased to a figure approaching almost £500 million. lizo mzimba, bbc news. if you are setting off to work shortly and dreading the prospect of trafficjams or train delays, then we have found an uplifiting alternative for you. maybe you should fly to work in a rocket suit like this instead. this jet suit is now available to buy, but it is not cheap. a custom—made one will set you back £340,000. it is made up of five microjet engines, and with a maximum flight time of three or four minutes, you will be able to fly to work as long as work isn't too far away. if we start saving now, when we are 70, we will be able to get one. if we start saving now, when we are 70, we will be able to get onem depends on the length of your commute. that does look massively cool commute. that does look massively cool. you would need to live two

minutes from home, because you would have to be able to recharge it again. you would have to avoid the speed cameras on your way in, wouldn't you 7 speed cameras on your way in, wouldn't you? i want one. it is quite terrifying. he looks quite pleased with himself. mike is at the open in carnoustie for us this morning. ifi if i were there i would push you into that bunker. thank you very much. there is no danger of my balls going in there. let me show you where we are. there is no wind this morning. it is very calm, very unusualfor morning. it is very calm, very unusual for this putt of scotland. we are by the 10th fairway, you can see some people coming over there. the crowds haven't quite arrived and iam one the crowds haven't quite arrived and i am one of the first here. that is the 10th fairway, interface when you around past the green buildings, the

sea is beyond that, basically, and in the distance you have got the village where the hospitality is, the grandstand on the 18th hole as well. it is called by the americans car—nasty, because it is regarded as the hardest of the open courses. there is a wind blowing off the north sea, undulating terrain, and the stream that crosses several of the stream that crosses several of the fairways and causes havoc on the 16th and 17th and 18th holes. it has reduced many a player to tears. remember 1999, jean van de velde of france blew up on that whole. it is all very different this year, because of the weather. it has been so because of the weather. it has been so very dry. the rough is hardly rough at all. it is like the savanna of africa. players are saying they might target the rough to get a better angle for the pin on the green. and it might not favour the

big hitters, because look at the baked earth. the really fast fairways, if i rolled this, look how far it travels. much more than usual, and that is going to make it such a fascinating... still going! such a fascinating tournament over the next few days. so hard to predict, and it will come down the tactics. who campaigned this course, which is so very different to what we are used to hear. it will be ironed off the tee. i can't imagine drivers will be taken out very often —— irons of the tee. stay out of the bunkers, mike. see you soon. did you enjoy that? particularly proud of this. everyone has been admiring this. everyone has been admiring this so much this morning. how could you not? it is pink and spot, long and neat. ithink you not? it is pink and spot, long and neat. i think it is a classic. i

think that wasn't meant to happen. i wa nt to think that wasn't meant to happen. i want to show you something. looking at the ground there at carnoustie, this aerial picture of the uk showers how much the whole of the country is changing. you have green and pleasant on one side. when was that? two months ago? parched and brown. a few months of no rain. we saw how carnoustie looks compared to normal. i guarantee golf courses across the uk are a lot brown than they were. send us pictures of your garden this morning. now and then. so many gardeners are anguished at the moment are traumatised. it will recover. matter will tell you how the sunshine will continue for little while. good morning. yes, more sunshine to come. a welcome drop of rain tonight into tomorrow. it could affect carnoustie tomorrow

and wales will be dry. temperatures into the teens to start friday. sunny spells across the south even though it is a bit hazy into the morning. the rain will be on the move. clearing away for much of scotla nd move. clearing away for much of scotland and northern ireland as we go through the second half of the day. hit and miss, go through the second half of the day. hitand miss, some go through the second half of the day. hit and miss, some gardens will avoid showers altogether, but feeling fresher in the south—east. the chance of one of two lively thunderstorms in some areas. that could cause some flooding in one or two areas. they will be swept away as this cold front moves into saturday. into the weekend, a lot of dry weather to come. we'll see the aircoming off the dry weather to come. we'll see the air coming off the atlantic so it will be desperately hot, quite co mforta ble, will be desperately hot, quite comfortable, quite pleasant with sunny spells for many. the chance of a few showers towards the south and east of the country. they will be few in number, but temperatures in the low to mid—20s. sunday brings

more cloud across scotland, northern ireland and northern england, occasional showers most likely in western scotland. much of england and wales says dry. sunshine on saturday and sunday gets warmer still. next week, the emphasis continues with those parched gardens staying parched with dry weather dominating. it is going to be another hot week the southern areas. i will have more throughout the morning. we werejust i will have more throughout the morning. we were just admiring john's lovely pink tie and i would say yours is very lovely as well. i can't figure out what is on it. flowers ? can't figure out what is on it. flowers? lots and lots of little flowers. i have not been watering them, though. not at all. thank you very much. looking at the papers now. your tyre? it is not pink. i did not get

the memo. it is understated. faded green like the grass. yes! it looks like the parched gardens. a few weeks ago, it was bright green. like the parched gardens. a few weeks ago, it was bright greenlj think that is genius. it will brighten up by the end of the summer. let's have a look at the front pages. a lovely picture there are one of the kids rescued from the thailand cave. all smiles and grey to see them. the lead story claims that theresa may wants parliament, once they go it into the summer holidays, she will hit the road and do a town hall to trying to persuade grassroots tories, but also members of the general public that her proposals for a brexit deal are the only way ahead. she is going to have a busy summer. the front page of the financial times, it is not often you see cliff richard on the front page.

i want to talk about cliff richard ina i want to talk about cliff richard in a moment. this story here, you are saying theresa may will go on a charm offensive. the new brexit minister, to flood homes and businesses with advice on no deal brexit planning. he is going to brussels today and now he is trying to lay the ground work will get information out there about brexit if we come away with no deal. 0ther if we come away with no deal. other papers are going with their front story today, not about what the government is doing but what somebody who has just let the government is doing. the daily telegraph has borisjohnson giving his resignation speech on the backbenches yesterday and he has said, it is not too late to save brexit from this disaster. the daily express as well goes with the same quote. chalet with through all the front pages of cliff richard? daily mirror, a good day to sit —— sir

cliff richard, a bad day for justice. there are lots of debate is now about the media naming people accused of crimes or who are suspect that of crimes. the sun has taken a punt on one of his old songs. it is not funny. we can't talk any more. he is very emotional after this court case. after winning the case against the bbc, he will be awarded £210,000. that will be reviewed again. the daily mail is taking a look, bbc heads must roll. he said the boss has acted as a judge and jury the boss has acted as a judge and jury and executioner and he is saying he did not go near children now. what the daily mail is saying is that bbc it acted idiotically, but i fear thejudge but is that bbc it acted idiotically, but i fear the judge but that ruling could let the police raid your home at 4am without facing public scrutiny. we will talk about this later. the other story on the

financial times, the fine for google did happen. they were fined one 4 billion euros because of their domination of the search market and how they the android software on a lot of smart phones. it is a massive fine. they had a big one not long ago that was 2 million. pressure still. a quick one to end on. in the times this morning, battle of their‘s $180 million mega— homes. talk about property prices in the uk. can you even imagine having a home that cost that much? a rooftop helipad, home to the airport helicopter. it doesn't come with a helicopter. it doesn't come with a helicopter. $180 million. the show room with lamborghinis, hurrah risk ona 17,000 room with lamborghinis, hurrah risk on a 17,000 square feet of entertainment. have a barbecue. the famous barbecue. i have never been

invited to one of those. i didn't know they were a thing until now. it was a fabulous evening that we will always remember. we saw earlier that guy whizzing on his rockets suit through traffic, potentially in london. head into any big city at night and the chances are that alongside traditional taxis, you'll also be offered the option of hopping in a rickshaw to get from a to b. as pedicabs become more popular, the government has now started a consultation on whether to regulate the industry. but in ireland, the authorities have gone a step further and proposed a ban on rickshaws due to concerns about safety and crime. 0ur ireland correspondent chris page has been for a spin in dublin. pedal power is one way it to make progress in dublin. as darkness falls, rickshaws show up, offering punters a spin around the site and drive to the bar or a journey home. thank you. so many of these have

come to the streets in the last few yea rs. come to the streets in the last few years. there are probably a few hundred out in dublin tonight, and for a lot of people, the rickshaw ride has become part of the nightlight experience here. but the drivers that of more conventional taxis say the three wheeled variety cause big problems. they will go through red lights so easily. they break all the laws on the streets. it is not the right thing to do at all. that the government and then? they should bind them. they are not licensed, they don't pay insurance, they are dangerous. the police are dealing with another issue as well. some rickshaw drivers have been dealing drugs. the last 24 months alone, we have arrested 154 individuals for the sale of drugs while they are operating as rickshaw drivers. we would hope the local authority or the government nationally will come in with some regulations are everybody knows. when it comes down to charging and

fa res, when it comes down to charging and fares, the case of the driver and passenger having an argument of what they should pay at the end of the day. the irish transport minister has proposed that rickshaws should be taken off the route altogether. this is putting in place of regulation system for drivers to get a licence would be too expensive. but the navigators behind the handlebars are trying to steer the government away from a bar. regulate is the best thing to do. the minister's statement about the decision to ban and regulate it was a lot of money. it is true. but with time, with rickshaws paying taxes, they will recover this money and start to make money the people, for everyone. they argue that a minority of untrustworthy drivers shouldn't give them all a bad name. the popular paths, you hear different opinions about whether rack —— rickshaws should be outlaws. a few friends have had a few dodgy situations on them and i have heard

a lot of bad things about them. a p pa re ntly a lot of bad things about them. apparently they sell drugs.|j a lot of bad things about them. apparently they sell drugs. i think it is ridiculous. any big city in the world has rickshaw drivers. in the world has rickshaw drivers. in the uk, the government is considering how to regulate rickshaws in london. in ireland, the peddlers ply their trade hope they are not eating for the end of the road. —— heading. this morning we are talking about potentially toxic algae. it is blooming in some of the la kes. alison freeman's in ullswaterfor us. good morning. it looks like it is setting out to be another absolutely glorious day here in the lake district, and while this fine weather has been fantastic tourism, it is causing a few problems. we know about the hosepipe ban but also this blue green hourly which can be dangerous to both humans and animals. we have heard of some

deaths associated with it. more on that story. here is the news, and travel where you are. good morning. police officers and members of the public who showed outstanding bravery during the london bridge and barrow market to attack have been honoured with civilian gallantry awards. this is one of those being recognised. he has been recognised and given a medal but taking on the attackers. he was stabbed in the head and leg. bravery was the furthest thing from my mind. what was going through my mind was that the people were hurt, dying and what was going through my mind wasjust to dying and what was going through my mind was just to try and help. ahead of the 2020 london mayoral

election, the conservatives have announced their list of candidate. includes a friend of stephen lawrence, who also put himself forward for the 2012 election. 0n the long list is cobble ranger who will be under charge of transport. supplies of 0 negative blood in london have reached their lowest levels in three years. one in 15 people have this rare blood type. just 6% of the population. the nhs says people had been missing appointments to give light because of things like the weather and the world cup, but is urging people to attend. that's taken attend. that's ta ken about attend. that's taken about the travel situation now. we still have severe delays on the piccadilly line along with minor delays on both the overground with minor delays on both the overg round and tefl with minor delays on both the overground and tefl rail. 0n the roads, northbound traffic on the black world tunnel southern approach. delays on the flyover. slow from 19 to 20 after an earlier

roadblock to remove some ducks from the carriageway. it can check on the weather. good morning. it is already a wider warm start to the day and territories will climb a little bit further than they did yesterday when we got to 27 celsius. it will stay dry, there will be some good spells of sunshine but the sunshine will be quite hazy at times because we are expecting quite a bit of high cloud from the south—west as well. already some cloud out there this morning that will clear a way from eastern areas so we should see some blue sky. the high cloud could be bright rather than sunny, choppy afternoon. top temperatures rising to between 27 and 29 celsius with just a light breeze. as the head through this evening and overnight, quite warm, muqqy evening and overnight, quite warm, muggy and uncomfortable for sleeping. temperatures dropping to between 14 and 16 celsius as we head into tomorrow morning. tomorrow it will feel increasingly humid and there could possibly be some thunderstorms breaking in front of the south as the head through the

thunder —— the afternoon into the evening. if you get a thunderstorm, there will be slow—moving. there could be a lot of rain falling within a short amount of time. maybe just a few light spots of rain on saturday, quite a bit more cloud. temperatures rising again on sunday and into next week. i will be back with the latest in half an hour. plenty more on our website. let's get that to john half an hour. plenty more on our website. let's get that tojohn and naga. hello, this is breakfast, withjon kay and naga munchetty. it is 6:30am. we will bring you all the latest news and sport in a moment. but also on breakfast this morning: we will be meeting the first black winner of miss universe gb, who dismisses the idea the competition is old—fashioned, and says she finds pageants empowering. after two teenagers captured this incredible footage of a shark circling a cornish harbour, we will hear how swimmers have been urged to stay out of the water.

and we will be talking to the bafta award—winning director who has been given exclusive access to prisoners and officers at a controversial english jail. good morning. here is a summary of today's main stories from bbc news: the european commission is urging countries across the eu to step up their preparations in case of a no—deal brexit. the commission says the failure of the negotiations with the uk would have a significant effect on all member states. the warning comes as the new brexit secretary, dominic raab, makes his first official visit to brussels to meet with the eu's chief negotiator, michel barnier. the police watchdog said forces in england and wales must tackle significant problems in handling hate crime, ahead of a possible rise in offences after brexit.

her majesty's inspectorate of constabulary found inadequate responses in 89 of 180 cases it reviewed. it found it took police an average of five days for police to visit 73 victims, while 65 were not seen at all. the government says it is clear that all hate crimes are unacceptable, and will ensure victims get the support they need. donald trump has now said that he holds vladimir putin personally responsible for russian interference in the 2016 us election. at a press conference on monday, president trump seemed to put russia's denials above the unanimous conclusion of us intelligence agencies. hehas since said he misspoke, suggesting no other us president has ever been tougher on russia. the turkish government has ended the nationwide state of emergency that was imposed two years ago following a failed coup attempt, according to state media. since 2016, tens of thousands of people were arrested or dismissed from theirjobs. the decision not to extend it for an eighth time comes weeks after president erdogan

was re—elected. he had made ending the state of emergency an election pledge. the huge wildfire near saddleworth moor is finally out, more than three weeks after the blaze started. greater manchester fire and rescue service says it has now withdrawn all firefighters from the blaze, which started on 24 june. the fire service say much—needed showers in the last few days had helped finally bring an end to the incident. the hosepipe ban imposed across northern ireland is set to be lifted at noon today, just as millions of people in england are facing the first of the summer. water companies in northern ireland said there had been a fantastic response from the public to its appeals to conserve water, adding that its water treatment works were now coping comfortably with demand. in north—west england, a temporary ban by united utilities will affect 7 million people from 5 august. police officers and members of the public who showed outstanding

bravery during the london bridge and borough market terror attacks last year have been recognised by the queen. eight people including ignacio echeverria and kirsty boden, who were killed in the london bridge attack, feature on this year's civilian galla ntry list. three police officers who confronted the attackers have also been awarded. one of them is pc wayne marques, who was blinded in one eye as terrorists swiped at him during the london bridge attack. bravery was the furthest thing from my mind. what was going through my mind was that people were hurt, dying, and what was going through my mind was just to try and help. mike is at the open in carnoustie for us this morning.

really pleased for you, mike. you didn't get my invite, then? i thought you could come and join me. it is amazing you found a bit of water on the course. and that is why iam water on the course. and that is why i am here. the water that makes carnoustie probably the most challenging of open courses. the americans call it car—nasty. it is very pretty by the 10th fairway, a few buggies and people walking past, but it is really the 16th, 17th and 18th holes where it causes havoc, because it basically dissect the fa i rwa ys because it basically dissect the fairways so the golfers have two go over it to avoid it as they get to the last green, with the pressure on. let's take you to our camera in the sky, looking down towards the

18th and also the first tee at the clubhouse. any second now, the open is about to get under way. sandy lyle will get it all going, in the same group as kaymer and andy sullivan. i will take you through the various tee times later on. in a few hours they will come past the 10th hole. tiger woods is back at his first open since 2015, and carnoustie has a very special place for a certain rory mcilroy. the last time the open was played here, mcilroy was still a teenager, and won the silver medal for the best finish by an amateur. that kick—started a career that has seen him win four major titles so far — the last one, though, back in 2014. i obviously remember that week very fondly, for different reasons. i

didn't know what to expect, or the journey i was about to embark on. so obviously i want to add to my collection, and it would be nice to win at carnoustie, where i was able to pick up the silver medal a few yea rs to pick up the silver medal a few years ago. how about this for a story from this year's championship. england's ashton turner had a rare form of cerebal palsy as a child. he couldn't walk properly and had to wear a crash helmet at school. his parents gave him a golf club when he was three, to help improve his balance. but he recovered by the time he was six, and is now about to play his first major tournament. it was difficult growing up, obviously. got diagnosed with a mild form of cerebral palsy when i was young, and so doctors' first thoughts were i might not be able to walk properly, pretty much. i was too young to remember any of that, which is probably for the best. so i fell into doing physio. my dad thought what better way

to practise balance than golf. and it went from there. i talked to fans about how they were feeling and who might all away this time. the great thing about the campsite, it attracts a really young crowd. kirsty, who is your money on?” would really like justin kirsty, who is your money on?” would really likejustin rose to do well, because he went to my school, soiam well, because he went to my school, so i am rooting for him. ayr well, because he went to my school, so i am rooting for him. aerason day, the australians. phil mickelson and rory mcilroy. fleetwood. ijust think there will be hidden surprises tomorrow. so my fellow campers under the stars. looking forward to another night under canvas? we are

glamping. our all-time favourite, sergio. but i do think rickie fowler deserved the win. here's a few selected tee times to watch out for. reigning championjordan speith tees off with justin rose just before 10:00am this morning. rory mcilroy is off at 12:53pm this afternoon and tiger woods has his latest ever start at an open championship, he goes at 3:20pm. full and continuous coverage over on bbc sport from 6:30, bbc radio 5 live from midday, highlights on bbc two at 8:00 tonight. to the tour de france, and geraint thomas has the yellow jersey. the welshman was the fastest man up the mountain, securing the biggest stage win of his career in the alps. he is now a minute and 25 seconds ahead of teammate chris froome, in second. the liverpool and england midfielder

alex 0xlade—chamberlain is expected to miss the majority of the upcoming premier league season. he injured his knee during the champions league semi—final with roma in april. that meant he also missed the world cup. liverpool bossjurgen klopp says they knew the injury was bad. they have just waited until now to revealjust how bad it actually is. some more positive news for liverpool. they have agreed a fee of almost £67 million for the brazilian goalkeeper alisson. he currently plays for roma, and if the deal goes through, it will be a world—record fee for a keeper. celtic are through to the second round of the qualifying stages of the champions league. they beat armenian side alashkert 3—0 in the second leg and progress 6—0 on aggregate. plans to sell wembley stadium have been called ridiculous by the former england player gary neville.

an offer of £600 million is on the table, and the fa says the sale could transform community facilities. neville was typically forthright with his opinion when he spoke to a group of mps. the fa feel, to fund a grass—roots programme they have to sell a national asset, a national stadium. it's quite simply ridiculous. so i completely agree with everything you put in that statement before the question finally came. this is a nonsense. it's a nonsense. and this is not me being emotional about wembley. i'm not emotional about wembley, forget wembley. what is it next? st george's park goes because we had to build another 500 pitches? and then what happens after that? this isn't long—term thinking. and sam warburton has been described as one of the best british and irish lions captains of all time.

the former wales captain has retired from all forms of rugby at the age ofjust 29. he hasn't played for nearly a year, after knee and neck surgery. soi so i think they are just about under way. i heard a bit of noise from the crowd on the 18th in the distance, about 500m away. i am in the rough, but as i was saying earlier, it is very different this year. it was of the dry weather, the rough is in very rough at all. we will be back later. it is my kind of rough, that. the government wants to make lessons in mental health compulsory in primary and secondary schools from 2020. so how might that work in practice, and are formal lessons for all children the best way forward? let's speak now to emily cherry from the children's charity barnardo's. thank you very much for coming in. thank you very much for coming in. thank you. this is something a lot of people have wanted to see for a long time. why do you think it will

make a difference, lessons in mental health? yes, so bernardo's has long campaigned for this. mental health is something which really significantly affect so many children and young people. we know from our own work in schools, we have a programme which works in school and how to manage the ups and downs of emotions is so important, and taking the whole school approach to that so that children understand it is healthy, natural and normal to sometimes feel stressed and worried. it is really important. 30 odd years ago, when i was in school, personal social health education, pshe, it was called. is it not part of everyday curriculum ? was called. is it not part of everyday curriculum? so pshe is on the curriculum but it is not mandated, and the new programme from 2020 is called relationship and health education, so it takes some elements of the pshe curriculum and

some elements of relationship and sex education. but we are really pleased to see greater focus on things like consent and harassment, and lots of focus on online safety, so vital people get that information. where are the resources for this? when it comes to identifying mental health and emotional problems, it is not done in the classroom, but from observation over a long period of time. and getting the nuances of behaviour, the tiny parts which some schools don't have the funding or the number of staff to be able to do that. that is why it is really important that this is the first step, and it is a welcome first step. this is guidance from teachers. what now needs to come from government is teacher training, support for teachers, good—quality classroom support for teachers, good—quality class room resources support for teachers, good—quality classroom resources that can help to teach this well. it means, and the government have got an approach to mental health which is about the new green paper, and we are expecting another announcement on that imminently about how they will train teachers in things like mental

health first aid. so things like really reacting in the classroom to those issues. what might a lesson about mental health be like for a child, and practically what will they be talking about? so things like how do you regulate your emotions, so we have a phrase called do turtle. so think like a turtle and breathe and chill. meditation and breathe and chill. meditation and mindfulness, those kinds of techniques that you can really teach children and help them to regulate their emotions. is there a danger, it isa their emotions. is there a danger, it is a fine line, obviously, but is there a danger that by making children more aware of the dangers of mental health and the realities of mental health and the realities of mental health problems, that you kind of not invite them to have mental health problems, but it makes them more vulnerable, in a way? for a child who is experiencing mental health problems, understanding it can be natural and normal and there is support available for you in the classroom and in the home via mental health services can be really helpful to reduce that stigma. when we talk about it in the classroom,

we talk about it in the classroom, we are helping others to understand, so if your friend we are helping others to understand, so if yourfriend is we are helping others to understand, so if your friend is concerned about mental health, it helps children support theirfriends mental health, it helps children support their friends as well. it is so vital we do this. but if there is a child with normal everyday worries, could they think suddenly i have mental health problems? is that a risk? that is why teachers with the right training, resources and support can do this in an age—appropriate way so they don't scare children and they help them to understand what is happening. thank you for coming in. here is matt with a look at this morning's weather. i'm really enjoying saying it is likely outside. good morning. a fine start across many parts of the uk. this is not farfrom bristol. the high cloud around that showers up on our satellite imagery. the shunt —— sunshine will be hazy for some of you today. there is some rain and thatis you today. there is some rain and that is the cloud edging closer to north—west scotland, which by the end of the day, the highlands and

islands could see some rain. some longer sunny spells here and there but cloud will follow—up. seabreeze across eastern scotland, north—east england, and maybe at the isolated showers. pleasantly warm and sunshine is not a little bit on the hot side towards the south—east. into the 20s at carnoustie. lots of cloud and skies, a bit of a breeze developing later this afternoon. it is tomorrow we could see some rain affect the course. that rain comes tonight across parts of scotland and northern ireland. around five to ten millimetres of rain in some lots. every drop is welcome at the moment. that pushes into north—west wales at the daylight tomorrow morning. dry tonight and a fairly muggy night towards the south and east, 16 to 17 celsius into the morning. it will be sunny across the south but at the isolated and pretty intense

thunderstorms to the south—east corner. the risk of some minor flooding for them. scotland, northern ireland, morning showers easing away. plenty of cloud around. england and wales, a few more showers in the northern western showers in the northern western showers as the head into that second pa rt showers as the head into that second part of the day. not everyone is seeing the rain, but showers towards the south—east as the go towards rain and it into saturday and the weekend. a lot of dry weather this weekend, the chance of showers across some southern areas through the day some breaks in the cloud, sunny spells coming through but an atla ntic sunny spells coming through but an atlantic breeze coming in and so temperatures will have dropped relative to today and tomorrow. talking about high teens, low 20s, scotland, northern ireland, the 20s at the go to the south—east corner. sunday, another dry day to england and wales, only a chance of a shower in the north. with some sunny spells at average is on the rise. into next week we could see them back above 30

degrees. back to you. thank you! it is a kind of whether you want to lie back if you get the time and have a read. time to get your books ready for the summer holidays. apparently we are buying more than ever before. they just have got more pricey, have they? we mightfind they? we might find out. stayjune. overall, we spent nearly 6 billion pounds on books and journals last year, which the publishers association say is a record. also, audiobooks saw a particularly big increase, sales up by 25%, but it was still the good old physical book that is most likely to persuade us to part with our cash. sales were up 5% compared with e—book sales increasing byjust 3%. so in ourdigitalage, why are hardcopies holding out? it is not the same as having a book

in your hand and turning the pages. it is something nice about seeing all your favourite books. this is for my granddaughter. this isjust the kind of thing i like to do with her isjust read her book. you can't do that with a ereader. that speak to stephen lotinga who is the chief executive of the publishers association. we buying more books than we were previously or are we just spending more? both is the short answer to that. differentjohn rose, different figures, but particularly in the printed word, seeing a huge amount of books being bought. when you had to decide what kind of books they are publishing, how important is it these days that

it might turn into a block us to film or tv series at some point? that is definitely part of the consideration. we have to sell rights to tv, film, etc. in reality, no one really knows what makes a grey blockbuster. you find when you look at sales and the big sellers that actually some of the ones doing well and one that were written a few yea rs well and one that were written a few years ago have become tv series and then end up back on the shelves with a fancy new cover. absolutely. when a fancy new cover. absolutely. when a book is turn into a film or into tv, it usually drives the sales. a grey pa rt tv, it usually drives the sales. a grey part of the way the industry works together. that might have changed a little bit. authors are to think about the kind of books they are writing. still a lot of concern for authors that they are seeing a decline in the amount of money they are getting out of the books they are getting out of the books they are writing. votes in a paper saying just that. why is that happening?”

think there is probably more focus on the very best, the highest stellar authors in terms of where money is going to and there is a discussion that needs to be had about we need to make sure a pipeline of great authors is coming through. 0ur pipeline of great authors is coming through. our members are investing a lot of money to make sure the big names of tomorrow are supported as well. children book sales are down. even though that lady said the physical book is the best thing for a child, sales are down. what is going on? we didn't have harry potter last year. over the last five yea rs, potter last year. over the last five years, children's books are up, which is great. 0bviously years, children's books are up, which is great. obviously we want to get as many children reading as we can. do you see much children book change on ebooks? i think people still prefer to sit down with their charred and have a printed book in front of them. try not to have too much screen time. thank you very

much, grow three. —— stephen lotinga. we have had fires and hosepipe bans. another new problem to talk about is toxic algae. alison freeman is in ullswater in the lake district this morning. you need to stay out of the water, at least some of us do. yes, that's right. it is an absolutely glorious day so people have been drawn to the water. while this warm weather has been greater tourism, it has cause problems to our water supplies. we know that there is a hosepipe ban possibly coming in the next four weeks or so and is blue green algae. it can be really serious for humans and the anama is the effect that it has on them, but it is not always that easy to find. it is not always that easy to spot. but blue green algae can cause a great deal of harm. the green sheen

on the surface of the water and a scum at the late — and other tell—tale signs. the algae is always there but the persistent dry spell means the temperature has risen, causing it to bloom, and it is these blooms which are toxic. it can be fatal for blooms which are toxic. it can be fatalfor animals if blooms which are toxic. it can be fatal for animals if they drink it with reports of dogs dying in england and scotland this summer. the message to lake users is simple. we all want to go into the lakes and enjoy them when it is warm. it is a ha rd enjoy them when it is warm. it is a hard message, but those lakes where we see blue green algae, we encourage people to not go swimming, not let their dogs in there. they might vomit. 0ur not let their dogs in there. they might vomit. our advice is if your dog is unwell, go to the vet and get some advice. with us as humans, if you follow it there is a chance of vomiting, you might get rashes on your skin vomiting, you might get rashes on yourskin and vomiting, you might get rashes on your skin and the best thing to do is seek medical advice. i am a slim andi is seek medical advice. i am a slim and i walk my dog regularly in the la kes and i walk my dog regularly in the lakes here, and i am not going in the lake. i am being careful where my dog the lake. i am being careful where

goes the lake. i am being careful where my dog goes and that is something i wa nt to my dog goes and that is something i want to protect myself and my dog andi want to protect myself and my dog and i encourage others to do the same. it is now conform that windermere is the fourth lake to contain blue green algae. there have also been numerous reports this year of the algae in locks in northern scotla nd of the algae in locks in northern scotland and other bodies in water in east anglia, london, kent, 0xford and wales. signs have been put up here to warn people of the dangers. shower their children when they have beenin shower their children when they have been in the water, but it is not stopping us from enjoying the water. will you go in all your dog?” stopping us from enjoying the water. will you go in all your dog? i would like to, because it is not. but if it is not safe, it is probably not the best thing to do. it is too nice a day. it is too nice. i don't mind. 0ne saying that later on. a day. it is too nice. i don't mind. one saying that later on. the lakes are obviously a magnet for water lovers, wanting to cool off in his unusually hot weather. testing for algae has been stepped up this summer to try to keep people and

animals safe. iamjoined by i am joined by a catheter by the environment agency. the algae is elusive this morning and we can't see any. that meat is not in the water any more? no, it is a naturally occurring phenomenon, a lwa ys naturally occurring phenomenon, always in the water environment. what you get and the conditions comic clumps together and forms a blue morris scum and that is a situation that can cause the problems. how dangerous is it fast and for our pets? for both humans and for our pets? for both humans and animals in livestock and pets it can cause a number of conditions, which is itchy eyes, a rash on the skin, and upset tummy, a range of other conditions, and they vary in severity as well. what is the message the people who wanted come and enjoy the water? enjoy the la kes. and enjoy the water? enjoy the lakes. it is a beautiful spot. if you see a scum, don't swim through it, don't...

you see a scum, don't swim through it, don't. .. potshot you see a scum, don't swim through it, don't... potshotanimals you see a scum, don't swim through it, don't... potshot animals out of the water and report it to our incident hotline. thank you very much. the message is clear, really. just a out of the what if you possibly can and keep yourself and your animals safe. don't swim in the scum. simple. that is general advice in life. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. see you soon. good morning from bbc london news. i'm sara 0rchard. police officers and members of the public who showed outstanding bravery during the london bridge and borough market terror attack have been honoured with civilian galla ntry awards. pc wayne marques is just one of those being recognised. he has been awarded the george medal for taking on all three attackers at once, with just his baton. he was slashed multiple times and stabbed in the head and the leg. bravery was the furthest thing from

my mind. what was going through my mind was that people were hurt, dying and what was going through my mind wasjust to dying and what was going through my mind was just to try and help. ahead of the 2020 london mayoral election, the conservatives have announced their list of candidates. it includes the friend of stephen laurence, duwayne brooks, who also put himself forward for the 2012 election. also on the longlist is kulveer ranger, who was in charge of transport under former mayor borisjohnson. supplies of 0 negative blood in london have reached their lowest levels in three years. one in 15 people have this rare blood type, just 6% of the population. the nhs says people have been missing appointments to give blood because of things like the weather and world cup, but is urging people to attend. let's have a look at the travel situation now. 0n the tubes this morning, severe delays on the picadilly line along with minor delays

on the 0verground and tfl rail. 0nto the roads, there's northbound traffic on the blackwall tunnel southern approach with delays from the woolwich road flyover. there's traffic on the a13 building westbound heading out of dagenham into barking. let's have a check on the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. good morning. it is already a rather warm start to the day and temperatures will climb a little bit further than they did yesterday when we got to 27 degrees celsius. it will stay dry, there will be some good spells of sunshine but the sunshine will be quite hazy at times because we're expecting quite a bit of high cloud from the south—west as well. already some cloud out there this morning that will clear a way from eastern areas so we should see some blue sky. the high cloud could be bright rather than sunny for much of the afternoon. top temperatures rising to between 27 and 29 degrees celsius with just a light breeze. as we head through this evening and overnight,

quite warm, muggy and uncomfortable for sleeping. staying dry of course. temperatures dropping to between 14 and 16 celsius as we head into tomorrow morning. tomorrow, it will feel increasingly humid and there could possibly be some thunderstorms spreading in from the south as we head through the afternoon into the evening. if you get a thunderstorm, there will be slow—moving. there could be a lot of rain falling within a short amount of time. for that reason, we have met up with the overt —— yellow weather reading. maybe just a few light spots of rain on saturday, quite a bit more cloud. temperatures rising again on sunday and into next week. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. there's plenty more on our website at the usual address. now, though, it's back tojohn and naga. bye for now. good morning. welcome to breakfast, with naga munchetty and jon kay. 0ur headlines today: preparing for the

possibility of no deal. theresa may and the eu warn both sides need to get ready in case brexit negotiations fail. the police watchdog warns brexit could trigger a spike in hate crimes, and says victims across england and wales are being let down by police. president trump backtracks again. he says he holds vladimir putin personally responsible for russian interference in the american elections two years ago. a record year for british book sales. we will ask what keeps you turning the pages. in a tough time for retailers, how are sports direct getting on? we will find out in a few minutes. welcome to the open championship, at carnoustie, where rory mcilroy says he wants to create more good memories. sandy lyle hit the opening tee shot just after 6am this morning. the sun

is just starting to warm things up. a pleasantly warm and dry day across many parts of the uk, but some rain and the forecast for tonight and tomorrow. i will have all the details here on breakfast. the european commission is instructing countries across the eu to prepare for a no—deal brexit. european leaders are predicting that failure to reach an agreement with the uk could lead to serious consequences for governments, travellers and businesses. the warning comes as the new brexit secretary, dominic raab, travels to brussels to meet with eu chief negotiator michel barnier for the first time. what sort of welcome can he expect? in a moment we will talk to our europe resporter gavin lee, in brussels. but first, chris mason is in westminster. good morning. very interesting language being used around no deal. it feels like a no deal result is

closer. there is a sense that no deal is being talked about much more often. the prime minister insists it is no more likely than it has ever been, but the government seems to be showing its hand publicly far more, which is something brexiteers have been pushing for, because it is pragmatic and reminds russells that the uk is serious, to use that old cliche, that no deal is better than a bad deal. we have learnt 70 documents have been published, setting out preparations for no deal. for us as ordinary citizens, and also for businesses. all of this as dominic raab prepares for that first visit to brussels. we are told bea first visit to brussels. we are told be a full meeting he will have with michel barnier, the eu's chief negotiator, before a bit of what amounts to brexit speed dating, are getting to know you dinner. it is

quite a day. gavin, we were asking the question earlier, we were hoping that dominic raab enjoys a challenge. he needs to make friends yet be tough. certainly listening to michel barnier‘s team, they are hoping privately that he shows up more than david davis, his pet assessor, because there is a bit of private bridge that they felt during the talks he could have showed up more “— the talks he could have showed up more —— private umbrage. so we will get a sense of the pace these talks will now take, and the clarity that eu leaders want. the other thing todayis eu leaders want. the other thing today is this preparative is notice. this 15 page document, we have seen a d raft of this 15 page document, we have seen a draft of it, urging all 27 remaining members of the eu to up their game when it comes to thinking about contingency plans. it is not quite a how—to when it comes to dealing with the shock of the fallout, but what if there were

suddenly passenger rights issues on aeroplanes, queues with lorries at customs borders, and those other sorts of things they are willing people to consider. it is published the same time dominic raab arrives here today for those talks. coincidence? you may very well think that, i couldn't possibly comment. there is not much coincidence in timing, in politics, is there? the police watchdog says forces in england and wales must tackle significant problems in handling hate crime, ahead of a possible rise in offences after brexit. it looked at how forces responded to allegations and found that often police took up to five days before they visited hate crime victims, and in some cases didn't respond at all. here is our home affairs correspondent danny shaw. hate crime comes in different forms — anti—semitic graffiti, like this, an arson attack on a garden shed owned by polish people, and white powder sent to a mosque. police guidance says hate crime should be treated as a priority. officers are meant to attend victims within an hour of an allegation being reported.

but the inspectorate of constabulary found the police response is patchy, and in many cases not good enough. the report found too many hate crimes were wrongly recorded. it took police an average of five days to visit victims in 40% of cases it looked at. and there were no visits to hate crime victims in over one third of the 180 cases examined in detail. it's important for victims of hate crime to be asked why it is that they think they've been victimised, so that it's identified from the outset. because if it is identified, it can then and it should then be flagged, and that in turn determines what service they receive. two years ago, there was a spike in hate crimes reported to police after the eu referendum. the inspectorate warns forces to prepare for a similar increase when britain formally leave the eu next march. the college of policing says, in light of the report, it is reviewing the training

and guidance for officers on hate crime. donald trump has now said that he holds vladimir putin personally responsible for russian interference in the 2016 us election. at a press conference on monday, president trump seemed to put russia's denials above the conclusions of us intelligence agencies. he has since said he misspoke, suggesting no other us president has ever been tougher on russia. 0ur washington correspondent chris buckler reports. when president trump shared a stage with vladimir putin in helsinki, to some within his republican party it appeared all too cosy, particularly as he seemed to side with the russian president over america's own intelligence agencies. now, after days of criticism, in an interview with america's cbs news, he has taken a deliberately tougher line. you say you agree with us intelligence that russia meddled in the election in 2016.

yeah, and i've said that before, jeff. i have said that numerous times before, and i would say that that is true, yeah. but you haven't condemned putin specifically. do you hold him personally responsible? well, iwould, because he's in charge of the country, just like i consider myself to be responsible for things that happen in this country. so certainly, as the leader of a country, you would have to hold him responsible, yes. after he returned to washington, the president claimed he misspoke when he said at that now—notorious news conference in helsinki that he didn't see why russia would have been involved in electoral interference. on twitter, donald trump said some people hated the fact that he got along well with president putin, something which he called trump derangement syndrome. and, in reaching out to russia, the president is continuing to defend his own unique style of diplomacy. the huge wildfire near

saddleworth moor is finally out, more than three weeks after the blaze started. greater manchester fire and rescue service says it has now withdrawn all firefighters from the blaze, which started on 24 june. the fire service say much—needed showers in the last few days had helped finally bring an end to the incident. the hosepipe ban imposed across northern ireland is set to be lifted at noon today, just as millions of people in england are facing the first of the summer. water companies in northern ireland said there had been a fantastic response from the public to its appeals to conserve water, adding that its water treatment works were now coping comfortably with demand. in north—west england, a temporary ban by united utilities will affect 7 million people from 5 august. u nless we

unless we get a load of rain in the meantime. that is not what matt says is going to happen. police officers and members of the public who showed outstanding bravery during the london bridge and borough market terror attacks last year have been recognised by the queen. eight people including ignacio echeverria and kirsty boden, who were killed in the london bridge attack, feature on this year's civilian galla ntry list. three police officers who confronted the attackers have also been awarded. one of them is pc wayne marques, who was blinded in one eye as terrorists swiped at him during the london bridge attack. bravery was the furthest thing from my mind. what was going through my mind was that people were hurt, dying, and what was going through my mind was just to try and help. it has been a record year for british book sales, according to new figures. sales of printed books have risen for the third year in a row, while sales of digital e—books fell. the publishing industry as a whole is now worth £5.7 billion. if you are setting off to work

shortly, and dreading the prospect of trafficjams or train delays, then we have found an uplifiting alternative for you. maybe you should fly to work in a rocket suit like this, instead. this jet suit is now available to buy, but it is not cheap. a custom—made one will set you back £340,000. it is made up of five microjet engines, and with a maximum flight time of three or four minutes, you will be able to fly to work, as long as work isn't too far away. these micro jet engines are obviously strapped on, ijust these micro jet engines are obviously strapped on, i just wonder about refuelling. you said you have to live three or four minutes from the office, but you also have to get back. a bit humiliating walking home with your helmet under your arm, isn't it? we will get one

eventually. matt will have the weather shortly. ten days ago, the cabinet met at the prime minister's country estate, chequers, to hammer out a final position on brexit that they could all agree on. but since then, we have had high—profile government resignations, daily rumours of plots against theresa may's leadership, and a string of firey debates and passionate speeches in the house of commons. it just goes itjust goes on and on, doesn't it? 0ne itjust goes on and on, doesn't it? one has to wonder, now, who is in charge? who is running britain? it's time for people to put aside the ideology and the nonsenses, invariably that come from not inhabiting the real world. invariably that come from not inhabiting the realworld. can invariably that come from not inhabiting the real world. can the prime minister informed the house that what point it was decided that brexit means remain? at absolutely

no point, because brexit continues to mean brexit. after two years of ditherand to mean brexit. after two years of dither and delay, the government has sunk intoa dither and delay, the government has sunk into a mire of chaos and division. the agreement that was supposed to unite the cabinet led to the cabinet falling apart within 48 hours. it is not too late to save brexit. we have time, in these negotiations. we have changed tack once, and we can change again. ten days, it feels like ten years, doesn't it? i need coffee just to calm down and! i need more than coffee. we are joined now by two people who were on opposite sides of the referendum debate. what do they make of brexit, two years on? terry king is a businesswoman. she voted to leave. mike travis is a nurse. to try to answer some of their questions, we are joined by anand menon from the independent think—tank uk in a changing europe. we will get some context with what

is going on. you might have some questions. tell us about how you voted and how you are feeling out. i voted to leave and how i'm feeling now is, i thought it was a terrible dereliction of duty in the first race, not having any plans when you call a referendum and they think it isa call a referendum and they think it is a shambles at the moment. it is embarrassing to watch how people are behaving. but you still leave, yes? even more so now. i voted to remain. my approach has not changed. in fa ct, my approach has not changed. in fact, over the past couple of months, it has been more reinforced that we should remain because what i see now is a complete failure of politics and leadership, a derelict

duty to the way it, to the working people, the population of the uk. you are on different sides of the debate but you share the view that things arejust debate but you share the view that things are just not right. yes. what would you need to see now. to make things right? never understood why ita things right? never understood why it a single party approach. six out of ten labour mps have got constituencies that voted to leave and seven out of ten conservative ones. so why wasn't it a joint approach in the first place? i think people, mps should get together and have a single approach. like a unity government? on this particular issue, we don't have do agree on other things, but in terms of the brexit approach, i think it should bea brexit approach, i think it should be a cross—party thing. brexit approach, i think it should be a cross-party thing. do you think thatis be a cross-party thing. do you think that is likely to work in terms of one party? 0ne cabinet? that is likely to work in terms of one party? one cabinet? a lot of mps have been suggesting a national

unity. mps are very tribal, and even mps to agree on some things to do with brexit sometimes find it hard to work together because those party loyalties tend to get in the way. you are absolutely right. the problem with brexit is it cuts straight through both parties are neither have a united front. both parties are divided and that makes it hard. the use of word dereliction of duty. what you think would be done to help improve the situation? i think the only thing that we can do is tojust i think the only thing that we can do is to just take a i think the only thing that we can do is tojust take a step backwards, ta ke do is tojust take a step backwards, take a breath and look at what we are trying to do. i still don't understand why we are dominated by an eternal within the party that is affecting their lives and future lives. as a nurse of the nhs, we have now become in terms of its national recruitment of nurses and healthcare staff, so unfriendly to the rest of the world that no one

will come and work here now. that is the issue. do you accept we have two leave ? the issue. do you accept we have two leave? one of the big things is i have worked a lot on committees and roles and stuff like that, and one thing i know about elections is that it isa thing i know about elections is that it is a change of the constitution is the need to, most big organisations will have levels which is usually two thirds of the membership, the votes in order to change in such a way. this is not, a 52- 48 bit is change in such a way. this is not, a 52— 48 bit is not a decision because, i was at a conference the other week led there was potentially a lot of young people there and were saying, i never got the chance to vote two years ago. we will have a big debate and two thirds of that audience voted to stay or to stay. the problem is the vote has happened and those who bothered to vote

voted, those who didn't perhaps are speaking up now. i'm sure you both voted. the problem is now we are looking at a deal made on the vote that was cast, and we are talking about the prospect of a no deal. what does that mean? how can the country, those who did vote, come away with nothing? no deal still means we left. it would be faithful to the referendum outcome. what happens is basically we haven't tied up happens is basically we haven't tied up any loose ends of being a member, so up any loose ends of being a member, so how much money we should pay, what happens to northern ireland, not the rights of citizens. at the moment, if the talks break down, we end up ceasing to be a member state. it would be acrimonious. you both have a question. i suppose my question really is about why we haven't prepared or we have an started with basic like world trade

0rganization rules. 0ne do we start at that level and say, why can't we make those more amenable? rather than this acrimonious carry on that we seem to have between the eu negotiators, i just don't we seem to have between the eu negotiators, ijust don't understand why they are treating us like the bad guys. i'm not sure they are treating it like the bad guys. what some people say about the world trade organization, the argument against is that... if we did that, it would get in the way of our ability to ship both people and it's for ourengines ability to ship both people and it's for our engines across the channel because we have customs checks, tariffs to pay and it would make it a lot slower. the impact on the economy would be quite deep. there are so many figures. a lot of debate has been around manufacture and industries, but the real money, the real national income from our work

is on financial services, and financial services are under huge pressure now about whether they stay in london or leave. and if they leave, that is all the credibility of being a safe place to put your money, and if they go, so does all the investment. what can we do to protect that? i do think anyone expects the whole of the city of london to de— camp to continental europe, but you are right that the services industries, and notjust financial services, but 80% of the economy are not really covered under the deal, so there is no preferential deal will stop the reasons that is theresa may's interpreted the referendum as we should be under eu laws. to make services with the cross borders, you need common laws. that is why the government has decided to not make special service at is. the last ten days to like ten years. as normal punters, what you think of what is going on, the general picture, that

is unfolding before our eyes?” think it is absolutely disgraceful. these people are paid to run the country and they are acting like children. i look at boris and i look at the raj and that lot, —— farage. i want my country back. this is not the country i grew up in. it does not value people and will not value the rule of law. thank you both are coming in and thank you very much. you know what i think we need to do? we need to sit back, relax. we have a lovely image for you now. this is the lake district. that is very beautiful. very peaceful, very calming. the sun is shining on us this morning, or at least those there. will it continue to do that for the rest of us? it will do for many today. even the

opposite side of northern england looking pretty calm this morning. we have high cloud around, so it will bea have high cloud around, so it will be a case of sunny spells today. ltd ona be a case of sunny spells today. ltd on a hazy side and that is because we have seen areas of cloud drifting from the south in the night. at the same time, there will be some welcome rain into tomorrow. not much today, most will stay dry. seabreeze is developing in eastern parts of scotland, north—east england. there isa scotland, north—east england. there is a chance of a shower. most places will stay dry. before we see rain arrived from that cloud into what the highlands. still pleasantly warm across scotland, northern ireland, northern england. a bit on the hot side towards the south—east. into the 20s at carnoustie for the opening day of the open. added a sunshine peeking through. tomorrow, a bit of rain to dampen a rough day.

that rain comes in at across scotla nd that rain comes in at across scotland and northern ireland. about ten, five millimetres. some of the rain pushes into north and west england and north west wales. much stays drier, a little bit on the muqqy stays drier, a little bit on the muggy side towards the south—east corner. we are likely to be sunshine to friday morning. most places in the north starting cloudy. some becoming few in number as we go to the afternoon. a scattering of showers. cannot guarantee every garden will see a welcome drop of rain. there is the chance of the torrential thunderstorm down towards the south—east corner with the risk of flooding. temperatures down a little because we bring atlantic air back through the latest starter friday into saturday as the cold front worked its way southwards and original high—pressure move in. there is still the remnants of that cold front on saturday. we could see

one or two showers through the day, an isolated light shower through the north. the mist majority will stay dry with sunny spells and pleasant. canberra could hire teens low 20s. mid 20s in the far south. into sunday, we continue to see the atla ntic sunday, we continue to see the atlantic have an influence across scotland, northern england. more cloud here so the occasional showers, a burst of rain in the western highlands. much will stay dry, sunshine at times and temperatures climbing once again, up 28 degrees in the london area. if anything, as a going to 28 degrees in the london area. if anything, as we go into the start of the week, we continued this overriding dry story, and temperatures climbing a little bit again, but it is a england and wales, noted in the london area above 30 degrees on monday and tuesday. no sign of attending. thank you very much indeed. not a bad thing. the uk's largest sports—goods retailer, sports direct has just reported their full year results. it has been shrouded in controversy.

that is an understatement. one of the things has been kennett reputation bounce back after the revelations of how some of its workers were treated in warehouses around the country. they have that ongoing strategy. they have the general retail climate to have to handle as well. when you look at these results of how they did last year, it is not a very clear picture for them either. there'd profits have bounced back overall. they will look to highlight the underlying profits being up by a third on last year. they are still making more than £150 million over the year when you look at that. but one thing that they have been doing over recent yea rs they have been doing over recent years is picking up stakes in other retailers, buying other brands. they have a stake in debenhams, and that is costing more than £80 million because of outside office high street story. if you take that into

account, they make a loss on last year. it is not quite straightforward but it does reflect the different parts of the retail picture that their underlying business, they sell cheaper clothes generally. but on the whole, it is difficult for them at the moment. uk retail sales were actually down over the whole of last year. i will talk to somebody in about half an hour. it will be interesting to see whether they think these are positive or not. and whether that sta ke positive or not. and whether that stake in debenhams was a good idea. do they have plans to do something with it? i look forward to that. news headlines injust a moment. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london news. i'm sara orchard. police officers and members of the public who showed outstanding bravery during the london bridge and borough market terror attack have been honoured with civilian galla ntry awards.

pc wayne marques is just one of those being recognised. he has been awarded the george medal for taking on all three attackers at once, with just his baton. he was slashed multiple times and stabbed in the head and the leg. bravery was the furthest thing from my mind. reflecting on the whole situation, it isa reflecting on the whole situation, it is a silver lining to what was a tragic event. notjust me, but my collea g u es tragic event. notjust me, but my colleagues and my family and the people that support this can take some form of comfort and pride. ahead of the 2020 london mayoral election, the conservatives have announced their list of candidates. it includes the friend of stephen laurence, duwayne brooks, who also put himself forward for the 2012 election. also on the longlist is kulveer ranger, who was in charge of transport under former mayor borisjohnson. the capital's first ever walking action plan is being launched today by the government. research by the greater london authority has shown that if every londoner walked or cycled for 20 minutes a day,

it would save the nhs £1.7 billion in treatment costs over the next 25 years. the plan is to make london the most walkable city in the world. let's have a look at the travel situation now. on the tubes this morning, we severe delays on the picadilly line with minor delays on the overground and tfl rail. on the a40, there's eastbound traffic from greenford towards hanger lane. in croydon, park hill road is closed between fairfield road and addiscombe road following a police incident. let's have a check on the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. good morning. it's already a rather warm start to the day and temperatures will climb just that little bit further than they did yesterday when we got to 27 degrees celsius. of course, it will stay dry, there will be some good spells of sunshine, but the sunshine will be quite hazy at times because we're expecting quite a bit of high cloud to spread in from the south—west as well.

already some cloud out there this morning that will clear a way from eastern areas so we should see some blue sky. the high cloud could be bright rather than sunny for much of the afternoon. top temperatures, though, rising to between 27 and 29 degrees celsius with just a light breeze. as we head through this evening and overnight, it will feel quite warm, muggy and uncomfortable for sleeping. staying dry of course. temperatures dropping to between 14 and 16 degrees celsius as we head into tomorrow morning. tomorrow, it will feel increasingly humid and there could possibly be some thunderstorms spreading in from the south as we head through the afternoon and into the evening. but many of us will stay dry. if you get a thunderstorm, there will be slow—moving. there could be a lot of rain falling within a short amount of time. for that reason, we have a met office yellow weather warning. maybe just a few light spots of rain on saturday, quite a bit more cloud. temperatures rising again on sunday and into next week. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour.

plenty more on our website at the usual address. now, though, it's back to naga and john. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and naga munchetty. here is a summary of this morning's main stories from bbc news: the european commission is urging countries across the eu to step up their preparations in case of a no—deal brexit. the commission says the failure of the negotiations with the uk would have a significant effect on all member states. the warning comes as the new brexit secretary, dominic raab, makes his first official visit to brussels to meet with the eu's chief negotiator, michel barnier. will go a the police watchdog says forces in england and wales must tackle significant problems in handling hate crime, ahead of a possible rise in offences after brexit. it looked at how forces responded to allegations and found that often police took up to five days before they visited hate crime victims, and in some cases didn't respond at all. let's now speak to wendy williams,

who led the review. thank you for talking to us on bbc brea kfast. thank you for talking to us on bbc breakfast. what struck you the most from this review? we wanted to look at what would have the maximum impact as faras at what would have the maximum impact as far as forces responding to hate crime were concerned, and i am pleased to say that we did identify good practice, specifically in forces like gwent police, who had invested in the expertise of a small numberof invested in the expertise of a small number of officers and were supporting not only members of the public who were victims of hate crime, but also their colleagues. however, we did find that there was an inconsistent and patchy picture across the country, and that that first contact, which is absolutely essential, wasn't necessarily being tackled in the most effective way.

how would you tackle that first co nta ct? how would you tackle that first contact? because often it is said almost that police only have one chance to identify a hate crime. that's correct. it's the golden opportunity, because by its very nature, hate crime strikes to the heart of who you are, and that first contact that the victim has with police can determine not only the service that they receive, but also their view of the police service. and so what we found was really effective was officers and call handlers, who are sympathetic and prepared to ask those questions, you know, why do you think you were victimised, and who flagged cases as hate crime, and the reason why that is important, is that then victims will receive the service that they require. we are looking at hate crimes in general, what do you think

the rise in hate crimes is now a tribute of all to? hate crime is a really complex picture. we looked at all five strands of hate crime, so thatis all five strands of hate crime, so that is based on race, religion, disability, sexual orientation or transgender identity, each of those aspect i really, really complex —— each of those aspects are really, really complex. so we looked at what would be the overall response which would be the overall response which would have the maximum impact. thank you very much for talking to us this morning. wendy williams, who led that report. donald trump has now said that he holds vladimir putin personally responsible for russian interference in the 2016 us election. at a press conference on monday, president trump seemed to put russia's denials above the unanimous conclusion of us intelligence agencies. he has since said he misspoke, suggesting no other us president has ever been tougher on russia. the huge wildfire near

saddleworth moor is finally out, more than three weeks after the blaze started. greater manchester fire and rescue service says it has now withdrawn all firefighters from the blaze, which started on 24 june. the fire service says much—needed showers in the last few days have helped finally bring an end to the incident. the hosepipe ban imposed across northern ireland is set to be lifted at noon today, just as millions of people in england are facing the first of the summer. water companies in northern ireland said there had been a fantastic response from the public to its appeals to conserve water, adding that its water treatment works were now coping comfortably with demand. in north—west england, a temporary ban by united utilities will affect 7 million people from 5 august. u nless unless there is a lot of rain in the meantime, and matt will tell us

shortly that that seems unlikely. police officers and members of the public who showed outstanding bravery during the london bridge and borough market terror attacks last year have been recognised by the queen. eight people including ignacio echeverria and kirsty boden, who were killed in the london bridge attack, feature on this year's civilian galla ntry list. three police officers who confronted the attackers have also been awarded. one of them is pc wayne marques, who was blinded in one eye as terrorists swiped at him during the london bridge attack. bravery was the furthest thing from my mind. what was going through my mind was that people were hurt, dying, and what was going through my mind was just to try and help. coming up on the programme, matt will have the weather for you. mike is at the open in carnoustie for us this morning. you can give us your own weather forecast and an assessment of what

has been going on over the last few weeks, because carnoustie is a perfect example of how the weather has parched our gardens and the golf courses. good morning. you know what? since i came back from the gold coast, i don't know that the weather has changed. today once again, i have never been here before, like this. the sun is getting really hot already, and with my rather large ball in the rough, this is one you can get signed by all the players, the reason i am here is to show you how smooth it is, how the players might not mind being in the rough, they might use it tactically to get a line to the pin. there is hardly anything of it at all. if we come out to the fairway, this could cause some problems, especially for long hitters. if they hit too long they could be in all sorts of problems because the ground is so baked at carnoustie, very unusually for carnoustie, very unusually for carnoustie, that the ball will run and run and roll and roll. you get

the idea. anyway, over to my right, in the distance, play finally got under way at the 147 is open around 6:30 a.m.. ther first tee shot of the tournmanent was hit by the 1985 champion, sandy lyle, just after 6:30am this morning. alongside kaymer of germany and andy sullivan of england. sullivan got a birdie on the first hole, so he has a great start. i was talking about how unusual it is for this car—nasty course, as americans call it, because it is said to be one of the most challenging courses of all. i am joined by most challenging courses of all. i amjoined bya most challenging courses of all. i am joined by a player who has played here many times, in the 2015 british open, and you know what this course can be like, carnoustie. how will it be different this time? everyone is talking about how different it has been, the rough has burnt off, but

that might not be the case. these players will have to pull back a lot and if you are missing the fairway, instead of a driver you are using an iron, and! instead of a driver you are using an iron, and i don't think it will be quite as easy as people are predicting. and still the matter of the river which makes the course such fun. is that what makes the challenge it has become known for? that is difficult, and the pressure is on when you are under tension, it is on when you are under tension, it is an exciting finish at carnoustie. iam is an exciting finish at carnoustie. i am looking forward to how the course is playing. rory mcilroy, of course, last time he was making his first appearance, and how do you think you will do on his comeback?” think you will do on his comeback?” think he will take the same approach, taking the approach he did when he was younger, a bit of a carefree attitude which i think will really suit him. in my opinion he is the most talented golfer in the world, so as long as his head shows

up world, so as long as his head shows up he is hard to beat. he obviously has a great chance every time he tees up. and tiger woods is back, i followed him around yesterday practising. huge crowds everywhere he went. does he have a realistic chance? of course he has. he still has that huge laura. i watched him on the green, and everyone flocked around him as usual —— huge aura. he is making a bit of a comeback and this is the best form he has taken into an open for a long time. and he has been in so many play—offs, so much drama, winning harrington in 1999, when jean van much drama, winning harrington in 1999, whenjean van de velde com pletely 1999, whenjean van de velde completely exploded on the last hole. do you expect a play—off again, do you think?” hole. do you expect a play—off again, do you think? i kind of feel like an outsider will win. i don't think it will be one of the big boys. my money is on lee westwood. 0h boys. my money is on lee westwood. oh wow. people keep saying that, but

he has worked extremely hard on his fitness and it has made a massive difference to his golf. i think it isa difference to his golf. i think it is a great opportunity and this is his time. he can teach me how to get out of the rough in a minute. we are not on the real course, by the way, the 10th fairway is just over there. let me mark your card as to when you can let me mark your card as to when you ca n follow let me mark your card as to when you can follow the golfers you are tipping later on. a few selected tee times to look out for. tiger woods has his latest ever start at an open championship. full and continuous coverage over on bbc sport from 6:30am, bbc radio 5 live from midday. highlights on bbc two at 8:00pm tonight. it really is the most open of opens, because it is more like the savannah

and the greengrass of scotland.” because it is more like the savannah and the greengrass of scotland. i am waiting for a zebra to dash past behind you. herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically across the plains, of course. in strange, stripy golfing trousers. four years after his home was searched by police, in a raid broadcast by the bbc, sir cliff richard has won his privacy case against the corporation. the search was conducted in relation to an allegation of historical sexual abuse, an allegation sir cliff has always denied, and for which he was neither arrested nor charged. the judge said the bbc report had infringed sir cliff's rights to privacy in a serious and sensationalist way. sir cliff said the judgement was wonderful news, and has called for the bbc‘s senior managers to carry the can. but the case has sparked a wider debate over the right to anonymity when allegations have been made. this is what the bbc had to say. thejudge has also made clear that,

evenif thejudge has also made clear that, even if there had been no footage of the search and the story had less prominence, the very meaning of sir cliff would have been unlawful. this creates a significant shift against press freedom. so should accused people have the right to anonymity in these types of cases? let's discuss this with the lawyer and former conservative mp jerry hayes, and katie russell from the rape crisis charity. good morning to you both. your view on how this moves on in terms of the right to privacy for those who are accused? so our position has never changed, really. we believe that rape suspects, suspect in any sexual offence cases, should be treated the same as suspects in any kind of case, and there are of course similarly serious cases, arguably

stigmatising cases, where suspect son named as part of our open, transparent justice system, and son named as part of our open, transparentjustice system, and the reason we feel that rape and sexual offence at suspects shouldn't be treated differently, there shouldn't be an exception for them, is that that sends a message that those who have been accused of sexual offences are more likely to have been falsely accused than those who have been accused than those who have been accused or are suspected of other kinds of crimes. sadly that is a widely held myths already, and it is a very damaging myth because we know the vast majority of victims and survivors of sexual offences do not report to police, and among the reasons for that is their fear of not being believed. and what does this case now do in terms of influencing how are or potentially accused are treated in the media and by the police, in terms of being named? what has got to happen is there has got to be a level playing field. iam there has got to be a level playing field. i am firmly of the belief as

someone who defend these cases, that you are shackled to the reputation of smoke without fire for the rest of smoke without fire for the rest of your life, even if you are acquitted. therefore there is a simple solution. for all people accused of sexual offences, what should happen is, there is a presumption of anonymity unless the prosecutor can actually persuade a judge that it is in the interests of justice, as in the worboys case, people coming forward. and what we wa nt to people coming forward. and what we want to do, and i agree with katie on this, we want women to come forward , on this, we want women to come forward, they must be treated with respect, they must have the right to be believed, which has only changed recently. and i suppose the danger is, if you don't allow any coverage of the name of an individual under suspicion until and unless they are charged, you don't get those people coming forward who might have

additional information, who might build—upa additional information, who might build—up a bigger case, ultimately. the prosecutor can go to the judge unsay, this is in interest of the enquiry. we need people come forward. a sexual offence very often is to young people and drink. there is to young people and drink. there is no supporting evidence. what is the point of dragging the accused through the mud and destroying their life? what about someone, and katie, made you can enlighten me. i don't understand the process that has to go through. someone is accused of sexual assault, there is a suspicion from the police or from someone connected with the accuser saying that this person has done it before. you are now saying in orderfor that this person has done it before. you are now saying in order for the accused to be named, you have to go through another judicial process accused to be named, you have to go through anotherjudicial process in order to allow others who have been at used to speak up. and the issue with that is that currently is the

justice system process takes too long and that is not for anyone public benefit. either the alleged victim or the alleged perpetrator, currently it is not uncommon for it to take two years from the point that a victim report the crime where to end up in court. that is an incredibly long time for a victim or survivor to be reliving what may have been, what likely have been a most traumatic experience of their life. but it works both ways because thatis life. but it works both ways because that is still hanging over the head of the accused as well. therefore, there has to be equality of arms. there isn't at the moment. even angela rafferty qc, the pendulum has swung over the years against the accused. we believe in a fair system of justice. accused. we believe in a fair system ofjustice. what i am saying is by adding an extra layer of paperwork and bureaucracy into that process, we are only going to add additional pressure on an overstretched police force and criminal justice pressure on an overstretched police force and criminaljustice system and add to that length of time that

the judicial process takes, the criminal justice the judicial process takes, the criminaljustice process takes, which is not for anyone public benefit. theresa may was asked about this and she said, i was home secretary, i looked at this and i couldn't work out how we could make changes, because there are so many judgements, every case is different, how do you legislate on this? she has looked at it carefully enough. she is asked about charge from anna subaru. this is a simple thing we can do and it is not to be against the interests of women, not against the interests of women, not against the interests of anyone. it is just fair justice the interests of anyone. it is just fairjustice and process. simple as that. final word, katy? fairjustice and process. simple as that. finalword, katy? it is regressive. we had to remember that only 15% of it than survivors reported a big part of that is their fear of the justice process and not being believed. thank you, both. the bbc have said they are considering an appeal on this so we will find out how this proceeds. here's matt with a look at this morning's weather.

everyone seems to be out and about and we are stuck in a studio. at least you have a gorgeous picture behind you. yes, it is fine, almost uk wide to start your thursday morning. this is the view above the river thames. we have seen some high cloud drifting in from the south and the west. the sunshine may be hazy at times. it is this area of cloud and there have been changes late in the day. there will be out racks of rain. a fresh start in scotland and northern ireland. temperatures are on the up now. cloud will come and go through the day. maybe an isolated shower in the day. maybe an isolated shower in the north but most will stay dry yet again. a pleasantly warm day with temperatures in the low to mid— 20s. on the hot side towards the south—east corner. tonight, there

will be changes of more rain. scotland, northern ireland seeing the bulk of that. where you see the rain, around five to ten millimetres, less than half an inch at the most. that will spread into north—west england, northwest wales by the end of the night. a mild night compared to last night. muddy for some in the south and south—east. we will see brighter conditions to start friday with sunny spells around. a lot more clout elsewhere, occasional rain in scotla nd clout elsewhere, occasional rain in scotland and northern ireland. we cannot guarantee every garden will see showers that come and go in the afternoon. many east in areas will stay dry but there risk of a torrential thunderstorm in the south—east corner which could wring some of flash flooding. riches will be down compared to today. into the weekend, some fresh air across southern areas to begin. original high pressure to dry things out further north. most places will be dried other than a few showers here and there, chiefly across southern,

but not everyone will see them. sunny spells on saturday. it will be a pleasant day. nothing to put uk wide. low to mid— 20s further south. as far as sunday is concerned. a bit more clout in bed with saturday. a greater chance of a few showers especially to the western highlands. the further south you are and tebbutt is creeping up again. around 28 degrees. we have had the wildfires in the more finally extinguished, but it is other parts of northern europe experiencing some raging fires. this was in sweden during yesterday, and yesterday in northern norway, they saw temperatures within the arctic circle hitting 34 degrees. we are not alone in a heat at the moment and many northern areas into north week will see tebbutt is well above average this time of year.

interesting to see how norway is dealing with that. so unusual. the summer drags on. the dry summer has brought moorland fires and hosepipe bans, and now a new problem — toxic algae. it isa it is a bit dangerous as well. very dangerous. alison freeman is in ullswater in the lake district to explain. a view to be cautious about. good morning. good morning. we have got to be cautious. that view is spectacular, at if you look over here, we have warning signs about this blue green algae, which is toxic and can be quite dangerous for both people and their pets. i am on the banks of the river and we have from the environment agency. and

fiona, a local vet. we can't see it in the water. is it not here? it is naturally occurring and we'll be found ina naturally occurring and we'll be found in a lake all the time. when the weather conditions are right, it comes together and formed the blue morris gum and that produces toxins. the toxins were should be worried about? they could have bad effects on people and animals and you get to see things like watery eyes, skin rashes, upset stomach, that sort of thing. fiona, how dangerous is it the dogs? it can be extremely dangerous and it can be quick. it can cause, the very toxic to the liver, so within a short space of time, vomiting, diarrhoea, weakness and seizures and it could be fatal. why does it get to their more quickly than us? many dogs, as soon asa quickly than us? many dogs, as soon as a seawater, they are straight in there, swimming, drinking it, getting in their fur,

there, swimming, drinking it, getting in theirfur, licking themselves. they are much more likely to ingest the toxins. thank you very much. the message is quite simple. if you see those science, keep out of the water and keep you and your pets safe. we have the details on sports direct. partly profits, generally the underlying business made a profit but it made a loss on its business in devon and overall sales we re business in devon and overall sales were down. talked about the retail outlook on our high street. what is going on? we will have a chat. we can talk to liam rowley, head of strategic investments at sports direct. firstly, though sales in the uk. why

we re firstly, though sales in the uk. why were they down? they were only down a small portion. the high street is under a lot of pressure and we are fighting to reinvent ourselves. if you go into a new sports direct now, it is not the old pile it high, fairly cheap. we have everything from £1 socks to £3000 bags. retailers like yourselves look to increase sales year after year. your investors want you to increase your sales. we are not focused... we would love the high street to be thriving in booming, but it is not. we focus on getting our profits up and uk profits were up around 7%. we are focusing on the market. if sales are focusing on the market. if sales are down a small bit but profits are up, that is a decent result for us. if they profits are up in the uk, but one of your strategic investment has been taking a 30% stake in devon. we talk about devon and the

lot. you have lost £85 million on that investment. without a mistake? debenhams. in a world where online is really pressuring the high street, we think a lot of retailers need to work together to build a wall against the online players that are coming hard and fast. you haven't helped debenhams. we want to work together to offer. they don't have a sports offer, so if we can bring a sports offer to their online platform and into their stores, that could work really well and both could work really well and both could benefit. if we can work together and bring a better offer to consumers, that is something where we both benefit. it is a tough market and we think bricks and mortar retailers need to work together. are you not happy with how debenhams is being run at the moment? they are under a lot of

pressure, so we need to make things happen. that is what i keep trying, time is not on our side.” happen. that is what i keep trying, time is not on our side. i have one final question. when you look at, you say you are one of the most improved companies when it comes to working conditions. you come from a vaguely described as running victorian workcover. what is the biggest change have made? mistakes we re biggest change have made? mistakes were made and we tried to address as many as possible and we now have alex blackie on the board who really brings those issues to the top table every single board meeting, and so it isa every single board meeting, and so it is a continual work progress and it is a continual work progress and it will never stop. we have the keep needing to move forward and we try to address as many as we can, at it is at the forefront of most of our board meetings and so it is very important to us now. think you very much. the head of strategic investment at sports direct, which is clearly a tough job at the

moment. they have lost a lot of money in their debenhams stake. cautiously looking forward. yes, that would be a good way of putting it. we will have the headlines in a moment. good morning from bbc london news. police officers and members of the public who showed outstanding bravery during the london bridge and borough market terror attack have been honoured with civilian galla ntry awards. pc wayne marques is just one of those being recognised. he has been awarded the george medal for taking on all three attackers at once, with just his baton. he was slashed multiple times and stabbed in the head and the leg. reflecting on the whole situation, it isa reflecting on the whole situation, it is a silver lining to what was a tragic event and a silver lining i

hope that notjust me, but my collea g u es hope that notjust me, but my colleagues and my family and the people that support this can take some form of comfort and pride from. haringey council which scrapped a major housing scheme has been accused of throwing away £20 million of investment. the labour council changed leadership in may's local elections, decided to ditch a 50—50 public—private partnership to build 6,400 homes. the new administration says it is opposed to the transfer of public assets at the scale envisaged as part of the project. londoners are all being encouraged to walk or cycle for at least 20 minutes a day. research by the greater london authority has shown that if we all took part it would save the nhs £1.7 billion in treatment costs over the next 25 years. it's all part of the government's walking action plan to make london the most walkable city in the world. let's have a look at the travel situation now. on the tubes this morning, we have minor delays on the piccadilly line,

the overground and tfl rail. the a406 nth circular is looking slow westbound from the abbey road underpass onto the a40 at the hanger lane gyratory. let's have a check on the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. good morning. it's already a rather warm start to the day and temperatures will climb just that little bit further than they did yesterday when we got to 27 degrees celsius. of course, it will stay dry, there will be some good spells of sunshine, but the sunshine will be quite hazy at times because we're expecting quite a bit of high cloud to spread in from the south—west as well. already some cloud out there this morning that will clear away from eastern areas, so we should see some blue sky. the high cloud could be bright rather than sunny for much of the afternoon. top temperatures, though, rising to between 27 and 29 degrees celsius with just a light breeze. as we head through this evening and overnight, it will feel quite warm, muggy and uncomfortable for sleeping. staying dry of course. temperatures dropping to between 14 and 16 degrees celsius as we head into tomorrow morning.

tomorrow, it will feel increasingly humid and there could possibly be some thunderstorms spreading in from the south as we head through the afternoon and into the evening. but many of us will stay dry. but if you get a thunderstorm, they will be slow—moving. there could be a lot of rain falling within a short amount of time. for that reason, we have a met office yellow weather warning. maybe just a few light spots of rain on saturday, quite a bit more cloud. temperatures rising again on sunday and into next week. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. now, though, it's back to john and naga. good morning. welcome to breakfast with naga munchetty and jon kay. our headlines today: preparing for the possibility of no deal. theresa may and the eu warn both

sides need to get ready in case brexit negotiations fail. the police watchdog warns brexit could trigger a spike in hate crimes and says victims across england and wales are being let down by police. president trump backtracks again. he says he holds vladimir putin personally responsible for russian interference in the us elections two years ago. a record year for british book sales. we'll ask what keeps you turning the pages. sports direct has taken an £85 million loss on its stake in debenhams. i'll have more in a moment. welcome to carnoustie where the 147th open championship is under way. sandy lyle teed off at 6:30am and andy sullivan has two birdies already. another sunny day but rain

in the forecast tomorrow. i will have all the details on that on brea kfast. the european commission is warning countries across the eu to prepare for the possibility of a no—deal brexit. they say there could be serious consequences for governments, travellers and businesses if no agreement is reached. the warning comes as the new brexit secretary, dominic raab, travels to brussels to meet with the eu's chief negotiator for the first time. theresa may travels to northern ireland on brexit business. in a moment we'll talk to our ireland correspondent chris page in belfast but first our europe reporter gavin lee is in brussels. ido i do wonder, as dominic raab makes it way over there, what is he thinking? do i going gung ho? softly softly? he is the new guy in the job and he has got to make friends but still be tough. yes, he has had a little time to plan and from what we have heard of dominic raab on the

bbc, he sounds like a meticulous planner. he is aware of the broader picture. on the other side, his opposite number, michel barnier, the eu negotiator, we are told that the meeting is slightly delayed, five o'clock today, then dinner together, and there will be shadow—boxing between themselves about how the other one looks and seems. but more importantly they want to know the rhythm of this. there was umbrage privately from eu officials that they didn't feel that david davis, dominic raab's predecessor, was there for long enough. it is worth pointing out this proprietor this document with 27 countries being told to up your game when it comes told to up your game when it comes to being prepared for the potential shock of the fallout of no agreement on brexit, and start to work on areas like customs and flights documents, in case there are problems with customer details on landing, things like that. a huge

document to be released at about midday today. thank you. chris page is in belfast. the prime minister is going to ireland later today. i am sure she wouldn't admit this but she is probably looking forward to stepping away from parliament for a while. she could be. the issues she will be looking at the northern ireland will be very tricky. probably the issue more than any other that has emerged as the major sticking point in the brexit negotiations, which is the future of the uk's only land frontier with the european union, the border between the irish republic and northern ireland. theresa may will meet people on the brexit front line, business people who trade and work and travel across the border, most of them every single day. if there was no deal, and therefore border controls returned, that would be pretty

disastrous for them. mrs may is going to say that you believe that the government's latest proposals will solve the border issue. we'll find a way to make the board as open and invisible as it is at the moment. given the fact that this is a very political issue in northern ireland as well as an important economic and business issue, i am not sure everybody will buy her vision. chris, thank you. chris page. the police watchdog is warning that there could be a rise in hate crimes after brexit and that forces in england and wales already have significant problems in the way they handle the offences. it looked at how forces responded to allegations and found that often police took up to five days before they visited hate crime victims and in some cases didn't respond at all. here's our home affairs correspondent, danny shaw. hate crime comes in different forms. anti—semitic graffiti, like this. an arson attack on a garden shed owned by polish people. and white powder sent to a mosque. police guidance says hate crime should be treated as a priority. officers are meant to attend victims within an hour of an allegation being reported.

but the inspectorate of constabulary found the police response is patchy, and in many cases not good enough. the report found too many hate crimes were wrongly recorded. it took police an average of five days to visit victims in 40% of cases it looked at. and there were no visits to hate crime victims in over a third of the 180 cases examined in detail. it's important for victims of hate crime to be asked why it is that they think they've been victimised, so that it's identified from the outset. because if it is identified, it can then and it should then be flagged, and that in turn determines what service they receive. two years ago, there was a spike in hate crimes reported to police after the eu referendum. the inspectorate warns forces to prepare for a similar increase when britain formally leave the eu next march. the college of policing says, in light of the report, it is reviewing the training and guidance for officers on hate crime.

danny shaw, bbc news. donald trump has now said that he holds vladimir putin personally responsible for russian interference in the 2016 us election. at a press conference on monday president trump seemed to put russia's denials above the conclusions of us intelligence agencies. he's since said he mis—spoke, suggesting no other us president has ever been tougher on russia. our washington correspondent chris buckler reports. when president trump shared a stage with vladimir putin in helsinki, to some within his republican party it appeared all too cosy, particularly as he seemed to side with the russian president over america's own intelligence agencies. now, after days of criticism, in an interview with america's cbs news, he has taken a deliberately tougher line. you say you agree with us intelligence that russia meddled in the election in 2016. yeah, and i've said that before, jeff. i have said that numerous times

before, and i would say that that is true, yeah. but you haven't condemned putin specifically. do you hold him personally responsible? well, iwould, because he's in charge of the country, just like i consider myself to be responsible for things that happen in this country. so certainly as the leader of a country, you would have to hold him responsible, yes. after he returned to washington, the president claimed he misspoke when he said at that now notorious news conference in helsinki that he didn't see why russia would have been involved in electoral interference. on twitter, donald trump said some people simply hated the fact that he got along well with president putin, something which he called trump derangement syndrome. and, in reaching out to russia, the president is continuing to defend his own unique style of diplomacy. chris buckler, bbc news, washington.

the turkish government has ended the nationwide state of emergency that was imposed two years ago following a failed coup attempt, according to state media. since 2016, tens of thousands of people were arrested or dismissed from theirjobs. the decision not to extend it for an eighth time comes weeks after president erdogan was re—elected. he'd made ending the state of emergency an election pledge. the huge wildfire near saddleworth moor is finally out, more than three weeks after the blaze started. greater manchester fire and rescue service says it has now withdrawn all firefighters from the blaze, which started on 24th june. the fire service say much—needed showers in the last few days have helped finally bring an end to the incident. the hosepipe ban imposed across northern ireland is set to be lifted at noon today, just as millions of people in england are facing the first one of the summer. water companies in northern ireland said there had been a fantastic response from the public to its appeals to conserve water,

adding that its water treatment works were now coping comfortably with demand. in north west england a temporary ban by united utilities will affect 7 million people from 5th august. police officers and members of the public who showed outstanding bravery during the london bridge and borough market terror attacks last year have been recognised by the queen. eight people, including ignacio echeverria and kirsty boden, who were killed in the london bridge attack, feature on this year's civilian galla ntry list. three police officers who confronted the attackers have also been awarded. one of them is pc wayne marques, who was blinded in one eye as terrorists swiped at him during the london bridge attack. bravery was the furthest thing from my mind. what was going through my mind was that people were hurt, dying, and what was going through my mind was just to try and help. it's been a record year for british

book sales according to new figures. sales of printed books have risen for the third year in a row, while sales of digital e—books fell. the publishing industry as a whole is now worth £5.7 billion. lots of people getting in touch this morning saying they are surprised by that because they thought technology was beating paper, but apparently not. if you're setting off to work shortly and dreading the prospect of trafficjams or train delays then we have found an uplifiting alternative for you. that's how you should do it! hover above the traffic, above the crowds, with the long and be at work in no time. and you can buy thisjetsuit but it isn't cheap. £340,000. forget that then! but you get four micro jet engines and a maximum flight time of three or four minutes. we just hope your work is close by! and you have to come home at the end of

the day as well! but you would have so much fun. imagine getting on the bus to come home again looking like that! nice landing. that is in london yesterday. i do want that. 12 minutes past eight and we will get the weather shortly. a hate crime is one which is motivated by hostility or prejudice towards any aspect of a person's identity. a report today warns that victims of these offences are being let down by police forces in england and wales. sophie lancaster was 20 years old when she was murdered in a lancashire park because she was dressed as a goth. since then, sophie's mum sylvia has campaigned to raise awareness of hate crime and has set up a foundation in her daughter's name. we can speak to her now. we thank you so much forjoining us on sharing this story. i know it is difficult to talk about. but you

wa nt to difficult to talk about. but you want to do so. tell us about sophie and why she was attacked and why it was a hate crime. sophie and rob had been out on a friday evening. at a friend's house. on the way home they stopped at a local garage to buy some cigarettes. they met two young boys. they went with these boys and a group of young females, 14 or 15 yea rs a group of young females, 14 or 15 years old, into a local skate park. they had been in their two minutes, and they attacked and robbed. they had him on the floor and theyjumped and stamped on his head on the skate ramp. sophie went to help. she was kneeling down, cradling his head, and she was then attacked by two of them. unfortunately sophie never regained consciousness and she died after 13 days in hospital. we are talking today about hate crimes and the police have been told they need to do more to take hate crimes

seriously. what was it about what happened to sophie that made it a hate crime for you? it was always about the way that she looked, the way that she dressed, who she was, really, to people. before the attack, i had been out on the streets with sophie and rob and you can hear people's comments about them. look at the state of them. what do they look like? if people are calling at them when i am with them, what do they have to put up with when they are on the streets on their own? it is offensive to have to listen to that. so you had to deal not only with this awful thing happening to your daughter, but knowing it was notjust her that was attacked, it was her whole identity that had been attacked. that is what it was about for you. absolutely. absolutely. i think young people who

belong to goth culture, which ever subculture they belong to, they really have a right to show people who they are, to walk down the street without fear. for goodness' sake, we live in 2018, not back in the middle ages. the police forces across england and wales today are being told they need to do more to ta ke being told they need to do more to take hate crimes more seriously. it seems there is a lot of variety between the way different forces work. some are being praised and being told they do a good job and others are being told to pull up their socks and do much better. what would your message be to all police forces, just as the mother of a victim? i would say to all police forces, you have got to make hate crime priority. you really need to be encouraging people to come and report. we have got 101 and true vision, where you can report without showing who you are, showing your

identity, whatever. but we do need people to come forward. that actually comes first. the police have got to make sure that people within communities are really co mforta ble within communities are really comfortable talking to the police. very often they are not. that is a big issue that police have got to deal with. we go around the country and we work with different police forces, and we are working with lancashire police very closely at the moment, and gmp, leicester police, and we have done lots of different training with police, and there are ways to learn things. and to develop as individuals. fingers crossed. it does need training putting into every police service. that is where the issue lies really. what you are saying is that there is good practice out there but some police forces are doing the right thing from what you see? oh, absolutely. greater manchester police, for instance. we have had a

lot of input with greater manchester police, doing training etc. they we re police, doing training etc. they were the first police force to come forward and start monitoring alternative hate crime. at the moment we're working very closely with manchester police, training their cadets. and working closely with them. there is a lancaster hate crime trophy that will be presented every year to somebody within the force who has gone above their duties as far as hate crime is concerned. there are lots of different police forces. gwent police force have got ambassadors. yorkshire police are working closely with their communities. bradford is the same. it is ongoing. and it will ta ke the same. it is ongoing. and it will take time. but i think that police forces are doing the best they can at the moment. once they are trained up at the moment. once they are trained up and whatever, it will be an even

better service for hate crime victims. that is what is needed. sylvia, thank you so much for your time. you are doing an immense amount of work by the sound of it in sophie's name. quite a legacy that you are continuing. thank you for your time. it is 18 minutes past eight. we willjust show you a wonderful picture. it is what is happening right now at earls court in the lake district this morning. the sun is shining and we will talk to our correspondent dan is there because there are problems with toxic algae in the water. —— at ullswater. forget about that because it is just so beautiful! and your gardens, perhaps they are parched compared to a couple of months ago. matt will tell as if that will continue. good morning. it certainly looked lovely in ullswater and across the irish sea into the east of northern ireland, fine start. just like it is for many of you. another dry day coming across most

parts of the country. this guys are quite cloudy, mainly this stuff coming up from the south, turning hazy. —— skies are quite cloudy. and some rain will move in late on across the hebrides. almost it stays dry with the isolated chance of a shower in north east england and scotland. hazy sunshine to take us into the afternoon for the vast majority and warm as well with temperatures into the 20s. it could get hot in the south—east corner yet again up to 28. it is the first day of the open at carnoustie. quite a bit of cloud but some breaks in the cloud as well. the breeze picking up throughout the day and that will be a key feature. on friday the greater chance of rain. that rain comes in tonight across scotland and northern ireland. maybe five or ten millimetres, quarter of an inch here and there, but not everybody will see it. putting into north west wales by the end of the night. further north and east it stays

com pletely further north and east it stays completely dry temperatures in double figures across the uk. mild in scotland and northern ireland compared to this morning. rain comes and goes across scotland, northern ireland and northern wales on friday. much of england and wales stays dry. but there could be some severe thunderstorms drifting in from the near continent with a risk of flash flooding. most people will stay dry and even the showers in northern and western england and wales will be hit and miss. a fresher feel in northern and western areas with atlantic at tipping in this high pressure, as the cold front this high pressure, as the cold fro nt m oves this high pressure, as the cold front moves further south. on saturday, it will be close enough to southern counties to bring a refreshing shower to a couple of gardens but most places will stay dry and it is the first day of the school holidays across many parts of england and wales. very few showers in the forecast. pleasantly warm in some length the sunny spells and temperatures wisely low to mid 20s.

on sunday more cloud returns to northern ireland and northern england bringing some showers and lengthier bursts of rain into the highlands. the rest of england and wales and northern ireland will stay dry through the day. temperatures in the south starting to lift once again and they will lift further as we go into next week. more heat building across the south. 31 degrees possible. further north a bit more pleasant with sunny spells. thank you. it just looks bit more pleasant with sunny spells. thank you. itjust looks wonderful. we will see you soon. 8:21am. later this year dozens of women from around the world will compete to be crowned miss universe 2018. representing great britain will be dee—ann kentish rogers from birmingham. she's a former commonwealth games athlete, a newly—qualified barrister and the first black woman to be named miss universe great britain. dee—ann, welcome to breakfast. congratulations, first of all. that

is quite a crowd. i assume this isn't your normal day where!m isn't your normal day where!m isn't but it has become part of my normal day wear. it is comfortable but it just reminds normal day wear. it is comfortable but itjust reminds me to keep my back straight. you don't want that tipping. you are trained barrister and a former athlete. why did you go into a beauty pageant? beauty pa g ea nts into a beauty pageant? beauty pageants have been phenomenalfor me in terms of self—development and confidence. it forces you in a very short period of time to focus on your own growth, who you are, what your own growth, who you are, what your goals are, what message you wa nt to your goals are, what message you want to send to young girls. and it also forces you to be very accountable. you have got to make sure that every mistake you make, you correct. and those invested in your development, you want to make sure you are not wasting their time. to play devils advocate, you can do that in life. why do you need to be paraded and judged as a woman on your looks and whatever else? paraded and judged as a woman on your looks and whatever else ?” wouldn't describe it as paraded or

judged. there is a sisterhood in pageantry. you can find it in the commonwealth games, in sports, but in terms of a focus on females, pageantry has a hold on that particular area. it is quite archaic. when people say that, they mean that it hasn't changed, but i don't think that is true for pageantry. when you look at the miss universe stage 2017 you will see people from different backgrounds and different body image types. that is important. what was it like when it was

announced ? what was it like when it was announced? i said, can you check the paper again. modesty aside, why were you surprised? you were on stage with a bevy of beautiful and intelligent women. there were people on the stage of me who were jealous, dancers, solicitors. you have to find a way to say to yourself, despite the fact everyone here is amazing, so am i. that is very important. what do you make of the reaction? you are the first black woman to win miss universe gb, i

newly trained barrister, former athlete, what do you make of the attention you are getting now? most of the attention is brilliant. people have reached out to me and they said me winning feels like a personal win for them. that makes me feel very humble and very honoured. there is on social media, both the positive and the negative. i have received a lot of negative backlash in the past few days. i know the internet, i was on social media before i was in pageantry so i knew what it was capable of. it is not something i paid too much attention to. well, what the idiots who use it are capable of. you have the big, final competition, how do you use this position you have gained beyond that? the miss universe great britain pageant is attached to a

charity which offer support for victims of female genitalia mutilation, victims of acid attacks in india and it helps them get back into life. you will use it for the positive, will you carry on with the law? i really want to. i told them, things have changed a bit, so i may have to delay my entering the law by a year. iam imagining i am imagining you walking into the courtroom with a barrister‘s wig and the diamonds! mix it with the crown! thank you so much for talking to us. time to get the travel and weather where you are. hello there, good morning.

we've got a fair amount of cloud out there at the moment but that will break up sufficiently for many of us to give us some bright, sunny spells from time to time. it will feel a bit warmer across england and wales, but further north and west we have this weather front which will gradually move its way in across the north west of scotland and the west of northern ireland. that will eventually introduce some rain. in the meantime, there will be some sunshine for scotland, for northern ireland and indeed wales. you can't see on the map here but there is quite a bit of medium and high level cloud, which mayjust mask the sun from time to time and make things a little bit bright rather than sunny. but the heat will build up, you can see the oranges there and the reds across england and wales. a little bit fresher further north and west and eventually that rain, as i mentioned, pushing its way into the far north and north—west of scotland. temperatures here about 19 to 21, up to about 29 celsius in the south—east.

through this evening and tonight, that rain will continue to spread its way further south and east and into the far north—west of england and across wales. quite a muggy night down towards the south east, it will be fairly uncomfortable for sleeping here. during friday, this band of showery rain will spread south and east. it's not going to be wet everywhere but there may be a little bit of rain across northern england, wales, the south—west and later on heavier showers in the south—east of england. but staying quite cloudy and cooler to the north and the west. down towards the south—east it remains pretty warm and pretty muggy. into the weekend, it will be largely dry. can't rule out some showers here and there. there will be some bright spells, again some sunshine coming through from time to time, i think particularly as we go into sunday and temperatures remaining fairly high across the south, up into the high 20s. across northern areas, temperatures in the low 20s. but it from me, have a good day. goodbye. this is business live from bbc news with ben bland and sally bundock. preparing for the worst...
