good morning. welcome to breakfast, with dan walker and louise minchin. our headlines today: shocking new figures on child abuse. at least 80,000 people in the uk are said to pose a threat to children online. borisjohnson savages the prime minister's brexit strategy, saying the uk will get diddly squat from the negotiations. a huge fire has ripped through the iconic littlewoods building in liverpool. good morning from this factory. last year saw the biggest investment in new trains in a decade so i have come to this factory to find out what they are doing to try and get more business. in sport: watford win again, as sunday night's alright for elton. and, while it stays similar through the week from any of you, more autumnal feel in the forecasts, including some rain today. i will have all the details here on

brea kfast. it is monday 3 september. our top story: at least 80,000 people in the uk are estimated to pose a sexual threat to children online. the figures were released by the home secretary, sajid javid, who said he was shocked at the scale of offending. today he will outline what he calls his personal mission to tackle child abuse. 0ur correspondent duncan kennedy reports. child abuse images — the 21st—century curse on the internet. the home office says today that pictures are getting more graphic, and technology is making it easier to fund and facilitate this vile trade. the new figures from the national crime agency today show the scale of what is going on. it says there are now up to 80,000 people in the uk who present some kind of sexual threat to children online. and that in the past five years, there has been a 700% increase in the number of child abuse images referred to the nca. the home secretary, sajid javid,

will today give what is being called a flagship speech on the issue. having visited the nca to see its work, mrjavid is expected to speak of the full horror of the scale and nature of child sexual abuse. really now we need to see a co—ordinated response, led by government, but with law enforcement and crucially also industry, because what we've seen for the last few years is that the big social networks in particular have failed to take the steps that they need to to keep children safe on their platforms. that's why we now need government to step in and deliver statutory regulation of these sites. the nca says it has just arrested more than 130 people in its latest operation against online child abuse. but it says this is just a fraction of the wider problem. duncan kennedy, bbc news.

borisjohnson has attacked the prime minister's brexit strategy. he described it as a fix, and claims that the uk will get what he calls two thirds of diddly squat from the negotiations. he also accuses some members of the government of using the irish border issue to stop a proper brexit. 0ur political correspondent ben wright has this report. you know borisjohnson is no fan of the prime minister's rex tan, despite being the most prominent campaigner for leaving the eu. despite being the most prominent campaignerfor leaving the eu. mr johnson thinks the government's proposalfor keeping the johnson thinks the government's proposal for keeping the uk and the eu closely aligned for trade in goods as a sell—out. injuly, he walked out of the cabinet in anger, and has now used his newspaper column to put the boot in again. mr johnson claims the chequers plan means going into battle with the white flag fluttering. he said it would lead only to victory for the eu, while leaving the uk lying flat on the canvas. dozens of tory mps will believe a mac agree with him. but while brexiteers promised to put

forward a alternative plan shortly, others are urging the prime minister to advocate a much closer relationship with the eu, demonstrating how fractured the party is on the future of brexit and the bind theresa may is in. compounding problems, the eu's chief negotiator, michel barnier, said he was strongly opposed to parts of the plan. even if theresa may can get a deal done with brussels this autumn, it has to be approved by mps, and at the moment it looks hard to see how that will happen. firefighters have spent the night tackling a huge blaze at the littlewoods pools building, one of liverpool's most famous landmarks. the building has been empty for 15 years but was due to be turned into film studios. 0ur correspondent keith doyle reports. the fire broke out in the landmark art deco building shortly before 8pm last night. 50 firefighters fought

the blaze, which is believed to have started on the roof. flames could be seen coming from a large part of one side of the building. it is believed the roof and floors have been destroyed, although the fire brigade said there are no concerns at this stage over the integrity of the structure. most of the major parts of the fire is out, thankfully, and the structural safety has been assessed by the surveyors. there is assessed by the surveyors. there is a lot of internal damage but we are confident that the exterior of the building is intact. this was the home of the littlewoods pools. it has been closed and left abandoned for the past 15 years, but plans are in place to turn it into a major film and tv production base. the site of the building earmarked for thatis site of the building earmarked for that is not thought to have been seriously affected by the fire, which was brought under control in the early hours of the building. the building's owners said to see it in

fla mes building's owners said to see it in flames was devastating, but they are determined to regenerate and restore. we can show you live pictures there this morning. as you can see they are still working on the building, and you can see flames right at the top of it. what we will be there throughout the morning —— but we will be there throughout the morning. a really sad scene in that beautiful building. a huge fire has broken out at the national museum of brazil in rio de janeiro. firefighters are tackling the blaze at the building, which contains more than 20 million items in its collection. there have so far been no reports of any injuries. the museum, which once served as the residence for the portuguese royal family, celebrated its 200—year anniversary earlier this year. around 3,000 lifesaving transplants weren't carried out in the last year because families refused to donate their relative's organs. the nhs figures show that 80% of people support organ donation, but only a third have told their family they want to donate. a new opt—out system which already operates in wales is due to be

introduced in england by 2020, but doctors warn thousands of lives could be lost in the meantime. the number of migrants arriving in europe has fallen, but the number dying during the journey has risen dramatically, according to the un refugee agency. it says 1,600 people have died so far this year, and the fatality rate has gone up from one in 42 people to one in 18. it wants european countries to make it easier for migrants to join family members already here, and an increase in resettlement places. a golfer with a prosthetic leg is suing a local authority for refusing to allow him to play on a public course using a buggy. paul houghton, whose right leg was amputated after he contracted a deadly tissue—eating bacteria, claims brentwood borough council discriminated against him. the council denies this and is defending the claim. our legal correspondent clive coleman reports. paul houghton's lucky to be alive.

in 2000, while working as a roofer, he knelt in contaminated water and contracted the deadly bug which can eat muscle and body tissue at a rate of two centimetres an hour. well, you got over. paul's right leg was amputated above the knee and he received the last rites in hospital. my received the last rites in hospital. my swing isn't very orthodox. golf has become an important part of paul's life and a buddy enables him to get around the stand and 5—mile course. he has represented england 13 times and played in europe. in august 2016 paul had arranged to play around and this golf course in essex, owned by brentwood council, but on his way to the tee he claims he was told he would not be allowed on the course without a letter from

his doctor justifying on the course without a letter from his doctorjustifying the medical need for a buggy. i couldn't believe it, i really couldn't believe it, to be told i couldn't play because i was disabled. what sort of message do you think that sort of response sends out the disabled golfers, disabled people? it sends the message out that we are not welcome, that we are not part of society and that we are not part of society and that we are not part of society and that we are not included, and that we can'tjoin in a sport that is accessible to everybody because we need to use other equipment to play the game. in refusing to allow him to use his buggy, paul claims that brentwood borough council were discriminating against him because of his inability to walk around a golf course. in effect, he says that the council were applying a policy that indirectly discriminates against all disabled people who need against all disabled people who need a buggy to play golf. brentwood borough council is defending the legal action, and declined the bbc‘s invitation to comment on the case. you are watching breakfast. good

morning, everybody. sally is here with us this morning as well. morning, everybody. sally is here with us this morning as wellm morning, everybody. sally is here with us this morning as well. it is monday! have you both had a good weekend? i have had a very relaxing weekend, actually, it has been marvellous. did you watch some of this? i did watch some of that, and joe root‘s postmatch interview was just great. there was a thrilling end to the fourth test in southampton, as england wrapped up the series against india. sam curran took the all—important final wicket, as india's resistence finally gave way. they had been closing the gap on england during the fourth day's play, butjoe root‘s side came through to wrap up the series win with a test to spare. watford kept up their 100% premier league record as they beat spurs 2—1. four wins from four means they are still standing at the top of the league, much to the delight of their honourary life—president, sir eltonjohn. arsenal and man united also won.

as did celtic. the first old firm derby of the season went their way thanks to this well—worked move, that was finished off by 0livier ntcham. 1—0 it finished, a first defeat as rangers manager for steven gerrard. and lewis hamilton extended his formula one championship lead to 30 points after winning the italian grand prix. he produced one of the best drives of his career, overtaking both ferraris after starting from third. it says something when you talk about an f1 driver winning a race by overtaking, and that is what he did, the old—fashioned overtaking, and that is what he did, the old —fashioned way. overtaking, and that is what he did, the old-fashioned way. old school. here is matt with a look at this morning's weather. it turned out warm for some people. it turned out warm for some people. it certainly did, we hit 26 degrees in north yorkshire yesterday, and this is the scene on north yorkshire beach in scarborough. the feel of

autumn in the airfor many of you and they will be some rain around at times as well. a wet start to the new week for some, courtesy of this weather front which will linger anywhere from eastern scotland down towards the south—west of england through much of the day. a bit misty across some parts of eastern england, cool for western scotland and northern ireland. in central and eastern scotland, especially west of the pennines, some heavy burst of rain and south—west england it could bea rain and south—west england it could be a fairly cloudy morning. 0ccasional rain. many across western scotland, things will gradually improve. a lot more sunshine developing the day. substantially cooler than it was through the weekend, temperatures in the mid teens. quite a bit of cloud through the central belt of scotland, occasional rain. a bit damp across the south—east as well. northern ireland, a fine afternoon with some sunshine, temperatures 15 or 16. north—east england turning cloudy with some showers, the same across the midlands, south—east wales towards the south—west. the further

west you are, things will get a bit brighter, and warmest with the sunshine will be part of east anglia, lincolnshire, south—east and the channel islands. could hit 2a through the afternoon. in through the night, a weatherfront through the afternoon. in through the night, a weather front will not move eastwards in any great hurry. lots of cloud on it, some splashes of rain here and there. not thoroughly wet, many will have a dry night. on the cool side the parts of scotla nd night. on the cool side the parts of scotland and northern ireland, temperatures down to two degrees or three degrees in sheltered lens. staying mild where you have the cloud in place. the greatest chance ofa cloud in place. the greatest chance of a showers will be across parts of central england, eventually into parts of eastern england as well. cloudier than we have seen through the day. sunshine at times through the day. sunshine at times through the west and north of the uk. 0ne would tee showers for western scotland. temperatures continuing to dropa scotland. temperatures continuing to drop a little bit day by day across the south and east, holding in the mid—to—high teens across northern and western areas. through the middle part of the week, a lot of dry weather around. varying amounts of cloud, some sunshine, but the breeze picking up, coming from a

northerly direction. the temperatures will take a tumble. by thursday the greater chance of rain, and the weather charts for the end of the week showing something distinctly autumnal. low pressure in charge, weather front circulating around it and pinpointing the exact location of those weather front at this stage will be on the tricky side. the general theme after the warmth of the weekend this week turns cooler, and a greater chance of rain towards the end of the week. looks a bit disappointing for the end of the week. thanks, matt. you are watching breakfast from bbc news. the headlines: it is estimated there are 80,000 people in the uk who pose a sexual threat to children online. a huge fire has destroyed a large part of one of liverpool's most famous landmarks, the littlewoods pools building. they're still working on that this morning. let's take a look at some of the stories on today's front pages. the daily mail asks: "is any child safe online?"

it is leading on the same story as asked this morning. this is the story we've been bringing you this morning, about 80,000 people posing a threat to children online. borisjohnson is on the cover of the telegraph describing theresa may's brexit plans as a fix which will only lead to victory for the eu. a picture of a jubilant sam curran on the front of the times. a the 20—year—old took the final wicket in england's test victory over india yesterday. and the daily star's looking ahead to the upcoming series of i'm a celebrity. new host holly willoughby will be sharing a posh penthouse with dec as she steps in to replace ant mcpartlin. and the story which is the most read on the bbc website this morning is the fire at the famous littlewoods building in liverpool. we'll be live from the scene with the latest at 6:30am. let's take a closer look inside the papers. do you want to go first, sally?

shall i? well, obviously not! i'm interested in your opinion on this one. lots of the papers are talking about the big battle of sunday night tv. 9pm on bbc one, bodyguard. 9pm on itv, vanity fair. what are you going to watch? bodyguard in our family. what about you? going to watch? bodyguard in our family. what about you ?|j going to watch? bodyguard in our family. what about you? i go to bed early. i love vanity fair, good book... yeah yeah, i go to bed early. i have the bodyguard saved, haven't seen it yet, so haven't seen it. have you not watched episode one? so don't talk about it. are you going to wait until it is all over and then you are going to binge it? yeah. how are you going to stay away from it? what are we going to talk about? you will have to think of something else. that went well! shall we talk about something else? let's talk about the cricket because

we know what happened in the cricket. a great column from michael vaughan, sometimes he does these great honest columns. he said jonny ba i rstow, great honest columns. he said jonny bairstow, tremendous cricketer who will matches for england only if he's in the right frame of mind. he said this week has been a lesson to all of the players, if you turn up with his attitude, test cricket will expose you. he's frustrated and angry, you can see it in his body language. if i can sense it, the tea m language. if i can sense it, the team will sense it too. yesterday, a brilliant win for england but a telling column from michael vaughan about the players' state of mind. great competition for places... some of them not happy. going back to the bodyguard thing, no knowledge is better because there's a lot in the papers this morning and i literally have no idea what they're talking about. watching none is better than watching some. that's probably true. i promise to tell you nothing, 0k?

0k. what do you want to talk about? the fact we're spending more time shopping for old school stuff like fishing rods, board games, jigsaws, colouring books, plastic model kits. every three minutes in the uk someone looks online for a nokia 33 ten. classic. i spent ages trying to find a typewriter. i did eventually find a typewriter. i did eventually find one —— 3310. i found it in a charity shop. and you actually use it? i don't use it very often. we wanted it. it isn't ornamental. quite old—fashioned wanted it. it isn't ornamental. quite old —fashioned technology. wanted it. it isn't ornamental. quite old—fashioned technology. i kept all of my nokias. have you? still got a walkman? a good one, yes. and boomboxes, bring them back! they were popular this summer. let's talk about midlife crises. signing up

talk about midlife crises. signing up for tough madhur two, and going vegan, is the new midlife crisis. this is a study by bupa health, they say turning 40—4050, close to the heart, pushes many into crisis... i don't know why i'm laughing, prompting us to make doctors appointments, changes in diet and other things. —— turning 40 or 50. if you fail a roadside eye test. they're going to try this in three areas and they are with mid and is, thames valley and hampshire. if you do that you lose your license on the spot —— west midlands. if you can't read a license plate from 20 metres you will have your license cancelled on the spot and you can't carry on your journey. they're on the spot and you can't carry on yourjourney. they're trying it in three areas and hopefully it will be rolled out across the country. very interesting development. see you later, sally. thanks very much.

petrol and diesel cars will be banned from nine roads in east london from today in a bid to tackle toxic air. drivers will receive a £130 penalty if they use anything other than electric or hybrid models in areas of hackney and islington during peak hours on weekdays. 0ur reporterjohn maguirejoins us now. john how significant will this ban be to motorists in london? iimagine i imagine this will be quite a change for people? it isa change for people? it is a quiet area i would say, louise, for traffic, having been here this week but we're just a block away from a very main roads that runs right the way through this pa rt that runs right the way through this part of these london, so for those moments, drivetime back in the afternoon and rush—hour in the morning, very busy. this is a brand—new sign, showing you the timing to say vehicles should abandon the zone between 7am and 10am in the morning, 4pm and 10pm in the afternoon and there is a large country school behind me, so that school will be pleased to see this brought in. but will it work? we

will find out more in a second. we came to film here last week to get an idea of the issues. london's dirty air is blamed for around 9500 premature deaths every year. air quality‘s monitored co nsta ntly year. air quality‘s monitored constantly across the city, and scientists have a good idea of what causes pollution, when it's at its worst and who is most at risk. just a street away from the diesel and petrol ban zone is a main roads where doctor rick thomas from the university of birmingham is using a hand—held monitor to track nitrogen dioxide levels. they are high, but well within the legal limit. there are all sorts of pollutants that we can measure from cars, of course. this is just that we can measure from cars, of course. this isjust one that we can measure from cars, of course. this is just one of them, henao two, and we're getting about 119 micrograms per litre cubed. this is pretty normal to what we would expect next to a road, next to all these vehicles coming past. the

legal limit is 219 micrograms cubed over the course of one hour, and already been breached in various places in london throughout the year. walking away from the main roads, this is the area where the rush—hour ban will take effect. it's already a lot quieter. are we seeing much of a difference? we're seeing much of a difference? we're seeing a little difference. it's about 78 micrograms per metre cubed and there were reading a little over 100. it's only about 40 metres away so we obviously expect on the wind things to drift in and appear here. around the world, targets are being set for electric or vehicles with extremely low emissions. there's no doubt pollution levels are often dangerously high. it's now up to local authorities, governments, industry and consumers to decide how best to clean up the air that we breathe. so, two london boroughs in the area we are standing decided to take a

lead in this. we are with councillor claudia web and another councillor from islington and from hackney. and we arejoined by from islington and from hackney. and we are joined by doctor robin russelljones, an adviser to mps on air pollution. why have you chosen this area? this is an important area right outside a local secondary school, really important to us, at thejunction school, really important to us, at the junction with old street. this area is really important. we have so many vulnerable young people, children attending school. 0utside of this school we found air pollution is quite high, one of the highest in london for a secondary state school. it's important we do something about the air quality simply because it's affecting too many lives and right across london, just like in islington and hackney, air pollution is damaging to many lives, too many people are dying and it is causing severe long—term health conditions. that's a given, people accept all of that. the

scheme itself, will it work? it's a busier odd just a block over there, vehicles could drive around quite easily? it's a very busy area and it's also a very busy area with pedestrians and cyclists. it's a very busy commuting area as well. you'll see that the nature of the streets in this area, the roads are very narrow with small pavements. and, as claudio said, one of the most polluted areas in london, and that's why we were very grateful to the mayor of london who gave us funding to start this scheme. —— claudia said. this scheme, as you described, six hours a day, 7am until 10am described, six hours a day, 7am until10am in described, six hours a day, 7am until 10am in the morning and 4pm until 10am in the morning and 4pm until 7pm in the evening, peak times, to reduce the exposure of people in the area to air pollution. doctor russelljones, you advise mps on air pollution, i hesitate to use the phrase we're all in this

together but the councils are taking a lead. what's happening in westminster, is the government taking enough action decisively? sadly not, they produced a paper la st sadly not, they produced a paper last year about reducing henao two levels but they devolved all the responsibility to the councils and then they hampered what the councils are able to do. they said they could use the charging zone but only as a la st use the charging zone but only as a last resort. credit to the mayor for doing so much to tackle the problem in london, but this isjust a small area. we need an ultralow emission zone for the whole of central london because it breaches the who limits for particulates, double the accepted level, and the whole of central london exceeds the n02 levels set by the eu. so it's a serious problem and it's getting worse because we had a recent study showing air pollution affects intelligence, there was a study last week from china, and these are worrying developments. thank you very much indeed to all of you.

we're going to be here through the morning talking to various different people, getting a view on how badly needed this scheme is and whether it will be effective. it will run for the next nine months, then we will have to come back and get the data together to see how much difference it makes. you've just been on camera, john. see how much difference it makes. you'vejust been on camera, john. we will explain later! thank you very much! that was the google the google maps machine, wasn't it? yeah. may be bbc breakfast will be on street map. if you go around that street wherejohn is this morning you can seejohn maguire wherejohn is this morning you can see john maguire speaking wherejohn is this morning you can seejohn maguire speaking with his camera. a strange world we live in! you're watching breakfast. plenty more to come on the programme this morning, including some good news on british manufacturing from steph. good morning. good morning to you, good morning, everyone. i'm at the hitachi railfactory here, i'm surrounded by lots of parts of trains. the blue ones you might recognise, they ask at rail. the

green one behind me, great western. it won't be long until you see these on the lines —— they asked scott rail. they will get these cars brought overfrom rail. they will get these cars brought over from japan, that's where they are made —— they are scott rail. what these guys do is put everything inside of them. for example, cabling. they have about 400,000 miles of cables in every single train. let's look underneath. there's around 1000 people working in this factory and also what is key to them is trying to get as many parts as they can from the local area. 70% of what goes inside these trains are components that help them do thejob trains are components that help them do the job and they will come from a40 mile radius of the area, so the supply chain is crucial to them. let me go around here, there's bits and bobs everywhere here —— a40 mile radius. we will show you as much as we can but what you can't see, it feels quiet, there's people working

inside the trains. i will show you inside the trains. i will show you inside one of them in a bit but first, the news, travel and weather where you are this morning. good morning from bbc london news, i'm sara 0rchard. it's claimed thousands of council homes across the capital will be lost as old estates are redeveloped. figures obtained by freedom of information requests to all local authorities in london show 120 council estates are being updated, but campaigners fear social housing stock won't be replaced. we've got a net loss of over 4000 homes in schemes that have been completed over the last 15 years. and when you look forwards, schemes that have planning permission now, it gets even worse. there's 7600 homes to be lost over the next ten yea rs, homes to be lost over the next ten years, so the whole process is accelerating. police are appealing for witnesses after a teenager was shot on a busy road in south london.

paramedics were called to york road in wandsworth yesterday morning. a 16—year—old boy was taken to hospital. he's now in a stable condition. no arrests have been made. the metropolitan police has sold more than a billion pounds worth of property over the past six years as it tries to cope with cuts. among the buildings let go include new scotland yard which went for £370 million. last year, the mayor closed 38 stations to save money and warned the met is running out of options for resources. but the home office insists it has increased funding for london's police. as you've been hearing, petrol and diesel cars will be banned from nine roads in east london from today in a bid to tackle toxic air. 0nly electric or hybrid models will be allowed in parts of hackney and islington during rush hour on weekdays. drivers in more polluting cars can be fined £130. let's have a look at the travel situation now. 0n the tubes this morning, we have minor delays on the picadilly line.

actually, a good service on all lines. 0n the trains, there is disruption including cancellations on southern trains between redhill and tonbridge and reigate and victoria because of a shortage of crews. in leyton, lea bridge road is closed both ways at peterborough road because of an accident. let's have a check on the weather now with sara thornton. good morning to you. good morning to you. yesterday good morning to you. yesterday we good morning to you. yesterday we saw highs in the london area of 25 degrees. not impossible to think we'll see something like that again today. another fabulous day in prospect, dry, lots of sunshine and asi prospect, dry, lots of sunshine and as i say, feeling warm. not much to point at on the map across the whole of the london area. behind me, though, there's a strike of cloud that could be a game changer for tomorrow and the middle part of the week but in the meantime, today highs of 23, or maybe 25 celsius in one or two spots. through the night tonight we keep the clear skies across london and most of the suburbs. you can see that cloud is just upping to put in a little bit from the west by tomorrow morning.

double figures in our towns, a little bit cooler under clear skies in the countryside and then tomorrow, that cloud slowly slipping its way in from the west. not as sunny as today, not as warm either. 21, maybe 22 degrees. that cloud continues to push in for wednesday as well. it will bring us a splash of rain, a little bit coolerfor the middle part of the 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 dan and louise. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast, with dan walker and louise minchin. it is 6:30am. we will bring you all the latest news and sport in a moment. but also on breakfast this morning: as borisjohnson compares the uk to a beaten wrestler in brexit negotiations, we will be speaking to his sister rachel about why she is pushing for a people's vote on the final deal. he made his fame and fortune on the apprentice, but countdown host nick hewer will be here to tell us why he is no fan of reality tv. and, if you thought queen victoria

spent her whole life in mourning, you would be wrong. the historian lucy worsley will be joining us with news of how the young queen loved to party. good morning. here is a summary of today's main stories from bbc news: the home secretary, sajid javid, says he is shocked at the scale of child abuse and has vowed to make it his personal mission to tackle it. it comes as new figures show that the number of referrals of child abuse images to the national crime agency surged by 700% in the last five years. it is thought that up to 80,000 people in the uk pose a threat to children online. borisjohnson has savaged the prime minister's brexit strategy and claimed that the uk will get diddly squat from the negotiations. writing in the daily telegraph as mps prepare to return to westminster, he compares the talks to a fixed wrestling bout, and insists if britain continues on the present course it will throw away all the advantages of leaving the eu. a huge blaze has destroyed part

of the littlewoods pools building, one of liverpool's most famous landmarks. the art deco structure has been empty for around 15 years, but in the last few weeks, plans had been announced for a major new complex at the site, including film and tv studios. dave guestjoins us now from liverpool. dave, how bad is the damage there this morning? good morning, yes, it is badly damaged. 0f good morning, yes, it is badly damaged. of course, last night the fire broke out just damaged. of course, last night the fire broke outjust before 8pm in this, one of two wings of this art deco building, it was opened to how is the littlewoods pools organisation but it had been empty since 2003. various plans to redevelop it had come and gone over the years. most recently a plan seemed to be progressing to turn it into a film and tv production studio. twickenham signed a deal

with capital & centric to create a studio hub. the fire has destroyed pa rt studio hub. the fire has destroyed part of the building. fire crews are on the scene, but they are still damping down here. this is one of the main commuter routes into liverpool. it was closed off overnight but it has now reopened to traffic so at least the rush—hour shouldn't be too disrupted. they will be carrying out further examinations of the building once the fire is completely out to see what the damage has been. 0vernight they were saying that they felt the integrity of the building was very much intact so hopefully that plan to turn it into a studio complex will still go ahead. but still very much alive scene here this morning. a huge fire has broken out at the national museum of brazil in rio de janeiro. firefighters are tackling the blaze at the building, which contains more than 20 million items in its collection. there have so far been no reports of any injuries. the museum, which once served as the residence for the portuguese royal family, celebrated

its 200—year anniversary earlier this year. three police forces will test the eyesight of all drivers stopped. any driver who fails to read a number plate from 20 metres will have their licences revoked. in 2012, a study claimed poor vision was causing almost 3,000 casualties a year. currently, the only mandatory examination of vision takes place during the practical test. the scheme is operating in thames valley, hampshire and west midlands. sally is here to talk about good news. yes, good news in the cricket. joe root has won a few things in his time. and he looks about 12. that is

the worrying thing, is he even allowed out on his own? "my best victory" — that is howjoe root described england's win against india in the fourth test at southampton. they won by 60 runs to wrap up the series with a test to spare, as james burford reports. as the dust settled on a frantic morning session, england put their heads together. the target — seven wickets to win the series. but, formidable as ever, virat kohli set about frustrating england's bowlers. he may well earn man of the series — another box—office 50 from india's captain. a box set of brilliant shots, running circles around the england attack. but, in spinner moeen ali, england have a man full of his own tricks. perhaps, where others failed, he would prevail. ali to kohli, coolly caught. india's talisman gone. cue the batting collapse. six wickets for just 43 runs, everything falling into england hands. until the most fitting of finales — sam curran, just 20 years old.

that's got to feel good. taking an unassailable 3—1 lead, with a match still to play, england have beaten the number one side in the world. james burford, bbc news. credit to india, they've played some really fine cricket throughout, not just this game, but the whole series. you look across it, it must have been great viewing for people at home to see, the way that especially the first two games went. sorry, the first game and this one, how tight they've been and how it swung both ways. i think it's a really good sign for test cricket. three teams still have their 100% record after the weekend's football in the premier league — liverpool, chelsea, and watford. the first time they have won their first four games in the top flight, and their first win over spurs in more than 30 years. it finished 2—1, craig cathcart with the winner — much to the delight of the ‘rocket man' himself, watford's honorary life president, eltonjohn. so many puns, so little time. watford still standing at the top of the league. you know things aren't going well

when there is a plane and a banner. this is how manchester united's day started at burnley. but a 2—0 win for united eased the pressure onjose mourinho and executive vice chairman ed woodward. but it wasn't all plain sailing. marcus rashford was sent off in the second half for leaning into burnley defender phil bardsley with his head. arsenal had to fight off a cardiff comeback to seal a first away win of the season. cardiff twice came from behind before alexandre lacazette smashed in this second—half winner for arsenal, who have really struggled away from home in 2018. it finished 3—2. police scotland and celtic are reviewing procedures after five

people were injured trying to get into sunday's old firm game at celtic park. 0n the field, 0liver ntcham scored the only goal of the game to seal a valuable win for celtic, as they close the gap on league leaders hearts. it was the first defeat for rangers manager steven gerrard since he took over the club this summer. lewis hamilton extended his championship lead, overtaking both ferraris in their home grand prix to win in italy. he started from third, but moved up to second on the opening lap, as title rival sebastian vettel spun off, before passing kimi raikkonen late in the race to claim his sixth win of the season, moving 30 points clear in the title race. defending champion rafael nadal is through to the quarter—finals of the us open. the world number one won the first two sets comfortably against nikoloz basilashvili, before losing the third on a tiebreak. the spaniard dispatched the georgian 6—4 in the fourth set to advance to the last eight. and serena williams is through to the quarter—finals after being taken the distance

by estonia's kaia kanepi. williams won the first set injust 18 minutes, but was pegged back, and had to come through in three to book a last—eight match against karolina pliskova. now, the 11th tier of english football isn't the place you'd expect to see one of the premier league's greatest players. but former manchester united legend paul scholes laced up his boots after a call from the manager of royton town. they were short of players, so the 43—year—old stepped in. look at that. well, i have to tell you the bad news. they lost 1—0. and a p pa re ntly you the bad news. they lost 1—0. and apparently he does play with them every now and then. and he trains with them. so still keeping fit. and

they got quite a crowd. word went around and lots of people turned up. as we've been hearing this morning, the home secretary, sajid javid, will vow to make it his personal mission to tackle child abuse, after revealing at least 80,000 people in the uk pose a sexual threat to children online. figures from the national crime agency also show a 700 percent rise in the number of images being referred to them in the past five years. it wants internet giants to do more to tackle the issue. let's get more now from the agency's robjones. good morning to you. thank you very much forjoining us. let's talk about these figures first of all. 80,000 people, and when you are talking about a sexual threat to children online, whether the figures come from, and how serious is this? good morning to you. if i talk to you a little bit about that scale and what it means for policing in the nca, in one week of activity we

executed 225 search warrants and arrested 131 offenders in relation to that threat. that took place this summer. that is just a snapshot in terms of what is taking place week week. we are now on average... we are arresting during a month approximately 400 offenders with national policing colleagues. so thatis national policing colleagues. so that is the manifestation of the threat that we see through referrals to us made by industry, people accessing indecent images of children. the most worrying thing is that many of these images are old images that are recirculating, and offenders are accessing the images and committing the offences and then becoming more bold and progressing through the more acute and severe behaviour. so it is in all our interests for industry to work closely with us, to ensure that those images are not available on the open web and are not available on any of their platforms. right,

0k. on any of their platforms. right, ok. so talk about that particular week as well. i know you drill down into the figures. 19 of those people arrested held editions of trust. yes, that is correct, so there is no such thing as a stereotypical paedophile. the people that pose a threat to children online now are from a range of demographics, and we have seen people arrested who have a background in policing, in teaching, ina background in policing, in teaching, in a whole range of different professions, which causes us grave concern. and this is a reflection of the growth of the threat and the reason why today we are moving forward to take more action and sustain momentum against people who we identify that are posing a threat to children. i want to talk about industry, because you mentioned you wa nt industry, because you mentioned you want them to do more. what sort of thing could make a difference? so industry has the best access to

their own technology and the best knowledge of their networks. 50% of the images that were referred to us during a week earlier this month we re during a week earlier this month were known to us. now, if an image is known, that means that technology companies are in a very good position to block access to that image. so we want proactive and aggressive blocking to make sure that people can't access these images. we also want those images taken down as quickly as possible, and to not have a position where success is measured i asked reacting to the threat, but success is redefined as the prevention of that offending by people not being able to access these images. can we talk a little bit about sentencing, as well? there are lots of things going on, people making these images, people distributing these images, people distributing these images, people looking at these images. what about sentencing across—the—boa rd ? is it tough enough? so sentencing across the board is starting to reflect the severity of the threat. at the higher end of the threat,

with sadistic offenders we see on the dark web, we saw one offender being sentenced for over 170 offenders to over 30 —— offences for over 30 years. that shows how seriously the threat is taken by the judiciary, but because of the volume of what we see as preventable offending, with images being shared between offenders, there is a challenge to the system to respond to this and make sure all the offenders we are tackling receive the right sentences and the right treatment. so you would like sentences to be tougher? it is our job as law enforcement professionals to get the evidence and put these people before the courts. we do see ever—increasing sentences and i am pleased to see that. thank you for joining us this morning on brea kfast. bye for now. thank you to you for being with us as well. here's matt with a look at this morning's weather. a beautiful picture behind you. good morning. good morning. lovely sunrise on the

way for those in lincolnshire, after what was a fine weekend in many parts, still some warmth around, as there will be for one or two today but a changing kind of weak. already today, some will be wet to start, all to do with a weather front shuddering eastern scotland, north—west wales and the south—west, slowly moving east, along this zone, plenty of cloud, some rain and the occasional heavy birds, especially in south wales. to the east of that, lovely bright, sunnis but with some mist and fog patches and a lovely start to the far west —— sunny start. a little on the cool side. we continue that 3—way split through the day. the weather front moving slowly further east, so fine weather in 0rkney and shetland and across northern and western scotland. the small chance of an isolated shower in the hebrides, most will be bright. cloud in over at times this afternoon in central scotland for a few showers, but in the south—east we will see occasional rain. a fine day in northern ireland. the

north—west improving a bit, as will western parts of wales, but north—east england cloud in over this afternoon, as will the midlands, and staying cloudy in the south—west with some showers coming and going through the day, with the odd heavy burst. in the south—east and the channel islands, still some warmth, 24 possible with the sunshine. clear skies to come here through the night, as we will see in western parts. chilly in the west, temperatures in western parts of northern ireland down to two or three. double figures and pat during into tomorrow morning. parts of south—east scotland and into northern england, the midlands and some in the south—west. some sunshine to be had across east anglia and the south—east but a bit more cloud developing here. while we will see that cloudy zone with a few splashes of rain, many will get through tomorrow bright. temperatures generally in the mid—to—high teens, potentially up to 22 in the south—east corner —— bright. for the middle part of the

week, —— dry. a few showers here and there. a breeze picking up from a northerly direction with temperatures starting to drop and for the back half of the week, and into the start of the weekend, with low pressure in charge, feeling a lot more autumnal. cooler conditions, rain at times around but still a at least a bit of sunshine, but a week of change after the warm weekend —— still at least. i was waiting for the next picture to pop up. i was very thankful. i didn't thank you earlier matthew, but excellent work as ever! letting that where the report sink in. last year, £767 million was spent on new trains for the uk's railways, the biggest investment in a decade. steph's at a factory near darlington this morning. i've annoyed some people on social media by saying you're in darlington, but you are near

darlington, but you are near darlington, newton aycliffe. all pa rt darlington, newton aycliffe. all part of county durham but not far from darlo. i'm at the hitachi rail factory, obviously making trains, huge business for them here. they have about 1000 people working here and you can see behind me... ifeel like i'm on a lego set, everything is so little, in the corner there is some of the trains that will be made for the east coastline, then next to them you've got great western and scott rail so lots of different trains being made here. big business for them. mark, head trains being made here. big business forthem. mark, head of manufacturing for the company, can tell us more. good morning. what do you do hear? we get a painted body shell, like this one, from our pa re nt shell, like this one, from our parent company injapan and we will spend 27 days finishing that. about 30 days from now it will be on the test track. it will go out for our customer in scotland. lots of people are inside. john is up there, he is

one of the team on shift this morning programme yet altogether inside. in terms of what you're doing inside,? —— in terms of what you're doing inside —— on chip this morning putting. we do a lot of work on data connections —— on shift. 0ur state—of—the—art trains are generally computer—controlled, all fly by by wire, there's hundreds of kilometres of cabling that has to be wired through the carbon through the length of the train. how long does it take to make a train? this vehicle will take 27 days to get to the end of the system. this will be three cars, so there's another to that has to go with it, it will be formed into a train and then it is tested for 30 days to make sure it is fit and safe or the network. thanks very much. we will take you inside ina thanks very much. we will take you inside in a moment to see the dublin is. let's have a chat tojoanna.

university of durham, you're working a lot with local businesses, this is a lot with local businesses, this is a key manufacturer, what is it like for the rest of the region at the minute? it's looking really positive, if you talk to the institute of directors, the advanced manufacturing for, they'll tell you the story of not only the big manufacturers like this doing extraordinarily well, but also those smaller destructive if you like supply chain members that feed big manufacturing companies like this with the innovation and creativity that we are so good at in the north—east, and they're doing really well as well. talking to phoenix steel and cell pack solutions and the guys expanding their factories, taking on more people and getting ready to support the big manufacturers like this so critical to our region is the temperature of what's happening at the moment. what is the national picture, you work for the eft and constantly talking to businesses all over the country, what are they saying? some of that

is reflected at the national level. we have seen orders growth sustained, looks like the second half of the year will be reasonably good for uk industry. there's real pockets of strength. the export picture i think has been particularly an important prop for manufacturing growth over the last couple of years, it's really boosting industries like an electronics, basic metals and that's reflected in our survey today. do you think given all the uncertainty at the moment our manufacturers are going to continue to grow?|j at the moment our manufacturers are going to continue to grow? i think that's a huge question. i don't think anyone can be 100% confident that that can continue indefinitely given some of the uncertainties and tensions manufacturers are going to be dealing with, not least brexit negotiations obviously hitting a crescendo at the moment but we've also got this backdrop of trade tensions primarily between the us and china, but i don't think we can rule out an escalation there. that will weigh on company's confidence

to push ahead with big strategic investment plans in the uk. thanks for your time, we will speak to you later as well. about 700 workers are about to start the 7am shift shortly, there will be a throng of people i'm told coming through. we will go inside to meet some of them and see the trains. more from me later. we will look at them later. thanks very much, steph. the grand arrival! if you haven't heard the song already, be warned, this will probably get stuck in your head for the rest of the day. if you haven't seen it already, apologies. the music video for baby shark by pink fong has had more than 1.5 billion views online, and this week entered the official uk chart. although the original was first released around ten years ago, a youtube cover has captured the imagination of kids across the globe and has even sparked a new social media challenge in which people recreate

the dance themselves. we've been to find out why it's so popular. it is fun. even i can dance and do it. and my sister, it really annoys her. my mum started singing it in the kitchen and then i started singing it.

i think it's probably because it's really easy to learn and do the action anywhere. it definitely is the end! thanks to wirral hospice, leicestershire fire and rescue service and south yorkshire police for sending in their baby shark challenge videos. we'll tell you how you can send yours in in a moment. i feel we are ifeel we are going i feel we are going to be inundated with baby shark videos. nothing necessarily wrong with that. i like the grandma shark one with no teeth. ididn't the grandma shark one with no teeth. i didn't know any of this until this morning. you've got to get involved. do you think? earworms, how to get rid of them, there's some interesting theories. darin young of the, they say listen to the song, i'm not sure i recommend, then

listen to god save the queen is one way of getting rid of it —— durham university. it's about distraction. with baby shark, it is the baby shark that gets in your head all day. listening to the whole song is a way of getting rid of the little bit. 0r god save the queen. a way of getting rid of the little bit. or god save the queen. or do something different. you just have to distract yourself. stay with us but do make a tea to distract yourself from the noise. still to come, we are here until 9:15a.m., go still to come, we are here until 9:15 a.m., go to the website to get involved and to look at more. we are also on social media this morning. involved and to look at more. we are also on social media this morninglj would appreciate your advice to get rid the earworms this morning. rodrigo duterte rodrigo duterte... —— rodrigo duterte rodrigo duterte. .. —— rodrigo duterte rodrigo duterte... rodrigo duterte rodrigo duterte. .. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london news, i'm sara 0rchard. it's claimed thousands of council homes across the capital will be

lost as old estates are redeveloped. figures obtained by freedom of information requests to all local authorities in london show 120 council estates are being updated, but campaigners fear social housing stock won't be replaced. we've got a net loss of over 4,000 homes in schemes that have been completed over the last 15 years. and when you look forwards, schemes that have planning permission now, it gets even worse. there's 7,600 homes to be lost over the next ten years, so the whole process is accelerating. police are appealing for witnesses after a teenager was shot on a busy road in south london. paramedics were called to york road in wandsworth yesterday morning. a 16—year—old boy was taken to hospital. he's now in a stable condition. no arrests have been made. the metropolitan police has sold more than £1 billion worth of property over the past six years as it tries to cope with cuts. among the buildings let go include new scotland yard which went for £370 million. last year, the mayor closed 38

stations to save money and warned the met is running out of options for resources. but the home office insists it has increased funding for london's police. as you've been hearing, petrol and diesel cars will be banned from nine roads in east london from today in a bid to tackle toxic air. 0nly electric or hybrid models will be allowed in parts of hackney and islington during rush hour on weekdays. drivers in more polluting cars can be fined £130. let's have a look at the travel situation now. 0n the tubes this morning we have a good service. 0n the trains, there is disruption including cancellations on southern trains between redhill and tonbridge and reigate and victoria because of a shortage of crews. in leyton, lea bridge road is closed both ways at peterborough road because of an accident. in because of an accident. south london, on the a2 ti been in south london, on the a2 there's been a crash. the traffic lights aren't working as well.

let's have a check on the weather now with sara thornton. good morning to you. yesterday we saw highs in the london area of 25 degrees. not impossible to think we'll see something like that again today. another fabulous day in prospect, dry, lots of sunshine and as i say, feeling warm. not much to point at on the map across the whole of the london area. behind me, though, there's a stripe of cloud that could be a game—changer for tomorrow, and the middle part of the week but in the meantime, today highs of 23, or maybe 25 celsius in one or two spots. through the night tonight, we keep the clear skies across london and most of the suburbs. you can see that cloud is just starting to push in a little bit from the west by tomorrow morning. double figures in our towns. a little bit cooler under clear skies in the countryside and then tomorrow, that cloud slowly slipping its way in from the west. not as sunny as today, not as warm either. 21, maybe 22 degrees. that cloud continues to push in for wednesday as well. it will bring us a splash of rain, a little bit coolerfor the middle part of the 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 dan and louise. good morning. welcome to breakfast, with dan walker and louise minchin. 0ur headlines today: shocking new figures on child abuse. at least 80,000 people in the uk are said to pose a threat to children online. borisjohnson savages the prime minister's brexit strategy, saying the uk will get diddly squat from the negotiations. a huge fire has ripped through the iconic littlewoods building in liverpool. good morning. lots of people arriving for their shift here this morning. last year saw the biggest investment in new trains in a decade. i will be taking you inside

some of them to find out what is going on. in sport: sunday night's alright for watford, as elton watches on. and after a weekend of summer warmth for many of you, things look a bit more autumnal as we go through this week, including some rain at times. for some of you today looks distinctly damp, as well. i will have more later. it is monday 3 september. our top story: the home secretary, sajid javid, says he is shocked at the scale of child abuse, and has vowed to make it his personal mission to tackle it. it comes as new figures show that the number of referrals of child abuse images to the national crime agency surged by 700% in the last five years. 0ur correspondent duncan kennedy reports. child abuse images — the 21st—century curse on the internet. the home office says today that pictures are getting more graphic, and technology is making it easier to fund and facilitate this vile trade. the new figures from the national crime agency today show

the scale of what is going on. it says there are now up to 80,000 people in the uk who present some kind of sexual threat to children online, and that in the past five years, there has been a 700% increase in the number of child abuse images referred to the nca. the home secretary, sajid javid, will today give what is being called a flagship speech on the issue. having visited the nca to see its work, mrjavid is expected to speak of the full horror of the scale and evolving nature of child sexual abuse. really now we need to see a co—ordinated response, led by government, but with law enforcement and crucially also industry. because what we've seen for the last few years is that the big social networks in particular have failed to take the steps that they need to to keep children safe on their platforms. that's why we now need government to step in and deliver statutory regulation of these sites. the nca says it has just arrested

more than 130 people in its latest operation against online child abuse. but it says this is just a fraction of the wider problem. duncan kennedy, bbc news. borisjohnson has attacked the prime minister's brexit strategy. he described it as a fix and claims that the uk will get what he calls two thirds of diddly squat from the negotiations. he also accuses some members of the government of using the irish border issue to stop a proper brexit. 0ur political correspondent susana mendonca is in westminster. this is a pretty strong worded atttack on theresa may's brexit strategy. we are used to hearing borisjohnson talk about brexit, but what do you make of what he said today?” talk about brexit, but what do you make of what he said today? i think it will be something of a rallying cry, really, for people who don't like the chequers plan, who don't like the chequers plan, who don't like the chequers plan, who don't like the idea of a common rule book on goods and who are looking for an alternative. he referred to diddly

squat, that is what he thinks we will get from negotiations, but also talks about how the uk will be left lying flat on the canvas. he talks about how it is going into battle with the white flag fluttering. he says that the scandal of brexit is not that the government has failed, in his view, but actually that had never tried to begin with. so really scathing criticism of mrs may. of course, this is the beginning of what will be a very difficult coming weeks and months, when mrs may is trying to get her plan off the ground. and having this from boris johnson at the very start of that is certainly not what she needs. we will be talking about that little bit later. later in the programme we will be speaking to the journalist racheljohnson, who is a remainer, and the former chair of vote leave. a huge blaze has destroyed part of the littlewoods pools building, one of liverpool's most famous landmarks. the art deco structure has been empty for around 15 years, but in the last few weeks, plans had been announced for a major new complex at the site,

including film and tv studios. dave guestjoins us now from liverpool. dave, how bad is the damage there this morning? will everything have to be on hold once they assess what is happening in the building behind you? yes, good morning. you can probably see behind me some of the scale of the firefighting operation that has been going on overnight. at the height of this lays, around 50 to 60 firefighters tackling it, flames shooting into the night sky. this morning the flames are out but the building is still smouldering. it seems that the first floor, certainly, and the roof of this wing, there are two wings to this art deco building, this wing badly damaged by the fire, this building one of the most iconic and recognisable buildings in liverpool. it opened in 1938 as the headquarters of the littlewoods

pools organisation. as you say, it had been empty since 2003. a number of plans for its future had come and gone, but most recently there was that proposal to turn it into a film and television production centre. a deal done between twickenham studios and the development company would have made this into a major development hub. i was talking to a firefighter earlier who said although the timbers inside the building had destroyed, the structure itself is very sound, it isa structure itself is very sound, it is a well built building, so the integrity seems to be there. 0bviously integrity seems to be there. obviously the people who own this place will come and assess it to see whether we go from here, but they still hope to go ahead with a plan to redevelop the building. it would be ashamed to see it go, it is a major structure on the liverpool skyline. familiar so many people. these twin buildings have dominated the skyline since 1938. the fire last night causing some problems but they are hoping that the project will be able to go ahead. thank you

very much for the latest this morning. a huge fire has broken out at the national museum of brazil in rio de janeiro. firefighters are tackling the blaze at the building, which contains more than 20 million items in its collection. there have so far been no reports of any injuries. the museum, which once served as the residence for the portuguese royal family, celebrated its 200—year anniversary earlier this year. around 3,000 lifesaving transplants weren't carried out in the last year because families refused to donate their relative's organs. the nhs figures show that 80% of people support organ donation, but only a third have told their family they want to donate. a new opt—out system, which already operates in wales, is due to be introduced in england by 2020, but doctors warn thousands of lives could be lost in the meantime. the number of migrants arriving in europe has fallen, but the number dying during the journey has risen dramatically, according to the un refugee agency. it says 1,600 people have died so far this year, and the fatality rate has gone up from one in 42 people to one in 18. it wants european countries to make it easier for migrants to join

family members already here, and an increase in resettlement places. motorists stopped by police in some areas will have their licences revoked immediately if they fail a roadside eye test. the crackdown aims to catch some of the thousands of drivers who get behind the wheel each day despite having defective sight. in 2012, a study claimed poor vision was causing almost 3,000 casualties a year. the forces operating the new test are thames valley, hampshire and west midlands. an 87—year—old motorist was recently stopped by police for driving the wrong way down the road, and then failed an eye test. surrey police tweeted this picture of him taking the examination. he could only read a number plate from 7.3 metres away, when the minimum distance is 20 metres. the force said he voluntarily surrendered his driving licence.

let us know what you think about that story. it is in the front pages ofa that story. it is in the front pages of a couple of the papers this morning as well. it could well be rolled out across the uk. parents of children with cancer are often under incredible strain, and now new research suggests they are having to cope with the added burden of spiralling travel costs. a study by the charity clic sargent found young patients are travelling twice as far and spending twice as much on journeys for treatment than adults. here with us now are millie stubbs, who was diagnosed on her 13th birthday before getting the all—clear after treatment, and her mum, fleur. we are also joined by the charity's clare laxton. thank you very much for coming in and discussing this with us. let's come to your case, to start with. how old were you when you were first diagnosed? was first diagnosed my

13th birthday, which was five 0ctober, about two years ago. 13th birthday, which was five october, about two years ago. and how far october, about two years ago. and howfardid october, about two years ago. and how far did you then have to travel for treatment? where did you have to get to? manchester, so we travelled to manchester hospital a few times, and then when we found out it was cancer we had to go to the christie hospital which treats cancer patients, which is quite away from where we live, which is burnley, so it is quite a distance back and forth. i will come back to you in a minute, because that is the point that being made, that the reason they are having to travel is because for children's cancer they are having to travel is because for child ren's cancer particularly there are specialist places to go to. exactly, so unlike adult cancer there are specialist centres across there are specialist centres across the uk, not very many of them, which specialise in children and young people's cancer, so that is why those travel distances are so huge

and white families like fleur and millie are spending, we calculated, on average £180 a month on top of everything else just to travel for treatment, and why we are calling for action from the on this today. it is tough when you're13—year—old daughter is diagnosed with cancer, and it is that added burden which i suppose... you have an emotional burden already, and it is financial as well. absolutely, at the time the diagnosis is made, all you think about is we have to get this fixed, we need her well. so you don't think about the actual travelling and the transport. it is only when you see gaps in yourspend transport. it is only when you see gaps in your spend that you realise how much it actually does cost. and the amount it adds up to, as well, over the period, whether it is going for the treatment, or the operations, and beyond that you have appointments as well that you need to go backwards and forwards to. you

mentioned the operations. tell us how important it was to have your mum. ithink how important it was to have your mum. i think you stayed somewhere near. i did, it was the ronald mcdonald house, so i stayed when she was going through that. so how important was it that your mum was close to you when you are going through this kind of treatment? you obviously need someone with you, and it helps to have someone when you are going through it, just to be there. i suppose there is appreciation that not everyone can have this sort of acute care on their doorstep. are you asking for more help with the travel cost, and an appreciation of how it can make such a big difference to families? yes, exactly. we really support the specialist treatment that is there, and we believe there should be specialist treatment. but families are footing the bill currently to get to that treatment, and we don't think that is ok. we actually found, if all of the children and young people that we support, which is just over 7000, travelled to one treatment appointment on the same

day they would be travelling 450,000 miles around the uk, at a cost of nearly £70,000. and help out there isn't enough. clic sargent helps with financial grounds, and —— grants, to help people stay close by. but we want the government to help as well. some people do get help, under a particular income, isn't it? yes, so there is a current travel cost scheme, but when we asked the families that we support about it, only 6% had gotten support from that scheme and the vast majority had never heard of it. so we see that actually that is not fit for purpose. for those families that are travelling vast differences, one 800 mile round trip for treatment, for long periods of time, it is not fit for purpose. which is why we are calling for extra help from government. the department of health say they have helped nearly 350

applicants on that low income scheme you are talking about. the good news from your family's point of view, yes, it was emotional —— emotionally taxing, but you got the all clear. what was it like when you got that news? well, i had my full thyroid removed, so it was amazing to hear, but at least i know i can move on from that now. i do have to take medication to live, but it is better knowing you are all clear. and how much difference would it have made for you as a family to get financial support, especially for the travel costs ? support, especially for the travel costs? well, we had to make a lot of adjustments as it was. but if you knew you didn't have that extra cost is going on, it would keep the anxiety down. you wouldn't have to be thinking about what you can afford. in a time like that you want to be treating your kids, giving them a little bit more, if you could. but you are actually having to hang back a bit and not, maybe, have the trips or give them the

gifts you would like to.” have the trips or give them the gifts you would like to. i am glad you are better. thank you very much, both of you. here is matt with a look at this morning's weather. good morning. all calm the moment on the river thames behind me. sunshine overhead and for some, a lovely sunny start to the week but a bit of a 3—way split to the weather to get us through the day. dry and sunny in the east and east anglia, the channel islands, western scotland and northern ireland but in between isa and northern ireland but in between is a weather front which is bringing a distinct lee wet start to monday in parts of eastern scotland, north—west england, wales and the south—west, increasingly so this morning. 0utbreaks south—west, increasingly so this morning. outbreaks of rain coming and going and some heavy bursts. that weather front is only slowly working easter through the days so many parts staying dry and sunny, fine in northern ireland, especially

in northern scotland —— working eased. temperatures in the mid—20s. mid—teens for many. —— working east. central scotland could have showers in the afternoon. south—west scotla nd in the afternoon. south—west scotland will have outbreaks of rain, the rain in north—west england will edge over the pennines into the north—east through the second half of the day and turning cloudy in the midlands, south—east wales, parts of south—west england but western wales brightens up, and lincolnshire towards east anglia, the south—east and the channel islands, a lovely sunny afternoon in store with temperatures as high as 24. temperatures dipping this week and certainly tonight dipping in western scotla nd certainly tonight dipping in western scotland and northern ireland with clear skies. down to two or three in the countryside. where we have cloud and occasional rain, eastern scotland, northern england, the midlands and the south—west, temperatures in the mid—teens and cooler and misty in the south—east corner. a 3—way split tomorrow, the weather front has nudged further east, the far north of scotland, north—east england, the midlands and

the south—east will have the cloudy as the conditions with the chance of showers. sum towards the coast of east anglia and the south—east, but temperatures best today. —— sum towards. the best in parts of central and western scotland, north—west england, northern ireland and western wales. as for the middle pa rt and western wales. as for the middle part of the week, variable amounts of cloud with sunshine, but we will see the breeze picked up, the temperatures start to drop and by thursday, outbreaks of rain developing and that's because the weather charts for the end of the week compared to the summer warmth of the weekend, and looking more autumnal. the area of low pressure sits across the uk, weather fronts spiralling. difficult to pick out where the wet spots will be at this stage, but compared to the weekend, the week ahead looks that bit cooler gradually and the chance of rain at times. more later. thank you very much, matt. good news at the end of last week. good news at the end of last week.

good news at the end of last week. good news for gardens. we do need a bit of rain here and there. let's take a look at some of the stories on today's front pages. the mail asks, "is any child safe online? " this is the story we've been bringing you this morning about 80,000 people posing a threat to children online. they are talking about the battle of sunday night tv, bodyguard on bbc, vanity fair on itv. borisjohnson is on the cover of the telegraph describing theresa may's brexit plans as a fix which will only lead to victory for the eu. we will speak to his sister, the journalist racheljohnson, at about 8:15am this morning. a picture of a jubilant sam curran on the front of the times. the 20—year—old took the final wicket in england's test victory over india yesterday. and the daily star's looking ahead to the upcoming series of i'm a celebrity. new host holly willoughby will be sharing a posh penthouse with dec as she steps in to replace ant mcpartlin. shall we look at the inside pages as

well? what have you got? we will be talking about this later, about organ donation, this comes from the daily mirror. maxjohnson starring ina new daily mirror. maxjohnson starring in a new video to promote organ donation week today with the family that saved his life. he's the poster boy for... this is a campaign to try to get more of us to commit to being organ donors. we're talking about that a little bit later. the facts and figures are quite interesting, 80% of people would want to be organ donors... but a lot of them haven't talked to their families. that's when the rubber hits the road. i went to birmingham, queen elizabeth hospital, a few years ago to do a piece on organ donation and a lot of times the discussion hasn't happened in the family and when it comes to the crucial moment, lots of family say i don't want to do that and they pull out. in about 20 minutes we will have this discussion and talk to someone who talks directly with families in those incredibly

difficult circumstances. must be incredibly difficult. watford fans, i know lots of you are waking up and delighted your team has won four from four in the premier league but look at this picture in some of the papers. zachary celebrating watford beating spurs for the first time in an off lee long time and they have a perfect 100% record so far this season “— perfect 100% record so far this season —— in an all flee long time. they look very happy about it! petrol and diesel cars will be banned from nine roads in east london from today in a bid to tackle toxic air. drivers will receive a £130 penalty if they use anything other than electric or hybrid models in areas of hackney and islington. 0ur reporterjohn maguirejoins us now. good morning. we're talking about this area, as you describe, on the fringes of hackney and islington in east london. quite small streets. quite quiet partly because there is a very large, busy main roads that

goes around the edge. will pollution blow across? more on that in a second. it's a start and the council is running this part of london say something needs to be done. there's a secondary school there, and inset day today, but they will be back for the autumn term in the next couple of days. will this improve air quality for those students and indeed for everyone else who lives and works in this part of london? london's dirty air is blamed for around 9,500 premature deaths every year. air quality‘s monitored constantly across the city, and scientists have a good idea of what causes pollution, when it's at its worst and who is most at risk. just a street away from the diesel and petrol ban zone is a main road where doctor rick thomas from the university of birmingham is using a hand—held monitor to track nitrogen dioxide levels. they are high, but well within the legal limit. there are all sorts of pollutants that we can measure from cars, of course.

this is just one of them, n02, and we're getting about 119 micrograms per metre cubed. this is pretty typical of what we'd expect next to a road, next to all these vehicles coming past. the legal limit is 219 micrograms cubed over the course of one hour, and that has already been breached in various places in london throughout the year. walking away from the main roads, this is the area where the rush—hour ban will take effect. it's already a lot quieter. are we seeing much of a difference? we're seeing a little difference. it's about 78 micrograms per metre cubed, and there we were reading closer to 100, a little over 100. it's only about 40 metres away, so we obviously expect on the wind things to drift in and appear here. around the world, targets are being set for electric or vehicles with extremely low emissions. there's no doubt pollution levels are often dangerously high.

it's now up to local authorities, governments, industry and consumers to decide how best to clean up the air that we breathe. i must say, most of the people coming through this morning are on b i cycles, coming through this morning are on bicycles, so they're not polluting obviously. we can speak to this woman from environmental defence fund europe, should they have been more bold and gone further?” welcome schemes like this, initiatives from the mayor and the london boroughs are a great start and it's doing something were actually the government is really failing. we know london breaches the annual legal air quality limits within the first few weeks of every year. something more has to be done. technology's actually changing the way that we see but also solve environmental problems like air pollution, which continues to pose a

really serious risk to our health and what we're doing at environmental defence fund europe is we're bringing together experts to get a more finer grained picture of this issue. so in this area, for example, we have monitoring so that we know there are illegal levels, but we don't know street by street measurements. that's what we want to do and that's what we're working with the mayor to deliver over the coming year. trying to find out the really local picture. wind blows, we saw that in our report from filming last week, can you be so specific as to make it street by street, is that a sensible idea? that's what we'll be doing, we will combine static on uttering and mobile monitoring to get that data, and one of the important things is to translate that data into action. notjust allowing communities to put in schemes like this, but really impact

the key sources of air pollution, but also to get them calling on politicians to actually do something much bigger. therefore we have a much bigger. therefore we have a much bigger. therefore we have a much bigger effort to try to tackle this issue. thank you very much indeed. the first of its type in the uk, this scheme, started at 7am, around 25 minutes ago. it's in place in the morning and the evening and we will see how it goes. it's a nine—month trial period and then we will all come back together and assess whether or not it's made any difference. lots of cyclists there this morning! thanks very much, john. you're watching breakfast. plenty more to come this morning, including some good news on british manufacturing from steph. good morning to you and good morning, everyone. i'm inside one of the trains. this is one part of the production line where they've been putting the insulation in. let's go to the other bit. it takes about a week to make one or two trains here

and there are hundreds. some from great western, scotrail, some of the new trains running on the barely any online, the east coast. then you can see the cabling put in. these guys get the outside shell and then we... 70% of what they put inside comes from manufacturers 40 miles away. door panels, data cables. then you have lighting. a couple of the workers here, this isjenna and keeley, they started at 7am. morning! morning! let me tell you about keeley, she was a beauty therapist and a hairdresser and she's now working here and her bosses call her fire fingers, she is so bosses call her fire fingers, she is so speedy because of her dexterity to do the job in her hands. we will talk to the hitachi boss later to see what they're doing for investment and where the money is coming from. last year saw the biggest investment in new trains for

more than a decade. they are bidding to make the trains for hs2 here as well. of course there's the uncertainty of brexit. first i will leave you with the ladies doing theirjob stoppila leave you with the ladies doing their job stoppila sunzu leave you with the ladies doing theirjob stoppila sunzu the news, travel and weather where you are —— doing theirjob. but first let's get the news, travel and weather where you are this morning. good morning from bbc london news, i'm sara 0rchard. it's claimed thousands of council homes across the capital will be lost as old estates are redeveloped. figures obtained by freedom of information requests to all local authorities in london show 120 council estates are being updated, but campaigners fear social housing stock won't be replaced. we've got a net loss of over 4,000 homes in schemes that have been completed over the last 15 years. and when you look forwards, schemes that have planning permission now, it gets even worse. there's 7,600 homes to be lost over the next ten years, so the whole process is accelerating. police are appealing for witnesses after a teenager

was shot on a busy road in south london. paramedics were called to york road in wandsworth yesterday morning. a 16—year—old boy was taken to hospital. he's now in a stable condition. no arrests have been made. the metropolitan police has sold more than £1 billion worth of property over the past six years as it tries to cope with cuts. among the buildings let go include new scotland yard which went for £370 million. last year, the mayor closed 38 stations to save money and warned the met is running out of options for resources, but the home office insists it has increased funding for london's police. let's have a look at the travel situation now. 0n the tubes, we have a good service on all lines. 0n the trains, there are 20—minute delays on greater anglia southbound into liverpool street from hertford east and harlow town due to signal problem. it's also affecting sta nsted express. there's also disruption and cancellations on southern trains between redhill and tonbridge and reigate and victoria because of a shortage of crews. in leyton, lea bridge road is closed

both ways at peterborough road because of an accident. the m23 southbound is slow towards gatwick airport through the roadworks. in south london, on the a2 0ld kent road, the cross over with glengall road, is shut because of a crash earlier and the traffic lights aren't working. let's have a check on the weather now with sara thornton. good morning to you. yesterday we saw highs in the london area of 25 degrees. not impossible to think we'll see something like that again today. another fabulous day in prospect. dry, lots of sunshine and, as i say, feeling warm. so not much to point at on the map across the whole of the london area. behind me, though, there is a stripe of cloud that could be a game—changer for tomorrow and the middle part of the week, but in the meantime, today highs of 23, or maybe 25 celsius in one or two spots. through the night tonight, we keep the clear skies across london and most of the suburbs. you can see that cloud is just starting to push in a little bit

from the west by tomorrow morning. double figures in our towns. a little bit cooler, though, under clear skies in the countryside and then tomorrow, that cloud slowly slipping its way in from the west. not as sunny as today, not as warm either. 21, maybe 22 degrees. that cloud continues to push in for wednesday as well. it will bring us a splash of rain, a little bit coolerfor the middle part of the 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 dan and louise. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast, with dan walker and louise minchin. here is a summary of this morning's main stories from bbc news: at least 80,000 people in the uk are estimated to pose a sexual threat to children online. the figures were released by the home sectretary, sajid javid, who will outline today what he calls his personal mission to tackle abuse. it comes as new figures also show

a 700% surge in the number of referrals of indecent images to the national crime agency in the last five years. they want tech giants to do more to help stop this. borisjohnson has savaged the prime minister's brexit strategy and claimed that the uk will get diddly squat from the negotiations. writing in the daily telegraph, he compares the talks to a fixed wrestling bout, and insists the chequers proposals will lead to losing the advantages of leaving the eu. theresa may has said she is confident the government can broker a good dealfor britain. a fire has destroyed a large section of the landmark former littlewoods pools building in liverpool. the blaze broke outjust before 8:00pm last night and it took 50 firefighters several hours to bring it under control. the five—story art deco structure had been empty for the last 15 years, but part of the building was due to be turned into a film and tv production site. a huge fire has broken out

at the national museum of brazil in rio de janeiro. firefighters are tackling the blaze at the building, which contains more than 20 million items in its collection. there have so far been no reports of any injuries. the museum, which once served as the residence for the portuguese royal family, celebrated its 200—year anniversary earlier this year. motorists stopped by police in some areas will have their licences revoked immediately if they fail a roadside eye test. the crackdown aims to catch some of the thousands of drivers who get behind the wheel each day despite having defective sight. in 2012, a study claimed poor vision was causing almost 3,000 casualties a year. the forces operating the new test are thames valley, hampshire and west midlands. coming up on the programme, matt will have the weather for you. if you like rain, you will probably

enjoy the end of the week. and it has been a great test series. enjoy the end of the week. and it has been a great test seriesm enjoy the end of the week. and it has been a great test series. it has been great, and forjoe root to say it is his favourite women ever gives you some indication of how important it has been the england over the last few weeks. he says it is his best victory ever and he has won a few things over the years. that was describing england's win against india in the fourth test at southampton. they won by 60 runs to wrap up the series with a test to spare, as james burford reports. as the dust settled on a frantic morning session, england put their heads together. the target — seven wickets to win the series. but, formidable as ever, virat kohli set about frustrating england's bowlers. he may well earn man of the series — another box—office 50 from india's captain. a box set of brilliant shots, running circles around the england attack. but, in spinner moeen ali, england have a man full of his own tricks. perhaps, where others failed, he would prevail. ali to kohli, coolly caught. india's talisman gone.

cue the batting collapse — six wickets for just 43 runs, everything falling into england hands. until the most fitting of finales — sam curran, just 20 years old. that's got to feel good. taking an unassailable 3—1 lead, with a match still to play, england have beaten the number one side in the world. james burford, bbc news. credit to india, they've played some really fine cricket throughout, not just this game, but the whole series. you look across it, it must have been great viewing for people at home to see, the way that especially the first two games went. sorry, the first game and this one, how tight they've been and how it swung both ways. i think it's a really good sign for test cricket. three teams still have their 100% record after the weekend's football in the premier league — liverpool, chelsea, and watford, the first time they have won their first four games in the top flight, and their first win over spurs in more than 30 years. it finished 2—1, craig cathcart with the winner, much to the delight

of the ‘rocket man' himself, watford's honorary life president, eltonjohn. so many puns, so little time. watford still standing at the top of the league. jetted back in with the beckhams. you know things aren't going well when there is a plane and a banner. this is how manchester united's day started at burnley. but a 2—0 win for united eased the pressure onjose mourinho and executive vice chairman ed woodward. but it wasn't all plain sailing. marcus rashford was sent off in the second half for leaning into burnley defender phil bardsley with his head. rashford full of regret after the match, apologising on social media. he says he let his emotions get the better of him.

his boss, jose mourinho, defended him, calling him a naive boy. i would say a kid, a kid and a very inexperienced man. marcus is still a naive boy. arsenal had to fight off a cardiff comeback to seal a first away win of the season. cardiff twice came from behind, before alexandre lacazette smashed in this second—half winner for arsenal, who have really struggled away from home in 2018. it finished 3—2. celtic won the first old firm of the season, 0livier ntcham finishing off a lovely, sweeping move for the home side. it was a first defeat for rangers manager steven gerrard since he took over the club this summer. lewis hamilton's lead at the top of the formula one championship is now 30 points afer he won the italian grand prix. he started from third, but overtook both ferraris in the race, including title rival sebastian vettel, on the first lap. it is hamilton's sixth win

of the season, seven races and a maximum of 175 points remaining this season. defending champion rafael nadal is through to the quarter—finals of the us open. the world number one took the first two sets comfortably against nikoloz basilashvili, before losing the third on a tiebreak. the spaniard dispatched the georgian 6—4 in the fourth set to advance to the last eight. and serena williams is through to the quarter—finals after being taken the distance by kaia kanepi. williams won the first set injust 18 minutes, but had to come through in three to book a last—eight match against karolina pliskova. she is wearing a tutu! she has a lot

of style. i want that dress. i might not look as good as she does, but it might make my tennis better. remember the name matt wallace. here he is winning a four—way, all—english play—off to win the made in denmark open, and more importantly, boost his hopes of a ryder cup wild card pick. wallace had said he wanted to give european captain thomas bjorn a headache, and he duly delivered. he built it up beforehand saying he needed to win the tournament, and he birdied ten of his last 13 holes to win. and five of the last six. that is real mental toughness. unusual trophy. did anyone notice that? and unusual trophy. now, the 11th tier of english football isn't the place you would expect to see one of the premier league's greatest players.

but former manchester united legend paul scholes laced up his boots after a call from the manager of royton town. they were short of players, so the 43—year—old stepped in. he couldn't stop them from losing 1—0, though. that is a good sub to have. we mentioned that we were going to cover this story earlier on. lots of our view is get involved, with good reason. “— our view is get involved, with good reason. —— viewers. it can mean the difference between life and death for recipients, but some families still struggle with the idea of giving up their relatives' organs for donation. new figures show that about 3,000 lifesaving transplants weren't carried out in the last year because families refused to donate their loved one's organs. let's speak now to jade carr, who has had a heart and kidney

transplant, and specialist nurse laura ellis morgan. thank you forjoining us. somebody donated their heart when you are really little. that's right, i was only three when i had my heart transplant. i can't really remember what it was like now, i was so little, so i can't remember that experience. but my parents remember, and the other transplant i do remember. in the second transplant was from a living donor. yes, kidney are received from an old juristic donor. someone completely random who don't know. i had someone donated their kidney while they were still alive. and how long did you wait for that kidney? i was on the transplant list for about five years, i went on

after being diagnosed with kidney failure. so it was a long wait but i feel quite lucky that people have waited a lot longer than me. you are incredibly lucky. tell us about the kind of conversations that you have had. you engage with families in the most horrific situation. how do you even begin to talk about giving their loved ones' organs? it is obviously a very difficult conversation to have with the family, but we as specialist nurses feel privileged to be involved in that family and looking after them at the end of their loved ones' life. and i always think that me talking to them about organ donation can't be worse than the news they have already been given that their loved one is not going to survive. so for many families having that conversation and discussing the option of organ donation is something they can actually focus

on, and think about something they have control of, in this awful circum— stance, as you say. many families feel that all of a sudden they have a sense of purpose and something they can focus on and think about, and it is a positive thing for them to look forward to in the future. we were discussing the figures earlier. 80% of people seem to support organ donation, but only a third have had that conversation with their family. it is something we often mentioned, it is the art of conversation. we need to talk about these things even though they can be difficult. we do, it is a bit stiff upper lip and we don't like to talk about conversations that are difficult. and sometimes even family members of mine that know that i do thisjob and members of mine that know that i do this job and how passionate members of mine that know that i do thisjob and how passionate i am about organ donation and saving other people's lives, sometimes they find it difficult talking to me about their wishes. i think what we have to do is make sure that people

ta ke have to do is make sure that people take action now, if you are at home watching today with your loved ones, turn to them and talk about it. because in the donation and transplant community we are tirelessly working to try and reduce the number of people on the waiting lists, but we can't do that if more people don't consent. and window -- we know this new system called max's law is already in place in wales. how much of a difference... you had to wait for a kidney transplant, and you have friends who were also waiting. how difficult is that waiting. how difficult is that waiting period, as well? it is awful. you are so poorly while you're waiting for these transplants, and some people are waiting for phone call, for that transplant to save their life, really. like i said, when i got my altruistic donor kidney, people need

to realise that they can also help people while they are still alive, as well. and be a living donor. i understand you can donate a kidney, parts of your liver. so you can save people's lives, whether it is family members orfriends, people's lives, whether it is family members or friends, or like people's lives, whether it is family members orfriends, or like my donor, who is altruistic, they didn't know me. theyjust wanted to save someone's life, so you can still do that. but we are desperate for donors to save people's lives, and you need to have that conversation, to let people know what you are wanting to do. and the vast majority are still anonymous. when you are an old juristic donor, you are primarily anonymous —— old —— altruistic donor, you are primarily anonymous. you can also donate to a loved one, and it can be facilitated by the donation team.

thank you for coming to see us. thank you for coming to see us. thank you. here is matt with a look at this morning's weather. some rainy news on the way for the next few days? good morning. not raining all the time but some rain on the way and feeling more like autumn through the week. not a bad start in the highlands, sunshine breaking through the morning cloud, a good day, as for quite a few of you but the picture in grange over sands in cumbria, wet platform, the rain is already with you. looking at the radar chart, a weatherfront over eastern scotland, north—west england, wales, into the south—west, some bursts of rain through the day and it really cuts the country into three. to the south and east of that, mist and fog, clearing but a lovely and sunny and warm day in some parts of northern england. to the north and west of it, sunshine in mourning, northern ireland, cloud break in up in western scotland and many staying fine. the weather front not going east in a hurry, so cloudy

in eastern scotland and with the rain in the forecast, cooler than yesterday with temperatures, 25 or 26 here, only 14 to 17 at best. northern ireland, sunny spells throughout, brightening up in the rest of northern england by the afternoon but cloud in up in the pennines, the chance of showers, the same in the midlands. dry in west wales and cornwall after morning rain. in the channel islands, east anglia and the south—east, or mr today, 23 or 24 with sunshine coming and going. tonight, our weather front is still there producing patchy rain and drizzle. either side of it clear skies and turning cooler, noticeably in northern and western scotland and northern ireland, single figures on tuesday morning. three or two macro greece. patchy rain and drizzle where you have the cloud. —— two or three degrees. in north—west scotland, north—west england and eastern scotla nd north—west england and eastern scotland could stay cloudy through

the day with the chance of rain. brightening up maybe later in the afternoon. it is idle that, dry weather. sunny spells and the chance of some showers to the coast of east anglia and the far south—east, pleasa ntly warm anglia and the far south—east, pleasantly warm when the sun is on your back —— either side of that. cooler weather will be more noticeable through the second half of the week. wednesday and thursday, dry weather around, variable amounts of cloud, but the chance of some showers cropping up and as the breeze picks up, noticeably cooler and to the end of the week, definitely feeling like autumn. cooler and windy with a greater chance of rain here and there. but, dan and louise, as you will see today, some will still see some sunshine at times. you mentioned autumn and no doubt the trees are beginning to turn. exactly. do you know how much we spend on new trains yesterday? -- last year? £767 million was spent on new trains for the uk's railways, the biggest

investment in a decade. steph's at a factory near darlington this morning. good morning. i'm changing where i am so you can see this train carriage that's been brought out. they're going to do some work on it here. this is fascinating. this is their factory here up here. this is fascinating. this is theirfactory here up in newton aycliffe. it's fascinating how it works. these carriages will be brought in, the outer shell, shipped from japan, that will take about two months and they will come into tees port and months and they will come into tees portand in months and they will come into tees port and in this building they will put everything inside the train, everything from your in, installation, cabling, seats, windows, everything —— your installation. there's lots of people inside the trains working, you can't see them, but this is a big business, employing around 1400 here, so certainly a busy operation. ross, chief operating officerfor hitachi europe. good morning. where does the business come from and where is it going? hitachi have invested £100 million in this

facility, primarily our big pipeline is for the facility, primarily our big pipeline is forthe uk, facility, primarily our big pipeline is for the uk, we service the uk with our own stock market. h52 is on the horizon, nexus as well are what we are looking at at the moment. you will put in a bid to make them and how long does it take and what happens next? quite a lengthy timescale, as you can buy gym, public money, here to service the uk market. —— public money, here to service the uk market. — — you public money, here to service the uk market. —— you can imagine. it's a fairly lengthy process. we will put in the bid for h52 and they weren't going to service until 2026. how do you make sure you've got everything ready? preparation of the supply base, working from previous experience, the capability. hitachi have a long 100 year heritage of train building experience. famous for the japanese bullet train. that we believe will be our leverage as we believe will be our leverage as we go forward, we want to be a british icon. you have scotrail,

great western, lner, but recently you didn't get the contract for the trans—pennine express, that went to the italian factory, why was that? manufacturers in japan and the italian factory, why was that? manufacturers injapan and italy the italian factory, why was that? manufacturers in japan and italy and europe for ourselves. we are working ona europe for ourselves. we are working on a lot of programmes at the moment and the factory is full, we are at capacity. you can't make any more at the moment or are you going to expand? we're looking to expand. we wa nt full expand? we're looking to expand. we want full scope, full assembly at newton aycliffe and that's our aspiration going forward for hitachi aspiration going forward for hitachi asa aspiration going forward for hitachi as a business. the outer shells come from japan, is there a plan to change that and get them made here? body shell manufacturing would be the natural step for newton aycliffe to incorporate that. often when i talk to businesses at the moment, they are saying uncertainty is an issue for them, is that something you're worried about? brexit is the question, that's the challenge. very difficult from a planning point of view. hitachi have been prepared, we are demonstrating our capability on

our current programmes and primarily we are here to be involved in the uk market. would it impact the business if we leave? we have a global business, but we are here mainly to do the uk market but also could go into europe. you created your own phrase there, brexnot. we can speak to the chief economist at the us, which represents manufacturers. ross explained how the uncertainty of brexit is affecting things, what's going on? it's great to see the buzz today and it's a picture you would see right across the country in manufacturing. companies are reasonably upbeat about their output, their orders prospects. the global economy is still pretty supportive but you're right, clearly brexit is the potential cloud on the horizon. a huge step into the unknown for lots of companies and

they think that's probably weighing on confidence and investment plans across the sector, potentially a worry for future growth and productivity, which is a bit problematic for the industry. are there things to be optimistic about? there's always things to be optimistic about. uk manufacturing is incredibly resilient. we're seeing good growth as companies have tapped in to lots of opportunities around the world. there's a huge amount of innovation going on, thinking about some of the big challenges that our economy faces, like future transport systems, ageing population, uk manufacturing will be a big part of driving those solutions and a big part of the economy going forward. thanks for your time. i will leave you with a shot of the trains and i will take you back inside to another bit a bit later and you can meet some of the people working on them. it's fascinating, you never get to see underneath a train, do you? there you are, i will leave you with this shot of the team working. more

from me later. thanks, steph. we will be back with you later. good to see a bit of productivity this morning! dan has been driving me bananas this morning. he has been singing this... do—do—do—do, baby shark. let's have a look at some of them. have a look at this adorable video of five—year—old noah from plymouth and in by dad, look. —— luke. is it isit1.6 is it 1.6 billion times it has been watched on youtube? i'm sorry, for the parents that have had that in ahead for the last many weeks of the summer holidays, we are sorry for throwing that ear worm your weight. we thought we would celebrate and it's been in dan's head the whole

time —— earworm your way. the best thing to do apparently when you have an earworm is to get distracted, so let's do that with our next guest. he found fame as one of lord sugar‘s wingmen on the apprentice, and since then nick hewer has appeared on many of our favourite tv shows, from question time to countdown. nick's going to be talking to us about his new book a bit later in the programme. but first, you might have seen people having a hoot about him on social media recently. your owl... for those that don't know, you posted this picture last week, explain what happened with this owl? well, it flew through the bathroom window and unfortunately opposite the bathroom window on the other wall was a mirror and the poor owl for the reflection on the window was the way out —— of the window. he came toa was the way out —— of the window. he came to a sudden halt. i came in the next morning to see this beautiful creature dead. i put on a very sensible tweet that said rest in peace my barn owl and all the rest

of it and it went mad on twitter. people said it was weird, i thought it was very sensible. it's in my freezer and i go down to see him or her on thursday to talk to its spirit about taxidermy. to see what it thinks? i can see why evil might think it is a bit strange! it lived in france this particular owl? -- people might. it lived in my barn down there and people would see it flying silently for years. deep in the country, there were lots of mice around and it kept them under control. now the owl has gone the mice population will grow. i had a snake in the cellar, the other way to keep the mice down. that came to an unhappy end in the kitchen. as well? i killed it actually. i shouldn't have said that! you've got yourself in trouble again now!” shouldn't have said that! you've got yourself in trouble again now! i was frightened. what kind of snake was

it? i've no idea but it was too big for the kitchen. how did you dispose of it, how did you kill it?” for the kitchen. how did you dispose of it, how did you kill it? i faked it with a stick and got it on the other side, in a plastic bag and i took it to my local farmer to say look at what i've done and he called mea look at what i've done and he called me a full, people pray to have a snake like that in their kitchen. i askedif snake like that in their kitchen. i asked if i would get another one and he said only if you pray constantly. who knew we would be talking about snakes and owls! we will see you in 40 minutes. loosen up and then we will speak to you smack any owls beware! we will be back in a couple of minutes. good morning from bbc london news, i'm sara 0rchard. it's claimed thousands of council homes across the capital will be lost as old estates are redeveloped. figures obtained by freedom of information requests to all local authorities in london show 120 council estates are being updated, but campaigners fear social housing stock won't be replaced.

we've got a net loss of over 4,000 homes in schemes that have been completed over the last 15 years. and when you look forwards, schemes that have planning permission now, it gets even worse. there's 7,600 homes to be lost over the next ten years, so the whole process is accelerating. police are appealing for witnesses after a teenager was shot on a busy road in south london. paramedics were called to york road in wandsworth yesterday morning. a 16—year—old boy was taken to hospital. he's now in a stable condition. no arrests have been made. the metropolitan police has sold more than £1 billion worth of property over the past six years as it tries to cope with cuts. among the buildings let go include new scotland yard which went for £370 million. last year, the mayor closed 38 stations to save money and warned the met is running out of options for resources, but the home office insists it has increased funding

for london's police. petrol and diesel cars will be banned from nine roads in hackney and islington from today in a bid to tackle toxic air. 0nly electric or hybrid models will be allowed on selected roads during parts of rush hour on weekdays. drivers in more polluting cars can be fined £130. let's have a look at the travel situation now. 0n the tubes, we have a good service on all lines. 0n the trains, there are 30—minute delays on greater anglia services southbound into liverpool street from hertford east and harlow town due to signal problem. it's also affecting the sta nsted express. there's also disruption and cancellations on southern trains between redhill and tonbridge and reigate and victoria because of a shortage of crews. in south london, the a2 0ld kent road, the cross over with glengall road, is shut because of a crash earlier. let's have a check on the weather now with sara thornton. good morning to you.

yesterday we saw highs in the london area of 25 degrees. not impossible to think we'll see something like that again today. another fabulous day in prospect. dry, lots of sunshine and, as i say, feeling warm. so not much to point at on the map across the whole of the london area. behind me, though, there is a stripe of cloud that could be a game—changer for tomorrow and the middle part of the week, but in the meantime, today highs of 23, 24 or maybe 25 celsius in one or two spots. through the night tonight, we keep the clear skies across london and most of the suburbs. you can see that cloud is just starting to push in a little bit from the west by tomorrow morning. double figures in our towns. a little bit cooler, though, under the clear skies in the countryside and then tomorrow, that cloud slowly slipping its way in from the west. not as sunny as today, not as warm either. 21, maybe 22 degrees. that cloud continues to push in for wednesday as well. it will bring us a splash of rain, a little bit coolerfor the middle part of the week.

i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. good morning welcome to breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. good morning and welcome to breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. 0ur headlines today. shocking new figures on child abuse — at least 80,000 people in the uk are said to pose a threat to children online. borisjohnson savages the prime minister's brexit strategy saying the uk will get diddly squat from the negotiations. a huge fire has ripped through the iconic littlewoods building in liverpool. good morning from the hitachi rail factory. last year saw the biggest investment in new trains for more than a decade. i'm going to be taking you inside some of them to see how the business works. in sport, sunday night's all right for watford, as elton watches on. while we have some summer warmth

holding on across parts of eastern england today, elsewhere we start a week with things starting to turn more autumnal. i will have the details coming up on breakfast. good morning, it's monday september the 3rd. our top story. the home secretary sajid javid says he's shocked at the scale of online child abuse and has vowed to make it his personal mission to tackle it. it comes as new figures show that the number of referrals of child abuse images to the national crime agency surged by 700% in the last five years. 0ur correspondent duncan kennedy reports. child abuse images — the 21st—century curse on the internet. the home office says today that pictures are getting more graphic, and technology is making it easier to fund and facilitate this vile trade. the new figures from the national crime agency today show the scale of what is going on. it says there are now up to 80,000 people in the uk who present some

kind of sexual threat to children online, and that in the past five years there has been a 700% increase in the number of child abuse images referred to the nca. the home secretary, sajid javid, will today give what is being called a flagship speech on the issue. having visited the nca to see its work, mrjavid is expected to speak of the full horror of the scale and evolving nature of child sexual abuse. really now we need to see a coordinated response, led by government, but with law enforcement and crucially also industry. because what we've seen for the last few years is that the big social networks in particular have failed to take the steps that they need to to keep children safe on their platforms. that's why we now need government to step in and deliver statutory regulation of these sites. the nca says it has just arrested more than 130 people in its latest operation against online child abuse. but it says this is just a fraction of the wider problem.

duncan kennedy, bbc news. borisjohnson has attacked the prime minister's brexit strategy. he described it as a fix, and claims that the uk will get what he calls "two thirds of diddly squat" from the negotiations. he also accuses some members of the government of using the irish border issue to stop a proper brexit. 0ur political correspondent susana mendonca is in westminster. good morning. this is a pretty strong worded attack on theresa may. borisjohnson also said the government is going to battle with the white flag fluttering, the uk will be left flat on the campus and the scandal of brexit isn't that the government has failed but it never tried. just some of the comments he has made in that column. all of this will be a rallying cry for those

brexiteers who want there to be an alternative to the chequers plan, they are planning to put their own alternative ideas forward and four theresa may kit creates a difficult situation because she has the brexiteers on one side who are unhappy and the remain mps at westminster who think the chequers plan doesn't go far enough and on top of that michel barnier, the eu chief negotiator, saying he is strongly opposed to elements of her chequers plan. it is a new term at westminster and these are going to be some very difficult weeks and months ahead for theresa may, she has to try and get all of this past parliament here and also passed the eu and all of this doesn't help her cause. susana mendonca, thank you. we'll be speaking to the journalist racheljohnson, who's a remainer and, of course, borisjohnson's sister, in just a few minutes. and gisela stuart as well. a huge blaze has destroyed part of the littlewoods pools building, one of liverpool's most famous landmarks. the art deco structure has been empty for around 15 years, but in the last few weeks plans had been announced for a major new complex at the site, including film and tv studios.

let's look at what it looks like this morning. dave guestjoins us now from liverpool. good morning. good morning, louise. the fire is all but out now but it has caused extensive damage to this art deco building, one of the best—known landmarks in liverpool, empty for a number of years but ambitious plans to turn it into a television studio. i'm joined by gary from merseyside fire and rescue, 50 firefighters worked to save this building, how difficult was it? it started on the first floors and spread to the roof space, we brought in appliances to deal with the fire that had extensively spread. the structural safety inside the building wasn't great so we had to pull out firefighters very early into the incident and deal with external firefighting only until we got full

control. we protected one wing and stopped the fire spreading to the ce ntre stopped the fire spreading to the centre part of the building and the other fire on the frontage of the building. we were pretty prompt in our actions in that regard. after four or five hours we got control of the building and we have been hot spotting and damping down overnight. we are likely to be on the scene for several hours during the day to conduct fire in depth investigation. we have the main arterial road now open into liverpool. the upper floors of the roof have been damaged. is the structure of the building more or less intact? the internal structure has been severely damaged and a building surveyor will make a further assessment during the day. we are confident that what you see on the outside, the art deco bit which is taking some interest, can survive and that the information we have had so far. thank you for joining us. it seems the building itself will be ok and we have to wait and see whether the plans to redevelop it can continue. david,

thank you. a huge fire has broken out at the national museum of brazil in rio dejaneiro. firefighters are tackling the blaze at the building, which contains more than 20 million items in its collection. there have so far been no reports of any injuries. the museum, which once served as the residence for the portuguese royal family, celebrated its 200—year anniversary earlier this year. around 3,000 life—saving transplants weren't carried out in the last year because families refused to donate their relative's organs. the nhs figures show that 80% of people support organ donation, but only a third have told theirfamily they want to donate. a new opt—out system, which already operates in wales, is due to be introduced in england by 2020, but doctors warn thousands of lives could be lost in the mean—time. the number of migrants arriving in europe has fallen, but the number dying during the journey has risen dramatically according to the un refugee agency. it says 1,600 people have died so far this year and the fatality

rate has gone up from one in 42 people to one in 18. it wants european countries to make it easier for migrants to join family members already here, and an increase in resettlement places. motorists stopped by police in some areas will have their licences revoked immediately if they fail a roadside eye test. the crackdown aims to catch some of the thousands of drivers who get behind the wheel each day despite having defective sight. in 2012, a study claimed poor vision was causing almost 3,000 casualties a year. the forces operating the new test are thames valley, hampshire and west midlands. an 87—year—old motorist was recently stopped by police for driving the wrong way down the road — and then failed an eye test. surrey police tweeted this picture of him taking the examination. he could only read a number plate from 7.3 metres away when the minimum distance is 20.5 metres. the force said he voluntarily surrendered his driving licence. it is 8:09am.

petrol and diesel cars will be banned from nine roads in east london from today, in a bid to tackle toxic air. drivers will receive a £130 penalty if they use anything other than electric or hybrid models in some areas. 0ur reporterjohn maguirejoins us now. how much of a difference would this make? the hope is to reduce pollution levels in london. absolutely. we have a secondary school around the corner we have been filming outside of most of this morning, so that's the main area of concern here. i will be perfectly honest with you, there is a maine road 20 yards behind the camera. where we are it is pretty quiet but it's a start, is what the local council is saying, the first of its kind in the uk to take this drastic action, very much a stick and carrot a lwa ys action, very much a stick and carrot always in these situations. this is

the first of its kind in the uk. we will have to see how it goes. pollution varies depending on distance and volume of traffic, all sorts of factors. we were here last week to try and get an idea of what sort of difference it would make. london's dirty air is blamed for around 9,500 premature deaths every year. air quality‘s monitored constantly across the city, and scientists have a good idea of what causes pollution, when it's at its worst and who is most at risk. just a street away from the diesel and petrol ban zone is a main road where dr rick thomas from the university of birmingham is using a hand—held monitor to track nitrogen dioxide levels. they are high, but well within the legal limit. there are all sorts of pollutants that we can measure from cars, of course. this is just one of them, n02, and we're getting about 119 micrograms per metre cubed. this is pretty typical of what we'd expect next to a road, next to all these vehicles coming past.

the legal limit is 219 micrograms cubed over the course of one hour, the legal limit is 200 micrograms cubed over the course of one hour, and that has already been breached in various places in london throughout the year. walking away from the main road, this is the area where the rush—hour ban will take effect. it's already a lot quieter. are we seeing much of a difference? we're seeing a little difference. it's about 78 micrograms per metre cubed, and there we were reading closer to 100, a little over 100. it's only about 40 metres away, so we obviously expect on the wind things to drift in and appear here. around the world, targets are being set for electric or vehicles with extremely low emissions. there's no doubt pollution levels are often dangerously high. it's now up to local authorities, governments, industry and consumers to decide how best to clean up the air that we breathe. you can probably hear a couple of

diesel engines in the background. people obviously haven't quite yet got the message. we can speak to a guest from ucl and the motoring journalist. you've done lots of research about schools and air pollution. what have your studies taught you? we have studied air quality and concentration of airborne pollutants like pollutant matter and nitrogen oxide in several schools over the past few years and there are two major findings. first is indoor levels of these pollutants closely follows the outdoor pollution level, indoor sources of pollution level, indoor sources of pollution as well but background pollution as well but background pollution closely follows it. you're not safe in a classroom if the pollution outside is high?m not safe in a classroom if the pollution outside is high? if the pollution outside is high? if the pollution is high outside it is not safe, we have the indoor outdoor ratio so buildings do protect to

some level but if the level is higher than the guideline limits than that recommended by the world health organization you will have high levels in doors. in plenty of classrooms we have studied in central london and greater london we have seen this problem both in terms of particulate matter, especially fine particulate matter, smaller than 2.5 micro metres and nitrogen dioxide. what do you make of it, amanda? dioxide. what do you make of it, amanda ? first day dioxide. what do you make of it, amanda? first day this morning, will it work? i do think it is the shape of things to come. i worry that the area they have chosen to conduct the study in is very small, and also not very heavily populated when you have actually got such heavy polluting areas surrounding it. i do wonder what results they will pull out from this. the other thing i think is worth mentioning is it is the start of what i think is going to be a two tier system of motoring, those who can afford it and those who can't.

0ur can afford it and those who can't. our study into electric vehicles has shown many people would like to own an electric vehicle but are put off by the cost and lack of charging infrastructure. it is fine if you live in a city but for the majority of people who don't live in a city in rural areas who have no access to public transport and are reliant on their motor vehicles, these other people who are most likely to bear biggest brunt on cost, it is going to bea biggest brunt on cost, it is going to be a serious issue. i think there are a numberof to be a serious issue. i think there are a number of questions still to arise from this and we haven't got the answer yet. i suppose it's a start, isn't it? it is a start and it's the shape of things to come. i ama it's the shape of things to come. i am a fan of electric vehicles. i just think it's very difficult when we haven't yet got the infrastructure in place to support it and what we are doing is penalising people who can least afford it in the process. from your research do you think that a scheme like this, albeit a small one, can make much difference? like this, albeit a small one, can make much difference ?” like this, albeit a small one, can make much difference? i think environmentally it is a step in the right direction. we should not treat

it as right direction. we should not treat itasa right direction. we should not treat it as a measure it in isolation and soi it as a measure it in isolation and so i couldn't agree amanda on that point. as part of the overall package of potential solutions. i understand there are plans to extend the scheme to other busy roads of london. it's quite important to be aware of potential unintended consequences as well. we might see, for example, a shift in the pattern of outdoor pollution to other parts of outdoor pollution to other parts of london so it's important to monitor the effectiveness of the scheme as well. but overall as a starting point we think environmentally it is a sound decision. thank you, folks. fascinating views and you will have your own viewers at home. it is a nine—month trial so we will have to see how it goes after that period. the ban is during the morning rush hour although you wouldn't call this street rush hour at the moment and in the evening. 0ther street rush hour at the moment and in the evening. other parts of london are looking to follow suit and there will be local authorities across the uk that will be watching very closely. thank you, john. 8:16am. some

breaking news this morning. chris eva ns, breaking news this morning. chris evans, host of radio two breakfast show, has announced on—air that he is to leave the most listens to radio show in the entirety of europe. he will be leaving the programme. apparently he was emotional on air this morning when he announced this and he said, i have loved every moment of my time at radio two. he has been at radio two for longer than that. the years have flashed by and i've learned so much from zoe lee people and i will be eternally grateful to them. as sir terry said before me, there is never a right time to leave something you love but there might bea something you love but there might be a wrong time if you hang onto long. i think the breakfast show is positive, sunny and as inclusive as it has ever been and in fine shape for its next custodian whoever it turns out to be. he's part of the whole breakfast family and i know many of you listen to radio two and

will miss him. can't believe it's been 13 years. when he announced that he was quite emotional so we will try and bring you a bit more detail about that later in the programme. chris evans is leaving radio two. there is no details as to when, there isn't a set date for when he is leaving but i'm sure we will find that out as well. good luck, chris, in whatever you choose to do next. we can find out what's happening with the weather over the next few days. a lovely start monday. it is not the same everywhere, like the picture behind me, but some areas have sunshine to look forward to. others will have gloomy skies overhead like over fife at the moment. that is because there is a weather front almost dissecting the country. 0utbreaks almost dissecting the country. outbreaks of rain for eastern scotla nd outbreaks of rain for eastern scotland and northern wales and edging into the south—west. this is

a cloudy zone. sunshine for much of the day either side of it. mist and fog for east anglia but that will shift over the next couple of hours. and warmer here. temperatures down on yesterday's values. yesterday across scotland, tebbutt is as high as 26 degrees. we are looking at 14 is your high today, so noticeably cooler. —— temperatures were as high as 26 degrees. there is a bit of a threat of rain for central scotland and the borders, edging across the pennines and into the north—east of england. brightening up in western parts of wales this afternoon. cloudy across the south—west. and increasingly into the midlands with some splashes of rain. channel islands and through to east anglia, dry, sunny, and warm, tebbutt is up to 24 degrees. tonight, this weather front is in no rush to leave our shores. —— temperatures up to 24 degrees. temperatures won't drop

below double figures under this cloudy system. a very chilly start from northern ireland and scotland tomorrow. cooler towards the south—east and east anglia. it will be cloudy than today. a bright day over much of scotland, northern ireland, western parts of wales. and north—west england. for the midlands and through to the south—west, still predominantly cloudy. brightening up into the afternoon but the chance of an odd shower, some drizzle, and temperatures widely into the teens. 22 baha'i in london. midweek, low— pressure moves 22 baha'i in london. midweek, low—pressure moves in, lots of dry weather to begin with. —— 22 your high in london. through the second half of the week it is set to turn cooler. a more autumnal week with the chance of rain. but there will still be some sunshine for many. thanks very much.

as mps return from their summer break, there's one subject at the top of everybody‘s agenda — brexit. yesterday the prime minister ruled out another referendum, and today her former foreign secretary borisjohnson has savaged her brexit plans, saying they would leave the uk with "diddly squat" after the negotiations. let's discuss all of that more now with the journalist racheljohnson, and the labour mp and former chair of vote leave gisela stuart. good morning to both of you. rachel, mentioning what theresa may said over the weekend, making it clear there would not be a second vote. is this largely a waste of time?l second vote? no, the campaign for a second vote? no, the campaign for a second vote. i don't think so. if you look at how the conservatives is almost uniting in its chequers plan, which as things stand will be the main shape of the deal on the table,

we have 16 million people who did not want to leave the eu at all. but the fact theresa may is even talking about a second referendum means we are closer than ever to having one. if you consider she kept on saying we wouldn't have another snap election, then she called one. i think it is right on the table and back on the agenda. where do you stand on this, gisela. the prime minister said what ever you decide i shall implement. two political parties in the last year went into general election promising to implement it. i think the voters now wa nt implement it. i think the voters now want parliament to do itsjob and deliver what they voted for. and to talk about a second referendum before you haven't lamented the first one, i think really undermines democracy. there are many ways of

adding colour to what gisela has just said. one of the most striking ones i have read, it is like a patient who is told he has terminal cancer and then decides to go to the dignitas. then the doctor gives him the all clear. but the patient thinks, i may as well go, because i've booked the plane tickets, i may as well go. we don't want to do that just because two years ago the public made a binary vote with a very narrow mandate on a yes no decision. they did not know what they voted for. allow the public, this is democracy, to have a vote when we know what we are voting for. what the next generation, our children and grandchildren, will be living with. you still treat brexit like an illness which requires treatment and explanation. there are other ones about going on holiday, it is raining, the rental is horrible, and you think it is nicer at home. because you disagree with

the way people voted, using they did know what they were voting for... absolutely not. the think they understood all of the issues about the irish border, trade, et knew. they wanted to know. —— nobody knew. they wanted to know. —— nobody knew. they wanted to know. —— nobody knew. they wanted to know who had the final say on their laws and taxes. how about spending our combined considerable energies to making sure we are getting that. and then people get what they voted for. and i think we will strengthen democracy and the country and everybody else will be better off. better off to the tune of £80 billion more borrowing a year, better off to the tune of a cheque to the eu of £40 billion just for leaving... let's just check cheque to the eu of £40 billion just for leaving... let'sjust check to see if we can agree on anything.” am very much enjoying your discussion! let mejust

am very much enjoying your discussion! let me just say, am very much enjoying your discussion! let mejust say, i think economic prosperity is the result of a functioning liberal democracy. i wa nt a functioning liberal democracy. i want a functioning liberal democracy. yes, who am i talking to? cani democracy. yes, who am i talking to? can ijust democracy. yes, who am i talking to? can i just say democracy. yes, who am i talking to? can ijust say how much i admire gisela. iam can ijust say how much i admire gisela. i am glad we have had women like gisela who actually make sense and talk in real language, rather than airyfairy, and talk in real language, rather than airy fairy, pure ideology. gisela is grounded woman. i was so she was fronting the leave campaign. it isa she was fronting the leave campaign. it is a shame we disagree! we agree on having more female voices in politics. can i put you a question, rachel, gisela has made this point before. if there was to be a second referendum what would the question be? it wouldn't be a yes, no, it would be, do you want this deal, do you want no deal, or, my preferred option, do you want us to remain in

the eu on the terms we were in the eu? it was a pretty sweet deal in my mind. as michel barnier ever offered that? the french ambassador, on the today programme, very recently, said they would be happy, nader lighted, if britain stayed in the eu. with all of the terms? —— nae delighted. we will have another vote, because thatis we will have another vote, because that is democracy. the definition of democracy, david davis said, you are not held by a previous vote, you can carry on having them. but do you think we should implement the first decision? is only the government could do that. it is two years and a bit and we are so far nowhere. gisela, there is this guy called borisjohnson, i gisela, there is this guy called boris johnson, i don't gisela, there is this guy called borisjohnson, i don't know if you have heard of him... no. chuckles

as rachel starts rolling her eyes. he is in yourfamily! as rachel starts rolling her eyes. he is in your family! he is a top chap. £40 billion of taxpayers money for two thirds of diddly squat, he said. i'm sure rachel will sponsor this. what do you think of his intervention over the weekend? —— i'm sure rachel will comment on this. he says their fundamentals which need implement in. what has been lacking so far actually showing what the future would look like. —— which need implement in. he will do thatjob at showing which need implement in. he will do that job at showing what the vision is like. the public out there, they either think we have already left. do you think? yes. why don't we tell them they have? 0r do you think? yes. why don't we tell them they have? or they want the politicians to get on with it. politicians are responsible for the future and it is about time they

focused on that. gisela is right. as soon as you leave what we call the bubble, we are right in the middle of it, right here, people cannot believe why it hasn't happened. basically say, why can't the politicians get on with it? the problem is that it is harder than it looks. brexit was never going to be the easiest deal in history and it is turning out to be the hardest deal in history. who are you blaming, gisela? for the first time, certainly in my living memory, we have a balance where the people in parliament spent all of their energy trying to and do... they were picking a fight with the voters, which is always a dangerous position to get into. we have to leave it there. we will carry on! if you want you can hand to the news, travel and weather wherever you are. do you wa nt to weather wherever you are. do you want to do that? i will do that. thank you very much. great to talk to you both. i will do that bit. i will talk over
