good morning. welcome to breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. it has just dawned six o'clock. — gone. our headlines today: labour party officials hammer out their response to calls for a new brexit referendum. members are told it's only an option if there isn't a general election. thousands affected by a contaminated blood scandal in the 70s and 80s get their day in court, as a public inquiry opens into what's been described as the worst treatment disaster in nhs history. tiger woods is back. watch these extraordinary crowds in atlanta rush to see him win his first golf tournament in five years. more university leavers are getting onto our best paid graduate schemes, but businesses

are still struggling to attract students from diverse backgrounds. the bodyguard, one of the most watched dramas of the decade, comes to a high—octane end. what do you think? did it live up to expectations? good morning from trafalgar square in london. a beautiful day with a beautiful sunrise, but the chilly start, foremost, showers with a chilly start in the north—west. more in15 chilly start in the north—west. more in 15 minutes. it's monday the 24th of september. our top story: after five and a half hours of discussions behind closed doors, labour officials have hammered out a brexit motion to be discussed at the party conference in liverpool. it states that, if there isn't a general election, labour should support all options including, campaigning for another referendum. our political correspondent alex forsyth is at the labour conference. morning to you. there is so much

sensitivity about this statement, does it satisfy everyone? well, it seems to at this to a. the central question was this: should labour officially back that campaign on a vote on the brexit deal? had been growing pressure on the leadership from some parts of the party, who really do want another vote. there is another school of thought that was concerned it might alienate all of those voters who supported leave during the original referendum. yesterday, jeremy corbyn reluctantly came to the position that he would let the party members decide. we had this really long meeting as they we re this really long meeting as they were officials got together and they came up with this form of words. that will be voted on later this week at conference, what it effectively means is, if they cannot get a general election, they would look at everything else, including the idea of of the vote and it seemed so far that campaigners on both sides of the argument are satisfied with the copper mines. ——

compromise. this is a clear step forward. it is a vote on brexit, not just the brexit deal, but on brexit itself. believed it did not have a vote and we had to make sure that was concerned and recognise that thatis was concerned and recognise that that is what we think we have done. —— believe that is what we think we have done. — — believe vote. —— the leave vote. it says let's look at the course of things as they develop, but they, the government have ruled out the second vote, theresa may is pressing on with her brexit plan even though leaders don't like it, today she will meet cabinet and you can bet your bottom dollar that will come up in some form and what labour want to do is keep up the pressure. amid all the brexit talk do you think labour's policity proposals on the economy will cut through? they want to push their policy because there were to prove they are

a government in waiting. today they will give announcements on workers, getting dividends on their company. also a push on schools, ending free schools and academy, bringing them under the control of local councils. there will be stuff to pick over, thatis there will be stuff to pick over, that is what they want to promote, but i don't think the brexit discussions have gone awayjust yet. thank you. we'll speak to shadow chancellor john mcdonnell at ten past seven. a public inquiry into a contaminated blood scandal, described as the worst treatment disaster in nhs history, opens today. thousands of patients that had transfusions in the 1970s and 1980s were given blood products from overseas infected with hepatitis c and hiv. at least 2,400 people have died as a result. 0ur health correspondent catherine burns reports. it was supposed to keep them alive, but for many it was a death sentence. thousands of people were infected with hiv and hepatitis c

after getting contaminated blood. it is impossible to know how many people were infected by transfusions during surgery or child birth. and thousands of hemophiliacs received contaminated blood too. there were not enough supplies in the uk so some was imported from america, from paid donors and prison inmates. he just was an incredibly brave man. barbara scott's husband, ronald, had hemophilia and contracted hiv. he died a few days after his 50th birthday. it feels like, you know, you kind of dragged your children up as best you can and that, in many ways, you know, the state is indifferent to the plight of these people. there was a privately funded review in 2009 but it had no official status. in 2015, families dismissed a scottish enquiry as a whitewash. now, after years of campaigning,

this enquiry will be led by a judge and will be able to compel witnesses to give testimony. the key questions are: when did authorities know about the risks? and did they act quickly enough on that information? catherine burns, bbc news. we will be talking about that story throughout the morning. a 20—year—old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder in connection with the disappearance of a student in his first week at university. thomas jones was last seen near the river severn in worcester during the early hours of last wednesday morning. police have said searches are still ongoing and the arrested man is in police custody. the opposition candidate in the presidential election in the maldives, has claimed a surprise victory. the electoral commission has not announced any results yet, but his supporters have been out on the streets of the capital, to urge the sitting president to accept defeat. flash floods and torrential rain in north—eastern tunisia have killed

at least five people. reinforcements from the emergency services and the army have been drafted in after saturday's storm brought six months worth of rainfall. water levels have started to receed but telephone networks are still largely out of service. an international mission is underway to rescue an around—the—world sailor, who is seriously injured and stranded in the middle of the indian ocean. abhilash tomy, an indian national, suffered a back injury when his vessel was damaged during a violent storm. australia, india and france are all sending vessels to help. 0ur correspondent hywel griffith has more. confident and capable, this was abhilash tomy at the beginning of a 30,000 mile race around the world. the indian naval officer set off

from france on july the indian naval officer set off from france onjuly one, sailing down around the western coast of africa for heading into the indian 0cean. there, with his yacht in third place, he hit 45 foot waves, which rolled his vessel 300 60 degrees and broke his master. —— 360 degrees. he sent a distress message saying... he is now confined to his bunk. and aircraft has spotted his yacht nearly 2000 miles off the coast of australia. the race is now on to reach. the boat is a replica of the first yacht to be sailed around the world single—handedly 50 yea rs around the world single—handedly 50 years ago by sir robin knox—johnston. the first to reach and maybe another competitor, gregor mcguckin, who spoke was also damaged in the storm. a french naval ship is on the way to bring him to safety. amazing story. in the age of which

we live, social media obsession. radio one breakfast show host greg james has announced he's married his partner bella mackie seven months after she proposed. isn't that nice? sharing these pictures of the day on twitter, the presenter described it as "the most incredible day of my life". congratulations to them both. well done. it is nine minutes past six. it is. the papers all over the place. there is one whopping sports story. i know you are excited, how many times have i sat on the sofa and said is tiger woods about to do it? guess what, it has happened! you are not as excited as i thought you were. i stayed up late enjoying the excitement. did you watch david first? i did. don't worry, if you

haven't seen the bodyguard yet, if we are going to discuss it at any point... we will put spoiler alert! no spoiler alert here. just over a year ago, tiger woods was outside the top 1,000 in golf‘s world rankings, but with just days until the ryder cup he's now a winner again. just look at the crowds that rushed to the 18th to see him win his first title in five years at the season—ending tour championship in atlanta. woods won by two shots and looks back to his best after years of personal problems and back injuries. it's four successive wins in the premier league for arsenal. alexandre lacazette put them on the way to a 2—0 win over everton. chelsea failed to win for the first time this season. lukas fabianski's face—saving stopped them beating west ham. it finished goalless at the london stadium. and celtic are down to sixth in the scottish premiership, after they were beaten 2—1 by kilmarnock.

an injury time winner from stuart findlay sent them to their second defeat of the season. rangers are up to second after a 5—1 win over stjohnstone. you know things in a football match i going really well when the camera sta rts i going really well when the camera starts wobbling. it is going crazy because the crowd are leaping up and down. the tiger woods thing, there is an interesting debate to be quite a few people voicing this. i read one sportsperson saying yesterday that we know a way from dolphy is not particularly a nice person, and yet there are millions of people celebrating his success. actually, not talking about, for example, justin rose, won the fedex cup.|j stood next to him while tiger was making his speech, looking very humble. some people are getting annoyed because he celebrated in

such a way because of his past. annoyed because he celebrated in such a way because of his pastm is interesting watching the american coverage, i have watched a little bit of the states government, there we re bit of the states government, there were grown men crying. commentators getting emotional. there is a little bit, ifind ita getting emotional. there is a little bit, ifind it a little bit uncomfortable. i took a straw poll in the office here this morning and everybody is delighted to see him back to his best. in pure we sporting terms, it is a great story. —— purely. you are right, he is not particularly liked. there was a story about getting people back into golf, normally in that tournament over the weekend, there is hardly anybody there. look at the crowd. running towards him, there is such a lot of love for him. i think people forgive and forget, don't they? lot of love for him. i think people forgive and forget, don't they7m does get up the nose of others. forgive and forget, don't they7m does get up the nose of otherslj tell does get up the nose of others.” tell you what, it is lovely to have somebody on this programme! looking

lovely! it is lovely to see everyone again. thank you, good morning. this morning i am in trafalgar square, beautiful sunrise about to happen, but it is a chilly start. the temperature in london is around five celsius, but widely across southern england and wales we are looking at pictures to or three, in northern england, one or two. pictures to or three, in northern england, one ortwo. a pictures to or three, in northern england, one or two. a shock to the system. we are looking at a chilly start of the day, for most of us it will be dry, sunny and warm, but there are showers in the forecast, primarily across western scotland, parts of northern ireland, northern england, possibly into north wales. with showers, not all of us will see one. high pressure is firmly in charge and as you can see in the charts, coming infrom charge and as you can see in the charts, coming in from the west it is continuing to build through the day at a distinct lack of isobars for many shows it will not be breezy, but a bit more of a breeze across the north. first thing this

morning, after the chilly start, some patchy mist and fog to get rid of quite readily, a dry start and a fair bit of sunshine. the exception to that across parts of north—western scotland, northern ireland, it northern england later and northwest wales later. nothing to significant. it is not particularly warm, despite the fact that we are going to see some sunshine. temperature is widely between 12 and i6 celsius. through this evening and overnight, there will still be some clear skies around. we will also see some shower, missed and fog patches and we have got a weather front on the outside of the area of high pressure and that is producing showers. again, turning heady, producing rain by the end of the night across lewis and harris, through western scotland and harris, through western scotland and eventually up in towards 0rkney in shetland as well. it will be a chilly night, temperatures falling for a touch of frost. into tomorrow,

we start off with that rain, some of it not getting over towards eastern scotland, largely dry. temperatures up scotland, largely dry. temperatures upa scotland, largely dry. temperatures up a touch on what we are looking at today, up to maybe around 17, possibly for some, 19. into wednesday, the northern half of the country will be fairly cloudy with splashes of rain at times, the southern half seeing a bit more sunshine and temperatures again around about 19, maybe 20. it is on thursday some parts of the south could get up as high as 23. that is more like it. thank you very much carol, thank you very much indeed. i was mid rant about the bodyguard, which i will not say on air to anybody. you watched it? yes. yes. at the body language! i sent a group text last night at 830 to check if everybody staying up? do you realise

it is an hour and a half's i know! it was very late going to bed last night, i couldn't sleep at all.” had to make screens going on. have you had any sleep? halep. he always perky. let's take a look at today's papers. chat about the bodyguard on the sun's front page. a sweet picture of prince george, who was page boy over the weekend, and what it calls a secret number 10 plan to invite the german president to the cenotaph for the 100th anniversary of world war one. the guardian uncovers what it calls startling figures showing that less than a third of prosecutions against men aged 18 to 2a result in convictions. a demonstrator poses with a beatles statue in liverpool ahead of the labour conference. that takes place this week. the times says the home secretary has provoked anger in the conservative party by proposing that eu citizens enjoy limitless access to the uk for more than two years after a no—deal brexit. it looks ahead to the conference with plans to give workers shares, and a photo of luciana berger being escorted by a police officer

as she left an anti—semitism event yesterday. and the telegraph reports that the cabinet is backing a canada brexit deal. and fashion noir with a frill. eva herzigova on the catwalk in milan as part of a cast of supermodels and actresses. a rather impressive frock. absolutely. sean, do you want to start first? petrol policies later, but in the guardian, an interesting story with a nice picture of an aeroplane, airlines' demand for oil will offset the demand for electric cars in the next five years. people thinking because of the increase in electric cars around the world, we won't be using as much petrol and diesel and therefore we won't be needing as much oil, airlines are going to increase their number of

flights over the next five years means that will make up the difference. environmentalists would be happy. and on computer games, interesting, anyone who knows kids playing fortnite or anything like that, huge business at the moment, people paying a lot of money... sally is nodding her head. big issue in the nugent household. coca leaves. this isn't your vr headset stuff or anything like that —— totally. you will be wearing sweat patches so the game can detect any unconscious motion or changes you might have an reflect them the character you're playing — — unconscious emotion. if you're getting a bit nervous, your character might get nervous. if you're getting a bit to read perhaps... that is really bizarre. it is on its way! —— teary.

perhaps... that is really bizarre. it is on its way! -- teary. next level vr! what have you got?l it is on its way! -- teary. next level vr! what have you got? a bit more tiger, i know we've already talked about him, the mail have done well because of the time difference to get him on the back page. do you like what they have done? it's all been about his back for several yea rs. two vertebrae been about his back for several years. two vertebrae fused together with his surgery. he was joking years. two vertebrae fused together with his surgery. he wasjoking in his interview after he won saying, one of the commentators asked a question about where he would go next, he said you do realise i can't run any more, i next, he said you do realise i can't run any more, i can next, he said you do realise i can't run any more, i can barely walk. he'sjoking but run any more, i can barely walk. he's joking but he's come run any more, i can barely walk. he'sjoking but he's come back run any more, i can barely walk. he's joking but he's come back from a huge difficult physical injury and many years of rehab and several operations. but looking ahead, you know what i want, a little bit of help, let's look ahead, ian poulter talking about the ryder cup, just a few days away now. i love this picture of him, the old bouldering

eyes. he says the ryder cup for him is the best thing about golf. he loves the rivalry and the tension and the noise. he says it simply makes him play better. if you want to get into golf, it is a good introduction. my mum hates golf, i've got her to watch the ryder cup. how did you get to love it so much? you don't want to do what your pa rents you don't want to do what your parents do... apart from my own children! she watched it for a whole day and by the end she was whooping and hollering. they go, ryder cup in and hollering. they go, ryder cup in a few days. a story from the daily telegraph, about the london stone, it is said to ensure the safety of the city... i love the way brexit is written into every story! the london stone has been moved away, it will be moved back, they're hoping it may solve any post—brexit setbacks. be moved back, they're hoping it may solve any post—brexit setbacksm that the one that's meant to be

solve any post—brexit setbacksm that the one that‘s meant to be ex— calibre? beleaguered. according to legend... —— very good. when it got moved back, the cuban missile crisis was solved shortly afterwards. i don't know. all this time and all we needed to do was move the london stone! so they say! exactly. exactly. very important. we have a tree on later... a very old tree. i just imagine you are interviewing a tree! you can imagine it, that's the thing. it's got a hole in the middle. i'm not going to explain everything but later on we will be talking about trees if you like trees. 0ne talking about trees if you like trees. one thing to ask you about the bodyguard, i'm not going to give anything away, but it involves quite anything away, but it involves quite a bit of investment, 6.5 hours of yourtime, a bit of investment, 6.5 hours of

your time, were you happy with the resolution, sean? i was, it brought me round, wondered how they were going to make it... you want it slightly believable. you know what, that will do me, i thought. sally? the credits rolled andl thought. sally? the credits rolled and i thought, what? i'm still not sure. there's one particular thing you're still not happy about. we shall have a look at this later. we will be speaking to ash tandon, who played a key member of the final episode later on. a university that's seen an increase in student suicides is asking freshers give their consent for staff to contact a family member on their behalf, if they think they're struggling with mental health issues. it follows a campaign by the father of bristol university student ben murray, who took his own life in may this year. fiona lamdin reports. then murray was in his first year at

bristol university, but after missing exams, he was thrown off his course, but his parents had no idea. we had a very nice lunch. he didn't eat that much. i told him that i loved him, kissed him and then said goodbye. that was the last time i saw him. a few hours later, ben took his life. ben's dad, james, is now calling for a relaxation of the data protection laws that do the universities from alerting parents that their child has a serious mental health problem. you've got ten weeks where you're going from being treated as a child in effect at school, being looked after in a very safe environment, to going to university with just a ten week break where you're suddenly an adult and expected to cope with financial pressures , and expected to cope with financial pressures, new academic pressures, pressures, new academic pressures, pressures of being in a new community and settling in. and so

for the first time, students starting here at bristol can give their consent, allowing the university to contact an adult if faced to do and becomes physically or mentally. yeah, i'd be really happy to sign it. it's very hard when you're in that place to be able to talk to someone, so do have a third party be able to do that for you makes the process a lot easier. obviously at its a choice to sign the form, i wouldn't sign it because we're all at university, we're all 18, we've all made the decision to be here. if a doctor can't get consent to tell my parents, the university shouldn't either. in the last 18 months, 11 students have taken their lives at bristol university. 0thers taken their lives at bristol university. others like psychology student laura say they've considered it. at the of the first year, you think, my god, i've already spent £9,000 on this course, £6,000 on accommodation, i'm already £15,000 deep. that's terrifying, i can't

drop out now but i can't carry on like this. the idea of an out is very appealing unfortunately. what saved you do you think? couldn't do it to my parents. it's appealing personally, but to leave people behind... no. just couldn't have done it. and that's why this university is investing millions into its mental health service. as well as its new consent policy, there's three new student centre is open 2a hours a day, and over 50 new staff keeping a watch out for those who are struggling. to have a student death from any cause is a real tragedy, to have a number in quick succession really cares at the very ha rd of quick succession really cares at the very hard of our institution and our mantra now is the mental health is everybody‘s business at our university. the number of first year stu d e nts university. the number of first year students arriving at university with a mental health condition is now five times what it was ten years

ago. this is clearly notjust a bristol problem but a national one. and what would ben make of what you're now doing? ben was a very sensitive boy, and he would like to see other people spared this pain. and i'm sure that he'd be happy that i'm behind this campaign, but! he'd be happy that i'm behind this campaign, but i think this campaign is really ben's campaign. i know so many people will go to university and have been in the last few weeks and weeks to come. good luck to everyone. that was james murrey speaking to fiona lamdin. if you're feeling emotionally distressed and would like details of organisations which offer advice and support. go online to bbc.co.uk/actionline. you're watching breakfast from bbc news. still to come this morning: carol will bring us the weather with a view from this beautiful central london rooftop. ican give

i can give you a sneak preview, it is chilly out! did you know that nelsons column is made of dartmoor granite? i probably knew that but have forgotten! we will talk to our golf correspondent about tiger woods, ian carter, in a few moments. see you then. good morning, i'm asad ahmad. police say there's no link to terrorism after a man was arrested at the visitors' entrance to buckingham palace yesterday. the 38—year—old was stopped by security staff as he went through security scanners. parts of the building are currently open to the public while the queen is at balmoral castle in scotland. a londoner who set up a company four years ago out of her frustration for not being able to find tights to match her skin tone says it was social media that allowed her to make an impact so quickly. ade hussain provides nude lingerie and hosiery for different skin tones. she started by posting photos on instagram,

which went from having 50 followers to 20,000 injust a month. this is why she did it. i could never find i could neverfind simple things like tights that were my skin tone, and having something so simple, like mood, not represent you can feel very exclusive, almost like, you know, you're an afterthought —— nude. a lack of rooftops in central london which can take technology used for wifi connectivity is the reason why lamposts are to be used instead. westminster council is spending millions of pounds to improve connections. trafalgar square will get the equipment installed in its lamposts in a few weeks. peckham has been named as the uk's coolest place to live in a time out poll. and not only that, the area in south london is ranked 11th in the world for what's described as its bohemian character. that puts it ahead of new york's west village and amsterdam's noord district. let's have a look at the travel situation now.

a good service on all lines now... the victoria line had problems a short time ago, but that's all cleared up, so that's good news. delays building on the northbound approach to the blackwall tunnel. and in 0rpington, crofton lane is closed due to a sinkhole near the railway bridge. let's have a check on the weather now with elizabeth. hello, good morning. yesterday we saw half an inch of rain for many spots, but the dave and for the rest of the week it's going to feel very different. staying dry with lots of blue sky and sun tried to come but also some rather chilly nights. a rather cold start to the new working week, temperatures in low to mid single figures. a few shallow mist patches around as well, they won't last for too long, lots of blue sky and sunshine for much of the rest of the date. cloud free for many areas, bit of cloud bubbling up to the

north—west through the afternoon. a like north—westerly breeze but temperatures not doing too well, highs of 1a or 15. through this evening and overnight, very little changes. it is going to stay dry. we'll see again lots of clear skies around and temperatures in some rural spots could drop low enough to get a touch of frost perhaps on the grass into tomorrow morning, so another rather cold start tomorrow. lots more sunshine tomorrow, to come, staying dry and temperatures start to rise as we head through the week, perhaps 22 celsius by thursday. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. it is exactly 6:30am. thanks for being with us this morning. we'll bring you all the latest news and sport in a moment, but also on breakfast this morning: we'll find out how scientists from cambridge are using trees that died thousands of years ago to predict the impact climate change might have in the future.

also this morning, we'll meet peter williams, the man who's about to set off on an epicjourney in memory of his daughter ellie, who lost her life to brain cancer aged seven. he'll ride her cherished pink bike for over 200 miles from bristol to lands end. and bodyguard fans listen up, actor ash tandon who plays dci deepak sharma in the series will be here for a full debrief of last nights' finale just after 8:30. just to reiterate, we will alert you before we start the conversation. good morning. here's a summary of today's main stories from bbc news. after five and a half hours of discussions behind closed doors, labour officials have hammered out a brexit motion to be discussed at the party conference in liverpool. it will propose that, if there isn't a general election, labour should support all options, including campaigning for another referendum on eu membership. it would come into play

if the government fails to pass their own much—contested brexit plan through parliament. we'll speak to shadow chancellor john mcdonnell at ten past seven. a public inquiry into a contaminated blood scandal, described as the worst treatment disaster in nhs history, opens today. thousands of patients that had transfusions in the 1970s and 1980s were given blood products from overseas infected with hepatitis c and hiv. at least 2,400 people have died as a result. a 20—year—old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder, in connection with the disappearance of a student in his first week at university. thomas jones was last seen near the river severn in worcester during the early hours of last wednesday morning. police have said searches are still ongoing and the arrested man is in police custody. the opposition candidate in the presidential election in the maldives, has claimed a surprise victory. the electoral commission has not

announced any results yet, but his supporters have been out on the streets of the capital, to urge the sitting president to accept defeat. flash floods and torrential rain in north—eastern tunisia have killed at least five people. reinforcements from the emergency services and the army have been drafted in after saturday's storm brought six months worth of rainfall. water levels have started to receed but telephone networks are still largely out of service. an international mission is underway to rescue an around—the—world sailor, who is seriously injured and stranded in the middle of the indian ocean. abhilash tomy, an indian national, suffered a back injury when his vessel was damaged during a violent storm. it is hoped that a french vessel

could reach him later today. radio one breakfast show host greg james has announced he's married his partner bella mackie seven months after she proposed. sharing these pictures of the day on twitter, the presenter described it as "the most incredible day of my life". he managed to keep it a bit of a secret as well. it is quite difficult to do today. very clever. congratulations to him and ella and everybody there that they. —— bella. and congratulations to tiger woods. he won't be keeping this one secret. 0ne he won't be keeping this one secret. one of the greatest comebacks in sport, certainly in gulf. —— golf. we start with possibly one of the greatest sporting comebacks of all time. tiger woods has won his first title in five years, the season ending pga

tour championship. look at those crowds, they still absolutely look at those crowds, they still a bsolutely love look at those crowds, they still absolutely love him, don't they? he was out of the top 1000 injuly last year after a number of personal problems and a long—term back injury. he takes this form into the ryder cup next week. that is on friday. just to be able to compete and play again this year, that is a hell of a comeback. as i said, some of the people are very close to me, they have seen what i have gone through. i was alluding to some of the players i have seen and gone through, they know how hard it was just to get back to playing golf again. let's speak to our golf correspondent iain carter, who's in paris ahead of the ryder cup. morning to you, it is lovely to see you there. give us a little bit of context, it you could. how big of a

comeback is this for tiger woods?m is huge, no doubt about that. you are absolutely right, up there with any sporting comeback that you can think of. in golfing terms it is alongside ben hogan, who came back from life changing injuries. but from life changing injuries. but from his perspective, 1786 days ago was the last time he tasted victory on the pga tour, back in 2013. since then, multiple back injuries, the point at which he could barely move, he was unable to play with his children and it needed a back fusion, which was essentially a experimental procedure because it hadn't been used for someone who was an active athlete. it clearly worked. really, throughout this golfing season he has gotten stronger and stronger. challenged for the open championship injuly, the pj in august and now he has won

the pj in august and now he has won the season finale. watching the pictures we were seeing a moment ago, seeing the crowds run towards him. has everybody forgiven him for his very well—publicised demeanour is? -- his very well—publicised demeanour is? —— misdemeanours? his very well—publicised demeanour is? -- misdemeanours? it is a story not just only recovery, is? -- misdemeanours? it is a story notjust only recovery, but also redemption. it was 2009 where he suffered that epic fall from grace and the stories of infidelity that led to his divorce, came through. then just over led to his divorce, came through. thenjust over a year ago led to his divorce, came through. then just over a year ago he was convicted of reckless driving after being found unconscious at the wheel, that was put down to a cocktail of painkillers that he was taking as a result of the back surgery. taking as a result of the back surgery. so it has been a huge comeback, notjust in golfing terms, but also through his life and the setbacks that he has come through there. that has added to the story. as you say, now we are in france ahead of the ryder cup and it gives ahead of the ryder cup and it gives

a massive injection to that event this week. we have got to say a word aboutjustin this week. we have got to say a word about justin rose, fedex this week. we have got to say a word aboutjustin rose, fedex champion world number one, in a pretty good place right now. when the rankings come out today he will be nudged down to number two because dustin johnson hasjust, by the narrowest of margins, gone back to the top of the rankings. nonetheless, another very high finish for rose. he had to birdie the last hole to win the fedex cup, the season—long competition that came to its outback championship, and with that goes that bumper cheque of $10 million. ata that bumper cheque of $10 million. at a pinky is too worried about being nudged off the top four this week, at least. —— i don't think he is. you are in paris for the ryder cup, how much of a buzz is there? you do since it. it is not actually palpable at this stage, it is still dark, the gates will be thrown open.

as today continues, both captains will arrive here for their news conferences and we know that tiger woods will be top of the agenda for those. there is a massive sense of anticipation about this ryder cup. officially, this will be the first ever ryder cup in which each of the top—10 players in the world be competing. they are either american or european, two very strong teams and woods playing his first ryder cup since 2012 adds a substantial ex— factor. —— x—factor. lovely to talk to you. the timing of thatis lovely to talk to you. the timing of that is interesting. tiger woods at the ryder cup in the past hasn't ingrate, but what he has gone through the last few days, going into next week, he could be the mascot. you know howl said into next week, he could be the mascot. you know how i said the ryder cup is a great way of getting into gulf. listened to it on radio 5 live, it is an amazing listener.

gulf shouldn't work on the radio but it does. i agree. gulf shouldn't work on the radio but it does. iagree. it is gulf shouldn't work on the radio but it does. i agree. it is brilliant. —— golf. it does. i agree. it is brilliant. -- golf. the commentary is fabulous. good luck to ian and his colleagues are. “— good luck to ian and his colleagues are. —— is colleagues. —— his colleagues. well, it's early stages in the scottish premiership but the signs are that we could be in for the most open race for the title in years. that's because celtic suffered defeat for the second time in their opening six games. they conceded in the last minute to lose 2—1 at kilmarnock, and are six points off hearts, who are top. it's celtic‘s worst start to a season in 20 years. should celtic fans be alarmed about the way results of dawn? —— have dawn? —— have gone? i think they should. when you are a huge club like celtic, the demand is to win. in the last couple of years we have done that, done really well and played in a style that is synonymous with the club. so it hasn't been the same. but we have to

work to make it at a. hasn't been the same. but we have to work to make it ata. ——. —— better. steven gerrard's rangers are now above celtic and up to second in the league after thrashing stjohnston 5—1 at ibrox. gerrard said it's the best football he's seen from his side since taking over. arsenal made it five wins in a row in all competitions with a 2—0 premier league victory over everton at the emirates. alexandre lacazette's brilliant opening goal, but them in front after arsenal keeper petr cech had made a number of saves to keep them in it. then the gunners other big money striker pierre emerick aubameyang made it 2—0, but replays showed he was well offside. and it was a frustrating goalless london derby at west ham. chelsea failed to score for the first time this season. they'd have been ahead in the second half if it wasn't for the hammers' keeper fabianski's face, who took one for the team. and get ready to wince again, west ham's yarmalenko also had a great opportunity to score. has this been the miss of the season so far?

in the womens super league, leaders arsenal twice came from behind to beat west ham 4—3, thanks to a hat—trick from danielle van de donk, to maintain their unbeaten start to the season. substitute rinsola babajide scored the only goal of the game —— liverpool clinched a win over brighton in their first game since the resignation of manager neil redfearn. elsewhere, everton drew 0—0 against chelsea and manchester city drew 2—2 with bristol city. going to be chatting a bit more about tiger woods. later on. so far i have read every single review of the bodyguard. go on. your theory, you have a particular theory. we discussed this, not on the programme, those. i am aware that people will be sitting through a day of work saying i will watch it tonight. rural and it. of work saying i will watch it tonight. ruraland it. we of work saying i will watch it tonight. rural and it. we will give you a very significant warning. we all know tree rings can be

counted to work out the age of a tree, but could they also reveal what the weather was like way back in history? cambridge scientists are now using tree samples from more than 1,000 years ago to find out how the climate has changed. science correspondent richard westcott has more. this lock in the scottish highlands is hiding clues that could help us to predict the impact of climate change. scientists are searching for them under the water. swimming around the hour was, it is tough, hands on, fieldwork. just take it slow at the beginning. they are winching out trees that lived and died hundreds, even thousands of yea rs died hundreds, even thousands of years ago, at the water has preserved them. this could have been in the lock for six, 700 years?

hopefully this was here and died 600 yea rs hopefully this was here and died 600 years ago, we don't have many rings it has, but we will take it back. by studying their rings, you get a written, annual diary of the summer climate going way back in time. so here, you have wide rings, it gets thin and then wired, thin and wide to beat represents that this tree was growing quicker and a slower. we have the material for scotland was growing quicker and a slower. we have the materialfor scotland in ten kilometres of you going back 8000 years. we have a lot of gaps at the moment, continuous back 900 yea rs, the moment, continuous back 900 yea rs , we the moment, continuous back 900 yea rs, we have the moment, continuous back 900 years, we have an elegance century gap, which is annoying. can have quite a lot of material for the first millennium. the width can give clues to capita, rainfall and the surprising things are. avalanches are. snow avalanches, earthquakes, tsunamis, if they come out and wipe out all the trees. so one could be quite creative in aspects of

incremental change by studying trees. in a new lab at cambridge university, they are using trees from around the world to create the longest, continuous, tree ring based climate diary. this is the year 1816, a year without a summer in large parts of europe, it is following a major tropical volcanic eruption. is resulting in a narrow ring, just two cells on the entire growing season that was most likely very cold and also very wet. using samples from living trees, mediaeval churches, pete boggs, building sites and lakes, they are already unearthing new, dramatic events. we have recently discovered the late ice age that period starting precisely in the year 536, following a cluster of chemical eruptions that triggered a period of roughly 100,

120 years. here is the evidence of. a tree ring from 536a.d, a larger cells are frost damage from a dramatic drop in temperature. the wind down the middle is more frost damage, but this time from 1258, when another equatorial volcanic eruption froze europe. these thin rings show plummeting scottish temperatures that caused a famine in the 16 90s. but what about boiling hot 2018? weakened that appear that the ring should be relatively wide, a good, productive warm years. —— we can bet that the. by reconstructing the science of the past, scientists can work out if the warmth in recent yea rs can work out if the warmth in recent years is truly unusual. fascinating, isn't it? and we have the sample of scottish pine you saw in that report here in the studio. cambridge scientists say it dates from around 985 ad and died and fell into the lake in the cairngorms around 12—70 ad. things that happened in the time

that this tree was about! the real macbeth killed king duncan and became king. the battle of hastings took place in 1066, the magna carta was signed in 1215. can you smell that? doesn't smell great. it's been preserved in something. as they were explaining, it's a bit like reading a book. all these secrets. it's a bit like when you put disinfectant under the lid of the toilet. that's what it smells like this morning. a proper honker but it looks incredibly impressive. it is very weighty. i'm fine. so one of us has to clean our hands! she's always thinking! do you want to know what carol is doing? carol is in central london with the weather this morning. a beautiful sunrise but pretty chilly? good morning. it is, it is freezing

this morning. feels like it anyway! i'm overlooking trafalgar square, a fabulous view and you can see nelson's column. we spoke... it was built to commemorate abril nelson who died in the battle of trafalgar in 1805 -- who died in the battle of trafalgar in1805 —— admiral who died in the battle of trafalgar in 1805 —— admiral nelson. it didn't go in 1805 —— admiral nelson. it didn't 9° up in 1805 —— admiral nelson. it didn't go up untilaround in 1805 —— admiral nelson. it didn't go up until around a0 years later. he had a chip on this shoulder because he was struck by lightning not long after the correction of the monument. colder day, not just not long after the correction of the monument. colder day, notjust in london, where it's around five, but across london, where it's around five, but a cross m ost london, where it's around five, but across most of the uk. in scotland and northern ireland, temperatures 1- and northern ireland, temperatures 1— two —— called today. for the rest of england and wales, 2—a —— called today. dry, not one but a few showers in the forecast. —— called

today. high pressure is firmly in charge of our weather. building in from the west. not much in the way of isobars, but a breeze in the north of the country and it's around the outside of the high pressure we are seeing showers. this morning, also shallow mist and fog around clearing rapidly. for most, it will be dry and sunny as well. a wee bit more cloud building through the day with the showers across the north—west of the uk in the areas i mentioned. temperatures today ranging from about ten in the north to highs of 16 in the south. as we go through this evening and overnight, under clear skies, temperatures will drop like a rock. another cold night with an air frost and we will see mooring coming our way through the night across lewis and harris, in through western scotla nd and harris, in through western scotland and some of that getting up into 0rkney and shetland as well. temperature—wise, two in norwich but the temperatures will be fairly low, except for where we have the cloud

and rain in north—west scotland, where we are looking at temperatures that bit higher. tomorrow we start with all the rain. the heaviest will be across western scotland and. parts of eastern scotland staying dry, and for much of the rest of the uk, a dry day and a sunny one with a bit more cloud developing through the course of the day. temperatures getting up to around 17. then on wednesday, the northern half of the country, scotland, northern ireland and northern england, a bit more cloud and some spots of rain, nothing too heavy. for the rest of england and wales, drier and sunny. temperatures by then getting up to about 20. if you like it that we bit warmer, across southern england on thursday, some parts, especially in the south—east, could hit 23 but cold at night. it's the time of year where we have clear skies by day giving sunshine, and temperatures drop quickly at night. you have your

coat out, i got mine out on the weekend and. autumn is here! a beautiful view this morning. we will be seeing carol through the morning. there's been a big increase in graduate recruitment over the past year, but are businesses getting better at making their workplaces more diverse? sean is taking a look. good morning. starts at the beginning if you want to do that, graduate recruitment and recruitment at that level, people's first job graduate recruitment and recruitment at that level, people's firstjob is very important for everybody. morning, folks! people at uni and back at university this month. the answer from this report is not really. it's done by the institute of student employers. they represent the top graduate recruiters in the country. despite an increase in university leavers getting on grad schemes, there are still issues about how diverse those students are, with women, disabled people, and people who went to state school all underrepresented on these programmes laura—jane rawlings is ceo at youth employment uk, which helps 16 to 2a years olds into employment. good morning. good morning. looking

at the report this morning about graduate recruitment, these are quite well paid high level graduates keynes we are talking about, why is it after all this talk year after year, they're still not able to make a dent on the diversity issues they're having in their workplace? —— graduate schemes. they're having in their workplace? -- graduate schemes. it's a great question and it's great to see greater would employment increasing, but we're seeing lots of employees doing the same methods, and if you keep doing the same thing, you get the same results. employers have to widen their net and rethink the way they approach and engage those young people they want representing their business. this report says there's been an increase in the number of apprentices these big businesses are bringing on, does going down the apprenticeship route mean they have apprenticeship route mean they have a wider range of people that they end up recruiting? it's good news at

the apprenticeship level, there's a levy, a new tax on our businesses, increasing the number of apprentices businesses want to take on so that's a good news story. slowly we will see a shift where there will be two strong roots for people to get into employment, apprenticeship and graduate. we still need to fix the supply and demand. these are quite big businesses based in the city of london, law firms, accountancy firms, but looking at graduates on the whole, if you're going back to you knee this month and you might think, what am i going to do when i leave ? think, what am i going to do when i leave? —— university. is that degree worthwhile and will it give you a betterjob than if you didn't go to university? it's a tough question because it depends on the university, the degree, the individual and the career they want so it has to be an individual choice. what we have to ensure it is the degrees we offer students offer value for money. we have just

finished a youth voice census which was a temperature check for young people. 0ut was a temperature check for young people. out of that, 70% of graduates told us they won't get in contact with employers at university. not dealing with a business at all? no. should be university be doing more? if someone is back at university this month, should they be saying to their university, put me in touch with these businesses? absolutely, when an employer is looking for applicants, they will look at the quality of their education but the work experience, things they've been involved in, in addition to their education. young people have to start demanding from their courses better value for money, better engagement with employers and better networks. looking at young people from disadvantaged backgrounds, they're from disadvantaged backgrounds, they‘ re less from disadvantaged backgrounds, they're less likely to have these networks of businesses from family

members. universities have to step in and provide that wider support. youth employment uk, thank you very much. youth employment uk —— laura—jane much. youth employment uk —— laura —jane from youth much. youth employment uk —— laura—jane from youth employment uk. i will be talking about petrol rises later as well. always gets people going on a monday morning! have a peek? so many questions. thank you, sean. —— have they peaked? we aren't going to give anything away about the bodyguard, but so many people have told us this morning how much they've enjoyed it. 0ne says what a series, outstanding work by everyone involved. claire said outstanding, superb cast performance, gripping storyline, my perfect drama. jean says far—fetched, maybe, but goodness me, i've never held my breath for so long, enjoyed every nailbiting minute. louise remains can convinced of that... minute. louise remains can convinced of that. .. i don't want you to say.

it happened early in the series, you thinkjulie montague is coming back. i have no inside information. suurez two is not even written at this stage —— series two. two is not even written at this stage -- series two. she played a fictional character. labour party members discussed for over five hours last night this resolution. if we can't get a general election, it must support all options, including campaigning fora must support all options, including campaigning for a public vote. that will be voted for at conference this week. we will speak tojohn mcdonnell about that and a few other policies he will announce later today. that's coming up shortly. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london news, i'm asad ahmad. a man arrested at buckingham palace on suspicion of possessing a taser

has been released with no further action after it turned out to be pa rt action after it turned out to be part of a keyring. the 38—year—old, who is visiting london from the netherlands, was detained yesterday lunchtime but after questioning, scotland yard said the device was low powered and it was a genuine error which posed no threat. a londoner who set up a company four years ago out of her frustration for not being able to find tights to match her skin tone says it was social media that allowed her to make an impact so quickly. ade hussain provides nude lingerie and hosiery for different skin tones. she started by posting photos on instagram, which went from having 50 followers to 20,000 injust a month. this is why she did it. i could neverfind simple things like tights that were my skin tone, and having something so simple, like nude, not represent you can feel very exclusive, almost like, you know, you're an afterthought. a lack of rooftops in central london which can take technology used for wifi connectivity is the reason why lamposts are to be used instead.

westminster council is spending millions of pounds to improve connections. trafalgar square will get the equipment installed in its lamposts in a few weeks. peckham has been named as the uk's coolest place to live in a time out poll. and not only that, the area in south london is ranked 11th in the world for what's described as its bohemian character. that puts it ahead of new york's west village and amsterdam's noord district. let's have a look at the travel situation now. the bakerloo line has minor delays due to a signal system failure. elsewhere it is a good service. delays building on the northbound approach to the blackwall tunnel. and in 0rpington, crofton lane is closed due to a sinkhole near the railway bridge. let's have a check on the weather now with elizabeth. hello, good morning. yesterday, we saw half an inch of rain for many spots,

but today and for the rest of the week, it's going to feel very different. staying dry with lots of blue sky and sunshine to come, but also some rather chilly nights. a rather cold start to the new working week, temperatures in low to mid single figures. a few shallow mist patches around as well, they won't last for too long, there'll be lots of blue sky and sunshine for much of the rest of the day. staying mostly cloud—free for many areas, bit of cloud bubbling up to the north—west through the afternoon. a light north—westerly breeze but temperatures not doing too well, only highs of 1a or 15 degrees celsius. through this evening and overnight, very little changes. it is going to stay dry. we'll see again lots of clear skies around, and temperatures in some rural spots could drop low enough to get a touch of frost perhaps on the grass into tomorrow morning, so it's another rather cold start to the day tomorrow. there'll be lots more sunshine tomorrow, to come, staying dry and temperatures start to rise as we head through the week, perhaps 22 celsius by thursday.

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. is the. —— it is seven o'clock. 0ur headlines today: labour party officials hammer out their response to calls for a new brexit referendum. members are told its only an option if there isn't a general election. thousands affected by a contaminated blood scandal in the 70s and 80s get their day in court, as a public inquiry opens into what's been described as the worst treatment disaster in nhs history. tiger woods is back. these extraordinary crowds in atlanta rushed to see him win his first golf tournament in five years. the cost of petrol has been rising for 12 weeks in a row, the aa thinks it is time for a fall.

the bodyguard, one of the most watched dramas of the decade, comes to a high—octane end. but did it live up to expectations? good morning from central london where it is actually start to the days. for many of us, it will be dry and sunny, not particularly warm, with a few showers across the north and west of scotland, northern ireland, north—west england and north—west wales. more in 15 minutes. good morning. it's monday the 2ath of september. our top story: after five and a half hours of discussions behind closed doors, labour officials have hammered out a brexit motion to be discussed at the party conference in liverpool. it states that, if there isn't a general election, labour should support all options including, campaigning for another referendum. 0ur political correspondent alex forsyth is at the labour conference. so many hours talking about this.

have they managed to please everyone? it seems so far the compromise they have managed to get out has been well accepted across the border. the question was whether labour should officially backed the campaign that is going on for another vote on the terms of the brexit deal. there was a movement in the party that really wanted that, but there was some worried that that could alienate labour supporters who wa nted could alienate labour supporters who wanted to leave the eu. jeremy corbyn, reluctant to go down that route, said it is up to the members. yesterday we had these party officials, they got together and came up with this form of words and that will be voted on at the conference later on this week. so far, it seems that campaigners on both sides of the debate are pretty happy with the compromise. this is a clear step forward. this is a clear commitment to the public vote on brexit, notjust on commitment to the public vote on brexit, not just on the terms of brexit, not just on the terms of brexit, on brexit in general on the table. the important point was that

the leaders did not have a voice and we had to make sure that that was heard and recognised. and that is what we think we have done. what this doesn't really do, is tied the party leaders hands or bind them too much at all. 0rchids as is that if there isn't a general election, labour will look at all of the options on the table and that could mean campaignfora options on the table and that could mean campaign for a public vote. the government ruled out the vote altogether, another election, but theresa may is still under pressure over her brexit plans. she is going to meet her cabinet later today and it isn't officially meant to be about brexit, but i think it is a safe bet that that might come up. what labour is wanting to do is keep the pressure up on the government over brexit. we will be speaking to john mcdonald shortly on the programme. amongst all this talk about brexit, they would like their economic policies to break through. you think that will happen? their policies they are more broadly ready

to push because they want to show they are a party ready for government and an election sometime soon. government and an election sometime soon. will talk about education, stopping more academies and free schools and giving councils more say. the centrepiece today is economics and john mcdonald, the shadow chancellor, will talk about the policy to give workers shares in larger firms that could be worth up to £500 per year. that has had criticism from businesses, the cbi saying that would put off investors but labour says it is about decreasing inequality in the country. that is a big push, they wa nt to country. that is a big push, they want to make sure that their policies take centre stage as well as brexit, i am pretty sure brexit will come up time and time again too. thank you. we'll speak to shadow chancellor john mcdonnell in five minutes or so. a public inquiry into a contaminated blood scandal, described as the worst treatment disaster in nhs history, opens today. thousands of patients that had transfusions in the 1970s and 1980s were given blood products

from overseas infected with hepatitis c and hiv. at least 2,a00 people have died as a result. 0ur health correspondent catherine burns reports. it was supposed to keep them alive, but for many it was a death sentence. thousands of people were infected with hiv and hepatitis c after getting contaminated blood. it is impossible to know how many people were infected by transfusions during surgery or child birth. and thousands of hemophiliacs received contaminated blood too. there were not enough supplies in the uk so some was imported from america, from paid donors and prison inmates. he just was an incredibly brave man. barbara scott's husband, ronald, had hemophilia and contracted hiv. he died a few days after his 50th birthday. it feels like, you know, you kind of dragged your children up as best you can and that, in many ways, you know, the state is indifferent to the plight of these people.

there was a privately funded review in 2009 but it had no official status. in 2015, families dismissed a scottish enquiry as a whitewash. now, after years of campaigning, this enquiry will be led by a judge and will be able to compel witnesses to give testimony. when did authorities know about the risks? and did they act quickly enough on that information? catherine burns, bbc news. we will be talking about that later on bbc breakfast. a 20—year—old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder, in connection with the disappearance of a student in his first week at university. thomas jones was last seen near the river severn in worcester during the early hours of last wednesday morning. police have said searches are still ongoing and the arrested man is in police custody.

the opposition candidate in the presidential election in the maldives has claimed a surprise victory. the electoral commission has not announced any results yet, but local media say ibrahim mohamed solih holds an unbeatable lead over sitting president abdulla yameen. meanwhile, supporters of mr solih have been out on the streets of the capital, to urge mr yameen to accept defeat. flash floods and torrential rain in north—eastern tunisia have killed at least five people. reinforcements from the emergency services and the army have been drafted in after saturday's storm brought six months worth of rainfall. water levels have started to receed but telephone networks are still largely out of service. an international mission is underway to rescue an around—the—world sailor, who is seriously injured and stranded in the middle of the indian ocean. abhilash tomy, an indian

national, suffered a back injury when his vessel was damaged during a violent storm. australia, india and france are all sending vessels to help. 0ur correspondent hywel griffith has more. confident and capable, this was abhilash tomy at the beginning of a 30,000 mile race around the world. the indian naval officer set off from france on july 1st, sailing down around the western coast of africa for heading into the indian ocean. there, with his yacht in third place, he hit a5 foot waves, which rolled his vessel 360 degrees and broke his mast. he sent a distress message saying: he is now confined to his bunk. an aircraft has spotted his yacht nearly 2000 miles off the coast of australia. the race is now on to reach him. the boat is a replica of the first yacht to be sailed

around the world single—handedly 50 years ago, by sir robin knox—johnston. the first to reach and maybe another competitor, gregor mcguckin, whose boat was also damaged in the storm. a french patrol vessel and an australian frigate are also on the way to try to bring them to safety. hywel griffith, bbc news. it has already been hailed as one of the great sporting comeback. last night, it tiger woods won the two championship by two shots. his first victory in five years. a remarkable return to form, given what he has been through over the last almost a decade, since that first public fall from grace. a year ago he was ranked outside the world ‘stop from grace. a year ago he was ranked outside the world ‘s top 1000 players. he has had significant back surgery. 0ur golf correspondence said that he had experimental back

surgery, fusing together two of his vertebrae is a. although he walks a bit funny. he still struggles with pain. those who study golf swings, said it as good as a swing as it was in his prime. the analysis of his swing is you do. it is really beautiful stop the people have looked at his swing in such detail. it is incredible to think that he still has that despite the problems he has had. he is a controversial figure, the problems he has had. he is a controversialfigure, not the problems he has had. he is a controversial figure, not everybody loves him. i tell you what, the crowd last night. look at this. they absolutely loved him. on the 18th they followed him and ran. there we re they followed him and ran. there were grown men crying as he won. the american commentary team in a hugely emotional. tiger woods himself in his press conference after this moment here was struggling to keep

it together. have a look. just to be able to compete and play again this year, that's a hell of a comeback. as i said, some of the people are very close to me, they have seen what i've gone through. i was alluding to some of the players i have seen what i've gone through, they know how hard it was just to get back to playing golf again. he almost looks little bit shellshocked. he has been through the ring. semi— people said you are never going to make it. there is a question of some people genuinely think you shouldn't be celebrating his success in a weird way because of the person that he was, or is it a redemption story and shouldn't we be saying this is great? maybe it is a redemption story, i think tiger woods wouldn't be listening to the people who say he will never come back again. is the voice inside his head that has been telling him that and that is why we see him so

emotional now. everybody loves a sporting comeback. his has been com pletely sporting comeback. his has been completely some of the most famous, for example, george foreman, who returned to the wind —— to the ring to win the world heavyweight title aged a5. 0r monica seles, who came back and won the 1996 australian 0pen. niki lauda was in a coma, drove again and won it the next year. when you compare tiger woods to some of those comebacks, some whoppers over the years. but he is not world number one. justin rose! important to remember going into the ryder cup, which starts this friday. it is 12 minutes past seven. lets get more on our main story. we've been hearing labour officials have agreed the wording

of a brexit motion to be discussed at the party conference tomorrow. we can speak now to shadow chancellor of the exchequer, john mcdonnell, who joins us from liverpool. thank you very much for coming on the programme. can we have a bit of clarity on this resolution, it you like's we are due to leave the eu in six months time, so are the labour party backing and other referendum on whether we are in or out? —— and other. —— another. let me take you through what has been agreed. we have this process in the labour party were all of the delegates come together and agree. what has been agreed is that first of all, a clear statement that we respect the last referendum. secondly, if the deal that theresa may brings back from brussels is unacceptable, doesn't pass the test that we set out, in particular the protection of jobs that we set out, in particular the protection ofjobs and the economy, if that is unacceptable we will press for a general election because we believe in a general election,

there will be the wider debate and there will be the wider debate and the country can choose the team that does the negotiations after that. if we cannot get a general election, we will keep on the table the option of a people's vote and in that way, people will be able to determine whether or not they support the deal or not. we will see what happens when theresa may comes back at the moment it doesn't look as though she will have a deal that will either have the support of her own party, let alone parliament. for those who have not seen it, it says that can get a general election, waca support all options on the table, including campaignfora all options on the table, including campaign for a public vote. in the past, the labour party have been accused of being vague and unclear on brexit. when i read that, it seems to serve those exact purposes, it is both vague and on clear. would you agree? no. -- on clear. let's be clear, we campaign for remain and lost. —— unclear. we lost and respect it. the issue

now is whether the government can bring forward a deal that is acceptable, if it isn't, let's have acceptable, if it isn't, let's have a general election. i want discovered to be held to account for what they have done over the last two years, failing to negotiate a deal puts the economy at risk recklessly because of their own infighting. what we want now is a general election. that have a proper debate at the general election, then people can choose what team goes forward to negotiate in the future. if we cannot get that, we will campaignfora if we cannot get that, we will campaign for a people's vote, where people can have their say, but we would prefer a general election. what about the millions that voted labour and put their cross in the leeds box? —— leave. yes, we said we will respect referendum. it was a democratic exercise, they took the decision and we respect it. the issue now is what deal the government brings back, is it acceptable or not? i don't think it acceptable or not? i don't think it will be, that is why ijust want

a general collection, let the people decide both the issue about the deal, but then also who will then do the negotiations after that. i don't think this government, this conservative party, is capable of doing the negotiations of. they have had two years and it looks as though they have significantly failed to. you mentioned you were clear, some people said you are vague and that is not cases. if there was a general election, this is hypothetical, how would you sort brexit by the end of march? well, what we've said all along is first of all we want a package which includes maintaining within a customs union a close relationship with the single market, some reforms we think the other european partners would agree to, things like freedom of movement and the role of the state. we think there's a deal to be had but the way this has been negotiated over the last two years, banging the table and threatening to walk away, that's not how you negotiate with europe.

in my previous life as a chief executive of local government i negotiated with europe on the basis of mutual respect, and then you get the best deal. the problem at the moment is theresa may spend more time negotiating with her own party than our european partners. that can't be right. let's have a general election, let this government move to one side and let us get on with thejob. to one side and let us get on with the job. has anyone in europe told you they would accept that proposal from you? we've been talking to our european partners, there's been a positive response, especially with regard to the customs union. i think there's a deal to be had but not while we've got this government. something else you're talking about today, a proposal to hand a share of companies' equity to the workers. what would that look like and how would that work? there's been a big debate over the years really about building a stakeholder economy where eve ryo ne building a stakeholder economy where everyone has a stake in the economy.

schemes that have been brought forward... a report by the ippr has advocated the distribution of shares to individual workers in companies. we are saying for large companies, about 250 employees, they provide each year 1% of a shareholding to their workers. you do that over ten yea rs their workers. you do that over ten years and at the end of the ten yea rs years and at the end of the ten years the workers will have a stakeholder got 10%. collectively, not given to individuals, but held collectively and from that collectively and from that collective pot of shares, there will obviously be givet is an workers will gain some income of that. after about five years workers will gain around £300 —— the dividends. we will cap that at £500 and above that, any additional income will go to the state, and that can provide schools and hospitals and training and we'll have a social dividend so the whole society will benefit. lots

of these share deals have gone on in europe for a number of years and been incredibly successful, and the research is telling us if workers have a stake in their company, they mauled productive, there's longer term thinking in terms of investment and the companies are more stable —— they're more productive. the financial times have picked up on this on the front of the paper, saying there would be less investment and lower paid. if that's the case, that's the opposite of what you would want? looking at other economies, like germany, where there's been much more worker involvement, it's been the reverse. more investment, longer term making and a growing economy. this is nothing unusual, this happens in other... even the conservatives were arguing about the distribution of shares to workers and never delivered. this is an idea whose time has come. john mcdonnell, good

to talk to you this morning, enjoy your next few days in liverpool.” will. it is cold but rather beautiful. especially in london. carol has the weather for us this morning. it is very cold, you can say that again, but look at my view, a rooftop garden overlooking trafalgar square. this is the famous nelson's column. it wasn't the first civic column in his honour, the first ever erected was in glasgow a year after his death in 1806, and at the foot of nelson's column, there are the four iconic lions. they all sit in the same position but they're not identical, i didn't know that. nelson has a chip on his shoulder, caused by a lightning strike about 20 years or so after it was put there. no lightning today in the forecast but after a chilly start, forecast but after a chilly start, for many it will be a sunny sunny day. but a few showers in the forecast,

more notably in northern and western scotland, northern ireland, northe west england and north—west wales, but showers are hit and miss. high pressure is in charge of our weather —— north—west england. compared to last week, this week the weather will be more settled. not much of a breeze, especially in the north. around the outside of the high pressure we see a lot of the showers. shallow mist and fog to lose this morning, happening readily now, a lot of dry weather, a cold start, lots of sunshine. showers continuing through the day with a bit more cloud building elsewhere, but it is fairweather cloud so a pleasa nt but it is fairweather cloud so a pleasant enough day, but not especially warm. temperatures ranging from ten in the north to highs of around 16 in the south. through the evening and overnight, we'll see a bit more rain coming in across lewis and harris, western scotland, caithness, towards 0rkney and shetland. for the rest of the uk under clear skies, temperatures

dropping like a rock. a cold night with an air frost and we're looking at shallow mist and fog patches forming. look at norwich. we start tomorrow on a chilly night. we lose any tomorrow on a chilly night. we lose a ny s ha llow tomorrow on a chilly night. we lose any shallow mist and fog rapidly, but heavy rain tomorrow, especially across western scotland. you can see it in northern ireland, western scotland, northern ireland into the western isles and less rain in eastern scotland. southern scotland, northern england, northern ireland, wales and the rest of england seeing that sunshine with temperatures tomorrow a bit higher, up to around 19. heading into wednesday, for scotland, northern ireland and northern england, you will have a bit more cloud with the odd spot of rain. for the rest of england and wales, are looking at sunshine and turning that bit warmer. up to 20. thursday is looking like a warm day in parts of the south—east. we could hit 23. that feels like a long way away if

you're standing outside this morning, though, lou and dan!” you're standing outside this morning, though, lou and dan! i can imagine. carol, see you later! a university that's seen an increase in student suicides is asking freshers give their consent for staff to contact a family member on their behalf, if they think they're struggling with mental health issues. it follows a campaign by the father of bristol university student ben murray, who took his own life in may this year. fiona lamdin reports. ben murray was in his first year at bristol university, but after missing exams, he was thrown off his course, but his parents had no idea. we had a very nice lunch. he didn't eat that much. i told him that i loved him, kissed him and then said goodbye. that was the last time i saw him. a few hours later, ben took his life. ben's dad, james, is now calling for a relaxation of the data protection laws that deter universities from alerting parents that their child has a serious mental health problem.

you've got ten weeks where you're going from being treated as a child in effect at school, being looked after in a very safe environment, to going to university with just a ten—week break where you're suddenly an adult and expected to cope with financial pressures, new academic pressures , pressures of being in a new community and settling in. and so for the first time, students starting here at bristol can give their consent, allowing the university to contact an adult if a student becomes physically or mentally. yeah, i'd be really happy to sign it. it's very hard when you're in that place to be able to talk to someone, so to have a third party be able to do that for you makes the process a lot easier. obviously if it's a choice to sign the form, i wouldn't sign it, because we're all at university, we're all 18, we've all made the decision to be here,

surely if a doctor can't go against my consent to tell my parents, the university shouldn't either. in the last 18 months, 11 students have taken their lives at bristol university. others like psychology student laura say they've considered it. at the of the first year, you think, my god, i've already spent £9,000 on this course, £6,000 on accommodation, i'm already £15,000 deep. that's terrifying, you think, i can't drop out now but i can't carry on like this. the idea of an out is very appealing unfortunately. what saved you do you think? couldn't do it to my parents. it's appealing personally, but to leave people behind... no. just couldn't have done it. and that's why this university is investing millions into its mental health service. as well as its new consent policy, there's three new student centre is open 2a hours a day, and over 50 new staff keeping

a watch out for those who are struggling. to have a student death from any cause is a real tragedy, to have a number in quick succession really tears at the very heart of our institution, and our mantra now is the mental health is everybody‘s business at our university. the number of first year students arriving at university with a mental health condition is now five times what it was ten years ago. this is clearly notjust a bristol problem but a national one. and what would ben make of what you're now doing? ben was a very sensitive boy, and he would like to see other people spared this pain. and i'm sure that he'd be happy that i'm behind this campaign, but i think this campaign is really ben's campaign. i know so many students will have gone to university in the last few

weeks. good luck to everybody doing that. thank you to james murray speaking to fiona lamdin as well. if you're feeling emotionally distressed and would like details of organisations which offer advice and support, go online to bbc.co.uk/actionline. call 0800 066 066 too. in the next 15 minutes we might be discussing bodyguard, we will give you a heavy spoiler alert if you're one of the few that didn't stay up late to watch it. are we going to do the noise? if you hear this... that is how you know that... the noise? if you hear this... that is how you know that. .. just go and have a tea for three minutes and it will all be fine hopefully. or maybe not... yeah... we'll be back shortly. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning, i'm asad ahmad.

a man arrested at buckingham palace on suspicion of possessing a taser has been released with no further action after it turned out to be pa rt action after it turned out to be part of a keyring. the 38—year—old, who's visiting london from the netherlands, was detained yesterday lunchtime, but after questioning, scotland yard says the device was low—powered and it was a genuine error which posed no threat. a londoner who set up a company four years ago out of her frustration for not being able to find tights to match her skin tone says it was social media that allowed her to make an impact so quickly. ade hussain provides nude lingerie and hosiery for different skin tones. she started by posting photos on instagram, which went from having 50 followers to 20,000 injust a month. this is why she did it. i could neverfind simple things like tights that were my skin tone, and having something so simple, like nude, not represent you can feel very exclusive, almost like, you know, you're an afterthought. peckham has been named as the uk's

coolest place to live in a time out poll. and not only that, the area in south london is ranked 11th in the world for what's described as its bohemian character. that puts it ahead of new york's west village and amsterdam's noord district. let's have a look at the travel situation now. the bakerloo line has severe delays due to a signal system failure. not quite sure what that means, maybe it's a signal system failure! delays building on the northbound approach to the blackwall tunnel. nothing new there. and in 0rpington, crofton lane is closed due to a sinkhole near the railway bridge. finchley road northbound is down to two lanes past finchley road and fog station because of works going on.

—— fog will station. let's have a check on the weather now with elizabeth. hello, good morning. yesterday, we saw half an inch of rain for many spots, but today and for the rest of the week, it's going to feel very different. staying dry with lots of blue sky and sunshine to come, but also some rather chilly nights. a rather cold start to the new working week, temperatures in low to mid single figures. a few shallow mist patches around as well, they won't last for too long, there'll be lots of blue sky and sunshine for much of the rest of the day. staying pretty much cloud—free for many areas, bit of cloud bubbling up through the north—west through the afternoon. a light north—westerly breeze but temperatures not doing too well, only highs of 1a or 15 degrees celsius. through this evening and overnight, very little changes. it is going to stay dry. we'll see again lots of clear skies around, and temperatures in some rural spots could drop low enough to get a touch of frost perhaps on the grass into tomorrow morning, so it's another rather cold start to the day tomorrow. there'll be lots more sunshine tomorrow, to come, staying dry and temperatures start to rise as we head through the week, perhaps 22 celsius by thursday. and one last story for you.

three police officers have helped deliver a baby girl after her mother gave birth in kentish town one minute before the ambulance arrived. scotland yard says wei—hong yu and her daughter are doing well in hospital. congratulations. hello, this is breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. it has just it hasjust gone it has just gone 7:30am. after five and a half hours of discussions behind closed doors, labour officials have hammered out a brexit motion to be discussed at the party conference in liverpool. it will propose that, if there isn't a general election, labour should support all options including, campaigning for another referendum on eu membership. it would come into play if the government fails to pass their own much—contested brexit plan through parliament. what we want now is a general

election. let's have a proper debate at the general election, then people can choose what team goes forward to negotiate in the future. if we can't get that, yes, we will campaign for a people's vote where people can have their say. but we would not prefer a general election. —— we would much prefer. a public inquiry into a contaminated blood scandal, described as the worst treatment disaster in nhs history, opens today. thousands of patients that had transfusions in the 1970s and 1980s were given blood products from overseas infected with hepatitis c and hiv. at least 2,a00 people have died as a result. a 20—year—old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder, in connection with the disappearance of a student in his first week at university. thomas jones was last seen near the river severn in worcester during the early hours of last wednesday morning. police have said searches are still ongoing and the arrested man is in police custody. the opposition candidate in the presidential election

in the maldives, has claimed a surprise victory. the electoral commission has not announced any results yet, but local media say ibrahim mohamed solih holds a lead over sitting president abdulla yameen, who's been accused of curtailing civil liberties in the country. mr solih has now called for a peaceful transfer of power. flash floods and torrential rain in north—eastern tunisia have killed at least five people. reinforcements from the emergency services and the army have been drafted in after saturday's storm brought six months worth of rainfall. water levels have started to receed but telephone networks are still largely out of service. an international mission is underway to rescue an around—the—world sailor, who is seriously injured and stranded in the middle of the indian ocean. 39—year—old naval officer abhilash tomy suffered a back injury when his boat was damaged during a violent storm, 2,000 miles off the coast of western australia. it's hoped a french vessel could reach him later today. coming up on the programme, all of

the weather with carol. i can give you a spoiler. there may be some bodyguard chat. we will let you know when you need to avert your eyes. you don't need to worry at this point. unless you recorded the gulf, i don't know! —— golf. point. unless you recorded the gulf, i don't know! -- golf. justin rose one part of the golf. an incredible achievement for him, but all of the headlines of stolen this morning by this man, tiger woods, what a comeback! it was. it is a tale of redemption,, comeback! it was. it is a tale of redemption, , after his comeback! it was. it is a tale of redemption,, after his troubles over the last decade. —— redemption, perhaps. tiger woods has won his first title in five years, the season ending pga tour championship. less than a year ago

the fourteen—time major champion had doubted whether he would play competitively again, but after successful back surgery has found his form. adam wild reports. he is one of sports great superstars. this, one of sports greatest comeback. —— comebacks. going into the final round in the lead, he was on the hunt for a first win in five years, a site few thought they would see again. but immediately, a glimpse of the nervous calm for which he was once so nervous calm for which he was once so revered. kind him, other greats of the modern game. rory mcilroy and the world number one, justin rose. —— behind. but they, like the others, couldn't keep up. serious injury and personal problems have taken their toll, at this glorious reminder of the woods of old. 0nce again leading the charge to victory, the rest left in his wake. golf loves a great champion and in tiger

woods has perhaps never been one greater. this remarkable return makes that even clearer. adam wilde, bbc news. just to be able to compete and play again this year, that's a hell of a comeback. as i said, some of the people are very close to me, they have seen what i've gone through. i was alluding to some of the players i have seen what i've gone through, they know how hard it was just to get back to playing golf again. he is definitely back. well, it's early stages in the scottish premiership but the signs are that we could be in for the most open race for the title in years. that's because celtic suffered defeat for the second time in their opening six games. they conceded in the last minute to lose 2—1 at kilmarnock, and are six points off hearts, who are top. it's celtic‘s worst start to a season in 20 years. should celtic fans be alarmed about the way the results are going? yeah, i think they should.

i think they should. it's always, when you are a huge club like celtic, the demand is to win. in the last couple of years we have done that, done that really well and playing in a style that is synonymous with the club. so it hasn't been the same. but we have to work to make it better. steven gerrard's rangers are now above celtic and up to second in the league after thrashing stjohnston 5—1 at ibrox. gerrard said it's the best football he's seen from his side since taking over in the summer. arsenal made it five wins in a row in all competitions, with a 2—0 premier league victory over everton at the emirates. alexandre lacazette's brilliant opening goal put them in front, after arsenal keeper petr cech had made a number of saves to keep them in it. aubameyang made it 2—0, but replays showed he was well offside. in the days early kick off, west ham drew 0—0 with chelsea. in the womens super league, leaders arsenal twice came

from behind to beat west ham a—3, thanks to a hat—trick from danielle van de donk, to maintain their unbeaten start to the season. liverpool clinched a win over brighton in their first game since the resignation of manager neil redfearn. elsewhere, everton drew 0—0 against chelsea and manchester city drew 2—2 with bristol city. said that is all of your sports news. —— so. said that is all of your sports news. -- so. icannot said that is all of your sports news. -- so. i cannot wait for the next bit. siren rings. sorry about that, it is a spoiler alert. they have heard that and probably looked at the television to see what is happening. we will be discussing the bodyguard. if you do not want to see it, don't look at the tv. millions of us tuned in to watch the series finale of the nail—biting bbc one drama the bodyguard last night, and fans of the show finally got answers to all of their lingering questions. so many questions! for those of you who haven't had chance to catch up with the final episode yet, turn down the volume now as there are quite a few

spoilers coming up. maybe just turn it down. before we discuss it, let's take a look at how the series came to a close. there is room for one more. air? -- yeah? yeah. ok. i'll get my bag. mummy‘s going to come too! yeah? yeah. ok. i'll get my bag. mummy's going to come too! cheering. laughter. 0k. can we brees?

—— breathe. buzzfeed's tv editor scott bryan was watching, hejoins us now. i wasn't able to breathe throughout most of it. was it a good finish? i think so, yes. everybody had their own theory about how it would end up. i gave my own, i was completely wrong, most people were. what did you tell us? i thought it was the police and the security services into hoots with each other but it wasn't either of them. —— cahoots. for the most part, it held up. i have never seen for the most part, it held up. i have never seen a for the most part, it held up. i have never seen a drama where they we re have never seen a drama where they were able to put a twist in about two minutes before the end and it wasn't too much. some of it went towards the realms of implausibility. but at the end of it, the creator brings it back. you didn't get a sense that it was forward why did at the end? no, actually at the end i found it quite

touching. at the end of it, david went to speak to somebody about his mental health. for me, in every single drama i have ever seen, you see a guy single drama i have ever seen, you see a guy with a lot of emotional turmoil, but he is the hero and everything is fantastic. here it shows that actually, if you are the hero, it is ok to have a chat about your mental health and talk to somebody about it. i've never seen that before and i thought that was really good to show that people. one of the central characters, julia montague, killed off, about halfway through one of the biggest dramas of the year, louise remains convinced that she is not dead. all sorts of conspiracy theories, one being was she the person at the window making the call? they were charged with conspiracy to murder, which doesn't require a dead waddy. yes. ashraf dead waddy. will she come back? -- dead waddy. will she come back? --

dead body. i think she's done. this is the thing that has always been done, when he kills off a character, he kills off a character. does he need to follow his script? he could do something different! this year she will be in a forthcoming series, we will have to hide her because we cannot reveal she is coming back. it isa cannot reveal she is coming back. it is a case of, ifind, if there is one, they will set it up in a different way. i cannot wait to have this conversation. we don't even know, we are giving no spoilers because we don't know for definite if there will be a second series of. they showed some clips at the end of line of duty, if they filmed soon, it won't be out for another two yea rs. if it won't be out for another two years. if you have a drama which is the biggest bbc drama for ten years ratings wise, it would be complete madness. the actor who plays dp

sharma will be with us. we talk a lot about the series of netflix and amazon taking on the tv world. this isa amazon taking on the tv world. this is a really good sign for terrestrial tv that it can still have that big audience of people turning on the tv at the right time and watching what is on and catching up. absolutely. i think it is down to pacing. when netflix released six episodes at once, it is fantastic. what they have done is a masterstro ke what they have done is a masterstroke by not revealing any spoilers or teasers during the week and it keeps the audience hooked back in. i have had this idea of pacing yourself through tv and that is where the bbc does things well. they in —— they drop entire box sets, you can still get more than ten millions on a sunday night. is not over. madden, what a great act!

it happen so many times in different dramas, lots of other peoples and film is, will would have seen it and saying we want to have you! it will bea saying we want to have you! it will be a struggle for the bbc to keep him on. what he did with line of duty, he changes up the cast well. he likes bringing in people who are lesser known as. normally it is the case that the biggest actor in it is the person behind it, he has this clever knack of never giving his game away and being too obvious who was behind it. i am looking forward to you being here in two years time saying luiz you were right!” to you being here in two years time saying luiz you were right! i want that hastings to serve them work in —— solve the murder in bodyguard.- the end, they were like ted is here, where were you 15 minutes ago? —— ted hastings. that would have sold it. thank you very much. get rid of the spoiler alert now. come back to

us the spoiler alert now. come back to us and carol as well, who returns after a little time away. lovely to have you back, what is happening out there? lovely to be back. good morning, everyone. in towns and cities at the moment temperatures are 6—8, in rural areas, to “11. the lowest temperature is benson —— to— four. a cold start wherever you are. lot of sunshine on the forecast today. fairly dry for many, but a few showers, more notably across northern and western scotland, northern ireland, north—west england and north—west wales. high pressure is firmly in charge and it will be for much of this week. as you can see from the lack of isobars, it's not particularly breezy, except for the northern half of the country. any shallow mist and

fog is more less clearing, and lots getting off to a bright, sunny and chilly start. showers in the north and west of the uk and in the areas i mentioned, on and off through the day, some will miss them altogether and more fairweather cloud will develop through the day. no heat wave, though, temperatures ranging from ten in the north to highs of about 16 from ten in the north to highs of about16 in from ten in the north to highs of about 16 in the south. you'll still need to wrap up if you're heading out. this evening and overnight, a lot of clear sky around, temperatures topping quickly. an overnight low of two in norwich. also some rain in parts of northern ireland, western scotland, lewis and harris as well, caithness, heading up harris as well, caithness, heading up to orkney and shetland. temperatures roughly in the low single figures, except for where we've got the cloud and rain in the north—west where they will be higher. tomorrow, any mist and fog forming will clear rapidly and then

forming will clear rapidly and then for most of england and wales, a sunny, dry day with variable cloud. for scotland and northern ireland, and perhaps the far north of northern england, more cloud and rain, the heaviest of which will be across northern and western parts of scotland. eastern won't have as heavy rain. temperatures creeping up on the date. tomorrow we're looking at 17-19 -- on the date. tomorrow we're looking at 17—19 —— on today. on wednesday, for northern ireland, northern england and scotland, a bit more cloud around, also spots of rain. for the rest of england and wales, more sunshine and temperatures up to about 20. by the time we get to thursday, parts of the south—east could have temperatures back up at 23, pretty good for this time of year romelu and dan. also when you're standing in the freezing cold it must sound nice! —— this time of year, lou and dan. you haven't got your gloves today! i know, i wish i

had brought them! poor preparation! i will have them tomorrow. sean is here talking about petrol pump prices. not easy today, you have to be careful when you say that! if you've been filling up your tank recently, you'll have noticed prices at the pump have been rising and rising. it's been pretty much 12 weeks of rising prices. the cost of filling up a typical 55—litre family car on petrol or diesel has risen by around £6 over the past six months. we asked these drivers in cheshire how they're feeling about that. i've spend £25 in this van, in the company van, another £100, something like that. so it's a fair amount of money. i've got a diesel car and, to be honest with you, i don't know... i don't know where they get their

prizes from to be honest with you, i think something needs to be done. you just go to pay view also it is what it is, you know, you can't get out of doing it. it's one of those things, like food, you have to buy it so you just live with it really. but is a bit of relief on the way? the aa reckons that because oil prices have fallen then a fall should be on the way at the pumps. will it happen? james spencer is from the portland fuel consultancy. good morning. good morning. the last point the gentleman was making, we have to buy it, it is like food, do the retailers take advantage of that, it is something people have to buy every week? it is true that it is something people have to buy every week. i don't think retailers ta ke every week. i don't think retailers take advantage of that, though. retailers will buy the fuel on a wholesale basis and at the transportation costs, potentially storage and handling costs, and obviously the cost of running the petrol station. margins in general

are in the uk better than in the past, but historic studies show uk petrol station margins are amongst the lowest in europe so i don't think they take advantage. when people get that feeling that when they see stories about the oil price falling, like we talk about, petrol prices don't fall as quickly as when they're on the up. the starting point is people see the oil price moving and they need to remind themselves that 80p per litre is a flat rate of tax effectively. 60p is the petrol duty, and a further 20p there is, that's a percentage, that's vat. when we talk about petrol prices going up and down, we're only looking at the 40p or 50p remaining when you take out the tax, but with oil prices, that's the whole thing. you mentioned the tax bit, the budget later this year, there's been talk of fuel duty rises for the first time in many years. is that likely? it's looking more

likely. that being said, we've been saying that for a few years. there's been a budget freeze for eight yea rs, been a budget freeze for eight years, so been a budget freeze for eight years, so that means fuel duty has paid the same level for the last eight years. if you look at the last 25-30 eight years. if you look at the last 25—30 years, that's quite unprecedented at a time when the government needs increased revenue, they still need to balance the books. if you just do the numbers, there's about 50 billion litres of road fuel consumed in the uk every year. 1p per litre, if you add that on, if you do the maths, 50 billion pennies, £500 million a year. there's not many ways a government can raise £500 million a year in a pretty indirect way. of course, motorists will pay, but it's not a direct tax. the aa saying prices could come down by around 3p? direct tax. the aa saying prices could come down by around 3mm seems a bold projection. you've got uncertainty with brexit, and that tends to move the exchange rate up and down. remember, if the exchange

rate goes down then that will push prices up. because we're importing? yeah, and equally the mood music from opec this weekend, they're not going tojump in and we're yet to see the real impact of us sanctions on iran. it could be a move to try to provoke a bit of a price war, but i don't think viewers should hold their breath. keep an eye on those pumps! thanks, sean. thanks for being with us on thanks, sean. thanks for being with us on this monday morning. we're going to talk now to a man who is part way through a very big ride on a very small bike. peter williams has set off on an epic 200—mile journey in memory of his daughter ellie, who lost her life to brain cancer aged seven. he's riding her cherished pink bike all the way from bristol to land's end. he's taken a break to join us from okehampton in west devon. good morning to you. my goodness me,

we really get a sense of how difficult this challenge might be when we see you on the bike. tell us firstly about why you're doing it. good morning, louise. well, as you know, my daughter, ellie, died three yea rs know, my daughter, ellie, died three years ago from a brain tumour. early on in the year, i was having a sort through the garage and i came across her bike. i was trying to think of something inspiring and fun to do, raising money for the brain tumour charity and promoting brain tumour awareness really. you decided you would right despite a long way. tell us would right despite a long way. tell us about... clearly you are too big for the bike, how challenging does it make it? it's got small wheels, and the handlebars are quite narrow, so and the handlebars are quite narrow, so it can be quite challenging at times to deal with some of the things that are thrown at me. not literally thrown at me! when i left bristol, there were loads of conquers all over the road and they

we re conquers all over the road and they were quite tricky. in somerset, had fallen apples because of the strong winds. it's been good, it's a great bike and it's been holding up well. and it's a bike that she loved? she did indeed. she got it for her last christmas. it was very special to her, very special to all of us and i couldn't think of a more fun and inspirational thing to do than to ride it from bristol children's hospital to lands end. what do people make of you when they see you on this tiny bike, what do they say to you? it certainly attracts a bit of attention and turns a few heads, but to be honest, all the way from bristol onwards, people have been running up to me, giving donations, tooting their horns and shouting support all the way. there was a lovely old man in bristol called ted who got off the bus with his shopping especially to give me money for my ride. it is really encouraging support. how is the bike

doing and how is your body doing? right, the bike's doing fine. i had a brake cable snapped yesterday but got that sorted. it's not designed for somebody as big as me so considering that, the bike is really holding up well. my knees are doing okays. my back‘s doing ok. i'm doing my stretches and everything's going fine. —— doing ok. my stretches and everything's going fine. -- doing 0k. you've got some hills to look forward to, shall we say look forward to? i look forward to the downhills. devon has got some serious hills, which i discovered yesterday, but now i've got working brakes, they are fine. good luck to you and amazing what you're doing. peter williams, thank you very much indeed, on his little pink bike. thank you so much. thank you. good luck with the rest of it. what an amazing way to remember someone what an amazing way to remember someone special to him and others as well. bodyguard fans, warning,

spoiler alert... actor ash tandon, who plays dci deepak sharma in the series, will be here for a full debrief of last night's finale just after 8:30am. there he is! do you have to say 0830 asa there he is! do you have to say 0830 as a copper! exactly! time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. we will see you with the headlines at 8am. good morning, i'm asad ahmad. three police officers in camden have delivered a baby girl after a woman went into labour in kentish town last night. the really hard work was done by mum, wee—hong yu, while pc burch, pc williams and pc king assisted. the baby was born one minute before the ambulance arrived. mother and her yet—unnamed baby daughter are doing well in hospital. congratulations to them! a man arrested at buckingham palace on suspicion of possessing a taser has been released with no further

action after it turned out to be part of a keyring. the 38—year—old, who's visiting london from the netherlands, was detained yesterday lunchtime but after questioning scotland yard says the device was low—powered, and it was a genuine error which posed no threat. a londoner who set up a company four years ago out of her frustration for not being able to find tights to match her skin tone says it was social media that allowed her to make an impact so quickly. ade hussain provides nude lingerie and hosiery for different skin tones. she started by posting photos on instagram which went from having 50 followers to 20,000 injust a month. this is why she did it. i could neverfind simple things like tights that were my skin tone, and having something so simple, like nude, not represent you can feel very exclusive, almost like, you know, you're an afterthought. peckham has been named as the uk's coolest place to live in a time out poll. and not only that,

but the area in south london is ranked 11th in the world for what's described as its bohemian character. that puts it ahead of new york's west village. let's have a look at the travel situation now. the bakerloo line, severe delays due to a signal system failure. on the roads... delays building on the northbound approach to the blackwall tunnel. in 0rpington, crofton lane is closed due to a sinkhole near the railway bridge. let's have a check on the weather now with elizabeth. hello, good morning. yesterday, we saw half an inch of rain for many spots, but today and for the rest of the week, it's going to feel very different. staying dry with lots of blue sky and sunshine to come, but also some rather chilly nights. a rather cold start to the new working week, temperatures in low to mid single figures. a few shallow mist patches around as well, they won't last for too long, there'll be lots of blue sky and sunshine for much of the rest of the day. staying pretty much cloud—free for many areas, bit of cloud bubbling up through the north—west

through the afternoon. a light north—westerly breeze but temperatures not doing too well, only highs of 1a or 15 degrees celsius. through this evening and overnight, very little changes. it is going to stay dry. we'll see again lots of clear skies around, and temperatures in some rural spots could drop low enough to get a touch of frost perhaps on the grass into tomorrow morning, so it's another rather cold start to the day tomorrow. there'll be lots more sunshine tomorrow, to come, staying dry and temperatures start to rise as we head through the week, perhaps 22 degrees celsius by thursday. that's it. vanessa feltz is on bbc radio london right now with her breakfast show. good morning welcome to breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. our headlines today: labour party officials hammer out their response to calls for a new brexit referendum — members are told it's only an option

if there isn't a general election. thousands affected by a contaminated blood scandal in the 70s and 80s get their day in court, as a public inquiry opens into what's been described as the worst treatment disaster in nhs history. tiger woods is back. these extraordinary crowds in atlanta rushed to see him win his first golf tournament in five years. thomas cook's profits will be hit by the summer heatwave — remember that? as more of us holidayed at home. the bodyguard — one of the most watched dramas of the decade, comes to a high octaine end, but did it live up to expectations? good morning from central london. we are overlooking trafalgar square and the sun is beating down. wherever you are it be a chilly start with showers across the uk. i will have

more in 15 minutes. it's monday the 24th of september. after five and a half hours of discussions behind closed doors, labour officials have hammered out a brexit motion to be discussed at the party conference in liverpool. it states that, if there isn't a general election, labour should support all options including, campaigning for another referendum. our political correspondent alex forsyth is at the labour conference — alex, will this outcome please leavers and remainers? so far, nobody has pushed back on it. the problem for labour was this, there were groups within the party pushing hard for labour to become the party that officially backed the campaignfor the party that officially backed the campaign for another vote on the brexit deal. but there were concerned that if labour did that it might alienate the supporters who did want to leave the european

union. so jeremy corbyn did want to leave the european union. sojeremy corbyn said it is up union. sojeremy corbyn said it is up to party members. and officials got together and it took them a long time, but they came up with this form of words which will be voted on later this week which says, if we cannot get a general election and things go wrong with theresa may and the brussels negotiations, we will lock out all the options and one of those might be campaigning for another vote. but the shadow chancellorjohn mcdonnell made it clear this morning, the preference was for a general election. what we wa nt was for a general election. what we want now is a general election, let's have a proper debate in a general election and people can choose what team goes forward to negotiate in the future. yes, we will campaign for a vote where people can have their say if we cannot get that. but we would much prefer a general election. people who wanted that vote, art pleased it is officially on the table. but it won't happen straightaway because it isa won't happen straightaway because it is a let's wait and see. theresa may

has ruled out another vote and the general election but she is struggling having brussels reject her latest plan. she will meet cabinet members this afternoon. they are not there to formally discuss leaving the european union but i am sure it will come up. but labour plan to keep the pressure on the government over brexit. john mcdonnell was talking about plans for big business, what will he be saying today? the party, despite the brexit talk, want to push some of their policies as well. one of those is to give workers in larger companies with more than 250 employees, a stake in the business. they would get shares, which labour says would be worth up to £500 a year. it is already facing criticism from business groups who say it will put off investors butjohn mcdonnell said it is about reducing inequality, giving people more of a chance. the reason labour are so keen to push those policies as well

as the talk about brexit and everything else, come back to the main point. they want to show they are main point. they want to show they a re party main point. they want to show they are party waiting for government, they are a party that wants there to bea they are a party that wants there to be a general election. alex, thank you. enjoy your few days in liverpool this week. a public inquiry into a contaminated blood scandal, described as the worst treatment disaster in nhs history — opens today. thousands of patients that had transfusions in the 1970s and 1980s were given blood products from overseas infected with hepatitis c and hiv. at least 2,400 people have died as a result. the travel operator thomas cook has said this morning that they're expecting lower profits. sean's got more on the reason why. they are expecting to make a0 or £50 million less profit than they were expecting, because of the heat wave. they rely on people making

last—minute bookings and loads of us do that these days. but because the weather was so good, they saw a material difference in people deciding to stay at home. that meant they were having to be a bit more competitive in the market to persuade people to get flights out to spain. they were having to discount a little bit more so they we re discount a little bit more so they were making less money. we were not booking as many holidays as before. on top of that we have seen it filter through into their winter holiday booking as well. the feeling of us being in holiday mode and booking holidays this summer, when it starts to disappear, it has an effect on their profits as well. they rely on those summer sales. a problem for thomas cook but they hope they can make up for in next year. we can save the weather has turned colder. it has. start thinking about your holiday now. a 20—year—old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder, in connection with the disappearance

of a student in his first week at university. thomas jones was last seen near the river severn in worcester during the early hours of last wednesday morning. police have said searches are still ongoing and the arrested man is in police custody. the opposition candidate in the presidential election in the maldives, has claimed a surprise victory. the electoral commission has not announced any results yet, but local media say ibrahim mohamed solih holds a lead over sitting president abdulla yameen, who's been accused of curtailing civil liberties in the country. mr solih has now called for a peaceful transfer of power. flash floods and torrential rain in north—eastern tunisia have killed at least five people. reinforcements from the emergency services and the army have been drafted in after saturday's storm brought six months worth of rainfall. dramatic rescue taking place there. water levels have started to receed but telephone networks are still largely out of service.

an international mission is under way to rescue an around—the—world sailor, who is seriously injured and stranded in the middle of the indian ocean. abhilash tomy, an indian national, suffered a back injury when his vessel was damaged during a violent storm. australia, india and france are all sending help. our correspondent hywel griffith has more. confident and capable, this was abhilash tomy at the beginning of a 30,000 mile race around the world. the indian naval officer set off from france on july 1st, sailing down around the western coast of africa for heading into the indian ocean. there, with his yacht in third place, he hit a5 foot waves, which rolled his vessel 360 degrees and broke his mast. he is now confined to his bunk. an aircraft has spotted his yacht nearly 2000 miles off the coast of australia.

the race is now on to reach him. the boat is a replica of the first yacht to be sailed around the world single—handedly 50 years ago, by sir robin knox—johnston. the first to reach him maybe another competitor, gregor mcguckin, whose boat was also damaged in the storm. a french patrol vessel and an australian frigate are also on the way to try to bring them to safety. hywel griffith, bbc news. remarkable story. hope he is found and is ok. now, it's already being hailed as one of the great sporting comebacks — last night tiger woods won the season—ending tour championship by two shots to claim his first victory in five years? sally's here with us. the last decade for tiger woods has been a nightmare. this moment for

him yesterday was hugely significant and you only had to see the crowds waiting for the moment when he's won on the 18th. they ran towards, everybody wanted to be there to see the special moment. no matter what he has done in the past, the misdemeanours and the things he has done wrong, evenjust misdemeanours and the things he has done wrong, even just last year, misdemeanours and the things he has done wrong, evenjust last year, he was stopped and found to have prescription drugs in his system. he has had a nightmare basically but they still love him. the american commentators were in tears. speaking after his victory yesterday, he said he didn't know he would even be able to play golf again at one point. just to be able to compete and play again this year, it is a hell of a comeback. some of the people very close to me, they have seen what i've gone through. i was alluding to some of the players who have seen what i have gone through. they know how hard it was just to get back to

playing golf again. that is his moment of glory, the ryder cup sta rts moment of glory, the ryder cup starts in four or five days. i moment of glory, the ryder cup starts in four orfive days. i know justin rose didn't win the tournament yesterday but he won the end of season standings, so $10 million and he is the number one. so there is so much to look forward to with the ryder cup? it is one of those moments where everybody gets involved, everybody gets very hyped up. if anything is going to hike team usa up, it seemed that man arrived after his special moment of redemption. excellent, it is all set up nicely. thank you very much indeed. in the 1970s and 80s, thousands of people became ill after being treated with contaminated blood products from abroad, infected with hiv and hepatitis c. it's been described as one of the worst scandals in nhs history. today, more than a0 years later, victims and their families hope an inquiry will finally answer some

of their questions about what went wrong. mark ward, a campaigner who was infected by contaminated blood, joins us now from our london newsroom. thank you for talking to us. tell us about your story and when you first knew you had been infected? good morning. i was born with severe haemophilia so when i was diagnosed at age three, that is when the treatment started. every injection, with haemophiliacs, we don't have blood transfusions, we have blood products. you can imagine a three—year—old little boy, when he is crawling and starting to walk and bumping into things, you need treatment on almost every other day. plus i used to have nosebleeds. so right from the work go, pathogens and contaminants that were known to be in the blood products, i was infected from the word go. it wasn't

until later on when i was 1a, being discharged from hospital that my pa rents were discharged from hospital that my parents were told i had hiv. already you were dealing with a challenging issue and then that must have been devastating for them as well as you? exactly. devastating for them as well as you? exa ctly. a ny devastating for them as well as you? exactly. any parents, who are told their baby is going to die, 1a years old or not, i was told i probably wouldn't live long enough to leave school. how are you now? i am sitting here, so i must be doing something right. itake sitting here, so i must be doing something right. i take a lot of medication and that medication literally keeps me alive. my haemophilia, because it is a degenerative condition, myjoints are disintegrating. i will never improve and! are disintegrating. i will never improve and i am getting worse. i am needing more surgery to help with some of myjoints. both ankles are fused on my left knee has been

replaced. i am turning into the bionic man, gradually. it is lovely you are able to speak to us. let's talk about the quarry, so many people have been waiting so long for this, how are you feeling. -- enquiry. i have mixed emotions because we have been betrayed so many times in the past. i know it is a strong word, but it is. we have been paid lip service for many yea rs. been paid lip service for many years. i have met with sir brian and i have faith in him, i do believe he isa man i have faith in him, i do believe he is a man of honour. everything he has said so far, he has listened to andi has said so far, he has listened to and i do believe that he wants to get to the truth. he wants to give us get to the truth. he wants to give us what we have been calling for all of these decades. and the truth will help you? yes it will, but for me personally, by knowing the truth means that we can now act on the

truth to protect future generations. i cannot be uninfected, it isn't about money or glory, it is about using the information we can gain, put it with what we know today, to protect those who haven't even been born yet. over the years, many of you have come to know each other, how is the group coping ahead of this enquiry? i was with a group of fantastic people, some of the survivors from the school last night. it is real, rather it. it is very dark and we are talking about tragic events. my passion is commercial aviation and i explain it to be be back if an aeroplane dropped out of the sky, there is immediately protocols set in place to fore nsically immediately protocols set in place to forensically identify what that problem was and correct it so it can

never happen again. we have never had that. so when you are meeting with people you have known for a number of years and gradually the group is getting smaller, the bond does tend to get stronger with each meeting and you support each other. best of luck as you listen to the enquiry. thank you for talking to us and mark ward, thank you for your time. we have a statement from the government spokesperson says the infected blood enquiry is a priority for the government, is extremely important that all those who have suffered so terribly can get the a nswe i’s suffered so terribly can get the answers they have spent decades waiting for and lessons can be learnt so a tragedy of this scale can never happen again. carol has the weather for us this morning, and what a great view of central london you have. trafalgar square, built out of granite from dartmoor, nelson ‘s column, ican granite from dartmoor, nelson ‘s column, i can remember quite how tall it is but i am sure that carol is packed full of statistics! it stands roundabout 18 feet and one

inch, various different measurements you can take depending upon how far up you can take depending upon how far up and how far down on the column you are, it weighs about 2500 tonnes, built to commemorate admiral horatio nelson, who died in the battle of trafalgar, 1805, constructed between 1840 and 1843 but it was not the first civilian monument elected in his honour, that was last go green, 18 six, a year after he died. —— 1806. some belting down, perishing first thing this morning, temperatures starting to rise in the sunshine, for most of us, a chilly start, sunshine in the hmmfi us, a chilly start, sunshine in the forecast today, and also a few showers. temperatures are between six and eight in towns and cities and in rural areas, between two and four or five, the lowest damages we have seen out five, the lowest damages we have seen our in five, the lowest damages we have

seen our in benson five, the lowest damages we have seen our in benson and kate bridge, freezing and —3, respectively. a few variations in the forecast but not much in the way of a breeze around. a lot of dry weather, a lot of sunshine, showers across northern and western scotland, northern ireland, north—west england, north we st ireland, north—west england, north west wales. on and off through the day but not all of us will see one. —— katesbridge. fairweather cloud building, so it will be pleasant but not particularly warm, temperatures ranging from ten in the north to 16 in the south. through the evening, under clear skies, temperatures dropping rapidly, shower, mist and fog patches forming, rain turning heavier across parts of northern ireland, but especially western scotland, outer hebrides, caithness, and the northern isles as well. temperatures falling into low single figures in towns and cities. tomorrow, dry start for most, chile

one, losing mist and fog quickly, rain will be heavier across western scotland, someone getting into northern ireland. and the northern isles and the outer hebrides and the north of scotland. —— chilly one. in the sunshine temperatures will be higher, highs of up to 19 today. heading into wednesday, for northern ireland, northern england and scotland, a bit more cloud, the odd splash of rain, for the rest of england and wales, dry, fair bit of sunshine, temperatures again that little bit higher, twin 18 and 20 celsius. if you like temperatures higher, thursday, looks like parts of the south—east could well hit 22 or 23 celsius. —— of the south—east could well hit 22 or23 celsius. —— between 18 of the south—east could well hit 22 or 23 celsius. —— between 18 and 20 celsius. in my book, 22, 23, that is more like it! looks like a crisp autumn morning. thank you forjoining us today.

let's take a look at today's papers... chat about the bodyguard on the sun's front page. a sweet picture of prince george who was a page boy over the weekend and what it calls a secret number 10 plan to invite the german president to the cenotaph for the 100th anniversary of world war one. the guardian uncovers what it calls "startling" figures showing that less than a third of prosecutions against men aged 18—24 result in convictions. a demonstrator poses with a beatles statue in liverpool, ahead of the labour conference. the times says the home secretary has provoked anger in the conservative party by proposing that eu citizens enjoy "limitless" access to the uk for more than two years after a "no—deal" brexit. it looks ahead to the conference with plans to give workers shares, and a photo of mp luciana berger being escorted by a police officer as she left an antisemitism event yesterday.

and the telegraph reports that the cabinet is backing a canada brexit deal. and fashion noir, with a frill, eva herzigova on the catwalk in milan as part of a cast of supermodels and actresses. we did of course watch blue planet two, last year, really affected by a lot of the things we are talking about, a note on the new documentary that will be out, drowning in plastic, it will examine the damage done by approximately 8 million tonnes of plastic dumped in the ocea ns tonnes of plastic dumped in the oceans this year, presented by a biologist. i'm sure we will keep watching that. —— blue planet two. —— drowning in plastic. talking of television, you can watch the iplayer, not just for television, you can watch the iplayer, notjust for watching programmes already on, you can watch television live, if you are desperate to see what is coming up on the programme, you can actually click bbc one on the iplayer, and watch as live wherever you are, on the train, on your phone, on your tablet. repeats of my other show are

on bbc two but brand—new episode today, quarter past two, bbc one! is that a disgraceful plug? you have got to plug your own programme! it is not as though i am working on a different channel. it is in a different channel. it is in a different channel! bbc one... but it is the same time on bbc two. that doesn't count. watch us on the iplayer! laughter i would never get away with that! laughter we all know tree rings can be counted to work out the age of a tree, but could they also reveal what the weather was like way back in history. you know, i've a feeling i am going to get told off! laughter cambridge scientists are now using tree samples from more than a thousand years ago to find out how the climate has changed. our science correspondent richard westcott has more. this loch in the scottish highlands is hiding clues that could help us

better predict the impact of climate change. scientists are searching for them under the water. swimming around for hours, it is tough, hands on fieldwork. this is where an underwater chainsaw would be easier. just take it slow at the beginning. they are winching out trees that lived and died hundreds, even thousands of years ago, but the water has preserved them. so rob, this could have been in the lock for 6—700 years? oh yes. hopefully this was here and died 600 years ago, and then we don't have many rings it has got yet, if it has 200 rings that will take us back to the 1200s. by studying their rings, you get a written, annual diary of the summer climate going way back in time. so here, you have got wider rings, it gets thinner and then it gets wide again, thinner and wider. these represent that this tree was growing quicker and slower. we have material for scotland for the northern cairngorms, within 10 km of here, going back 8000 years.

we have a lot of gaps at the moment, we are continuous back 900 years, we have an 11th century gap, which is very annoying. then we have got quite a lot of material for the first millennium ad. the width of tree rings can give clues to temperature, rainfall and some surprising things. rock avalanches, snow avalanches, earthquakes, tsunamis. if they come in and wipe out all the trees, we can date those. so one could be quite creative in aspects of incremental change by studying tree rings. in a new lab at cambridge university, ulf buntgen is using trees from around the world to create the longest, continuous, tree ring—based climate diary. this is the year 1816, a year without a summer in large parts of europe, it is following a major tropical volcanic eruptions. it is resulting in a narrow ring, just two cells on the entire growing season that was most likely very cold and also very wet. using samples from living trees, medieval churches, peat bogs,

building sites and lakes, they are already unearthing new, dramatic events. we have recently discovered the so—called late little ice age the period starting precisely in the year536, following a cluster of chemical eruptions that triggered a period of roughly 100,120 years. here is the evidence. a tree ring from 536a.d, a larger cells are frost damage from a dramatic drop in temperature. the line down the middle is more frost damage, but this time from 1258, when another equatorial volcanic eruption froze europe. these thin rings show plummeting scottish temperatures that caused a famine in the 1690s. but what about boiling hot 2018? we can bet a beer that the ring should be relatively wide — it was a good, productive warm year. by reconstructing the climate

of the past, scientists can work out if the warming seen in recent years is truly unusual. richard westcott, bbc news, in the cairngorms. hello! and we have the sample of scottish pine you saw in that report, here in the studio. you can read them if you are a specialist like a book, telling us what is happening in all those hundreds of years that was a livestock white when you have something as old as this, you think of all the things that happened while it was around, magna carta, battle of hastings, great historical events. this is from 9805a.d. amazing. it is obviously preserved... it's not quite anti—septic. preserved... it's not quite anti-septic. it has got a full honk! lovely to see that, fascinating stuff. still to come: carol has the
