6:04 am
will be transported down to london all of that information. in around ten minutes, for questioning in due course. we‘ll speak to sara thornton, chair of the national thanks very much. jon donnison for police chiefs council. the government is reportedly set us. to cut tariffs on the vast majority at 7:10am, we‘ll speak to sara thornton, chair of imports in the event of a no—deal brexit. of the national police steph is here with more details. chiefs council. let us know what you think about we said she has a busy day today, that story today, it is our main story throughout the programme. that story today, it is our main story throughout the programmem is an issue all week that we will talk about. lots to cover. the details on this, the government is reportedly set to cut tariffs on the vast majority of imports in the event it is all about examples, isn‘t it? of a no—deal brexit. yes, it is quite complicated, steph is here with more details. because we have lots of deals with different countries, and the premise of all of this is that the i think you will have a busy day today. welcome back to the sofa. government, if we leave the european what is the detail on this? this is to try to make sure we suddenly have to try to make sure we suddenly have union whether no deal on the 29th of to pay way more money for the things march, they want to make sure that we buy in this country which come from another country, that is suddenly all of the prices of the things we buy in this country that come from another don‘t go up. so, because with some countries there let me explain why they might go up. so, basically we have tariffs with are tariffs which we would have to some countries. that means they are charged, classed as attacks, really. they are charged a percentage if they sell products in this country. so, for example, if we have roses pay if we come out of the european
6:05 am
union with a no—deal brexit, because from tenure, they pay 10% to the it is explained with an example, so, say for example roses, we get them government of the cost as a fee for this, a tariff, and that, the reason from all over the world, countries we don‘t have a trade deal with, we had those tariffs is to try to like can you, will be charged 10% help own producers so that they can extra on the price of roses when make money themselves because we they come into this country because would much rather be able to produce we don‘t have a trade deal with them our own stuff and sell our own staff and that‘s the rule around roses, and that would be better for the economy. but obviously you don‘t 10% extra. the reason we have that wa nt to economy. but obviously you don‘t is try to help the producers in our want to put the tariffs too high because you don‘t want people... the own country to make sure that they prices of things we don‘t make here don‘t lose out from this to be really high and then we can‘t competition. because, of course, it is better for our economy is our afford them and that is bad for the producers are doing better and we make more stuff here and sell more here. so we do have trade deals with economy. so what we have at the some countries at the moment, but if moment is, if we leave the european we leave with no deal, then we will union with a no deal, we will fall to world trade organisation rules, which means all the tariffs for any products have to be set at the same revert to world trade organisation price. so, therefore, 10% from rules, and there is quite a lot of deals that haven‘t been sorted to rollover yet. when we leave the ca nyon price. so, therefore, 10% from canyon roses, that has to be the european union, and world trade same for ecuador as well. and all of organisation rules basically say the other places we might get roses that that harris would have to be from —— kenyan. and that is then in the same for every country until we get a trade deal in place. it is quite tricky to get your head around this, isn‘t it, with the details for it, and lots of different countries the future we might only pay 5%. so
6:06 am
have different deals. essentially, what it means is we will be starting from scratch. things. the government are worried suddenly we will have lots of things going up in price thatis the future we might only pay 5%. so that is what the government doesn‘t wa nt to that is what the government doesn‘t want to happen because then it would that we will bring into this go into chaos, if we leave with that no deal, so they are saying they are going to cut the tariffs on around country, so they want to cut the tariff on 80% to 90% of the 80 or 90% of the products that we products, that is the suggestion. import into this country. so there some products we will have the are somewhere they don‘t want to change the tariff because it could affect industries here in a negative ta riffs some products we will have the tariffs on. the point is we want to way. because we import may be part make sure we have products coming of the car industry, and it might be and that won‘t suddenly ramp up our tough for this, and you‘d have to prizes. so many issues, and we will pay more money for them. so it‘s speak with the business secretary about trying to make sure that we don‘t suddenly have these price rises. it‘s really complicated. every country has different deals. greg clark. and we will speak to him obviously we have deals with some. about measures to ensure that some are sorted to rollover when we workers‘ rights are protected after leave. some of them aren‘t. so it‘s brexit. government plans include really messy. it‘s kind of this protections for agency workers, thing of trying to make it as less parents and carers. theresa may says parliament should decide which rules are most appropriate, rather impactful on people‘s personal than automatically copying eu rules after britain leaves. trade unions have dismissed finances as possible. yes, because the assurances as meaningless. ultimately it comes down to how much people pay in the shops. you are speaking to the business secretary read clark at 8:10am on breakfast in about one hour. absolutely, speaking to greg clark about this.
6:07 am
thank you. measures to ensure workers‘ rights this morning —— greg. are protected after brexit millions of vulnerable people have been announced. government plans include could struggle to have easy access protections for agency workers, parents and carers. to coins and notes as we move theresa may says parliament should towards a cashless society. decide which rules are most the use of cards has increased appropriate, rather than automatically copying eu rules while a record number of cash after britain leaves. machines and bank branches trade unions have dismissed are closing, according to a new report. the access to cash review calls on the government to guarantee people are able to access money locally and ensure premises continue to accept it. our personal finance correspondent the assurances as meaningless. simon gompertz has more. just outside ipswich, a cashless pub, you have to pay by card or packages there were packages sent, smartphone, they save 15 hours a week not having to count the takings and drive them to the bank. we have carrying yellow bags, which appear greatly reduced the management time to create a small fire when open. spent dealing with catching up, also getting to the banks to get change, there has been eradicated, security millions of vulnerable people issues, so we have no, zero theft could struggle to have easy access to coins and notes as we move from either staff and/or robbers towards a cashless society. the use of cards has increased while a record number of cash coming in, and the insurance machines and bank branches are closing, according premiums are a lot lower. in ipswich to a new report. the access to cash review calls
6:08 am
on the government to guarantee itself, there is still the opposite, people are able to access money locally and ensure premises continue upon which only takes cash, and to accept it. plenty of people who don‘t want to do without it. i do window cleaning, slow ambulance response times to the most serious call outs so do without it. i do window cleaning, so you‘re dealing with a lot of cash. so i would say it would in rural areas in britain definitely be a problem. perhaps is putting lives at risk, a bbc investigation has found. maybe they are housebound and they in some rural communities, need someone to get something, give patients are waiting more than 20 them cash, because i don't think it minutes on average for help with cardiac arrests, seizures and major blood loss, is safe in these days to give your despite national targets of six ca rd is safe in these days to give your to eight minutes. card out. we are already seeing that john owen has more. the cash infrastructure is showing signs of collapsed. i don't think we ambulance service, is the patient have more than a couple of years breathing? when dealing with high—priority emergencies in a place like rural herefordshire the challenges can be considerable.” before something that's really liken it to playing a game of chess important to the uk, our ability to really in that you‘re constantly get cash and spend cash, is in serious jeopardy. this is about smoothing the transition to a world with hardly any notes or coins. the moving people around, trying to get boot pub is showing the way. the to the patients in the quickest possible time. for the most serious only cash you see here is the tips. response times by ambulances to critically ill patients are more emergencies, seconds count. figures than 50% slower on average in rural areas than in towns and cities, obtained by the bbc show that in
6:09 am
a bbc investigation has found. rural communities critically injured patients or patients with those in some rural communities life—threatening conditions like are waiting more than 20 minutes cardiac arrest wait an average of on average, compared to the national target time of six to eight minutes. four minutes longerfor the uk association of cardiac arrest wait an average of four minutes longer for an ambulance than patients in urban areas. time ambulance chief executives said the levels of demand that could mean the difference and the remoteness of some areas between a life saved and a life presented challenging lost. ambulances are supposed to attend the most serious category one emergencies in an average of seven circumstances for the service. minutes. and while in urban areas ambulance services often outperform the us singer, r kelly, that target, the bbc‘s analysis has angrily denied allegations found that in some rural areas the of sexual abuse during an interview on american television. average wait time is over 20 speaking to the cbs host, gayle king, the r&b star, minutes. anthony martial, chair of whose real name is robert sylvester kelly, insisted he was not guilty the association of ambulance chief of ten charges of aggravated sexual abuse against four alleged victims, executives, acknowledges that three of whom were under age. emergencies in rural areas are sometimes harder to reach quickly. in those examples it is important to is this camera on me? yes, it's on. that‘s stupid! understand the excellent services use your common sense. don‘t...forget the blogs, forget how you feel about me. that our control room staff deliver hate me if you want to, love me if you want, butjust use your common sense. to provide pre— arrival advice while

tough it was to climb everest, she about in your area of south—west london, what has worked? well, in was on the programme yesterday. who croydon, we have had a great wa nts to was on the programme yesterday. who wants to go first? you want me to increase in community engagement, so for my own organisation, we have monthly outreach meetings, that when start. so debenhams, we talked about them a lot, saying they have had a the community come, they bring the bit of a rough ride over the last young people. we have also conducted few years. the retailers warned on profits three times in the last research workshops where the police year. —— the retailer has warned. are held directly to account by parents and young people who have basically, when they put out a been inappropriately stopped, so it is possible, not impossible. if i profit warning, it means they are worried they are not going to make as much as they thought they were. can do it, that it can be done and i it is down in the 26 weeks to the think the community feels by having second of march, and it is facing a voice, they have a greater stake in what happens to them because at one of its biggest issues, lots of the end of the day, police and is retailers are talked about this in notjust the end of the day, police and is not just happen, it the past, they have got a big rent the end of the day, police and is notjust happen, it is an enforcer process over people and those people bill. they have £50 million meant had to be engaged with, they have to that the end of this month, as well give their comment to the way they as an increase in finance cost, so feel, they have to give their comments to the way that their busily putting pressure on debenhams children are interacted with. it is at the minute. it is interesting not a process in the air, this because we think about shops like process affects people of the sharpest end of the stick. what debenhams being there forever, they would you say to this then? because have been there for so long, they are of you are saying there is no have been there for so long, they a re really have been there for so long, they are really struggling. the traditional big chains are really difference to police numbers, it is irreleva nt to difference to police numbers, it is
6:20 am
struggling. and we talk about irrelevant to what is happening at waitrose and marks & spencer ‘s and on the ground, what role should the police be playing? -- on the ground. big chains on the high street, that is another one that really draws people into high—street. the police that are in position now should really be targeting and is another one that really draws working on how the officers engaged people into high-street. for some people, it is a big loss when with the, it is not enough tojust debenhams or a marks & spencer see young person. . . closes in your town because for some with the, it is not enough tojust see young person... you can put more of them, that might be your biggest department store. your member pick police on the street but who is going to go to them? we currently and mix? —— do you remember? have a problem of a wall of silence and somebody is stabbed. that is not going to change if the culture of department store. your member pick and mix? -- do you remember? you silence... sara, you have been never took a cola bottle out of the listening to what donna has been pick and mix? if my mum it seemed that, we would have been in all saying, it is about moving away from sorts of bother. we would never have the rest culture, so to speak, and gone to woolworths again. my opinion he has just changed dramatically. to having everyday engagement. so i would agree absolutely that it is well, it could not get much lower. a about local offices building new low. a picture of gareth bale, relationships with local communities, but the real difficulty who was having a really tough time is that we just have not got the at real madrid. we've been talking capacity or the numbers to do that ina way capacity or the numbers to do that about england's women winning the in a way that we would like to. i agree completely with the approach but my point is we just have not got

6:38 am
real‘s grip on the famous trophy has sister—in—law is a pancake queen. she had four different coloured finally been broken. pancake mixes, orange, blue, green and yellow and she put them in. all no such problems though for spurs, into one? yes, rainbow pancake, very they‘re the first english side nice. i am well beaten. thank you through to the quarter finals. hugo loris was in inspired form as they completed a dominant very much, sally. your welcome. two—leg win over borussia dortmund, harry kane with the only goal of the night, as they won 1—0 the time now is 7:38am, good morning to you. on the night, 4—0 on aggregate. imagine having perfect sight but not being able to recognise other people‘s faces — the effort was brilliant. even your relatives and close friends. that‘s the reality for people with prosopagnosia, also known as face blindness. it is a rare condition with playing, with the touch, which affects around one in 50 people in the uk. our wales correspondent jordan davies has been to meet the third leg in wembley, boo james, who has lived with face blindness all her life. and tonight, i think, unbelievable effort. i want to congratulate my players. meeting your partner in a coffee it was a good night for all of the players and for the club. shop should be a piece of cake, england won the first twenty20 but for boo james it against the west indies. can be a challenge. tom curran got four wickets she has face blindness, as the west indies set england 161 a condition which means she can‘t recognise people‘s to win in st lucia. faces, friends, family, even her own reflection. and it was curran who hit the winning runs, too, as england won by four wickets.
6:39 am
the second match is on tuesday. i have definitely been on a bus having someone waving at me, not knowing who it was, a major boycott is set to effect and then later discovering today‘s race meeting at lingfield. that was possibly my mother through conversation only 17 runners remain for the six and other such happenings, scheduled races with trainers so even close family are not safe. and owners calling for a boycott due to an ongoing row over prize money. three of the races will have just two runners. judd trump is through to the quarter—finals of the players championship. the masters champion was in devastating form as he whitewashed jimmy robertson it is difficult to describe how by six frame 2—0 in preston. those with the condition see faces. he‘ll meet jack lisowski in the last i can see the component parts of the face, i can see there is a nose, eight after he beat kyren wilson. i can see their eyes and a mouth and ears in various features, and loads of you will have been but it is very difficult for my brain to hold them all together as an image of a face. for example, i am looking flipping pancakes for shrove tuesday at your face now, but if i then turned away, i would find i had very little valid picture of what i have just seen. so if ijust showed you this person? — i know someone close to me now was — last night, no, no idea at all. but the former england and chelsea captain john terry‘s taken it one step further. can you tell me what maybe watch this. really? on his foot, you are picking up there? well, i can see he is an older gentleman, he has got those lines around the eyes. back into the pan. that needs to go
6:40 am
into the bin. it is less than five i think the eyebrows ought to be distinctive, seconds. it is just perhaps they are to other people. if i told you this was donald trump? into the bin. it is less than five seconds. it isjust a sock. sock fibres and everything.” oh really, so that is what he looks like? seconds. it isjust a sock. sock fibres and everything. i would definitely eat that. i don't think i could do that. i do have the five really interesting. thank you second rule, but with a pancake there is too much surface area and greece. what if it is someone else's so much for coming in today talking about this. we‘re joined now by boo james and also byjohn towler from swansea university, who is researching face blindness. ididn‘t foot? -- greace. not on your i didn‘t know this was something which affected one in 50 people. trainer, i have three cats, there boo, when did you first realise that would be further. important question this was an issue for you? it was of the day. you had multicoloured about ten years ago, i saw a feature pancakes? yes, we had four different food colouring, squeeze them onto similarto the pancake, have some fun. taking about ten years ago, i saw a feature similar to this on tv and recognised immediately, this is what happens to me in day—to—day life, therefore have i got this problem, which was it to another level. my sister—in—law is very creative. such a relief to know because before sadly, thank you very much. that is going to have the weather for us in that i thought i was a strange three orfour minutes. going to have the weather for us in three or four minutes. it is getting very springlike out there. yes. person and i had no account of the
6:41 am
sunshine peeking through. we did show you the papers earlier, quite a lot of them leading with this story. images of two of the packages way i was feeling this way in my containing explosive devices life. to find out it was a condition which were found at heathrow was quite comforting. i imagine that airport, london city airport made it easierfor those people and waterloo station yesterday have been circulated to mail sorting was quite comforting. i imagine that made it easier for those people who surround you, friends, family, offices and transport workers. collea g u es surround you, friends, family, colleagues as well, because they staff have been warned to be on high might have thought it was odd that you ignored someone perhaps that you alert and be extra vigilant knew. you know, in passing, simply for other suspicious packages. because you didn‘t recognise their all three parcels had an irish post face. i don't know if i've had that mark, according to police, who said the devices did not appear feedback. as you go through life, to be very sophisticated. you develop coping mechanisms and we‘re joined now by david lowe, you develop coping mechanisms and you hope that you will get most of who worked in counter—terrorism the time and get away with it. how during the northern ireland troubles, and is now can you win it with us after this at leeds beckett university. interview, say, you‘re here in the office and dan or i come out of the office, how would you win it in good morning. what did you make of terms of being able to make sure, hi this when you have heard this news ain? terms of being able to make sure, hi again? if you're both dressed coming out through the day? what exactly the same and with your glasses on, having just seen you, i we re coming out through the day? what were you thinking, who is behind might stand a chance of recognising this? i think to start with the met you again, that wouldn‘t be a did the right thing to start with problem in the short—term, but if i potential terrorist threat, it has walk past you in the street been interesting there is a tomorrow, or you‘re standing behind me at the checkout and you don‘t connection and the irish police are assisting at the moment, it is stuff i‘ve been working on recently since the good friday agreement. we have
6:42 am
had dissident groups on the republican side, now the new ira, have your glasses on, you have your amalgamation of the real ira, that hat on, i would probably end up is what it is being called? yes, the saying i have never seen you before in my life, famous, well—known or not, it doesn‘t seem to make a difference. so, short term a little new ira are different groups who bit i can manage, but long—term very difficult what do we know about the condition and how can we help people have formed together and they have a like boo to survive and not make group called sora, political party, those social faux pas brought about using the back stop in brexit as a by the condition? absolutely, so we potential for getting support. there are really interested in prosopagnosia for two reasons, was a car bomb in derry injanuary, scientifically because there are parts of the brain that we know are involved in face recognition and there have been shootings, but we those seem to not be working as well don‘t get this side of the irish sea, which is frustrating for me, but it might not be that. in people with prosopagnosia, so we investigations will be open—minded, are very interested in how specific they will look at anything, it could the conditions could be, so is it be someone with a grievance. they we re be someone with a grievance. they were not explosive devices. you saw the pictures, it sort of burnt the other types of objects as well? many envelope. is it a warning? people we see it seems tojust be a problem with face recognition, so potentially, certainly let‘s say one of the things people have been you‘ve got... the ordinance is so small. it would be an unpleasant asking me over the years i've been
6:43 am
surprise if you opened it. it is the message of, well, you can‘t be safe researching prosopagnosia is, ok, you have given me these tests, i all the time and that is the message can't recognise faces, is there anything we can do about it? so you want to get across, we are myself and my colleagues at swansea talking about it now and if it is a university have developed a training group then they have achieved what programme that we can use to train they want to achieve. in the past with bigger incidents of course people to make these fine there have been warnings, always, some sort of communication, and one discriminations between faces. so we are actually very excited to be rolling this out. so there is no of the suggestions is it isn‘t very cu re rolling this out. so there is no cure for it at the moment, you know, sophisticated. what is the next fixing the issue in the brain or the step? when do police or security pa rt fixing the issue in the brain or the part that isn‘t working, it is forces know it is ratcheting up?” coping mechanisms. boo, you have done this in life, haven‘t you? think you have to look at the device and look at the evidence and try to coping mechanisms. boo, you have done this in life, haven't you?m has been a lifetime‘s work, yes, not find a channel. if there is a realising that until ten years ago connection between a group. it could explained a lot of things. so what be for example. the three main would you do then in terms of what threats we face is the far right, would you do then in terms of what would you do then in terms of what would you advise boo to do? we can obviously islamist groups and talk about all of these sort of returning fighters, and the irish coping strategies, you know, a lot connection stop what you‘re talking about in terms of potential violence? yes, they are the three of it is about context, so if main threats and the three main
6:44 am
extremist threats that we are facing. so you look for that connection. once you‘ve got that connection, then you can make your someone has a particular hairstyle inquiries and focus on that. who will be security forces and police be speaking to? obviously there are or hair colour, that works if there contacts, channels of communication. is only one blonde woman called who will they be talking to in joanna in your office, because you know it is joanna, joanna in your office, because you know it isjoanna, but of joanna in your office, because you know it is joanna, but of course as soon as there are two blonde women response to this? obviously any in the office it would be very difficult for someone like boo to intelligence coming in, any tell which one is joanna. difficult for someone like boo to informants that they have, as well tell which one isjoanna. so the training programme that we have developed is really training the as the electronic side, surveillance skill that boo hasn't developed. records, go back and look at the data. and on top of that, you heard boo, can you give us an idea of some the guard helping, so if there is a connection the police service in northern ireland will be passing investigations on. so you can see of the situations you have found how big it is, trying to establish who it is. no—one has claimed yourself in, may be some examples, i responsibility. in ireland we were used to the coded message and then don‘t know whether you have either thought, i can‘t believe i have fallen into that trap, and managed some thing would happen and that was to get yourself out of that situation by some of the mechanisms a change with the islamist attacks, you have used ? situation by some of the mechanisms you have used? it is hard to choose we wouldn‘t get the coded warning. from a lifetime for me, because it there again, since the troubles, happens on a daily basis. it is perhaps easier to say, going into the local town into swansea city
6:45 am
things might have changed. in terms near where i live, constantly wondering whether i have walked pass of from this point on, it is about someone i know very well, it is hard to quantify how much of your life finding out where the threat is you have missed because you simply don‘t know whether you did know someone or not as you walked past. fascinating. let‘s say for example a member of your family, you spoke to them the day before, you spoke to them the day before, you spoke to coming from, who might be involved, them and you remember having that conversation, but you can‘t remember and is it a case of officers being it was that person, is that how it pulled in from other places if it works? i can give you an example, i becomes a major investigation?“ pulled in from other places if it becomes a major investigation? if it does, you‘ve got regional counter—terrorism unit and they will went to an event in cardiff one day all work together, there are 15 in the mat, then you‘ve got the south—east, the south—west, they will work together ——. and they will and the next day i was shopping start to pull information resources and take it from there. we need to be clear, though, these are three locally and it happened to be that small packages, because we don‘t same person who i hadn‘t known wa nt small packages, because we don‘t want anyone watching this morning in before was in the same shop, quite a a complete panic that we are going coincidence, but i didn‘t know that back to the days of the horrible until they came over to me and i was days. it is three small packages looking at them thinking, who are that appear to be so far under some sort of control and investigations you, i haven‘t seen you before in my are going on. and, as i said, it life, which is a phrase i often use, might not be a terror threat, but and explained that i saw you you can‘t scale up, you start with yesterday and i went, that‘s right, yes. i must stress it is not about the terror investigation, it is easy remembering, you can remember people to scale down. it might be someone you have seen, but you can‘t recognise people you have seen. it with a grievance against these is as if you can‘t unlock the door
6:46 am
airports. thank you very much. to knowing who the person is. boo, have you had this as long as you can really interesting. remember, since you were a child, while you are at school? yes. for as we said, that is on the front anyone watching right now, child or adult, parent concerned about their page of many of the papers this child, what do they do? if they think this might be them? it is so morning and one of the stories we ha rd to think this might be them? it is so are looking at the course the day. hard to define rather than saying you are just careless and you don‘t ca re you are just careless and you don‘t care about people, you can‘t be here‘s matt with a look at this morning‘s weather. bothered to remember. is there any good morning. good morning. i have thought that he might be happening, what should you do?” thought that he might be happening, what should you do? i think that to say it is not the prettiest start raising awareness of the condition like what we are doing today is of the day across most parts of the extremely important. in the first country. if you are heading out the door, let‘s give you the essential instance, there is some information bits and pieces you need to get you on the nhs choices website which is on the way. scotland with a frost a really good resource people can go but elsewhere, the temperature is chilly at around eight to 10 on and have a look at, and of course degrees. southern and eastern parts you can contact people at of england have particularly gusty winds, also an area of low pressure which brought in cloud to the night universities as well, so there are as well. heavy rain, two inches of researchers over the country who are very interested in this topic. people are doing work with children, rain across the hills of wales and teenagers, adults. if you recognise north—west england. this is where that you have this condition, please they will be persistent rain too much of the morning rush—hour, rain across eastern counties of england get in touch with us. and of course

imposition of tariffs, prices are going to go up. and what we these hairdresser, i passed my level to tariffs? well, these tariffs are butchery apprentice ship last year. there to protect domestic industry, i found it very useful being able to train while running the business, but the sad part is that prices go andl train while running the business, and i felt it would be good for me up but the sad part is that prices go upfor but the sad part is that prices go up for consumers when tariffs are imposed. so they are to help and i felt it would be good for me and any future apprentices that we ta ke and any future apprentices that we producers we have here, so what is take on. so there you go, some good it the government is suggesting? what will happen if we leave the no stories there and we have got more. deal? well, let's look at it from i‘m joined now by two apprentices, the point of view of the consumer. lindsey parr, a pub manager and sarah eley, a nursing assistant. as there is currently 50% of our thank you very much forjoining us, let me start with you, sarah, trade with the eu in this comes in tariff free, once we live on the because you have changed careers completely, used to work in an 29th of march, tallis will be imposed. what is this mean for the office. tell us about at. basically consumer? let‘s give the example of i worked in office for most of my working life, to about three years coffee. prices are going to go up, so how is it that prices are going ago, and at the age of 50 ijust had to go up. —— tariffs will be ago, and at the age of 50 ijust had a moment when i thought i want to do something for me, i want to do something for me, i want to do something worthwhile and that is imposed. we will enjoy a coffee and what i did. i went for an interview this has made from roasted coffee for a nursing apprentice ship and beans, which comes in at zero thatis for a nursing apprentice ship and that is what i am currently studying ta riffs beans, which comes in at zero tariffs under the current arrangement that after we brexit, in eventually, i hope to end up with a nursing degree. and of course, we roasted coffee beans will come in at need more nurses so that is

7.596 roasted coffee beans will come in at brilliant. what was it like actually 7.5% tariff. now, the coffee that we buy today in a coffee shop is £2.17, deciding to an apprenticeship? wheeler bit scared, did you know enough much about them?m the same coffee is going to cost me wheeler bit scared, did you know enough much about them? it was a bit daunting going back to education after a number of years, but yeah, daunting going back to education £2.8. so effectively, i am aftera number of years, but yeah, i have really thoroughly enjoyed it the same coffee is going to cost me £2.8. so effectively, iam paying 10p more for every coffee i buy. —— and it has really thoroughly changed my life. and here as well, you're kind of climbing you wasted the different levels of apprenticeship. £2.70. the government is basically lam. trying to make sure that prices do different levels of apprenticeship. i am. what is good about them, why not go up and that it is able to is at work for you? well, it works for me because i work, so you get to protect domestic household budgets, because remember, this is going to have an impact on household budgets. it is not only coffee, it will apply work full—time as well is doing an apprenticeship, i am a mother of to cereals that we have for brea kfast to cereals that we have for breakfast every morning, tea, three, i have been able to work full—time, plus the marmot, plus flowers, fruits and vegetables, dubai apprenticeships and in two wine, chocolates, everything is going to face a tariff after we years once i finish my level five, should then be able to go towards brexit. so they're obviously when we being an area manager while the kids are growing up. so it is getting talk about business decisions, there are winners and losers, this is not good news for some people though, is either qualifications to be able to essentially be promoted ? it, the fact that we could see a either qualifications to be able to essentially be promoted? yeah, reduction in tariffs because it absolutely. and sarah, didn't fit makes it harder for our domestic
6:53 am
producers, the farmers and with your life? obviously, there manufacturers here? yes, that is must have been a change of money and right. effectively what is going to things like that. obviously, it is a happen is that domestic producers would face fierce competition from bit of a for mental struggle, to be cheaper imports, so this means our honest, to start with, but you do produce is going to go down and they get a convocation of the end of it are going to bejob and you do not end up with a lot of produce is going to go down and they are going to be job losses and produce is going to go down and they debts, which you do at university. are going to bejob losses and job losses are happening, and now people knew more aboutjob losses and this —— financial struggle. is going to gain speed in the days debts, which you do at university. -- financial struggle. there were to come after brexit. what you think plenty of people who got into that the government are doing this? -- had me yesterday saying i would like to have an apprenticeship, i do not even know where to look for them or why do you think? the tariffs? yeah, anything. how have you known what to do? well, it to be fair, because i the cutting of the tariff. well, the work for greene king, they are cutting of the tariffs is basically really keen on pushing people to do, to make sure that domestic household budgets are not squeezed. look at it so going hand—in—hand with the apprentice ship 's is promotion this way, there is another thing usually, so it is about, with me i that the government is signalling, have got that team who have done the government is basically signalling that it is an open economy, it is willing to do trade friendships with me. zero being the with other countries with zero next cohort through? and out of ta riffs with other countries with zero tariffs and it does not believe in those 43, 26 are being promoted to protectionism. sangeeta, thank you very much for your time. she is an be kitchen managers, one has gone on to bea be kitchen managers, one has gone on to be a trainer. -- so you. for me,

7:02 am
our reporterjon donnison is outside the home office where today‘s meeting will take place. jon, judging by what we heard from sara thornton on this programme, it is going to be quite a tasty meeting, this one. it is, it is due to get under way, we understand, in just over an hour‘s time, sajid javid meeting with police chiefs from seven forces, those worst affected by knife crime in england and wales, including the west midlands, greater manchester, south yorkshire, west yorkshire, and of course london. and all this comes at a time when there is a bit of a row going on about the link between a fall in police numbers and a rise in violent crime. the number of police officers in england and wales has dropped by more than 20,000 since 2010, and yesterday the metropolitan police commissioner, cressida dick, saying there was a clear link
7:03 am
between that fall in police numbers and a rise in violent crime. she said anyone could say that. well, not apparently the prime minister, theresa may, who says there is no direct correlation between the two. as you say, early on breakfast we heard from sara thornton, chair of the national police chiefs‘ council, who will be at that meeting just over an hour‘s time. who will be at that meeting just over an hour's time. we will be meeting with the secretary this morning, the forces most affected by serious violence, and we will be talking about what needs to be done now. we think it needs to be treated as if it was an emergency. when you have an emergency, you get the key people around the table to solve the problem. we think that needs to be done, setting up cobra with a senior minister, holding people to account, because it is notjust about policing, it is all the other agencies and organisations that have an important part to play. sara thornton there. sajid javid, the
7:04 am
home secretary, is a piece in the daily telegraph this morning, where he says that knife crime is a disease, he says he has listened to the concerns of senior police officers about the number of officers about the number of officers on the streets and cuts to police funding, but he says that police funding, but he says that police funding, but he says that police funding is at a record high. and mikejon, thank you very much, we will cover that story for you on the bbc news channel. we are also talking to business mr greg clark about tarot cards, but also knife crime, that is about five minutes away. —— business minister. the government is reportedly set to cut tariff charges, on up to 90% of imports, in the event of a no—deal brexit. tariffs are the charges imposed on goods which cross borders in the absence of a free trade arrangement. the charges are expected to remain for sensitive sectors including cars, textiles, beef, lamb and diary products. the cuts would be intended to protect consumers from price rises. the government says it will make an announcement once a decision is finalised.
7:05 am
detectives in ireland are assisting british counterterrorism officers investigating a number of small explosive devices sent to locations in london. the packages were found yesterday at heathrow airport, london city airport and waterloo station. the a4—sized white postal bags contained yellow envelopes which appeared capable of igniting a small fire when opened. two of the packages had irish postmarks. millions of people will struggle to access coins and notes as we move towards a cashless society. the use of cards has increased, while a record number of cash machines and bank branches are closing, according to a new report. it calls on the government to guarantee that people are able to access money locally. cash is now only used for three in ten transactions, which is down by half over the last decade. what doesn‘t surprise me is that it is down by half, because of co nta ctless is down by half, because of contactless and the ease of cards,
7:06 am
but when you have a chat with your mates, we were chatting earlier about how infrequently we now use cash. i always keep it on me, just in case. just in case, it is not a necessity. imike you just in case, it is not a necessity. i mike you can survive quite easily without using it. shame, though! other news to bring you: response times by ambulances to critically ill patients are more than 50% slower on average in rural areas than in towns and cities, a bbc investigation has found. those in some rural communities are waiting more than 20 minutes on average, compared to the national target time of six to eight minutes. the uk association of ambulance chief executives, said the levels of demand and the remoteness of some areas presented "challenging circumstances" for the service. the use of facial recognition technology is being trialled in prisons to help identify visitors smuggling drugs and mobile phones to inmates. the system has already been put to use at one prison in yorkshire whilst elsewhere two other uk jails have been using biometric technology to identity documents and scan irises. our home affairs correspondent
7:07 am
danny shaw reports. using the latest technology in prisons to stop drugs being smuggled in. this is a demonstration by a prison officer of an iris scanner. it was piloted at hmp lindholm in south yorkshire to check the identity of visitors. and this is facial recognition technology trialled at humber prison. the cameras could help support people with fake identities and flag those making repeat visits, bringing contra band in for different prisoners. some visitors at humber turned back in case they were caught. they have come in, they have seen the new system, they have seen that it is all photographs and face watch, and they have just walked away and not gone through the booking. although the vast majority of prison visits are genuine, intelligence work has identified it as a key route for bringing in drugs
7:08 am
and ministers say that biometric systems they have piloted could be the solution. they are working in terms of identifying people who shouldn‘t be visiting prisons. they are also acting as a deterrent to those who shouldn‘t be visiting prisons. so the evidence does point to that, and if that continues to be the case as we go on, then i think that is something that we will see more widely used. technology has also been used to verify id documents, but penal reformers say it may miss the point. they say highly trained staff and purposeful prisons are the best way to cut drugs and violence. the us singer r kelly has angrily denied allegations of sexual abuse during an interview on american television. speaking to the cbs host gayle king, the r&b star, whose real name is robert sylvester kelly, insisted he was not guilty of ten charges of aggravated sexual abuse against four alleged victims, three of whom were under—age. is this camera on me?
7:09 am
yes, it‘s on. that‘s stupid! use your common sense. don‘t... forget the blogs, forget how you feel about me. hate me if you want to, love me if you want, butjust use your common sense. how stupid would it be for me to, with my crazy past and what i‘ve been through, "oh, right now ijust think i need to be a monster and hold girls against their will"?! r kelly speaking to gayle king there. matt will have the all—important weather in five or six minutes, and sally will be back with a round—up of the sport, really good news for england‘s women‘s football is, and big news from the champions league. but let‘s return to one of our top stories. measures to protect workers‘ rights after the uk leaves the eu have been outlined by the government. the plans include ensuring employees have a work—life balance, paid leave for parents and carers, and predicatable shift patterns. we‘re joined now from westminster by
7:10 am
the business secretary, greg clark. thank you very much for talking to us this morning, good morning to you. we have so much to talk about, but let‘s definitely please start with workers‘ rights, regarding their status after brexit, tell me what is new, what didn‘t we know that we are now talking about? what is happening when we leave the european union is all of the existing rights that are part of european law will get transferred to uk law, and we‘ve got a really good record, we are one of the leaders in europe for not just record, we are one of the leaders in europe for notjustjobs, we have record levels of employment, but also things like maternity leave, we are one of the most generous, appropriately, countries in europe for that. but some people have asked, once we have left, how can we be sure that these tim vaughan will not decline? and so what we are doing is introducing into law two things. one is, whenever there is a
7:11 am
new piece of legislation on workers‘ rights in this country, there will need to be an assessment as to whether it downgrades our rights, there is no intention to do so, but it will need to be certified to parliament so that they could stop that if they wanted to do. and secondly, over time, as the european union adopts new measures, some of those weight may want to adopt ourselves, and so, again, there is a new european law, , ourselves, and so, again, there is a new european law,, it will be reported to the uk parliament, parliament will have a debate, the government will have to make a recommendation as to whether we want to ta ke recommendation as to whether we want to take it on, and that will be subject to a vote in parliament. thank you for explaining that, but my question was, what is new? i thought all of that was in the withdrawal agreement anyway. no, it is not. one of the things that the prime minister has said is once we leave the european union, we will
7:12 am
continue to be a leader in workers‘ rights, and we have had no intention of dilating them, but people in the house of commons have said, ok, that is an assurance, but how can we turn that into something concrete, so that into something concrete, so that it that into something concrete, so thatitis that into something concrete, so that it is valid for years into the future? and so in response to some suggestions actually from the other side of the house of commons, we have said, ok, we can see that insurance would be appropriate to give, and so this mechanism to make sure that parliament has a clear say is going to be introduced, and i think that is a good step, a pragmatic step to really underline this commitment has been given, but it now entrenches that in parliament. ok, as i said, lots to talk about with a minister and the programme, we definitely want to get through some things. trade tariffs,
7:13 am
the government may cut tariffs on 80-90% of the government may cut tariffs on 80—90% of goods in the event of a no—deal brexit, what more can you tell me about these proposals?“ no—deal brexit, what more can you tell me about these proposals? if we we re tell me about these proposals? if we were to leave without a deal, which i certainly don‘t want, but if we did, we would have to change the ta riffs did, we would have to change the tariffs that we impose on other countries. at the moment, and import from the european union without tariffs, but if we leave without a deal, you would not be able to do that just for the european union, you would have to extend to other countries around the world. or if you didn‘t do that, if you kept the ta riffs you didn‘t do that, if you kept the tariffs that you put on other countries, you would have to put ta riffs countries, you would have to put tariffs against trade with the rest of the eu. now, that is a very difficult choice, because either you are making things more expensive that were previously coming in tariff free from the eu, or, in some
7:14 am
cases, some industries, like the ceramics industry, for example, that is subject to a lot of very cheap, and fairly cheap imports from china, that could undermine the industry. —— unfairly cheap imports from china, that could undermine the industry. so there are difficult choices to be made, the first thing is to leave with a deal so we do not have that problem, but, secondly, we will have to set that out if we do leave without a deal, we‘ll have to make that choice for different industries. i am a bit confused. so if these tariffs are dropped or reduced by 80—90%, where is the incentive for anyone to make any trade deals with us? well, that is another reason why it is not a good thing to have to do this... it is still being put down as an option, isn‘t it? if you say it is not a good deal, why would anyone bother making a deal, so why is it an
7:15 am
option in the event of no—deal? it is looking likely. so the alternative, if you don‘t drop ta riffs alternative, if you don‘t drop tariffs in a wide range of sectors to zero, then you have to impose them on imports from the european union, and, you know, there are areas in which we import a lot of our components, for example, from the european union, so they would then become more expensive, and the competitiveness of british industry and thejobs competitiveness of british industry and the jobs that depend on it would decline. so it is one of these choices that, either way, decline. so it is one of these choices that, eitherway, is decline. so it is one of these choices that, either way, is pretty undesirable, but we would have to do that if we didn‘t have a deal, and it is one of the reasons why, i think, it is in everyone‘s interest to agree a deal, because, as i say, no—one wants to make imports much more expensive from the european union, or to reduce that ability to
7:16 am
negotiate trade deals.” union, or to reduce that ability to negotiate trade deals. i want to talk to you about knife crime, you will be very aware, it is in all the papers and has been for weeks, months, years now, many parents you would have heard, very distressed by what is happening, many saying they are too scared to have their children out on the streets at the moment because they do not know what is going to happen. as the issue comes to the fore, we know that sajid javid will be meeting with heads of the police force most affected by violent crime — we spoke to sara thornton earlier on this programme, and we spoke to her about what she thinks needs to be done right now. i just what she thinks needs to be done right now. ijust want what she thinks needs to be done right now. i just want to what she thinks needs to be done right now. ijust want to play what she thinks needs to be done right now. i just want to play you what she thinks needs to be done right now. ijust want to play you a clip of herfrom right now. ijust want to play you a clip of her from the interview earlier and get your reaction. clip of her from the interview earlier and get your reactionm clip of her from the interview earlier and get your reaction. it is an emergency, and it needs some emergency funding. we need to have more officer hours on the streets, we know what tactics work, about targeting hot spots, using stop and search, about tackling county lines
7:17 am
gangs, but we just haven't got the capacity, we haven't got the office rs capacity, we haven't got the officers at the moment, so we need some money now to pay for overtime, to pay for mutual aid between forces. sara thornton speaking to us there. there is an emergency, she says it needs emergency funding, a cobra meeting with a senior minister present to tackle this right now — not next week, not next month, right now. what can be done today? well, the first thing, naga, i think eve ryo ne the first thing, naga, i think everyone recognises that for the family and friends of that young people that have been attacked and killed in this way, it is completely appalling, they are devastated and absolutely they want to see a robust and effective response. i have great respect for sara thornton and the met commissioner, cressida dick, was

speaking yesterday. i think what is being convened today by the home secretary is the right thing, to bring the people that really have the experience and expertise round the experience and expertise round the table to address what i think eve ryo ne the table to address what i think everyone acknowledges is a complex set of issues. there is not one single cause, but that complexity means that everyone does have to pull together and work together... let‘s ta ke pull together and work together... let‘s take out the complexity and just say, the chair of the national police chiefs‘ council comes on national television, ahead of a major meeting between the home secretary and the seven police chiefs, and says, we need a cobra meeting with a senior minister attending a cobra meeting, and i can tell you this, i have interviewed a lot of people — sara thornton was furious, and especially when i put to her that theresa may says there is no direct link between reduced numbers of police and knife crime.
7:19 am
listen, i am numbers of police and knife crime. listen, iam not numbers of police and knife crime. listen, i am not going to gainsay the experience of someone with the career and ability that sara thornton has. she is taking the evidence that she has and the result of her long experience into a meeting which all of the responsible policymakers from the police, from government, from local government will be there to produce an action, a set of actions that will be firm on that, and it is right that she ta kes on that, and it is right that she takes that recommendation into that. iam not takes that recommendation into that. i am not an expert in this, it is right that she should be part of that meeting with the others, and i think, you know, wherever you are in the country, whether you are in government, whether you are in the police, whether you are in communities, there has to be a recognition... there is a danger of a breakdown, this is what i see, a
7:20 am
danger of a breakdown between government and at least theresa may and those who, when she says there is no direct link between reduced numbers of police and knife crime, and then the head of police, cressida dick, saying there is an undeniable link, and someone like sara thornton on this programme, who is obviously furious at the fact that these issues are not being recognised. it looks like they could bea recognised. it looks like they could be a breakdown here. quite the reverse , be a breakdown here. quite the reverse, when this has been discussed in government, there is an absolute recognition of the urgency and importance of these, and it can only be solved by people coming together. i am sure sara thornton and cressida dick and others would acknowledge, they do acknowledge that there are multiple factors that lead to this. i think it is the right thing to have this high—level
7:21 am
meeting today, but it is a meeting that i know is very much intended to produce a set of actions that will be implemented, that will take effect, and turn this round, and that has to be something that those of us that are not experts in this field, we must look to, and i think you see this happening, people with the experience and expertise come together to work together to solve this. greg clark, business secretary, thank you very much for your time on breakfast this morning, thank you. we area thank you. we are a little late for the weather, but important questions put to the business secretary, i know you wanted better pictures, sorry... they say grey as grey can be, and a picture is not great either! i don‘t know if i want to do it now, to be honest! they are lovely, really! a soggy start for some, rain and
