6:04 am
night was a little bit of a to charlie and nina. political tremor, not an earthquake. bye for now. brexit party had a high hopes of winning a seat but they failed to do it and history is written by the winners. so had nigel farage pip did good morning. there would have been huge momentum behind his party and more pressure welcome to breakfast with on the conservative leadership to charlie stayt and nina warhurst. our headlines today: leave the european union by october. labour has seen off a strong challenge but now that labourjust by nigel farage's brexit party to win the peterborough by—election with a slim majority. leave the european union by october. but now that labour just snuck leave the european union by october. but now that labourjust snuck home by 600 odd votes it takes the pressure to jeremy corbyn by 600 odd votes it takes the the conservatives are pressure tojeremy corbyn because people at his party want to argue knocked into third place on the day theresa may formally stands down from for a referendum under all leadership of the party. overdrafts overhauled. circumstances and there is a quote from him this morning that effectively he says that people are banks are banned from charging interested in issues other than fixed fees and adding extra cost for unauthorised loans. accept such as the shape of their it's a great day to be in paris. in a fewjust a few hours, life after this election, things johanna konta plays for a place in the final of the french open bigger than the main issue demanding at roland garros. british attention. but the liberal
6:05 am
democrats quadrupled their share of while they may the vote so it is possible that some then they may this evening pro remain labour supporters may the women's world cup kicks off have defected temporarily at least at the parc des prince as the hosts france take on south korea. towards an avowedly perrault remain england play scotland on sunday. and in the build up to that big party. and for theresa may it is a first match for our home sides, we're with young fans in liverpool and glasgow. it will be a case of four seasons in significant day and it seems to be slightly... it is disappearing in the mix of what is happening in one day, wet and windy weather politics. but she was not being the working up from the south, heavy leader of the conservative party today. that is correct. after less showers and thunderstorms are likely. i will have all the details than three years in the job, a bit in about 15 minutes. it's friday the 7th ofjune. longer than gordon brown but she is our top story. labour has narrowly won standing down as leader, temporarily the peterborough by—election — seeing off a strong challenge continuing as prime minister until from the new brexit party, there is a replacement. sometimes in which came a close second. politics when luck goes with you you nigel farage's party lost by just 683 votes, can almost do anything to my lung pushing the conservatives four theresa may she has seen the into third place. reserve that mike refers. she was the liberal democrats were fourth. iain watson has the drama unable to deliver brexit and her from the night, his report contains flashing images. last day in office is overshadowed by the fact that the conservatives a result that seemed came third here. and they will draw to be on a knife—edge. and i do hereby declare that their own lessons and how they can lisa forbes is duly elected... avoid this. one big lesson they are
6:06 am
cheering and applause but it was labour that cut through. likely to draw is simply this — a narrow victory over because labour sniggered home and the brexit party, a majority of 683, with the conservatives the brexit party failed to win than in third place. the brexit party failed to win than the result seemed to be the one thing perhaps the next on a knife—edge all night. leader of the party should do after sometimes the brexit party felt they were ahead, theresa may is avoid a general sometimes it was labour. election at all costs. thank you very much. if you want to join labour supporters are delighted that they've held on to this seat, election at all costs. thank you very much. if you want tojoin in the fun run behind you, just go for although their vote has tumbled since the last general election. it, that's what i say. no chance. this a seat that used to be a two—horse race between labour not a chance. that did not go down and the conservatives. tonight it was a two—horse race between labour and the brexit party. well. they are delighted that that did not go down well. they came out in front. preparing for brexit has cost the uk brexit party supporters had high government £97 million so far, hopes but their leader, according to the nigel farage, kept a low profile. national audit office. it was neck and neck, labour won by despite the cabinet office saying only £65 million had been earmarked for spending. they say money had a few hundred votes and we are the new kids on the block and only formed eight weeks ago today. it was a big showing. it was a two horse race, us against labour. been hiring external consultants six out of ten voters backed brexit because the government departments here in the referendum but, lack the necessary staff. in the end, just too few rallied
6:07 am
women who experience domestic abuse to the new party. are three times more likely the new labour mp put her victory to develop a serious mental illness, down to not banging on about brexit. according to researchers at birmingham university. data collected it did come up but not as much anonymously by doctors people think it might have done. also suggests the scale of domestic violence is hugely under—recorded. they care about being able to get lauren moss has more. a gp appointment, you know, it is described as an insidious the fly—tipping and the litter that's all over the community, the police, the lack crime that affects one in four women of police on the streets, drug dealing happening in england and wales. now new without fear of being caught. these are all the issues that people in peterborough spoke to me research suggests that domestic about and this is why abuse is not only unrecorded by i was campaigning on those issues. doctors, but victims are also three so labour hung on in peterborough, times more likely to develop a but a new party campaigning mental illness. we know that over on brexit has made a big impression butjust not enough to secure half of women have experienced the first brexit party mp. iain watson, bbc news, peterborough. physical or sexual violence will meet the diagnostic criteria for psychiatric disorder. that can range ian is in peterborough. we wouldn't normally give so much attention to a from ptsd to serious mental health by—election but this is an extraordinary time. what conclusions conditions. domestic abuse was do we draw from what happened last recorded in just conditions. domestic abuse was recorded injust 0.5% conditions. domestic abuse was recorded in just 0.5% of more than 90,000 anonymous patient records, night? it is an extraordinary time, far lower than crime fingers indicate. researchers say this could charlie and that is why we are focusing on this so much because
6:08 am
be the tip of the iceberg and are brexit was not delivered when the calling for a better screening conservative government said it process. one of the reasons why this piece of work is so important is would leading to the creation of an entirely new party. the brexit party with significant underreporting, gps and health professionals and primary ca re can and health professionals and primary care can do a lot to support we re entirely new party. the brexit party were led by nigel faraj who competed survivors of domestic abuse and this ina were led by nigel faraj who competed in a seat where six out of ten could possibly bring them a huge people voted to leave the european cohort of women with a serious unmet union —— farage. the assumption was mental health need who we could support. the royal college of gps say doctors are highly trained to that he could make a breakthrough understand the signs of domestic abuse but often it can be well and put conservatives under pressure hidden. earlier this year the and put conservatives under pressure and produce a new leader and also on government published its draft domestic violence bill. charities british politics more generally, hope that these findings could over brexit but to some extent influence future policy and raise awareness about the women suffering momentum is everything in politics, so it's interesting that he fell in silence who may not have been getting the help they really need. short and in the wider debate, why did it happen, he would say that labour are better organised on the ground and his party is very young the world health organization is warning that humanity is entering and from the labour point of view, a ‘new phase', where large outbreaks their analysis that they talked of deadly diseases like ebola are becoming normal. about wider issues than brexit and it says greater effort needs to be made to prepare for epidemics, people were taking about decisions made more likely by climate change
6:09 am
and large, mobile populations. the american singer about their own communities and and musician, drjohn, voted for many reasons other than has died of a heart brexit and perhaps the brexit party talked about wider issues like euro attack at the age of 77. elections might not fare too well in the way that the liberal democrats quadrupled their vote picking up the he was an influential member of the new orleans music scene, votes of those who wanted to and created a unique blend of blues, avowedly remain in the european pop and psychedelic rock that union. you cannot draw straight won him six grammy awards. he had an american top ten hit in 1973 with "right place, conclusions and it did look as though it was absolutely ideal, but wrong time". then labour held on with a candidate tributes have been paid by the likes who barely wanted to talk about of debbie harry and ringo starr. brexit at all. a lot of people for fans of one of britain's best loved sitcoms there could be in a ‘cushty‘ deal on the table. remember theresa may's emotional only fools and horses memorabilia — announcement she would resign as leader of the conservative party. including one of del boy's that day is today, so what happens? flat—caps, uncle albert's war medal and david jason's script from a christmas special — it was a very emotional announcement andi it was a very emotional announcement and i don't think they will get a will go under the hammer in bristol repeat of that. she stands down as today and organisers are expecting conservative leader today but she remains prime minister until a a lovely jubbly turnout. replacement has been chosen by the end ofjuly and i think already the
6:10 am
focus is moving to who that might be only full—time horses is extremely popular and we have had interest all and whether the result in corners of country. it is one of peterborough might embolden those who stand for a no—deal brexit, or those things that is uniquely british. normally with famous tv whether others will say, hang on a items we get interest from all over minute, the last thing we need to the world but this is very, very british. we have had interest from see is labour winning against the edinburgh, there was a chap from odds and the prospect of a general election and they must try to hold spain who phoned up asking questions. it is a very, very the party together, but this result quintessentially british sense of has a huge influence but sometimes humourandi quintessentially british sense of humourand i think quintessentially british sense of humour and i think it appeals to people in this country more than ina has a huge influence but sometimes in a departure in politics it's very worldwide. difficult to get it back and she do you fancy any of that leaves on the day that her party memorabilia? i'm not normally came third in a seat where they had interested in memorabilia but i know the mp until 2017. there will be many people who would love some of those items. there will be many people who would love some of those itemslj there will be many people who would love some of those items. i might put ina love some of those items. i might put in a bid for the plastic pineapple. good morning, pat sally. preparing for brexit has cost the uk government £97 million so far, joining us from paris this morning. despite the cabinet office saying only 65 million had been good morning, everyone. yes where i earmarked for spending. that's according to the national audit office, it says the money has been spent on hiring external consultants am! we are in paris this morning and because government departments lack the staff needed.
6:11 am
women who experience domestic abuse i must say, sorry, on days like this are three times more likely to develop a serious mental illness, according to researchers i absolutely love my job. at birmingham university. data collected anonymously by doctors also suggests the scale i must say, sorry, on days like this i absolutely love myjob. i don't of domestic violence ca re i absolutely love myjob. i don't care that i get up at half p3 in is hugely under—recorded. lauren moss has more. morning because this is glorious. momentous day it will be here. we have the women's world cup kicking off tonight, of course and that will be live on bbc one. france takes on it is described as an insidious crime that affects one in four women in england and wales. now new research suggests that south korea and it is the eighth domestic abuse is not only unrecorded by doctors, time the tournament has been held but victims are also and almosti three times more likely time the tournament has been held and almost i million time the tournament has been held and almosti million tickets have been sold. england play scotland in to develop a mental illness. nice on sunday. united states are we know that over half of women that have experienced physical or sexual the reigning champions and joint favourites with france. violence will meet the diagnostic criteria for at least one mental health disorder. two dreadful defending mistakes cost england's men in their nations league that can range from stress semi—final last night. firstjohn stones then ross barkley and anxiety to ptsd to serious handed extra time goals mental health conditions. to the netherlands who won 3—1 in portugal. it's a huge day forjohanna konta. she plays czech teenager marketa vondrousova domestic abuse was recorded in just in the semi—finals of 0.5% of more than 90,000 the french open right here in paris. if she wins, she'll be the first anonymous patient records, far lower than crime figures indicate.
6:12 am
british woman to make the final since sue barker won it in 1976. researchers say this could be the tip of the iceberg and are calling for a better screening process. one of the reasons why this piece and there was a great win for england over the west indies of work is so important is with such in theirfirst women's significant underreporting, gps and health professionals international one—dayer. and primary care can do a lot england won by 208 runs — that's their biggest ever winning to support survivors of domestic margin in this format of the game. abuse and this could possibly mean then a huge cohort of women with a serious unmet mental health need who we could support. it is an unbelievably busy day and i the royal college of gps say doctors are highly trained to understand the signs of domestic abuse but often it can be well hidden. don't know if you can tell, it is earlier this year the government raining horizontally at the moment published its draft so raining horizontally at the moment so don't be too jealous of me. your domestic violence bill. charities hope that these findings hair is still perfect, though. you could influence future policy are managing well. and joy paris. and raise awareness about the women suffering in silence who may not have been getting you know what? there is no hairspray the help they really need. on earth that will withstand this. we will see,. time now to take a look at the weather closer to home and sarah has the details for us. rainstorms in paris with a day washed out yesterday. how does it
6:13 am
look here? all that rain and the wind they saw what are the changes to overdrafts in paris is pushing northwards i'm and why are they necessary? the afraid so we are in for some turbulent weather over the next question is about when you go couple of days. not a particularly whether headline for you today. overdrawn, as millions do, 19 million people have an authorised heavy rain and strong and gusty wind overdraft where you agree with the bank that you can go overdrawn by up and later in the day we expect to see some thundery showers developing to £500 or £1000 and 14 million as well. very unsettled weather on the cards, down to this deep area of people go unauthorised overdrawn low pressure. that pressure across where the bank is not approved it parts of spain, and france works its beforehand and it's the charges affiliated to these and the way across the english channel and moves in from the south. we already regulator has been looking at this have heavy rain this morning across saying it's not clearfor customers parts of southern england and south and it's not fare as well so the big wales, gusty wind associated with this initial band operated further changes you might see, if you go overdrawn and it's not approved by the bank, you might see a daily north not a bad start for scotland charge of £5 a day or £2 a day and and northern ireland with sunshine through the day and a little cloud they have banned those fees, so no over later in the day. that rain works northwards and the wind will be picking up as well with gusts more fixed fees on overdrafts and no much higher than this. later in the difference in the charge between day, heavy and thundery showers moving across the south coast going overdrawn authorised or initially pushed their way un—authorised and when that kicks in northwards and temperatures today are only around 15— i8 in april next year the knock—on
6:14 am
effect will be quite big for northwards and temperatures today are only around 15— 18 degrees so that will not feel pleasant, particularly where you have cloud, customers whether you are overdrawn rain and strong wind. talking a or not. so simplification and strong wind, let's do men across clarification for consumers, but south wales and southern england what will it mean for banks? into the rush hour this evening presumably some are reliant on the where wind could reach 40—50 miles income they will lose. the figures an hour combined with heavy and are quite big. £2.5 billion, they thundery showers so there could be hailand thundery showers so there could be hail and surface water flooding made in 2017 on overdrafts and a because the ground is quite dry and third of that was on unauthorised we have heavy rain. may be about 15— overd rafts and third of that was on unauthorised overdrafts and it's often those on millimetres injust one we have heavy rain. may be about 15— millimetres in just one or two the lowest incomes that end up hours. into the evening hours and paying those unauthorised charges. tonight as the pressure drifts so the banks are making a lot of northwards the main brand that make money out of it and they will either band of rain pushes in. still some have to adjust what they charge for the overdraft and the regulator when we spoke to them earlier was not heavy showers elsewhere lingering fully clear that you wouldn't see through the night but they should tend to ease in intensity. it will charges go up but they will keep a close eye on it. if it is really not be a cold night and temperatures clear they hope people will switch if they are overdrawn and it will are generally in double figures. saturday stance on that unsettled make it a competitive market and windy note with some rain around on bring costs down. how low might the saturday, not quite as heavy as the charges go question what you're rain we saw today. for much of talking about £5 or £2, but what are scotla nd we looking at? they have given the rain we saw today. for much of scotland and northern ireland, wales and central parts of england,
6:15 am
outbreaks of rain. heavy thundery example today that if you go showers rain developing for the overdrawn, unauthorised by £100, north—eastern parts of england. really strong wind as well to dust that will cost you about a fiver a day and they hope that the changes means it will drop to 20p per day could reach 40 or 50 mile—per—hour especially in the south but it will because charges will have to be bea dry especially in the south but it will be a dry day for southern england reduced to be in line with and south wales on saturday, temperatures still not great for authorised charges and if it's more this time of year. pressure competitive they think it will bring prices down but a lot of this will eventually d rifts this time of year. pressure eventually drifts off towards the north—east as we head into the be watch and wait and see and do second half of the weekend so sunday will be a better day, not as windy. what you want with the overdraft still some rain around with showers charges. and when does that kick in? initially across the north—western parts of the uk and later in the day april 2020. there's been a dog we see showers develop more widely outside putting me off all morning. across parts of wales, south—east it's coming in later. that's why england, northern ireland as well. it's here. there is a reason. we are further east, dry with more sunshine and we could see 20 degrees down towards the south—east on sunday but talking about dogs a little later elsewhere still generally stuck in on. i have heard it distantly the mid to high teens. for most of outside the door. us on the mid to high teens. for most of us on sunday looks the better day of the week to do preprepared for wet and windy over the next couple of it's 8:11am. days. after almost three years as leader of the conservative party, thank you very much. see you later theresa may will step down today — just weeks after announcing her
6:16 am
on. resignation. however, this won't be the last we see let's take a look at today's papers. of the prime minister. one particular image dominates she'll be staying on at number 10 until her successor the front page of many of the papers has been appointed. this morning, including the mail. tory mps who have their it's six—year—old george sayer holding hands with 95—year—old sights on the top job have until 5pm veteranjohn quinn as part on monday to put their names forward of the d—day commemorations in — but they will need normandy. to have the support of at least eight mps. "thank you for our there will then be freedom" is the headline. a series of votes for conservative young george is wearing the medals of his late great uncle — mps to whittle down the choices, untiljust two candidates remain. who was also called george. party members will then get their chance to cast their votes. and the main image on the front the next prime minister is expected of the telegraph this morning to be announced in the week is veteran david edwards getting a kiss. of the 22nd ofjuly. the paper's lead story is a poll so, looking back, what can we make which suggests borisjohnson is best placed to win back conservative of theresa may's time in office? voters from the brexit party and mp george hollingbery served labour. as the prime minister's parliamentary private secretary the times' coverage of the d—day for almost two years and he joins us now from southampton. commemorations shows donald trump and france's president macron watching a flypast by the french air force. three years in office coming to an end. how will she, three years in office coming to an end. how willshe, as its main story is the uproar caused three years in office coming to an end. how will she, as a by tory leadership candidate three years in office coming to an end. how willshe, as a human, be feeling this morning? well, i dominic raab, who refused to rule out suspending parliament to force through a no—deal brexit. imagine upset is the wrong way to the times suggests the queen could become involved. look at it, but she will be sad the d—day picture chosen about the fact she is going. she has by the guardian is of an emotional normandy veteran had three years at the helm and the
6:17 am
remembering his comrades. elsewhere on the front page, there are claims that the nhs is "going backwards" when it comes principal problem that she needed to to diversity and inclusion. it says there are declining numbers address for the nation is one that of women and people from black remains unsolved and i suspect that and minority ethnic backgrounds will disappoint her. we know first and foremost she considers herself a diligent public servant so it will hurt she has failed to deliver brexit. i think it will, being given key roles. hurt she has failed to deliver brexit. ithink it will, and hurt she has failed to deliver brexit. i think it will, and we need to look back at the circumstances and understand it was one of the most difficult tasks that a prime minister has taken on in many just so many beautifully poignant decades, to be honest with you. so pictures inside and outside all the papers this morning from the d—day many moving parts and complexities celebrations. everyone will have a and the balance of parliament and thing that they took away from what the solidarity unit in the position they saw yesterday, it could be an they wanted to take in some very individual, it could be an image. firm views on either side of the this is in the times. writing about argument and a referendum narrowly won by one side of the argument and some tv coverage and how good it all of the problems that presented was. think she is highlighting is infinding a all of the problems that presented in finding a deal that would find its way to the house of commons and what else. that sort of put things, be acceptable to the country and that has proved to be extraordinarily difficult. you know a lot of people, i don't know about her better than most. will there be
6:18 am
an element of relief today?|j you, a lot of people found it puts her better than most. will there be an element of relief today? i think things into perspective. it makes she wouldn't be human if there was things into perspective. it makes things seem a bit silly and some of not some but if i know the prime the things on tv seem silly, minister as i think i do i think she relatively. she picks up on quote would try to put those to one side right at the end, one of the and she will put them to one side vetera ns. and she will put them to one side and that disappointment about not delivering what she hoped was the right at the end, one of the veterans. this is frank, he is 95. asked what he hoped young people would learn from the d—day landings primary task of her premiership and and he said "i hope the one thing that will nag with her all the time andi that will nag with her all the time and i think she wished she could they take away is to keep away from find a solution. that is what drives her. she had a problem to solve and she had what she would have regarded more". sometimes those words just asa she had what she would have regarded as a solemn duty to the country and resonate. one of the images i that task remains outstanding. let's remember is the bunting up in the talk about how she will be villages. american, french, british, remembered because the parliamentary and also german, two month that we party has turned on her and grass have moved on from that. it was a roots members are sick of her. what will history look back on her like. special day —— to mark. some of the will history be kinder? it's very difficult to tell. if historians stories you have sent into us, a lot look back in 30 or 40 years they of people very moved by what they will probably centring on the have seen and they have shared family stories and they wanted to complexity of the problem that was tell us theirfamily family stories and they wanted to tell us their family members who we re tell us their family members who were pa rt of in front of her. and in the end i tell us their family members who were part of the d—day landings. we

will share some of those with you a think we have to conclude the fact little later on as well. it is 18 minutes past six. it was a by—election that could have it wasn't solved will be remembered yielded the brexit party's first seat in the house of commons, that that will be overlaid by some less than three months analysis of just how after the party was formed. that that will be overlaid by some analysis ofjust how difficult the but instead, labour has held task was. the backdrop to what has peterborough by 683 votes, with nigel farage's candidate in second, and the conservatives in third. happened in the last three years in terms of the country is really let's speak now to election analystjohn curtice, who can help make sense of it all. encouraging. we have seen enormous numbers of jobs created encouraging. we have seen enormous numbers ofjobs created and seen the deficit brought under control and good morning to you. good morning. many other large issues across the country have moved forward in labour could rightly say that this was not a bad night. roughly positive ways but there is no doubt about it, as historians look back in 30 or 40 years it will be brexit speaking, what you would have that her premiership is remembered for. i suspect there will be plenty expected, given where the labour party stands in the national polls at the moment and given what of commentators who will say that happened in this constituency in the plenty of commentators who will say that ple nty we nt of commentators who will say that plenty went wrong but a deal was euro elections two weeks ago. the produced and it was a sensible deal, a compromise between two sides of a first crucial thing to realise some very difficult spectrum and i think of the brexit party, according to the polls, is a significant player on average. they are pulling about what —— that is what we are presented with. who knows, history 2596. will tell but those accounts are yet on average. they are pulling about 25%. but that 25% is about seven to be written. talking about the
6:20 am
points down on what the brexit party achieved nationally in the european peterborough by—election last night, election two weeks ago. ergo, given the conservatives lost 25% of the vote, less than half of what they that the brexit party got 37% of the gained in 2017. what does it tell vote, estimated in the constituency you about the state of the party at the moment? it tells me there is a in the election of peterborough, we real appetite in the country for would expect them to get 30% last brexit to be delivered. there are night, in the end they ended up at plainly lots of conservative voters 29. conversely, the labour party, out there who feel that they voted although it is only running at 23% to leave the european union but the also in the opinion polls, that is nine points up on what it achieved referendum delivered the result and parliament is under a duty to in the european election. if you add deliver it and given that the nine points to the 22 points that conservatives are in charge of the the labour party is estimated to government at the moment, unsurprisingly, the anger, the real have got in the euro election, you end up in 31. that is exactly what labour got. that 31% is the lower anger of people out there who voted in that referendum and you saw their share of the vote that has ever been side win the argument in the country sufficient to win a by—election in are disappointed and i can't be post— war electoral history. it is slightly surprised it has been taken out on the conservative party by people voting for the brexit party. in fact post— war electoral history. it is infacta post— war electoral history. it is in fact a result they give is very the issue of where we stand in clear evidence that what the polls have been telling us in the past two europe has played the conservative weeks about what the legacy of the party for generations. who is the european elections is for leader to bring them together now on this crucial issue? in the end i am westminster is roughly right. that
6:21 am
isa westminster is roughly right. that is a picture that says, yes, the one voter in a this crucial issue? in the end i am one voter in a caucus this crucial issue? in the end i am one voter in a caucus that is going brexit party, a substantial to choose the next leader of the challenger, around one quarter of the vote, but that is less than a conservative party and my own got in the european elections and opinion is that we have to deliver that does mean that in many, many brexit. there is a democratic places, if it were to achieve that mandate to do so and i believe that ina places, if it were to achieve that is absolutely the right thing to do in a general election, it could still lose out narrowly in many but there isn't a democratic mandate to do that in a way that is not constituencies are just as it did in peterborough. but equally does also enormously damaging to the country so we have to find a leader who will shows that the conservatives, who find their way through difficult ran third, they did better than they problem. who is that leader? i've did in the european elections, but been very clear with all of the even so the 26 point drop in their people who are standing that i am vote as compared with the general not going to have a public position. election of two years ago is very i shall look at the arguments and clear evidence of how the brexit vote accordingly according to who is available at the time. many thanks. party is doing the severe damage to the conservatives' prospects in any here's sarah with a look at this morning's weather. immediate general election and that frankly the conservatives will have to do deliver brexit. the lib dems good morning. it's that time of year better than two years ago, down when there are lots of summer festivals, school fetes and weddings where they were on the european election. they can't necessarily happening and i'm afraid the weather is not looking particularly settle. expect to do as well as they did in the european elections. that said, we have some stormy weather on the
6:22 am
cards today and tomorrow but we do back as being a significant player. start the day with sunshine and this is the picture in county durham, indeed, at the moment, across the uk asa beautiful blue skies and later in the day is when the weather goes indeed, at the moment, across the uk as a whole, we have four parties, all of whom are not that far apart downhill and from the south we have heavy rain, gusty winds and later from each other and we will wait to see over the course of the summer thundery showers which will push their way northwards through the day weather this legacy of the european election remains in place or whether and that is courtesy of the deep area of low pressure pushing out of the support for brexit and may that france towards the uk so we have for democrats does fall away. the quite a lot of rain heading on across the south—west, wales as well and their area of rain heads moment, a clear legacy. more than northwards and eastwards through the enough to disturb the regular day. scotland and northern ireland are not having a bad day after a rhythms of british 2—party politics. chilly start with some sunshine clouding over but further south is just very quickly, what can we read where we see some heavy rain and into this in terms of a general election, because the brexit party some strong winds as well as they did not sustain the support they had become more of a feature of the in the euros, this is a flip—flop weather as we head through the day seats, peter brock, what would this and also seeing heavy thundery showers developing later. be in seats, peter brock, what would this beina seats, peter brock, what would this be in a general election, how would temperature is below par for the it translate —— peterborough. time of year between 15 or 18 degrees. let's focus on where we be in a general election, how would it translate -- peterborough. nobody would get an overall majority. the will see disruptive weather as we labour party would probably emerge head into the evening rush hour and as the largest party. it would thatis head into the evening rush hour and that is across much of southern

probably depend on the liberal england and south wales and you can democrats or the snp. unlike ukip in see the extent of the thundery showers developing and there could be some surface water with heavy downpours, lots of rain in a short 2015, the brexit party would have space of time and strong, gusty some representation inside the house of commons. nobody should run away winds developing in the south as well. that heavy rain with a strong with the idea that in the wake of winds will drift further north as we this we might end up with a clean head into the evening and overnight result in an immediate general period as well so quite a soggy election, it could be a rather messy night for much of the uk and heavy, result indeed which it could be difficult for either label the thundery showers with hail moving conservatives to govern the country. john, many thanks. it is now 6:23. gradually northwards across england and rain pushing across scotland and northern ireland and into wales as this week marks the 75th anniversary well. with the cloud, wind and rain of the d—day landings, when allied forces took part it will not be a cold night and in the biggest seaborne invasion in history, in nazi—occupied france. temperatures will generally hold up french forces and the resistance into double figures but saturday played a huge role on the sixth sta rts into double figures but saturday ofjune 1944, and in the following starts on the unsettled note so rain across much of the uk for saturday two months of battle. jean mackenzie went to speak morning and it will be drierfor southern england and south wales compared to the heavy rain today but to three people who were there. the winds will be strong and gusty and these are the average winds but the gusts will be significantly what did you think when you first higher, maybe 40 or 50 mph in the saw the plan? leonjoined south, heavy, thundery showers

the political editor of the sunday times. very good morning to you. it is a strange day this one because we knew this was happening. we had an emotional speech and she announced her resignation day, it does happen today. what are your thoughts? her resignation day, it does happen today. what are your thought57m her resignation day, it does happen today. what are your thoughts? it is phase two of the longwood by. she has already told us she is going on today she will resign as leader of the conservative party but it will be another month before we have a replacement and in that time theresa may remains prime minister. i think this will be a matter of great sadness for her today. she came in with great promise three years ago, made a speech that many people liked about tackling the burning injustices in britain and she said she would deliver brexit by march 29 this year. sadly for her she did not do the brexit pledge and that meant that it was impossible to do anything else. she will leave,
6:44 am
frankly feeling like she has failed in the main task she set herself. and you will know this well, when you hear other politicians talk about her, this curious patch where they paid tribute to her already, when they talk about her there is so much of the respect for her hard work and dedication and determination but there is always quite a big but attached to it. how do you think history willjudge her time as prime minister? it is a bit like attending your own funeral, listening to these tributes. history could turn out to be slightly more favourable to her, i suspect. depending on what happens with her successor. many of the people in her party say she did not fight hard enough for the deal that they would like and she did not play hardball enough with the people in brussels. there is a decent prospect that the person who replaces her will go try
6:45 am
to do what they claim she failed to do. if that person gets on though better than she did it may look like she was not as bad as everybody is privately saying she is. politics is a curious game. at the moment her reputation is low and to be honest the only way is up from here. and this morning we have the results of the by—election, another devastating loss in terms of the conservative party and their vote. we know the labour party won that seed with brexit party coming second and the conservatives third. i just wonder. everything seems to have completely imploded for her at this point in time. how does it work in the mechanics of the next two or three weeks? what does she actually do? well, she is prime minister. there are decisions to make about spending 01’ are decisions to make about spending or going to war things like that. someone has to be there to make those decisions. while all the rest
6:46 am
of the cabinet are obsessing about whether or not they can get the job 01’ whether or not they can get the job or not, somebody has to be there, in extremis, to do things. what has been going on for the past few weeks is that the government has barely been functioning, to be honest. there have been hardly any votes in the house of commons. government has no business. there is nothing to vote on. this is a really odd interregnum period. at the end of the day if there were security threats or things to decide, someone has to have executive authority and be in there and that still falls to theresa may for the time being. the big question that will dominate from here on in, is who will be the prime minister, who will make it? what is the convention around the sitting prime minister and their role or what they can or cannot say, how does that work? well, i think theresa may will state out of the contest. david cameron didn't say anything after he was resigned does
6:47 am
make it reside about who he would support. i think theresa may has made it pretty clear she will not be endorsing any candidates. it will be interesting to see towards the end of the process, if there are two candidates left going off to be voted by the tory grassroots, if there are decisions made which may whoever gets the job, the there are decisions made which may whoever gets thejob, the role there are decisions made which may whoever gets the job, the role going forward , whoever gets the job, the role going forward, whether theresa may would bring them into consult on what they think about things. i think that is distinctly possible if there were big decisions to be made. for the time being, they have no say at all. it is still all on her. we were talking about peterborough just a moment ago. thoughts on that result for you. i think labour would be absolutely delighted to have held it. i thinkjeremy corbyn and the people around him who don't want to go off and say let's have a second european referendum will be able to say to the rest of their party that he is champing at the bit to support the second referendum, look, we can
6:48 am
still go and win seats without making a place on what is happening on the other side is that the boat is split completely between the brexit party and the tories. it is pretty bad news for the tories —— vote stop this bad news for boris johnson who can point to that and say we will lose the seasonal nigel farage and the brexit party are a big threat —— these seats. he will wa nt to big threat —— these seats. he will want to say that he can win back the marginal seas and marginalise the brexit party and take the fight to labour. but i think what the result shows in the round is that politics is fracturing. labour well in that seat last night with 31% of the vote. four parties had a decent showing. i think on the next general election there is every prospect that a lot of seats will divide three, four, five ways and results will be pretty slim. thank you for your time. tim shipman from the sunday times. we will speak to nigel
6:49 am
farage later in the programme this morning. we will. fascinating times. we will check in with sarah to see what the weather has in store over the weekend. good morning. good morning to you, nina and charlie. this morning it is a mostly dry, quite started the day. this comes from one of our weather watchers in newcastle. we have blue skies, fairly serene, but don't be full. the weather has other ideas today. things are turning very unsettled. we have heavy rain, gusty winds around, and later on some thundery showers developing, particularly in the southern half of the uk where we are seeing the worst of the wet and windy weather today. many of us will be pleased to see some rain for our gardens but what we have got is a deep area of low pressure. the rain has pushed in across parts of south wales, southern and south—west england, it will be drifting slowly northwards and eastwards. northern ireland and scotland getting away with a mostly dry story for much of the day. clouding over later with a chilly start. the winds will be a real feature of the weather forecast today. and through tomorrow as well.
6:50 am
top temperatures around 16—18 degrees. it will feel cooler where you are stuck under the cloud and rain across many parts of england and wales. let us focus on southern england and south wales. doing the course of rush hour and into the evening is where we see heavy and thundery showers developing, pushing northwards, there could be hail and localised flooding. strong winds developing, initially for the channel islands and the south—east of england where there could be gusts of up to 50 mph. the strong winds and heavy rainfall continue to push further northwards that we move through the evening and overnight. a lot of what weather on the map through this evening. heavy, thundery showers and this hour. persistent rain putting in across southern and central scotland, northern ireland turning soggy overnight, too. when you first thing saturday morning, but with the cloud, the rain, and the wind it will be a mild start with temperatures in double figures. through the day tomorrow we have got the unsettled picture. rain across
6:51 am
many parts. a little drier for southern england and south wales. strong was developing as well. further north, heavy thundery showers likely to develop across the north—east of england. hail is likely. the winds will be strong for many of us, particularly in the south. top temperatures on saturday, 14- 18 south. top temperatures on saturday, 14— 18 degrees. a little cool across the north of scotland. as we head on into the second half of the weekend, low pressure starts to drift away towards the north—east. few isobars on the map moving through into sunday. it will not be as windy as it will be today. initially across the north—west of the uk and showers developing more widely across northern england, northern ireland also seeing some heavy showers. further south and east you are likely to stay dry on sunday. temperatures creeping up to 20 degrees or so. the mid to high teens further north. sunday looking like the better day of the weekend. be prepared for wet and windy weather today and tomorrow. kylie and nina.
6:52 am
we are always prepared for wet and windy —— charlie. we are always prepared for wet and windy -- charlie. 6:51 is the time. we will turn our attention now to events throughout this event, very moving events, marking 75 years since the allied invasions of nazi occupied france, the the day landings in normandy. —— the day. yesterday we heard from one veteran, harry billinge. he was just 18 when he landed on what's known as gold beach. he told us about that day. i never seen anything like it in midlife. ——my life. you had the ships firing on you, the germans from inland. 88 millimetres guns they use. normandy veterans love one another belonged —— beyond the love of women. if you hit a hole in the ground, you have got to go in.
6:53 am
marvellous man. my generation save the world. a mate of mine died in my arms. he was in a field in caen. he had a three week old baby. it took me to the 60th anniversary to find out where he was buried. they buried him ina out where he was buried. they buried him in a little cemetery. and i'd go up him in a little cemetery. and i'd go up there and put a cross on his grave. i'm very up there and put a cross on his grave. i'm very sorry, i'm a bit choked... you are absolutely entitled to. we are grateful to you. thank you. don't thank me and don't say i'm a hero. i'm no hero. i was lucky. i'm here. all the heroes are dead. and they will never forget them as long as they live. talking to harry billinge. we have enjoyed hearing from you and your enormous pride in yourforefathers who were there on that day. yes. a
6:54 am
lot of people who had watched harry and some of those events wanted to share their stories of their loved ones and we can have a look at some of those pick is that you sent was right now. —— sent to us. there is a tenseness in the air. every man aboard waits for the moment. ready for the night, every man aboard waits for the moment. ready forthe night, not far ahead now, when we sailed from britain under a full moon with course set for france.
6:55 am
6:56 am
have you been to that part of france, that coastline, and you realise how severe the conditions are when you think about those young men stepping out of the boats. thank you to those who got in touch and shared their stories. that was just a sample of those sent to us. on you to everyone who did that. —— thank you. time now to get the news, travel, and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london news, i'm tarah welsh. council officials working around grenfell tower have been accused of racism by the local mp. speaking in parliament, emma dent coad said that they'd described the area as "little africa" and "full of people from the tropics". kensington and chelsea council says its staff have "never stopped caring and never stopped working" to help those affected by the fire.
6:57 am
but the labour mp says attitudes need to change. the fragility of some of the people who come to me is really exceptional. and that needs to be understood. and if you don't even start off by treating people as equals you will never understand that. free breakfasts will be offered to primary school children in hammersmith and fulham. the council thinks it could save families 380 pounds a year, per child. it will be paid for using money from local property developers. it's thought it's the first area in england to do it. a two—way cycle lane connecting south east london has been approved. work will begin on cycle superhighway 4 in the autumn. it's expected to open by the end of next year. next, pollution is a growing issue for the capital. and now four areas are going to get some cash from the mayor's office to try and tackle the problem. hackney, dagenham, southwark, and camden will share £6 million to help reduce traffic
6:58 am
and expand cycle lanes. let's take a look at the travel situation now. on the tubes: the hammersmith & city line is part suspended due to signalling problems. and there are severe delays on the circle line. onto the roads: there are delays approaching the old street roundabout. it's due to a new two way traffic system. and on the a4, going out of town the road is closed at talgarth road. that goes all the way to thehogarth roundabout in chiswick. now the weather with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. if you were hoping for some beautiful summery weather over the next couple of days you might want to look away now. it's going to feel an awful lot more like autumn. it will turn wet and windy this morning then we'll see some sunshine emerge through the afternoon. sunny spells, but the threat of heavy downpours too. and towards western areas of the capital there is a met office weather warning in place where the showers could be particularly sharp and cause disruption through the evening rush
6:59 am
hour. this morning's rush hour, too, will be far from pleasant. the system putting in from the south. heavy persistent rain for a while. clearing its way northwards. and then, after that, the sunshine should start to emerge. but it will turn really quite windy as we head into this evening and there will be these showers popping up as well. and some of the showers particularly sharp, especially out to the west where we've got that warning. highs of 17 degrees. the showers likely to rumble on through at least the first part of the evening, too. really quite frequent and quite sharp in nature. and then they'll tend to lighten as we head into tomorrow morning. we start of the day tomorrow in double figures. very windy indeed. with some gusts of wind up to 40—50 mph. sunday the quiet a day of the weekend. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half—an—hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. now though it's back to charlie and nina. bye for now.
7:00 am
good morning welcome to breakfast with charlie stayt and nina warhurst. our headlines today: labor has seen off a strong challenge —— labour has seen off a strong challenge by nigel farage's brexit party to win the peterborough by—election with a slim majority. the conservatives are knocked into third place on the day teresa may formally stands down from leadership of the party. overdrafts are changing. this morning we'll hear how banks will be forced to overhaul the way they charge when we're in the red. i'll have all the
7:01 am
details in a moment. it's a great day to be in paris. in just a few hours, johanna konta plays for a place in the final of the french open at roland garros. then this evening the women's world cup kicks off at the parc des princes as the hosts france take on south korea. england play scotland on sunday. and in the build—up to that big first match for our home sides — we're with young fans in liverpool and glasgow. good morning. we have wet and windy weather on the cards today with a bit of sunshine in the north, be prepared for disrupt if weather in the south. more details in 15 minutes. it's friday the seventh ofjune. our top story. labour has narrowly won the peterborough by—election — seeing off a strong challenge from the new brexit party, which came a close second. nigel farage's party lost by just 683 votes — pushing the conservatives into third place.
7:02 am
the liberal democrats were fourth. iain watson has the drama from the night, his report contains flashing images. the result did seem to be on a knife edge. i do hereby declare that lisa forbes is duly elected. cheering and applause but it was labour who cut through narrowly over the brexit party with a majority of 683, with the conservatives in third place. the results seem to be on a knife edge all night. sometimes the brexit party felt they were ahead, sometimes labor. labour supporters are delighted they have held on in this seat although their vote has tumbled since the last general election. this seat used to be a two horse race between labour and the conservatives. tonight, a two horse race between labour and the brexit party. they are delighted they came out in front. brexit party supporters had high hopes but their leader, nigel farage, kept a low profile. six out of ten voters backed brexit here during the referendum,
7:03 am
but in the end too few rallied to the new party. the newly elected mp put her victory down to not banging on about brexit. it did come up but not as much as people think it may have. they care about getting a gp appointment, the fly tipping and litter all over the community. the police on the streets, lack of police on the streets, drug dealing happening without fear of being caught. these are the issues that people in peterborough spoke to me about and this is why i was campaigning on those issues. so labour held on in peterborough, but a new party campaigning on brexit has made a big impression. but not enough to secure the first brexit party mp. and iainjoins us now from peterborough. labour held on, just. what conclusions do you draw from what
7:04 am
happened? i think there are a lot of conclusions. firstly, the conservatives came third in a two horse race. usually it is a race between the conservatives and labour since the dawn of time, almost. this time the real challenge was the brexit party coming from nowhere. they have made a huge impression but had they actually won this then nigel farage would have had much more momentum to argue notjust to get brexit done by october but have a huge influence over how conservatives choose their leader next week. it is theresa may ‘s last day as leader at the moment. had labour lost narrowly there would have been many demands from the rank and file forjeremy corden to sharpen his axe and call for a referendum under all circumstances. that is yet to happen. interestingly, the liberal democrats quadrupled their share of the vote,
7:05 am
perhaps suggesting that some remained voters were defecting to them. as the result stands, the conclusion that the libra leadership —— labor leadership can draw is that people want to talk about other things. by talking about council cuts in running a community—based campaign, discussing education, they managed to not fight in the same territory as their opponents and we re territory as their opponents and were able to carve out their own distinctive message, get out their own call vote and managed to sneak over the line. he mentioned theresa may a moment ago and people will vividly remember when she announced she would resign. today is that dave. what does that mean in practice? what happens now? to be honest, nothing has changed in a sense because she is going to remain prime minister until the end ofjuly when the conservatives choose a new leader. she does resign as leader
7:06 am
today and it was not perhaps the best parting gift for her party to come third in this by—election but all eyes are on her potential su ccesso rs all eyes are on her potential successors and what it means is that the contest for the next leader and next prime minister gets under way next prime minister gets under way next week and people will be interested to hear in each of those candidates and their analysis of what went wrong for the party. thank you very much. preparing for brexit has cost the uk government £97 million so far — despite the cabinet office saying only 65 million had been earmarked for spending. that's according to the national audit office, it says the money has been spent on hiring external consultants because government departments lack the staff needed. women who experience domestic abuse are three times more likely to develop a serious mental illness, according to researchers at birmingham university. data collected anonymously by doctors also suggests the scale of domestic violence is hugely under—recorded. lauren moss has more. it is described as an insidious
7:07 am
crime that affects one in four women in england and wales. now new research suggests that domestic abuse is not only unrecorded by doctors, but victims are also three times more likely to develop a mental illness. we know that over half of women have experienced physical or sexual violence will meet the diagnostic criteria for a psychiatric disorder. that can range from stress and anxiety to ptsd to serious mental health conditions. domestic abuse was recorded in just 0.5% of more than 90,000 anonymous patient records, far lower than crime figures indicate. researchers say this could be the tip of the iceberg and are calling for a better screening process. one of the reasons why this piece of work is so important is with significant underreporting, gps and health professionals and primary care can do a lot
7:08 am
to support survivors of domestic abuse and this could possibly bring them a huge cohort of women with a serious unmet mental health need who we could support. the royal college of gps say doctors are highly trained to understand the signs of domestic abuse but often it can be well hidden. earlier this year the government published its draft domestic violence bill. charities hope that these findings could influence future policy and raise awareness about the women suffering in silence who may not have been getting the help they really need. the way banks charge for overd rafts is changing after new rules announced this morning. sean has the details. firstly, what is happening and openly why? big changes. if you are one of those people who teeters on the edge of your bank balance being overdrawn each month, and many people are. it is not necessarily
7:09 am
those with low incomes, it is those who are managing their money to you get overdrawn which means you are borrowing money from the bank and thatis borrowing money from the bank and that is where you start to incur charges. this is what the regulator, the authority has been looking at. there are two types of overdraft. authorised ones where you generally sign up to an account and you will agree to an amount with the bank that you can go overdrawn by and for that you can go overdrawn by and for that period, for that amount you get charged an amount that you know you will be charged. if you go even further and become even more overdrawn and get an unauthorised overdraft you can really see some eye watering interest rates being charged. what the regulator is saying is that this needs to be simplified. they call it the biggest overhaul of overd rafts in simplified. they call it the biggest overhaul of overdrafts in a generation and it will massively change how banks approach things with their customers because they say they will not be able to charge fixed fees. so if you are overdrawn with a fixed fee at the end of the month, banks will not be able to do
7:10 am
that anymore. they will not be allowed to charge a different rate for the un— stuff compared to the authorised overdraft as well. so both those things will mean that the way banks make money, and they make £2.5 billion from last year, that will be changed to bit. so that's what they can't do. what can they do? they are going to charge people something so what will you be charged? they say it will need to be much less than the regulator says. i think people are being charged £5 a day beforehand and they should see that come down to 20p a day on average. so they are saying to the banks that they have been making money in a way they don't like, it will need to be made elsewhere. and what about the banks, what are they saying? there is a feeling that this has been coming so many banks have already made some changes in the way they provide overdraft to customers. what remains to be seen as how they will make a profit elsewhere in banking that they will now not be
7:11 am
able to make through an overdraft. and all this comes april next year. for fans of one of britain's best loved sitcoms there could be a ‘cushty‘ deal on the table. only fools and horses memorabilia — including one of del boy's flat—caps, uncle albert's war medal and david jason's script from a christmas special — will go under the hammer in bristol today and organisers are expecting a lovely jubbly turnout. only fools and horses is extremely popular and we have had interest all corners of the country. it is one of those things that is uniquely british. normally with famous tv items we get interest from all over the world but this is very, very british. we have had interest from edinburgh, there was a chap from spain who phoned up asking questions. it is a very, very quintessentially british sense of humour and i think it appeals to people in this country more than worldwide.
7:12 am
iam sure i am sure there will be a lot of interest. a very popular programme. 12 minutes past seven. let's have a look through some of today's newspapers now. the front pages start with the daily mail. it is a wonderful image dominating the pages of many of the newspapers this morning. six—year—old george holding hands with 95—year—old veteranjohn quinn as part of the d—day commemorations in normanby. thank you for our freedom is the headline. young george is wearing the medals of his late rate uncle who also called george. veteran david edwards on the kiss of the front page of the daily telegraph. it also leaves with a poll that suggests borisjohnson is best placed to win conservative party is back from labor and the brexit party. the times coverage
7:13 am
shows donald trump and the president of france watching a fly past of the french fis. and uproar caused by a conservative party leader candidate who suggested suspending parliament in order to solve the brexit four. in the guardian, claims that the nhs is going backwards when it comes to diversity and inclusion. it says there are declining numbers of women and people from black and minority ethnic backgrounds being given key roles. 13 past seven is the time and that means it is time for us to look at the weather. sarah has the details for us. good morning to you both. quiet start to the day for many of us with this picture coming from one of our weather watchers in newcastle. there is some blue sky and the forecast today but and this isa and the forecast today but and this is a big but, the weather will turn increasingly turbulence over the
7:14 am
next few days. a deep area of low pressure today will bring us heavy rain and gusty wind and later in the day some thundery downpours as well, particularly across the southern half of the uk today because there is low pressure moving up from the south bringing destructive weather to parts of france and the rain and strong wind initially across parts of southern england and south wales and then that system will drift slowly north—eastwa rd and then that system will drift slowly north—eastward is over the next 48 hours or so. scotland and northern ireland do not have a bad day was sunshine around for much of the day after a chilly start, much of england and wales has rain at times and the wind is a real feature of the weather. so the wind around 10-20 of the weather. so the wind around 10—20 miles an hour with gusts reaching 50 mile—per—hour particularly in the south. temperature 16— 18 degrees today but that will feel chilly when you add on the wind effect, the cloud and the rain as well. let's focus on where we could see disruptive weather into rush—hour this evening at the southern england and south wales. thundery downpours developing here with a lot of rain and hail in
7:15 am
a short space of time and strong gusty wind. the strongest of the wind pushes slowly northwards as the low pressure d rift wind pushes slowly northwards as the low pressure drift north moving through the course of this evening and overnight as well. a soggy night for many of us. a band of rain moving into parts of southern and central scotland, northern ireland, england and wales as well but easter crossed england still some heavy showers tonight and they will tend to ease in intensity. the temperature stays in double figures because we have the wind cloud and rain so i'll start but it will be a windy day for much of the uk with spells of rain as well. most of the rain will be across scotland and northern ireland, through wales as well with heavy showers for northern england, thunderstorms likely, hail in the north—east as well. drier further south crossed england and wales but still windy. wind around 20 knots but the gust will be significantly higher, up to 30 or 50 mph. it will fill chilly when you add on the effect of the wind as
7:16 am
well. into saturday night and heading on into sunday and eventually we lose the area of low pressure is a drift off towards the north—east. a bit of an improved picture on sunday. certainly less windy, still some showers initially towards the north—west and developing a bit more widely through the day on sunday. the south—east of england and eastern england should see a better day with less wind, more sunshine and a bit warmer as well, 20 degrees in the south—east mid to high teens further north. thank you very much. speak you later. 16 minutes past seven right now. there's relief for labour after it narrowly held its seat in the peterborough by—elections last night, holding off a challenge from the newly—formed brexit party in the process. let's speak now to the party's shadow transport secretary, andy mcdonald, who joins us from middlesbrough. a very good morning to you. 31% of the vote, but it is not a very convincing vote. is that good enough? if you consider that all predictions were that the labour
7:17 am
party would lose this a seat and lose very badly, think we have to see it in that context. and we won against the odds and i'm absolutely delighted. i'm delighted for lisa forbes who ran a fantastic campaign and will be mp. i'm looking forward to welcoming her to the house of commons on monday. it is a very good night for labour. there is no other way to try to spin this. we were supposed to lose, we won. our numerical advantage increased. it is a lwa ys numerical advantage increased. it is always a smaller turnout in a by—election and against the backdrop of very difficult political circumstances, the message that the labour party delivered on the doorstep resonated with the people of peterborough and they returned lisa forbes as a labour mp for that constituency. it is a very good night for the labour party. you on but you lost a 17% share of the vote. if we were to extrapolate that projected onto a general election it
7:18 am
would not look —— good. you should be securing this is really safely when the government is in crisis. be securing this is really safely when the government is in crisism you would cast your minds back to the euro elections and what has happened across the piece. the predictions were that the brexit party would romp home to a victory in peterborough. these are extraordinary political circumstances and that didn't happen. so the people who were promoting crashing out of the european union with no deal didn't sustain. in the labour party did, because we spoke about that and other things. and it's about those issues that impact upon people in their daily lives, be it policing issues, environmental issues, there issues, environmental issues, there is talk about local authority services and how they had been put under pressure since 2010. so there was a rejection of the austerity programme that has come from this government since 2010. we have to look at that in those aspect and see
7:19 am
what a good night it was for us. especially when the bookies had us down to be beaten very badly. it didn't happen. it is clear that a targeted campaign on those local issues has played a part. lisa forbes has said that brexit is not as big a deal as is suggested. 29% of the vote went to the brexit party. that will damage you in the national picture. i was in peterborough and campaigned with lisa. she is right. it doesn't actually dominate on the doorstep every time a door opens. it is not the first and foremost issue that people race. of course it comes up, it comes up regularly. we have sensible conversations with people when it does. but those domestic issues were very much alive in this by—election and people responded to our alternative approach to these issues. and so she has absolutely got it right that it was those matters that came to the fore with
7:20 am
regularity. but not denying that brexit is a massive issue. what i am saying to you is the people of edinburgh did actually marginally come out against the offer of crashing out of the european union without a deal —— peterborough. we have to get that loud and clear. i'm from the north—east of england and sitting here in middlesbrough, we have steel and petro —— petrochemicals here, no deal means no steel and no polymers. no nissin, no steel and no polymers. no nissin, no fours, no honda. that is the consequence of crashing out of the european union. they don't downplay theissue european union. they don't downplay the issue of brexit one single second. it is the single most important issue that faces our country. it is a crisis for us. many of the electric clearly recognise what the impact would be of no deal. the liberal democrats quadrupled the percentage of the vote in the by—election. is it time for labour to be clearer about a second referendum and commit? what we're
7:21 am
saying, very, very clearly, the only in front of us now is crashing out with no deal. that cannot happen without the sanction of the people. we must go back to the people for them to confirm that that is what they want in a referendum. we have tried our best to ameliorate the impact of leaving the european union so it preserves our economy and jobs. that hasn't worked, sadly. we put an offer that the european union, shall bunny a and others thought very intelligent and the right way to go based upon a permanent customs union, that has not been accepted —— michel barnier. it is perfectly clear that there is no soft brexit option available to us. we have a staff voice between crashing out of the european union or keeping the deal that we have —— sta rc or keeping the deal that we have —— starc choice. that is the issue before the british people now. we have got to put that to a referendum. we are running out of
7:22 am
time. parliament will be in recess. time is against us. we have candidates to be prime minister of our country lining up to be a harder brexiteer and the next candidate. this is absolutely disastrous for us. we have got to be absolutely determined to make sure that doesn't happen without the full sanction, the full knowledge of the people. let the people make their minds up as to whether that is the path they wa nted as to whether that is the path they wanted to go down with all the consequences that flow therefrom. wanted to go down with all the consequences that flow therefromlj think they will rejected out of hand. andy mcdonald in middlesbrough. thank you for sticking with us. it is 7:22. the women's world cup kicks off tonight in france — and many fans here are already getting excited about sunday's game between scotland and england.

7:29 am
everybody looking forward to it. lots more in glasgow after the news, travel, and whether you are watching brea kfast travel, and whether you are watching breakfast this morning. see you later. good morning from bbc london news. i'm tarah welsh. council officials working around grenfell tower have been accused of racism by the local mp. speaking in parliament, emma dent coad said that they'd described the area as "little africa" and "full of people from the tropics". kensington and chelsea council says its staff have "never stopped caring and never stopped working" to help those affected by the fire. but the labour mp says attitudes need to change. the fragility of some of the people who come to me is really exceptional. and that needs to be understood. and if you don't even start off by treating people as equals you will never understand that. free breakfasts will be offered to primary school children in hammersmith and fulham. the council thinks it could save families 380 pounds
7:30 am
a year, per child. it will be paid for using money from local property developers. it's thought it's the first area in england to do it. a two—way cycle lane connecting south east london has been approved. work will begin on cycle superhighway 4 in the autumn. it's expected to open by the end of next year. next, pollution is a growing issue for the capital. and now four areas are going to get some cash from the mayor's office to try and tackle the problem. hackney, dagenham, southwark, and camden will share £6 million to help reduce traffic and expand cycle lanes. let's take a look at the travel situation now. on the tubes: the hammersmith & city line is part suspended and so is the circle line. onto the roads: the a4 is closed out of town from talgarth road.
7:31 am
that goes all the way to the hogarth roundabout in chiswick. there are also severe delays from west kensington. and there is no woolwich ferry running today due to industrial action. now the weather with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. if you were hoping for some beautiful summery weather over the next couple of days you might want to look away now. it's going to feel an awful lot more like autumn. it will turn wet and windy this morning then we'll see some sunshine emerge through the afternoon. sunny spells, but the threat of heavy downpours too. and towards western areas of the capital there is a met office weather warning in place where the showers could be particularly sharp and cause disruption through the evening rush hour. this morning's rush hour, too, will be far from pleasant. the system putting in from the south. heavy persistent rain for a while. clearing its way northwards. and then, after that, the sunshine should start to emerge. but it will turn really quite windy as we head into this evening and there will be these showers popping up as well. and some of the showers particularly sharp, especially out to the west where we've got that warning. highs of 17 degrees. the showers likely to rumble on through at least the first part
7:32 am
of the evening, too. really quite frequent and quite sharp in nature. and then they'll tend to lighten as we head into tomorrow morning. we start of the day tomorrow in double figures. very windy indeed. with some gusts of wind up to 40—50 mph. sunday the quiet a day of the weekend. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half—an—hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. now though it's back to charlie and nina. bye for now. hello this is breakfast with charlie stayt and nina warhurst. here's a summary of this morning's main stories from bbc news. labour has narrowly won the peterborough by—election — seeing off a strong challenge from the new brexit party, which came a close second. nigel farage's party lost by just 683 votes — pushing the conservatives into third place. the liberal democrats were fourth. earlier, we spoke to labour's shadow transport secretary,
7:33 am
andy mcdonald. he said it was not an election based on brexit. later we will speak to nigel for rg in ten or 15 minutes time. —— nigel farage. theresa may will stand down as leader of the conservative party today. she announced her resignation last month, but will stay on in downing street as prime minister until her successor has been chosen. the race to find the next leader officially begins next week, although eleven mps have already announced they will be running for thejob. preparing for brexit has cost the uk government £97 million so far — despite the cabinet office saying only 65 million had been earmarked for spending. that's according to the national audit office, it says the money has been spent on hiring external consultants because government departments lack the staff needed. the world health organization is warning that humanity is entering a ‘new phase', where large outbreaks of deadly diseases like ebola are becoming normal. it says greater effort needs to be made to prepare for epidemics, made more likely by climate change
7:34 am
and large, mobile populations. women who experience domestic abuse are three times more likely to develop a serious mental illness, according to researchers at birmingham university. doctors collected data from more than 90,000 patients, over a 22—year period. the findings also suggest the scale of domestic violence is hugely under—recorded. a border collie who was named the fattest dog in britain has shed the pounds and found a forever home. let's meet bopper the whopper. that is his name and he weighed eight stone in november last year when she waddled into a rescue centre in plymouth. bopper has since dropped down to five stone and been rehomed
7:35 am
with a local couple. she has to lose some weight but there are plenty of short walks with her new owners. that reminds me, i used to have a part—time job that reminds me, i used to have a part—timejob and that reminds me, i used to have a part—time job and an that reminds me, i used to have a part—timejob and an ice cream parlour and there was a man in the sausage dog came in every day. the sausage dog came in every day. the sausage dog came in every day. the sausage dog would have a cone and his stomach was so big with his short legs his stomach used to drag on the ground. but at what point do you say stop giving ice cream to your dog? maybe a little bit of caution was the best policy. there are a lot of good reasons to be in paris with sally today. sally, explain. it's a big day here in paris as the women's world cup gets underway at the parc des princes. here we are high above the champs—elysses. i don't know if you can see behind me we have the arc de
7:36 am
triomphe. over there is the eiffel tower. dion that is the parc—des—princes. and like i said, that's where the women's world cup gets under way. it's the eighth time that the tournament has been held, and more than a million tickets have been sold so far. the united states are the reigning champions and they're the most succesful country, having won it three times. england play scotland in nice on sunday, and the scots had their first training session yesterday. the last time the two sides met competitively was at the european championships two years ago when england won 6 nil. we are very patriotic, as they are as well but maybe it has that added edge because it is scotland and england and it is a first for the world cup and the fans will look at it as a tasty game but for us, again it is ourfirst opening game
7:37 am
so we just need to look at it for what it is. and that match kicks off at five o'clock on sunday afternoon. you can see it live on bbc1 or bbc alba in scotland, or listen to it on radio 5 live. a couple of real defensive clangers ruined england's big night in the semi finals of the nations league. it was 1—1 with the netherlands in normal time, so to extra time we went. first upjohn stones got himself in all kinds of trouble to gift the dutch the lead. ...we we havea we have a couple of problems they are with sound as it was cutting out but we will keep those images there. ijust cutting out but we will keep those images there. i just wanted cutting out but we will keep those images there. ijust wanted to draw your attention, i apologise for those problems, looking ahead to the tennis, joanna konta is playing in a
7:38 am
semi—final in the french open and i cannot remember off the top of my head i think it has been something like 25 years, maybe more, since we had a female player in the french open semi—final. so she is on a terrific run and we will see that result later in the day. a really important moment. and sally will be talking to annabel croft later to find out what is behind the success and to find out why it has taken so long. and if you have seen any of joanna konta's performances lately, she has been playing out of her skin. she has been playing remarkably and, of course, if you do follow the tennis, which i do, there isa follow the tennis, which i do, there is a federate on the dial match coming up as well. that's in the other semi—final. are you following the cricket world cup? —— there is a match between rafael nadal and roger federer. but back to the cricket,
7:39 am
jimmy anderson will be with us after eight o'clock and time now for some weather. good morning, sally did a good morning to you both. a largely quiet and good morning to you both. a largely quietand dry good morning to you both. a largely quiet and dry start of the day for many of us but did not get lulled into a false sense of security because the weather will turn turbulence as we had through the next few days. the picture in staffordshi re next few days. the picture in staffordshire with loose guy around but low pressure is going to dominate the forecast today. heavy rain, gusting wind and thundery downpours to content with through the day, particularly across the south of the uk. further north it is quieter but there is a deep area of low pressure that has a liberal problematic weather across france, now drifting across the channel into south—western parts of the uk. heavy rain this morning across wales, southern and south—western england. area of rain will north across much of england and wales through the day. scotland may get away with a dry day but the wind will become more of a feature. these are the
7:40 am
average speeds that but the gusts will be higher. temperatures around 16,18 will be higher. temperatures around 16, 18 degrees will be higher. temperatures around 16,18 degrees for will be higher. temperatures around 16, 18 degrees for most of us but it will feel colder with windchill, cloud and rain. heading on into the evening let's focus across southern england and south wales because that is where we will see some problematic weather. heavy thundery showers, some hail, lots of rain in a short space of time and strong gusty wind. 40—50 mile—per—hour gust particularly in the channel islands and south—east england. strong wind and south—east england. strong wind and the heavy rain will drift northwards as this area of low pressure m oves northwards as this area of low pressure moves north this evening and overnight. the rain will drift across northern england into parts of southern scotland and northern ireland. still soggy for much of wales. heavy showers elsewhere across much of england and they should ease a little overnight. still windy and soggy as we start saturday morning. the temperature is generally mild with double figures first thing that you will notice the strength of the wind and many areas
7:41 am
have a blustery day on saturday. most rain will drift northwards slowly. heavy and thundery showers for the north—east of england with hail. further south, not for the north—east of england with hail. furthersouth, not as for the north—east of england with hail. further south, not as wet as today but still those very strong winds. dust could again reach 40, possibly 50 mile—per—hour. temperatures are nothing to write home about, 11— 18 degrees on saturday did plenty of heavy showers but they will drift northwards as we head on into the second half of the weekend. low pressure clues to the north—east for sunday and that means there will be a less windy day across the board. still some showers around across the north—west of the uk and then developing a little more widely into the evening. a day of sunshine and showers but an improved day for east anglia in the south—east where there may be temperatures into 20 degrees. call the north and west with a few showers sunday for most places will be the better day of the weekend. many thanks there.
7:42 am
will cross now to sean. he is going to talk to us about overdrafts. something radical is about to happen. yes, if you are ever overdrawn this will affect you. this is something that the financial watchdog for the banks, the financial conduct authority has been looking into for a while now. they are worried that the banks are not clear enough about how much customers will end up paying when they are in the red. do you know your overdraft charge? around 19 million people a year use an arranged overdraft where the bank has agreed that customers can go overdrawn a standard £500, £1000. on top of that, for 14 million people they use an unauthorised overdraft as well where the bank has not agreed to it beforehand and these are the highest fees, quite eye watering. often poured —— paid by the poorest customers. all banks make a lot of muggy from the
7:43 am
overdraft world and in 2017 they earned nearly £2.5 billion from overdraft fees and one third of that from unauthorised once. the regulator says this morning and these are the big changes, banks cannot charge daily or monthly fees so when you see that coming up in your bank account, daily or monthly fees should no longer be there. they cannot charge more for unauthorised lows tha n cannot charge more for unauthorised lows than authorised lows. let's chat to christopher, the executive temperature of strategy and competition at the regulator. good morning to you. what has been your main concern about how banks are treating customers when they get overdrawn? we have announced what we think of the biggest set of changes to the overdraft market for a generation this morning. and the big concern driving behind this is that this is a dysfunctional market. it is very hard to understand the fees and charges that you may bear as a consumer, those fees and charges
7:44 am
often fall disproportionately on some of the poorest people in society and when we look at the nature of those costs, we think that some parts of that market are far too high. when we talk about an arranged overdraft, we can see cost that are up to ten times more than you may pay like—for—like for a payday loan. ten times more than a payday loan. ten times more than a payday loan?! all this time we have been talking about payday loans and that you and your team have clamped down on that market as well. banks have in some circumstances being treating customers just as badly? have in some circumstances being treating customersjust as badly? we must be careful with the comparison because people are often borrowing for short periods of time. nevertheless, what we suggest today or what the rules are insisting on todayis or what the rules are insisting on today is how you align the cost of an arranged overdraft with a range overdraft which are far cheaper. for example, if you borrow £100 on an arranged basis at the moment that
7:45 am
will cost you around £5 a day. the proposal we have here typically that will fall to something more like 20p. so if you say that you want to see authorised overdraft, the charges for those come in line with unauthorised overdraft so there is no difference between the two so you cannot charge more for the latter. mean that people with authorised overdraft might see costs increase as the unauthorised costs come down? one of the things we will do is look very closely at how banks implement these new rules. there are a variety of things we are also doing to make it much easier to compare and shop around and get a good deal on your overdraft if you are one of the one third of the population who regularly uses an arranged overdraft. so this is notjust a measure about aligning those costs, it is also about making sure that customers can keep down the cost of borrowing for themselves long—term into the future.
7:46 am
christopher woolard. thank you very much. from financial conduct authority. they kick in in april next year but people will be looking to see how banks change their habits, will they look to make money elsewhere on other product will adjust the changes with overdrafts. things will be clear in terms of how much we will be charged. it will be more obvious. that is the idea. thanks, sean. let's return to our top story now. the brexit party has failed in its bid to win its first seat in the house of commons, after finishing second to labour in the peterborough by—election. the poll was seen as the first real test for nigel farage's party since their success in the european elections last month. mr faragejoins us now from peterborough. good from peterborough. morning to you. thank you for your good morning to you. thank you for your time this morning. do you want to reflect on a labour holding onto the seat last night was yellow well, you know, it was neck and neck, labour won by a few hundred votes. we are the new kids on the block. we
7:47 am
launched eight weeks ago. it was a big showing. it was a two horse race in this constituency. us against labour. if a few more conservatives had realised that if you really want brexit and you want to stopjeremy corbyn, and things like this, unless you vote for the brexit party labia is going to win. that will be a theme in politics that moves on from here. i am certain that the certainties of the body politic are now broken. very interesting, listening to labour's lisa forbes, who won. she said that she tried to, effectively, stay away from brexit and concentrate on things people we re and concentrate on things people were telling her really mattered. when my going to get a doctor's appointment? when will the bins be collected ? appointment? when will the bins be collected? those appointment? when will the bins be collected ? those kinds appointment? when will the bins be collected? those kinds of things. and actually that was the reason she on this by—election. do you accept that? do you accept some of what she is saying that those things remain really important? you don't accept that at all? no. because local council elections took place in
7:48 am
peterborough on the second of may. all those things are being talked about at a local council level. there is no question they matter to people's lies. exit is the defining issue of our age. over 70% of people say it is the issue —— lives. labour won because they have data. they won because they know who their voters are in this constituency and they managed to turn enough of them out. we had energy and enthusiasm, but because we are so new we had no data at all. either way, two things happened last night. this result where labour snuck in by a small number, secondly there was a national opinion poll, published last night by yougov, unbelievably putting the brexit party six points ahead in the national opinion poll. something significant is happening. you were very quick to dismiss the notion that in a by—election, as this was, or possibly in a general election, that people would still be going on am i pro or anti—brexit.
7:49 am
does it not give you pause for thought if you are a single policy party then when it comes to a vote ina party then when it comes to a vote in a constituency, that is not what people are going to do. does it not give you pause for thought on that? it is the defining issue of british politics. do people care about other things? they do. they voted in peter brock on may two. were these the issues they voted on? who they the most competent to look after things? —— peterborough. as time heads on we had was a general election and i will talk more broadly about many of those big national issues. for now until brexit is decided, one way or the other, this will define everything. does your party have a ma nifesto everything. does your party have a manifesto was yellow i have never, ever. that is a horrible word. the word manifesto sounds like a swea rword to me. word manifesto sounds like a swearword to me. it is a document of lies that labour and the tories
7:50 am
produce every election without any intention of ever delivering on it. it is one of the most abused words in the english language. what we will produce, for the next general election, whenever that may be, is a contract with britain. we will show a whole series of things where we believe ourselves to be a lot more competent than what we have in parliament currently. i take this point about manifesto. a lot of viewers would possibly go along with that thought that it does not mean much. all it represents is that you have a set of values, notjust one thing, but a set of values. at the moment in place to your advantage that you have one issue you are centring on. but people say that is not real life, that is not what life is about day to day. they need more from you as a party. they might be looking for that right now.|j from you as a party. they might be looking for that right now. i agree. they agree with that. but give me a little bit of time. as they say, we launched eight weeks ago today. in a very short space of time we have come a long way. more to do. we have
7:51 am
to broaden and develop our party, instructors, get 602 to candidates in place for a general election, broaden our policy platform, particularly with regard to really radical political reform in this country. we are the first to accept that we have a huge amount to do, but we have put together already a tea m but we have put together already a team of men and women who have come from the real world. many of whom do deals for a living. we do a much betterjob of getting us out of the european union and negotiating a new trade deal with united states of america. in what is very uncertain times politically, one thing is certain, there is a race to be the next prime minister and at the moment the frontrunner is boris johnson. isn't that a bit of a nightmare scenario for you, because of all people is he the one you most fear? well, look, let's see. boris johnson, when mrs may negotiated her new european treaty, or monsieur
7:52 am
barnier, boris wrote about it, spoke about it, said it would reduce us to being a slave state in the flowery way that boris does. then the third time he voted for it. if a man tells you this document is a disaster, it will reduce us to being a slave state and then votes for, you have to ask yourself how much courage does borisjohnson have what does he really believe in. i think what will happen is as of the 31st of october approaches, less than five months away, that is the date we are due to leave the european union. all of these candidates are saying vote for us we will become prime minister, we will leave on that date. a promise you this. if we don't leave on that date the dramatic progress you have seen the brexit party make in the last eight weeks will be as nothing compared to what we do then. nigel farage, thank you for your time this morning. this week we have been commemorating 75 years since the allied invasions
7:53 am
of nazi occupied france and the dj landings in normandy. —— the day. harry was 18 when he landed on the beach and he told us about that day. i never seen anything like it in me life. you had the ships firing on you, the germans from inland. 88 millimetre guns they used. normandy veterans love one another beyond the love of women. if you hit a hole in the ground, you have got to go in. marvellous men. my generation saved the world. a mate of mine died in my arms. he was in a field in cannes. he had a three week old baby. it took me to the 60th anniversary to find out where he was buried. they buried him in a little cemetery. and i'd go up there and put
7:54 am
a cross on his grave. i'm very sorry, i'm a bit choked... you are absolutely entitled to be. we are grateful to you. thank you. don't thank me and don't say i'm a hero. i'm no hero. i was lucky. i'm here. all the heroes are dead. and i will never forget them as long as i live. it was so lovely hearing from harry yesterday. it has had a big impact on people watching. what we have seen over the course of this week is your amazing pride in your forefathers who were there. there is a tenseness in the air. every man aboard
7:55 am
waits for the moment. ready for the night, not far ahead now, when we sail 01:55:09,085 --> 2147483052:34:19,257 from britain under a full moon 2147483052:34:19,257 --> 4294966103:13:29,430 with course set for france.
