6:02 am
the hong kong government has since suspended the plan, but protesters want it to be scrapped altogether. we're joined now by our correspondent karishma vaswani. it would have allowed the extradition of people here in hong kong to mainland china and that's one of the main reasons we saw so much anger on the streets of hong kong recently, some of the biggest numbers in terms of demonstrators, showing and portraying their disenchantment and their dissatisfaction with the way they believe hong kong is run full remember, this is a place that is a pa rt remember, this is a place that is a part of china that it operates semi autonomously and enjoys freedoms that china doesn't and so today what we have seen is clashes between
6:03 am
police and protesters earlier today right here on this street. earlier today, it was a very tense scene. the crowd has now dispersed but there are still large numbers of people expected to attend the annual rally, marking the handover of hong kong to mainland china. it is an opportunity, typically, every year, for people here to show how upset they are with the hong kong government and increasingly, they have seen in influence of asian creeping into hong kong this year, we are expecting it to be even larger in terms of numbers because of the numbers already out here. —— influence of beijing. a 26—year—old woman, who was eight months pregnant and died from stab injuries at a house in croydon, has been named by police as kelly mary fauvrelle. her baby was delivered at the scene by paramedics on saturday and is in hospital in a critical condition. police said a 29—year—old man
6:04 am
was in custody and a 37—year—old man had been released under investigation. scotland yard said it was keeping an "open mind as to the motive". the conservative leadership candidate, jeremy hunt, says he will set aside six billion pounds to help the farming and fishing industries deal with the impact of a no—deal brexit. meanwhile, his rival, borisjohnson, plans to give a pay rise to millions of public sector workers. mrjohnson has vowed to cut taxes if he becomes prime minister, predicting this would stimulate the economy and increase government revenues. gordon brown has urged theresa may to use her final days in office to "honour" the commitment, to protect free tv licences for all over—755. the former labour prime minister has written to mrs may to highlight the 2017 conservative party manifesto, which vowed to protect the pensioner benefit until 2022. the bbc says the concession will only be available to households where someone receives pension credit from june 2020. hundreds of thousands of people
6:05 am
in new york have lined the streets to watch the city's pride parade. the event marks the fiftieth anniversary of riots in 1969, between police and customers at the stonewall inn. a smaller unofficial march has also been held. its organisers claim to represent the true spirit of the gay rights movement. 0ur lgbt correspondent ben hunte sent us this report from manhattan. new york has always been a major destination for lgbt pride festivals. but this weekend's events where their biggest yet. a message of inclusion and equality could be felt across the city. there has been two duelling pride parades marching through the streets. one with huge floats, major corporate sponsors and millions of people lining the streets. the other taking a completely stripped back approach, that many would not even recognise as a modern lgbt pride parade.
6:06 am
chanting. the team behind it, reclaim pride, were protesting the commercialisation of pride with home—made banners, political chanting and a rally in central park. what we are seeing is they're co—opting this very important activist holiday as a corporate platform for profits. we want to return it to its roots, which was a protest march put on by activists in the wake of the 1969 stonewall riots. so, has pride become too commercial? virgin ceo sir richard branson doesn't think it matters. i think it's a start in the right direction. i don't think — i think they are better than the companies that are doing nothing. whilst people debate whether pride has lost its message, it is worth remembering that neither of this weekend's pride events here would be welcome in several cities in the united states and in many countries across the world. ben hunte, bbc news, new york. from today, people will find it easier to switch mobile phone providers. steph is here with more details.
6:07 am
it has been a bit of a pain for many yea rs, it has been a bit of a pain for many years, hasn't it? yes, what you would normally have to do to keep the same mobile number and keep the same provider — switch provider, it can lead to awkward chats, they are trying to keep your custom. 0fcom says the hassle of having to speak to your provider on the phone can be one of the main factors stopping people switching. you can just send a text. what you would need called a pac. you just text for that now and you will be able to send your number and they will send you back the pac code. if
6:08 am
you pay—as—you—go, they will give you pay—as—you—go, they will give you the balance and credit as well so you the balance and credit as well so you will get that detail back and you have 30 days where that code is valid and you can switch to a new provider. this is all because of, say people are put off from switching —— 0fcom. if you do want to change provider and want to change number completely, you can do that via text as well so you don't have to have that conversation with the provider. you canjust send stack to your provider. i haven't swapped providers since i first got my mobile phone which was many years ago. i have had the same numberfor over 25 years. i've had my same number since i was 16. needs to be a bit more showbiz. i think i've only had two. you should have changed by now. why? because i've been wasting
6:09 am
money by having the same provider for starters. the office will come flooding in now. —— the offers. facebook quarters are being visited by the church. the church is hoping a more positive online atmosphere will be created. now, it's time to get your strawberries and cream at the ready, as play opens at wimbledon today. you feel as though it is the start

6:14 am
in the programme, a really interesting interview i did with serena williams, we see a very different side to have a stop she is a really interesting character and looking forward to share that with you. that is on at about —— that is on about 6:30. look how beautifully manicured is for the first day of play. behind me you can see how quiet it is. the police will be arriving with the police will be arriving with the police dogs for the search. everything is just pristine. police dogs for the search. everything isjust pristine. all the flowers in all the wimbledon colours and we will be taking you through all that. if you are stepping up first thing this morning, it is not

6:18 am
she played glastonbury last night, 14 years after cancer forced her to cancel a headline set. the paper also claims labour is plotting a tax raid on the middle classes. the sun also has a picture of kyle at glastonbury on its front page. a pa ntsuit? a pantsuit? a jumpsuit. and its lead story is that countdown's rachel riley has married her strictly come dancing partner pasha kovalev in a secret las vegas ceremony. and rachel riley herself has tweeted this lovely picture, with the message "introducing the new mr and mrs kovalev. we both said yes!" that is lovely stuff. congratulations to them. we had joe weeks a few weeks ago and he got married over the weekend as well. he put it off. congratulations,

6:20 am
made them into stickers and so they are now creating and collecting stickers of each other. who doesn't wa nt stickers of each other. who doesn't want to be a sticker. that is adorable. what was the glastonbury highlight? kindly. kylie was brilliant. i got glastonbury envy. i was fine until i saw kylie. stormzy was fine until i saw kylie. stormzy was fantastic as well. and the randoms popping up on the stage, chris martin, nick cave. coldplay. chris martin, nick cave. coldplay. chris martin, nick cave. coldplay. chris martin waiting at the side of the stage. he did a good job. very good with kylie. i know he did a good with kylie. i know he did a

#.# birds. come to you. how dare you... #. # imagine you when we were young... very back # very back yes, it's true what they say, it is better # i can't get you out of my head... #it # it was just fantastic. that thing about being plastic free we will talk about that a little later on because people used to say that glastonbury felt quite crunchy afterwards because of all the plastic bottles. but now they did not put any plastic at all. at times, kylie found it difficult
6:23 am
to hide her emotion. in 2005i in 2005 i was meant to be here on this very stage and circumstances meant that i didn't make it. when i was watching glastonbury, some of the artists covered one of my songs and soi the artists covered one of my songs and so i asked one of those people who happens to be a friend if he would join me, mr chris martin! all the way to the back. one, two, three... la la la. we have not had the viewing figures yet but i would love to know how many people were
6:24 am
dancing around the kitchen. love to know how many people were dancing around the kitchenlj love to know how many people were dancing around the kitchen. i was. steph was. there must be something unlike anything else when people either sink back a song of yours stop 100,000 people singing that fa ct, stop 100,000 people singing that fact, it must be one of the greatest things to be involved in. it will never happen to us. they offer everything from spray tans to manicures and hair extensions, and beauty salons have been filling the gaps on our high streets, with more than 1,000 new stores opening in the last 12 months. beauty is big business and new figures show the sector generated more than £28 billion to the uk economy last year. one of the biggest areas of growth, is the rise of lash extensions, as our business correspondent emma simpson has been finding out. it's the must have beauty accessory — lash extensions — and women aren't batting an eyelid at the cost. it's part of their monthly budget now. i believe lashes are in with their mortgage, in with their bills, ‘cause it's something that isjust done. jilly runs her own salon,
6:25 am
aged 30, in huddersfield. a lash entrepreneur. i am taking an extension and i'm applying that one extension to that one natural lash. it takes up to two hours and they last up to two months with top ups. no two sets are the same and the options are endless. jilly‘s clients just want to feel good. love them. jilly‘s clients just want to feel good. rachel spends around £60 on her extensions every month. it's not necessarily about how other people perceive you. but i feel so much better about myself for having lashes and so much better for not having to spend an age getting ready to go to work. jilly‘s oldest client is a 72—year—old shirley.
6:26 am
no need to worry about mascara and i feel more like a woman again. i didn't have very many eyelashes because i suffer from alopecia. and it's just absolutely marvellous. winning this competition would show my family, like, you don't need to go to uni to achieve greatness. i want to make something of myself. it's not just lashes. a hit tv show to find britain's next make up star. the entire beauty industry is looking pretty good. 0k, guys, so today you're going to practise on your skills, so we've got waxing, make up, nails going on. at the london college of beauty therapy the technicians of the future. the beauty industry now employs over 1 million people directly or indirectly in the uk. and here they pride themselves on getting most of the youngsters into work.
6:27 am
yeah, there are so many skills you can learn and i have learnt so many already. you know, special effect and, you know, eyebrows and eyelashes with so many different parts and so many routes you can go. for now i will go freelance and focus on eyelashes, an eyelash tech. in eyelash tech. what's the dream job? professional make—up artist. my own company, my own brand. jilly‘s got her dream job, she just can't keep up with the demand. in future, could more women be wearing extensions that not? emma simpson, bbc news, huddersfield. my my problem is that i cannot sit still for long enough. my problem is that i cannot sit still for long enoughlj my problem is that i cannot sit still for long enough. i do not like fiddling around the eyes. still to come on breakfast: becoming a mum has a change of perspective on a lot of things and
6:28 am
it has changed in terms of i want to leave a legacy for and be a positive person for my daughter. serena williams tells us about what motivates her, as she prepares to chase her 24th grand slam title. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london news, i'm victoria hollins. police are appealing for help finding a 12—year—old boy who has been missing for a week. daisharn carr from croydon was last seen around 2pm last monday when he was leaving a relative's home. detectives say they have carried out extensive searches already, and his family are becoming increasingly worried. the mayor is to warn that putting off action to tackle climate change is adding to the problem. sadiq khan will kick off london's first climate action week later, which will bring together industry leaders and campaigners of all ages
6:29 am
in a series of events. the capital currently gives off more emissions than anywhere else in the uk but has commited to becoming carbon neutral by 2050. a report's warning young londoners from ethnic minority backgrounds are being excluded from the creative industries. it comes after the croydon grime artist, stormzy, highlighted racial inequality in the arts during his headline set at glastonbury. the youth advocacy group, partnership for young london, which is behind the research, is calling for better careers advice and funding to increase diversity in the industry. a school girl from luton has written a play that will be performed at london's national theatre tonight. 16—year—old cerys wrigley is one of the finalists in the theatres young playwright competition. she's made the last 9 from over 400 entries from across the uk. we get such a bad rap and, you know,

6:32 am
judy murrayjoins us at wimbledon as andy makes a welcome return in the doubles. # can't get you out of my head. from kylie, to stormzy, the killers and sir david attenborough — we'll wrap up the best bits from worthy farm as glastonbury festival draws to a close for another year. she's known as "the undisputed queen of african music", three—time grammy award—winner angelique kidjo joins us ahead of her debut at the bbc proms. good morning. here's a summary of today's main stories from bbc news. riot police have used pepper spray and batons during clashes with protesters in hong kong overnight, on the 22nd anniversary of its shift from british to chinese rule.
6:33 am
the protests are the latest against a law that would allow suspected criminals to be sent to mainland china to facejustice. the hong kong government has since suspended the plan, but protesters want it to be scrapped altogether. a 26—year—old woman, who was eight months pregnant and died from stab injuries at a house in croydon, has been named by police as kelly mary fauvrelle. her baby was delivered at the scene by paramedics on saturday and is in hospital in a critical condition. police said a 29—year—old man was in custody and a 37—year—old man had been released under investigation. scotland yard said it was keeping an open mind as to the motive. the conservative leadership candidate, jeremy hunt, says he will set aside six billion pounds to help the farming and fishing industries deal with the impact of a no—deal brexit. meanwhile, his rival, borisjohnson, plans to give a pay rise to millions of public sector workers. mrjohnson has vowed to cut taxes if he becomes prime minister, predicting this would stimulate the economy and increase government revenues.
6:34 am
hundreds of thousands of people in new york have lined the streets to watch a gay pride march. the event marks the fiftieth anniversary of riots in 1969, between police and customers at the stonewall inn. a smaller unofficial march has also been held. its organisers claim to represent the true spirit of the gay rights movement and claim modern lgbt pride celebrations have become too commercial. a search is still on—going for a nine—foot long snake which escaped from a house in cambridge. the reticulated python was last seen in the early hours of this morning. it is the largest snake native to asia, normally eats mammals such as rats and kills its prey by constriction rather than venom. if you are in the cambridge area, beyond the lookout for a egg snake.
6:35 am
iam very beyond the lookout for a egg snake. i am very glad right now that i am not in the cambridge area. presumably, it is a snake like this, that's not the actual picture. 0r maybe it is, who knows? sally and carol are at wimbledon for us. you have done an amazing interview, sally? i met serena williams over the weekend. she is one of those characters. we hear a lot about her, we see her on court, let's be honest, she can be hugely intimidating, certainly in her style of play, she is such a competitor. this interview was quite revealing because we talked about everything. all sorts of different things, marriage, motherhood, she is of course aiming for her 24th grand slam title and that is uppermost on her mind was not talked a little bit about meghan markle and maybe any advice or the new mother with baby
6:36 am
archie was up here she is, i will let her explain it for herself. lovely to meet you. when i do karaoke, my name is sally. what is your song? what —— welcome to wimbledon. chasing a 24th grand slam title. you talk with such great positivity now about your image and your body image and your power and your body image and your power and your strength. do you feel that part of your legacy will be to change how women are perceived on instagram, social media, television? for me, it is really important to believe in yourself and it is hard. i can't imagine growing up nowadays in this time. but i have to imagine because i have a daughter that is going to grow up in this time so i kind of need to put myself in that situation and what do i want out of that? that is how it starts and for me, i do
6:37 am
have a voice that i can use and how doi have a voice that i can use and how do i use that in a positive way? on your instagram, your job do i use that in a positive way? on your instagram, yourjob title is 0lympia's mum. how has becoming a mother changed you ? 0lympia's mum. how has becoming a mother changed you? it has changed my perspective on a lot of things and it has also changed me in terms of wanting to leave a legacy. i want to be this positive person for my daughter and i just want always to adjust, everything i do i want to do it for my daughter and i never obviously had that motivation before. you seem to have the parenting thing totally down. before. you seem to have the parenting thing totally downlj totally do not. i'm a mess. ijust put on some concealer and i'm here. that's what we all do!|j put on some concealer and i'm here. that's what we all do! i am pretending that everything's fine. do you want things to be different to how things work for you growing 7 to how things work for you growing up? i think parents want this and this and this for their kids. we didn't turn out that bad so, you know, i'm definitely going to incorporate a lot of stuff that my
6:38 am
pa rents incorporate a lot of stuff that my parents did with me. i had a really good environment growing up and i loved having sisters around. i can't provide that for 0lympia just right now. yet! who knows? yet. have you had a chance to talk to your friend meghan markle about parenting advice or words of wisdom?” meghan markle about parenting advice or words of wisdom? i never pass on words of wisdom because i think everybody who has a kid, especially when you just had a baby, it is so difficult to just when you just had a baby, it is so difficult tojust be. when you just had a baby, it is so difficult to just be. that's the truth. is just difficult to just be. that's the truth. isjust get through the first three months and four months and then we can talk. what motivates you now? what gets you out of bed and into the gym and onto the court?” don't want to not play tennis. i love what i do but i don't want it to, not do it at the best level that ican. so to, not do it at the best level that i can. so if i go out on the court and i'm not training as hard as i wa nt and i'm not training as hard as i want to, is just not going to work out so that's my motivation. looking ahead into this tournament, how do
6:39 am
you feel physically? you feel right there and ready? i feel good now. its been a rough time for me this year but i'm finally at a place where i'm like, oh, my god, i'm not in pain, oh, my god, let's do this! this is a good place for me to be out. so you feel not in pain? finally and i couldn't be more excited about it so now i'm just happy. isn't that interesting? 20 more from serena throughout the morning at wimbledon. let's look at the rest of the sport. we have been talking about this for the last few days, dan. ithink talking about this for the last few days, dan. i think you are right about england. england have reignited their cricket world cup campaign after a superb victory against india at edgbaston. jonny bairstow starred with the bat as he and jason roy made 160 runs from the first wicket. the fear was that india could pull off the highest chase in world cup history but england managed to hold their nerve to win by 31 runs. they are now back in the all—important semi—final places. the manner in which we played today,
6:40 am
particularly with the bat, was outstanding. it certainly resonates with everybody in the change rooms, the identity in which we wanted to play within this tournament. its come at a really good time. and againstan come at a really good time. and against an extremely strong team. so we're delighted. there's only a little bit longer to wait for england's huge semi—final against usa at the women's world cup. the match is tomorrow evening live on bbc one and is the lionesses second consecutive world cup semi—final. and although they face the favourites and reigning champions, manager phil neville is not concerned. i'm not worried about anything. i never do. never worry about the opposition. we concentrate a lot on what we can do, how we're going to try and win a game. and our strengths and our values and the
6:41 am
style of play that we want to play is the most important thing. for the first time this formula one season someone other than a mercedes driver has won a grand prix. in austria, red bull's max verstappen took the lead from ferrari's charles leclerc with a couple of laps to go, but the move prompted a stewards investigation which took three hours to confirm victory. championship leader lewis hamilton failed to get on the podium for the first time this season, finishing fifth. caster semenya won the 800 metres at a diamond league meeting in california. it's the first time the south african has raced over the distance for almost 2 months. a ruling by world athletics forcing her to take hormone—suppressants has been temporarily overturned by a swiss court allowing her to compete in her favoured event. so, i don't know if you are paying attention, everyone, when we were talking to serena williams. we talked about sally being her karaoke
6:42 am
alias and when she goes into a karaoke bar, she puts her name is sally, not serena. i love that. she said she thinks anything 90s so i thought i would share with you my favourite karaoke song and it would have to be islands in the stream. the dolly version. i wonder if carol will sing with me. my favourite is a summer of 69. you have got to do it with the air guitar as well. anything by brian! you know me so well! we are here in the sunshine next to cot one which has a new roof but we don't expected to be employed this week because the weather this week for windward and is a sad affair. we expected to stay dry. does for wimbledon. is set fair. not particularly cold —— this week for
6:43 am
wimbledon is set fair. it is a dry one after what we have just said, with highs of about 21 celsius. we will see more cloud to develop as we go through the course of the day but it will still be sunny, even into the afternoon. for all of us today, a mixture of sunny spells are indeed some showers. those of them will be in the north across parts of scotland, northern ireland, north—west england and north wales. you can also see a fair bit of cloud that will be moving across the day. at nine o'clock this morning, across scotland, we will hang onto the showers and they will be cloud around. very windy. not till the afternoon well that settle down. for northern ireland, northern england, again, the risk of showers getting into north wales as well. quite a bit of cloud. north—west england, right down towards the south—east,
6:44 am
we have something sunnier. through the course of the day, that is where the course of the day, that is where the cloud will come over on the north—westerly breeze and we will see sunny spells rather than wall—to—wall blue skies. temperatures today, cooler in the north but we are looking at a high of up to about 21 and maybe 22 as we pushed down towards the south—east and nothing like saturday's values in the top temperature was 34 degrees, making it the warmest day of the year so far. through this evening and overnight, the wind will start to ease and we will see clear skies but they will also be showers coming across north—west scotland, crossing eastwards, with their overnight lows of nine and 13. tomorrow we start off with the sunshine, that is where we will see the cloud builder through the day, coming inwards again in the north—westerly, ringing a bit more in the way of sunny spells rather than wall—to—wall blue skies and its scotla nd than wall—to—wall blue skies and its scotland that will see some of those showers. initially in the north but we could see a few into the central lowla nds we could see a few into the central lowlands through the cause of the day. temperatures tomorrow up to about 22 degrees. it will get a
6:45 am
little bit warmer, up to about 25, as we get through the course of the week. just before i go, one thing worth mentioning is if you are in england and wales this week, particularly in the sunshine, we are looking at rather pollen levels at high— very high. the sunshine looks absolutely lovely. we will be at wimbledon throughout the morning. how do you feel about the idea of applying for your nextjob by video link? steph's been looking into this and it's getting more common isn't it? for some people it would be a good idea but for others it would put the fear of god. we've been doing some digging into this. we spoke to six of the biggest recruiters and some unis as well and they're all saying they're seeing a rise in the use of video in recruitment.
6:46 am
sometimes that's just a normal interview done over a video link. but it can also be a situation where you get recorded but you don't actually speak to someone else. our business correspondent colletta smith popped down to liverpool university, where they train students for video interviews, to try it out. there are lots of things that appealed to me about this role and i am excited about meeting people. companies can actually see you, but you will not be actually speaking to anyone. it gives them an opportunity to hear you and how you are in real life in person. that means one minute and 30 seconds so you can read the question. when you see the clock ticking down, it adds to the pressure. and i looking at the right place? definitely. you will have a white background as well. that is behind you. make sure you do not
6:47 am
have your washing up.” behind you. make sure you do not have your washing up. i am as ready asi have your washing up. i am as ready as i will ever be. when you are ready, you just click add. and start my answer. 0k. ready, you just click add. and start my answer. ok. there are benefits with it. you can save time and money but there are also negatives in terms it turns people off who may be do not have as much confidence. people do get nervous, especially talking to a camera. and not an actual person. how did you feel about that one? my heart rate is going. you're smiling, it is very engaging. clare is here with me from the copd. the professional body representing the hr industry in the uk — shejoins me now.
6:48 am
what are the benefits? it means organisations can access different candidates. it can also sift through a large group. it is beneficial because these are actual requirements of thejob. because these are actual requirements of the job. if you are ina requirements of the job. if you are in a customerfacing role or do requirements of the job. if you are in a customer facing role or do a lot of resenting, it is a good way of assessing you. however, if you area of assessing you. however, if you are a computer programmer, less successful. it has to be relevant to the role stop as i said at the beginning of all this, there are different types of users. the straightforward interview make sense but what about all these artificial intelligence, analysing your body language, things like that. al can be used. it will be looking at self—confidence and posture and if thatis self—confidence and posture and if that is helpful to the role you are doing, that is absolutely fine but
6:49 am
if it is not relevant it is not as useful. can you train to be good at it? absolutely. you can practice but some people will be more confident in front of the camera. if you are shy or introverted, or people that are not as tech savvy. why do you think it is becoming more popular? increasingly people are using video as part of their social media and social lives. it is inevitable that will start to influence the way businesses operate. we see the use of video interviews double in recent yea rs of video interviews double in recent years and also hearing more about video cds, acting as a show real and also video screening interviews. do you think this could become standard? it can become much more popular but we would not want to see it replace traditional elements of
6:50 am
job recruitment altogether and that is for three reasons. it is not necessarily as relevant to a person's role, it is not inclusive to old cannabis and the third area, which is important, it does not give you a good feel. —— not inclusive of all candidates. and some people at home thinking, i will never be able to do home thinking, i will never be able todoa home thinking, i will never be able to do a job interview again. what would you say to people who worry and fear about this type of recruitment? there are things they can do, preparing and also feeling confident and perhaps recording yourself and looking back at it. thinking about technical placement and finding someone tidy, somewhere quiet to do the interview where you will not be disturbed and feel more confident. and your tips would be
6:51 am
along those lines? yes, be confident, practice out loud, review footage of yourself but for organisations is it fair? is it inclusive and is it relevant? do you think you would do a good video interview? i hope so after this! you can trainfor interview? i hope so after this! you can train for it but some people are not brilliantly tech savvy. anyway, thank you. so says a non— tech savvy person. good on video though. when i was training to do this job i used to practise in the bathroom mirror. you didn't! if you watch yourself back, you might put your head on a weird angle, close your eyes.
6:52 am
back, you might put your head on a weird angle, close your eyesm also explains why you brush your teeth here in the morning! that is a pre— breakfast secret, the 5:50am toothbrush. i will be in trouble with my wife if she is watching. you can't get in trouble for brushing your teeth? in public you can. from "stormzy", to "the killers" and "kylie" — this year's glastonbury line up was a cracking one for fans, but what is the festival like for some of the artists making their worthy farm debut? idles and fontaines dc, as they came off stage. this is one of the most magnificent moments in our lives. it shows how far idols have come. this punk rock
6:53 am
band latest album reached number five in the album charts. we met the front men moments after they came on stage. they have a huge following. many our interview took a while to get going. this was the 12th selfie. a stunning audience. i will never forget it, apart from my wife and child it was the best thing. forget it, apart from my wife and child it was the best thingm forget it, apart from my wife and child it was the best thing. it got too much forjoe and within minutes his wife and newborn baby came up on stage. my baby was asleep through the whole thing. when did you think,
6:54 am
this is happening? i have made it? tonight. this is stunning. sometime in your life, it is ok to allow yourself to take a breath and accept what you have done and pack yourself on the back. and that moment was tonight? yes. later in the backstage bar, more people delighted to see joe but these are notjust regular fans, meet fontaines dc, unless well—known band who have also signed on the same label. a postpunk bank from dublin, they only released their first from dublin, they only released theirfirst album from dublin, they only released their first album in april. they may be less famous than idles right now but they were still spotted by a keen fan. earlier they played on the
6:55 am
john peel stage. definitely the biggest gig today. you think i am going to love doing that but it is ona going to love doing that but it is on a sphere of dreams. they are just dreams and then suddenly they stopped being that. playing here at glastonbury was a first for these bands, something they can both dream of, a performance and an experience neither will forget. you said it would be brilliant to stand up there and all those stands. do let us know what your highlights of glastonbury. my highlight has been upgraded. it was kylie and now it is watching a baby dance to kylie. it is only about these hi, it is absolutely brilliant. a man who

7:00 am
with some sunshine. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. bye for now. good morning welcome to breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. 0ur headlines today: violent clashes between police and pro—democracy protesters in hong kong, as events take place to mark the anniversary of the uk's
7:01 am
handover to china. the courts are ready, the queues are building. it's day one of wimbledon 2019 as the seven times champion here serena williams tells breakfast about her hopes for the future on and off the court. i want to leave a legacy. i want to be this positive person for my daughter. everything i do, i want to do it for my daughter and i never obviously had that motivation before. there's a new way to keep your number when you switch mobile phone provider. from today all it takes is a text. i'll be looking at what the change means for you. # yes it's true what they say, it's better the devil you know. a triumphant kylie steals the show at glastonbury 14 years after her cancer diagnosis prevented herfrom performing. we'll bring you that and the rest of the highlights from the weekend. and here at wimbledon, the forecast this week is set fair. it looks like its going to be all of this week.
7:02 am
today, showers in the forecast across the northern half of the country and it is also quite windy here but further south, although it sunny to start with, will see more cloud through the course of the day. more in 15 minutes. it's monday 1stjuly. our top story: riot police have used pepper spray and batons during clashes with protesters in hong kong overnight, on the 22nd anniversary of its shift from british to chinese rule. the protests are the latest against a proposed law that would allow suspected criminals to be sent to mainland china to face justice. the hong kong government has since suspended the plan, but protesters want it to be scrapped altogether. we're joined now by our correspondent karishma vaswani. karishma, remind us of the background to this story and tell us what's happened so far today?
7:03 am
just in the last few minutes, what we have seen here is some protesters have been trying to break in to the legislative council building over there to my right. they have been clashing with police and using trolleys to ram through the glass and trying to get into the building. the lease in return have been trying to push them back. you can see another group of protesters who are gathering their supplies, putting on their plastic overcoats, helmets, and there is even an ambulance here just in case any injuries. siren wails. we have seen at least one person walking away from this crowd with what appeared to be pepper spray that she had been sprayed with. at the very heart of this altercation is the controversy over that extradition bill. for the most part, most of the people from hong
7:04 am
kong i have met out on the street today, they are demonstrating peacefully. but there is a small, very angry group of people who want to get into that building, they want their demands heard, they want the extradition bill with carrie lam, the chief executive bill, to resign. they want the pressure —— the protesters that have been detained in the last two weeks of protests to be released. you talk about the lists of demands, how likely is it that those things will change? well, it is not clear they would change. the demonstrators have been consistent about what they want. they have consistently said it is not enough for carrie lam to suspend the extradition bill. they want it withdrawn altogether and it is a reflection of not just withdrawn altogether and it is a reflection of notjust the anger around the extradition bill stop many people have come out on the streets because of an unease and a real sense of dissatisfaction and disenfranchisement with hong kong
7:05 am
and the way it is being run. increasingly, people here are feeling like they are being swallowed up by china and that ageing is the one calling the shots in hong kong and that's what they don't want. —— and beijing. a 26—year—old woman, who was eight months pregnant and died from stab injuries at a house in croydon, has been named by police as kelly mary fauvrelle. her baby was delivered at the scene by paramedics on saturday and is in hospital in a critical condition. police said a 29—year—old man was in custody and a 37—year—old man had been released under investigation. scotland yard said it was keeping an open mind as to the motive. eu leaders have reconvened over breakfast to decide who should fill the topjobs. 0ur brussels reporter adam fleming joins us now. adam which positions are up for grabs and why are they significant?
7:06 am
it has been a bit weird actually because everyone arrived at teatime yesterday and the start was delayed while they were one—on—one is in the corridors and then started and then it was officially suspended because they couldn't reach agreement and then a whole lot of haggling started behind—the—scenes again with donald task meeting all 28 leaders one by one through the night as they tried to reach an agreement. —— donald tusk. there are five jobs up for grabs but 28 countries so it is like doing a puzzle where there are five slots and 28 pieces and trying to cram them all in where you can maximise the winners, minimise the losers and balance geography and north, south, east, whence, something for the big countries, something for the big countries, something for the smaller countries, something for the smaller countries, something for the countries that have joined the something for the countries that havejoined the eu recently, balance for the ones who have been
7:07 am
long—standing eu members. then you have political parties from the right, left, liberals and greens and its really tricky. they have all just sat down, all 28 of them, for brea kfast. just sat down, all 28 of them, for breakfast. i will imagine that we will find out quite soon whether they are getting nowhere or everywhere. you have explained it very well and we can see why it is taking a lot of time. hundreds of thousands of people in new york have lined the streets to watch the city's pride parade. the event marks the fiftieth anniversary of riots in 1969, between police and customers at the stonewall inn. a smaller unofficial march has also been held. its organisers claim to represent the true spirit of the gay rights movement.0ur lgbt correspondent ben hunte sent us this report from manhattan. new york has always been a major destination for lgbt pride festivals, but this weekend's events were their biggest yet. while a message of inclusion and equality could be felt across the city, there has been two duelling
7:08 am
pride parades marching through the streets. one with huge floats, major corporate sponsors and millions of people lining the streets. the other taking a completely stripped back approach, that many would not even recognise as a modern lgbt pride parade. chanting. the team behind it, reclaim pride, were protesting the commercialisation of pride with home—made banners, political chanting and a rally in central park. what we are seeing is they're co—opting this very important activist holiday as a corporate platform for profits. we want to return it to its roots, which was a protest march put on by activists in the wake of the 1969 stonewall riots. so, has pride become too commercial? virgin ceo sir richard branson doesn't think it matters. i think it's a start in the right direction. i don't think — i think they are better than the companies that are doing nothing. whilst people debate whether pride has lost its message, it is worth remembering that neither of this weekend's pride events
7:09 am
here would be welcome in several cities in the united states and in many countries across the world. ben hunte, bbc news, new york. 7:09. can you guess what is going on this week? is it wimbledon? 2019. lots of tennis, lots of queues. brea kfast‘s graham satchell is there for us this morning, with fans who have queued overnight in the hope of getting a ticket for the tournament. all the people you can see have camped out overnight and the queue is starting to move and the doors are going to open at 915. they start at 11 o'clock. dozens of people are here and it is one of the unique events in the sporting world because it is one of the only places you can buy a ticket on the day and see some tennis. we are going to have a quick chat. maxine, you camped overnight,
7:10 am
what was it like? it was a good atmosphere, really good fun. who are you hoping to see today?” atmosphere, really good fun. who are you hoping to see today? i did want to be roger federer he's on tomorrow so we're going to see djokovic today, he is on centre court. we have done it five times. its worth it, is it? yeah, fantastic. good luck today. allan thank you. the queueis luck today. allan thank you. the queue isjust heading off stop —— thank you. people are deliberately going in for tomorrow to see roger federer. how much do you love roger federer? a lot. if i could federer. how much do you love roger federer? a lot. if! could meet anyone, it would be him, 100%. when did you arrive? about 6:30 saturday morning. it is not the most co mforta ble morning. it is not the most comfortable of morning. it is not the most co mforta ble of weights morning. it is not the most comfortable of weights but its worth it. i hope you have a great day tomorrow. well done. roger federer
7:11 am
is one of the top seeds, now 37 or 38 and it would be amazing. djokovic plays today and this field of people arejust plays today and this field of people are just starting to work their way in. back to you guys. we can see the queue moving quite quickly behind you. thanks very much. a police officer in the uk is reportedly being attacked, on average, every 20 minutes according to a survey by the channel four programme, dispatches. it contacted 1,000 police officers and nearly 80% revealed they had been assaulted at least once in the last 12 months. the home office says it's boosting police numbers and aiming to recruit more than 3,000 new staff.let's listen to one officer's account of life on the beat. he wouldn't allow us entry, tried closing the door on me. i was with my colleague at the time and we were
7:12 am
trying to keep him talking for a bit. i stepped trying to keep him talking for a bit. istepped my trying to keep him talking for a bit. i stepped my foot in the door and as soon as i put my foot in the door to stop him from closing it, he stepped forward and head—butted me with quite some force and immediately i went blind in my left eye. at that time, i was really worried i had been blinded, i didn't realise it was just because it was a result of swelling. that is quite an injury, isn't it? we're joined now by daniel clark—neal, a journalist and former police officer and pc allan poole, an officer currently serving with gloucestershire police. you see that breeze and its really shocking. you had no idea you were going to face this when you went in. i had been in the police for nearly 18 years and i faced similar scenarios lots of times that i didn't expect that to happen. you talked about there being dogs in the house and that's what you're about. there was intelligence they could be dogsin there was intelligence they could be dogs in the house and generally if you are going to fight with the owner, the dogs are going to help out so i was quite worried about that. statistics are quite stark.
7:13 am
0nce that. statistics are quite stark. once every 20 minutes a police officer in the uk is attacked. absolutely. we bothjoined. iwas officer in the uk is attacked. absolutely. we bothjoined. i was in the met and we joined in 2002. i was assaulted in 2000 and four, 15 years ago, —— 2004. we talked about it and it wasn't that common. whereas now, one every 20 minutes. yeah, that's just unbelievable. as a police officer, you expect some rough and tumble, you expect people to resist you at times. part of the job. its crossing the line. do you feel less safe in thejob crossing the line. do you feel less safe in the job then when you first started ? safe in the job then when you first started? most definitely. i have noticed a huge shift in attitudes towards police. it is an everyday occurrence, virtually, that my collea g u es occurrence, virtually, that my colleagues and i are getting
7:14 am
assaulted and abused. is it to do with police numbers? is it a cultural difference? what might be some of the reasons behind the increase? we all know that numbers have been cut massively in the last ten years or so, with over 20,000 offices being cut. part of the problem might be that the police aren't able to provide the service they used to provide or want to provide so if you are calling the police, they are not there when you wa nt police, they are not there when you want them to be so when you do arrive as a police officer, you are already met with some animosity. definitely. we are in fear of losing touch with the public think once you lose trust and confidence, you are really on the back foot and i think its going to take a long, long time for the police to recuperate what we used to have. what would help, do you think? a boost in numbers. we are trying to do more with less and thatis are trying to do more with less and that is just not achievable.
7:15 am
are trying to do more with less and that isjust not achievable. we have a statement and i will read it to you, from the home office. nick heard he was responsible for police up heard he was responsible for police up and down the country, recruiting over 3000 more officers and staff and pcs owes. they are trying to recruit staff et cetera, do you think people will want to go into thejob? you think people will want to go into the job? you hear stories think people will want to go into thejob? you hear stories that think people will want to go into the job? you hear stories that you are telling and it makes it alarming for some people. i wouldn't want to join the police now. we are in agreement, it is not the job it was that we joined in 2002. why would you want to do it? the wages are lower now than they were when i joined 17 years ago, when we both joined 17 years ago, when we both joined 17 years ago, when we both joined 17 years ago, and that's crazy. with these offices being out there, being attacked daily. we are always ——we are notjust talking about injury, inc spat out. can you imagine that? people are spitting at you, kicking you, punching you. —— being spat out. i wouldn'tjoin now.
7:16 am
what about the mental health side of thejob? we what about the mental health side of the job? we are what about the mental health side of thejob? we are far what about the mental health side of the job? we are far more aware of this across society now. is that something, in terms of that impact, something, in terms of that impact, something you see changing? something officers are more willing and able to speak about these days? i think certainly in the last five yea rs i have i think certainly in the last five years i have seen huge number of police officers who have to go off with stress or suffering some kind of mental trauma. with the reduction in numbers, we have been asked to do so much more and we are facing these situations a lot more because there are situations a lot more because there a re less of situations a lot more because there are less of us. doctor miller from the university has spoken to 17,000 office rs the university has spoken to 17,000 officers and one in five are displaying some sign of post—traumatic stress disorder and thatis post—traumatic stress disorder and that is a big worry. thank you both for coming to see us. and the
7:17 am
documentary is on tonight at eight o'clock. some of those statistics are o'clock. some of those statistics a re really o'clock. some of those statistics are really shocking. let us know what you think about that. we would like to get your thoughts.” what you think about that. we would like to get your thoughts. i am loving your responses to glastonbury as well. the baby dancing to kylie. that's my favourite. carole is in wimbledon. sally will be speaking tojudy murray at about 7:30 this morning. wimbledon is the world ‘s oldest tournament. it takes its name from its location. 50,000 plants on site, a lot of which petunias and agapanthus a lot of which petunias and agapa nthus and they a lot of which petunias and agapanthus and they are in the wimbledon colours. how do they manage to stay so beautiful
7:18 am
considering the weather that rain and then extreme heat? we will be talking to someone about it later on. the weather should stay dry. blue skies with a little bit of cloud. more cloud developing so we will end up with sunny intervals. gentle breezes and 21 degrees. for the uk as a whole, sunny spells but also some showers. a lot of showers across scotland, soon getting into northern ireland, north—west england and north wales as well. this morning it is also pretty windy across scotland, gusts of up to 45 miles per hour. they will ease through the course of the day. showers easing as well. you're looking at a mixture of sunshine and showers. in northern england and northern ireland, some showers at the moment. quite a bit of cloud at
7:19 am
times as there will be across parts of wales and also the south—west of england. and the midlands. north wales you may see a shower. but in the east, more likely to have sunshine as we have here at wimbledon. through the course of the day, you can see the course that cloud takes. gusty winds slowly easing across scotland. temperatures wise we're talking about 13 in the north to about 21—22 as we pushed down towards london. not the dizzy heights we had on the weekend. 34.0 celsius was reached then. clear skies, a little bit of cloud around and before the end of the night, more showers coming into the north—west of scotland and drifting eastwards. nine and 13 the overnight lows. tomorrow, we start off with clear skies. some sunshine.
7:20 am

the mexican city of guadalajara has been hit by a severe hail storm, which dumped more than a metre of ice on the streets. cars were stranded and half buried, with drivers trapped inside. almost 500 houses were damaged. pictures and videos shared on social media show streets that look like glaciers, totally covered by solid ice. earlier in the week, the city in northern mexico, had been basking in temperatures of more than 30 degrees celsius. extraordinary pictures and you can see why it might be causing an author lot of damage. ——an awful lot of damage. it wimbledon this week! did you think about it with your jacket? must get influenced without
7:35 am
realising but yes, it is definitely a wimbledon top. it is perfectly wimbledon green. sally is in pink today. and sally has been taking a look around on day one of the championships and has also been talking about the serena williams —— talking about the serena williams —— talking to serena williams. we are talking fashion. i have gone a bit miami vice, so lots of people have been telling me, which i quite light. can you see the shoes? there are little gold tennis balls on these trainers. 0ne are little gold tennis balls on these trainers. one person that really, really liked my shoes this will —— this weekend, was of course, serena williams. she is really into herfashion actually. we know serena williams. she is really into her fashion actually. we know her as that impassioned, really aggressive style of tennis. we know her on court but meeting her, i have to say, she really surprised me because she was different to how i expected. she talked about her baby, marriage
7:36 am
and may begin —— meghan markle. she said she will simply carry on. my name's sally, lovely to meet you. sally's my alias! when i karaoke, my name is sally. highfive! what's your song? anything ‘90s. welcome to wimbledon. thank you. chasing your 24th grand slam title. you talk with such great positivity now about your image and your body image and your power and your strength. do you feel that part of your legacy will be to change how women are perceived on instagram, social media, television? yeah, for me it's really important to believe in yourself and it's hard, i can't imagine growing up nowadays in this time, but i have to imagine because i have a daughter that's going to grow up in this time so i kind of need to put myself
7:37 am
in that situation and what do i want out of that? that's how it kind of starts and for me, i do have a voice that i can use and how do i use that in a positive way? on your instagram, yourjob title is 0lympia's mum. how has becoming a mother changed you? becoming a mum, it's changed my perspective on a lot of things and also its changed me in terms of wanting to leave a legacy, i want to be this positive person for my daughter and ijust want always to just, everything i do i want to do it for my daughter and i never obviously had that motivation before. you seem to have the parenting thing totally down. i totally do not. i'm a mess. how are you a mess? ijust put on some concealer and i'm here. that's what we all do! and i'm pretending that everything's fine. do you want to make things maybe different to how they were for you growing up? i think parents nowadays are like, oh, we want this, we want our kids to do this and we want this and we want this, but, well, we didn't
7:38 am
turn out that bad so, you know, i'm definitely going to incorporate a lot of stuff that my parents did with me. i had a really good environment growing up and i loved having sisters around. i can't provide that for 0lympia just right now. yet! who knows? yet. have you had any chance to talk to your friend meghan markle about maybe giving some parenting advice or pass on some words of wisdom? i never pass on words of wisdom because i think everybody who has a kid, especially when you just have a baby, it is so difficult tojust be. that's the truth. it's just like get through the first three months and four months and then we can talk. what motivates you now? what gets you out of bed, what gets you into the gym and onto the court? i don't want to not play tennis. i love doing what i do but i don't want to not do it at the best level that i can. so if i go out on the court and i'm not training as hard as i want to, it's just not going to work out for me so that's my motivation.
7:39 am
looking ahead into this tournament, how do you feel physically? do you feel right there and ready? i feel good now. it's been a rough time for me this year but i'm finally at a place where like, oh, my god, i'm not in pain, oh, my god, let's do this! this is a good place for me to be at. so you feel not in pain physically, ready to go? totally, yes, and i couldn't be more excited about it so now i'm just happy. are really, really interesting woman to meet. who would have thought i would have so much in common? sally is her karaoke name. i love that. away from the tennis, we will talk more about the tennis in a moment. let's look back to yesterday and england's victory at edge bidston. — make edgbaston. our sports correspondent joe wilson reports.
7:40 am
any street is an opportunity. in birmingham, just a fraction of india's huge industry, cricket. india expects, well, it always does. but this world cup began with england's greatest expectations because they can do this. the old team restored at the top of the batting order. jonny bairstow, jason roy. a160 run partnership. bairstow ended with 111 on his own and even the english crowd was back in form. got it! a bit of wizardry from ben stokes and england had a formidable total 337. india looked to their captain — virat kohli is that and more. he gave the grandstands belief. rohit sharma gave them a century. now something had to be done. calling a birmingham boy. chris woakes' delivery ended rohit sharma's innings. and only in the final stages
7:41 am
did england seem safe, but it still needed woakes arriving about now. a victory by 31 runs. well, indian supporters needn't be too downhearted, this was their first defeat of this world cup, and england are not home and dry yet — they may well have to win their final group game to make the semifinals, but suddenly, it all seems possible again. joe wilson, bbc news, edgbaston. there's only a little bit longer to wait for england's huge semi—final against usa at the women's world cup. the match is tomorrow evening live on bbc one and is the lionesses second consecutive world cup semi—final. and although they face the favourites and reigning champions manager phil neville is not concerned. i'm not worried about anything, i never do, never worry about the opposition. we concentrate a lot on what we can do, how we're going to try and win a game. and our strengths and our values and the style of play
7:42 am
that we want to play is the most important thing. some news just some newsjust coming in over the last half hour or so. former newcastle manager rafael benitez says the club "did not share his vision". he's been speaking for the first time since it was announced he was leaving st james's park last week. benitez, who's contract expired yesterday, said he felt like he "belonged" at newcastle and wanted to stay. he indicated he wanted a longer—term deal, rather thanjust a contract extension. benitez led newcastle to a 13th place finish in the premier league last season. for the first time this formula one season someone other than a mercedes driver has won a grand prix. in austria, red bull's max verstappen took the lead from ferrari's charles leclerc with a couple of laps to go, but the move prompted a stewards investigation which took three hours to confirm victory.
7:43 am
championship leader lewis hamilton failed to get on the podium for the first time this season, finishing fifth. former british number one andy murray is making his anticipated return to wimbledon following hip surgery, which ruled him out of the tournament last year. one person watching him from the stands will be his mum, judy. we'll catch up with her in a minute. but first, let's look at the work she's doing to inspire the next generation of tennis stars.
7:44 am
the first time i came up here and saw the courts that were derelict. i saw the courts that were derelict. i saw an opportunity. let's get these resurfaced so the local community can use them. lack of public facilities, lack of courts in the state school, lack of indoor facilities and the only way to really combat that is with an injection of cash. jamie and andy gave us so much leverage in terms of profile and opportunity and when they don't play that red —— that leverage isn't so it has to be now. come on in! we are going to get used to just handling the racket. scattered with the other hand. step across. we are trying to build a workforce to grow tennis within the north glasgow area and parents are pa rt north glasgow area and parents are part of that workforce. there will be another andy and anotherjamie out there because there is talent everywhere but not all talent has the opportunity to develop. i'm
7:45 am
giving people a chance to shine. wise words from our duty there, all about the work that you are doing. —— from ourjudy. how hard is it the kids that don't have the opportunities and facilities or a racket? this is the perfect time of year, everybody is interested in tennis because it is wimbledon. for this two weeks and probably two weeks afterwards, it is a huge opportunity for tanners to catch all that interest and get people out onto the court. you need local facilities. it needs to be public facilities. it needs to be public facilities so whether it is a public park or court attached to skate —— state schools. people who drive activity are crucial because without activity, the courts on their own often don't get the job done.
7:46 am
a couple of stories of people coming here against the odds? an english lad, who lost his parents when he was young and was brought up by his grandmother in a council house. he got a scholarship to the united states. he won the national collegiate championships which guarantees you a drawcard in the us 0pen guarantees you a drawcard in the us open and wimbledon gave him one. i'm going out to watch him.” open and wimbledon gave him one. i'm going out to watch him. i think your microphone is struggling so we will share mine. where might we see him? he is going to be playing in the main draw in the men's single. how is andy? i have not seen him for the last couple of days. i think he is 0k. he is so excited to be playing
7:47 am
again and happy, without the limp, without the pain. it is just great to see him out there. he will be playing in the men's double for sure. and he may be playing in the mixed doubles. surely he is not struggling to find a partner. serena was an option. that would be wonderful. jo konta, after a difficult defeat in france, mentally how is she? finals in rome, finals in paris. that is fantastic. not as many matches on the ground leading up many matches on the ground leading up to wimbledon that she would have liked but she has a good game for grass, the big serve, she has been
7:48 am
fomenting with the slice and dropped shot. i think if she keeps the distractions out... it is the mental game for her, surely? a lot of pressure being the british number one and a lot of expectations from the media, the fans and from herself and the people around her. it is about being calm and just trusting how you can play. as you can play well. she has been in the semis here before. it is a tough time for the brits, huge opportunities but a tough time as well because all eyes are on you. the sun has come out so now an appropriate time to hand the show over to you because you have a special friend. i will follow it over to the lady in the red. i wanted to come and join you but i am not allowed, such a bad influence. you will be pleased to
7:49 am
hear the weather will stay dry this week. isn't that typical. behind me is scott number one with this brand spanking retractable roof. for the first time, we have two retractable roofs. 0ne first time, we have two retractable roofs. one in court number one and one on centre court but it does not look like we will need them this week anyway. the forecast is also dry. starting off on a sunny note but more cloud during the day so sunny intervals. a gentle north—westerly breeze in the afternoon with highs of 21 degrees. a mixture of sunshine and showers for all of us. most of the showers across scotland, northern ireland, north—west england and north wales. quite a lot of cloud in the west. the easter seeing brighter skies. that will change as we go through the day. nine o'clock this morning across scotland, we still have the showers and gusty winds of up to 45
7:50 am
miles per hour. easing through the course of the day. for northern ireland, cloud, showers and some sunshine at times. north—east england, seeing something sunnier. for wales, a cloudy start with showers in the north. a cloudy start across south—west england and the midlands. further east, we're back into the sunshine. the cloud travelling towards the east turning the sunshine hazy so sunny intervals rather than blue skies. 13—22 for the temperatures. as we head for the evening and overnight, many of the showers will fade, the wind will ease, clearer spells developing and front coming in introducing more showers through the night towards the east. temperature was tonight,
7:51 am
we're looking at about nine in the north to about 13 as we push further south. tomorrow morning, where we had the clear skies, we will see sunshine first thing. a north—westerly breeze, rather like today, bringing more cloud moving across all areas so again sunny intervals rather than blue skies. some showers getting through the central low lens. temperatures up to 21 or 22. also with mentioning the pollen levels because across england and wales, they are high or very high for northern ireland and scotla nd high for northern ireland and scotland they are low or moderate. some of us will need to get the yankees out if you are allergic. they stash the handkerchiefs out.
7:52 am
i wanted to just take you to hong kong with live pictures. crowds of protesters have been on the street today, particularly marking the 22nd anniversary of the handover stop protest i held every year but over the last two weeks 2 million people have taken to the streets calling for the extradition bill to be dropped, to china. it has been suspended but they would like to see it drop. we came on air this morning, it was quiet, as far as we could see it, but in the last couple of hours it has been building and it appears that trying to break into what we understand is the legislative building. 13 officers have been admitted to hospital. doused in a fluid which we think is drain cleaner. we have been told that if you look at the live pictures, there is also more
7:53 am
information on the website, police are waiting inside that building, they are holding a banner wanting they are holding a banner wanting the protesters not to charge or they will use force. pictures froze for a moment but quite a large crowd gathered. it will be interesting to see what lord patten thinks, the british governor of hong kong, the final one back into the 1990s. his ta ke final one back into the 1990s. his take on the activists. so many people on the streets over the last few weeks and today is a particularly significant day because of this is the 22nd anniversary of that switch of rule from the uk. we will keep you right up—to—date with what is going on. and we will speak to lord patten at 8:10 a.m.. there's been a change to the rules if you want to switch your mobile phone provider.
7:54 am
steph's been looking into it. what changes can we expect? if you want to change provider, you normally have to ring your old provider. it is an awkward conversation. it is because people feel as though they are going to be taught into staying. the old rules meant you had to ring your current provider and tell them you wanted a change. they would quite often keep you hanging, try and sell you a new deal or make you jump through loads of hoops before the phone regulator — 0fcom — says almost a third of switchers find it difficult to cancel their mobile service. it is the biggest barrier stopping people from changing even if the new deal could actually be better value. in terms of the change, are they trying to simplify things? yes. it is basically about you not having to
7:55 am
ring your provider anymore instead you can send a text message. today you can send a text message. today you can send one text with the letter p to that number. that is a free text in your current provider will respond with a cord. that is one you will give to your new provider. they will also tell you whether there are any termination fees you might have to pay in case you are leaving early. 0r fees you might have to pay in case you are leaving early. or if you are aps ago person you will get your balance. it is valid for 30 days. you should be able to get your new phones within a day by your new provider. is there a catch? there has been a lot of positivity about
7:56 am
this but people say it is not as easy to switch as it should be, particularly when you compare into electricity. they do not go far enough. the energy sector, the financial services sector, the new provider handles the entire switch. this is still one step away from that because you still have to give a text message but it is an opportunity to switch to a better deal. the recent... you cannot be charged for your new and your old phone. as soon as you switch, it has to transfer so that should make things easier. never switched my phone. never switched provider. but now you can keep the same number... you could do that before... i
7:57 am
realise that. i have had mine since i was 16. it never runs out of battery. thank you very much. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london news, i'm victoria hollins. police are appealing for help finding a 12—year—old boy who has been missing for a week. daisharn carr from croydon was last seen around 2pm last monday when he was leaving a relative's home. detectives say they have carried out extensive searches already, and his family are becoming increasingly worried. the mayor is to warn that putting off action to tackle climate change is adding to the problem. sadiq khan will kick off london's first climate action week later, which will bring together industry leaders and campaigners of all ages in a series of events.

looks like it is going to stay dry all week. the forecast today there scotland, northern ireland and england, we are looking at sunny intervals but very windy in the north. i will have more in 15 minutes. it's monday 1stjuly. our top story. violent protests are taking place in hong kong as demonstrators try to smash their way into the legislative council building, on the 22nd anniversary of its shift from british to chinese rule. riot police have used pepper spray and batons during clashes with protesters and 13 officers have been admitted to hospital after being doused in a fluid — thought to be drain cleaner. the protests are the latest against a law that would allow suspected criminals to be sent to mainland china to facejustice. the hong kong government has since suspended the plan, but protesters want it to be scrapped altogether.
8:03 am
we have been watching the scenes all morning and over the last half an hour we have seen protesters trying to break in what we understand as the legislative council. the scenes are changing all the time. up to 2 million people had been taking to the streets calling for that particular bill to be dropped. police in the past had clashed with protesters. we will talk to lord patten hopefully in the next ten minutes here on bbc breakfast also our correspondent in hong kong for us this morning. we will be back there very shortly for you. elsewhere... a 26—year—old woman, who was eight months pregnant and died from stab injuries at a house in croydon, has been named by police as kelly mary fauvrelle. her baby was delivered at the scene by paramedics on saturday and is in hospital in a critical condition. police said a 29—year—old man was in custody and a 37—year—old man had been released under investigation.
8:04 am
scotland yard said it was keeping an "open mind as to the motive". eu leaders have reconvened over breakfast to decide who should fill the top jobs. 0ur brussels reporter adam fleming joins us now. discussions were taking place overnight and eve said they were having breakfast, but you would hopefully have news, have you got any news? they are still having brea kfast. any news? they are still having breakfast. whether that is a good or a bad sign, i don't know. but we will find out at the end of that practice, have they managed to ove rco m e practice, have they managed to overcome their deadlock and they have got some names or are they totally stuck and are they going to carry on talking today, remember they have been talking for more than 12 hours, orare they have been talking for more than 12 hours, or are they going to come backin 12 hours, or are they going to come back ina 12 hours, or are they going to come back in a couple of weeks and revisit this whole issue. there are five jobs revisit this whole issue. there are fivejobs up revisit this whole issue. there are five jobs up for grabs revisit this whole issue. there are fivejobs up for grabs running the organisations that run the eu, whether it is the european commission, whether it is the european council, the organisation that runs the summits, whether it is
8:05 am
the central bank, the parliament of the central bank, the parliament of the foreign policy chief. five jobs up the foreign policy chief. five jobs upforgrabs at the foreign policy chief. five jobs up for grabs at roughly the same time. but there are 28 countries, soon to be 27 countries and everyone wa nts a soon to be 27 countries and everyone wants a piece of the pie. it is about balancing that so you get enough winners, minimise the losers. you have got to balance geography in north, east, south and west. big countries, small countries, smaller countries, small countries, smaller countries, bigger countries, you have got to have enough men in their women in there. you have the ce ntre—left women in there. you have the centre—left parties, the centre—right parties, the liberals and the greens. it is like a massive wedding seating plan and is proving very tricky. 0vernight it looked like they were proposing a guy called frans timmerman is, from the netherlands, one of the vice presidents at the moment. they were going to promote to to be the commission president. but he is not popular with some countries in eastern europe because they have had fights with him in his currentjob.
8:06 am
also prime ministers in the centre—right said hang on, the ce ntre—left centre—right said hang on, the centre—left parties didn't do well in the european election parliament elections in may. so that is one of the arguments going on in brussels in the last few hours. it sounds like a very complicated puzzle, thank you very much. we are about three hours away from the start of play at wimbledon this year. is that all it is? brea kfast‘s graham satchell is there for us this morning, with fans who have queued overnight in the hope of getting a ticket for the tournament. hopefully you are sharing breakfast with somebody preparing to watch today? i have missed breakfast but i have been invited to share this space with louise and louise. this row of tents is not for today, it is
8:07 am
for tomorrow, which is pretty bonkers, when did you get here? 1pm on saturday. why are you not going into day? going to see roger federer tomorrow. huge roger federer fan. andrea begovic fan but primarily a tennis fan. this is a lot of effort, you have been camping out three nights to get in there must be a better way to organise this, or do you love the queue? i love the queue, it is one of the best part of wimbledon, it is fun, easy people you haven't seen for the entire year as it is chilled and relaxed, brilliant. you could get these tickets online, we have got technology? of course, but this way we can choose the courts, it is quintessentially british, you have to relax into the spirit of it, see it as to relax into the spirit of it, see itasa to relax into the spirit of it, see it as a festival, bit of a holiday before the competition. this is an
8:08 am
amazing line of tents, with people from all over the world, from belgium, from japan, these are proper roger federer fans who follow him around the world. but, this line is going out. these people will be going into tomorrow. but the rest of the park is full of people who are trying to get into day. the first 500 they reckon, if you camp overnight get onto centre court. all these guys going in now will probably go to the main ground. but the capacity at wimbledon is 39,000 every day and it remains one of the only british major sporting events where you can turn up on the day and get in and see, you don't have to go online and take your chances. that is it from us on a beautiful day here at wimbledon, it is back to you. thank you very much, we will be back there in the next half an hour or so back there in the next half an hour orso and back there in the next half an hour or so and sally has done an
8:09 am
interview with serena williams and we will be able to hear that interview as well. what are some of sport is, wimbledon, the world cup, england play tomorrow in the semifinals. we have got the nipple to come. i was in ireland a few weeks ago, where the open is taking place at portrush. they are hoping that somebody from ireland will be challenging for the title. it will be fantastic. have a lovely day if you are going to wimbledon, lucky for you. back to our top story this morning, and tension is mounting on the streets of hong kong, as pro—democracy activists clash with police, on the anniversary of the handoverfrom britain to mainland china. this is on the anniversary of the
8:10 am
handover of power from britain to mainland china. we'rejoined now from hong kong by our correspondent karishma vaswani. karishma, remind us of the background to this story and tell us what's happened so far today? you can see a lot of these young people out here today in the unofficial uniform, the black t—shirt, the gas max and one person came round to give me a helmet because they are worried about police presence coming out to the streets later today. 0ver police presence coming out to the streets later today. over the last couple of hours we have seen this kind of altercation between protesters and the police. at the heart of this of course is the extradition bill, which has been suspended, but for many people here it is simply not enough. they don't wa nt it is simply not enough. they don't want the extradition bill to exist and they wanted to be withdrawn. it would have allowed people from hong kong to be extradited to mainland
8:11 am
china and face chinese courts if it had gone through. that's what you see the show of support, the numbers out on the streets today. july the 1st is typically the day when people mark the handover anniversary of hong kong to mainland china. there isa hong kong to mainland china. there is a march planned later today but what we have seen on the street is some anger and frustration with a small group of protesters trying to break into the legislative council building over there and riot police standing by, trying to push them back. we are hearing karishma, a number of officers, 13 officers have gone to hospital. you were there this morning and talking about the fa ct this morning and talking about the fact it is a very organised protest and they are trying to get into the legislative building. is it true, i was reading in the last hour police are in the building holding up a banner saying don't charge at us, because if you do, we will respond? yes, what we understand is they have
8:12 am
u nfu rled yes, what we understand is they have unfurled a black flag and that is there sort of final warning, telling protesters to leave the area. a small group of them had been using trolleys to ram the glass doors of the legislative building and in response we understand police have sprayed some with pepper spray, you can feel it in the air. it is stinging eyes here and many people have put on masks already. they put cling film around their arms to ensure they don't get affected. this kind of scene is what we have seen throughout the day here in hong kong. it is a sense of growing frustration and anger amongst young people who don't appear to want to leave the streets just yet. people who don't appear to want to leave the streetsjust yet. he was saying and we have been following this story obviously for a few weeks, the bill at the centre of these protests has been suspended. do you think those pro—democracy campaigners on the streets behind you, do you think they feel they are being listened to? i don't think
8:13 am
they do think they are being listened to. one hasjust they do think they are being listened to. one has just handed they do think they are being listened to. one hasjust handed me a gas mask and that shows amongst the vast majority of people here, there is a sense of not being heard. i think that is why you see this disaffection, in a sense. young people here, it is notjust about the extradition bill, it is also about the fact people don't feel they are getting the kind of economic prospects they want, they don't have the jobs they want and trying to get onto the property ladder is very difficult. they blame a lot of that on chinese influence. the number of mainland chinese coming into hong kong, taking up theirjobs and dimming the economic prospects. that is also what is behind the anger and frustration on the streets of hong kong. ok, karishma, take care on the streets of hong kong. reporting this morning on those many people campaigning this morning. we were showing you the live pictures of them trying to
8:14 am
get into the legislative building, ramming the glass doors with trolleys. karishma was saying the police have unfurled a black flag which is a final warning to protesters which means, if you don't stand down and charge at us, we will respond with what they call appropriate falls. —— force. let's speak now to lord patten, who was the final british governor of hong kong. thank you forjoining us. what is your assessment of the situation today? i am sorry about these scenes this morning i hope they don't detract from the march later on today, which i am sure will be as peaceful and serious as the two previous ones which one was followed by1 million people and the other one by two million people. it is inevitable given some of the policing with this violence. it isn't helpful for people to behave in this way on either side. we know the bill they have been protesting
8:15 am
about and you talk about the 2 million people being on the streets of hong kong, has been protesters. protesters have said that is not enough for them? well, i think what they wanted was for it to be made clear that the bill had been dropped and not just suspended. clear that the bill had been dropped and notjust suspended. because frankly, they don't trust the government. the other thing i think is reasonable to ask for, is a full public enquiry into the way that policing of the earlier demonstrations was carried out. i think if those two things had been done already, then perhaps there wouldn't have been this violence by a fringe today. i think that it is very, very important to get into a dialogue with hong kong and notjust seem a puppet of beijing. we know what is supposed to happen, they will be one country, two systems. is this an indication that is breaking down? unfortunately, ithink
8:16 am
this an indication that is breaking down? unfortunately, i think if it has been breaking down it is because of the behaviour of the government in beijing under shi jingling. of the behaviour of the government in beijing under shijingling. i think particularly ever since the democracy demonstrations in 2014, they have been throttling hong kong, they have been throttling hong kong, they have been involving themselves far more in hong kong's affairs. i think the last straw as far as the great majority of people who are concerned, was getting rid of the firewall between the rule of law in hong kong and what passes for the law in communist china. i think that really did worry people make them upset. there is a terrific piece along those lines by the great chinese novelist, who expressed his concern about what that would mean for the freedoms of hong kong. you sometimes have to demonstrate just because it is the right thing to do because it is the right thing to do because you are trying to make the right things happen. there is a
8:17 am
seriousness about what people in hong kong are doing, which should mean that we are much more interested and concerned here and the rest of the world. that is a question i wanted to ask you because it seems right now at toxic situation, is there anything the british government should be doing, in your view? sure, there are responsibilities on the british government. we signed the joint declaration, which is an international treaty for 50 years after 1997. it is lodged at the un. it gave us responsibilities before 1997. it was to make sure we kept china in touch with what was happening and did our best by the people of hong kong. now it should be china which is prepared to have a dialogue with us about what is happening in hong kong and the extent to which it is keeping its side of the bargain. frankly, the chinese have been breaking their word on thejoint chinese have been breaking their word on the joint declaration. they claim it doesn't operate after 1997.
8:18 am
the british government should make clear in the united nations in europe, as long as we are there, and elsewhere that it does apply for 50 yea rs elsewhere that it does apply for 50 years after 1997 and we will be absolutely determined to make sure that china keeps its side of the bargain. ok, thank you for giving us your analysis. if i could ask you a little bit about the conservative leadership contest, which i know you will be following closely. which of the two candidates do you think will be able to get a better deal on brexit, for example? look, ifind it shameful to compare the seriousness of the whole, despite what has been happening this morning, the seriousness and consent of people in hong kong, hundreds and thousands of them with the sort of appalling debate we're having in this country. with two candidates are vying for the affections of a small minority
8:19 am
of people who support conservatives. probably a minority even of the activists, many of whom who have come in from the brexit party. the debate is awful. with the latest campaign on both sides are making john mcdonnell, with all the tax pledges and spending pledges they are making, making the labour party look like fiscal moderates. how we are going to, in future, if it comes to an election, labour gains conservative, make a case out against labour being irresponsible, heaven alone knows given what these two candidates have been promising. i think you have talked about it in the past, the impact on the conservative party about the nature of discussions, if borisjohnson for example, became leader, will you be voting for the conservative party?” have made it absolutely clear i don't intend to leave the conservative party. the problem is the conservative party has been leaving people like me and ken
8:20 am
clarke and michael heseltine and others. that is the conservative party i believe in, one in favour of the united kingdom, one in favour of a good relationship with business, not telling business to clear off, which actually believes in moderation, strong institutions and not baroque in parliaments if parliament doesn't agree with you. that is my conservative party and i will be a member of it until i die. lord patten, thank you for your time here on bbc breakfast. thank you for being aware with us, i am aware people are just switching their tvs are now, because they want to know about the weather. carol is at wimbledon for us this morning as final preparations get underway ahead of the start of the championships this afternoon. for others, dry as a bone, but for other people, who knows. there are 15,000 flowers on site and we have
8:21 am
liberally, fans, salvia and these lovely clematis. what a beautiful colour. they are all in the wimbledon colours. they will be getting a drink, we don't think this week, because the forecast for wimbledon is mostly dry. totally dry this week. if it changes i will keep you posted. the forecast for the rest of the uk today is a mixture of some sunny spells but also a few showers. the showers are across scotland, northern ireland, north—west england and north wales. not surprisingly we have a lot of cloud associated with the showers which will move eastward through the day. instead of blue skies we have now, we will be looking at sunny intervals. the other thing about the forecast is it is very windy across scotla nd forecast is it is very windy across scotland with gusts 40 to 45 miles an hour. that will ease by the time we get to the afternoon but all of us will feel the north—westerly breeze. at scotland at 9am we have a
8:22 am
lot of cloud and showers and it is still gusty. north—west england and northern ireland seem showers as well and a bit of cloud. north—east england seeing some sunshine and also north wales prone to those showers, but the rest of wales, south—west england and the midlands off toa south—west england and the midlands off to a cloudy start. the further east you travel in england, the more likely you are to see some sunshine. through the course of the day, the sunshine will be hazy because we will have the cloud coming in on a north—westerly breeze from the west, pushing over towards the east. but it will still remain dry. many of the showers will fade and temperatures, we are looking at about 13 in the north to highs of 21 or 22 about 13 in the north to highs of 21 or22 in the about 13 in the north to highs of 21 or 22 in the south—east. so not the dizzy heights of 34 we recorded at heathrow and northolt on saturday, making it the warmest day of the year so far. we not expecting us temperatures again for a while at least. 0vernight we will have clear skies around. showers coming in
8:23 am
across the north west of scotland, moving east across the north of scotla nd moving east across the north of scotland during the night and the winds will ease. temperatures, falling to about nine to 13. tomorrow, where we have had the clear skies by night is where we will start off with some sunshine. but rather like today we will pull ina bit but rather like today we will pull in a bit more cloud from the west across all areas. so we still see sunshine but looking at sunny intervals. in scotland some showers, some getting into the central lowla nds some getting into the central lowlands but there are showers but not all of us will catch one. the highs are 21 or 22. pollen levels, i am standing in the wrong place but it is grass pollen. for england and wales, high or very high today. for scotla nd wales, high or very high today. for scotland and northern ireland we are looking at low or moderate. thank you very much, carol. i love when we get a sneak preview of a mother before everyone else. we will
8:24 am
hear sally's interview with serena williams shortly. but something else that was high on the agenda... from "stormzy", to "the killers" and "kylie" — this year's glastonbury line up was a cracking one for fans, but what is the festival like for some of the artists making their worthy farm debut? 0ur reporter fiona lamdin was waiting to meet two bands, "idles" and "fontaines dc", as they came off stage.
8:25 am
this is one of the most magnificent moments in our lives. and to be playing one of glastonbury‘s biggest stages for their debut shows just how far idles have come in the last two years. we've waited 12 years to play here. this punk rock bands latest album, joy is an act of resistance, reached number five in the album charts. we met front man, joe talbot, just moments after they came off stage. you've got to be quick cause i'm doing something on tv. they have a huge following. meaning our interview took a while to get going. you're amazing, one of the best gigs in my life. this was the 12th selfie... i'm so proud... a stunning audience. and to my wife and child, i'm never going to forget it, it's the best thing ever. half—way through their performance, itjust got too much forjoe and, within minutes, his wife and newborn baby came up on stage. that's my baby's face. she was asleep through the whole thing. when did you think, this is happening? i have made it? right now. really, tonight? this is stunning. sometimes in your life, it is ok to allow yourself to take a breath and accept
8:26 am
what you have done and pat yourself on the back. and that moment was tonight? yeah. i'm so happy. later in the backstage bar, more people delighted to see joe but these are not just regular fans, meet fontaines dc, a less well—known band who are also signed by the same label. a postpunk bank from dublin, they only released their first album in april. they may be less famous than idles right now but they were still spotted by a keen fan. earlier they played on glastonbury‘s john peel stage. definitely their biggest gig to date. you think i'd love to do that but it is always in that kind of like a sphere of dreams. where you kind of think, they are just dreams and then suddenly they stop being that. playing here at glastonbury was a first for these bands, something they could both only dream of, a performance, an experience
8:27 am
