good morning, welcome to breakfast with charlie stayt and nina warhurst. our headlines today: regrets and recriminations — former prime minister, david cameron says borisjohnson and michael gove "left the truth at home" during the 2016 referendum campaign. desperate housewives star felicity huffman is sentenced to m days in prison for her involvement in us college admissions scandal. english high streets are set to get a share of 95 million pounds to help them compete with online retailers. europe begin day two of the solheim cup with a slender one point lead over the usa. the morning's foursomes start in the next few minutes day, increasing cloud, and
8:02 am
strengthening winds. it's saturday 14th september. our top story: the former prime minister, david cameron, has criticised borisjohnson and michael gove accusing them of trashing his government with what he describes as their appalling behaviour, during the brexit referendum. in his first major interview since leaving downing street three years ago, mr cameron has told the times newspaper that the result of the referendum left him feeling depressed and that he worries about it every day. here's our political correspondent helen catt. after years of carefully keeping himself out of the headlines, former prime minister david cameron is once again the big news in town, and that may not be welcome news for boris johnson. he and his cabinet colleague michael gove are accused by mr cameron, in his new book, of behaving "appallingly" during the 2016 referendum. he actually, in the book — i said to him "you call michael gove, who was a close personalfriend, ‘mendacious”', and as for borisjohnson, and he says he has always found him
8:03 am
amusing, he has worked well with him in the past, but he doesn't always trust him. david cameron also admits that he failed, and that some people will neverforgive him for holding a referendum. he says he thinks about it every single day, but believes that calling it was right and he felt it was inevitable. he's also clearly apologetic. he's clearly been very traumatised by the whole experience and that comes out in it, so it's very far from a strongly self—defending, self—authenticating book. it's a really pretty honest book in which he admits to many mistakes, but not the mistake of calling the referendum. but claims made by mr cameron in his interview with the times magazine that the referendum campaign turned into a terrible tory psychodrama have been disputed by a prominent leave campaigner.
8:04 am
as far as millions of people — 33 million people voted — 17.4 million of them voted because they wanted to leave the european union. they did not care a fig about tory psychodramas or anything else. most of them put aside party loyalties and voted on the issue. david cameron has also weighed in on the row over the suspension of parliament, describing using prorogation as a sharp practice that has rebounded. he admits, though, that there is a blockage and for that reason, the man who has become defined by one referendum now says holding another cannot be ruled out. helen catt, bbc news. and in the last hour we've heard from the culture secretary nicky morgan, who told us what she would do in the event of second referendum. if it comes to a point where you are asked to vote again in a referendum, can you give a give me a straight a nswer can you give a give me a straight answer as to how would you would vote 7 answer as to how would you would vote? i would vote to remain.
8:05 am
let's get more on this with our political correspondent susana mendonca. nicky morgan was speaking to us about other things today, but the issues around brexit and how it works within the cabinet, it's interesting, her answer there? very interesting, her answer there? very interesting, and i think it is a sign of the cracks that are surfacing within the cabinet. we had amber rudd who left the cabinet over the defections and the issue as to whether she thought borisjohnson was working towards a deal. nicky morgan said she was going to stay in the room, that she was ruling out quitting, but she is of course somebody who does feel uncomfortable, somebody who does feel u nco mforta ble, clearly, somebody who does feel uncomfortable, clearly, with the idea of a no—deal brexit. but this idea of a no—deal brexit. but this idea of a referendum. borisjohnson, he talks about doing a deal with the european union and if not, leaving with no deal. a referendum is not
8:06 am
even factored into his plan, and it is not something he is talking about. the fact that he has is cabinet member talking about if there was a referendum, she would vote for remain, that is not helpful to him, but she is somebody who campaigned for remain previously so perhaps no surprise in that respect. the fact that she is staying in his cabinet at the moment, they will be questions asked about whether nicky morgan could be the next one to go. we shall wait and see. there is a lot of discomfort about the issue of brexit, also about the issue of borisjohnson purging, brexit, also about the issue of boris johnson purging, which brexit, also about the issue of borisjohnson purging, which is the word that has been used, those 21 conservative rebels who voted against him. so, this does raise a lot of questions, it is not helpful to borisjohnson lot of questions, it is not helpful to boris johnson ahead lot of questions, it is not helpful to borisjohnson ahead of those talks. the talks he will be having with the european union this week. other parties will be looking on at this, talk about the idea of a referendum. the lib dems are talking about revoking article 50, so
8:07 am
actually stopping brexit in its tracks, but if not, having another referendum where the issue would be put to the people again. the fact that you've got a cabinet minister saying that she would vote for remain in another referendum is going to, i suppose, inspire those who are talk about the need for another referendum. thank you very much. the liberal democrats party conference gets under way today. felicity huffman, the hollywood actor known for her role in the tv series desperate housewives, has been sentenced to two weeks in prison for her part in a college admissions scandal. she paid $15,000 — that's around £12,000 — to falsify her daughter's exam results. here's our north america correspondent david willis. reporter: felicity, are you sorry for what you did? it's the walk—on part no hollywood actress would ever want to land. felicity huffman arrived for sentencing, accompanied by her husband william h macy, having admitted paying to have her daughter's test results doctored in the hope of landing
8:08 am
a place at a top university. the college admissions scandal has seen 33 parents charged with bribing exam administrators and sports coaches via a middleman. it has also served to reinforce the view that the university admissions system here is inexorably slanted towards the rich. prosecutors accused felicity huffman of acting out of a sense of entitlement. she blamed her actions on parental insecurity, and in a statement released after the hearing wrote: felicity huffman‘s sentence will start in six weeks‘ time, meaning that, in theory, she could spend next sunday on the red carpet at the emmys.
8:09 am
her netflix series when they see us has been nominated for a string of emmy awards. her defence team had argued for probation and community service, no time in prison. prosecutors countered, saying that being confined to a hollywood mansion with an infinity pool hardly constituted meaningful punishment. she will begin her sentence on october 25. david willis, bbc news, washington. 69 high streets in england are to get a share of £95 million in an effort to help them compete with online retailers. minsters say they want to breathe new life into historic buildings. simon jones has more. the high street is struggling with big names and small retailers alike forced out of business as more of us shop online. the government wants to reverse that trend. it says its multimillion—pound investment will help transform disused historic buildings into shops, houses and community
8:10 am
centres across england, making them more attractive places to live, work and visit. towns and cities had to bid for the funding, which was announced in may. since the start of the year, an average of 16 shops have been closing every day on the high street in the uk. the £95 million cash injection will be shared among 69 towns and cities. the biggest winner is the midlands, which will receive £21 million. here in north london, tottenham high road is going to receive £2 million. that's going to be used to do up shop fronts and facades to try to boost regeneration in the area. the government says it wants to preserve buildings forfuture generations, while at the same time, making them work for the modern world. bedford is another town that will benefit. but it's a big challenge. a previous government initiative that saw the retail expert mary portas brought in to save town centres had mixed success, and labour says it is a decade of austerity that has decimated
8:11 am
the high street. simon jones, bbc news. as they say in game of thrones, winter is coming, to the french town of bayeux. it's been home to the bayeux tapestry for centuries. and nowjoining it is a similar piece of embroidery that some avid fans of the tv show may recognise. it looks like the famous cloth, but instead of depicting the conquest of england in 1066, this carries plotlines. the plotlines of game of thrones. it must be a lot longer. it is 87 metres long, and was crafted by 30 embroiderers in northern ireland. the tapestry is on display until the end of the year. someone has taken a lot of time and trouble. the sequel is never as good. the original full the sequel is never as good. the originalfull —— the sequel is never as good. the original full —— the the sequel is never as good. the originalfull —— the original ta pestry originalfull —— the original tapestry is better.
8:12 am
the family of a teenager who suffered a fatal allergic reaction after eating a chicken burger in a restaurant, is demanding a change to the laws governing food allergy labelling. owen carey, who was celebrating his 18th birthday, had told staff at a byron restaurant in london, that he was allergic to dairy. but he wasn't told that his food had been marinated in buttermilk. here's angus crawford. owen carey. living life to the full, his family say. acutely aware of them but never letting his allergies hold him back. but a meal out, an 18th birthday treat, killed him. fried chicken from byron berger, cooked in buttermilk, ingredients not listed on the menu at the time, triggering a severe allergic reaction. the only warning was in small print on the back. the coroner said the lack of information had
8:13 am
been falsely reassuring. owen, she said, made the serving staff aware of his allergies. but then the system of his allergies. but then the syste m bro ke of his allergies. but then the system broke down. and owen was not informed they were allergens in the order. his family are now demanding change. owen was the shining light in ourfamily and his death change. owen was the shining light in our family and his death should not have happened. we hope now that something good can come out of it, and we are calling on the government to change the law on allergen labelling in restaurants. byron berger says it has now made changes to its menu and training. it is clear the current rules and requirements is not enough and the industry needs to do more, more to help support customer with allergies and more to raise awareness of the risk of allergies. as the number of people like owen with life—threatening allergies grows, calls for a change grow too. for
8:14 am
owen's family, hopes that the lessons from his death can prevent others in the future. supporting owen's family yesterday were the parents of natasha ednan—laperouse. she was the 15—year—old girl who died last year after suffering an allergic reaction to a pret a manger baguette. tanya and nadim join us now from their home in hammersmith. very good morning to you. this must bea very good morning to you. this must be a difficult time for you. lots of tragic memories brought back. yes, it just feels like tragic memories brought back. yes, itjust feels like natasha's inquest all over again, to be honest. we we re all over again, to be honest. we were there to support the family and were there to support the family and we we re were there to support the family and we were so were there to support the family and we were so glad and honoured to be able to do that. but there were so many parallels and similarities. both young people were celebrating something, natasha was off on holiday, owen was celebrating his 18th birthday. and it ended in tragedy for both of them. it must be
8:15 am
pitifully upsetting to know that you lost natasha and that this is still happening. it is. it is like... you really realise that these situations seem really realise that these situations seem to keep happening and they may well continue to keep happening, and unless something really drastic is done, such as reviewing completely the food regulation laws around restaurants and the way they communicate ingredients and allergens, it is really vital that this change is an hour, and owen's horrific and tragic death should never have happened, should never have happened. it's terrible. you did describe the coroner's comments as ground—breaking, a landmark judgment. why do you think they were so judgment. why do you think they were so significant? they are significant because the coroner went way above and beyond what would normally happen in an inquest, and this is something that happened at natasha's inquest as well. we are seeing that
8:16 am
allergens are finally being taken seriously, they are, robert boyle who was the researcher, allergy researcher, that gave evidence, described it as a giant, a horrific way to die, it is a terrible thing. people aren't really still understanding, society, how dangerous allergies are. so for the coroner to come out i recommend some serious changes in our society to safeguard people, once again, as our coroner did, it is definitely ground—breaking. coroner did, it is definitely ground-breaking. and partly that is down to you and compaq —— your campaigning. how has it changed how we look at food. --? it is the first time for a long, long time, maybe a decade, that there has been a big change to food labelling laws, as a result of our family was like
8:17 am
campaigning. in working with the department of environment and the food standards agency, and indeed other people as well. from our side, out other people as well. from our side, ourcampaigning has other people as well. from our side, our campaigning has brought about what will become natasha's law, which will become a mandatory in 2021, two years' time, that will affect all food businesses that make pre—packaged food for direct sale. places like greggs, the bakers, or pret a manger, and many thousands of outlets like that in the uk it will have to put full ingredient labelling on the packaging. that is a huge step forward, actually. labelling on the packaging. that is a huge step forward, actuallym really is. any natasha's case it would have made a huge difference. in allen's case, possibly not. do you think you should be extended to restau ra nt you think you should be extended to restaurant food, the law? absolutely, it should be. it is the same reason. owen died for the same reason as natasha, he didn't have the full information given to him.
8:18 am
and a conversation is not enough. it is not a good enough starting point. we do believe in conversation but every allergic person has to be responsible for their own pet welfare, unless they are a child, of course, and it is down to the pa rents. course, and it is down to the parents. and so, written information is paramount. we are really calling for menus to give a lot more information so people can make the properjudgments when they decide what they are going to eat. at the inquest yesterday, on the day before, byron burger were saying actually that given more information on the menu would perhaps be more dangerous. that was their suggestion to the coroner. we would say, really, and i think anyone with allergies would say, since when has given anyone giving —— more information made it more likely that they would die? giving information is the simplest thing you can do, and if it saves lives, it should be
8:19 am
done. it isjust common sense, really. you've been incredibly courageous supporting owen's family. what advice are you giving to them when dealing with this grief while taking on this battle with the law? well, the grief is with you no matter what you do. and it doesn't go away. but to do something to honour your child and to help every other person who suffers from allergies as your child did. it becomes such an important part of your life. we just know that they will be supported by so many people, as we have been, and that will really help them on theirjourney to get justice really help them on theirjourney to getjustice for owen. really help them on theirjourney to get justice for owen. an really help them on theirjourney to getjustice for owen. an amazing legacy for your daughter, thank you. indeed. and just to say, when a child dies, and owen was a child, he was a young man but he reads a child really. when a child dies, for
8:20 am
parents, you bury your children in your hearts, that is what you carry for the rest of your days. it is really, really tragic. thank you so much forjoining us this morning. here's susan powell with a look at this morning's weather. some beautiful scenes been sent by our weather watchers. featuring a light layer of patchy mist at the moment. it has been quite chilly across england and wales overnight. temperatures has fallen down to three or 4 degrees in some spots but there is a lot of sunshine out there now. there is a lot more clout of the north of the uk, we've got a weather system already bringing some rain into the final west of england and some more persistent rain will come through the course of the afternoon and by the time we get the evening, some of the rain going into northern ireland as well. the wind picking up two as the front
8:21 am
approaches. top temperature in the north west of scotland, 15 degrees, to the south in the sunshine we could get up to 23. this band of cloud, it is a cold front, colder aircoming in behind cloud, it is a cold front, colder air coming in behind it, so for sunday the front basically cuts the uk into. along the line at the front, thicker cloud, outbreaks of rain, perhaps in northern england, perhaps in the north midlands and north wales later on, northern ireland as well. brighter spells in northern scotland, but still breezy, feeling chillier than today, top temperature of 12 degrees in stornoway whereas we are still potentially seeing the mid 20s across a good portion of southern britain. for all of us, afresh i feel as we look towards the start of next week, but a lot of autumn sunshine to come as well. let's return to our top story now and the former prime minister, david cameron, has criticised his former colleagues, borisjohnson and michael gove and accused them of behaving appallingly
8:22 am
during the brexit referendum. in his first major interview since leaving downing street three years ago, mr cameron told the times newspaper the result of the referendum left him feeling depressed, and that he worries about it every day. we can speak now to former advisor to david cameron phillip blond. just to david cameron phillip blond. establish for us, s| know just establish for us, so people know where your expertise comes from, what was your role with david cameron? well, it was unofficial, but i worked on everything from the broken britain theses, helping to bright the early speeches in 2008 to 2010, working on the big society, trying to fulminate the whole transformation of those who had left behind, that whole agenda, really. the people who have come to this afresh, hearing similar thoughts from david cameron, one of the first ones, which may go down very badly
8:23 am
with people is his worry, and he talks about even undiagnosed but a sense of depression, he wakes up every day thinking about what happened and the decisions he made. ordo think happened and the decisions he made. or do think people will make of that? what comes across to make a festival, is his decency. that is what you want a national leader to think. also, when it goes the way they don't think. surely, that is something we should be thankful that a leader thinks? you know, he may now think, in the book he made a better case for why britain should remain in europe, in terms of international influence and prestige, and i think we should be delighted that our leaders aren't cynical and that he agonises over decisions that went against him. i think it speaks well of the man, really, to be honest. i can't really see how you could read it any other way. you could read it at that what
8:24 am
people want is for the prime minister to make the right decisions and he says, i got things wrong, not calling the referendum himself, but in terms of how he approached the campaign, he says himself, i got things wrong. i think we are conflating two issues. i think you did get things wrong, and i think he got things wrong a lot earlier than that, but what i think we can't object to is the fact that he argued for something and he didn't win and he regrets that. let's talk, i think, perhaps, about what went wrong, and i think this is the critical line. i was involved in trying to create, with fellow travellers, if you can put it like that, in the tory party, a conservatism that spoke to those who feel excluded, not just conservatism that spoke to those who feel excluded, notjust in terms of wealth but in terms of power, society, and place. and cameron was
8:25 am
for all that and we developed an incredibly interesting suite of policies and they were surrendered, more or less, weeks after he was elected in 2010, to a very conventional thatcherite austerity type programme, and he never really returned with any bigger —— a vicar or passion to it and the big society became picking up litter after the church tombola. on a more specific issue, about boris johnson, church tombola. on a more specific issue, about borisjohnson, now because the prime minister, he said during the referendum campaign, borisjohnson the truth at home. do you think that will. .. borisjohnson the truth at home. do you think that will... how do you think that will play out? that quote from one former prime minister to the current prime minister.|j from one former prime minister to the current prime minister. i think everybody left —— let the side down on the campaign. those who argued for leave, it is not unusual for people who are critical of them to accuse them of lying, so i don't
8:26 am
think that will have much impact, but i think to speak to your first question, what he got wrong, that the conservative approach, notjust in the referendum but also in the scottish referendum when we nearly lost to scotland, they approached everybody as if they were just economically self—interested, they had no idea about the country and what was happening at a deep level within the country, and i think that is where we indict cameron, not for what he said about michael gove or borisjohnson, that what he said about michael gove or boris johnson, that is just what he said about michael gove or borisjohnson, that is just on the nature of politics, but for not understanding the country and not creating a policy response that would have made the demand for brexit sort of vanish into thin air. ina way, brexit sort of vanish into thin air. in a way, he continued the long line of only working for the top 10% of the country, liberal conservatism in the country, liberal conservatism in the way only helps the economically advantaged in the already well
8:27 am
positioned, that is the line of critique i would have against the prime minister. interesting hearing your thoughts. i am worried about that big stack of books behind you, that big stack of books behind you, that any moment now it is going to collapse. that needs addressing. that any moment now it is going to collapse. that needs addressingm is part of the dynamics of an intellectual life, it can all fall apart atany intellectual life, it can all fall apart at any moment, it is kind of a book stack art object. we are going to look at the papers now. talk about the current —— dosh we havejoined... the artist mackenzie thorpe joined... is here to tell us what's caught his eye. the daily mail, while we all need a hand to hold in hospital, only to three in five patients get a visit and two in five don't. i was looking
8:28 am
for happy stories to start with! it touched me straightaway, the headline. three years ago i was diagnosed with cancer, and in 2a hours i was in the operating theatre on the table, massive operation, and i woke on the table, massive operation, and iwoke up on the table, massive operation, and i woke up on the ward and i got frightened. i suddenly felt, i woke up on the ward and i got frightened. isuddenly felt, i i woke up on the ward and i got frightened. i suddenly felt, i want some help, but then i realised if i asked for some help from that person, the nurse, then they will be taken away from the other patient that they could be working with. quickly, my problem became shame. shame that i was asking for something. but then something major happened. the nurse actually stopped what she was doing, came over, and grabbed my hand, that allowed to cry. and that crying was more of a
8:29 am
relief in the morphine that i was squirting into myself to keep the pain away. what that person talks about in the paper is the visiting that they look forward to, and that contact. i'm assuming in that time you had visitors. the thought of someone being in, could have been in your predicament and not having anyone. yes, it's huge. if you know somebody, please go and see them. it just takes a moment. the help that i got, it is not in a bottle. it wasn't. .. that person got, it is not in a bottle. it wasn't... that person realised something, picked up a vibe, and helped me enormously. there are organisations, charities, who do work in charities, doing just that, talking to people who maybe don't have someone with them. yes, someone came in and said hello and that was nice. i wasn't taking anybody else's
8:30 am
time for them to come and look after me. you shouldn't feel like an inconvenience in a hospital. me. you shouldn't feel like an inconvenience in a hospitallj me. you shouldn't feel like an inconvenience in a hospital. i felt like it to my family, i got ill and ididn't like it to my family, i got ill and i didn't really want to, i have to go through all the hassle and it is all my fault. for everyone now, how are you?” for everyone now, how are you? i am great, thank you. this is a story from the guardian. women are better than men at disguising the symptoms of autism. we are talking more about autism and other conditions. what is this about? i am not qualified to talk about autism, i have met some autistic people, i'm not qualified to talk about who is better, a man ora to talk about who is better, a man or a woman but if you would ask me to read that piece out you would find i am dyslexic. i can hide it now with my glasses in my pocket and iam not now with my glasses in my pocket and
8:31 am
i am not going to read anything or write anything. my dread to come here, i was happy to have the experience to come on the television, was as a dyslexic, i am going to be surrounded by newspapers, they might ask me to read something. now i am five years old and i have been asked to do my spelling is, i don't get it right andi spelling is, i don't get it right and i am going to get in trouble. so it still takes you back? immediately. so you can relate to disguising symptoms of a condition. yes, when i grew up in the 60s as dyslexic that word was not used. you are lazy or stupid, you got labelled but you got on with it. today, looking around offices at all the computers, i don't use computers, but i imagine, how can you be dyslexic in this world? and what is it going to be when somebody says do this and you can't, and you do it
8:32 am
wrong, and you get labelled and prejudice comes into it, you feel wea k prejudice comes into it, you feel weak and frightened when you felt confident five minutes ago. what is worrying in this is called social camouflaging, we will see things and feel we are struggling but because we wa nt feel we are struggling but because we want to fit in we hide them and don't get the help we need from an early age. you don't want to stand out as the wrong one bb naughty kid in class because that is how you will handle it, or the fighter, trying to be strong. i can do this, ican do trying to be strong. i can do this, i can do that. i couldn't read or write properly at school so i drew pictures. here i am sitting drawing pictures. here i am sitting drawing pictures. by way of a first go at revealing the newspapers, i cannot think of someone who has shared more about themselves in such a short space of time which is a good thing. definitely. i wasn't saying that as a bad thing! people are getting to know you, i think it is great. there
8:33 am
are people out there with children who are dyslexic, in australia, new zealand, japan, england, america, i feel for them. my son is dyslexic, my father and my brother, it is hereditary in the old jeans. and important not to be ashamed. not at all, don't be ashamed of who you are. i don't feel ashamed of who i am and who allowed me to do that. you are going to come back in an hour's time and look at some more. we will have the headlines in a moment and be back shortly.
8:34 am
hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and nina warhurst. coming up before nine we'll get the weather from susan. but first at 8.30, a summary of this morning's main news. the former prime minister david cameron has criticised borisjohnson and michael gove, accusing them of trashing his government with what he describes as their appalling behaviour during the brexit referendum. his first major interview since leaving downing street three years ago, he has told the times newspaper that the results of the referendum left him feeling depressed and he worries about it every day. on this programme the culture secretary nicky morgan who served in the cabinet under david cameron told us the cabinet under david cameron told us how she would vote in the event ofa us how she would vote in the event of a second referendum.” us how she would vote in the event of a second referendum. i would vote to remain. so why are you in boris
8:35 am
johnson's cabinet? because i am also a democrat and i believe one of the fundamental tenements of our democracy is when the public vote and over 30 million people voted in the eu referendum, there was a clear result. i know it is a result many people don't like, i was not co mforta ble people don't like, i was not comfortable with it but i have accepted it and i think it is important whether there is a result ora important whether there is a result or a referendum, the mps and parliament fulfilled that mandate. felicity huffman, the hollywood actress known for her role in the tv series desperate housewives, has been sentenced to two weeks in prison for her part in a college admissions scandal. she paid $15,000 — that's around £12,000 — to falsify her daughter's exam results. the actor was also ordered to complete 250 hours of community service and pay a fine of almost £16,000. 69 high streets in england are to get a share of 95 million pounds, in an effort to help them compete with online retailers. ministers say they want
8:36 am
to breathe new life into historic buildings. since the start of the year, an average of 16 shops on the uk's high streets have been closing every day. the former girlfriend of ex—cricketer, geoffrey boycott, has criticised theresa may's decision to give him a knighthood — saying he doesn't deserve it. in an interview with the sun newspaper, margaret moore — who was physically assaulted by boycott in the 1990s — said she was disgusted that he had been honoured. he has always denied the attack. one of the uk's largest pawnbrokers has closed all of its stores. the owner of albemarle & bond and herbert brown has announced its looking for a buyer for some of its 116 shops with staff offered redundancy. the national pawnbrokers association says customers are being kept in the dark. those are the main stories this morning. let's catch up on the sport. good morning. good morning. the morning after the night before, it was a tense finish with the solheim
8:37 am
cup. day two of the solheim cup is under way. two of this morning's foursomes have teed off with europe having a slender one point lead. the captains have decided to do what was successful yesterday, exactly the same today. there were three winning pairs and are all out again today. they're 4 and a half to 3 and a half in front. follow it on the bbc sport website. there are higlights on bbc four at 7 this evening. much more on the golf to come. now the ashes might have gone but england will fancy their chances of levelling the series at least after sam curran and particularlyjofra archer helped them to a first innings lead on day two of the final test at the oval. and here's a rarity, steve smith was out for less than a century. joe wilson reports. the oval is surely one of cricket's grandest old stately homes, it must expect a butler and there he is. but
8:38 am
that would aim for morning boundaries and strain it would aim for his stumps. now the fun stopped, england were all out for 294. they prepared to ball with motivation, after a ll prepared to ball with motivation, after all david warner was waiting, gently reminded by the crowd he had been scoring a lot of ducks. he managed five, another failure. been scoring a lot of ducks. he managed five, anotherfailure. maybe the crowd were bored of booing. no. jofra archer was bowling with real menace. england were in business. but there was him. that is steve smith, start counting when he gets to 50. this might be the fifth ashes episode but the cast does change. england brought in a new baller. sam curran on his ashes debbie made his mark, he got paint then he got cummings in consecutive balls from roughly 59, he became ten feet tall.
8:39 am
then the ultimate smith mistake, chris woke's wicket. it seemed like a huge victory. jofra archer finished with six, this one can only be appreciated slowed down. england will resume 78 ahead, this way to the weekend. it would mean a lot for the team, obviously. there's still a lot to play for — there's the test championships and even our own personal game, you know? so although the ashes is lost, we've still got a lot to play for. the premier league's back after the first international break of the season... no doubt it will provide much of the converstaion on football focus today... dan is here to tell us about it. it is nice to be back, a nice international break. we are coming back with some big interviews on the show. i will play a clip from the first one because marcus rashford,
8:40 am
manchester united had a fantastic season, starts his manchester united career and they stalled a little bit. they had a number of injuries, they play at leicester this weekend you are playing good football at the moment so a couple of worries and this week, marcus rashford had a big sit down and here is a little bit of that. how different is he tojose mourinho? he is very different but thatis mourinho? he is very different but that is expected. because he has played, off the pitch it he understands the players a bit more. he is understood that the lifestyle we have let in so it might be a bit more understanding. plenty more coming up on the programme. on the show we have got a player from chelsea, watford have changed their boss again, i think that is ten managerial changes in eight seasons from watford. this is an old boss
8:41 am
coming back to be boss the second time. still change though. he knows his way around. we have tom talking about another change of boss at watford and we have chris wilder coming on life, the sheffield united manager. they take on southampton. it is great to have a premier league manager at life on the programme. remember the kelly brothers? —— cowley brothers. they have got the job at huddersfield town. danny often does most of the talking and nicky is in the background but they work well together, they have taken a job at huddersfield. we have done our football focus honesty cards this evening which had gone down well, we're giving questions to players to ask each other and they are players to ask each other and they a re often players to ask each other and they are often far more open and honest when they are asking each other questions then they are a journalist. we have got our first
8:42 am
family connection. shaun longstaff has a brother at newcastle, matty. the pairare has a brother at newcastle, matty. the pair are asking questions. we have got all of this to fit in from midday today. it will be a packed return. strictly football based questions? no, it is things like you is the most famous person on your phone. random football stuff. charlie was quite open about his answers but naga would give nothing away when we asked them. he was the most famous person on your phone, dan? it has to be naga. that is the right answer. i call that a cop out. mine is charlie. i gave you my number? ijust took your i gave you my number? i just took your phone.
8:43 am
he takes too long in make—up, that is charlie's problem. thank you very indeed, dan. have you got more sport to do? i have got some more. now it was billed as ‘friday 13th fright night‘ in the super league — as one of four teams faced relegation in the final round of fixtures. huddersfield and hull survived but it was london broncos his luck ran out. they were beaten by wakefield, whose19—10 win saved them from relegation. for the broncos they return to the championship after one maybe in a couple of days‘ time we can have a look and celebrate. we had a good crack but to come so close and he fell at the last hurdle is devastating. we worked so hard. to come up short like that is painful. we‘re expecting big crowds in manchester city centre today, for the finish of the tour of britain cycling race. dutchman mathieu van der poel has a 12 second lead, after winning his second
8:44 am
stage of the event. they set off from altrincham at 11 o‘clock. britain‘s alice tai has continued her dominance at the world para swimming championships. she won herfifth gold medal in london last night — with victory in the 50 metres freestyle — setting a new championship record. and five gold medals soon became six — as tai was part of the great britain relay team that won the 4 by 100 metre medley — setting a new world record time. tyson fury insists he‘s not getting ahead of himself as he prepares for his latest fight. in fact he‘s not looking much beyond the few hours that follow his meeting with otto wallin in las vegas. fury has weighed in at 17 and a half stone — over half a stone lighter than his last outing — for the heavyweight fight which will be in the early hours of tomorrow morning our time. he‘s the overwhelming favourite ahead of a potential rematch against deontay wilder. much talked about but not by fury himself. i‘m not interested in deontay wilder one bit. i‘ve got otto wallin to think about, and then i‘m going to think about getting smashed in los vegas with all the mexican people.
8:45 am
so february is a long time away. i might have a lot of cuts and bruises by the time february comes! so we‘ll worry about that when it arrives. i‘m interested in the fact he has already not only earmarked the fact he is going to have drinks but the people are going to join them. they have no choice, the mexican fans are going tojoin him because they have no choice, the mexican fans are going to join him because they often going to join him because they often go to las vegas. i don‘t think getting smashed is having a couple of drinks. thank you, see you later on, time now is 8:45am. the little mix pop star jesy nelson has been praised for speaking so frankly about what it was like to be bullied online, as part of a new bbc documentary. in the odd one out the former x—factor winner revealed how comments aimed at her appearance, had led her to attempt to take her own life. there have been calls for the programme to be screened in schools, to highlight the effects that online abuse has on victims.
8:46 am
back then i used to read these and just cry myself to sleep. bless jesy, little makes, she is trying to look like the rest, well stop you are fat and look like a chipmunk. jesy are fat and look like a chipmunk. jesy has lost a lot of weight, they could probably make a death member out of her. the fat one from little mix looks like miss piggy. from the minute i won x factor at —— i was from the minute i won x factor at —— iwasa from the minute i won x factor at —— i was a different girl, i was not jesy i was a different girl, i was not jesy the barmaid, they have a confident girl i was. i was a nervous wreck the whole time. we‘re joined now by hannah adams
8:47 am
who is an anti—bullying campaigner with first hand experience of cyber bullying and also blogger and mum, tanya barrow. you found this documentary upsetting, tell us about the memories it brought back. just reading and listening and watching, not just the story ofjesy but all the other people, it brought back everything that happened to me when i was younger and the feelings i felt when i received these horrific m essa g es felt when i received these horrific messages from, not just felt when i received these horrific messages from, notjust people felt when i received these horrific messages from, not just people from my school, but random men online who are commenting on all my pictures and maybe making group chat to attack me. it made me feel really, really emotional to think it is not just me and i didn‘t feel so alone. it is other people as well who go through it. it was hard to watch but it was really important, i felt. talk to us about coping with that
8:48 am
moving beyond it. i don‘t know what the right phrases are. for me, i a lwa ys the right phrases are. for me, i always found healthy ways of coping and moving onwards from everything. i thinkjust talking to people about it when it was happening and definitely after the documentary, after watching it, it really did help. i would always say talk to people because it is important to get it out and notjust keep it to yourself. i cannot say what people said does not affect me anymore because it still holds on to you. i still talk to my mum about it to this day and i think that is important to do that. pick up on that tanya, you confront the other end. you are a mother. my children are in their205. end. you are a mother. my children are in their 20s. you have been through this? i have been through it with my children and as hannah has
8:49 am
said, we need to talk about it. parents need to be aware this can happen and! parents need to be aware this can happen and i am a huge supporter of social media, i have been online for ten years and done all sorts of things. i am a huge supporter but there is this element that is vile. how do you make sure as a parent that you can help? it is going to happen, something will be occurring. how have you worked out a way? we need to be able to talk about it at home and be open. if parents can have an understanding of how the different platforms work, how whatsapp is different from snapchat, and just be open. let the children understand they can come and talk to you or there are other organisations. they can talk to their teachers, they can just organisations. they can talk to their teachers, they canjust put their teachers, they canjust put their hand up and say, this has happened, i need help. when it was happening to you hannah, you said
8:50 am
you had the support of your mum and friends, and yet you still felt isolated. what more could have been done from your perspective to make you feel safe and confident?” done from your perspective to make you feel safe and confident? i think maybe more people talking about it and people educating you in schools on social media. i had no clue on how to block people, how to report comments. at the time thought there was no escape, it was going to be there for ever. it is important to educate yourself and other people around you, just to have that. i felt if i had that in that kind of knowledge and support, i maybe would have been able to do something about it at the time. had it in the school curriculum when teachers say this is what might happen and how you can deal with it? i agree. what might happen and how you can dealwith it? i agree. they do different things in school like pse lessons and i think they should talk about social media because it is such a big part of everybody‘s life, i think it is important to bring it
8:51 am
into school curriculum. and beyond schools, i think as adults we need to educate ourselves and you are saying it was also meant you had never met he was building you. i think as adults we also have to take some responsibility about how we act online and teach our children that you should not be behaving like that. some of the tweets i read that katie hopkins sent that were shown during the jesy nelson documentary, kitty has children of her own, how would she feel if her children were being bullied to the extent that hannah was being bullied —— katie. as adults we have to be educated on what we can do, how we can to help people like hannah and how we behave online. making comments that are careless can be helpful. —— hurtful. it absolutely can. as a parent it must be difficult to take an interest but not be snooping them.
8:52 am
yes, i'm not stocking them. i have three children who are all online but you have to let them do things toa certain but you have to let them do things to a certain extent. cannot there will be people watching now, you‘ll be watching it and looking at texts and on social media, and something will come and that is hurtful that will come and that is hurtful that will have an impact on them. what is your advice and what you do to cope? i always said, first of all, make sure you surround yourself with good people and talk to people. if it is happening on mine take a screenshot but don‘t reply because it is usually the reaction they are trying to get from you. so, you can get sucked into it more by responding? definitely. i was found that. i would reply, saying, why are you saying this to me, it is really hurtful but then i found out they wa nt hurtful but then i found out they want that reaction. so don‘t give
8:53 am
them that and put your mind on something else. i use mindfulness or at music and that is a helpful way of escaping —— healthy way of escaping from what is going on as well as talking to your mum or even a teacher at school, find background when you feel comfortable talking to someone. thank you both so much, very interesting. i cannot believe you are trolled over your amazing here, it is so beautiful. what is wrong with people? jealousy, that is what it is. if you‘ve been affected by any of the issues discussed this morning you can find information about groups offering help and support at bbc.co.uk/actionline. let‘s get a look at the weather for the weekend. susan has all the details. good morning, it is a beautiful looking start across many parts of the uk, our weather watchers are sending in great images, faultless
8:54 am
blue skies here in oxfordshire. there has been a little bit of mist around across england and wales. it got quite chilly, three or four. but a lot of sunshine will warm things up a lot of sunshine will warm things up pretty nicely. on that satellite picture there is a lot more cloud to the north of the uk, we have a weather system that will push rain throughout the day, perhaps heavy and more persistent throughout the afternoon and the winds are strengthening significantly. it will tip more cloud into southern and eastern scotland and across northern ireland but no rain for northern ireland but no rain for northern ireland until the evening. top temperatures, 15 or 16, 20 three degrees for the south—east of england. the wind is a feature for the evening and overnight for both northern ireland and scotland. the rain tending to peter out as the front sinks southwards but for a time even severe gales possible across the northern isles. the front isa across the northern isles. the front is a cold front, there is chilly air
8:55 am
to the north of it but it be windy over scotla nd to the north of it but it be windy over scotland to keep temperatures up. we are not too concerned about pockets of frost developing. not much rain along the length of the front for the course of the night but it is a dividing line for sunday and just a little bit of uncertainty as to exactly where it will cut the uk in two, in terms of where we will have thicker cloud and rain on sunday. at the moment it is favouring a little bit of rain into southern scotland, across northern ireland into northern england and in the afternoon, perhaps dropping into the afternoon, perhaps dropping into the midlands and north wales but the biggest contrast is the temperatures. for scotland, northern ireland and northern england, quite a showery feel but we could see 25 or 26 across southern england where we still sit in the warmer air. high pressure will be building and this mother front will be sinking further south and getting dissolved away by the high but all of us, slide into
8:56 am
some chillier article here. a bit of a north—westerly breeze by the high pressure is building at the same time. some bright autumn mornings, quite chilly and crisp, we could even see a patchy frost in some spots on tuesday and wednesday but later on in the week, it looks like the high will be orientate itself and airthe the high will be orientate itself and air the atlantic. our temperatures will begin to creep up. quite a pleasant come autumn week ahead with light winds, a lot of fine weather, some crisp mornings and pleasantly warm afternoons. we like pleasantly can. as anyone with children knows, the start of the school year is an expensive time. uniforms, shoes, books, school trips all cost money — which can be a struggle to keep up with. one in four children some parents don‘t even order the uniforms on time, charlie. what happens after that, is it a
8:57 am
panic? it is fine, it is a bit embarrassing. one in four children in the uk live in a household that falls under the government‘s definition of poverty. but in scotland, one charity wants schools to play their part in solving the problem. there is a lot of expense involved at this time of year, tell us more about the scheme. what they are pointing out really, in scotland, is it is not just pointing out really, in scotland, is it is notjust the start of term, it is right through the term and they are calling it the cost of the school day project because schools are having to save money and they are having to save money and they are making parents pay for it more and more, midi pens and pencils, bits of equipment, charging for events and all of that is a great strain on all of these families in the poorest section of society. they have been trying to get schools to change their views on things so they are inclusive and children can participate in they do. what kind of
8:58 am
things are we talking about? the first is the start of term, the uniform. i talked to the head david mcnulty at a premiere school in glasgow and he says he has a uniform bank work lost property goes into it and parents can give into it when the children grow out of it or leave the children grow out of it or leave the school and parents can get uniforms for nothing which is a great advantage. during the school day he says that they no longer charge for things like pens and pencils and even fun things like dress down friday, schools charge for that because they see it as a fundraising exercise. through families have to have another reasonably smart outfit to go to school and emily have to pay a pound or so. they have scrapped the charge with that but they have a child with that. things like the nativity play, his school is to charge £5 for pa rents to his school is to charge £5 for parents to attend, now it charges nothing. —— is school used to charge
8:59 am
£5. far more people attend. he says it isa £5. far more people attend. he says it is a change of mindset when you think about, does what we‘re doing exclude pupils and if it does, they don‘t do it and find another way. you can only assume head teacher would like a scheme like that in place. but things have to be bought. if you are giving things away for free, money has to be spent somewhere down the line. that is true and some of these are introduced because schools feel under pressure from cuts and funding, but he says if you have this mindset and look at the cost of things from the poorer people‘s point of view, everyone is on board. they even ask the people what they think about certain things. you can‘t find raised in certain ways and he says that change of mindset means the school are still —— you can fundraising means the school are still —— you canfundraising and means the school are still —— you can fundraising and other ways, the school are still coping financially but ina school are still coping financially but in a different way. more on money box
