29 but we are cannot quite reach 29 but we are around 20 degrees here at the moment and are set to get higher as the afternoon wears on. of course there's high temperature and glorious sunshine has caught people out for the delving into the summer wardrobe for shorts and t—shirts and some even put on the swimsuits to make the most of it. on the esplanade you have some concessions open such as the fish and chip shop but for a takeaway only and people have been queueing to get there lunch. and further down you can get ice cream that is what you want but again only to take away. the authorities are saying that they welcome day—trippers, those who can maybe drive a couple of hours and then go away again, there is no way to stay are no toilets open so the message from weston—super—mare is come and enjoy the sunshine and the beach but if you cannot do it in one day then please do not come, wait

until the restrictions are lifted and then they will welcome you with open arms. time for a look at the weather. here's nick miller. if ever there is a day for a weather watcher with a name like this it is today. we've had a pleasant day and now the warmest day of the year so far in the uk with 26.6 degrees at heathrow. and it is rising close to 29 to date for the top temperature. notjust in the london area but also in yorkshire, the midlands and south—east england. it is not a record for the month of may, and three years ago we beat that in scotland. temperatures hitting up with plenty of sunshine and warm air coming from the south. high pressure to the east and low pressure to the

west. we do have some missed and low crowd in parts of northern ireland, shetland grey and misty with some patchy cloud. but mostly sunny with temperatures up to 2a degrees in scotland, 22 in england and wales. these mid to high 20s and of course not just the temperatures these mid to high 20s and of course notjust the temperatures which are high but also the uv levels. said do beware of that strong may sunshine. it will be a fine evening and are dry and clear night for many. but we have cloud and rain pushing into northern ireland, western parts of england as the night goes on. if you wa nt england as the night goes on. if you want some rain for the garden this system is moving east tomorrow but the rain will be patchy. the chance of some heavy showers in places but

they could be hit and miss. than most they could be hit and miss. than m ost pla ces they could be hit and miss. than most places ending the day began with some sunshine. not quite as warm but still very warm out there. thursday night into friday much more active weather systems coming our way and the weather will change quite considerably. some heavy infa ntry quite considerably. some heavy infantry downpours on thursday night. clearing east on friday but keeping plenty of showers for northern ireland. very wet few days across scotland especially the highlands. but also very windy with a strong gusty wind, north wales, northern england, northern ireland and scotland up to 50 miles an hour possible. and temperatures into the high teens and low 20s. saturday a repeat of friday but we have the showers in the north and west on sunday. that's all from the bbc news at one, so it's goodbye from me, and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc‘s news teams where you are.

hello, i'm jane dougall with your latest sports news... liverpool are back in training, as the premier league clubs continue to return for non—contact sessions, with social distancing rules in place. the club tweeted "the boss and pep are back at melwood". and these are pictures from this morning's session at watford's training ground, a day after they returned three positive tests for covid—i9, which included one player. most of the squad were there but some players have opted to follow individual programmes at home, while they wait for reassurances about the protocols involved in team training when it comes to the spread of the coronavirus. manager nigel pearson has stressed he won't force the group sessions on anyone who is uncomfortable. there were six positive tests in all among premier league clubs, burnley‘s assistant manager

ian woan among them. that number — from 748 tests — is less than i% and it's being seen as good news. however, it's accepted that protection from the virus cannot be guaranteed at the moment. as a medical person, my view on it is if you are looking for a completely risk—free environment for football to return, it will not return in the near future. if you are looking for a sport to return with minimal risk, then i can't think of a sport that you are doing more to reduce the risk involved for them to be able to return to the sport. meanwhile, league one clubs have been meeting again this morning to try to come to an agreement over the rest of the season. as you'd expect, the clubs aiming for promotion are keen to carry on playing — including wycombe wanderers, who are outside the play—off places only on goal difference. continuing the season from a competitive point of view, we were ready.

the longer the time goes on now, the more difficult that's looking, both logistically and financially, and some of the clubs, you know, it's going to be a real wrench for them to continue but as wycombe, we are ready for whatever is decided and we hope this is really soon. women's super league and championship teams are assuming their seasons are over, according to sources at several clubs. manchester city were leading chelsea by one point at the top of the table when matches were halted. there'll be no final decisions until the clubs have given their views to the fa in a formal consultation process. it's understood the joint wsl and women's championship board would then decide how to determine final placings. some england cricketers will return to training tomorrow. up to 18 bowlers will take part in individual sessions at seven venues across the country. there will be a physio at each ground and social distancing rules in place — these pictures are obviously

from before the lockdown. batsmen and wicketkeepers will also be back in individual training from the ist ofjune. around 30 players in total — centrally contracted and from the county system — will be invited to take part. there'll be no cricket in england or wales until at least the beginning ofjuly because of the pandemic. the president of french horse racing's governing body has reacted angrily to the news that some courses could be forced to close again. it was only nine days ago that the sport re—started behind closed doors, but government approval has been withdrawn from areas still affected by the coronavirus outbreak. they include paris and the east of the country, so next month's french 2,000 and 1,000 guineas could be moved from longchamp to deauville. edouard de rothschild of france galop said it was "inexplicable and irrational". racing will be able to continue in normandy, the south and the west. that's all the sport for now. you can find more on all those stories on the bbc sport website.

that's bbc.co.uk/sport i like your watching bbc news i am taking you through the briefings for james. taking you through the briefings for james. and a lot of talk around the mrs questions around a track and tracing. let's get analysis for those colleagues. michael it was less the session. boris johnson and kissed allah locked horns over the policy to testing and care homes. both residents and staff. 0ver policy to testing and care homes. both residents and staff. over the levels of track and tracing, of people with suspected covid—i9 and then, at one point, the speaker, lindsay hoyle, was to threaten to reject the health secretary for chatting while they believe there was on his feet. it was a lively session. joining me to talk about

some of that is three mps, we have a just in matters, laura trott just in matters, laura laura trott is the conservative mp for sevenoaks. justin madders is shadow health minister and mp. kirsty blackman is the snp deputy westminster leader. cani can i touch about the fact that the surcharge should be charged to outside outside economic errors should be dropped for care workers? the prime minister says that it raises about £900 million, who would you like to pay for that? we think that the £900 million a year is actually the total cost of the total income from the scheme notjust for social care and nhs workers, and really the point that we are trying to make is that at the moment, we are seeing great levels of support from all across the country via the nhs and social care staff that are going well above and beyond the call

of duty. yet, in a couple of months‘ time, they will release that with action £200 a year, we think that actually, that turns out —— may get send out compete wrong message that we put on these people. we think that it‘s the right time to scrap that it‘s the right time to scrap that charge those workers. but do you not have an idea how you make up that shortfall? ? at this stage, there are obviously moving figures and we don‘t know how many people at any one time irony social care sector who would otherwise be paying for this, and even the nhs. it is not actual, so in any case, the government have already decided in at least one case the visas have been extended, but they do not have to pay the charge. i‘m really finding it difficult to understand why one group of nhs workers can have this charge, but not another. laura, listening to that, how can it be right that those very people, like care workers, those cleaners,

those from who come outside from the eea i really expected to pay a surcharge when they are on the front line, in care homes and hospitals, helping to save people, even like the prime minister had admitted himself, in the chamber today, that they still have to pay to use the nhs themselves? i think, what we have... is quite extraordinary to call for restraint in something when it we don't have much is going to cost. obviously, it is a very sympathetic point a, but we do know that the nhs needs to be funded, and this brings in a huge mass of money. we don‘t know exactly ifjustin is right, if it does bring in the same amount of money is the premise of saying, isn‘t it more a question of really if you‘re more comfortable with those people helping to save others having to pay to use a service? of the sea, we are hugely in to evra who is working on the nhs at the moment. the payments have been very clear about that. i know the whole government is looking at ways in which we can reward that, but that doesn't mean that the nhs

has —— doesn't need to not be funded. i'm made this point before,... again, ian blackford talked about paying levels for care workers, another essential key staff, what sort of levels? he didn‘t actually say or put an amount on it, what sort of amounts does the snp want to put on the care workers? i think all people should be given the real living wage, not the government's living wage, but the real living wage. we have a high proportion of people being paid that in scotland, and we make sure that people paid in the social care sector that can be paid the real living wage. you say there is a high proportion, what is that part of prison? 0r proportion, what is that part of prison? or is a high proportion in scotla nd prison? or is a high proportion in scotland and england. discussions government has come to an agreement on councils to ensure that we are a that real living way short of those people who are working in adult social care, so i think it is

incredibly important for us to recognise the value. ian blackford was raising today the fact that the uk government's criteria classes most of these people as low skilled workers, and will mean that they cannot meet the points system to be able to come here. i think that it's usually concerning at a time when we are relying so heavily on our nhs. when we say to people, know you are i'io when we say to people, know you are no longer welcome. it's really very shocking. let us pick up on the issue, and how people are classified. laura, you have talked about affordability, but should care workers be classed as low skilled? the work they do is incredibly important andl the work they do is incredibly important and i think that it is... what we had yesterday, is a need for a strategy on this, which i think of something i would support. the work they do is incredibly valuable and importance, we have to make sure they have the right people doing that. cassie, let us talk about the

jacob rees—mogg response, in the table, it was just after the prime the questions. this was in response to alistair carmichael, the liberal democrat mp, he was questioning whether it was wise before mps to come back physically, many more of them from the 2nd ofjune after the recess. do you think it is the most effective way to hold the government to account by being here physically? no, i don't think it is the most effective way. it is the case that things are a bit different now, but they are different for everybody in every workplace. in every workplace we are having to make pace changes. two things i'm hugely concerned about is the mps are shielding, who are ina about is the mps are shielding, who are in a medical category he means that they cannot or should not be... but it was said that there should be special arrangements and they are looking for rearrangements and reassu ra nces of looking for rearrangements and reassurances of that. he also contradicted himself on that when he spoke to gavin robinson about it. i am concerned that there is nothing

in place for those mps. but is concerned think. the other issue is that for order for me to get the balance, i will have to travel about 450 miles. it is about a 12 hour car journey, ten or 12 hours if i don't stop, i don't have a car that i think and take so the reality is that i'm going to have to take public transport. this means that i am at risk of infecting people, because of my travel. i am at risk of spreading the virus around my family, around my community, around all of the people that i am in contact with. i am able... is not the case the mps are not working, i am able to do myjob, scrutinise the legal government from home, without the risk of spreading the virus. i think it is shocking that they would not do this without putting on any risk assessment or any quality to risk assessment or any quality to risk assessment. the government will argue that there is a risk assessment and social distancing as we ask is observing in a central lobby outside the council chamber. it will be in place outside and also

from 2nd ofjune. just imagine, would you like to be back here physically on a daily basis in parliament? and do you think it will help scrutinise the government will close the foot? i would like to do that, but i would also like to be safe at work and i would also like to mix i‘m not spreading the infection when i return to my sketch was vacant. those are really the key issues here. i think what is driving us issues here. i think what is driving us is some real concern on the government benches on how boris johnson has been really exposed to this. especially over the last few weeks, because of the personal detail, on the questioning has coming forward. this has been coming back to the raucous cheering and jeering, it really is appropriate. we should always have a big? about whether it is aptly safe. the government do not want to be setting an example to the rest of the public saying that you can go back to work, but without doing it safely. it is not the message going to be sending

out. laura? i totally not the message going to be sending out. laura? itotally dispute not the message going to be sending out. laura? i totally dispute that point is about bringing it back to parliament it is not about... to curse his point, to make sure their impressions provisions in place, and lots of people who are have response but it is, i was very encouraged that the leader said that there will bea that the leader said that there will be a place for that. in terms of being back to be seeing mps back in parliament physically from the 2nd ofjune? i think it is an important business in the house if they were to go through that, and be able to charge people. but we should all be working from home at the moment, but being able to scrutinise... proceedings are not the same as being in the house and being able to intervene, andl being in the house and being able to intervene, and i think is important we have some of that up and running. do think there has been a lot of accountability during that period, a bit being hybrid working

environment? i think the government has been astounding in getting things in place are quickly so that scrutiny can continue, and i think they have been working as well as possible, but i think other things cannot happen while we are in a hybrid proceedings, and i think it is important to make sure we are driving our little nation forward. there was an important bits of news from the prime minister in a pm to use, around the track and tracing system, 25,000 is what the government is aiming for in terms of contact traces to be in place. he said by the 1st ofjune. just then do you welcome that? clearly, we wa nt to do you welcome that? clearly, we want to be there when the system is in place you want to make sure that it works, and the government have now said that as the figure that they need. there are some big questions. we are to get the testing right as well, and even the government yesterday couldn‘t tell us government yesterday couldn‘t tell us how many people have been tested, so we need to make sure that testing

is widely available, that it is going to be affected in terms of the tracing system and also that people will be able to get a test and the results back as quickly as possible. at the moment, we‘re still hearing that people are waiting five or ten days, and is not going to be good enough to make sure that the system works properly. you are saying that the test, track and tracing system should be put on hold until you have the sort of guarantees over testing that you have just outlined? all of those things have got to be in place before we are ready to go. if there is one part of it that doesn‘t work, thenit is one part of it that doesn‘t work, then it becomes an ineffective system. if we do that, without having everything in place, then we risk a second spike. we have to be accidentally certain that we have the best system that works across the best system that works across the board. i think that we still have a few too many questions to be competent that is going to read it on the 1st ofjune. what are your reservations on this when you say you need some guarantees, guarantees for what? i don't want to get too

much into the privacy debate, but thatis much into the privacy debate, but that is clearly a big issue that needs to be assured of the data being secure. we heard about some of the people who are working on a system having their data taken. we need to be clear about how this is going to work in practice for the people who can‘t actually access the app because they don‘t have a smartphone. we need to be sure how easily it is to get test, how people are going to access them, how quickly they will get results back. at the moment, people are still being parts to be able to take the test. those are still things that absolutely have to be in place before we go forward with this. kirsty, in terms of embedding, if you like, the track and trace system that the prime minister is promising is going to be up and running by the 1st ofjune, how long would you like to give it before let‘s say, schools we re to give it before let‘s say, schools were open in england?”

to give it before let‘s say, schools were open in england? i think the government has done is backwards, the government has said that they will open the schools in the 1st of june and then work everything around it. really, it should have been led by the science and the available resources on this. what we will be a paper released tomorrow from the government on how lots alex, but we have been utterly clear on how that test, track and trace system needs to be ready in advance on advance of that so that we are ready to move to the next stage. so that we can then have the resources in place, in advance of saying that the timeline is. itjust advance of saying that the timeline is. it just seems advance of saying that the timeline is. itjust seems like it has been donein is. itjust seems like it has been done ina is. itjust seems like it has been done in a really backwards way in the uk government. i'm really disappointed in that, i think the safety people should have been put first. listening to that, laura, professor angela mclean, one of the leading scientific forces unless said it was critically important to have any contacts track and trace

system in place and also working well before decisions were made about how many children should return to school. do you agree with her? would you think the reopening should happenjust her? would you think the reopening should happen just when her? would you think the reopening should happenjust when it is in place? i think it is important to look at the science on this. everything i have said so far, i have asked... he has been clear that children get a very mild form of this virus and that they don't think that children are the super spreaders, they are for example like with flow. the plan is the government has put in place mean that children will be in very isolated bubbles with their teachers when they do go back and it will be ina very limited when they do go back and it will be in a very limited and vague manner to make sure we are checking on any response. for example in denmark, the reopening in schools has had an extremely limited impact on the numberof extremely limited impact on the number of cases. i don't understand

the point is that the teachers and parents have on this, but i think it can be done safely, and i know the government is making sure that that can be done. thank you very much to laura, justin and justin. but it is very much everything for me. for days, brazil has made headlines for its steady increase in daily deaths and infections. it is now seeing a sharp escalation of the pandemic, with officials reporting more than a thousand coronavirus—related deaths on tuesday, the first time that‘s happened. nearly 18,000 people have died in brazil because of the disease. with more, here‘s david campanale. graves freshly dug in brazil‘s largest city, sao paulo. but they have been made ready for a reason. in the past 24 hours, two grim milestones have been passed — not only the most number of deaths, but also the highest number

of confirmed new infections. with over a quarter of a million people with the coronavirus, only the united states and russia have recorded higher numbers of cases. it‘s a disease clearly not under control. the trajectory of recorded deaths is heading sharply upwards, and experts say insufficient testing might mean the real infection rate could be 15 times higher. translation: we are losing the battle against the virus, that is the reality. the virus at this moment is winning the war. these days coming up to the holidays, i don't see them as holidays, but i see them as battle days, the most important days in the fight against the virus. the country‘s right—wing president, jair bolsonaro, has dismissed the risks and compared covid—19 to a little flu. despite the deaths, he still has support for his strategy

of opposing lockdowns, including among those outside his presidential palace chanting "chloroquine", the name of an antimalarial medication that the brazilian leader claims can be used against coronavirus. it now looks like the president will finally have his way on the drug, helped by his new interim health minister and army general, happy to take orders from his boss. president bolsonaro says a new protocol will be signed which widens the use of the drug beyond just critical patients. this despite there being no evidence yet that it helps treat or prevent covid—19. he isn‘t the only leader in the americas praising its theoretical use, but the trend of deaths and infections are facts that can‘t be argued with. donald trump says he is now looking at closing us borders to travellers from brazil.

away from coronavirus in just a few moments, we are hearing of two arrests in the case of carlos cohn, you may remember this, the former head of the car company nissan, charged with embezzlement among other charges. we are just hearing that the us at the request of japan has arrested two men accused of smuggling him out ofjapan. that has just come through from the us. we might geta just come through from the us. we might get a few details later on in the afternoon. two men have been arrested, japan one thing, of course, to get carlosjoan back in the country charged with embezzlement. that has just been conned coming through. much more coming up from two o‘clock, we will ta ke coming up from two o‘clock, we will take a look at the weather prospects here is nick miller. hello, it is another warmest day of the year so far out there. temperatures are boosted

by the sunshine, here is a view from surrey earlier from an aptly named weather—watcher. how high were those temperatures? well, close to 29 celsius, sounds high, but not a record for may. and if you say, oh, that willjust be in the london area, temperatures that high could be recorded in parts of yorkshire, the east midlands, east anglia, as well as southeast england. high pressure to the east, low—pressure to the west, we have a flow of warm air coming our way this afternoon and we are getting plenty of sunshine. zoe salyer afternoon across northern england, northern ireland and scotland that we have had recently. there is some cloud may be coming from the eastern coast of northern ireland, southwest scotland, and it is grey and misty across shetland holding temperatures down here. further west in northern ireland, we could get into 22, 24 in scotland, higher temperatures still in england and wales. a temperature is not the only thing that is high, the uv levels are also high, so that means take care in the strong sunshine. so a fine, very warm evening out there, it will mostly be dry and clear overnight, but we do bring the weather systems through

northern ireland into western scotland, parts of wales and western england, with a bit of patchy rain as that goes on into the morning. and if you look at that and go, oh, yes, please, i would like some of that in the garden, especially where it has been so dry for the south. there is not much rain, looks like it moves east across the uk tomorrow, but a chance late morning lunchtime midlands, southeast england, east anglia for some heavy and thundery showers before that chance diminishes during the afternoon. and most of us in the day with some sunshine. it is a bit cooler, but it is very warm. there is an active weather system coming in on thursday night through to friday, very mild night out there, and then we see the winds pick up, deep area of low pressure and another band of rain pushing across the uk. but again, not much at all. following the rain that will be further heavy downpours are northern ireland into scotland, especially in the west, showers for wales and western parts of england are with some strong winds, gale force winds on friday. these are some of the gusts, and parts of northwest scotland will be close to 60 or 65 miles

an hour, it is cooler on friday. make a mental note of friday, saturday is pretty much a repeat performance, and then on sunday we could still see a bit of rain into parts of scotland in particular, but some of us are turning dryer on sunday. and into next week, it looks to be turning a bit warmer again.

this is bbc news i‘mjane hill. the headlines. borisjohnson says there‘s ‘growing confidence‘ the uk will have a virus tracing system in place by the start of next month. we will have a test, track and trace operation that will be world—beating and, yes, it will be in place, it will be in place byjune1st. the engineering giant rolls royce announces 9,000 job cuts because of the impact of coronavirus. local councils urge the the government to reconsider proposals to reopen primary schools in england next month because of concerns about safety. more nhs help for people with diabetes — as a study finds the disease is linked to a third of coronavirus hospital deaths in england.
