good morning and welcome to bbc news, i'm annita mcveigh. official data suggests hundreds of thousands of uk workers have lost their jobs during the coronavirus crisis. the office for national statistics revealed data showing that 649,000 people left company payrolls between march and june. the figures show 7a,000 fewer people on the paye register during june compared with the previous month. and the number of people claiming work—related benefits, including the unemployed, was 2.6 million. it comes as the british chambers of commerce warned that almost a third of uk firms expect to cut jobs in the next three months. that increase was not as big as many feared, because large numbers of firms have put employees

on the government—backed furlough scheme. economists say the full effect on employment will not be felt until the scheme ends in october. let's talk to our assistant political editor, norman smith. good morning. we know that many people's jobs are still there, technically, but for practical purposes, whether they will continue might depend on customer demand. how useful are these figures today and how accurate are they in giving a picture of employment against unemployment? i think they tell us pretty clearly that there is a gathering storm, and has not yet broken but all the warning signs are clearly there. 649,000 people off payroll is, that is an awful lot of people no longer being paid and although there are some less worrying signs in terms of

unemployment, it hasn't changed that much, but the claimant count hasn't decreased but there is no getting away from the fact that we are all bracing ourselves for a very significant levels of unemployment. nobody thinks otherwise, you only have to look at the daily data we are getting from well known household companies like british airways, easyjet, john lewis, harrods, all the signs are that they are going to be very significant redundancies although so far, as i say, the sheer impact of that has not hit. in part, as you said, that is because of some of the government schemes like the furloughed scheme but that will not be there for ever and a day. from next month it will be gradually phased out. the real fear is that down the line we are facing levels of unemployment probably we have not seen since the

19805, probably we have not seen since the 1980s, albeit i think this morning business secretary alok sharma tried to put the best gloss on the figures today. i think anyone who is facing unemployment, for them it is going to be an incredibly worrying time and we want to reach out and support everyone through ourjob centre network, through the rapid response service. what i would say is that, as a result of the support of the government has provided, £160 billion worth of support throughout this pandemic, we have also supported 9.4 million jobs through the furloughed scheme and you will have seen, from the 0br and others, who made it clear that if we had not provided this support, we would be in a far worse position, and, in fact, the cost of inaction would have been much greater than the cost of action. what we need to do now is to continue to open up the economy in a careful and phased way, as we have been doing, get britain back to work and work together, support businesses with a bounce back. and of course what potentially

compound the damage from the levels of unemployment we are expecting is that much of it might be focused on youngsters who are predominantly those who work in some of the more vulnerable sectors such as hospitality, leisure, tourism, those sorts of areas which only now are beginning to open up again which is why we had that summer statement last week trying to put in place some sort of for youngsters. but the labour view is that these sectors need targeted, specific help, longer term help to help them way beyond the current phasing out of the furloughed scheme and that with an argument we heard again this morning from the shadow chancellor, anneliese dodds. we know that the office for budget responsibility, the watchdog for public finances, it is in that report a few days ago, suggesting that we could see a reduction of about1.4 that we could see a reduction of about 1.4 millionjobs that we could see a reduction of about 1.4 million jobs that are cove red about 1.4 million jobs that are covered by the job retention scheme.

that isjobs rather covered by the job retention scheme. that is jobs rather than individuals. it could potentially cut but some people who are undertaking more than one job that is covered by the job retention scheme but it does seem to be likely that unless we see a shift away from that unless we see a shift away from that one size fits all approach to removing the scheme and requiring an employer contribution, that we will see extra waves of employer contribution, that we will see extra waves of unemployment coming through. we have already seen some over recent days which appear to be related to the initial change to be related to the initial change to the employer contribute in covering national insurance etc, that has already started to happen and we think that is a warning signal the government needs to change course. of course the other aspect of this we have not mentioned is the possible threat of an upsurge in the virus as we move possible threat of an upsurge in the vii’us as we move to ease possible threat of an upsurge in the virus as we move to ease the lockdown and indeed move into the winter months. of course the concern there, if there was any increase, we could see further restrictions, further clamp—downs which of course would dampen economic activity and i'm afraid could potentially be

worse news for unemployment. norman, thank you very much. let's talk to our business correspondent theo leggett. good morning. we are seeing with these figures this morning the direction of travel in terms of those unemployment figures but what more are businesses are saying about what additional help they need to try to keep going, to protectjobs? especially at this notion of some kind of student loan style loan for business. they are deeply worried because what we are seeing at the moment is kind of a middle phase. at the beginning of the lockdown, we had all sorts of problems for businesses who could not operate it and that was when the job retention scheme was brought in. people were taken of scheme was brought in. people were ta ken of payrolls scheme was brought in. people were taken of payrolls significantly early on and the ons said that tailed off towards june and early on and the ons said that tailed off towardsjune and now early on and the ons said that tailed off towards june and now we are in the stage where things are opening up and people are starting to be able to work again but demand

is not necessarily coming back. that is not necessarily coming back. that is the key thing. it is all very well having a job retention scheme which allows companies to retain their staff during a period where they cannot operate, so they have they cannot operate, so they have the people they need when demand picks up but if demand does not pick up, you are likely to see a surge in unemployment further down the line. this is what the cohead of the british chambers of commerce said today. it is really tough, people are facing really tough choices. the coronavirusjob retention scheme which the government introduced quite early on in the crisis has really helped to save people's jobs and save livelihoods and has kept people employed over this difficult time. as businesses start to go back to work, they are seeing business picking up, which is great, but many of them have reduced capacity because of the safe working guidance they have had to introduce, and some of them are finding that their demand is not coming back as people are still not going out and behaving in the way that they did precrisis. so, as the retention scheme starts

to cost people money from the beginning of august and comes to an end at the end of october, businesses right around the country are having to make these difficult choices about who they continue to employ. our data today, which we released in partnership with totaljobs, suggests that about a third of firms are looking to reduce their employee numbers over the next three months. if that tracks across all businesses, that could be really significant numbers of people finding themselves out of work. do we know at this stage to what extent government is weighing up the potential cost of further support for businesses, keeping people in jobs, against the costs of supporting people who are unemployed with benefits? it is a really difficult equation, isn't it? that will be preoccu pying difficult equation, isn't it? that will be preoccupying rishi sunak a great deal at the moment i would imagine. the cost of the job retention scheme, the furloughed

scheme, has already been very significant to put up now they are faced with the conundrum that if people don't go back to work and if thejobs are not people don't go back to work and if the jobs are not there, the people don't go back to work and if thejobs are not there, the benefits bill will rise. but the government does not have limitless pockets and at some point somebody will have to pay for this. as the ons figures said, they only tell part of the story, there have been significant consultations onjob story, there have been significant consultations on job letters which will come into effect on the line. yes, it will be a very significant preoccupation at the moment. you have to weigh up the cost of doing something with a cost of not doing enough and that is a really tricky equation right now. thank you very much for that. we are going to talk about the unemployment figures are little more right now. you can contact us on

twitter with your thoughts on unemployment, if you are unemployed right now as a result of the pandemic or concerned that yourjob might be going in the next few months? england'sjofra archer has been excluded from the team to take on the west indies in the second test which starts this morning, for breaching bio—secure protocols. the bowler will now be in self—isolation for five days, and undergo two covid—19 tests before he can rejoin the squad. the match at emirates old trafford is a bio—secure venue with hotel on site, meaning the players live on site, but archer has broken the rules. the west indies team say they're satisfied the right safety measures have been followed. well, archer has apologied, saying how extremely sorry he is. we'll more on this story in sport at half past. the headlines on bbc news... the economic impact of coronavirus — the number of uk

workers on payrolls falls by nearly two thirds of a million since before the lockdown. nearly a third of uk businesses expect to cutjobs in the next three months — the highest figure ever recorded by the british chambers of commerce. hackers target twitter, breaking into the accounts of some of the biggest names on the platform, including elon musk, barack obama and joe biden. let's stay with that headline story. the names on the list could hardly be bigger. joe biden, jeff bezos, the owner of amazon, barack obama, elon musk of tesla fame, bill gates. all victims of a hack on their twitter accounts, with bogus offers of big bitcoin pay—outs to their followers. the head of twitter, jack dorsey, said the company felt terrible about what had happened, and was investigating the incident. alanna petroff has the latest. famous tech billionaires can buy themselves almost anything, but it seems no amount of money

will help with cyber security. elon musk, jeff bezos, and bill gates were all victims of a major hack on twitter. their popular accounts were used to promote a cryptocurrency scam, sending out tweets like this. high—profile political figures were also targeted, including barack obama, joe biden and former presidential hopeful mike bloomberg. married mega celebrities kim kardashian and kanye west also compromised. this wasn't about fraud, i don't think, i think it was more about, you know, doing the hack. in the hacker community, we would actually call those type of hacks a little bit lame. twitter quickly took action. the scam tweets were removed, the company posted this...

this is a serious security issue for twitter, i mean, these are power users, these are users that people come to see and read, people like elon musk or kanye west orjoe biden, barack obama, bill gates, these are figures that use that platform on a daily basis and the fact that twitter couldn't keep that secure is a massive issue for them. experts say they could see more than $100,000 worth of bitcoin was deposited into the scam account. once it is there, victims cannot get it back. the twitter sphere blew up about the hack. the incident began trending, tens of thousands of users used the hashtag hacked. alanna petroff, bbc news. will guyatt is a technology and communications

expert and joins me now. good morning. to begin with the basics if anyone is not sure about bitcoin and what it is, it is the subject of a lot of bogus scams? bitcoin is one of many cryptocurrencies, the one that everybody seems to know when you talk about cryptocurrencies which oui’ currency talk about cryptocurrencies which our currency is not regulated by a central bank. essentially, they exist on the internet and the thing that makes them very appealing to unscrew bliss individuals and hacker groups is they are almost impossible to trace. —— unscrupulous individuals. it would take a lot of time to find where this money has disappeared to point that the thing ifind most surprising disappeared to point that the thing i find most surprising about this story is that twitter clearly have what have had a process in place to ta ke what have had a process in place to take control of accounts. this would probably be used in a typical scenario, let's imagine donald trump av scenario, let's imagine donald trump a's account was compromised and somebody started tweeting from it, this tool they had internally would

have been what would have stopped somebody from doing that. essentially enabling twitter employees to take control of accou nts employees to take control of accounts very quickly. that is what has been abused. none of these celebrities have fallen for the scam, the service has been compromised. sorry to interrupt you, but put it by saying it was a coordinated attack targeting employees, "with access to internal systems and tools." how do you think that might happen? it seems like a big breach of security and a nightmare for twitter. it sounds like social engineering, essentially a hacker or a hacking organisation have attempted to gain the trust of these people that have this access oi’ these people that have this access or have tried to trick them into clicking a link, getting them to clicking a link, getting them to click on something that they thought came from a colleague. pure speculation for me but i know the twitter team are encouraged to work from home currently because of covid—19, they are in san francisco

and their business or their territory is all around the world. they have been encouraged to work from home so potentially that is where this has come from. for me, i cannot stand here and tell anybody how to keep their account secure because it seems that an internal tool has been used to cause this problem but that the biggest question for me this morning is if you had access, ultimate access to twitter and all of the public figures, people like donald trump and all of these big names that we have mentioned, why didn't you try to do something a bit more far—reaching than attempting to drift a couple of hundred thousand dollars from people who think they will profit from it? elon musk got in real trouble several years ago when he essentially shorted the stock of his own company to a tweet. massive damage could have been caused to economies, society, and reputational damage for celebrities etc. the people got hold of this decided to exploit cryptocurrency to make a few quid. to my hunch, i don't think this was a sophisticated

foreign attack. in your package assembly said hackers would refer to this is a bit lame and that feels absolutely accurate. i don't think donald trump's account was used or taken over in any way, but yes, if it had been, and overtly political message had been sent out apparently from donald trump, that could have been hugely destabilising pond and indeed, with access to these accounts, whoever was behind this could have done even more harm than they have. there is one suggestion i have seen in reports saying that somebody was claiming it was a charity attack and the money made from it would be redistributed. what do you make of that? that also sounds suspicious. if charities are rubbing their hands by getting money that has been extracted from people who ate scam, i don't think many charities would want to pick up on it. -- charities would want to pick up on it. —— through a scamp and i think theissueis it. —— through a scamp and i think the issue is at some group or individuals have got hold of this

key, they have not necessarily realised the importance of what they have got because this essentially from the outside looking in, this compromises the entire verified system compromises the entire verified syste m o n compromises the entire verified system on twitter put it all the public figures with the blue tick next to their name. if they could ta ke next to their name. if they could take control of any of those with this access they had, they could have done untold damage on the platform. it's hugely embarrassing for twitter. i wonder who will walk away from the platform, what steps they will take to encourage all these public figures and politicians and world leaders to stay there and tell them what they have done to fix it could jack dorsey, pretty good at apologising when stop happens. he said it was a bad day from twitter andi said it was a bad day from twitter and i expect to see more from him when the us wakes up later today. that will be interesting today. thank you very much for your thoughts. more on our lead story, that new figures show 649,000 people were removed from uk payrolls between march and june as businesses tackle the economic fallout

of the coronavirus pandemic. we can speak now to ellen webb, who was furloughed in april and consequently made redundant from her pajob in last month. she's been unable to find job despite applying for more than 100 roles. we can also speak to alan parker, a self—employed musician who had to take universal credit for the first time, as a result of being out of work due to the pandemic. thank you both forjoining us to tell us your stories. ellen, you we re tell us your stories. ellen, you were a pa in the construction industry. what was the process that unfolded when you were put on furlough? it was pretty standard, no communication through the company. basically every three weeks we heard we would be furloughed and if it continue and around the end ofjune they made the decision to cut about 40 people from the company including myself. it was a pretty quiet level

of communication. and you had been advised to start looking for temporaryjobs. was that by your employer? people throughout the company, it was their personal opinions, and obviously family members who were concerned. and as we mentioned, that has led to you are signing up with multiple job agencies and applying for more than 100 jobs in the space of i think just a couple of weeks? how has that been going? it is tough, you get the same answer from every recruitment agency, that thejob market isjust not there, especially for admin kind of roles. i interview with them and they say, you know, we will come back to you in a few months‘ time and there was not a need for you at the moment. so jobs are being advertised but that is the response you get? yes. it is tough because you get? yes. it is tough because you can see so manyjobs coming

online, on linkedin, but they are not actually live jobs so it is very hard. i‘m applying and taking time out of my day and yet the response is not actually there. we will come back to you in a moment but let me speak to alan, a self—employed musician. before lockdown, how were your bookings looking for the year ahead? for me, iwas your bookings looking for the year ahead? for me, i was pretty much fully booked all the way to december. especially in the summer i'm always very busy, with garden parties, festivals, that kind of thing and obviously everything is cancelled. weddings as well the good thing is, summer weddings cancelled. weddings as well the good thing is, summerweddings were booked for next year but everything else has gone. -- some weddings. we mentioned you have had to take universal credit for the first time. have you received any other

financial help prior to taking that? no. because that was the only thing that i could see. and you are in this position where it is really difficult, we were talking to somebody from a theatre company yesterday, in the performing arts because they have been particular badly hit so can you see a way out of this where you will be able to come off benefits and return to a level of work where you can support yourself? yes, i think eventually, i think there is light at the end of the tunnel. but whether it is going to be soon, i don't know. because i have been doing this, i have been a professional singer and musician for 13 years now and i have always been in work, never been unemployed. i have always got some people booked a yearin have always got some people booked a year in advance and things like that but now i think it is going to be either at the end of the year or the start of next year before i get

anything to. and i guess the news today does not really fill you with a huge amount of hope, frankly? not at all! but we need to keep positive and see what happens. ellen, we should tell viewers that, very sadly, you have lost both your father and grandmother to covid—19. sympathy from me and all of us here, horrendous situation for your family. ijust horrendous situation for your family. i just wonder, horrendous situation for your family. ijust wonder, when you take all of that into account as well as what is happening with yourjob, what is happening with yourjob, what your thoughts are for the future. obviously the economic news todayis future. obviously the economic news today is grim but we cannot compare that to the loss of loved ones. no, it has been pretty awful, if i‘m honest. especially in lockdown. and we are talking today about the

memorial that is taking place this morning at manchester cathedral from the —— for people who have died from coronavirus in the area. how are you trying to stay positive at this time? to be honest, i have a great support system and my partner ryan has been there for me every single day trying to help me stay positive and, to be frank, to get out of bed. for me, it is trying to find even the simplest of things to do each day. today i‘m going to do a bit of drawing and for me that it‘s just something to focus on and not think about it. ellen and alan, we wish you both huge amounts of luck in terms of your search for work and i do hope you manage to get work to back soon and find a job. thank you so much for your time today. take care. the mp, julian lewis, has been kicked out of the conservative party

after he was voted in as chair of the intelligence and security committee instead of the government‘s preferred candidate chris grayling. a senior government source accused mr lewis of colluding with opposition mps to secure the position. borisjohnson has suggested that parliament could move to york while the palace of westminster in london is renovated. the prime minister confirmed in a letter that the government is considering establishing a northern hub and it would make sense to consider it as a potential location. if the move happens, it won‘t be until 2025 at the earliest. a sculpture of a black lives matter protester erected in bristol yesterday has been taken down. the plinth was previously occupied by a statue of the slave trader, edward colston. bristol city council said the new statue would be stored at a museum, until its creator collected it. the city‘s mayor, marvin rees, has said it was up to the people of bristol to decide what goes on the plinth. putting a statue on that plinth overnight did not come in line

with that process and therefore it can‘t stay. it will be protected, it‘s an incredible piece of work to a very inspirational woman, but the statue in and of itself, falling outside that process, can‘t stay because there is a process that was think is essential to bringing the city together. a memorial service will be held later this morning at manchester cathedral, to pay tribute to the city‘s victims of coronavirus. a maximum of 70 people will be allowed to attend, with many others expected to stream the service online. we can speak now to the bishop of manchester, dr david walker. thank you very much forjoining us. ata time thank you very much forjoining us. at a time when people have not been able to mark the deaths of loved ones in the way they normally would, how important will the service today be? i think this is very important.

normally, when we lose a loved one, we expect to have a proper funeral and a commemoration, celebration of that person‘s life as well as a chance to share our morning with others who have been affected by that. this has hardly been possible, there have been funerals but very small and limited affairs today the chance to commemorate the lives of those we have lost in this period. and it is not about individual lives but recognising that across greater manchester we have lost over 2000 people to coronavirus and the deaths are still going on. tell us about how the service will look. it is an interfaith service and there was a strong on my element. people will be able tojoinjust looking strong on my element. people will be able to join just looking at the manchester cathedral facebook page, thatis manchester cathedral facebook page, that is open and you can follow the live stream of the service there. it isa live stream of the service there. it is a service involving people from different faiths, manchester

cathedral has stood where it stands for many hundreds of years, long before it was a cathedral and it has a lwa ys before it was a cathedral and it has always been a place where the people of the manchester area can gather about the most important things around a life of its community. that is what we do and we offer that space to people of all faiths and no faith to share our common humanity and our allegiance to the city and its area. and talk to us about the online book of remembrance as well? we wa nt online book of remembrance as well? we want to make an opportunity for people to place names that so that perhaps in time there will be a physical book of remembrance, it is difficult to have that in the present circumstances, it would be difficult for people to visit it but having it online least begins to have a place where people can go and look at the names and they know the person who they cared about has not been forgotten, that person‘s name is there in public as a victim of coronavirus. it is a reminder, all these people who died of the disease area these people who died of the disease are a reminder to us not to let go

of ourgrip and are a reminder to us not to let go of our grip and cease to be careful to make sure that we keep this virus subdued and we don‘t allow it to regain the kind of control that led to all those deaths early in the year. which leads me onto my next question, we are all hoping and praying there will not be a second wave of this virus, we all know what we have to do to stop the transmission. how important do you think a very solemn event like this will be in reminding everyone to stop for a second and pause and take stock and remind themselves that there are simple rules they need to follow to stop more deaths? that is an important part of what remembrance is always about, when we have our annual remembrance sunday services in november at the cenotaph in manchester and other places around the country, we are commemorating those who have lost their lives but remembering how easy it is to fall into the situation where lives are sacrificed, sometimes needlessly conduct this

service i hope will remind us that we are still at risk, lives are being lost and those who died are not just the being lost and those who died are notjust the most being lost and those who died are not just the most frail and being lost and those who died are notjust the most frail and elderly but they often include front line workers, medical staff who put their own lives at risk and lost them to protect us. i hope to date will remind us to stay safe and to play within not just remind us to stay safe and to play within notjust the rules but the spirit of the law and of the regulations, and to keep ourselves safe and others safe as well. very good message, doctor david walker, bishop of manchester, thank you. time isjust after time is just after half past nine. let‘s ta ke time is just after half past nine. let‘s take a look at the weather with matt taylor. good morning. our after an overwhelmingly grey day yesterday, there are some breaks now in the sunshine. the best day in the east of scotland, at times to england and wales. north—west scotla nd england and wales. north—west scotland seeing the clouds thicken

later, outbreaks of rain more extensively, more breeze, still the chance of some drizzle elsewhere but with wins light, the further south and east you are, getting the sunshine, feeling warmer and yesterday, temperatures peaking at 24 in aberdeenshire. possibly 25 in parts of hampshire but temperatures up parts of hampshire but temperatures up on the values yesterday. this evening and overnight, rain to the hebrides, pushing southwards, the odd splash of rain and drizzle, many parts loss of sound rain spreading into north west england and wales later, the rain spreading southwards, showery across parts of england and wales on saturday, but sunshine and warmth, still in the south—east corner. hello, this is bbc news with annita mcveigh. the headlines...

with annita mcveigh. the economic impact of coronavirus — the number of uk workers on payrolls falls by nearly two—thirds of a million since before the lockdown. nearly a third of uk businesses expect to cutjobs in the next three months — according to a survey by the british chambers of commerce. hackers target twitter — breaking into the accounts of some of the biggest names on the platform, including elon musk, barack obama and joe biden. an international team of scientists concludes a prolonged heatwave in siberia this year is "unequivocal evidence of climate change". a sculpture of a black lives matter protester erected in bristol yesterday is taken down after it was installed without the knowledge or permission of the local council. we‘ve been talking aboutjofra archer already. sport and for a full round up,

from the bbc sport centre, here‘s mike bushell. how are you? very good, thank you. we start with cricket and england‘sjofra archer has been excluded from the team to take on the west indies in the second test later. it‘s for breaking bio secure rules. the bowler will now be in self isolation for five days, and undergo two covid—19 tests before he can rejoin the squad. the breach took place between southampton — which staged the last match — and the emirates old trafford. both venues are bio secure meaning all players, coaches and media live on site and can‘t leave. the west indies say they‘re satisfied the right safety meausres have been followed. well, archer has said this. "i am extremely sorry for what i have done. i have put, not only myself, but the whole team and management in danger. i fully accept the consequences of my actions, and i want to sincerely apologise to everyone

in the bio—secure bubble. it deeply pains me to be missing the test match, especially with the series poised. i feel like i have let both teams down, and again i am sorry." well, joining me live from the bio bubble at emirates old trafford is former england player jonathan agnew. good morning, jonathan. you‘ve all had to follow the safety protocols. for one of england ‘s main players to reach them, what has the reaction been like? a great deal of surprise, actually, some disappointment, clearly. you should stress there are three levels at least of these bubbles, clearly the most intense and concentrated, the most restrictive is around the players, the officials, the umpires and management, we cannot see them around, we are in the next level of bio bubble, restrictive, but not as restrictive as that. we were allowed

to go home between test matches as long as we obeyed certain protocols, not going out and about, but the players, the one thing that surprised me, if i‘m honest, there is such a strict level of bio—security. white won the players transported by bus, all together, you know everything is fine, the bus refuel is or whatever, on the way up, facilities laid on for them to go to the toilet, if they want. for all of this level of security, white players were allowed to dry themselves, i find a players were allowed to dry themselves, ifind a bit players were allowed to dry themselves, i find a bit surprising, ifiam themselves, i find a bit surprising, if i am honest. themselves, i find a bit surprising, ifi am honest. maybe something themselves, i find a bit surprising, if i am honest. maybe something to be looked into. the impact on the match, england have to win this to stay in the series but it seriously leaves their bowling attack we can? yes, demonstrates how late this development happened. we were given the team late yesterday afternoon, jofra archer was in it. it can only have been after that that news of the breach came to light, as it were. robinson or curran looks

possible, stuart broad, in the side, i was surprised by that, this is a must win match. both mark wood and james anderson are being rested for this game. it‘s an important game, i ama this game. it‘s an important game, i am a little bit surprised that one of them hasn‘t been brought in to replace jofra archer, more of them hasn‘t been brought in to replacejofra archer, more or less like for like. i suppose hindsight isa like for like. i suppose hindsight is a wonderful thing butjimmy anderson, on ground, bowling at the jimmy anderson end! and in this weather, rather like southampton, this looks to be the sort of day, lots of muscle, rain around, thinking very seriously about bowling first. -- lots of missile. jonathan agnew, thank you. inside the bio bubble, protocols breached during one of the matches. liverpool bossjurgen klopp, says he was "disappointed and angry" as the premier league champions lost at arsenal. it means they can‘t break

the record, for most points in a season. they were ahead before a mistake from captain, virgilvan dike, let in alexander lacazette to equalise for arsenal. and then, more poor defending, helped reiss nelson score the winner, a minute before half time — meaning liverpool can‘t pass manchester city‘s record of 100 points this season. the bournemouth manager eddie howe admits he‘s "devastated" by their 2—1 defeat at manchester city. david silva with the pick of city‘s goals. bournemouth put up a real fight but it leaves them three points from safety, with two games to go. "incredible". that‘s how tottenham boss jose mourinho described harry kane as he passed the 200 goal mark, at club level, with two more at newcastle. spurs won 3—1 taking them up to seventh. and spurs are nowjust a point behind wolves — after they were held to a 1—1 draw at burnley. that‘s despite rauljiminez putting them ahead. however burnley were given a injury time penalty, which chris wood scored.

and the world number one golfer rory mcilroy admits playing golf without fans is impacting his game. he‘s played three events in the past few weeks in the usa — but failed to break into the top 10 at any of them. and later, he tees off alongside tiger woods at the memorial tournament. it‘s very hard for me to keep focus out here. i feel like when there‘s fans and there‘s that energy and atmosphere, it‘s easy to get into that mindset that you need to get into, that‘s what we‘re used to, that‘s what we do. but when you don‘t have that, i felt the first three weeks, my mind was wandering a little bit, easy to lose focus, to lose concentration and i think some of the mistakes that i was making was because of that. it must take some getting used to. and some breaking news before i go.

engand rugby fly half owen farrell has committed his long term future to saracens — despite their relegation from the premiership. more on that and the other sport later. mike, thank you very much. a third town in lancashire is being closely watched as cases of covid—19 continue to rise in the district. there are fears that pendle, along with blackburn and darwen could soon face local lockdowns, similar to that in leicester, if the rate of infection is not controlled. graham satchell has more. in leicester, they are going door—to—door, volunteers handing out test kits, hunting down the virus. would you be interested in taking a test? literally, it is just a swab test. 0k. so, you just put it into the back of your throat. i can do it if you want. yeah, ok. i think a lot of people think, you know, i am fine, i am absolutely fine, but i suppose we don‘t know how many people are still carrying this. who we are not aware of. so, encouraging people, even if they don‘t have symptoms, to take the test. the streets of leicester are still deserted, it remains

the only city in the uk in total lockdown. the number of confirmed cases in leicester is still the highest in the country, but other hotspots like pendle, blackburn, bradford are not far behind. cases in peterborough are also on the rise. my concern is that if we get too many cases amongst our working age population, then inevitably some people who are vulnerable will catch it and we don't want to be in the situation where we are seeing rapid spread. we know how to prevent it, we know the behaviours that will prevent it. we need the whole community to understand that those behaviours need to be followed. nobody in peterborough wants to move to another lockdown. this is blackburn. the local authority here has introduced its own measures, just short of lockdown, to control the numbers. face coverings, for example, must be worn in all enclosed public spaces. shaking hands is not allowed.

local medical experts have put messages out on social media, aimed at the south asian community, where numbers are particularly high. in pendle, there are signs everywhere and again, the centre of concern is the south asian community. it seems to be particularly affecting young south asian individuals between 20 and 40 years. as the lockdown lifts, we are seeing there are still high levels of infection going on in the community. it is a reminder that we are still in the middle of a pandemic and the virus can very quickly come back. back in leicester, a protest in the village of glenfield. it is on the edge of the city and the number of cases here has been relatively small. but kim‘s pub like everything else in the village remains shut. it feels very unfair. i have got a cellar full of beer, which we were hoping that we were opening on the 4th ofjuly and i can‘t use it. leicester should find out today if the lockdown here will continue, but it is clear as time goes on,

local restrictions will become another part of our new normal. graham satchell, bbc news. scientists trialling a covid—19 vaccine at oxford university are expected to give an update on its effectiveness early next week. it comes as a group of 15 nobel prize winners, including one working at oxford, have written an open letter calling for healthy volunteers to be deliberately exposed to the virus in order to speed up the development of a vaccine. our medical correspondent fergus walsh explained the thinking behind any trial that would deliberately try to infect participants with covid—19 yes, it‘s a really interesting idea and it‘s been tried many, many times before. i have watched as somebody has been deliberately infected with typhoid after they‘d received a typhoid after they‘d received a typhoid vaccine. that was done in oxford, must be a decade or more

ago. and it‘s been tried with malaria vaccines, it‘s a well tried and trusted technique to show whether a vaccine works. it hasn‘t been tried so far with coronavirus vaccines because there haven‘t been proven treatments, well, we do have a couple of those now. but there is a couple of those now. but there is a growing move, growing drive, to try and have what they call these challenge studies, and some of the arguments behind that are that really very young, fit people in their early 20s, with no underlying health conditions, they would be at extremely low risk of being very u nwell extremely low risk of being very unwell if the vaccine didn‘t work and it would be a way of us finding out almost immediately, whether any of the hundred, 140 vaccines in early development, 23 now in the clinic, whether any of them actually

work. fergus walsh. the headlines on bbc news... the economic impact of coronavirus — the number of uk workers on payrolls falls by nearly two—thirds of a million since before the lockdown. nearly a third of uk businesses expect to cutjobs in the next three months, according to a survey by the british chambers of commerce. hackers target twitter — breaking into the accounts of some of the biggest names on the platform, including elon musk, barack obama and joe biden. scientists say they‘ve found "unequivocal evidence of the impact of climate change on the planet". a record—breaking heatwave in siberia over the past six months has seen temperatures in the arctic circle reach as high as 38 degrees celsius — and five degrees above the average for the region. a team of scientists led by the uk met office say the average temperatures would have been "almost impossible without man—made global warming". i‘m joined now by professor martin siegert, who‘s co—director

of the grantham institute for climate change at imperial college london. professor, thanks for joining professor, thanks forjoining us today. siberia is a byword for the cold est of today. siberia is a byword for the coldest of cold conditions, isn‘t it? to talk about siberia and a heatwave in the same sentence, it doesn‘t seem right! heatwave in the same sentence, it doesn't seem right! it certainly is in the wintertime, no doubt, but in the summer time it gets quite warm but not usually at the extreme level that we‘ve seen in the last six months or so. the arctic is warming at twice the rate of the rest of the planets we‘ve experienced about one celsius of warming since 1850 and that‘s due to humans putting carbon dioxide into the atmosphere but the arctic is warming at twice that rate, we now have more than 2 degrees of warming in the article. is this one of the strongest pieces of evidence that you‘ve ever seen for man—made climate change? certainly, people i‘ve spoken to

when we found out about the weather eventin when we found out about the weather event in the arctic, were immediately linking it to climate change because it‘s so unusual, it‘s so extreme. but, of course, just having a hunch is not good enough and what the people in the met office have done is crunch the numbers and demonstrated it‘s virtually impossible to get this type of heating without the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere that it carbon dioxide in the atmosphere thatitis carbon dioxide in the atmosphere that it is right now. it's incredibly striking that this period of high temperatures lasted for six months? indeed, that's what makes it particularly frightening. it‘s not just a short—term event, something that‘s gone on for an extended period stop the arctic is a fragile place and if we change it, then we will all see the effects of that, it‘s a problem for us, we are very close to the arctic in the united kingdom, the most northerly non—arctic state, when you look at your weather map on the bbc, just above the screen, that‘s pretty much in the arctic, when conditions change in the arctic we should expect our conditions to change also. which leads me to my next point about the consequences of this

warming in the article for the rest of the world. and more specifically the uk. we know we had extreme weather events before, linked to conditions in the arctic, the beast from the east, people remember that from the east, people remember that from a few years ago, very cold arctic air moved southwards and westwards a cross arctic air moved southwards and westwards across us arctic air moved southwards and westwards across us for several weeks and people will remember storms, earlier this year but also a few years ago. a blocking high situation in the arctic coast storm after storm after storm to come over us after storm after storm to come over us and not go further north. so we know that we are affected by the situation in the arctic, what we are less certain of is precisely how a changing arctic will affect us. it stands to reason that well but in fairness, we don‘t know the details of how a change in our to know it‘s happening, is going to change us. it's happening, is going to change us. it‘s a big gap in our knowledge at the moment. and it‘s something we think the uk has a strategic need to find out about. in this arctic biome

you have the permafrost which traps a lot of greenhouse gases so if that is affected, melts, we can all do the equation, can we? they may think that would be released from permafrost is a very potent greenhouse gas and we do a lot of damage but it‘s more serious than that, even. we know the arctic sea ice, the very thin layer of ice over the arctic ocean is reducing at something like 4% a year and has been since we‘ve been able to measure it, since the 1970s or so and that‘s really important. at the moment it‘s a wide service, the sun ‘s energy bounces back into space, reflecting off that service but if it melts, it is replaced by a dark service, absorbing service, the more seaice service, absorbing service, the more sea ice we lose, the more the arctic heats up and there is a feedback process that takes into account. but there‘s another reason that‘s important, the arctic sea ice is essentially a lid on the arctic ocean from the winds above it, you think about the north sea, we have

waves generated and the winds whip up waves generated and the winds whip up the ocean, that doesn‘t really happen in the arctic because of this very thin layer of ice acting as a lid. if that is removed, as it is slowly becoming removed, you start to mobilise the water masses in the arctic and the frightening thing is, it isa arctic and the frightening thing is, it is a lot of warm water in the arctic ocean, 100 metres or so beneath the surface and it starts to get whipped up, coming to the service, we will see more warming. we know what to do about this, professor, the efforts being made to try to counteract climate change compared to what‘s happening which is causing climate change, do you have any hope that actually we are making inroads into dealing with global warming? making inroads into dealing with globalwarming? the making inroads into dealing with global warming? the situation is well understood, at a gross level. we are causing climate change, the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is 400 parts per million, it hasn‘t been that high in about 4 million years and 4 million years ago the temperatures were three or 4

degrees warmer than now, sea levels we re degrees warmer than now, sea levels were 20 metres higher, given enough time that‘s probably what we will end up with and we know this is the case. the international scientific community has established an understanding of this and a plan to make sure we reduce global emissions to zero within 30 years, that‘s a colossal effort but i am pleased to see the united kingdom understands that. we have a legally binding commitment to reduce net co2 emissions by 2050, other countries need to follow that. we need to change a lot of things we do and the way we live but we have to engage. governments have been distracted, obviously, by a coronavirus, dealing with coronavirus, looking at how they can restart economies from the job in hand in terms of protecting the environment, although governments are talking about green recovery from the pandemic. where does that leave us? it‘s really good to see some countries are taking

account we get the economy back on track again, it‘s not a return to what we had before, because that wasn‘t good enough from a climate change perspective. this is not the opportunity we wanted but it is an opportunity, nonetheless, to start to form an economy that is also very low carbon emissions economy. the united kingdom understands that, we have a road map that has climate change written all the way through it, we have a recovery from covid 19 report that establishes the need to really invest in solutions to climate change, the european union does as well. joe biden understands as well. now is the time for action to make it happen over the next ten -30 to make it happen over the next ten — 30 years. to make it happen over the next ten - 30 years. professor, good to talk to you, thank you. well, if you have thoughts regarding climate, let us know. or indeed any of the other stories

today, we are talking about unemployment today. get in touch with us on all the usual ways. eu leaders are meeting for a summit in brussels this week to try to work out a common response to the economic damage from coronavirus. significant differences among member states remain on key issues, including whether the recovery fund will be based on loans or outright grants to those in need. it‘s the issue holding up the deal. the so—called frugal countries, the netherlands, austria, denmark and sweden, say the fund should be used to issue loans, since grants would have to be repaid by all eu taxpayers. bethany bell reports on the mood in austria. this man tends his vineyards in eastern austria. the lockdown here has eased in recent weeks, but he has lost half his yearly income. he says it is important for austria to help other eu countries, but he says they should be given loans, not grants. people will say, why, we are working so hard, nobody is giving us money, we have been working so hard, we have our children,

we have our next generation. we will help, but they should give us the money back. not tomorrow, but there should be a plan that the people who got the money, they have to pay back. will says he supports the tough position taken by the austrian chancellor sebastien kurtz in negotiating the eu‘s recovery fund. sebastien kurtz is doing well in the opinion polls and his message about being careful with austrian taxpayers money and bargaining hard with the eu is popular. but observers here say there will be a deal. the austrian government knows that in the end europe is about compromise and that there will be a compromise. that is how europe works. it is easy for them to be tough for negotiations and then come home with a victory, because in the end they know there will be a compromise, which will be also beneficial for them. other austrians say that sebastien kurtz‘s rhetoric is too hardline and nationalist. this translator says austria

should show more solidarity. i think it is populist and egotistical and, frankly, a quite stupid position, because austria, while being a rich country, is dependent on its neighbours and the eu and the euro and it is a common currency and we should finance countries together. will says he is preparing to go to italy to train a winemaking business there. many here realise that help is needed throughout europe, but when it comes to money, the devil is always in the details. bethany bell, bbc news, in eastern austria. here‘s the weather with matt taylor. hello. there will be a bit more sunshine today but even if the cloud remains in place it should be a bit brighter than it was during yesterday. also looking warmer across many parts of the country. let‘s look at the details. going into the afternoon, the odd spot of

light rain and drizzle, tempest in the north and west of scotland, particularly across the hebrides, this weather front approaching, breeze picking up, heavy bursts of rain. away from that, lots of cloud in the north—west of scotland, 15 degrees are high, warmer to the east of the high ground, aberdeenshire, reaching 24 degrees. breaks in the cloud possible, sunny spells possible, may still be gloomy on some of the hills in the mess, temperatures in the teens, more widely into the 20s this afternoon. across hampshire, we could see highest temperatures, 25 possible. this evening and overnight, rain across the hebrides clears, spreading to western scotland, the odd splash further north—east as well. damper in northern ireland. won‘t be a cold night, temperatures holding in double figures, the mid—teens for the vast majority. mile started friday morning, rain at times in south—west scotland, northern ireland, brightening up

later. turning better across northumberland, north lancashire, cou nty northumberland, north lancashire, county durham, as well as anglesea. that is the dividing line between fresh whether further north, even with sunshine, and humid conditions further south, any sunshine could live temperatures up to 27 degrees. as we go through friday night into saturday, the weather front moving south. starting the day cloudy, some rainfor south. starting the day cloudy, some rain for parts of northern england, north and west wales, may stay damp across wales during the day, showery conditions across the midlands, lincolnshire. in the south—east and the channel islands, staying dry and sunny throughout, pretty warm, further north of this front, brighter in northern england, scotla nd brighter in northern england, scotland and northern ireland, showers with sunshine. pressure pushing south as we go through saturday into sunday. still lingering across east anglia and the south—east for early sunday, it should stay clear, mostly dry force most of us, showers in the north—west of scotland, pressure and

we see over the next few days but pleasa nt we see over the next few days but pleasant enough in the sunshine.
