good morning. welcome to breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. our headlines today: self—isolate or face a £1,000 fine — new laws come into effect in england today, for anyone testing positive for coronavirus. three more areas of wales are going into local lockdown, meaning nearly two—thirds of the country will be living under tighter restrictions. 0ur planet in peril — a world exclusive with sir david attenborough, who tells us about his fears for the natural world, and how young people can save it. it's their world and it's there tomorrow. i won't be there. they

will be. it's this. and if they aren't persuaded it's important, we aren't persuaded it's important, we are wasting our time. "there's plenty of stock, so don't panic buy." that's the message from supermarkets as tesco and morrisons reimpose rationing of essentials. asda's also getting tough on shoppers without masks, as retailers react to the latest coronavirus restrictions. good morning from the seville garden in surrey where it is a chilly start to the day. for many of us it is generally, we have a weather front coming in from the west bringing in some rain, in the east the cloud will clear and there will be some sunny spells. i will have all of the details in about ten minutes. it's monday, september 28. our top story. new laws come into force in england this morning, which mean that anyone who tests positive for coronavirus, or has been told they have been in contact with someone who has, now has a legal duty to quarantine, orface a fine.

the government says that the police will check—up on those who fail to comply by acting on "local intelligence". under the new laws — anyone required to self—isolate but failing to do so will be fined £1,000 and there will be a maximum fine of £10,000 for repeat offenders. the government hopes the measures will significantly reduce the spread of the virus. people on low incomes who can't work, and are losing income while self—isolating, will be eligible able to get a £500 test and trace payment. this comes as three more counties in wales have extra restrictions imposed later — meaning nearly two thirds of the country's population will be under lockdown, as tomos morgan reports. from today, people across england will be required by law to self—isolate if they test positive 01’ self—isolate if they test positive ora self—isolate if they test positive or a contact, through and arejust as the dress was that there are restrictions on wedding guests, only 15 people will be able to attend a

marriage ceremony for the foreseeable. across the board in wales, the number of wedding guests remains at 3a now, that further measures come into force here in other aspects of life stop cardiff has become the first uk nation capital to build back into lockdown measures. residence in swansea will have extra measures based upon them, extended household bubbles will be stopped, meaning mixing with people from other households indoors will have to end for now, up to 30 can meet outside at a social distance. nobody will be able to leave city areas without a valid reason, such as going to a place of work we are working from home is not possible, going to school orfor working from home is not possible, going to school or for caring responsibilities. the first minister, mark drakeford, has also said three local authorities will be based under local lockdown measures from this evening. figures have continued to deteriorate in those three areas over the weekend. we singled on friday that we would be keeping them under very close scrutiny —— signalled, and the

advice we have had is now is the moment we need to act and local reception will apply in those three areas. from this evening, 1.8 million people, more than half of the population of wales will be living under local lockdown restrictions, with cases continuing to rise across the country, the prospect of another wales wide lockdown becomes more of a realistic possibility. tomos morgan, bbc news, cardiff. meanwhile, borisjohnson is coming under increased pressure from a group of conservative backbenchers, who are calling for parliament to have a greater influence over any new coronavirus restrictions. 0ur political correspondent iain watson is in westminster this morning with the latest. mps will be discussing this throughout the whole week, won't they, good morning? yes, they are. there will be a debate on coronavirus restrictions today, but wednesday is the crucial day, because at that point the government has to renew its emergency powers. backin has to renew its emergency powers. back in march the ministers took huge powers to themselves in the

midst of the pandemic. but, the agreement they raised with parliament is they would have to be renewed after six months. what is happening now is there is an attempt bya happening now is there is an attempt by a proper —— prominently but not entirely conservative mps that ministers should come back to parliament anything they want a new restriction at a uk wide or nationwide level. parliament would have to give explicit approval. this is being led by conservative mps. crucially, the leader of this movement has support from labour, the democrats and dup. there is some assumption the government could be defeated. so, we will be listening to see if the government is going to make any concessions. there is a bit of parliamentary procedure i have to imagine, it is not guaranteed his attempt, an amendment be cold for

debate later this week. in terms of showing the strength of feeling on the conservative side as well as opposition mps, the government can be in no doubt that many mps want more say and more scrutiny over the decisions government ministers are taking. 0h, decisions government ministers are taking. oh, thank you very much for taking. oh, thank you very much for taking us to parliamentary procedure as well this early in the day. thank you. —— iain, cue. —— thank you. after crowds of people were pictured gathering in city centres and piling onto public transport over the weekend, the government is under growing pressure to review the 10pm curfew on pubs, bars and restaurants. concerns have been raised that the restriction encourages customers to all leave at once and to carry on drinking together at each other‘s homes. but yesterday, the culture secretary 0liver dowden insisted that there was "science" behind the decision. all first—year and foundation students at manchester metropolitan university will be taught exclusively online for the next two weeks to try to stop a coronavirus outbreak from spreading. 1,700 freshers are

self—isolating in halls of residence after more than a hundred tested positive last week. john mcmanus has the latest. spelling it out. the message from feepaying students in manchester is clear. as the academic year begins, thousands of them around the uk have been sold to self—isolate. it's an unwelcome start for those who had been dreaming of living independently, away from home. manchester metropolitan university says it is helping with essentials like shopping, laundry access and medicines, but parents have also been on hand. and it has announced all lessons for first—year students will be online only for next fortnight. it's a similar story in glasgow, where scottish students have been advised not to travel home, and if they must, not to stay overnight. for all new arrivals, like bees at newcastle, this year's fresh we will be different.” like bees at newcastle, this year's fresh we will be different. i am moving in with nine other people in

my flat, we are joining a moving in with nine other people in my flat, we arejoining a bubble moving in with nine other people in my flat, we are joining a bubble and hopefully that is going to keep us safe. i am excited but quite nervous because you don't really know what to expect. but, i am just going to make the most of it. university authorities say they need to keep stu d e nts authorities say they need to keep students and staff are safe, but there are some calls for a refund of accommodation fees stop its a terrible mess and nobody wanted this and it is heartbreaking all around. and of course, the students can have their lived in experience and have to go home, because it is right that their accommodation fees should be refunded to them. last week the health secretary, matt hancock, refused to confirm that students would be allowed to go home at christmas. 0ne mother who hasjust dropped off her daughter in durham had some worry. i would like her home at christmas. i hope the position we will get to in ten weeks is that i would like to think that by the time they have gone through this and maybe there has been some local infections and lockdowns, et

cetera, that in ten weeks' time they might be in a position to let them come home. that is what i hope. banned from the student union bar, some new arrivals have managed to see the funny side. but if the restrictions on young adults continue into the autumn term, the mood may turn rebellious. john mcmanus, bbc news. donald trump has hit back at a newspaper report claiming he paid just $750 — about £590 — in income tax in the year he became president. the new york times also says he paid no income tax in ten of the past 15 years. mr trump said the report was "made—up, fake news". he's the first president since the 1970s not to make his tax returns public, though this is not required by law. here's our north america correspondent, peter bowes. once again, donald trump and his tax returns — the story that's dogged the president ever since he announced he was running for office, and long before as a businessman.

now the new york times says it's obtained tax return data from mr trump dating back more than two decades, along with the hundreds of companies that make up his business organisation, and detailed information from his first two years in the white house. the paper says the data shows his finances are under stress, beset by losses, with struggling properties and hundreds of millions of dollars in debt. it reports that mr trump paid only $750 in federal income taxes in the year he won the presidency, and another $750 during his first year in office. he paid no income tax at all in ten of the previous 15 years, according to the paper. this, it says, was largely because he reported losing much more money than he made. speaking at a news conference at the white house, he was quick to deny the latest story. it's fake news. it's totally fake news, made—up, fake. we went through the same stories —

you could've asked me the same questions — four years ago i had to litigate this and talk about it. uh, totally fake news, no. actually, i paid tax, but — and you'll see that as soon as my tax returns are — it's under audit. they've been under audit for a long time. it follows mr trump's controversial nomination of a conservative judge to sit on the us supreme court. it also marks the start of a pivotal week in the campaign, when the president and joe biden will finally go head—to—head on tv. peter bowes, bbc news, los angeles. now it's time for the weather. and carol's in windsor great park for us this morning. i have garden envy, good morning carol. are you cold, carol? it is! i am slowly turning blue! good morning, everybody! we are in the south garden in surrey and it is beautiful. look at that view behind me. we have clear skies so it is a chilly start. the seville garden is

within winds are great park, winds are great park itself is 8000 acres, saddle garden is 35 acres. at the moment there is an exhibition taking place cold out in the garden, and its surrey sculptures. as we go through the morning we will see more of the garden and the beautiful flowers that you can see behind me. it is chilly. temperatures and because of the west midlands at the moment are below freezing, so there isa moment are below freezing, so there is a touch of frost around. something to bear in mind if you are a keen gardener. the forecast for this week is that it is going to stay rather cool than by the middle of the week it is going turn that bit more unsettled. i day and into the weekend is looking like a deep potent area of low pressure is going to come our way, and with that, if you look at the isobars later in the programme, you will see that it is potentially going to be stormy. this morning there is a lot of cloud across eastern areas, behind the cloud, where we have got the clear skies and low temperatures, there is some sunshine. a weather front

already coming into the west is reducing rain across parts of northern ireland, western scotland and wales and the south—west. through the day that is going to move slowly eastwards, bringing some rain with it as it does so. temperatures ranging from 12 in the north to 19 in the south. through this evening and overnight that same weather front will drift further east, weakening over time, so there will mostly be a band of cloud and patchy light rain as it travels over towards eastern and south—eastern england. behind it we will see some clear skies with a few showers across northern ireland and goblin. cool in the north, 5—7. as we come down towards plymouth and london, 11-13 -- down towards plymouth and london, 11—13 —— northern ireland and scotland. many of us will have some sunshine, but still some showers in the north—west, with highs of up to 17 or 18 degrees. i will have a longer forecast at quarter to. it is

stunning there. lovely to chat to you throughout the morning. let's take a look at today's papers. it is the start of a new wheeze. —— week. the daily mail says people who have been told to quarantine could receive a visit from the police, who will be able to carry out spot checks and act on tip—offs to check people are self—isolating. the daily telegraph suggests that people are becoming increasingly fatigued by lockdown measures and reports that up to 100 conservative mps are now ready to back a call for parliament to have more say on future lockdown measures. the metro reports there are calls for borisjohnson to reconsider the 10pm curfew. it comes after footage showed crowds of people partying in cities across england. we have shown you some of that footage. and a story that has emerged overnight from the us —

the new york times says it has obtained president trump's tax records. the paper alleges mr trump has not paid income taxes in 10 of the previous 15 years. he as of course reacted to that saying it was fake news, i think was the quote. the inside pages? do you have a cuppa the inside pages? do you have a cu p pa tea the inside pages? do you have a cuppa tea or coffee in there or what? i have had a tea and i went to coffee. why? he has to be hot and coffee. why? he has to be hot and coffee i can literally drink cold. well, this t5 spot... not very hot though! have steam coming out of their ears after beverage boffins claimed that boiling water was too hot for a nice cuppa. i agree. they say 80% hot water 20% mix of cold water. this is martin, a professional food and drink taster. go on. breakfast he should be served

at 80 degrees. should be made 80 degrees. 0ver boiling water and dunking teabags to long live are tasting no better than cabbage water! it is time to debunk the myth that you should use boiling water. the argument is we use it because in the olden days we had to try and kill off... bugs. bugs and things and we had to boil it. it will kill the desirable nuances of tea and leave it tasting far too much of astringent tannins. simply not true you need to boil water to make a cup of tea! stop it! i feel lots of people will want to get involved in that conversation and i boil it but i let it cool down a little bit.|j am straight in. are you? if it was coffee, i don't drink coffee, but i would leave it a little bit. how do you know if you don't drink coffee? you know i would drink coffee if it was stone cold but... a beautiful

photograph from carol this morning, from the daily mirror about the indian summer, saying trees and pla nts indian summer, saying trees and plants have left blooming as if it was spring and gardeners in surrey say the apple trees are heavy with fruit and blossoms for the first time in 22 years and magnolia and wisteria normally seen in may have flourished in september. talking about gardens throughout this morning and actually i think carol will us later, i'm interested in this, i had to put my garden to bed for the winter. you have become a little bit of a... i don't know what has happened, it is lockdown, i am now a gardener! green fingers! "there is no need to panic buy" — that's the message to customers from supermarkets as much of the uk gets used to tougher coronavirus restrictions. nina's looking into this one today. lam i am panicking lam panicking now i am panicking now that i have made tea wrong all of my life. it is

nothing like cabbage water! 0nto more important things, panic buying! yes, who could forget those scenes from early in the pandemic of empty shelves where people had panic bought essentials like hand gels, nappies and of course toilet rolls. in fact, by the end of the first week in march, shoppers had spent almost £18 million on toilet rolls — up nearly 90% compared to the average. in response, all the major supermarkets introduced temporary restrictions, limiting the amount one person could buy at any one time. those restrictions of course lifted as stocks recovered. so why are we talking about this again? last week, tesco and morrisons — the uk's first and fourth biggest supermarkets — re—imposed rationing of essentials like toilet roll, disinfectants and bleach. they both said there's plenty of stock but they wanted to be sure everyone could access it. morrisons also said it is also limiting sales of flour, rice and oil from its world foods aisle, which tend to come in larger pack sizes.

so people had been panic buying them. we spoke to the other big supermarkets. they said they had no plans to introduce restrictions at the moment. the boss of iceland told breakfast that yes, there was a small uptick in some essentials, but that there is plenty to go round if everyone is sensible. the mood of the nation is concerned andi the mood of the nation is concerned and i understand people are concerned and one way for them to try and get in control of a situation in which they have none is to comfort by. and i suppose that is what fuelled it last time and if you think back to march and april, it was pretty ugly scenes at times where shelves were stripped back and certain people were left without. those who were elderly, vulnerable, those in really important roles like the nhs who could not get into the stores in the daytime often found empty shelves and my big problem

with panic buying is that it is socially divisive. it is only an option to those who can afford it and many people simply cannot afford that luxury so i think we all as consumers have a responsibility to shop responsibly and buy only what we need. that's right. nevertheless, this comes at a time of increased pressure for the supermarkets. last week, the prime minister introduced new measures to help stop the spread of coronavirus. it included increasing the fine for those not wearing a face covering in the shops. in response, morrison and asda have said they are bringing in marshals to their biggest stores — these are extra staff on the door to monitor shoppers behaviour and ensure they are following the rules. it's unlikely we'll see panic buying like we did in march. experts point to the way supermarkets have changed how they operate. their supply chains are more efficient. better online delivery means fewer shoppers in store. tesco are now offering 1.5 million

weekly delivery slots, compared with 600,000 in march. and sainsbury‘s said its website could now serve twice as many people as six months ago, so hopefully not. hopefully we will not see those scenes we saw in march and i keep thinking about those who are leaving the supermarkets with big trolleys full of little roles and they must‘ve had their entire cupboard full through all of summer. nina, thank you. 21 minutes past six. more about our world exclusive from sir david attenborough so after seeing planet ea rth‘s sir david attenborough so after seeing planet earth's while displaces few people know the natural world as well as so david. ina natural world as well as so david. in a world exclusive, broadcast interview with us today, i have been talking and i am very lucky, actually, to talk to so david about all sorts of things so what he has done is written a book and he has a new film out which will be in cinemas and it is called a life on

our planet and about his life and what it really is is his witness statement, in the film and in the book, he lays out where we are in the planet right now and the changes he has seen over those many decades of those wonderful programmes we have seen him do. and how concerned he is about what he sees is going to bea he is about what he sees is going to be a sixth extinction so it is about what we can do about it and what he thinks —— where he thinks we are and if we do not change, where we will be, which is in a very perilous state. so many different things to talk to him about, including one of the things i wanted to talk to him about and every time we cover this kind of thing on breakfast everyone wa nts to kind of thing on breakfast everyone wants to know what can you do as a family and what can i do? how can we make a difference? how do any of us make a difference? how do any of us make a difference and i said what is the single thing anyone watching this morning can do to help make changes and this is what he said. don't waste. don't waste anything. don't waste electricity. don't waste food. don't

waste power. just treat the natural world is precious, which it is, and don't squander those bits of it that we have control of. a simple message, isn't it, and you can do that in so many different ways i think probably as individuals. i also asked him about the film and documentary and book that you get a sense of his grief because he has seen so many changes and he talks about the moment when he realised that as humans, we were changing the natural world and he went to a coral reef that he has gone to before and he went back and it was completely bleached he talked about it of being skeletons and really looking at the impact that we are all making. i also talk to him about the point about 0k, also talk to him about the point about ok, you and i and everyone watching tries to make a difference, tries to make a change, but what about the fact that other countries,

bigger countries, hopes are not making those same changes in what was his response to that? we have to do what is in our power. we have to do what is in our power. we cannot take that as an excuse of doing nothing. we must do everything that all of us can do and must do. china is taking very big steps, you know, in many directions. it is a huge country with an immense population. and they are starting doing things about sorting out the climate and their weather, which has caused them such problems. so china is moving in the right direction. i agree that the present administration in america is, from a conservationist point of view, disastrous but there we are. i mean, thatis disastrous but there we are. i mean, that is who has been elected and we have to go through it. and of course hejoined instagram have to go through it. and of course he joined instagram last have to go through it. and of course hejoined instagram last week have to go through it. and of course he joined instagram last week and a lot of people that he was the fastest person ever to get to 1 million followers and four posts,

not following anybody, 4.4 million followers on instagram. that is a really interesting thing because he very much talked about young people and the fact that they are listening and the fact that they are listening and the fact that they are listening and the fact that they are the ones, the generation that can really make a difference. and yes, he is not doing those posts on instagram! it is his face though, isn't it? it absolutely is and it is interesting because he was quite delighted actually. have a look. iamso i am so old and it is difficult to teach an old dog new tricks you know andi teach an old dog new tricks you know and i am not a teach an old dog new tricks you know and i am nota great teach an old dog new tricks you know and i am not a great user of social media and! and i am not a great user of social media and i haven't instagram before. but the message that i am concerned about is so important, i would use any medium to get it across. true like example instagram and other ways of social media you do have a chance to reach out to a different audience but there is a real sense, because we have had so many people get in touch with us and

our questions about the younger generation seeming to be, many of them on board. how does that make you feel? 0h, them on board. how does that make you feel? oh, well, that is the great hope! that is the most important hope! the most important place where they should be —— where there should be hope! it is their world and it is there tomorrow. i won't be there. they will be! it is theirs! and if they are not persuaded it is important, we are wasting our time! of course it is very important that young people should be concerned about this. and they are, in increasing numbers. it is extraordinarily touching. and i feel privileged that they should listen to what an old bloke like me is talking about. they are certainly listening. what was really striking about the whole interview was that although he is very, very concerned about where we are, there was a real note of optimism and he and the film by saying it is not about saving the planet, it is about saving ourselves but that is what i took away from

it, one moment he says we can make changes. which is really important. and it is down to young people. a bit of responsibility then! notjust everybody. full—length interview, because that was a snippet, louise's world exclusive with the david attenborough, you can see the whole thing after eight o'clock this morning on breakfast. and also to let you know, i know so many of you sentin let you know, i know so many of you sent in messages, particularly from children, questions to sir david, andi children, questions to sir david, and i tried to get through as many asi and i tried to get through as many as i possibly could. he was brilliant at answering them and i will show those as well tomorrow. he just loves responding to specifically questions about what is your favourite animal, et cetera. all of that to come over the course of the next few days then on brea kfast of the next few days then on breakfast and more from sir david after eight o'clock. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london.

the suspect in the murder of police officer sergeant matiu rata na has been named. louis de zoysa, a 23—year—old from norbury, is thought to have shot himself and is currently critically ill in hospital. tributes were paid over the weekend to new zealand—born matiu ratana by friends and team—mates at the east grinstead rugby club. prince charles leads tributes to police officers killed on duty on national police memorial day. but they are questioning another man who was arrested in norwich over the weekend on suspicion of supplying a gun. sergeant matiu ratana was working in the croydon custody centre when he was shot on friday morning. deeply saddening, really, he's an absolute on and off the pick, in and out of the custody suite. you can count on him for anything you need. you know, any question was never too much for him, any support was never too much for him. he was an absolute star and we should always remember the bravery and the courage that he put on the line. residents of hackney are being urged

to get their free flu jab this year. it comes as data shows that the area has seen one of the largest drops in vaccinations among at—risk under—65s in england over the last five years. there are concerns over the health system's ability to handle flu season at the same time as a second wave of coronavirus. the number of first time buyers in the uk has fallen for the first time in five years — that's according to research by zoopla — and demand from first—time buyers is weakest in the capital. it's thought the economic fallout of covid—19 and reduced availability of mortgages for those on lower incomes has impacted demand. let's take a look at the travel situation now. 0n the tube, there are minor delays on the central line. a good service elsewhere. 0n the roads, it's busy around vauxhall because of the closure of vauxhall bridge. in westminster, millbank is closed from parliament square to lambeth bridge for security works. now, the weather with kate kinsella.

good morning. compare to the weekend it is certainly a less windy start to the week and it is quite mild though. starting the day with quite a bit of cloud and the cloud this morning is a cold front, moving away eastwards so gradually, we will start to see more sunshine, especially through this afternoon and like! especially through this afternoon and like i said winds lighter than the weekend. temperatures today feeling quite warm with the sunny spells, looking at a maximum rate of 19. you will notice this cloud coming in towards the west, at the end of the afternoon towards the evening, it is also a cold front and you may get some patchy rain overnight. the minimum temperature still mild, 10—13. 0nce overnight. the minimum temperature still mild, 10—13. once again the cold front will move away through the course of tuesday and we will see some sunshine behind it so tomorrow afternoon, sunshine, patchy cloud, temperatures similar, maximum of 18-19.

cloud, temperatures similar, maximum of 18—19. wednesday though, the next area of low pressure brings some sometimes wet and windy conditions, really, for the of this week. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. it's just gone 6:30am. we'll bring you all the latest news and sport in a moment, but also on breakfast this morning. we'll have more from our world exclusive with sir david attenborough on his fears for the planet, life in lockdown and his record—breaking instagram debut. 4.4 million followers already. as freddie flintoff‘s powerful documentary on bulimia airs tonight, we'll hear from men and their families about the devastating impact of eating disorders.

and do you remember ‘little grey‘ and ‘little white' — the beluga whales rescued from captivity? we‘ll be live in iceland to find out how they got on with their first swim in an open—water sanctuary. i remember last time we talked, it was just i remember last time we talked, it wasjust wonderful to i remember last time we talked, it was just wonderful to see where were. hopefully they might be swimming while we are talking to them, but that is coming up later. from today, anyone testing positive for coronavirus in england could be fined £10,000 if they don‘t self—isolate. the government says the police will enforce the new laws, by checking in on households, and acting on information about those accused of breaking the rules. let‘s discuss that and all the day‘s other health stories, with our gp, zoe norris. good morning. thank you very much for being with us this morning. should we start there this morning, those fines on people being — failing to self—isolate? when we

speak to you as a gp, you are speaking to the general public of the time whether as on the phone or doing those sort of face—to—face consultations. what are you hearing back from these changes coming into force ? back from these changes coming into force? i think most patients that i‘m speaking to a very happy to follow the advice, very happy to self—isolate when appropriate, i think the main concern a lot of them haveis think the main concern a lot of them have is whether they are able to get a test in a timely way, do know whether they are definitely positive, and whether or not the symptoms they have our coronavirus. there is still quite a lot of confusion about what covid feels like as symptoms to have, and i think a lot of people are perhaps dismissing those symptoms and thinking well, it doesn‘t feel like covid, so, therefore, i do not need a test. when in fact they are positive. the whole idea of this test and trace programme or app, how has the feedback of that been going down? i know millions of people have downloaded it over the last few

days. i think bemused is probably the best description i can give you. we have had people downloaded who are quite tech savvy but don‘t know how to input test results as positive or negative stop then we have patients who have perhaps a to call family but aren‘t tech savvy generally, they do not know how to get the app, they do not know how to put information into it and upload things. a group of our patients who do not have smartphones, who do not have access to the necessary technology or have older models we cannot use it and they are being asked to do things like scan qr codes. they have no idea how to do that and have no ability to do it.|j have a conversation with my mum about qr codes as she is in her 70s. i think she did look a bit bemused at the idea of how to do a qr code and where to find it. i think that is the problem. what i am hearing some places are being really sensible and helpful, but some

places are saying you cannot come in u nless places are saying you cannot come in unless you scan this qr code on your phone. that excludes a whole bit of society, and this should be something that patients could choose to do, it should be something that they have to do. last time we had you on, zoe, we talked about the importance of flu jabs this autumn. you talked about flu clinics and how those were being run. what about supply of those flu jabs? are you having difficulties with that? massive difficulties. what we have seen is that it is really important to understand that when we order flu jabs, we ordered them roughly 12 months in advance. the deadline for ordering flu jabs when i was in march of this year, so, before the pandemic. —— was in march of this year. we order on previous uptake in the number of patients. if you are someone with asthma and you have a lwa ys someone with asthma and you have

always had your flu jab at your gp, there is one ordered for you, there isa there is one ordered for you, there is a bit of leeway but not a huge amount. this year, when everybody who is at risk that is, yes, i want one, or have come late, we are already running out. the government has impounded all this despair stock which we normally can act as if we are running low. so, places are running out. we don‘t have enough to give to patients. what will be the outcome of that? is there anyway to really start? is the government trying to ensure supplies for gps and other places? not at the moment. i think for us as soon as the government becomes involved in something that is normally delivered ata something that is normally delivered at a very local level with gp surgeries, then the government needs to ta ke surgeries, then the government needs to take some responsibility and be co—ordinating how they are going to deal with this, because we have lots of patients asking, they are getting quite a rate and quite upset, as indeed us and our staff. and there is nothing we can do. we don‘t have the vaccines. it seems there is quite a bit to pick up there. we

will be speaking to the government later on. a government minister will be with us. we are going to talk to sally about...? we are going to talk to sally about. . . ? it is we are going to talk to sally about...? it is all about we are going to talk to sally about. . . ? it is all about hands. people are getting stressed. and it is also not a new rule. it was brought in last year, butjust this seasonit brought in last year, butjust this season it is being enforced. the handball rule. you can see poor eric dier, what was he supposed to do? the ball hits his hand but he was facing the other way. what can he do? handball was the word of the weekend in the premier league. so much controversy over the way the laws are now being interpreted. two controversial penalties awarded on saturday, another yesterday. as i mentioned, tottenham‘s eric dier was the man punished this time against newcastle. it was given because dier‘s arm wasjudged to have been "made unnaturally bigger". these aren‘t brand new laws,

they‘rejust being enforced more harshly now by fifa. so far this season, six penalties have been awarded for handball compared to 19 in the entirety of the last season. newcastle scored their penalty to get a 1—1 draw, but even their manager was unhappy. i think we have lost the plot. i really do. i think it loses the spectacle, also. we are waiting around for 3—4 minutes. is it a penalty, is it not? if that had been the boot on the other foot, it's like, hang on a minute, this is ridiculous. elsewhere in the premier league, yesterday, a really big win for leicester over manchester city. jamie vardy got himself a hat—trick in the 5—2 victory. jame maddison also scored a stunner at the etihad. wins too yesterday for leeds and west ham. both celtic and rangers remain unbeaten at the top of the scottish premiership. rangers new signing cedric itten scored his first two goals for the club in their 5—1 win at motherwell.

that keeps them just a point ahead of celtic who beat hibs 3—0. aberdeen also beat ross county. there was an upset in the women‘s fa cup as the wsl champions chelsea were beaten 2—1 by everton — valerie gauvin with the winner at goodison park. they‘ll now play birmingham in the semis. it‘s cold at the french 0pen tennis this year. well, it‘s normally played in the summer rather than september. andy murray, johanna konta and dan evans all bowed out on day one. it was another sobering experience from murray — who looks a shadow of the player that has won three grand slams. adam wild reports. tennis isn‘t really supposed to feel like this, wrapped up against the biting cold, it was andy murray on his paris return, drawn against stan lourenco, the same opponent who ended his last match ef three years ago. but murray is no longer the player he was, the dogged determination, the iron will remains, the old magic a little more

elusive. like andy murray, stan lourenco‘s best is perhaps behind him, but he still found more than enough stock murray one of two british men frozen out on the opening day. dan evans, british number one, two kei nishikori, but thatis number one, two kei nishikori, but that is where his friends open ends. that left british hopes on the opening day with johanna that left british hopes on the opening day withjohanna konta, taking no chances against the chill she faced, american teenage sensation coco gauff. johanna konta never looked comfortable, and whether it was the temperatures of the 16—year—old buzz mcwilliams, konta joins evans and murray out in the cold. ——16 year old in the cold. lewis hamilton‘s accused formula 1 bosses of trying to stop him, after missing out on equalling the all—time record of grand prix wins. he was given a 10—second penalty at the russian grand prix after performing practice starts

before the race from a spot on the track where he wasn‘t allowed to. he eventually finished third, with teammate valterri bottas taking the win. since the return of the football during the pandemic there has been a major focus on tackling racism in the sport. players, managers, and officials have been telling the bbc about their experiences and what must be done to stamp out discrimination. miriam walker—khan reports. it takes away your innocence, definitely. you are seen as the threat, i guess. i think it definitely. you are seen as the threat, i guess. ithink it angered me more than anything. you have to be thick—skinned, you have to get on with it. people are different, but the problem is the same. racism in football. all i can remember was kicking off, laid the ball to beckham, played it back to lastly, golden, then a boo. red cross, boom, nothing. —— right across. 0ctober 2002, in rattus largo, slovakfans racially abused england‘s black players. he says it was some of the worst abuse of his career. when i

we nt worst abuse of his career. when i went to a black player, it was booed, but when i went to a white player it was nothing. the actual booing was a monkey chance. caskey had a long england careerfrom youth football. as a teenager playing against ireland, he was better and called racial slurs, but never reported it, worried he would be deemed a troublemaker. we had no real voice in that sense of power. to do anything. so people stayed on the pitch, showing my skills in winning games. the number of be ame players has increased, but there have only been nine nonwhite managers was that as a player and manager, chris has felt the effects of racism. these black and ethnic plays in the late 70s and early 80s, they would have gone through a playing career that they would have been subjected to racial comments, racial discrimination act. it‘s impossible for you not to think,

well, you know, do i want is a further career in this gang? and it is not only in the men‘s game. england international anita says she has had to work twice as hard as a black player. we don't want any individual to feel they cannot be 100% themselves. maybe on that particular day in a training session, i am that very competitive person that comes across a little bit more feisty, but because there is an association with being a black woman and having that kind of energy and boldness, it‘s not always seen asa and boldness, it‘s not always seen as a positive thing. i might refrain from being the person. that is what i think is a sad thing. the global protest that followed george floyd‘s death challenged racism around the world, and footballers have played their part. the new generation are pushing for change, among them, watford‘s andre grey. pushing for change, among them, watford's andre grey. if players keep speaking up and being very vocal about it, you will always be

in their minds and what does get caught or what does do it, then the repercussions will be stronger than they have been before. the problem remains, but by using their voices now, they hope the conversation will one day be over. miriam walker—khan, bbc news. some really powerful stories there from miriam walker—khan. more coming on bbc sport throughout the week. thank you very much, sally, we will be hearing from you later. now it‘s time for the weather. and carol‘s in... tell us about your location this morning, it looks glorious. tell us about your location this morning, it looks gloriousm certainly is. i minister the seville garden, which is in surrey. if you are thinking i need to get into the garden and tidy it up, would today be doing? i have the man who can help you. good morning, john anderson, keeper of the gardens here

at this garden. good morning, carol, welcome again. thank you very much. what should we be doing at this time of year to get our garden is ready for the winter and also spring? planning. planning to take things in. as you know, frost is on the way. and if you have things on patios and plants in containers, the first thing i would say you start to think where you're going with them in the house clean them out, check them for pests and diseases, clean them for pests and diseases, clean the pipe, a little bit of burning, even a light liquid feed, just to bob them up. and then when you take them in, put them by yourwindow, it is going to be warmer than it has been outside, think about moving the pot around so it doesn't get all hot on one side of the plan. then outside in the gardens, we are starting to tidy up stop my advice would be don't over cleanjust yet, we're getting some really nice days and lots of birds have been feeding on the seed of whether it be grasses or composites or sunflowers, so that is really important to get some of that food as well.

if you have annuals that are dying, did you throw them away and keep the compost in your planter? if they are beginning to die off now than lift them, shed the soil, put them on compost, the soil if it is in the p0p " compost, the soil if it is in the p0p “ p°t compost, the soil if it is in the pop —— pot i would reuse that. compost, the soil if it is in the pop -- pot i would reuse that. thank you. i planted some bulbs yesterday and this is a good time of year to plant your bulbs. it is a chilly start to the day in stansted, the west midlands, temperatures below freezing. the forecast for this week remains rather cool but by the middle of the week it is going to be u nsettled middle of the week it is going to be unsettled with some heavy rain coming our way unsettled with some heavy rain coming ourway and unsettled with some heavy rain coming our way and then friday into the weekend, looking like there is the weekend, looking like there is the potential for some stormy conditions, deep area of low pressure is coming our way. on the pressure is coming our way. on the pressure chart you can see that we have two fronts, the first one is already bringing us some rain into western areas across northern ireland and also western scotland at a ridge of high pressure is also

trying to build in so that will settle things down. where we have the clear skies of course is where we have the lowest temperatures and a bit more cloud and eastern areas this morning but behind it, we have those temperatures below freezing is where we have the sunshine. the cloud in the east will slowly continue to drift eastwards through the course of the day. it will allow more sunshine to develop and the cloud and the rain in the west in northern ireland, western scotland getting into wealth and the south—west will continue to push east with the cloud building ahead of it before the rain arrives and then behind it for northern ireland, western scotland we will see a return to some sunshine. temperature today ranging from 12 in the north today ranging from 12 in the north to 19 as we pulled down towards the london area. through this evening and overnight, our band of cloud and rain continues to move east but as a weakening feature by so it will bring in some patchy light rain by now, getting into eastern england, eastern scotland and parts of the south—east. behind it, clearskies

south—east. behind it, clearskies so it will be a cool night, widely between five and eight. 11 in plymouth, 13 in london, so a bit mild here. tomorrow we start off with the cloud and some drizzly bits and pieces in some eastern areas, it eventually moves away, and many of us, a dry day with sunny spells. still one or two showers across north—western scotland into northern ireland. you may catch the odd rogue one in england and wales but that will be it. again, temperatures up to the high teens at best. for wednesday, quite a different story with some heavy and persistent rain streaming in from the west, pushing eastwards through the course of the day and then turning unsettled. dan and lou. thank you carol. look at those blooms! it looks gorgeous. back with carol later. the prime minister vowed it would be "world—beating" when it launched but a bbc panorama investigation has found a catalogue of concerns from whistle—blowers inside the nhs test and trace system. 0ne says she spoke to just one

positive case in four months. the government says 500,000 people have been contacted. lauren moss reports. today has been a total and utter waste of time. i have been able unable to login for the entire shift. alex is one of thousands of coronavirus traces hired to work for the nhs test and trace system in england. she used to be employed by the bbc before changing careers to become a healthcare professional but was unable to work during the pandemic. in the four months since test and trace went live, alex spoke to only one person with coronavirus. my to only one person with coronavirus. my grey hairs that are totally —— turning up now i‘ve been trying to deal with this system. test trace was launched at the end of may with high expectations it would be a key component in the battle against the pandemic. we will have a test track and trace operation that will be world—beating. and trace operation that will be world-beating. traces like alexander tasked with contacting people who have tested positive for the virus

to ask them to self—isolate and provide the details of people they have been in close contact with. sta rt have been in close contact with. start raising. alex said it fell short of what she expected. start raising. alex said it fell short of what she expectedlj start raising. alex said it fell short of what she expected. i feel quite ashamed to tell people that this is what i have been working on, you know, how do i say to people i have worked on this for four months andi have worked on this for four months and i have spoken to one person in that time. i expected to be busy all the time. but instead i was sat in my bedroom i was sat in my living room literally like a robot, pressing a button, hoping a case was going to pop up. it is demoralising. latest figures show that just under one in five people who have tested positive still and not being reached. if you test positive... the government has now set aside $12 billion for testing trace, an estimated £1 billion have been spent by the end ofjuly and there are questions about how it is being used. the substantial sums of money going out the door and we don‘t know exactly what it is achieving and they should never shy away from being open about our taxpayer money is being spent because in the end we will all have to pay this back. the department of health says:

more information on how funding is spent will be published next summer. is it what i thought it would be? no. is it what i would hope it would be? no. alex has now left test and trace but we thousands of new coronavirus cases every day, the system will likely be more important than ever that we head into what is expected to be a difficult winter. lauren moss, bbc news. well, today nhs providers, the group which represents hospital trusts in england has set out what it thinks needs to be done to make sure the test and trace system is fit for the winter. let‘s speak its chief executive, chris hopson. thank you very much indeed for joining us. as it stands, is it

sufficient? well, no, it is not. it is on sufficient? well, no, it is not. it isona sufficient? well, no, it is not. it is on a journey and i think the most important thing to remember louise‘s that we all need to work. this service has now become as important ina service has now become as important in a sense as catching criminals, fighting fires and treating heart attacks. it is a key public service and if it does not work then we all suffer and i think it is important to remember we all have a role to play in making this service work so if you have got symptoms, you need to get a test quickly. if the test turns positive you have to self—isolate quickly. you have then to pass your contacts on protest and trace and if they contact you, you have to self—isolate yourself. what iam have to self—isolate yourself. what i am saying is this needs to work but no, it isn‘t where it needs to be at the moment and again as dan has said, if you look forward to the winter, there is a huge task that nhs test and trace has two ensure that it nhs test and trace has two ensure thatitis nhs test and trace has two ensure that it is ready for winter because we are going to need probably four times as many tests as we have currently got, we‘re going to need

to build testing facilities much closer to where people live and work, and there is a whole load of different things that testing trace is going to need to do because demand will go up overwinter. is going to need to do because demand will go up over winter. and we will speak to the government later but they have said they want to provide 500,000 test day by the end of october is what they have said. you say that you have 12 points so what is the most immediate thing that needs to be done? well, so the most immediate thing, we know we have problems over the last two, three, four weeks where effectively, people who have wanted to have a test ca n not people who have wanted to have a test cannot get one so that needs to be sorted out really quickly but if i pull be sorted out really quickly but if ipullup be sorted out really quickly but if i pull up three orfour of be sorted out really quickly but if i pull up three or four of the key 12 points that we make, the first is we have to expand capacity very quickly. you talked about 500,000 by the end of october, you‘re probably talking about 1 million the end of october, you‘re probably talking about1 million test day by the end of december. as i am saying, we absolutely need to ensure that people can get easy access to test so it basically requires the nhs test and trace to build testing facilities closer to where people

live and work. test turnaround times are absolutely key. if, to be frank, you cannot get your test result within 24 hours then given that we know that people can have this virus, don‘t know they have it, be walking around in for people, it is really important the test come back within 24 hours and again, the percentage currently coming back within 24 hours is far too low. the fourth but i probably would stress is the need to ensure that all of those points of end to end contact tracing that i was saying in terms of getting people into the system, contacting them if they have a positive test, adding the contacts from them and getting their contacts to self—isolate, it one of those stages in the process again, they are not working as effectively as they should do. crosstalk. i want to ask you about nhs staff because last time we taught, there were hospitals being affected because their staff could not get tests, get the tests turned around quick enough so what is the situation at the moment? well, it is getting better but we

still have a few isolated incidents of people saying that they cannot get a ccess of people saying that they cannot get access to test. what i was going to say louise is i think we do need, if you don‘t mind me saying, we need to have a little bit of sympathy and understanding for trying to complete —— create this service completely from scratch at the end of may and we did not really have anything like this kind of service before, unlike other countries like in taiwan and south korea, so, and, you know, we have to build a service that covers 60 million people really very fast soi 60 million people really very fast so i think we should have a bit of patience, i think a bit but to be frank is really frustrating us enormously if if you run a public service and you have an operational problem, you have to be open about it, you have to explain what is going on, you have to explain how you‘re going to deal with it and you should give regular progress updates and what we found frustrating is the fa ct and what we found frustrating is the fact that the government, we have had to drag out of the government little bit by little bit the fact that there has been a problem over the last few weeks and to be frank they have been knowingly open enough about the fact that you know what

they are trying to do to solve it and how long it will take to sort. so really clearly, nhs test and trace needs to get the kind of service that we all need at the government also needs to be honest about the point when if there is going to be too much demand for too little capacity, the government needs to be open and honest about that and explain what it is going to do to deal with it. chris, appreciate your time as ever, thank you for speaking to us on breakfast. you can watch panorama test and trace exposed which is on tonight, bbc one, 7:30pm. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. headlines in a few minutes. good morning from bbc london. i‘m alpa patel. the ride—hailing company uber will find out today if it‘s won its licence back to operate in london. it went to court after transport for london refused to renew it on safety grounds, although it‘s been allowed to keep operating during the appeal process.

the suspect in the murder of police officer sergeant matt rata na has been named. louis de zoysa — a 23—year—old from norbury, is currently critically ill in hospital. tributes were paid over the weekend to the new zealander by friends and team—mates at east grinstead rugby club. prince charles leads tributes to police officers killed on duty on national police memorial day. but they are questioning another man who was arrested in norwich over the weekend on suspicion of supplying a gun. sergeant matt ratana was working in the croydon custody centre when he was shot on friday morning. tributes have continued to be paid to him, including from friends and collea g u es to him, including from friends and colleagues at his rugby club. deeply saddening, really. he‘s an absolute mentor and off the pitch, in and out of the custody suite. you can count on him for anything you need and, you know, any question was never too much for him, any support was never too much for him. he was an absolute star and we should always remember the bravery and the courage that he put on the line. residents of hackney are being urged to get their free flu jab this year. it comes as data shows the area has seen one of the largest drops in vaccinations among at—risk

under—65s in england. there are concerns over the health system‘s ability to handle flu season at the same time as a second wave of coronavirus. the number of first—time buyers in the uk has fallen for the first time in five years — that‘s according to research by zoopla — and demand from first—time buyers is weakest in the capital. it‘s thought the economic fallout of covid—19 and reduced availability of mortgages for those on lower incomes has impacted demand. let‘s take a look at the travel situation now. 0n the tube, the 0verground has no service between wandsworth road and clapham junction. clear across all other lines. 0n the roads, it‘s busy around vauxhall because of the closure of vauxhall bridge. now the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. well, compared to the weekend, it is certainly a less windy start to the week. it is quite mild, though, and we start the day with quite a bit of cloud and the cloud. now, this cloud this

morning is a cold front. it‘s moving away eastwards, so gradually, we‘ll start to see more sunshine — especially through this afternoon — and like i said, the wind a lot lighter than the weekend. temperatures today feeling quite warm, actually. with those sunny spells, we‘re looking at a maximum later of 19. now, you‘ll notice this cloud coming in towards the west, towards the end of the afternoon into the evening. that‘s also a cold front. you might get a little bit of light, patchy rain overnight. the minimum temperature still mild, between 10—13. once again, that cold front will move away through the course of tuesday and we will see some sunshine behind it so tomorrow afternoon, sunshine, a bit of patchy cloud around, and temperatures similar. we‘re looking at a maximum tomorrow of 18 or 19. wednesday, though, our next area of low pressure brings some sometimes wet and windy conditions, really, for the rest of this week. i‘m back in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. now though it‘s back to dan and louise

good morning. welcome to breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. 0ur headlines today: self—isolate or face a £1,000 fine. new laws come into effect in england today for anyone testing positive for coronavirus. three more areas of wales are going into local lockdown, meaning nearly two—thirds of the country will be living under tighter restrictions. the earth under threat —

a world exclusive with sir david attenborough, who tells us about his fears for the planet, and how we can all do our bit to help. don‘t waste. don‘t waste anything. don‘t waste electricity. don‘t waste food. premier league fury over the handball rule. the newcastle boss steve bruce says football has "lost the plot" after his own side benefit against spurs. good morning from surrey, where it isa good morning from surrey, where it is a beautiful but chilly start to the day. we are likely to see some sunshine at some stage when we lose the cloud in the east and the rain from the west starts to continue its journey moving eastwards. i‘ll have all of the details in 12 minutes. good morning.

it‘s monday, september 28. our top story. new laws come into force in england this morning, which mean that anyone who tests positive for coronavirus, or has been told they have been in contact with someone who has, now has a legal duty to stay at home, or face a fine. the government says that the police will check—up on those who fail to comply by acting on "local intelligence". let‘s ta ke let‘s take you through some of the details. under the new laws — anyone required to self—isolate but failing to do so will be fined £1,000, and there will be a maximum fine of £10,000 for repeat offenders. the government hopes the measures will significantly reduce the spread of the virus. people on low incomes who can‘t work, and are losing income while self—isolating, will be eligible for a £500 payment. it comes as three more counties in wales have extra restrictions imposed later — meaning nearly two thirds of the country‘s population will be under lockdown, as tomos morgan reports. from today, people across england will be required by law

to self—isolate if they test positive or are contacted by nhs test and trace. there are also further restrictions on the number of wedding guests allowed — only 15 people will be able to attend a marriage ceremony for the foreseeable. across the border in wales, though, the number of wedding guests remains at 30 — for now — but further measures come into force here in other aspects of life. cardiff has become the first uk nation capital to go back under lockdown measures. residents in swansea will also have extra measures placed upon them, extended households or ‘bubbles‘ will be stopped, meaning mixing with people from other households indoors will have to end for now, but up to 30 can meet outside at a social distance. nobody will be able to leave the two city areas without a valid reason, such as going to a place of work where working from home isn‘t possible, going to school or for caring responsibilities. the first minister, mark drakeford, has also said that another three local authorities will be placed under local lockdown measures from this evening. figures have continued

to deteriorate in those three areas over the weekend. we signalled on friday that we were keeping them under very close scrutiny. and the advice we have had is that now is the moment we need to act and local restrictions will apply in those three areas: torfaen, the vale of glamorgan and neath port talbot county borough councils. from this evening, 1.8 million people, more than half of the population of wales will be living under local lockdown restrictions. and with cases continuing to rise across the country, the prospect of another wales—wide lockdown becomes more of a realistic possibility. tomos morgan, bbc news, cardiff. 0ur correspondent tomos morgan can speak to us now from cardiff bay. good morning to you. you are in an area of the good lockdown yesterday. we saw that in the report. many parts of wales will be doing the same later today? we have now got a block in south—central wales which is really kind of the economic hub, and kinda

the main hub for the population of wales, really. by this evening, as we sat in the report there there are three local authorities that will be under strict local lockdown restrictions. almost 2 million people, almost two—thirds of the country, really. the welsh government have been in discussions for the last week and a half on whether or not to put the whole of south wales into lockdown measures. they have gone with the local authority approach because they say thatis authority approach because they say that is the better approach to contain the virus. when you added up having was pockets of local authorities such as cardiff, the city, being surrounded by the local authorities which were in local lockdown, now we have this block because the rates were rising in those other areas. the welsh government have always said one of the main reasons all the main reason for the virus rating in wales was people mixing from different households inside stop that has now come to an end for everybody to mix inside in those local authority areas and nobody, as we said, can

travel in or out without a valid reason. tomos morgan, with the latest from cardiff bay this morning. the fines in england are being introduced as borisjohnson comes under intense pressure from conservative backbenchers to give parliament a say on any new restrictions. 0ur political correspondent iain watson is in westminster this morning with the latest. first of all there will be a debate on coronavirus restrictions on the government‘s response to the coronavirus crisis. 0n government‘s response to the coronavirus crisis. on wednesday, a crucial date, because it is then on wednesday the government has to renew the emergency powers given backin renew the emergency powers given back in march. there is an attempt by sirgraham back in march. there is an attempt by sir graham brady, a prominent backbench conservative mp, representing a lot of government ministers in the conservative benches, he had many of his collea g u es benches, he had many of his colleagues are trying to make some important changes so that mps have greater scrutiny over what the government is doing, and they would have a say, they would have a vote on whether or not to impose any

further national measures, either across england or across the whole of the uk. now, there is a convocation here of course because the speaker vows a commons has to decide —— because the speaker of the has to decide whether he would allow graham brady. it is undeniable a whole range of conservative mps are worried about giving ministers carte blanche to introduce emergency restrictions without greater scrutiny, and if that attempt is, it does, go ahead on wednesday, it is likely to get the support of labour, the liberal democrats, and there is a possibility the government could be defeated. iain, thank you very much, thank you. after crowds of people were pictured gathering in city centres and piling onto public transport over the weekend, the government is under growing pressure to review the 10pm curfew on pubs, bars and restaurants.

these pictures were taken in liverpool and london on friday and saturday night. concerns have been raised that the restriction encourages customers to all leave at once and to carry on drinking together at each other‘s homes. we were showing you london there as well. but yesterday, the culture secretary 0liver dowden insisted that there was "science" behind the decision. we will be talking to helen whately, became minister about that in about 20 minutes. donald trump has hit back at a newspaper report claiming he paid just $750 — about £590 — in income tax in the year he became president. the new york times also says he paid no income tax in 10 of the past 15 years. he is the first president since the 1970s not to make his tax returns public, though this is not required by law. at a press conference mr trump dismissed the report as "fake news".

it‘s fake news. it‘s totally fake news, made—up, fake. we went through the same stories — you could‘ve asked me the same questions — four years ago i had to litigate this and talk about it. uh, totally fake news, no. sir david attenborough has revealed he spent much of lockdown sitting in his garden and "listening to birds." you have been talking to him? he has been speaking to us exclusively on the first. ——on breakfast. he discussed his fears for the planet — his hopes for the future — and joining instagram. it‘s ahead of the release of a book and documentary both titled "a life on our planet". he told us he worried about others during lockdown, and realised he‘d been more fortunate than most. i can't plead about time. i've been of when i was newly married, with a couple of kids in a flat with just two rooms and no garden and thinking what it would be like at the thought of the oncoming autumn and winter that was going to be ahead of us,

having already been locked away for six months. that seems to me a pretty tough number. i know it is inevitable. i know it has to happen. and many people are having a much worse time than i am. i am lucky. i have a garden. i have a house. and we are surviving, my daughter and i are surviving very well. but it is going to be very, very rough for a lot of people. that was sir david attenborough talking to me. i went to chester zoo to do the interview. we were talking about the monsoon forests. the book and documentary goes out, we were talking about what is the state of the planet? he sees the planet is in peril. what was interesting was his ideas about what can be done. his real sense of optimism that right now we sort of have a choice, and if we make the right choices that he suggests, then perhaps we can change

the way the planet is going. that key m essa g es the way the planet is going. that key messages seems to be don‘t waste. don't waste electricity or food. i pressed him on that. what is the one significant thing about all of us can do to make a difference. it is simple for him. don‘t waste. if you would like to hear the full interview louise did with sir david attenborough at chester zoo will be on later. now it is time to go to carol. carol is in windsor with beautiful flowers. good carol. carol is in windsor with beautifulflowers. good morning. good morning, everyone! yes, iam in surrey, at the southern garden. very vibrant, they will be coming in for the winter, actually, and you can see the grass is here, and back here, the green, they will stay out and they can out the back. lovely and they can out the back. lovely and vibrant red. the colours start

at purple and all along this bed they go to read, eventually getting to orange. it is of christine lee planted, and it does look fabulous, i must say. a chilly start of the day and for most of us this week it is going to be rather cool. that is the forecast for the rest of the week. by the time we get to the middle of the week we do get some heavy rain coming our way, and then by the end of the week there is the potential for some stormy conditions. thejury is potential for some stormy conditions. the jury is still out on exactly where and what timing, but we will keep you posted as we go through the week, of course. today we have cloud in eastern areas that will melt away, a lot of sunshine for many of us but a weather front will bring us some rain in across western areas of the uk. behind that as it clears we will see a return to sunshine. 12 in the north and 19 in the south. rain turning late and patchy. a lot

of clear skies around and cool in the note, 5— eight in the north and around 13. it brightens up in the morning and there is a lot of sunshine. there will still be some showers around, so is particularly so across parts of northern ireland and also western scotland. we could catch one or two rogue ones in england and wales, but they will be the exception rather than the rule. temperatures tomorrow not too dissimilar to today, at best we are looking at those climbing up into the mid— high teens. so that is how it is looking. i‘ll have more later, dan and louise. i know carol has gloves on, it is a bit chilly out there. we always we had gardens that look like that. i think so. so, running out of food and staying indoors, a ban on partying. it‘s not the university experience any student would have asked for.

but, for thousands around the country, it‘s their reality. after coronavirus outbreaks at several universities, there are calls for all teaching to be moved online, and some tuition and accommodation costs to be refunded. let‘s look at how the new university year has begun so far. everybody at every of the main entrances has to go through one of these scanners, the heat scanners. green light means go. post to say this will be university as it should be, but, of course, nothing is really as it was before. —— posters say. so we have been in isolation since monday. that is why we decided to e—mail the university asking for essential foods and they sent us these five bags. we don't know any different. we don't know what university life is supposed to be like. do you feel like you have had the best kind of years of your life snatched away? yes, absolutely. i've

like we have come here and it has absolutely gone. it's really hard because, like, seeing our halls, it is really lonely. this is the courtyard we are allowed to walk out in. this is the only outdoor space we have. if they knew this was going to happen, what was the point if they were going to make this all come here, if we were going to do online lessons? we barely have any milk or bread to get we can't do our washing. i'm in, it is a bit pathetic! —— i mean. that is the situation of some students. let‘s speak now to sebastian, who‘s starting his course at the university of nottingham today, and his mum, cherish. good morning to you both. thank you so much forjoining us. i am going to go to you, cherish, first of all. asa mum, to go to you, cherish, first of all. as a mum, dropping him there, what was that like? we don't know what expecting, obviously. it was sort of

straightforward, we went to reception. then they had given us a slot for him to move in between 11-12, slot for him to move in between 11—12, so it took a few minutes for him to check into reception and then we had to lug luggage is in everything into his accommodation. so between 11 and 12 we had to blitz the room, tidy all the kitchen staff, and tidy all his stuff again, because there is another one moving in. it is one of those things that we just in. it is one of those things that wejust had to in. it is one of those things that we just had to moving in. it is one of those things that wejust had to moving quickly. all ina rush wejust had to moving quickly. all in a rush and everything. and, being a nurse, and a mum, obviously had to blitz the room as well and, you know, wipe the walls and everything. so, yes, surreal. sebastian, what is it like from your perspective? anybody who was going to university or who has been university knows it isa or who has been university knows it is a nervous and exciting time. what restrictions are you facing at the moment? what is it like? well, it's

not like a regular first year, really. we've got a common room in the accommodation and they know that a lot of the time they come into split people up and for freshers in their first year they usually host events people socialise, the 10pm curfew you find people finish at the event early and theyjust come back to the flat. so it is a very different experience for me than it would be for most people in the first year. sebastian, what are your worries going forward, how much teaching are you going to get? might there be more restrictions, what are your concerns? with my worry it's not actually that much with the teaching, it is more to do with the socialising, because i feel a have to do socialising, because i feel a have todoa socialising, because i feel a have to do a different version of socialising. so instead of finding people at events, i'm finding a lot less people and it's like when they

go to the gym, do you know what they mean, it's a bit different to meet new people and, you know, there is an inevitable feeling of loneliness that comes in your first year, but i've feel like it is a bit more accentuated without you, just with the exceptional conditions. and with the exceptional conditions. and with the teaching as well, on that front, a lot of people are arguing that, you know, we are paying nine grand to sit on a zoom call or something like that. but, yeah, i knowl to sit on a zoom call or something like that. but, yeah, i know i am not the only one thinking that. like that. but, yeah, i know i am not the only one thinking thatm is interesting that you are understandably concerned about the social side of things, i wonder what your mum thinks of that as well, and that cost... laughter. asi that cost... laughter. as i said last time, the education, we don‘t know what it is like, so we will find out through sebastian. and he mentioned about freshers and i was sort of like, god almighty, are you sure it is even legal they go

out and party, and i‘ve feel a bit better that they are sort of restricted, in a way, because they know he is quite safe, he will be in the flat on time. late last night a texted him are you in your flight, this was at like ten o‘clock and i was surprised he said yes, i am. why am already in bed full dot i had to be home early because it was awake so early for this. laughter. sorry about that, sebastian. there was a party going on next door and i was a party going on next door and i was in my room and i was like... good to see you are abiding by the rules for bbc breakfast. cherish, to come back to you and the cost of things. and it is a question lots of people are talking about and we will ask the government about that in about ten minutes on the programme. the fact that it is over £9,000 and it is not the university experience you would expect to get for that money and a lot of those lectures are not face—to—face, they are online and sebastian and many other

stu d e nts online and sebastian and many other students can actually do that at home. yeah, i've feel like a lot of people say we canjust do home. yeah, i've feel like a lot of people say we can just do this at home, but, personally, if they told me just to stay at home, just do it online, i don't think i'd want to do it, because moving out is part of the experience, isn't it? it is not just going to uni, it is living by yourself, being independent in your own little space. if i didn't have that, living in myspace kind of thing, i think i would defer for the year. they really don't think i'd do uni this year. that is interesting to hear that. i‘m not sure how you feel about that, cherish. it is probably the other way around, really. it is just so nice to see them spread their wings and be independent and everything stop every pa rent independent and everything stop every parent would probably prefer to see them, all the kids, all the

children at home so the —— you can check they are eating all right and washing and that sort of thing. cherish, i think you speak for many mums and dads. it is like training them again, isn‘t it? mums and dads. it is like training them again, isn't it? thank you very much indeed. sebastian, thank you for going to bed early last night for going to bed early last night for us. you don't understand, i've heard people and it was awful! it's all good. it's all good. thank you very much on behalf of our viewers, sebastian. we will pick up on some of those points. professor nishan ca nagarajah is the vice—chancellor at the university of leicester. good morning to you and thank you for joining good morning to you and thank you forjoining us. what is going on at leicester university, have you had many cases? we haven‘t. we have about 1000 students on campus. we have staggered the arrivals are more stu d e nts have staggered the arrivals are more students will be arriving during the week. we had some teacher training stu d e nts week. we had some teacher training students start about three weeks ago and we only had one case and that was dealt with with the public health authorities. and what are you

doing, you are screening, are you, stu d e nts doing, you are screening, are you, students and staff? yes. that is what we‘re planning to do. we‘re starting because, as we know, the young people are non— symptomatic. so we want to reassure our staff and stu d e nts so we want to reassure our staff and students so we are running our own screening programme and we will be able to test on campus and then if anybody has symptoms we can do the testing on campus as well without burning the nhs. this will be on a volu nta ry burning the nhs. this will be on a voluntary basis but we think it is important to reassure the staff and stu d e nts important to reassure the staff and students and, depending on the outcome of the screening, we can relax or increase the restrictions. if you had an outbreak, a few more cases, what restrictions would you be putting on your student? so, at the moment we are putting a lot of effort to provide a blended learning experience for our students. so a lot of the students who have come here need to get some face—to—face teaching as well. and what we are hoping is that we can continue. but

if there is an outbreak we can work with our local public health authority and then we might have to do go, the department has given us clear guidance under which we need to operate and clearly if we are in tier three or tierfour it to operate and clearly if we are in tier three or tier four it only has to be online. and i‘d hope it doesn‘t come to that 0k, have you looked at, we were speaking to the student:, looked at, we were speaking to the student: , sebastian, about looked at, we were speaking to the student:, sebastian, about concerns about finances and paying an enormous amount of money for perhaps not even having face—to—face learning. if it came to that would you refund fees? so at the moment we have put a lot of effort to give the best experience we can and we are living in unprecedented times. so what we have done is make sure the covid secure, make sure we can provide the blend... apologies. that was a bit abrupt. apologies for that. there were a couple of questions i want to asking, but i can‘t. questions i want to asking, but i can't. any chance of getting him

back at all, do you think?” can't. any chance of getting him back at all, do you think? i will ask you one this question if they can, professor. iwanted ask you one this question if they can, professor. i wanted to know what kind of guidance and practical support you have got from the government, is that enough from you? so we have got some guidance from the department for education and that has been very helpful. but i think we need to make sure we get timely advice from the department of education and, especially at the moment what we need to do is to reassure our students. because they have anxiety and any anxiety at the moment will exacerbate the situation. what we want to some clarity, timely information. i think we will work with the government, the department of elista give assurances. clarity on what specifically? at the moment there is a lot of discussion about what happens at christmas, what happens in terms of your and happens at christmas, what happens in terms of your- and i
