making him the 12th serving us president to have met her majesty. hello and welcome to bbc news. there's disappointment for thousands of holidaymakers this afternoon as it's understood that portugal is to be added to the government's amber travel list on tuesday — meaning that going there is legal, but officially advised against — and people must quarantine on their return. and the bbc has been told no new countries will be added to england's green list of destinations that people can travel to without quarantine. there had been speculation that some spanish and greek islands could be added to that list today, as well as malta, finland and parts of the caribbean. but the government says it needs to be cautious.

our political correspondent nick eardley is at westminster for us. good to see you. bring us up to speed with these developments. bad news for speed with these developments. e:c news for travellers, ben. speed with these developments. e5.c news fortravellers, ben. portugal, which had been the main holiday destination where leisure travel was being allowed by the four governments across the uk, is set to be moved on tuesday at 4am from the green list to the amber list, which means that people are being advised not to go unless for essential reasons, and being told they have to quarantine at home when they return. it is a big blow for the travel industry, which had been starting to get some holidays to portugal going again. it is bad news, i suspect, for many of our viewers and travellers who had booked holidays. as i say, this isn't coming into effect until tuesday morning, so there is a bit of time for people in portugal to get back, and the

official announcement from the governments across the uk is expected later this afternoon. but as i say, really terrible news for many people. it comes after a meeting this morning between the four governments across the uk, so, the uk government and the devolved governments as well. they get advice from a group called thejoint bio—security centre, which basically analyses all the data, both domestic and international, and makes those recommendations to the politicians about what should be happening when it comes to the various travel lists. we don't think anyone is going to be added to the green list, so there aren't about to be a whole bunch of countries added for safe travel. the big news is going to be that portugal is being removed from that portugal is being removed from that green list, and at all points, i'm sorry to say, but a really uncertain summer of international travel, looking really precarious.

also, that keyword from the prime minister borisjohnson this week, using that word caution when talking about that road map.— using that word caution when talking about that road map. another example of that? yes, — about that road map. another example of that? yes, i — about that road map. another example of that? yes, | think _ about that road map. another example of that? yes, i think there _ about that road map. another example of that? yes, i think there are - about that road map. another example of that? yes, i think there are two - of that? yes, i think there are two elements of this. there is the international element, the fear of other variants being brought in from other variants being brought in from other parts of the world, potentially variants which can come out of control in the uk, particularly with younger people who haven't had both their vaccine doses. so that is one element of it, and the government has been under huge pressure from opposition parties and from some of the scientists think a bit more about stopping international travel this summer, to protect some of the domestic progress. there is then that question of what happens in three weeks' time on the 21st of june, so—called freedom day, as some have dubbed it, where in england, the last of the legal restrictions on contact between people were set to be lifted. we heard from the prime minister yesterday, not really giving much away. he wants as much

time as possible to analyse the data to see what's going on, but we did see nicola sturgeon earlier this week in scotland putting a little bit of pressure on the brakes when it comes to an easing there, saying that large parts of the central belt of scotland, the capital edinburgh, glasgow as well, that they would not be put down to level one. remember, scotland still has that regional system. so it is a bit of an uncertain time. we willjust add, it is not like this time in september, when we started to see cases rise again and ended up back in lockdown across the uk. the truth is, the vaccine does make a big difference. ministers are increasingly confident of breaking the link between positive cases and hospitalisations and sadly, deaths as well. so we are in a different place, but for people who were hoping that we could get international travel really up and running this summer, the news that portugal is going to be put back on the amber list, and leisure

travellers going to be advised against again, people will be told to quarantine when they return, it is more bad news. thank you very much, nick eardley, our political correspondent at westminster. we can speak now to our business correspondent vishala sri—pathma. as nick was saying, confusing, and certainty that the travel industry? yes, hugely disappointing, particularly for the foreign travel industry, notjust because portugal, a country that is very dependent on uk tourism, it is really important that uk tourists go to the likes of the algarve, for instance, to prop up the algarve, for instance, to prop up those local economies, but also, for the countries that are expecting to perhaps be on that green list. lots of countries, islands, for example, that were mentioned earlier, they were expecting to go and open their doors to british tourists, and this is clearly quite crushing for them. even those in the green list must now be worried, looking at the example of portugal, that has had a brief period in the green list but now gone back to amber. so those

travel firms, the hotel is undergoing this, possibly very worried about the situation? weill. worried about the situation? well, it is a hugely _ worried about the situation? well, it is a hugely uncertain _ worried about the situation? well, it is a hugely uncertain time, - worried about the situation? -ii it is a hugely uncertain time, and a lot of the industry have actually said, had there been a door open in terms of moving to a green list this month or next month, it's actually quite late in the day for the industry to plan and provide that service and put that on for tourists. so it's kind of all a lot of the grey area for them. they don't know how to plan for the future, and with septemberjust around the corner as well, autumn is another quite busy period for, say, the likes of ski slopes, for example. they don't really know what to do and how to plan to go forward. thank you very much. our business correspondent. just a line of breaking news. nick mentioned the vaccination programme a few minutes ago. we are being told from the health agency figures that half of adults in the uk are estimated to have received both doses of the covid—i9 vaccine. you have heard so many health officials talk about the race against the

pandemic and the virus. getting this vaccination out there. so those figures just into us. half of all adults in the uk are estimated to have received both doses of the covid—i9 vaccine. the high court has ruled that the home office broke the law by housing cross—channel migrants in a run—down barracks in folkestone, where around 200 men contracted covid while sleeping in dormitories. six asylum seekers brought the challenge saying the conditions were appalling and squalid, and that putting them there was a breach of their human rights. their victory paves the way for a damages claim against the home secretary, priti patel. dominic casciani has more. a former army base just a mile from the english channel, a temporary home for asylum seekers arriving in dinghies and lorries, this is napier barracks. for months, campaigners have called for its closure. a fire ripped through part of the complex in january and there have been repeated protests by the hundreds of men housed here. now, in a criticaljudgement, the high court has ruled that the home office has breached its own minimum

standards of care. some 200 men contracted covid in the first months of this year. public health england had warned the home office this could happen. today, mrjustice linden ruled that it was inevitable there would be a major outbreak of covid—i9. he said that led to actual bodily harm of the residents and as a result the mental health of the claimants deteriorated. today, men who arrived from the middle east were telling us napier is inhumane. we do not have hot water, internet, electricity. we have just one shower for 100 persons and live in this military base, 100 people. you understand ? if you need food, bad food. and same food, notjust bad. everything, my friends, are bad here. and same food, notjust bad. while the home office says it is disappointed with today's judgment, it has not said whether it will appeal. it has no plans to close

napier in the short term because it is going to use it to hold migrants crossing the channel in dingies during the summer months. the channel in dinghies during the summer months. anybody who is familiar with the conditions at the barracks will know that human beings should not be kept in conditions like that, much less people who are recovering from the trauma of conflict or persecution and even more so in a pandemic. officials insist that conditions in the barracks have massively improved but charities say today's ruling means home secretary priti patel cannot be trusted with the health and safety of the migrants. joining me now isjon featonby, who is the refugee and aslyum policy manager at the british red cross. good afternoon. thank you for joining us. your initial thoughts to today's ruling? this joining us. your initial thoughts to today's ruling?— joining us. your initial thoughts to today's ruling? this is an important and very welcome _ today's ruling? this is an important and very welcome judgment - today's ruling? this is an important and very welcome judgment from l today's ruling? this is an important l and very welcome judgment from the court today, and it echoes a lot of

the evidence and experience of organisations like the british red cross, who have worked with and supported people accommodated in both the napier barracks, but also the barracks in south wales. from what we have worked with, we hear that people struggle to access basic health care, to have their other needs met, and frankly, peoplejust don't feel safe. what is vital now is what happens next, because we believe it is clear that military baric such as those like napier and suitable for those who have come to the uk seeking asylum —— r and suitable. the home office should now act quickly to shut down those barracks and make sure that people can be accommodated in communities where they feel safe and secure while waiting for a decision on their asylum claim. it while waiting for a decision on their asylum claim.— while waiting for a decision on their asylum claim. it begs the question. _ their asylum claim. it begs the question, what _ their asylum claim. it begs the question, what are _ their asylum claim. it begs the question, what are the - their asylum claim. it begs the i question, what are the conditions asylum seekers should expect here in the uk, just how quickly could they be found? ~ ., ~' the uk, just how quickly could they be found? ~ ., ~ , .,, be found? well, we work with people in the asylum — be found? well, we work with people in the asylum system _ be found? well, we work with people in the asylum system all— be found? well, we work with people in the asylum system all over - be found? well, we work with people in the asylum system all over the - in the asylum system all over the uk, and when we to people who have

experience of the system, where people feel safest and vitally, where people are able to engage best with the asylum decision, and they can process, is when people are accommodated in decent standards of accommodation that i think most people would expect, and within communities, so their support networks are there. we see communities across the uk willing to welcome people where that accommodation is available, and the numbers of people now accommodated in napier are vastly significant, so that those 300 people there are moved out as soon as possible. it is not that many compared to the number of people in the asylum system anyway, but even at the moment, the uk's asylum applications are much lower than previously, so we believe that urgent steps could be taken and should be taken, and it is part of a longer—term reform of the asylum system, to make sure that it is efficient and humane. the home office needs to take steps to be working with communities to make sure that accommodation is provided while people are waiting for decisions.—

while people are waiting for decisions. ., decisions. you said there, where it is available- _ decisions. you said there, where it is available. are _ decisions. you said there, where it is available. are those _ decisions. you said there, where it| is available. are those communities you mentioned available, and is this a quick fix? we you mentioned available, and is this a tuickfix? ~ . ., , you mentioned available, and is this a quick fix?— a quick fix? we certainly believe so. we a quick fix? we certainly believe s0- we were. — a quick fix? we certainly believe so. we were, as _ a quick fix? we certainly believe so. we were, as i _ a quick fix? we certainly believe so. we were, as i said _ a quick fix? we certainly believe so. we were, as i said across i a quick fix? we certainly believe| so. we were, as i said across the uk, and we already see that welcome. but i think one of the other important steps, that should be taken by the home office now as well, is that in recent years, we had seen a huge increase in the length of time of people waiting for their decisions. more than half of those people who have been waiting for a decision have now waited longer than a year, and obviously, that leaves people in limbo, reliant on the home office for their accommodation is unable to work to support themselves. part of this vital next steps should be just vitally with making sure those vital decisions are made as quickly as possible, thus making sure people are in that accommodation for the shortest possible time and are then able to get on and rebuild their lives. . ~ able to get on and rebuild their lives. ., ~' , ., able to get on and rebuild their lives. ., ~ , ., ., ., able to get on and rebuild their lives. ., ~' , ., ., ., , able to get on and rebuild their lives. ., ~ i. ., ., , , lives. thank you for “oining us this a firearms officer has told an inquestjury he feared he would die as he tackled the fishmongers' hall killer usman khan. the officer, identified only as ws5,

said when he saw khan's fake suicide belt, he thought he wouldn't go home that night. daniel sandford is at the inquest. in the inquest into the death of usman khan, the fishmongers' hall attacker who had just killed two people, we have today heard from the three firearms officers who were first on the scene. they arrived in a police car from very, very close by and got to london bridge while a group of men were still holding usman khan to the ground trying to get the knives off him. first we heard from an officer known as ws5 — we're not giving his real name to preserve his identity on the order of the coroner. he describes going into the melee of people on the bridge and then suddenly, in the middle of trying to get people off usman khan, realising that he had what he said looked like a viable improvised explosive device around his belt and ws5 told the jury, "if i'm honest i didn't think i was going home." he describes trying to pull off

the last member of the public that was tackling khan before his colleagues then took over. we then heard from yx16, who was in the same car when he arrived. he also got involved in the fight with usman khan and decided that he needed to be incapacitated. he didn't see this fake suicide belt that usman khan was wearing and so when the last person was pulled off usman khan hejust opens fire with his taser in an attempt to incapacitate him so that they could get a better control of the situation. in fact, in the whole course of the afternoon's events, the officer yx16 never opened fire. thirdly we heard from the officer yx19, and he described going into the fight and usman khan looking up at him and saying, "i've got a bomb", at which point he decides that he will have to shoot him. he pulls away and waits for the last person to be pulled off usman khan and then he opens fire two times.

about eight minutes later, usman khan sits up and then the first man we heard from, ws5, also opens fire ten times. thank you for watching. it has just gone quarter past two. the headlines on bbc news... disappointment for holidaymakers as portugal is removed from the green list of places travellers can go without quarantine. six asylum seekers formerly housed at napier barracks in kent have won a legal challenge against the government after a high courtjudge found their accommodation failed to meet a "minimum standard". ministers are facing a rebellion that could force them to reverse their cuts to the overseas aid budget. let's stay with that story. the former prime minister, theresa may, and more than a dozen other senior conservative mps have joined a rebellion against cuts

to the uk's foreign aid budget. rebel tories believe they have enough support to win a vote next monday that would force ministers to increase aid spending next year. this from our diplomatic correspondent james landale. for years, britain has been a world leader in delivering humanitarian and development aid around the world. but this year, the government has made cuts, saying it has to repair the public finances hit by the pandemic. now, a growing number of conservative mps, including the former prime minister theresa may, are fighting back. some 30 tory mps are backing plans to force the government to start spending more on aid next year. they say the cuts have had a devastating impact on the lives of some of the world's most vulnerable people. we are talking about famine relief globally, we are talking about access to clean water in a pandemic so that people can wash. we are talking about access to girls' education which the prime minister made a huge commitment to, describing it as the swiss army knife that solved a myriad of problems and challenges

and we are talking about women's rights to access to contraception which prevents them from having unwanted pregnancies. the government cut aid spending this year by about £4 billion. it did that by cutting its target to spend just 0.5% of national income on aid. the rebel amendment would reinstate the original target of 0.7% next year. the rebels say they are confident of finding the 45 tory mps needed to win the crunch vote on monday. but ministers are looking at ways of heading off defeat and insist the uk's aid budget remains generous, about £10 billion despite the cuts. the biggest contribution that we can make to ending this pandemic globally is the fact that we put the investment in here in oxford to develop the oxford astrazeneca vaccine and now, with astrazeneca, we make it available at cost to the whole world and that doesn't take aid, that takes british science.

win or lose, the government will now be in the tricky position of having to defend its international aid cuts in the same week it's hosting the g7 summit in cornwall. one of the rebels is the conservative mp for west worcestershire, harriett baldwin — shejoins me now. good afternoon to you. let's start with why. why are you trying to reverse these cuts now? irate with why. why are you trying to reverse these cuts now? we are not rebellin: , reverse these cuts now? we are not rebelling. we — reverse these cuts now? we are not rebelling, we are _ reverse these cuts now? we are not rebelling, we are simply _ reverse these cuts now? we are not rebelling, we are simply endorsing. rebelling, we are simply endorsing what is already the law of the land, so the 0.7 is set in statute, and we are challenging the government to a vote on that. we think if the government wants to make that change 20.5, it needs to show that it can get it through parliament, because at the general election in 2019, every single member of parliament stood on a pledge to maintain that no .7%, which is enshrined in law. as you heard earlier in your package, it is a really important

time to try to end this global pandemic. the uk has been fortunate to have a fantastic vaccination programme. we ought to be more generous and give some of that vaccine to the very poor countries that aren't able to afford it, and it would bring the pandemic to a close sooner.— it would bring the pandemic to a close sooner. two lots of people watchin: close sooner. two lots of people watching this, _ close sooner. two lots of people watching this, it _ close sooner. two lots of people watching this, it sounds - close sooner. two lots of people watching this, it sounds and - close sooner. two lots of people | watching this, it sounds and looks like a rebellion. i watching this, it sounds and looks like a rebellion.— like a rebellion. i think what you have not like a rebellion. i think what you have got to _ like a rebellion. i think what you have got to make _ like a rebellion. i think what you have got to make clear - like a rebellion. i think what you have got to make clear is - like a rebellion. i think what you have got to make clear is that, i like a rebellion. i think what you | have got to make clear is that, in fact, the law of the land, as it stands, says that we ought to be spending 0.7. the government made the announcement to reduce it to 0.5 backin the announcement to reduce it to 0.5 back in november, but there has not been a vote in parliament, so the no .7 is still on the statute books. what we are challenging the government about is, well, show us that you have got the numbers to put that you have got the numbers to put that through, because actually, we think the will of parliament is not in favour of doing this at a time when we are in the middle of a global pandemic and we really need to do what we can to help with the sanitation, hygiene, illnesses around the world. we have seen how interlinked we are. this is not the

time to be cutting back. of course, when the economy shrinks, the 0.7 shrinks as a number, but don't let's go even further and cut it to 0.5. you mentioned the pandemic. some will say far more important things going on here, let's concentrate on that first? . , , ., that first? incredibly important, and i that first? incredibly important, and i think— that first? incredibly important, and i think the _ that first? incredibly important, and i think the government - that first? incredibly important, and i think the government has| that first? incredibly important, - and i think the government has done and i think the government has done an amazing job and i think the government has done an amazingjob in and i think the government has done an amazing job in terms of providing economic support and also in the vaccination programme. but we have been very fortunate with having more vaccinations than we need, and apparently one of the things constraining our ability to give more of that surplus vaccine to countries that are really struggling has been the fact that we would go over this 0.5 which is been arbitrarily imposed, and the will of parliament has not been tested and reducing it to 0.5, so we are challenging the government on monday to see if they have got the numbers. we think that the 0.7 which is on the statute books is correct. can i finallyjust — the statute books is correct. can i finallyjust ask — the statute books is correct. can i finally just ask you _ the statute books is correct. can i finally just ask you where - the statute books is correct. can i finallyjust ask you where you think this leaves the conservative party?

from the outside looking in, it looks like more infighting. i think it is highlighting _ looks like more infighting. i think it is highlighting the _ looks like more infighting. i think it is highlighting the fact - looks like more infighting. i think it is highlighting the fact that - looks like more infighting. i think it is highlighting the fact that we | it is highlighting the fact that we have done an amazing job in this country in terms of the vaccination roll—out, and that there are many of us who want to be very generous with that surplus vaccine, make sure we are able to give it some more countries. i certainly hope that's the kind of announcement we will see at the g7, and we all want to be part of global britain, we all want to show the good we can see in the world —— the good we can do in the world, on the world stage. that's very much the brand of the party, and this helps us do that. conservative mp harriett baldwin, thanks forjoining us.— opposition parties in israel have agreed to join forces and form a new coalition government involving eight parties, in a deal which would end benjamin netanyahu's time in power. under the agreement, the head of the right—wing yamina party, naftali bennett, would serve as prime minister first. in august 2023, he would then be replaced by yair lapid, leader of the centrist

yesh atid party. another key player in the plans is the arab islamist raam party leader, mansourabbas, who was also pictured signing the agreement. the deal — which still has to be approved by the israeli parliament — would mean the end of benjamin netanyahu's 12—year tenure as prime minister. if next week's vote in parliament fails, there is a risk israel would have to hold another election, the fifth, in two and a half years. it comes almost two weeks after israel and palestinian militants agreed a ceasefire following an 11—day conflict in which more than 250 people were killed, most in gaza. mark lobel reports. an image of profound change — a right—wing jewish nationalist, a centrist, and unprecedentedly an arab islamist charting israel's way forward. two weeks after the country was on a war footing, political foes warmly pledging to work together on a range of issues. translation: education, welfare, employment, - economic development,

planning and construction, housing shortage and, of course, the eradication of crime and violence. there are many things in this agreement that benefit arab society as well as israeli society as a whole. unveiling the eight party agreement, formerfinance minister yair lapid is to take over as prime minister in two years from the right—wing nationalist naftali bennett — no fan of the two—state solution, and keen on expanding israeli settlements in occupied palestinian lands. not that anyone is mentioning the peace process in all this. the labour party leader wrote it was an historic day, having secured her party a place on an influentialjudicial committee with plenty more horse trading to come. these israelis are ecstatic at the prospect of the country's longest serving prime minister netanyahu being replaced. my fellow protesters and i were in the streets for more than a year,

so it is a great celebration, we are hopeful for this change. the bbc caught up with him. mr netanyahu, is this your last week as prime minister? will this be your last week as prime minister? is that a wish or a question? he can still stop this from becoming a reality by peeling off politicians before a crucial parliamentary vote within days. it is not inconceivable that this government will fall short of the 61 seat majority and you can be assured that netanyahu will do everything possible to sabotage it by trying to work to get defectors. but there is no denying a major shift in israeli politics is now looking likely. benjamin netanyahu has tweeted this morning saying: all right—wing knesset members must

oppose this dangerous left—wing government. thousands of current and former tesco workers have won a legal argument in theirfight for equal pay. the tesco workers, mostly women, argued that they failed to receive equal pay for work of equal value with colleagues in its distribution centres — who are mostly men. now the european court ofjustice has ruled that an eu law can be �*relied on�* in making the equal pay claim. the director general of the bbc has made a personal apology to the whistleblower who raised concerns about martin bashir�*s interview with princess diana. matt wiessler, a graphic designer, alerted his bosses to the fake documents used by martin bashir. the response from the bbc at the time was to stop giving him any work. our media correspondent, david sillito, told us that there was one man who knew about those documents. and that is matt wiessler, and that is because he made them, under the

orders of martin bashir. there was an investigation, and martin per share was declared an honourable man, and matt wiessler never worked for the bbc again. well, he has now received a formal written apology, and today, there was a face—to—face meeting with tim davey, the director—general of the bbc. i asked him why this meant so much to him. because i still felt that to this day, the bbc werejust because i still felt that to this day, the bbc were just saying things to sort of appease me, but i have come away from it feeling, no, they really, really support me, and they feel really, genuinely that they sort of want to... not help me, but, you know, clear up the past and start again, in a sort of friendly relationship. start again, in a sort of friendly relationship-— start again, in a sort of friendly relationshi. .,, , ,, relationship. has this impacted your career? yes- — there might well be, but i am not

involved in that, and tim and i have spoken about that quite openly. it is sort of confidential, but we very much both just want to move on. matthias wiessler there, feeling much happier at the end of this. of course, this isn't the end of the matter. there is another report due out in the next few days looking at why the bbc re—employed martin basheer in 2016. —— martin bashir. a date has been set for the president biden�*s visit to buckingham palace to see the queen. the meeting will take place on the 13th ofjune, after his visit to cornwall for the g7 leaders' conference on climate change. the trip will be president biden�*s first visit abroad since he became president in january. now it's time for a look at the weather with ben. hello. after the high temperatures of the last few days, today is a little bit cooler for many of us. we stick with that slightly cooler feel for the next few days, though it

which left him in intensive care after sustaining multiple career—threatening injuries. that's all the sport for now. i will have more for you in the next hour but for now, back to you, ben. today is the start of the g7 health ministers summit led by the department for health and social care in oxford. the summit will focus on themes of global health security, anti—microbial resistance, digital health clinical trials in the development of vaccines, therapeutics and diagnostics. we can speak now to professor beate kampmann, director of vaccine and london school of hygiene and tropical medicine. good afternoon. what are the key things health ministers need to be prioritising here? it’s things health ministers need to be prioritising here?— things health ministers need to be prioritising here? it's an important meetin: of prioritising here? it's an important meeting of the _ prioritising here? it's an important meeting of the g7 _ prioritising here? it's an important meeting of the g7 health - prioritising here? it's an important| meeting of the g7 health ministers as it gives an opportunity not only to look at lessons learned from the

covid pandemic but to look ahead and sharing vaccines must clearly be very high on the agenda because there is an oversupply of vaccines in the g7 countries while there is a shortage of vaccines in lower and middle income countries and lives are being lost because of this so this must be a priority and then thinking for the sharing of data and is to prepare for next time to be better placed must be another priority. better placed must be another riori . �* ., better placed must be another riori .�* ., ., ., priority. and communication, a more “oined u- priority. and communication, a more joined up approach? _ priority. and communication, a more joined up approach? the _ priority. and communication, a more joined up approach? the g7 - priority. and communication, a more joined up approach? the g7 is - priority. and communication, a more joined up approach? the g7 is only . joined up approach? the g7 is only art of the joined up approach? the g7 is only part of the world _ joined up approach? the g7 is only part of the world and _ joined up approach? the g7 is only part of the world and in _ joined up approach? the g7 is only part of the world and in a - joined up approach? the g7 is only| part of the world and in a pandemic the world by its nature is involved so the g7 group will need to reach out to the g20, to the who, the un, to set up protocols and procedures and possibly even a pandemic treaty or something like that that has been discussed to learn from the lessons that were already learned through

the ebola pandemic and there have been amplified by covid and there are some good experiences and new things that need to be fortified. what have we learned from this current pandemic? i what have we learned from this current pandemic?— what have we learned from this current pandemic? i think what we have learnt — current pandemic? i think what we have learnt is _ current pandemic? i think what we have learnt is that _ current pandemic? i think what we have learnt is that no-one - current pandemic? i think what we have learnt is that no-one is - current pandemic? i think what we have learnt is that no-one is safe l have learnt is that no—one is safe until everyone is safe, but unless we have protected people against death and overwhelming of the health care systems, we will not have done a comprehensivejob and care systems, we will not have done a comprehensive job and we care systems, we will not have done a comprehensivejob and we have obviously learned that we are as a community in that position to develop life—saving vaccines between academia and industry very rapidly and that has been an amazing achievement but it's also important, we have seen the money on the table and up financial support was mobilised quickly and that has helped a lot in the vaccine field. i didn't have to scroll far down your social media to seat you believe the vaccine is the way out of this pandemic. what else would you like

well, let's hear from an athlete who is preparing for those games. karen bennett is a british rower training for the tokyo olympics. she won a silver medal at the rio 2016 games. good afternoon. hi there. have you been training _ good afternoon. hi there. have you been training this _ good afternoon. hi there. have you been training this morning? - good afternoon. hi there. have you been training this morning? i i good afternoon. hi there. have you been training this morning? i have | been training this morning? i have not. we been training this morning? i have not- we will— been training this morning? i have not. we will let _ been training this morning? i have not. we will let you _ been training this morning? i have not. we will let you off. _ been training this morning? i have not. we will let you off. i - been training this morning? i have not. we will let you off. i have i not. we will let you off. i have some bits _ not. we will let you off. i have some bits going _ not. we will let you off. i have some bits going on _ not. we will let you off. i have some bits going on at - not. we will let you off. i have some bits going on at the i not. we will let you off. i have i some bits going on at the moment not. we will let you off. i have - some bits going on at the moment so i haven't done anything today. what i haven't done anything today. what is the feeling _ i haven't done anything today. what is the feeling is _ i haven't done anything today. what is the feeling is an _ i haven't done anything today. what is the feeling is an athlete given what we have heard about japan's fourth wave? it’s what we have heard about japan's fourth wave?— fourth wave? it's weird, it's quite a mixed feeling, _ fourth wave? it's weird, it's quite a mixed feeling, obviously - fourth wave? it's weird, it's quite a mixed feeling, obviously i'm i fourth wave? it's weird, it's quite i a mixed feeling, obviously i'm very excited about going there and hearing that it will go ahead because i think that's such good news after so many months of awful news, it's great and it's exciting and all the athletes are so thrilled that it will go ahead and i think we

need to be able to do it in a really safe manner, i think time will tell but we will definitely go out there as safe as possible so yeah, it's a bit of a mixed bag and nobody can tell what the future will hold so we just have to take it one day at a time and see what happens. hour just have to take it one day at a time and see what happens. how do ou train time and see what happens. how do you train because _ time and see what happens. how do you train because at _ time and see what happens. how do you train because at the _ time and see what happens. how do you train because at the back- time and see what happens. how do you train because at the back of- you train because at the back of your mind and other athletes' mines must be the thought that the games may be called off? i must be the thought that the games may be called off?— may be called off? i think that robabl may be called off? i think that probably is — may be called off? i think that probably is in _ may be called off? i think that probably is in the _ may be called off? i think that probably is in the back - may be called off? i think that probably is in the back of i may be called off? i think that probably is in the back of my l may be called off? i think that i probably is in the back of my head somewhere but as athletes you have to live and breathe your sport and you have to believe that it will go ahead because that's the end goal and what you want to happen, so you put your life on hold, you put your

heart and soul, blood sweat and tears and you need to be able to believe it will go ahead otherwise i don't ink you can fully commit to the paint you put yourself through and all the hard days training so i think we are kind of full steam ahead and just hoping it will go ahead and just hoping it will go ahead as planned. obviously it safely. ahead as planned. obviously it safel . . , ahead as planned. obviously it safel. ., , ., safely. finally commit no international— safely. finally commit no international fans, i safely. finally commit no international fans, may l safely. finally commit no | international fans, may be safely. finally commit no i international fans, may be a japanese fans either. how hard will it be competing behind closed doors? i feel like that is what we train all year round behind closed doors, we do maybe three or four competitions a year and that is in front of the crowds but i don't think that would be a problem for us, we are so focused and well drilled and disciplined with being able to train behind closed doors, the support and the fans and

everyone, it is so sad they will not be able to be the actual experience that with us but everyone is fully on board and safety comes first and we just want to be able to put on a show for the rest of the world and for the people at home that everyone can watch on tv and we know that everyone will be behind us and backing us the whole way, so yeah, it's ok, we can still go out and still do thejob, it's it's ok, we can still go out and still do the job, it's just sad not to share the experience live with those people. to share the experience live with those people-— to share the experience live with those --eole. , . ., , , those people. they certainly will be behind you. — those people. they certainly will be behind you, karen _ those people. they certainly will be behind you, karen bennett, - those people. they certainly will be behind you, karen bennett, thank i those people. they certainly will be i behind you, karen bennett, thank you and good luck. behind you, karen bennett, thank you and good luck-— now on the news channel, it's time for your questions answered. ahead of the changes which are due to be announced later this afternoon, we're answereing your questions on what restrictions mean

and consumer rights. you've been sending in your questions, so to answer them, we can now speak to jane hawkes, a travel author and consumer travel expert and also simon calder, travel editor of the independent newspaper — who is speaking to us from gibralter, which as it stands is on the green list. good afternoon to both of you. let's go to you, simon, lots of questions, let's rattle through as many as we can. wendy in morpeth asked, i permitted to travel to spain to meet a property agent and lawyer to put my holiday home on the market? it’s my holiday home on the market? it's an my holiday home on the market? it�*s an extraordinary question because for the past three and a half weeks it has been legal for people to travel abroad. it has been legal for people to travelabroad. spain it has been legal for people to travel abroad. spain has no problems with anyone coming into spain from the uk, they say you don't need testing or proof of vaccination can just come on in, i'm just looking across at this point now, 500 metres

away. i cannot go over there, if i did i would have two quarantine but there is the idea put around that somehow it's a legal and you need a reason. that was certainly the case up reason. that was certainly the case up to the 17th of may, we were banned for going for anything but essential purposes until that day but since then you can go anywhere. i could go to a red list country, i'm not going to commit the government says it doesn't want us to but if you have reasons to go anywhere, a property issue, someone you love, you can go there as long as the destination will let you in and as long as you are prepared to self—isolate for ten days when you return. self-isolate for ten days when you return. , ., ., , , ., , return. jane, what this illustrates is that confusion _ return. jane, what this illustrates is that confusion around - return. jane, what this illustrates is that confusion around this i return. jane, what this illustrates is that confusion around this for i is that confusion around this for many people. is that confusion around this for many people-— is that confusion around this for many people. is that confusion around this for man --eole. , ,., ., , many people. yes, the confusion does lie around the — many people. yes, the confusion does lie around the fact _ many people. yes, the confusion does lie around the fact that _ many people. yes, the confusion does lie around the fact that people - lie around the fact that people forget — lie around the fact that people forget it's not illegal to travel

amount of time and in terms of the red list, i have been stunned by what the bbc is reporting this afternoon that we will see a reduction in the number of countries on the green list and an increase in countries on the red list because i thought all the movement would be from red to amber, easing restrictions and from amber to green. it's clear that the government, i wait to hear the official announcement, government, i wait to hear the officialannouncement, i government, i wait to hear the official announcement, i have been calling the department for transport every ten minutes for the last couple of hours without a response, once we know it will be clearer what they are doing but at the moment i would have to say i cannot see pakistan coming off the red list for weeks, probably months and i wouldn't want to make any predictions about anywhere else having their restrictions eased in the near future. this having their restrictions eased in the near future.— having their restrictions eased in the near future. this gives me the opportunity _ the near future. this gives me the opportunity to _ the near future. this gives me the opportunity to say _

there are 1367 tourist beds in the place so that is not a summer's travel industry and the very fact that portugal could be, and we don't yet have confirmation, moved straight to the amber list can meaning travel companies presumably will cancel all their departures, airlines will have to ground a lot of flights, there will be massive losses, i have spoken to one or two companies and they say we are seriously considering slowing in the towel, so it will devastate the travel industry and also upset a great number of people hoping for a holiday. we don't know any of the details yet about when the move to amber will take effect, we are surprised that the so—called green watchlist which was supposed to give us a week or two's morning doesn't seem to have been used in this case

your status having being jabbed and you will get suppliers who can provide things on pieces of paper, and i would urge anyone with a smartphone to print everything out you possibly can as well because you don't want your battery to go flat and are more pieces of paper you have to show officials the better. jane, brian endon from them asking, i'm due to travel to portugal in august this year, saying although extremely concerned this would not be the right approach, should i continue to plan the trip or is it likely that the holiday will be cancelled? it’s likely that the holiday will be cancelled?— likely that the holiday will be cancelled? �*, , . ., cancelled? it's difficult to say in this instance, _ cancelled? it's difficult to say in this instance, you _ cancelled? it's difficult to say in this instance, you need - cancelled? it's difficult to say in this instance, you need to i cancelled? it's difficult to say in this instance, you need to just i cancelled? it's difficult to say in i this instance, you need to just make this instance, you need tojust make sure you _ this instance, you need tojust make sure you are — this instance, you need tojust make sure you are aware of the implications of going to your destination so whatever list it is on now. — destination so whatever list it is on now, that could change, hopefully you will— on now, that could change, hopefully you will have a flashing green warning — you will have a flashing green warning for any countries which change — warning for any countries which change lists that you need to be prepared — change lists that you need to be prepared for the worst scenario so

so time for a look at the weather with ben rich. hello there. after a few days of climbing temperatures, today they have dropped back a bit, i could feel and we stick with that in the next few days but it will be mostly dry, not completely dry and through the end of the date we will start to seek a few showers creeping across the southern counties, into western counties of northern ireland later as well. higher temperatures today across eastern parts of england, 25, 26, and quite good in the north—east of scotland. this evening at most places will be fine, one or two showers are likely to affect south—east england, may be north—east england, and between clear spells are still mad and muggy

across eastern areas, 1a the overnight on low for norwich and london and tomorrow we could see more rain across south—eastern parts, loud bringing some patchy rain into northern and the odd showerfor rain into northern and the odd shower for scotland rain into northern and the odd showerfor scotland but rain into northern and the odd shower for scotland but for most it is a largely fine and sunny day but through the afternoon, into the london area some showers are possible, most other spots fine and write with sunshine and these temperatures are around where we would expect them to be at the time of year, always more cloud into northern ireland, the odd shower possible and one or two isolated showers are possible across scotland but most places here fine. the weekend there were frontal systems on the chart but high pressure will stay in charge so that means the weather fronts as they push in ten to be quite weak so we will see some cloud and patchy rain into northern ireland and western scotland through saturday, the odd heavy burst in the afternoon, elsewhere fine with

spells of sunshine and temperatures generally between 18 and possibly 23 degrees down to the south—east. on sunday it looks like a dry date for the majority, remnants of that weather front producing some extra cloud, may be the odd shower in the afternoon but nothing more than that on top temperatures on sunday 23 in london, highs around 18 in glasgow.

this is bbc news. the headlines: disappointment for holidaymakers from england as portugal is removed from the green list of places travellers can go without quarantine. the squalid barracks in kent where hundreds of asylum seekers got covid. a high courtjudge says the government broke the law by putting them there. ministers are facing a rebellion that could force them to reverse their cuts to the overseas aid budget. 50 days till the tokyo olympics — but will they go ahead, and if they do, will there be any crowds to watch? and the queen will meet joe biden next week, making him the 12th serving us president to have met her majesty.

hello and welcome to bbc news. it's understood that portugal is to be added to the government's amber travel list. that means that from next tuesday — while it will be legal to go to portugal, it will be officially advised against, and people must quarantine on their return. and the bbc has been told no new countries will be added to england's green list of destinations which people can travel to without quarantine. there had been speculation that some spanish and greek islands could be added to that list today, as well as malta, finland and parts of the caribbean. but the government says it needs to be cautious. james reynolds has the details. these football fans who made the weekend journey to watch the champions league final in porto may be the last to enjoy easy travel to

portugal for a while. be the last to enjoy easy travel to portugalfor a while. the iberian country's coronavirus infection rate is now rising, and it's understood the uk government may now move portugal from the green to the amber list, which brings with it many more restrictions. 12 countries and territories are currently on the green list. there is no need to quarantine when travellers get home. but most of the world is on the amber list. travel is allowed, but the government advises against it. those returning will have to quarantine at home for ten days. arrivals from red list countries, where infections are highest, most quarantine in a government managed hotel. the government is now assessing this list. we hotel. the government is now assessing this list.— hotel. the government is now assessing this list. we have got to follow the data. _ of course i understand why people want to travel. of course i do. but we have to make sure we keep this country safe, especially because the vaccine programme is going so well. the green list, which includes gibraltar, doesn't give holiday—makers much of a choice. for the travel industry, that's a concern.

what we would like to see is for the ability of people to travel freely. testing is now in place and people are getting used to that. what they probably don't like getting used to is the volatility and i think there will be more subject to change but again more opportunity for people to get to where they want to go to. spain, like most of europe, is on the amber list, but the country's canary islands argue they should be considered separately. we can control the borders and make it much more safe. i think the islands should have a definite relation especially the canary islands have a very strong relationship with the united kingdom and i think we should be treated in a different way. malta is also currently on the amber list. its vaccination rate is high. it hopes to get more tourists to visit but on this occasion the uk government is not expecting to add any more countries to its green list.

this information about the lists hasn't been officially announced, and the government websites haven't yet been updated. our business correspondent vishala sri—pathma said the changes meant many travel and hospitality owners felt unable to properly plan for future business. disappointing, particularly for the foreign travel industry, notjust because portugal, a country that is very dependent on uk tourism, it is really important that uk tourists go to the likes of the algarve, for instance, to prop up those local economies, but also, for the countries that are expecting to perhaps be on that green list. lots of countries, islands, for example, that were mentioned earlier, they were expecting to go and open their doors to british tourists, and this is clearly quite crushing for them. even those on the green list must now be worried, looking at the example of portugal, that's had a brief period in the green list but now gone back to amber, so those

travel firms, the hotel is on the green list, must be very worried about the situation? it is a hugely uncertain time, and a lot of the industry have actually said, had there been a door open in terms of moving to a green list this month or next month, it's actually quite late in the day for the industry to plan and provide that service and put that on for tourists. so it's kind of all a lot of the grey area for them. they don't know how to plan for the future, and with september just around the corner as well, autumn is another quite busy period for, say, the likes of ski slopes, for example. they don't really know what to do and how to plan to go forward. the high court has ruled that the home office broke the law by housing cross—channel migrants in a run—down barracks in folkestone, where around 200 men contracted covid while sleeping in dormitories. six asylum seekers brought the challenge saying the conditions were appalling and squalid, and the home office fell short of its duty of care towards them. their victory paves the way for a damages claim against the home secretary, priti patel. dominic casciani has more.

a former army base just a mile from the english channel, a temporary home for asylum seekers arriving in dinghies and lorries, this is napier barracks. for months, campaigners have called for its closure. a fire ripped through part of the complex in january and there have been repeated protests by the hundreds of men housed here. now, in a criticaljudgement, the high court has ruled that the home office has breached its own minimum standards of care. some 200 men contracted covid in the first months of this year. public health england had warned the home office this could happen. today, mrjustice linden ruled that it was inevitable there would be a major outbreak of covid—19. he said that led to actual bodily harm of the residents and as a result the mental health of the claimants deteriorated. today, men who arrived from the middle east were telling us napier is inhumane. we do not have hot water, internet, electricity. we have just one shower for 100 persons and live in this

military base, 100 people. you understand ? if you need food, bad food. and same food, notjust bad. everything, my friends, are bad here. while the home office says it is disappointed with today's judgment, it has not said whether it will appeal. it has no plans to close napier in the short term because it is going to use it to hold migrants crossing the channel in dinghies during the summer months. anybody who is familiar with the conditions at the barracks will know that human beings should not be kept in conditions like that, much less people who are recovering from the trauma of conflict or persecution and even more so in a pandemic. officials insist that conditions in the barracks have massively improved but charities say today's ruling means home secretary priti patel cannot be trusted with the health and safety of the migrants.

a firearms officer has told an inquestjury he feared he would die as he tackled the fishmongers' hall killer usman khan. the officer, identified only as ws5, said when he saw khan's fake suicide belt, he thought he wouldn't go home that night. daniel sandford is at the inquest: in the inquest into the death of usman khan, the fishmongers' hall attacker who had just killed two people, we have today heard from the three firearms officers who were first on the scene. they arrived in a police car from very, very close by and got to london bridge while a group of men were still holding usman khan to the ground trying to get the knives off him. first we heard from an officer known as ws5 — we're not giving his real name to preserve his identity on the order of the coroner. he describes going into the melee of people on the bridge and then suddenly, in the middle of trying to get people off usman khan, realising that he had what he said looked like a viable improvised explosive device around his belt

and ws5 told the jury, "if i'm honest i didn't think i was going home." he describes trying to pull off the last member of the public that was tackling khan before his colleagues then took over. we then heard from yx16, who was in the same car when he arrived. he also got involved in the fight with usman khan and decided that he needed to be incapacitated. he didn't see this fake suicide belt that usman khan was wearing and so when the last person was pulled off usman khan hejust opens fire with his taser in an attempt to incapacitate him so that they could get a better control of the situation. in fact, in the whole course of the afternoon's events, the officer yx16 never opened fire. thirdly we heard from the officer yx19, and he described going into the fight and usman khan looking up at him and saying, "i've got a bomb", at which point he decides

that he will have to shoot him. he pulls away and waits for the last person to be pulled off usman khan and then he opens fire two times. about eight minutes later, usman khan sits up and then the first man we heard from, ws5, also opens fire ten times. the former prime minister theresa may and more than a dozen other senior conservative mps have joined a rebellion against cuts to the uk's foreign aid budget. rebel tories believe they have enough support to win a vote next monday that would force ministers to increase aid spending next year. this from our diplomatic correspondent james landale. for years, britain has been a world leader in delivering humanitarian and development aid around the world. but this year, the government has made cuts, saying it has to repair the public finances hit by the pandemic. now, a growing number of conservative mps,

including the former prime minister theresa may, are fighting back. some 30 tory mps are backing plans to force the government to start spending more on aid next year. they say the cuts have had a devastating impact on the lives of some of the world's most vulnerable people. we are talking about famine relief globally, we are talking about access to clean water in a pandemic so that people can wash. we are talking about access to girls' education which the prime minister made a huge commitment to, describing it as the swiss army knife that solved a myriad of problems and challenges and we are talking about women's rights to access to contraception which prevents them from having unwanted pregnancies. the government cut aid spending this year by about £4 billion. it did that by cutting its target to spend just 0.5% of national income on aid. the rebel amendment would reinstate the original target of 0.7% next year. the rebels say they are confident of finding the 45 tory mps needed

to win the crunch vote on monday. but ministers are looking at ways of heading off defeat and insist the uk's aid budget remains generous, about £10 billion despite the cuts. the biggest contribution that we can make to ending this pandemic globally is the fact that we put the investment in here in oxford to develop the oxford astrazeneca vaccine and now, with astrazeneca, we make it available at cost to the whole world, and that doesn't take aid, that takes british science. win or lose, the government will now be in the tricky position of having to defend its international aid cuts in the same week it's hosting the g7 summit in cornwall. i asked one of the conservative mps — harriet baldwin the mp for west worcestershire — why she and her colleagues were taking this action.

we are not rebelling, we are simply endorsing what is already the law of the land, so the 0.7 is set in statute, and we are challenging the government to a vote on that. we think if the government wants to make that change to 0.5, it needs to show that it can get show that it can get it through parliament, because at the general election in 2019, every single member of parliament stood on a pledge to maintain that 0.7%, which is enshrined in law. as you heard earlier in your package, it is a really important time to try to end this global pandemic. the uk has been fortunate to have a fantastic vaccination programme. we ought to be more generous and give some of that vaccine to the very poor countries that aren't able to afford it, and it would bring the pandemic to a close sooner. to lots of people watching this, it sounds and looks like a rebellion. i think what you have got to make clear is that, in fact, the law of the land, as it stands, says that we ought to be spending 0.7.

the government made the announcement to reduce it to 0.5 back in november, but there has not been a vote in parliament, so the 0.7 is still on the statute books. what we are challenging the government about is, well, show us that you have got the numbers to put that through, because actually, we think the will of parliament is not in favour of doing this at a time when we are in the middle of a global pandemic and we really need to do what we can to help with the sanitation, hygiene, illnesses around the world. we have seen how interlinked we are. this is not the time to be cutting back. of course, when the economy shrinks, the 0.7 shrinks as a number, but don't let's go even further and cut it to 0.5. you mentioned the pandemic. some will say far more important things going on here, let's concentrate on that first? incredibly important, and i think the government has done an amazing job in terms of providing economic support and also on the vaccination programme. but we have been very fortunate with having more vaccines than we need,

and apparently one of the things constraining our ability to give more of that surplus vaccine to countries that are really struggling has been the fact that we would go over this 0.5 which is been arbitrarily imposed, and the will of parliament has not been tested on reducing it to 0.5, so we are challenging the government on monday to see if they have got the numbers. we think that the 0.7 which is on the statute books is correct. can i finallyjust ask you where you think this leaves the conservative party? from the outside looking in, it looks like more infighting. i think it is highlighting the fact that we have done an amazing job in this country in terms of the vaccination roll—out, and that there are many of us who want to be very generous with that surplus vaccine, make sure we are able to give it to more countries. i certainly hope that's the kind of announcement we will see at the g7, and we all want to be part of global britain, we all want to show the good we can do in the world, on the world stage. that's very much the brand of the

party, and this helps us do that. the headlines on bbc news: disappointment for holidaymakers as portugal is removed from the green list of places travellers can go without quarantine. seven countries have been added to the red list, including egypt and trinidad and tobago. six asylum seekers formerly housed at napier barracks in kent have won a legal challenge against the government, after a high courtjudge found their accommodation failed to meet a "minimum standard". ministers are facing a rebellion that could force them to reverse their cuts to the overseas aid budget. let's return to our top story this afternoon, and in the last couple of minutes, we've heard seven countries will be added to the red list for travel from england when it's updated later today. they are: afghanistan, bahrain, costa rica, egypt, sri lanka, sudan, and trinidad and tobago. it's also understood no additional countries will be added to england's green list for international travel.

and bbc news has been told that portugal will be removed from the green list. well, let's get reaction to this. joining me now is the lib dem mp for twickenham and the liberal democrat health spokesperson munira wilson. good afternoon. thanks forjoining us. confusing for the holiday makers, and those watching at home. your thoughts on what we have just heard about? your thoughts on what we have 'ust heard aboun— heard about? well, of course, it will come _ heard about? well, of course, it will come as— heard about? well, of course, it will come as a _ heard about? well, of course, it will come as a huge _ heard about? well, of course, it will come as a huge blow - heard about? well, of course, it will come as a huge blow for i will come as a huge blow for thousands of people up and down this country who will be desperate for a foreign holiday or to visit loved one abroad, and indeed for the travel industry. however, given the immense sacrifices the british public have made throughout this pandemic, to get our case numbers low and given the success of our vaccination programme, taking a cautious approach to international travel, i do believe, is the right way forward, because the way out of

restrictions has got to be three—pronged. it has got to be a successful roll—out of the vaccination programme. it's also got to be really robust public health measures that our borders, and also, continuing to test and trace every single case and provide support to those who need to self—isolate. iloathed those who need to self-isolate. what would ou those who need to self-isolate. what would you do? _ those who need to self-isolate. what would you do? what _ those who need to self—isolate. what would you do? what would you implement differently?- would you do? what would you implement differently? well, first of all, i implement differently? well, first of all. i think— implement differently? well, first of all, i think we _ implement differently? well, first of all, i think we need _ implement differently? well, first of all, i think we need much i implement differently? well, first i of all, i think we need much clearer messaging. for example, we got an amber list, but the government have then said, there is an amber list, but don't travel there. so let's have real clarity on where people should or shouldn't travel to, but equally, that amber list needs to be backed up by the testing companies that are on the government's approved list of testing companies, they are regularly failing to deliver test on time or results on time, we know that arrangements at airports for people arriving from green, amber or red list countries have been far from green, amber or red list countries have been farfrom optimal, which has allowed the virus to spread in

those congested areas or cause huge, long waiting times. but also, having safe and secure transport for those arriving from red list countries or indeed, amber list countries, to wherever they are going to self—isolate or quarantine. so i think that's what we need, much clearer messaging and firm erection around what happens at our borders. but frankly, given the progress we have made domestically, with thousands of businesses up and down this country, we are able to start seeing and holding our loved ones again, we don't want to put that at risk and therefore, to be able to put that domestic reopening and allow our economy to thrive, perhaps what needs to be thought about now is a sector specific package of support to the travel industry to allow them to cope with the hit they are having to take in order to protect our domestic reopening. labour argue they should not be an amber list. it should be clearer,

just a green and red list. is that what you are saying? they are suggesting there that people needs to be clearer —— the messaging needs to be clearer —— the messaging needs to be clearer —— the messaging needs to be clearer. ii to be clearer -- the messaging needs to be clearer-— to be clearer. if you look at the rules, it to be clearer. if you look at the rules. it is _ to be clearer. if you look at the rules, it is very _ to be clearer. if you look at the rules, it is very clear _ to be clearer. if you look at the rules, it is very clear what i to be clearer. if you look at the rules, it is very clear what they| rules, it is very clear what they are for red, green and amber. if the data and science backs up that amber list, then fair enough, but i think what you need behind that is much clearer messaging. if we are going to have an amber list, then don't say don't travel to those countries. if you think you will travel to those, put them on the red list... sorry to interrupt, i am slightly confused. you are saying the messages are not clear, but then you are seeing the rules are clear. ida. are seeing the rules are clear. no, the rules are _ are seeing the rules are clear. no, the rules are clear, _ are seeing the rules are clear. its, the rules are clear, the messaging behind it is not. either you have an amber list and therefore say to people, well, ok, you can travel to those countries if you need or want to travel, but you have to follow these rules, and we have to make sure you are self isolating or that

the testing companies we are recommending to user delivering the tests on time and that they are easily accessible at home. some people are meant to leave home when they are meant to be self isolating to get tests. that is not a sensible way forward when you have told people to self—isolate at home. i don't have a problem with an amber list, but it must be backed up with the right measures around it and clear messaging. if the government thinks, and if the scientists are advising we shouldn't have an amber list, then get rid of it, but we need a clear message around that based on decent scientific advice and robust processes around it. lats and robust processes around it. lots of talk about— and robust processes around it. lots of talk about the _ and robust processes around it. lots of talk about the red and amber list. let's quickly mention portugal on the green list. now taken of that, we understand. was it wrong to put portugal on the green list in the first place? i put portugal on the green list in the first place?— put portugal on the green list in the first place? i suspect we are ttoin the first place? i suspect we are totin to the first place? i suspect we are going to see _ the first place? i suspect we are going to see this _ the first place? i suspect we are going to see this on _ the first place? i suspect we are going to see this on and - the first place? i suspect we are going to see this on and off- going to see this on and off throughout the summer as we did last year with lots of countries, and i suspect as a result of that, you will find lots of families up and

down the countryjust deciding it's a safe and not to take a foreign holiday, as indeed i and my own family have decided, both last year and this year. i think it is inevitable. what i would like to see, actually, it's clear criteria published by government as to when countries get on to green, amber or red lists, because there has been a lot of confusion around what the criteria are, as we saw with india not being added to the red list more promptly, which is now we why we have ended up with the indian variant spreading so widely throughout the country in potentially putting the rest of the reopening at risk.— potentially putting the rest of the reopening at risk. munira wilson, thanks forjoining _ reopening at risk. munira wilson, thanks forjoining us. _ opposition parties in israel have agreed to join forces and form a new coalition government involving eight parties, in a deal which would end benjamin netanyahu's time in power. under the agreement, the head of the right—wing yamina party, naftali bennett, would serve as prime ministerfirst. in august 2023, he would then be replaced by yair lapid, leader of the centrist

yesh atid party. another key player in the plans is the arab islamist raam party leader, mansourabbas, who was also pictured signing the agreement. the deal — which still has to be approved by the israeli parliament — would mean the end of benjamin netanyahu's12—year tenure as prime minister. if next week's vote in parliament fails, there is a risk israel would have to hold another election, the fifth in two and a half years. it comes almost two weeks after israel and palestinian militants agreed a ceasefire following an 11—day conflict in which more than 250 people were killed, most in gaza. mark lobel reports. an image of profound change. a right—wing jewish nationalist, a centrist, and unprecedentedly, an arab islamist. charting israel's way forward. two weeks after the country was on a war footing, political foes warmly pledging to work together on a range of issues. translation: education,

welfare, employment, i economic development, planning and construction, housing shortage, and, of course, the eradication of crime and violence. there are many things in this agreement that benefit arab society as well as israeli society as a whole. unveiling the eight—party agreement, formerfinance minister yair lapid is to take over as prime minister in two years' time from the right—wing nationalist naftali bennett — no fan of the two—state solution, and keen on expanding israeli settlements in occupied palestinian lands. not that anyone is mentioning the peace process in all this. the labour party leader wrote it was an historic day, having secured her party a place on the influentialjudicial committee with plenty more horse trading to come. these israelis are ecstatic at the prospect of the country's longest—serving prime minister bibi netanyahu being replaced. my fellow protesters

and i were in the streets for more than a year, so it's a great celebration. we are hopeful for this change. the bbc caught up with him. mr netanyahu, is this your last week as prime minister? will this be your last week as prime minister? is that a wish or a question? he can still stop this plan from becoming a reality by peeling off politicians before a crucial parliamentary vote within days. it's not inconceivable that this government will fall short of the 61—seat majority, and you can be assured that netanyahu will do everything possible to sabotage it by trying to work to get defectors. but there's no denying a major shift in israeli politics is now looking likely. thousands of current and former tesco workers have won a legal argument in theirfight for equal pay. the tesco workers, mostly women, argued that they failed to receive equal pay for work of equal value

and that is matthias wiessler, and that is because he made them, under the orders of martin bashir. he raised these concerns. there was an investigation, and martin bashir was declared an honourable man, and matthias wiessler never worked for the bbc again. well, he has now received a formal written apology, and today, there was a face—to—face meeting with tim davie, the director—general of the bbc. i asked him why this meant so much to him. because i still felt that to this day, the bbc were just saying things to sort of appease me, but i have come away from it feeling, no, they really, really support me, and they feel really, genuinely that they sort of want to... not help me, but, you know, clear up the past and start again, in a sort of friendly relationship. it had a real impact on your career. yes. will there be compensation? there might well be,

but i am not involved in that, and tim and i have spoken about that quite openly. it is sort of confidential, but we very much both just want to move on. matthias wiessler there, feeling much happier at the end of this. of course, this isn't the end of the matter. there is another report due out in the next few days looking at why the bbc re—employed martin bashir in 2016. more now on political developments in israel, where after negotiations went to the final hour before a deadline, opposition parties in israel agreed to form a new coalition government. it's a move that could end benjamin netanyahu's 12 years as prime minister. mr netanyahu himself has tweeted this morning... "all right—wing knesset members must oppose this dangerous

left—wing government." the knesset there meaning, of course, the israeli legislature, and mr netanyahu being the leader of likud, the major centre—right to right—wing party in israel. i'm joined now by social entrepeneur erel margalit, who served five years in the knesset as a member of the israeli labour party. good afternoon and thank you for joining us on bbc news. good afternoon. — joining us on bbc news. good afternoon, how— joining us on bbc news. good afternoon, how are _ joining us on bbc news. good afternoon, how are you - joining us on bbc news. good afternoon, how are you guys i joining us on bbc news. good | afternoon, how are you guys in london? here it's raining in new york. �* , london? here it's raining in new york. 3 , , london? here it's raining in new york. �*, , , , london? here it's raining in new york. , , york. it's sunny here but i won't rub it in- — york. it's sunny here but i won't rub it in. close _ york. it's sunny here but i won't rub it in. close but— york. it's sunny here but i won't rub it in. close but not - york. it's sunny here but i won't rub it in. close but not quite - york. it's sunny here but i won't l rub it in. close but not quite there yet for these coalition plans? yes but everyone _ yet for these coalition plans? jazz but everyone has seen yet for these coalition plans? iezs but everyone has seen a new chapter is coming to israel politically because they try to portray it as a left—wing government that it is a government that would be made up of people from the right, from the left, from the centre, the arab parties so it's a new initiative that brings people together in a way that brings people together in a way thatis that brings people together in a way that is different to what it was before and it's a challenge but it's

with palestinians economically commit it needs to be politically and it needs to move forward with something like a new chapter for israel. i'm sure it will come, it will probably have a few more hiccups in the process but i'm sure it will come. hiccups in the process but i'm sure it will come-— it will come. even if the coalition is successful _ it will come. even if the coalition is successful you _ it will come. even if the coalition is successful you cannot - it will come. even if the coalition is successful you cannot write i it will come. even if the coalition j is successful you cannot write off benjamin netanyahu, he will lead a successful operation. let’s benjamin netanyahu, he will lead a successful operation.— successful operation. let's see if ou will, successful operation. let's see if you will. he _ successful operation. let's see if you will, he has _ successful operation. let's see if you will, he has his _ successful operation. let's see if you will, he has his trial- successful operation. let's see if you will, he has his trial to - successful operation. let's see if you will, he has his trial to worry about because he is now being charged by the state with three different cases, two of them of corruption so he needs to handle himself and i know many people in the likud party, his party, they feel it is time that likud has a new chapter as well because if you were in power for chapter as well because if you were in powerfor12 chapter as well because if you were in power for 12 years chapter as well because if you were in powerfor12 years in government, god now sometimes the country needs a new ceo and a party needs a new ceo, refresh is something we press

from a sinking cargo ship. the ship caught fire nearly two weeks ago and debris and oil have already spread onto the coast, sparking fears of an environmental disaster. sri lankan officials believe the fire was caused by a chemical leak on board. secunder kermani reports. an environmental disaster that only looks to be getting worse. after a fire broke out around two weeks ago, this huge ship, the singapore—flagged x—press pearl, is sinking. desperate efforts to tow it further away from the coastline and reduce some of the harm have failed. millions of plastic pellets that were being transported have already contaminated sri lanka's western beaches. if we eat small species of fish whole, then if there are micro—plastics within the animals then humans consume them. this is by far the worst marine experience we have experienced in sri lanka so it is a pretty significant thing. there is a ban in place on fishing

along part of this coast now and worse could still be to come if the 350 tonnes of oil that were on board spill out. translation: there are two possibilities. | either all the fuel has caught fire or the oil could still be there. if the oil is still there we have already taken precautionary steps to handle that situation in case there is a leak. the blaze on board is believed to have been caused by a leak in a case of nitric acid. ports in both india and qatar had refused to let the crew off—load the chemical before the fire broke out. an investigation is under way but for now the focus is on avoiding yet more environmental damage. secunder kermani, bbc news. a greater focus must be placed on self—harm among the uk's over—65 population, because of the increased risks associated with the pandemic. that's the view of professor nav kapur, who developed the nice

guidelines on self—harm. new figures show over—655 are admitted to hospital in england around 5,000 times each year as a result of self—harm. adam eley has been to meet wendy, who has struggled during the pandemic. i don't deal well with the unknown, and restrictions didn't seem to be clearing, with no end to this pandemic. so thoughts of self—harm were creeping in when there didn't seem to be anything else. wendy has struggled with self—harm since her 20s. now 68, she says the pandemic has caused her added anxieties, with her mum being hospitalised after a covid infection. trying to get her care sorted was when i felt at my most delicate, really, mentally, emotionally. all of that on my shoulders, i was falling apart underneath. that's when i ended up harming myself. new data shows that over—655

are hospitalised around 5,000 times a year as a result of self—harm or self—poisoning in england. social isolation, bereavement and a reluctance to visit doctors are said to be factors, and all have been made worse by the pandemic. professor nav kapur helped write the nice guidelines on self—harm, and is warning that if older individuals don't get support, it can leave them at a much greater risk of taking their own lives. in one of the studies we did, older adults who hurt themselves were about 150 times more likely to die by suicide than older adults who hadn't. i think emphasising that every episode of self—harm needs to be taken seriously, especially in older adults, is a really important clinical message. even now, sometimes self—harm is regarded — as a low—risk behaviour by some clinicians. for wendy, the support of friends, loved ones and doctors is vital, but hasn't always been possible during the pandemic.

i haven't been singing in my choir, couldn't see my partner because we live in separate houses. i would normally have been able to go and present myself at my gp surgery, pre—pandemic. that wasn't available to me. the charity mind says it is important that we all look out for older adults, who may be struggling with self—harm. it's really important . not to be judgmental. just giving people space to talk is really, really powerful. - we could also look at ways - of helping them to find support, talking therapies, peer support, helping someone - navigate that system. wendy agrees that simple gestures can make a big difference. be kind. have a cup of tea and a chat. somehow, you just feel better. adam eley, bbc news. the nhs�*s national mental health director claire murdoch told the bbc that support is available for individuals through face—to—face gp appointments, expanded community mental health teams, talking therapy sessions and its

newly opened 24/7 crisis lines. and if you've been affected by these issues, you can go to bbc.co.uk/actionline for details of organisations offering information and support, or you can call forfree, at any time to hear recorded information on 0800 o66 o66. the online marketplace amazon has built a laboratory in the uk to process covid—i9 tests and identify virus variants from across europe. at the moment, it's only being used to test amazon's own workforce. our correspondent colletta smith has been given exclusive access to the site in manchester. this is the first delivery of the day. amazon staff are used to processing parcels fast, but this isn't a normal warehouse. what's inside these boxes isn't the usual amazon order. these are covid—i9 tests from amazon staff right across europe.

we decided during the covid outbreak that we really needed to maximise their protection to make sure that they were safe working in the fulfilment centres. and so the purpose of this laboratory is to test them for the presence of covid—i9 virus. these medical samples are the full tests that you'd normally have to go to a government centre for. but amazon have been testing their own workforce since september, and processing the results in—house. very much our results correlate with the rest of the world, so we do see how our fulfilment centres are within those communities and so we do see the same trends as the rest of the uk and the rest of europe across time. at the nearby giant warehouse, staff are queuing for their voluntary tests before they go on shift. like that, then go like that. it's an investment of billions. we normally have a rota, so it's a regular basis... so i asked the regional manager, neil, if this is a trial run for medical testing for their customers. this isjust really building up

on our infrastructure. again, the data's confidential, we share it with public health england so they have visibility of that. and this wasjust really in response to the covid pandemic. do you think it's reasonable that an employer holds that medical information? the data's anonymous. we don't... it's confidential, we share it with public health england so they have a record of that. but beyond that, we don't use it in any capacity. amazon's most valuable product is the information they already hold about us — their customers. this new lab is a way for the world's biggest online retailer to tap into the pool of medical data. colletta smith, bbc news, in greater manchester. a in greater manchester. bit further afield now. nasa has announced that it is sending two new missions to venus to examine the planet's atmosphere and geological features. the missions are scheduled to launch at the end of the decade. nasa hasn't been to venus since 1990. our north america correspondent david willis has a look now at why it's going back.

hardly the most hospitable planet in the solar system, if nasa's video release is to be believed, but the us space agency is headed back to our nearest planetary neighbour after decades spent exploring other worlds to check for signs of life. i'm excited to break some big news today. we have two new discovery missions to announce. christened the da vinci and the veritas missions, one will analyse the planet's atmosphere in an attempt to understand how it evolved, and with temperatures of a70 celsius why it's so hot. the other will map its rocky surface, complete with thousands of volcanoes, to discover why it developed so differently than planet earth. these two sister missions both aim to understand how venus became

an inferno—like world capable of melting lead at the surface. they will offer the entire science community the chance to investigate a planet we haven't been to in more than 30 years. atlantis, houston, everything down here looks real good to us. these will be the first missions of their kind since nasa used a space shuttle to send its magellan spacecraft into orbit around venus in 1989. interest in the fiery planet was rekindled recently when astronomers said they detected a chemical in the clouds that could point to possible signs of life. there is a belief that venus is like an evil twin to the earth. so once upon a time, conditions in venus were very conducive to life, so we wanted to go ahead and check that aspect of it and how much has changed since and why it changed since. after looking to the moon

and mars for the last three decades, venus, it seems, is the new final frontier. david willis, bbc news, los angeles. now it's time for a look at the weather with ben. hello there. after a few days of steadily climbing temperatures, today they have dropped back a bit, a cool feel and we stick with that in the next few days but it will be mostly dry, not completely dry and through of today we will start to see a few showers creeping across the southern counties, into western counties of northern ireland later as well. quite of northern ireland later as well. breezy in westerr winds quite breezy in western areas, light winds elsewhere in has temperatures today across eastern parts of england, 25 or 26 degrees in a few

places and doing quite well across the of scotland. this evening most places will be fine, one or two showers are likely to affect south—east england, may be north—east england, in between clear spells are still mild and muggy across eastern areas, 111 the overnight low for norwich and london and tomorrow we could see more rain across south—eastern parts, cloud bringing some patchy rain into northern england and the odd shower for scotland but for most it is a largely fine and sunny day but through the afternoon, into the south—east and the london area some showers are possible, most other spots fine and dry with sunshine and these temperatures are around where we would expect them to be at the time of year, always more cloud into northern ireland, the odd shower possible and one or two isolated showers are possible across scotland but most places here fine. at the weekend there are frontal systems on the chart but high

pressure will stay in charge so that means the weather fronts as they push in tend to be quite weak so we will see some cloud and patchy rain into northern ireland and western scotland through saturday, the odd heavy burst in the afternoon, elsewhere fine with spells of sunshine and temperatures generally between 18 and possibly 23 degrees down to the south—east. on sunday it looks like a dry day for the majority, the remnants of that weather front producing some extra cloud, maybe the odd shower in the afternoon but nothing more than that and top temperatures on sunday 23 in london, highs around 18 in glasgow.

this is bbc news. the headlines... disappointment for holiday—makers from england as portugal is removed from the green list of places travellers can go without quarantine. the squalid barracks in kent where hundreds of asylum seekers got covid. a high courtjudge says the government broke the law by putting them there. the director—general of the bbc makes a personal apology to the whistleblower who raised concerns about martin bashir�*s interview with princess diana. 50 days till the tokyo olympics, but will they go ahead and, if they do, will there be any crowds to watch? and the queen will meet joe biden next week, making him the 12th serving us president to have met her majesty.

hello and welcome to bbc news. the bbc understands portugal is to be added to the government's amber travel list for people in england. an official announcement is expected shortly. from next tuesday, while it will be legal to go to portugal, it will be officially advised against and people must quarantine on their return. and the bbc has been told no new countries will be added to england's green list of destinations which people can travel to without quarantine. it is also understood that seven countries are to be added to the red list. those countries are afghanistan, bahrain, costa rica, egypt, sri lanka, sudan, and trinidad and tobago. james reynolds reports. these football fans who made the weekend journey to watch the champions league final in porto may be the last to enjoy easy travel

to portugalfor a while. the iberian country's coronavirus infection rate is now rising, and it's understood the uk government may now move portugal from the green to the amber list, which brings with it many more restrictions. 12 countries and territories are currently on the green list. there is no need to quarantine when travellers get home. but most of the world is on the amber list. travel is allowed, but the government advises against it. those returning will have to quarantine at home for ten days. arrivals from red list countries, where infections are highest, must quarantine in a government managed hotel. the government is now assessing this list. we have got to follow the data. of course i understand why people want to travel. of course i do. but we have to make sure we keep this country safe, especially because the vaccine programme is going so well. the green list, which includes

gibraltar, doesn't give holiday—makers much of a choice. for the travel industry, that's a concern. what we would like to see is for the ability of people to travel freely. testing is now in place and people are getting used to that. what they probably don't like getting used to is the volatility and i think that will be more subject to change but again more opportunity for people to get to where they want to go to. spain, like most of europe, is on the amber list, but the country's canary islands argue they should be considered separately. we can control the borders. and make it much more safe. i think the islands - should have a definite regulation, especially the canary islands which have a very strong relationship _ with the united kingdom and i think we should be treated _

in a different way. malta is also currently on the amber list. its vaccination rate is high. it hopes to get more tourists to visit but on this occasion the uk government is not expecting to add any more countries to its green list. james reynolds, bbc news. we can speak now to our business correspondent, vishala sri—pathma. changing developments this afternoon, where does this leave us, lots of uncertainty?— lots of uncertainty? incredible uncertainty — lots of uncertainty? incredible uncertainty to _ lots of uncertainty? incredible uncertainty to the _ lots of uncertainty? incredible uncertainty to the travel- lots of uncertainty? incredible - uncertainty to the travel industry. we look at companies like british airways and easyjet, the initial hits on the markets, their share prices are down, the owners of british airways losses of 5%, easyjet down a few percent too, but clearly it's a huge blow to companies, to hotel operators, to all the tourist spots that british tourist had to go at this time of yearin tourist had to go at this time of year in spain, portugal and italy because they were expecting more countries added to that green list, so it's really disappointing that there were not more added onto it. and we will look at the example of

portugal, given the green light a few weeks ago, now removed from that green list and thinking, this could be another summer written off. earlier we heard from experts warning that if you do book holidays for august, for example, there is no guarantee that the country you are going to will stay on that list of green. we have also heard people go out today to portugal, and some are hoping to get a flight back, even within 2a are of landing because they can't do the quarantine period. we saw this last summer as well, people unable to take that time of work and stay at home. so it has implications for everyday people booking holidays.— implications for everyday people booking holidays. social media hulu -- full of holiday-makers _ booking holidays. social media hulu -- full of holiday-makers enjoying l —— full of holiday—makers enjoying that such an abroad but desperately trying to work out how to get back which could be a costly exercise. last minute flights can cost a lot of money. in august i remember standing outside gatwick airport speaking to people coming back to croatia at the time because that had

been moved from the travel corridor list and fights back and cost into the hundreds of pounds, particularly if you want to get home.— if you want to get home. thank you very much- — i'm joined now by cristina del rio, a government tourism adviser in the canary islands. your reaction to this news? you must be very reliant on a uk tourism. it has been really disappointing because we do need tourism activity for the economic situation of the canary islands which are dependent on tourism, it's over 50% of our gdp, but also the british market is important, 40% of tourism that comes to the canary islands, and we were expecting to be on the green list nowadays, not only because of our business but because we have every relationship with airlines and we

understand that customers need a clear situation, the flights, we understand the government but we also understand the situation of the tourism sector.— also understand the situation of the tourism sector. could you maybe help us understand — tourism sector. could you maybe help us understand what _ tourism sector. could you maybe help us understand what the _ tourism sector. could you maybe help us understand what the situation - tourism sector. could you maybe help us understand what the situation is i us understand what the situation is like there with a pandemic and how safe you actually think it is their? paint a picture of what it is like. we have been working on the pandemic situation for one year and a few months ago and we have developed a best strategy to make it a safe destination. most of our population is already vaccinated, we have a really quick evolution of vaccine procedures, may be end ofjuly 70% of people will be vaccinated and i have checked this information with the health department of the canary islands, so 70% of people, more than 16 years old, will be vaccinated,

and rates of covid are low, we have kept it like this since last march so we have one year and a half of containing the pandemic situation and that's why we think between islands, they should have a different treatment in the situation, we can show it, you have shown in the uk and we can show it in the canary islands, the treatments and procedures should be more flexible for tourists. in treatments and procedures should be more flexible for tourists.— more flexible for tourists. in the last few minutes, _ more flexible for tourists. in the last few minutes, the _ more flexible for tourists. in the last few minutes, the transport| last few minutes, the transport secretary here has confirmed that portugal has now been moved off the green list. ijust wanted to get your take on the locals, would they welcome the brits? because last week, even with the champions league final, we saw locals in portugal hesitant to receive those english supporters because of the coronavirus risk. we supporters because of the coronavirus risk.- supporters because of the coronavirus risk. s . �* . . coronavirus risk. we don't have that situation here _ coronavirus risk. we don't have that situation here in _ coronavirus risk. we don't have that situation here in the _ coronavirus risk. we don't have that situation here in the canary - situation here in the canary islands. there was a big event with

a big crowd, but here we are willing to receive the tourists, the british tourists, because they love the islands, they have a very strong relationship in most companies do depend on that. most of the employment is depending on that so we do really need tourists and to be open again and to offer a certain s the situation. we want to open the destination for the tourism sector and the british market in particular as soon as possible.— and the british market in particular as soon as possible. thank you very much forjoining _ as soon as possible. thank you very much forjoining us _ as soon as possible. thank you very much forjoining us here _ as soon as possible. thank you very much forjoining us here on - as soon as possible. thank you very much forjoining us here on bbc - much forjoining us here on bbc news. much for 'oining us here on bbc news. . �* i . | much for 'oining us here on bbc news._ i went | much for 'oining us here on bbcl news._ i want to news. you're welcome. i want to recap that — news. you're welcome. i want to recap that breaking _ news. you're welcome. i want to recap that breaking news - news. you're welcome. i want to recap that breaking news that. news. you're welcome. i want to recap that breaking news that we have had from grant shapps confirming that portugal will be removed from the green list and added to amber. now let's speak to rebecca morgan, who is currently on holiday in portugal. it looks lovely and sunny where you

are! your reaction to this news? it's a bit of a mixed one. for me this holiday has been wonderful, it's great to be in the sunshine and great to be out of the uk for a little while but i've been hesitant about there being a lot of uncertainty around what we will need to do to travel and come back to the uk. i have not had my lateralflow tester come back to the uk yet because i was worried portugal will move back onto the amber things will change, and there has also been the added expense of doing all the pcr tests and things so i've been trying to keep my purse strings tight one had been on holiday but at the same time i've tried to accept that it's one of those things and i'm lucky to be hit in the first place. $5 i be hit in the first place. as i understand _ be hit in the first place. as i understand that _ be hit in the first place. as i understand that you're - be hit in the first place. as i understand that you're returning on sunday, sojust understand that you're returning on sunday, so just about missed this from our understanding, so have you thought about those travel plans or sticking with what you have? i’m

sticking with what you have? i'm sticking with what you have? in sticking with what you have? in sticking with what you have? in sticking with what i've got which is a big relief to me because when there was discussion about portugal changing and moving to the amber list i was keeping an eye on flights, i thought i might have to come back early, come back on saturday, a day earlier than planned, so from my point of view i've been really lucky to still stick to my original plans. some of the people i've chatted to today, they have actually got their flights booked for later on so they are due to come back after restrictions on change on tuesday and wednesday and thursday, there has been a bit of a mixed response there, the ones that are working, it's an issue for them because they are having to change their work plans as well. they also have to use different tests as well. i feel like i am have to use different tests as well. ifeel like i am one of have to use different tests as well. i feel like i am one of the lucky ones but i have sympathy for people who have had plans and they need to change what they are doing.- change what they are doing. looking at those blue — change what they are doing. looking at those blue skies _ change what they are doing. looking at those blue skies behind _ change what they are doing. looking at those blue skies behind you - change what they are doing. looking at those blue skies behind you in - at those blue skies behind you in this picture is of the beach, you

definitely are one of the lucky ones! why did you want to go abroad given the current situation? for ones! why did you want to go abroad given the current situation?- given the current situation? for me, i work for the _ given the current situation? for me, i work for the nhs, _ given the current situation? for me, i work for the nhs, and _ given the current situation? for me, i work for the nhs, and i _ given the current situation? for me, i work for the nhs, and i have - given the current situation? for me, i work for the nhs, and i have had i i work for the nhs, and i have had annual leave over the last 18 months but mostly i've been using that to pick up extra shifts and do my bit to help out. so for me this is the first full week i've had off since covid started so i've been trying to enjoy it and switch off and make the most of it. but enjoy it and switch off and make the most of it. �* i i enjoy it and switch off and make the most of it. �* i , , most of it. but this news this afternoon. — most of it. but this news this afternoon, it _ most of it. but this news this afternoon, it is _ most of it. but this news this afternoon, it is probably - most of it. but this news this - afternoon, it is probably because some unnecessary stress, i guess? i think so. certainly the last 24 think so. certainly the last 2a hours, knowing that portugal's status will change has been a definite stress. i have been keeping my eye on the news and that has... and flight prices have gone up over the last few hours. but now that i know that things will change on

tuesday, after i fly back to the uk, that has been a big relief for me so now ijust need to run around town and see if i can find a lateral flow test which i have been holding off booking just in case things change. in portugal, rebecca, thank you for joining us and have a slate —— have a safe flight home. i'll be joining you later! let's recap that news we have had from the transport minister in the last few min —— minutes, confirming portugal has been removed from the green list and added to amber, that kicking in on tuesday, so we have heard from rebecca, her flights on sunday she avoids it manages to get home to the uk whilst is still on the green list. let's move on. the high court has ruled that the home office broke the law by housing cross—channel migrants in a run—down barracks in folkestone, where around 200 men contracted covid while sleeping in dormitories. six asylum seekers brought the challenge, saying the conditions were appalling and squalid

and the home office fell short of its duty of care towards them. their victory paves the way for a damages claim against the home secretary, priti patel. dominic casciani has more. a former army base just a mile from the english channel, a temporary home for asylum seekers arriving in dinghies and lorries, this is napier barracks. for months, campaigners have called for its closure. a fire ripped through part of the complex in january and there have been repeated protests by the hundreds of men housed here. now, in a criticaljudgement, the high court has ruled that the home office has breached its own minimum standards of care. some 200 men contracted covid in the first months of this year. public health england had warned the home office this could happen. today, mrjustice linden ruled that it was inevitable there would be a major outbreak of covid—i9. he said that led to actual bodily harm of the residents and as a result the mental health of the claimants deteriorated. today, men who arrived from the middle east were telling us napier is inhumane.

we do not have hot water, internet, electricity. we have just one shower for 100 persons and live in this military base, 100 people. you understand ? if you need food, had food. and same food, notjust bad. everything, my friends, are bad here. while the home office says it is disappointed with today's judgment, it has not said whether it will appeal. it has no plans to close napier in the short term because it is going to use it to hold migrants crossing the channel in dinghies during the summer months. anybody who is familiar with the conditions at the barracks will know that human beings should not be kept in conditions like that, much less people who are recovering from the trauma of conflict or persecution and even more so in a pandemic. officials insist that conditions in the barracks have massively improved but charities say today's ruling means home secretary priti patel cannot be trusted with the health and safety

of the migrants. let's return to the news that portugal has been removed from england's green travel list, confirmed the last few minutes, we can hear from confirmed the last few minutes, we can hearfrom grant shapps now. i can hear from grant shapps now. i want to be straight with people. it is a difficult decision to make but in the end we have seen two things which have caused concern, one is the positivity rate has nearly doubled since the last review in portugal, and the other is that there is a sort of mutation of the so—called indian variant which has been detected, and we just don't know the potential fact, been detected, and we just don't know the potentialfact, a been detected, and we just don't know the potential fact, a vaccine defeating mutation, and we don't want to take the risk as we come up to the 21st ofjune and the review of the fourth stage of the unlock. the travel industry is in turmoil

today— the travel industry is in turmoil today with _ the travel industry is in turmoil today with this news. when you provide — today with this news. when you provide more support for the furlough _ provide more support for the furlough scheme, the grand scheme? the support— furlough scheme, the grand scheme? the support for the travel industry who goodness knows have suffered throughout this crisis is ongoing, we have got £7 billion worth of support which is still being paid out including through the furlough scheme but what i want to do with today's difficult but i hope decisive action is make sure that we protect the future by not restarting problems which may or may not be there, at home we will get international travel down the line opened more quickly, so it is a safety first approach which i see that gatwick and others have said is an understandable approach, given where we are in the fourth stage of the unlock. but where we are in the fourth stage of the unlock-— where we are in the fourth stage of the unlock. �* , . the unlock. but when you extend the furlouh the unlock. but when you extend the furlough scheme _ the unlock. but when you extend the furlough scheme for _ the unlock. but when you extend the furlough scheme for them _ the unlock. but when you extend the furlough scheme for them and - the unlock. but when you extend the furlough scheme for them and would you guarantee there will be support there _ you guarantee there will be support there for— you guarantee there will be support there for the industry given that they are — there for the industry given that they are likely to be in for a difficult _ they are likely to be in for a

happen to the domestic unlock first, we all look towards the 21st ofjune to see what can be done, and we don't want to put that at risk through these figures which we have seenin through these figures which we have seen in portugal, both the doubling of the positivity rate that we have seen, and also this mutation, the so—called nepal mutation, the so—called nepal mutation, the so—called indian variant which could then cause us problems down the line, so safety first to get our unlock done at home. find line, so safety first to get our unlock done at home. �* . i. unlock done at home. and what can we exect unlock done at home. and what can we expect throughout _ unlock done at home. and what can we expect throughout the _ unlock done at home. and what can we expect throughout the rest _ unlock done at home. and what can we expect throughout the rest of - unlock done at home. and what can we expect throughout the rest of the - expect throughout the rest of the summer? — expect throughout the rest of the summer? it's starting to look a bit like it— summer? it's starting to look a bit like it did — summer? it's starting to look a bit like it did last year with countries going _ like it did last year with countries going on— like it did last year with countries going on and off and a level of uncertainty, is that something we are expecting to see or do you still think— are expecting to see or do you still think more — are expecting to see or do you still think more countries will be added to the _ think more countries will be added to the green list in three weeks' time? _ to the green list in three weeks' time? 0t— to the green list in three weeks' time? i . i i to the green list in three weeks' time? i . , , . to the green list in three weeks' time? , , . ,, time? of course things are less certain than _ time? of course things are less certain than they _ time? of course things are less certain than they would - time? of course things are less certain than they would have i time? of course things are less i certain than they would have been time? of course things are less - certain than they would have been a couple of years ago, that is the nature of coronavirus but on the other hand, we have done wonders with our vaccination programme and

the rest of the world will catch up, europe is probably ten weeks behind but they will catch up, and i don't know exactly what that will mean in terms of the summer but the decisive action today is designed to protect the future, to make sure that we can do a domestic unlock or give ourselves the best possible chance of doing so, that will also help us to unlock international travel given time so we are not in the same place as last year, we have got the vaccination programme, but we do need to check that the vaccine can work against all the kinds of mutations that we are seeing so we have to take a safety first attitude when it comes to those mutations. and final question, obviously we will see — and final question, obviously we will see variants come up on a regular— will see variants come up on a regular basis, how quickly are you planning _ regular basis, how quickly are you planning to— regular basis, how quickly are you planning to push countries onto either— planning to push countries onto either amber or planning to push countries onto eitheramber or red when planning to push countries onto either amber or red when you don't necessarily— either amber or red when you don't necessarily know what that variant is, how _ necessarily know what that variant is, how dangerous it is or how it is affected _ is, how dangerous it is or how it is affected lry— is, how dangerous it is or how it is affected by the vaccine? we is, how dangerous it is or how it is affected by the vaccine?— affected by the vaccine? we will

safety first approach to give us the best chance of unlocking here, we will have more on that later hit on bbc news. a firearms officer has told an inquestjury he feared he would die as he tackled the fishmongers hall killer usman khan. the officer, identified only as wss, said, when he saw khan's fake suicide belt, he thought he wouldn't go home that night. daniel sandford has more from the inquest. in the inquest into the death of usman khan, the fishmongers' hall attacker who had just killed two people, we have today heard from the three firearms officers who were first on the scene. they arrived in a police car from very, very close by and got to london bridge while a group of men were still holding usman khan to the ground trying to get the knives off him. first we heard from an officer known as wss — we're not giving his real name to preserve his identity on the order of the coroner. he describes going into the melee of people on the bridge and then suddenly, in the middle of trying

to get people off usman khan, realising that he had what he said looked like a viable improvised explosive device around his belt, and wss told the jury, "if i'm honest, i didn't think i was going home." he describes trying to pull off the last member of the public that was tackling khan before his colleagues then took over. we then heard from yx16, who was in the same car when he arrived. he also got involved in the fight with usman khan and decided that he needed to be incapacitated. he didn't see this fake suicide belt that usman khan was wearing and so when the last person was pulled off usman khan hejust opens fire with his taser in an attempt to incapacitate him so that they could get a better control of the situation. in fact, in the whole course of the afternoon's events, the officer yx16 never opened fire.

thirdly, we heard from the officer yx19, and he described going into the fight and usman khan looking up at him and saying, "i've got a bomb", at which point he decides that he will have to shoot him. he pulls away and waits for the last person to be pulled off usman khan and then he opens fire two times. about eight minutes later, usman khan sits up and then the first man we heard from, wss, also opens fire ten times. the former prime minister, theresa may, and more than a dozen other senior conservative mps have joined a rebellion against cuts to the uk's foreign aid budget. rebel tories believe they have enough support to win a vote next monday that would force ministers to increase aid spending next year. this from our diplomatic correspondent, james landale. for years, britain has been a world leader in delivering humanitarian and development aid around the world. but this year, the government has

made cuts, saying it has to repair the public finances hit by the pandemic. now a growing number of conservative mps, including the former prime minister, theresa may, are fighting back. some 30 tory mps are backing plans to force the government to start spending more on aid next year. they say the cuts have had a devastating impact on the lives of some of the world's most vulnerable people. we are talking about famine relief globally, we are talking about access to clean water in a pandemic so that people can wash. we are talking about access to girls' education which the prime minister made a huge commitment to, describing it as the swiss army knife that solved a myriad of problems and challenges and we are talking about women's rights to access to contraception which prevents them from having unwanted pregnancies. the government cut aid spending this year by about £4 billion. it did that by cutting its target to spend just 0.5% of national income on aid. the rebel amendment would

reinstate the original target of 0.7% next year. the rebels say they are confident of finding the 45 tory mps needed to win the crunch vote on monday. but ministers are looking at ways of heading off defeat and insist the uk's aid budget remains generous, about £10 billion despite the cuts. the biggest contribution that we can make to ending this pandemic globally is the fact that we put the investment in here in oxford to develop the oxford astrazeneca vaccine and now, with astrazeneca, we make it available at cost to the whole world, and that doesn't take aid, that takes british science. win or lose, the government will now be in the tricky position of having to defend its international aid cuts in the same week it's hosting the g7 summit in cornwall. james landale, bbc news. a date has been set for president biden's visit to buckingham palace to see the queen. the meeting will take place

on the 13th ofjune after his visit to cornwall for the g7 leaders' conference on climate change. the trip will be president biden's first visit abroad since he became president in january. now it's time for a look at the weather with ben. hello. after the high temperatures of the last few days, today is a little bit cooler for many of us. we stick with that slightly cooler feel for the next few days, though it will be mostly dry with some spells of sunshine. the highest temperatures this afternoon across eastern england, 25—26, and also north—east scotland not doing too badly. these are some of the sunniest spots as well. through this evening and tonight, we could see showery rain at times affecting east england, and the odd shower into western counties of northern ireland. clear spells in between, a pretty mild and muggy night across eastern parts, where tomorrow we could continue to see some bursts of showery rain from time to time.

thicker cloud, bringing a bit of patchy rain into western counties of northern ireland. in between, good spells of sunshine, and while it is a little cooler than it has been, 18—21, it will feel very pleasant in the sunshine. more sunny spells through the weekend, a few showers here and there, and temperatures still high teens or low 20s. hello. this is bbc news. the headlines... disappointment for holidaymakers as portugal is removed from the green list of places travellers can go without quarantine. seven countries have been added to the red list, including egypt, and trinidad and tobago. six asylum seekers — formerly housed at napier barracks in kent — have won a legal challenge against the government, after a high courtjudge found their accommodation failed to meet a "minimum standard". the director general of the bbc has made a personal apology to the whistleblower. who raised concerns about martin bashir 5 interview with princess diana. ministers are facing a rebellion

england's reply didn't get off to a great start, dom sibley recording his 5th duck in test cricket. they were 4—1 and then tim southee got zak crawley — who sent a thick outside edge through to bj watling. england were 18 for 2, they're currently 38 for 2 after tea. cameron norrie is into the third round of the french open for the first time in his career, the only british player left in the singles continued his brilliant clay court form coming from a set down to beat south africa's lloyd harris in four. he'll potentially face the 13 time winner rafa nadal next — he takes on richard gasquet tonight. the world number one novak djokovic and roger federer i should say are both in action at the moment, and looking set to reach the third round. but the women's world number one ash barty won't be there, she says she's heartbroken after having to retire injured during her second round match against magda linette. the 2019 champion lost the first set

6—1 and left the court for a medical time—out before retiring at 2—2 all in the second set and now faces a race to be ready for wimbledon. there's also uncertainty over whether naomi osaka will play at wimbledon, after she pulled out of the french open on monday, a day after organisers threatened osaka said she wanted to protect her mental health. it's something lewis hamilton's been reacting to today. the formula one champion believes the way osaka's been treated isn't fair: she is incredibly brave. i applaud herfor her bravery she is incredibly brave. i applaud her for her bravery because it is now asking those in power and questioning them and making them think about how they react. i think the way they reacted was not good. and someone talking about their personal mental health and then being fined for it, that was not cool

after his disappointing time trial yesterday geraint thomas caught his rivals off guard to win the fifth stage of the criterium du daphine. the briton broke clear with around half a mile to the finish and just held on to take his first stage win of this year's race. he's now sixth overall fourteen seconds behind leader lukas postlberger. chris froome could only finish 85th and has ruled himself out of contention for a record—equalling fifth tour de france title later this month, saying he needs more time to rediscover his best form. ireland coach andy farrell willjoin warren gatland's backroom team for the upcoming british and irish lions tour of south africa. farrell was defence coach under gatland during the past two tours. he'lljoin the lions a week before theirfirst test against the springboks in cape town on the 24th ofjuly. the irish fa have comfirmed belfast will remain host of the uefa super cup in august. it'll take place at windsor park with champions league winners chelsea facing spanish side villareal, after they won

to portugal, it will be officially advised against and people must quarantine on their return. i'm joined now byjulia lo bue—said, ceo of advantage travel partnership. good afternoon. your organisation represents 700 independent travel agents across the uk. it must have been a stressful afternoon. it has been a stressful afternoon. it has been a stressful 18 months but this afternoon has been particularly pier. we are leading up to the summer holidays and when it came off the green list, it is utterly disappointing.— the green list, it is utterly disauointina. i , , i, disappointing. give us a sense of how big an _ disappointing. give us a sense of how big an impact _ disappointing. give us a sense of how big an impact this _ disappointing. give us a sense of how big an impact this is - disappointing. give us a sense of how big an impact this is having l disappointing. give us a sense of. how big an impact this is having on your industry. it is how big an impact this is having on your industry-— your industry. it is absolutely seismic. your industry. it is absolutely seismic- if— your industry. it is absolutely seismic. if you _ your industry. it is absolutely seismic. if you think, - your industry. it is absolutely - seismic. if you think, international travel has effectively been shut down for 18 months now, you have businesses, many travel agents, who have not been able to trade. they are earning no money, they see no light at the end of the tunnel, they are given some hope in selling a handful of destinations, and that

gets taken away. you are facing another summer, another season, with not being able to earn any income. the important part also is every time there is a change in destination, there are booking agents who are having to refund, cancel, reboot, the anxiety of consumers as well. it is catastrophic. it really is. i cannot stress that point enough. we catastrophic. it really is. icannot stress that point enough.- stress that point enough. we all knew the dangers _ stress that point enough. we all knew the dangers of _ stress that point enough. we all knew the dangers of the - stress that point enough. we all knew the dangers of the travel | knew the dangers of the travel system, with countries moving from green to amber, to read, and that being the case with portugal. what else would you have light done. how could this have been implemented? when we were engaging with the government through the global travel taskforce, one of the recommendations that came out with the traffic light system. that was they are to ensure we did not go back to what we saw last year, with countries coming off and coming off of the list. i'll be at this year, we have one week notice. customers

cannot afford that, the industry cannot afford that, the industry cannot afford that, the industry cannot afford that. the traffic light system was supposed to bring clarity for consumers and the industry, to be able to plan and work towards. that has not been given to us. communication around this has been appalling. the whole industry finding out through leaks today. and through a message from the transport secretary recorded not that long ago. this whole industry is held in the balance of a government unable to in munich it with us clearly. they have a policy and we need them to work with us on that so we can enable travellers to travel and businesses to trade their way out of this. but travel and businesses to trade their way out of this-— way out of this. but some will say the government _ way out of this. but some will say the government have _ way out of this. but some will say the government have to - way out of this. but some will say the government have to prioritise safety. the government have to prioritise safe . ~ i , i, , the government have to prioritise safe . ~ i , s the government have to prioritise safe , i . . i, safety. absolutely. we all have to. i would iob — safety. absolutely. we all have to. i would job is _ safety. absolutely. we all have to. i would job is to _ safety. absolutely. we all have to. i would job is to make _ safety. absolutely. we all have to. i would job is to make sure - safety. absolutely. we all have to. i would job is to make sure we - safety. absolutely. we all have to. i would job is to make sure we can| i would job is to make sure we can work towards government policy and ensure travellers can travel safely. that has ultimately been at the top of the list for the travel industry. we also have individuals who are

we both agreed it was a private meeting and we were going to speak very openly. we had a fantastic conversation. he made multiple, unreserved apology. which i thaw was great and he was really heartfelt about it. and then we had a private discussion about all sorts of things, including, you know, things to do with the bbc. i could not fault him. he wasjust... his and my mind sort of mashed, which was very good. mind sort of mashed, which was very ood. i mind sort of mashed, which was very .ood. , , mind sort of mashed, which was very ood. , , . ~ mind sort of mashed, which was very .ood. , , . ~' . mind sort of mashed, which was very good-— yes, i good. does this make amends? yes, ve much good. does this make amends? yes, very much so- _ good. does this make amends? yes, very much so. because _ good. does this make amends? yes, very much so. because i _ good. does this make amends? yes, very much so. because i still- good. does this make amends? yes, very much so. because i still felt - very much so. because i still felt that, to this day, the bbc were just seeing things to sort of appease me, but i have come away from it

there is always a bit of regret about that but, as i say, we have hit it off pretty well and i am quite happy right now. do you think you finally got some justice out of this? yes. opposition parties in israel have agreed tojoin forces and form a new coalition government involving eight parties, in a deal which would end benjamin netanyahu's time in power. under the agreement, the head of the right—wing yamina party, naftali bennett, would serve as prime ministerfirst. in august 2023, he would then be replaced by yair lapid, leader of the centrist yesh atid party. another key player in the plans is the arab islamist raam party leader, mansour abbas, who was also pictured signing the agreement. the deal — which still has to be approved by the israeli parliament — would mean the end of benjamin netanyahu's 12—year tenure as prime minister. if next week's vote in parliament fails, there is a risk israel would have to hold another election, the fifth, in two—and—a—half years.

it comes almost two weeks after israel and palestinian militants agreed a ceasefire following an 11—day conflict in which more than 250 people were killed, most in gaza. mark lobel reports. an image of profound change. a right—wing jewish nationalist, a centrist, and unprecedentedly, an arab islamist. charting israel's way forward. two weeks after the country was on a war footing, political foes warmly pledging to work together on a range of issues. translation: education, welfare, employment, - economic development, planning and construction, housing shortage, and, of course, the eradication of crime and violence. there are many things in this agreement that benefit arab society as well as israeli society as a whole. unveiling the eight—party agreement, formerfinance minister yair lapid is to take over as prime minister in two years' time from the right—wing

nationalist naftali bennett — no fan of the two—state solution, and keen on expanding israeli settlements in occupied palestinian lands. not that anyone is mentioning the peace process in all this. the labour party leader wrote it was an historic day, having secured her party a place on the influentialjudicial committee with plenty more horse trading to come. these israelis are ecstatic at the prospect of the country's longest—serving prime minister bibi netanyahu being replaced. my fellow protesters and i were in the streets for more than a year, so it's a great celebration. we are hopeful for this change. the bbc caught up with him. mr netanyahu, is this your last week as prime minister? will this be your last week as prime minister? is that a wish or a question? he can still stop this plan from becoming a reality by peeling off politicians before a crucial parliamentary vote within days.

it's not inconceivable that this government will fall short of the 61—seat majority, and you can be assured that netanyahu will do everything possible to sabotage it by trying to work to get defectors. but there's no denying a major shift in israeli politics is now looking likely. benjamin netanyahu has tweeted this morning saying 'all right—wing knesset members must oppose this dangerous left—wing government. the headlines on bbc news... disappointment for holidaymakers as portugal is removed from the green list of places travellers can go without quarantine. seven countries have been added to the red list, including egypt, and trinidad and tobago. six asylum seekers — formerly housed at napier barracks in kent — have won a legal challenge against the government, after a high courtjudge found their accommodation failed to meet a "minimum standard". ministers are facing a rebellion

that could force them to reverse their cuts to the overseas aid budget. officials in central nigeria have confirmed that 136 students were kidnapped by gunmen on sunday. the attack took place at an islamic school in a village in niger state and is the latest in a series of mass abductions for ransom. more than 1,000 children and teaching staff have already been kidnapped by gunmen since december. our nigeria correspondent, mayenijones has been following the story from lagos and told us more. this latest mass kidnapping took place on sunday, as you mentioned in your introduction, in the middle of the afternoon in broad daylight, which is actually quite unusual. usually these types of kidnappings tend to happen at night. but in the middle of the afternoon a number of men on motorbikes with guns stormed this islamic school in the village of tagina,

it is in niger state, which is really close to the capital abuja, actually, in central nigeria. they took 136 students with them. they had taken more initially. they let some of them go because they said they were too young to walk the length that would be needed to walk. usually the kidnappers tend to take students into forestry, wooded areas nearby. so they released some of the youngest students, but 136 to remain in detention. a greater focus must be placed on self—harm among the uk s over—65 population, because of the increased risks associated with the pandemic. that s the view of professor nav kapur, who developed the nice guidelines on self—harm. he says factors such as social isolation, bereavement and a reluctance to access gps are known to increase the likelihood of self—harm among older adults, and all have been made worse by the pandemic. new figures show over—655 are admitted to hospital in england

around 5,000 times each year as a result of self—harm. adam eley has been to meet wendy, who has struggled during the pandemic. i don't deal well with the unknown, and restrictions didn't seem to be clearing, with no end to this pandemic. so thoughts of self—harm were creeping in when there didn't seem to be anything else. wendy has struggled with self—harm since her 20s. now 68, she says the pandemic has caused her added anxieties, with her mum being hospitalised after a covid infection. trying to get her care sorted was when i felt at my most delicate, really, mentally, emotionally. all of that on my shoulders, i was falling apart underneath. that's when i ended up harming myself. new data shows that over—655 are hospitalised around 5,000 times a year as a result of self—harm or self—poisoning in england.

social isolation, bereavement and a reluctance to visit doctors are said to be factors, and all have been made worse by the pandemic. professor nav kapur helped write the nice guidelines on self—harm, and is warning that if older individuals don't get support, it can leave them at a much greater risk of taking their own lives. in one of the studies we did, older adults who hurt themselves were about 150 times more likely to die by suicide than older adults who hadn't. i think emphasising that every episode of self—harm needs to be taken seriously, especially in older adults, is a really important clinical message. even now, sometimes self—harm is regarded as a low—risk behaviour by some clinicians. for wendy, the support of friends, loved ones and doctors is vital, but hasn't always been possible during the pandemic. i haven't been singing in my choir, couldn't see my partner because we live in separate houses.

i would normally have been able to go and present myself at my gp surgery, pre—pandemic. that wasn't available to me. the charity mind says it is important that we all look out for older adults, who may be struggling with self—harm. it's really important not to be judgmental. just giving people space to talk is really, really powerful. we could also look at ways of helping them to find support, talking therapies, peer support, helping someone navigate that system. wendy agrees that simple gestures can make a big difference. be kind. have a cup of tea and a chat. somehow, you just feel better. adam eley, bbc news. the nh5 5 national mental health director claire murdoch told the bbc that support is available for individuals through face—to—face gp appointments, expanded community mental health teams, talking therapy sessions and its newly opened 24/7 crisis lines. and if you've been affected by these issues you can go

if we eat small species of fish whole, then if there are micro—plastics within the animals then humans consume them. this is by far the worst marine disaster we have experienced in sri lanka so it is a pretty significant thing. there is a ban in place on fishing along part of this coast now and worse could still be to come if the 350 tonnes of oil that were on board spill out. translation: there are two possibilities. | either all the fuel has caught fire or the oil could still be there. if the oil is still there we have already taken precautionary steps to handle that situation in case there is a leak. the blaze on board is believed to have been caused by a leak in a container of nitric acid. ports in both india and qatar had refused to let the crew off—load the chemical before the fire broke out. an investigation is under way but for now the focus is on avoiding yet more environmental damage. secunder kermani, bbc news.

it's one of the most recognisable items of clothing in history — and now princess diana's wedding dress is going back on public display at kensington palace for the first time in 25 years. ellie price's report has some flashing images. it was the wedding, the dress. even the archbishop of canterbury described the day as the stuff of fairy tales. 750 million people tuned in worldwide to watch. 600,000 people tried to see for themselves along the route from st paul's to buckingham palace. and out come the bride and groom. diana, the dress, the wedding — it marked the moment, a huge shift in the relationship between public and press and the royal family. it was the beginning of di—mania, this huge obsession with this young 20—year—old girl,

this absolute obsession with her that was never going to wane. the wedding took place on a warm wednesday in latejuly almost 40 years ago. it was a bank holiday and for those who didn't line the streets of london, it was essential viewing on the telly. what were you doing that day? i got dressed up in my mum's wedding dress and watched the royal wedding. and how old were you? i was about six. i was 17. did it feel like a fairy tale? it did. yeah, every girl's dream. i just think everybody - was so pleased to see them together and married. it was just essential viewing. nobody i knew didn't watch it. the dress is on display for the first time in 25 years at kensington palace — all 25 feet of train, 10,000 mother—of—pearl sequins and lots and lots of taffeta ruffles. along with the other items in the collection,

including this life—size test garment of the coronation gown of queen elizabeth, the queen mother, from 1937, it's a challenge to keep these dresses in their full royal glory. the ones that are in store, we monitor the environment that they're in, we look at things like relative humidity, the temperature, pests are also a very big problem. everything is packed in acid—free boxes and tissue paper and then obviously things that are on display, there's slightly different criteria, so we look at light levels, but we also do a little bit of hands—on conservation work. the dress has been loaned to the exhibition by her sons, the princes. it goes on displayjust a few weeks before what would have been diana's 60th birthday, a bittersweet reminder that life is rarely a simple as happily ever after. ah, that's what everybody�*s been waiting for. now it's time for a look at the weather with ben rich.
