officers. the bbc has been told prince harry and meghan didn't consult the queen about using her childhood nickname lilibet for their baby. clinging on to disappearing jobs. how part—time workers are being hit harder than full—time staff, with work for them at its lowest level in more than a decade. how much worse could it get when furlough winds up? the boos will not drown out the message — gareth southgate says england will continue to take the knee at euro 2020 when the tournament begins in two days�* time. doctor, doctor, you have to help me out. certainly. which way did you come in? the grandma celebrating her 100th birthday with 100 jokes to raise money for her local hospital. good morning, across the north and west there will be cloud, it will be breezy and for some heavy rain. central and eastern areas seeing sunshine and wherever you are today it will feel humid. all the details

coming up. it's wednesday the 9th ofjune. our top story. military personnel will be deployed across large parts of north—west england to help roll out a combination of surge testing and faster vaccinations. it's part of an effort to control the spread of the delta variant of coronavirus, which was first identified in india. the government has also issued new guidance, which recommends people meet up outside and minimise travel into and out of the affected areas. richard galpin has the story. in the warm summer sun, people here in manchester looking forward to the possibility of covid restrictions being lifted later this month. but, instead, they face new measures, including advice to avoid meeting indoors and to minimise nonessential travel in and out of the area. this is due to the delta variant spreading fastest in greater manchester and lancashire. some in the hospitality industry say

they are going to be hit againjust weeks after reopening. it's notjust accommodation providers but also taxi drivers, we have shopkeepers, souvenir places, musical events, pubs, bars, restaurants, and, as i said before, all the rules are actually specifically don't go in, or do go in. we need more clarity. the affected areas are bolton, which is already subject to surge testing, and the remaining nine boroughs of greater manchester. and also to the north of the city, blackburn and darwen, as well as most of lancashire, including burnley, preston and rossendale. in response, a big campaign of surge testing and vaccinating now under way to try to bring the situation under control, including here in kirklees, in west yorkshire. we've had a hugely positive response. we have done over 2000 tests

through the door knocking within our key priority areas. we have also undertaken around 5000 tests in some key schools where we have seen an increase in cases. that has generated around 175 positive cases and those positive cases we would not have normally found, because they are asymptomatic, and clearly gives us an opportunity to try to kill that chain of transmission. and it does seem the tactics used in bolton over the past month, with the area flooded with testing and people being encouraged to get vaccinated, are working. the infection rates have dropped by a quarter in the past ten days. richard galpin, bbc news. we'll be speaking to the mayor of greater manchester, andy burnham, at around ten past seven. world leaders will shortly be arriving in cornwall ahead of the g7 summit. us presidentjoe biden and german chancellor angela merkel

are among those attending the event, which starts officially on friday, at a luxury hotel near st ives. 0ur chief political correspondent adam fleming is in westminster. what topics do we expect to be on the table? ., , , , the table? there are loads. this is the table? there are loads. this is the first time _ the table? there are loads. this is the first time the _ the table? there are loads. this is the first time the leaders - the table? there are loads. this is the first time the leaders will - the table? there are loads. this isi the first time the leaders will have met since the start of the pandemic so they will talk about recovery from the virus under the slogan of build back better. they will talk about how you deliver the pledge by the prime minister to have the rest of the world vaccinated by the end of the world vaccinated by the end of next year. also lots of discussion about climate change ahead of the next big international summit to the uk will be hosting which will be the united nations sponsored climate change conference in glasgow in november. and lots of stuff about how these democracies copein stuff about how these democracies cope in the modern world when they are faced by competition from countries such as china. to that

end, borisjohnson has invited south korea, south africa, australia and india. that should be more like a g 11, may be. this will be the first time borisjohnson seesjoe biden. the american president has not been complimentary about borisjohnson complimentary about boris johnson over the past couple of years so fascinating to see the chemistry between them and they will meet tomorrow in cornwall before the thing get started.— tomorrow in cornwall before the thing get started. today, the brexit minister lord _ thing get started. today, the brexit minister lord frost _ thing get started. today, the brexit minister lord frost will _ thing get started. today, the brexit minister lord frost will be - thing get started. today, the brexit minister lord frost will be talking i minister lord frost will be talking about the irish sea border. the vice president of — about the irish sea border. the vice president of the _ about the irish sea border. the vice president of the european _ about the irish sea border. the vice i president of the european commission is coming to london to meet lord frost and they will have two meetings back to back. one the first meetings back to back. one the first meeting of the body that oversees the trade deal between the uk and eu, that is not controversial, a bit of housekeeping. really

controversial is the meeting called the joint committee which is a separate body that oversees the separate body that oversees the separate deal done in 2019, the divorce deal. that is more controversial because it considers matters to do with northern ireland. the eu is annoyed because they think the uk is not sticking to the deal and commitments made as part of the agreement of things like customs checks, giving the eu access to databases and things like that. the uk is annoyed with the eu because they think they are interpreting the protocol zealously and they think thatis protocol zealously and they think that is having an effect on trade from great britain to northern ireland, which annoys some parts of the community in northern ireland and the uk, saying it is not in keeping with what is in the brexit deal. it seems familiar to me, to the brexit negotiations, with the same arguments about the same things happening in the same way, even though brexit has happened. here we

no aaain. though brexit has happened. here we go again- thanks- _ the duke and duchess of sussex did not ask the queen about using her childhood nickname lilibet for their new daughter, who was born last week. that's according to a palace source. some media reports had suggested prince harry sought permission from his grandmother, but a royal insider has told the bbc that no such conversation took place. 0ur royal correspondent jonny dymond reports. the name lilibet is heavy with personal history for the queen. it was the nickname her grandfather, king george v, gave her. the name her closest relatives used, the name she used on the funeral wreath for one of her closest friends, earl mountbatten. when it was revealed on sunday that harry and meghan had named their second child, their daughter, lilibet, it was widely presumed they had first spoken to the queen and subsequent stories in the press from friends of the couple strongly suggested that harry had sought permission from his grandmother. a source close to the sussexes told

the bbc that harry had spoken to the queen before the birth of his second child and would have mentioned the name. but a palace source has made it clear this was not the case. the queen, the bbc has been told, was never asked about the use of her childhood nickname lilibet. jonny dymond, bbc news. a group of oxford university students has voted to remove a portrait of the queen from their common room on the grounds that she represents recent colonial history. members of magdalen college voted overwhelmingly for the move, which education secretary gavin williamson described as simply absurd. the president of magdalen said the students don't represent the college. the age limit for buying cigarettes could be raised from 18 to 21. the idea is in a report by mps, published today, which calls on the government to do more to achieve its aim of making smoking obsolete by 2030. 0ur north of england reporter

fiona trott has the details. when i went into that room to have my radiotherapy, i was thinking,"what am i doing to my body? it's burning from inside out." the consequence of a0 years of smoking. sue was treated for cancer of the larynx. it still affects her speech today. the pictures on the cigarette packets, i remember looking at them and, at first, going ugh. and then you get immune to them. you switch off from them, you really do. if the age limit had been 21 when i was 11 buying cigarettes, i wouldn't have ever got cigarettes. here in the north east there are thousands of patients like sue and figures from public health england suggest there are more deaths attributed to smoking in this region than anywhere else in england. it is why consultants like ruth sharrock welcome today's report. she says smoking has caused more damage here, where there are existing health inequalities.

we have always been facing an hard deal in the north east with the burden of smoking—related disease. we have had a high prevalence of smokers across the patch and in communities around the hospital here in gateshead, where the prevalence is 25%, up to 30% in sunderland, and then covid has just grossly exacerbated the problems. the report says schemes to help people stop should be paid for by tobacco manufacturers through a change in the health and social care bill. and, for young smokers, it recommends a consultation on raising the age at which people can buy tobacco from 18 to 21 years old. the fact that this report is out today is getting political attention, is being discussed, can only be a good thing and can't come soon enough for us as clinicians. a government spokesperson said smoking rates were at a record low and it was on track to deliver its ambition to make england smoke—free with the new tobacco control plan being published later this year. what i do want is for my grandchildren to hopefully have a smoke—free environment

to grow up in. with investment, we can do smoke—free in 2030. fiona trott, bbc news, gateshead. adults in the uk are spending more time on the internet than those in any other major european country, according to research by 0fcom. we spent more than three—and—a—half hours online each day in 2020 — more than an hour longer than people in germany and france, and 30 minutes more than those in spain. 0nline shopping sales rose by 50% in the same period, with £113 billion spent. a grandmother is celebrating her 100th birthday with a smile today. she's celebrating it with a hundred smiles, chuckles and hopefully a few laughs. betty freeman is marking her big day by telling 100 jokes on a special twitter page called betty's bants. ben boulos went to meet her. doctor, doctor! you have to help me out, doctor.

certainly. which way did you come in? laughter. you don't get to 100 years old without some laughs along the way and, to mark her 100th birthday, grandma betty is telling 100 jokes on twitter to raise money for her local hospital in barnet, north london. the nhs have been wonderful to me. i have no complaints about them. whatever department i've gone to, i've always been treated with kindness and great care. i think that is one of the reasons why i have reached this great age. how important do you think laughing, sharingjokes, keeping each other�*s spirits up, how important is that? very important, because, don't forget, i came through the second world war. we had to keep cheerful. betty's family are all very proud of her and thrilled by the reaction she has had on line. she has always been a performer and she wanted to do something

for her 100th birthday. she wanted to do something significant. so we went through quite a lot of things of hundreds that she could do. because she has always told jokes and stories, ijust put it to her and she went for it, she absolutely went for it. a pest controller told me that the wooden rafters in my attic are infested with fungus. i want a second opinion, as i think he is talking a lot of rot. and the donations are still coming in. she smashed her target of £500. meanwhile, grandma betty's advice to as all. if you haven't got a sense of humour, what have you got? things in life can be good and they can be bad. but you've got to laugh, because laughter is the best medicine. my grandfather spent 30 years working as an elevator attendant. he said that although it was very uplifting, it has its ups and downs.

ben boulos, bbc news. the best thing about telling me a jokeis the best thing about telling me a joke is you tell me that week later and i will not have remembered it. one of my favourites is the one about in a book shop and the man goes do you have books on turtles? and the person said hardback? and he said yes, with little heads. tell me next week and i will still laugh. we would love to have you sending jokes. laugh. we would love to have you sendingjokes. i laugh. we would love to have you sending jokes. i will laugh because evenif sending jokes. i will laugh because even if you told me ten times. you can email or tweet using the hashtag bbc breakfast. we'll read out a few of our favourites later — so please keep them clean. how is the weather looking? for many, not too bad although the north and west, there is more cloud on this morning it is a mild start in

belfast and liverpool the temperature currently 15 degrees. in the north of scotland, already 17 degrees. it will be humid and as we go through the rest of the week it will be and also by night notjust by day. continuing with the rain in the north and west and some of it will be heavy across the north—west of scotland and the thicker cloud in western england and wales producing drizzle. the brightest guys in central and eastern areas where we hang on to the sunshine. temperatures here up to 26. 15—21 as we push over towards the north and west. if you look at the colours, deep orange and yellow, showing the differentiation in temperatures. i am going to run a sequence overnight and you can see how the dark orange

disappears but we hang on to the light orange and yellow. tonight, it will be humid and it will be warm. quite cloudy also with the rain and drizzle in the far north—west. tomorrow that is how we start the day. cloudy with rain in the north—west. here it will be windy and breezy elsewhere. still brighter spells coming in on the cloud. these are the winds and temperatures. up to 24 are the winds and temperatures. up to 2a degrees. people who rely on part—time work have been most affected by the pandemic and are at risk of being left behind, according to a new report. nina's taking a look at this one for us. what's the issue here, nina? we are seeing a clearer picture of the scarring on the workforce. it's been a bad year for so many of us but if you're a part—time worker you may well have

suffered a lot more than most. good morning from my favourite spot — the bbc breakfast water cooler, where i hover, waiting for the gossip. today's study says that women, people from minority ethnic backgrounds, and younger workers who put in fewer than 35 hours a week have been badly impacted by the pandemic. a quarter of people in the uk work part—time. for many working full—time isn't an option. they may have caring responsibilities, or many of them are working while they study. this report says half of those workers have had their hours reduced or are still relying on furlough. that's compared to a third of their full—time colleagues who have been rapidly returning to the office, and their normal hours. let's go on one of the bestjourneys. from the office to the pub. because part of the reason for this is that lots of part—time jobs are in sectors like retail or hospitality, which, as we know, have been closed for long periods. 0ther part—time work often includes working in schools

or as office assistants — roles that have also not been needed. campaigners say that while the furlough scheme has kept millions of employees injobs, it is also masking big challenges for part—time workers. many of ourjob seekers are telling us that they are feeling very vulnerable, particularly people who work part—time and flexibly. many have been on furlough and have had little contact with their employers about what is happening next. those who have fallen out of work, either because they have been made redundant or they have had to drop out of work, are finding it still really hard to find jobs that are advertised as flexible. and we know that with thejobs market, the recovery picking up, those in more senior roles are able to negotiate flexibility, and more candidates are doing so. but people at the lower end of the labour market working part—time, particularly who have been in these jobs are for many years, really lack the confidence and the ability necessarily to feel

they can ask for flexibility from day one. the government says it is committed to looking at how the way we work has changed during the pandemic. they are considering plans to make flexible working the default. unless employers have good reasons not to. last month, the bbc found almost 50 of the uk's biggest firms said they would embrace a mix of home and office working with staff allowed to work more flexibly. but would that make a difference tobe enough to support the millions of people who rely on working part—time work? if you are a business and contracting, part—time workers are typically the first to go, and also people who work part—time are usually on lower salaries and do not necessarily feel confident enough to make work life balance work for them so it is a tricky time and it could get harder as furlough dries up. cornwall is used to dealing with an influx of tourists

at this time of year — but for the next few days it will be welcoming a very different set of visitors. carbis bay, which is next to st ives, will be hosting the leaders of the world's seven largest advanced economies and keeping them safe is a huge operation. breakfast'sjohn maguire is there to tell us more. good morning. good morning, louise. you will have to trust me on this. that is the bay out there, blending into the sky. the weather has not been the best so far this morning but you are 30 seconds away, i promise you, from great views of cornwall because the last couple of days have been amazing and the weather looks set fair over the weekend. the g7 leaders will be here later. there is a strange atmosphere here. very used to a huge influx of visitors and dealing with the population of this part of west cornwall growing hugely over the

summer, but nothing quite like this. we have found out what has been going into making sure this is not only a successful summit but also a secure one. as the eyes of some of the world's richest and most powerful nations turn to a small cove in west cornwall, an electronic and physical ring of steel is securing the air, the sea and the land. the sites where the leaders will meet are surrounded by metal fences, and the thin blue line, police officers and security guards, are positioned every few metres. armed units provide very visible evidence of the seriousness of this major operation. this is the largest operation devon and cornwall police have ever undertaken. this is the largest event in 2021 within england, so a significant policing operation, but one that we have relished the challenge to plan

and we are in a good position to deliver that. devon and cornwall police are being supported by more than 5000 extra officers from right across the uk. some are being accommodated on this cruise liner moored on the south coast of the county in falmouth. for those living in carbis bay, daily life has started to look very different as the security tightens. as we can see, they have started building and they have nearly completed the ring of steel, so the large black fence that they have erected in front to cut off the hotel and all of the coastal paths from anybody entering. sisters florence and maya live on the hilljust above the bay. i think there has been general disruption and concern over how the town is going to be able to continue working — businesses. i work in a local cafe and my boss is choosing to stay open,

whereas some of his friends who own other businesses have said they can't be bothered with the aggravation and hassle. this is of course a balancing act for the authorities. protecting the vvips and their summit while trying to encourage residents to live life as normally as possible. florence sargent hopes the g7�*s legacy will stretch beyond the conference venues and into some of cornwall�*s deprived areas. we've had a chance to be so involved in everything that is happening but i know a lot of other people, who even if they are living just 20 minutes away, it is really hard to stay engaged with it. so i think it has been great to keep me more politically aware. there are designated protest sites, but they are far from the summit. police say they have trained for all eventualities. we are well planned for peaceful protests and hopefully it will stay at that. we have contingencies and plans that go beyond that, that we can scale up. but, like the pandemic, i would rather engage with peaceful protesters, engaging, explaining, and enforcement is for when it becomes violent.

nobody wants that, least of all the demonstrators themselves. this is a major operation on a narrow peninsula in the summer tourism season and during a global pandemic. the stakes are extremely high, and notjust for the seven leaders who will sit around the summit table here this weekend. this is the main road, with new tarmac and double yellow lines right the way along that leads to the carbis bay hotel where the summit meetings will take place. you can see the fence from the report. lights along the side. police officers and security guards here also. the footpath, you canjust make it out on the other side of the fence. there is a railway line on the other side that leads into st ives, further around the headland, which has been closed. a good deal of disruption over the next two

days. there been a good deal of excitement. we have seen some of the american aircraft, 0spreys flying overhead. not what people are used to seeing here, the kind of thing coming in advance of president biden, who will arrive here for bilateral talks with borisjohnson before the g7 starts. an interesting few days for this part of cornwall. the geopolitics will take the headlines, but for the people living cheek byjowl with world leaders, this is probably a few days they will take a long time to forget. absolutely. john, thanks. hopefully we will get to see a view later. who knows? you're watching bbc breakfast. still to come on today's programme. how do you fancy camping here this summer?

we'll be live at chatsworth house, which is one of the many uk venues hoping to accommodate the surge of domestic holiday—makers in july and august. you have been there quite a few times. i love that place. a wonderful and beautiful place. it does look lovely. they do a jam and cream scone on a different level. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning, i'm sonja jessup. concerns have been raised over the escooter trial by blind and visually impaired londoners because they're currently missing a safety feature which could alert pedestrians they're coming. the trial which allows people to ride a rented scooter on roads in six boroughs began on monday. but the audible safety device won't be installed for at least another two months. if they knowingly released before

accessibility, you know, or things that will help make it a bit more safer, are released before they should have, and something could have been done about it, then, no, ithink everything should have been put in place first before they were released. those running the trial say they are working closely with visually impaired charities to find a solution. a man's been arrested in pakistan in connection with the murder of a london woman who was shot and strangled in lahore last month. mayra zulfiqar�*s uncle alleges zahirjadoon, who's being held by police, and another man had threatened his niece after turning down marriage proposals. mrjadoon�*s lawyer denies his client had any involvement in her murder. london's first dedicated detox unit for the most vulnerable rough sleepers is opening at st thomas' hospital later this month. it aims to save the lives of some of the city's homeless people

struggling with serious alcohol and substance dependency and help support them. it also offers support with healthy eating and their mental health. the tube is all running well — no reported problems so far this morning. pretty quiet on the roads — there's a burst water main being repaired in clapham — the a3 clapham common north side is closed from the high street towards wandsworth. and coldharbour lane is partly blocked between brixton and loughbrouthunction for repairs to a sinkhole. and in enfield: there's one lane closed on the a10 northbound at bullsmoor lane for water works. now the weather with kate. good morning. another warm day in store today but it's starting to feel a little more humid. a beautiful sunrise earlier, this is over in acton from our weather watcher. we have got a little bit of mist over higher ground especially but that will burn back. it's another day of sunshine,

perhaps some fair weather cloud moving in as we head into the afternoon. but the wind is light and temperatures a touch warmer than yesterday at 26 celsius. overnight in it, this is where the humid air really takes hold. quite uncomfortable for sleeping. we'll see the progression of a bit more cloud moving in, that will thicken as we head through to dawn tomorrow. staying dry, though, the temperature however not dropping much below 15 celsius so like i say, not great for sleeping. high pressure stays in charge, there is more cloud around tomorrow and for friday. for tomorrow morning, partial solar eclipse. however, that cloud mightjust get in the way, we could be lucky, you might get one or two breaks in it. temperatures, because of the cloud, perhaps a degree or two cooler but staying warm and warmer still as we head into the weekend. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. hello, this is breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin.

coming up on breakfast this morning. proud sibling alert! we'll be speaking to the elder sister of a british woman who fought off a crocodile which was attacking her twin. the former england defender rio ferdinand willjoin us for a chat about the euros, which are nowjust three days away, and his new effort to tackle the online trolls. we are both excited, clearly! and we'll hear about the drive to get more people from black and minority ethnic backgrounds to donate their stem cells which would help children like ryan to get a second chance at life. let's return to one of our top stories today and those extra measures to suppress the spread of coronavirus in greater manchester and parts of lancashire. 0ur gp this morning is doctor richard bircher, who lives in one of the affected areas, stockport, and his practice is in another, tameside.

good morning, thank you forjoining us. you are right on the front line, tell us what the situation is like right now where you are. you are riaht, right now where you are. you are right, definitely _ right now where you are. you are right, definitely on _ right now where you are. you are right, definitely on the _ right now where you are. you are right, definitely on the front - right now where you are. you are j right, definitely on the front line, we have been on the front line for over a year now. coronaviruses definitely coming back, we received the lab when they are positive and over the last week or so we have seen an increase in positive results. so it is there and that is causing fear amongst the patients. is that affecting, how is that effecting hospital admissions? fist effecting hospital admissions? git the moment, thankfully, the majority of people testing positive are below the age of 50, the majority of them are under 35. so they are thankfully not particularly unwell. they are taking precautions to isolate from other people so at the moment hospital seems to be absolutely fine coping. these new coronavirus diagnoses aren't really causing me

as a gp much work at the moment as we are taking steps to control it and levels are quite low, competitive where they have been. but the john paxton competitive where they have been. but thejohn paxton is under a lot of stress under other work coming our way so any additional work will be felt quite hard. irate our way so any additional work will be felt quite hard.— our way so any additional work will be felt quite hard. we were talking about that yesterday. _ be felt quite hard. we were talking about that yesterday. we - be felt quite hard. we were talking about that yesterday. we know - be felt quite hard. we were talking | about that yesterday. we know that this strengthened package of support is going to be provided for greater manchester and lancashire, what do you make of that and where do you think you need help?— think you need help? well, i think strengthened _ think you need help? well, i think strengthened package _ think you need help? well, i think strengthened package of - think you need help? well, i think| strengthened package of resources think you need help? well, i think. strengthened package of resources is a really good idea, we have the technology now, we know where the virus is, we know which variants are about and we have the immunisation and testing facilities, so why not use them? i think it's a great idea that our area is going to have an increased immunisation rates to control this, that's going to be very popular with the population. and also the testing, we have had facilities locally for a long time where people can just turn up and get a test, that is very important.

0ne get a test, that is very important. one of the most important things is messaging to the population, which is, keep calm. also a very important message is that lateral flow test is really not good enough if you have symptoms. as a gp, i have phone calls from people who have a cough and even one or two coronavirus symptoms and they say they have taken a test and it is a fine. but the lateral flow test is a screening procedure and the proper pcr test makes a diagnosis, so do not rely on the lateral flow test if you have symptoms. the lateral flow test if you have symptoms-— the lateral flow test if you have s mtoms. �* ., , ., ., symptoms. i'm not sure i have heard that before. — symptoms. i'm not sure i have heard that before. so _ symptoms. i'm not sure i have heard that before, so lateral— symptoms. i'm not sure i have heard that before, so lateral flow _ symptoms. i'm not sure i have heard that before, so lateral flow test - symptoms. i'm not sure i have heard that before, so lateral flow test is i that before, so lateral flow test is for more random my checking? yes. for more random my checking? yes, that's mainly — for more random my checking? yes, that's mainly used _ for more random my checking? yes, that's mainly used to _ for more random my checking? is: that's mainly used to check people on a day—to—day basis, i literally did mine as as i was waiting this morning and i do that twice a week to make sure i'm safe. if i have symptoms i have a pcr test which is much more accurate, to make sure i

a few days away. —— the euros a few days away. yes, we are talking about taking the knee, we had from marcus rashford and the england manager, it was categorical they said that they are going to continue. marcus rashford said it's as important as ever with england committed to the gesture at euro 2020. manager gareth southgate, has written an open letter to fans in which he says the players have a responsibility to �*use their voice to raise awareness and educate'. boos were heard as players knealt before both of their warm up matches boos were heard as players knelt before both of their warm up matches last week prompting strong criticism from the players. england face croatia in their first group game on sunday. when you start to do something, you don'tjust... we're notjust going to quit because some people disagree with it for whatever reasons. so that's our thought process behind it, we're going to stick at it, we believe that it's a strong and powerful message. and because we believe that, why would we not do it in a massive european tournament?

if we want to spread a message that we believe is positive, now is probably the biggest and the best time to do it. any england fans attending the croatia game — and every other game at wembley — will be required to show proof of full covid vaccination or a negative test before entry. supporers at hampden park wont face the same protocols. scotland face england next friday at wembley, they're due to arrive at their training base in teesside today ahead of their first match on monday at hampden against the czech republic, who beat albania in a bad tempered warm up last night. wales are at their base in baku, ahead of saturday's opener with switzerland. they've the third youngest squad at the euros. alongside the established names is 21—year—old defender ben cabango preparing for his first major tournament, he watched euro 2016 back home as a fan. yeah, i was in the fan zone in cardiff celebrating the wins,

and obviously how well we've done. but now i'm here, it's just a surreal feeling and i can't wait to get started. it's what i've been aiming forfor a long while and to be here, it's a great feeling. the england and wales cricket board says it will take "relevant and appropriate action" after historical tweets from several more england players emerged. posts from bowler 0llie robinson made several years ago were the first to come to light. he's been suspended during an investigation. the ecb then began looking into reports a second player had posted "offensive material" in his youth and now tweets by eoin morgan, james anderson and jos buttler have been highlighted. as players, we are trying to learn from this, really. we realise it is important to try and get educated around these issues. we are continuing to do that with the ecb,

we have already been doing workshops before this series to try and help improve ourselves as people, basically, to try and make sure that this sort of thing doesn't happen. big day at the french open — novak djokovic and rafa nadal in quarterfinal action and in line to meet each other if they win. missing out is danil medvedev, whose underarm serve on match point didn't fool stafanos tsitsipas, who won in straight sets to reach his third straight grand slam semifinal, he'll face alexander zverev. after being knocked out in the first round, british number onejohanna konta has begun her preparations for wimbledon. her grass—court campaign started with a comfortable win in nottingham, herfirst match in this country since her wimbledon quarterfinal defeat two years ago. it's just a fun surface to play on, it's different, it asks different things of your game. it makes you think differently a little bit. and so it's a really fun challenge and for me, and every other brit, it's extra special. for us, it's a fun surface

and we also get to play at home. let's return to the euros, because there won't be many england and scotland fans who could forget this moment from 1996. and 25 years on from paul gascoigne's wonder goal, there is a ratherfamiliar look about england's potential new midfield star. this is phil foden on the right here. he's unveiled a new bleached blond haircut, that's got everyone making comparisons with gazza's do back at euro �*96. i remember watching highlights on the tv of gazza, unbelievable player. you know, the full nation know what it means for the country and what he did. so, yeah, it wouldn't be too bad if i tried to bring a bit of gazza on the pitch. so you can decide who wore it better but i imagine, if he scores goals

like gazza did at euro 96, comparisons will stretch beyond their hair down. t comparisons will stretch beyond their hair down.— comparisons will stretch beyond their hair down. i am fully in the euro zone- _ their hair down. i am fully in the euro zone. if _ their hair down. i am fully in the euro zone. if you _ their hair down. i am fully in the euro zone. if you fancy - their hair down. i am fully in the euro zone. if you fancy it, - their hair down. i am fully in the euro zone. if you fancy it, there | their hair down. i am fully in the i euro zone. if you fancy it, there is a brilliant documentary on bbc sound, 25 years since the england scotland match since 1996, it is a full hour and it goes to all of the details, not necessarily the players but the people who are there that day, the wembley stadium announcement, the tiny things that went round. a great day of football, for england fans. did went round. a great day of football, for england fans.— for england fans. did they interview gazza's hairdresser? _ for england fans. did they interview gazza's hairdresser? i'm _ for england fans. did they interview gazza's hairdresser? i'm not - for england fans. did they interview gazza's hairdresser? i'm not sure . gazza's hairdresser? i'm not sure that they did! _ gazza's hairdresser? i'm not sure that they did! he _ gazza's hairdresser? i'm not sure that they did! he had _ gazza's hairdresser? i'm not sure that they did! he had a _ gazza's hairdresser? i'm not sure that they did! he had a terrible i that they did! he had a terrible game but scored that amazing girl. i'm very excited about it. == game but scored that amazing girl. i'm very excited about it.— i'm very excited about it. -- that amazin: i'm very excited about it. -- that amazing goal- — i'm very excited about it. -- that amazing goal- i _ i'm very excited about it. -- that amazing goal. i cannot _ i'm very excited about it. -- that amazing goal. i cannot wait - i'm very excited about it. -- that amazing goal. i cannot wait for i amazing goal. i cannot wait for turkey and _ amazing goal. i cannot wait for turkey and italy _ amazing goal. i cannot wait for turkey and italy on _ amazing goal. i cannot wait for turkey and italy on friday, - amazing goal. i cannot wait for i turkey and italy on friday, come amazing goal. i cannot wait for - turkey and italy on friday, come on! we're going to tell you about a lovely little boy now. he's called ryan, he's three years old and he has

a type of blood cancer. a stem cell donor could give ryan the hope of a happy and healthy life but the chance of finding a suitable match are much lower because he is from a minority ethnic background, which is why doctors are desperate to get more donors from black and asian communities. danjohnson went to meet ryan and his mum hannah to find out more. i'm iron man, i'm iron man! this is a strong young man who's held back by a weakness in his blood. three—year—old ryan has a rare condition which means his white blood cells don't work properly. and he's vulnerable to infection. it affects us all the time, he can't go to play areas, he can't go to petting farms, he can't live a normal life like other children, because of this immune deficiency. it's tough. let's see the wigglies. ryan needs regular tests and he's waiting for a stem cell donation. but finding the right match is really difficult. it's like waiting every day, if you're going to get that phone call, to get that match. a part of me feels like,

what if you don't get the transplant and the match? what life will he live? it will be consistent hospital treatments, and panics. a0 miles away in central london, stem cells are being donated. louise is about to change someone's life. i definitely felt like when i signed up that somebody would need this from me. and given that i don't need it, and somebody else does, it's like, it's a no—brainer decision to come and do this, really. this is the stem cell, the product that needs to be transfused to the patients who are waiting for your cells. it's a bit like donating blood, and it takes around four hours to collect the stem cells that someone somewhere desperately needs. this is last chance for patients who need stem cells. and, yeah, hence why they call it day zero, their second birthday,

because hopefully this works and they have a second chance of life. you could be saving somebody�*s life somewhere, somebody you never know, it's very, very specific and it's very special. but there is a challenge getting the right mix of donors. for those from ethnic minority communities, they only have 20% chance of finding a match compared to say someone from a north european background, who's got a a 70% chance. so amongst generally people joining the register, we particularly need people from ethnic minority community to increase their chances. so what would you to say to anyone who's maybe thought about it, got some awareness, but hasn't done it yet? sign up now, it will transform your life, you become a life—saver in waiting, and if you are selected as a match or a potential match, then you have the opportunity to actually save a life. are you ready? and that could make all the difference for ryan. definitely register, because you don't understand how

it can affect someone's life and save their life. when you grow up, ryan, what do you think you might be? i like to put out fire, like, a firefighter. you want to be a firefighter? wow! but if he does get a transplant, how relieved i'd feel, watching him grow up not taking medicine every day, going and doing things with his friends and school without having to worry. good shot! it'll be a massive change, you know, different life, completely different life. and i know every parent says it but my child does deserve to have that better life. whoa, massive. that's a big hit! went miles. i'm good at tennis. you are amazing. dan johnson, bbc news. what a cutie! let's have a look at the weather. carol is having a look, ominous but you have details. there

is alwa s ominous but you have details. there is always something _ ominous but you have details. there is always something positive - ominous but you have details. there is always something positive in - is always something positive in there, come on! there certainly is! if you like the weather warmer, there certainly is! if you like the weatherwarmer, it there certainly is! if you like the weather warmer, it is good for you but it will also be humid by day and night. it is a mild start this morning, some already at 17 degrees, and we will hang the patchy rain in the north and the west and some drizzle. this morning we have a combination, the rain coming in across northern and scotland, and drizzle in the western coastal hills. today we are looking at those temperatures, still humid, 20 or 21 degrees in the west despite all of this cloud. as we move into central and eastern areas, we see some sunshine today, looking at between 23 or 26 degrees. if you have an allergy to pollen, the levels are moderate or high, scotland and northern ireland it is low, and the uv levels are high or very high, in

england and wales. this evening and overnight we get a lot of cloud, pushing across many areas, still some spots of rain and just all around the coasts and the hills. it will not be a cold night, once again it will be quite humid. these are the overnight lows, 11 to 15 degrees. that takes us into tomorrow, we have a weather front starting to come in towards the far north—west of the country, low—pressure to the north and high pressure to the south and you can see the squeeze on the isobars in between. tomorrow it will be more windy in the north and breezy in the south but quite a bit of cloud around, still summer in the west coast. even though there be a lot of cloud, the wind will break out, these are the average speed but the gusts will be up to a0 miles an hour in the north—west, notice a breed in the south. —— a noticeable breeze in the south. —— a noticeable breeze in

the south. —— a noticeable breeze in the south. to produce a little lower tomorrow because of the cloud. into friday, the weather front sinks south taking the cloud with it and some spots of rain, there will be some spots of rain, there will be some cloud around, a breezy day, breaking up this cloud. another humid day following humid night. 13 to 2a or 25 degrees other temperatures. high pressure builds a cross once again at the weekend, settling down, hot and humid for most of us. how does that translate into temperatures? to give you a rough idea, this is it. in the south, not too far off 30 degrees. we could hit 29 somewhere around london. further north, even though we have a blip in the temperatures as the cold front sinks, it will still be warm for the time of year.

thank you, very hot. there are just five days now until we discover if the government plans to stick to its schedule and lift all covid restrictions in england from june 21st. one group of people desperate to see that happen are couples planning to get married. before we speak to some of them, let's get an idea of the scale of the problem. around 50,000 weddings will be in jeopardy if the so—called "freedom day" is postponed beyond june 21st. that's according to the uk weddings task force, which represents the sector. they say they face losses of £325 million for every week of delay and that 300,000 jobs are at risk. let's say hello now to riana evans and bobby easterbrook. they're supposed to be getting married onjuly 3rd having already postponed it once. and we're also joined by claire varcoe, who has been forced to postpone her big day five times.

began on monday. but the audible safety device won't be installed for at least another two months. if they are knowingly released before accessibility, you know, or things that will help make it a bit more safer, are released before they should have, and something could have been done about it, then, no, ithink everything should have been put in place first before they were released. those running the trial say they are working closely with visually impaired charities to find a solution. a man's been arrested in pakistan in connection with the murder of a london woman who was shot and strangled in lahore last month. mayra zulfiqar�*s uncle alleges zahirjadoon, who's being held by police, and another man had threatened his niece after turning down marriage proposals. mrjadoon's lawyer denies his client had any involvement in her murder. now you might remember the stranger danger

campaign from the 19705 to help children stay safe on the streets. now it's been updated as the clever never goes programme. schools across the capital — educating children about things they need to be aware of if they could be at risk or when to ask for help. london's first dedicated detox unit for the most vulnerable rough sleepers is opening at st thomas' hospital later this month. it aims to save the lives of some of the city's homeless people struggling with serious alcohol and substance dependency and also offer support including healthy eating quitting smoking and their mental health. let's take a look at the travel situation now. the tube is all running well— no reported problems so far this morning. pretty quiet on the roads — there's a burst water main being repaired in clapham — the a3 clapham common north side is closed from the high street towards wandsworth. now the weather with kate kinsella. good morning.

another warm day in store today but it's starting to feel a little more humid. a beautiful sunrise earlier, this is over in acton from our weather watcher. we have got a little bit of mist over higher ground especially but that will burn back. it's another day of sunshine, perhaps some fair weather cloud moving in as we head into the afternoon. but the wind is light and temperatures a touch warmer than yesterday at 26 celsius. overnight in it, this is where the humid air really takes hold. quite uncomfortable for sleeping. we'll see the progression of a bit more cloud moving in, that will thicken as we head through to dawn tomorrow. staying dry, though, the temperature however not dropping much below 15 celsius so like i say, not great for sleeping. high pressure stays in charge, there is more cloud around tomorrow and for friday. for tomorrow morning, partial solar eclipse. however, that cloud mightjust get in the way, we could be lucky, you might get one or two breaks in it. temperatures, because of the cloud, perhaps a degree or two cooler

good morning, welcome to breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. 0ur headlines today. minimise travel, increase testing and support from the military — residents in greater manchester and lancashire get extra help to fight a rise in cases of the delta variant. all eyes turn on cornwall as it prepares to welcome world leaders ahead of the g7 summit. the bbc�*s been told prince harry and meghan didn't ask the queen about using her childhood nickname, lilibet, for their baby. the boos will not drown out the message — gareth southgate says

england will continue to take the knee at euro 2020. when the tournament begins in two days' time. doctor, doctor, you have to help me out. certainly. which way did you come in? the grandma celebrating her 100th birthday with 100 jokes to raise money for her local hospital. ain a in the north and west more cloud and drizzle. heavy rain in the far north—west. central and eastern areas seeing sunshine. wherever you are, it will feel humid. more details coming up. it's wednesday the 9th ofjune. our top story. military personnel will be deployed across large parts of north—west england to help roll out a combination of surge testing and faster vaccinations. it's part of an effort to control the spread of the delta variant

of coronavirus, which was first identified in india. the government has also issued new guidance which recommends people meet up outside and minimise travel into and out of the affected areas. richard galpin has the story. in the warm summer sun, people here in manchester looking forward to the possibility of covid restrictions being lifted later this month. but, instead, they face new measures, including advice to avoid meeting indoors and to minimise nonessential travel in and out of the area. this is due to the delta variant spreading fastest in greater manchester and lancashire. some in the hospitality industry say they are going to be hit againjust weeks after reopening. it's notjust accommodation providers but also taxi drivers, we have shopkeepers, souvenir places, musical events, pubs, bars, restaurants, and, as i said before, all the rules are actually specifically don't go in, or do go in. we need more clarity.

the affected areas are bolton, which is already subject to surge testing, and the remaining nine boroughs of greater manchester. and also to the north of the city, blackburn and darwen, as well as most of lancashire, including burnley, preston and rossendale. in response, a big campaign of surge testing and vaccinating now under way to try to bring the situation under control, including here in kirklees, in west yorkshire. we've had a hugely positive response. we have done over 2000 tests through the door knocking within our key priority areas. we have also undertaken around 5000 tests in some key schools where we have seen an increase in cases. that has generated around 175 positive cases and those positive cases we would not have normally found, because they are asymptomatic, and clearly gives us

an opportunity to try to kill that chain of transmission. and it does seem the tactics used in bolton over the past month, with the area flooded with testing and people being encouraged to get vaccinated, are working. the infection rates have dropped by a quarter in the past ten days. richard galpin, bbc news. 0ur reporter dave guest is outside a vaccination centre in manchester for us this morning. how are people responding to this so—called package of support from the government? so-called package of support from the government?— the government? good morning. i think ou the government? good morning. i think you could _ the government? good morning. i think you could forgive _ the government? good morning. i think you could forgive the - the government? good morning. i think you could forgive the people j think you could forgive the people of greater manchester and lancashire waking up this morning and thinking here we go again. part of the world subjected the restrict restrictions —— strict restrictions last year.

they stress it is not a return to a local lockdown but advice from the government to people to be sensible and cautious. as it was said in the report, the approach of surrendering freedoms in return for additional testing and extra vaccinations, that is a system that could bring down the spread of this delta variant that was first identified in india. they say it has been working in bolton and can work elsewhere. we have seen cases of this variant rising in greater manchester and lancashire. ms —— ministers say doing nothing is not an option. hopefully this will bring the rates of this town. the leader of manchester city council said if people have plans they should not undo their plans. andy burnham the mayor of greater manchester said people should go about their lives but remain cautious. take advantage

of extra testing and take up offers of extra testing and take up offers of vaccination because ministers say it is the only true way of getting out of the pandemic. all eyes on gene the 21st, waiting to see if the westminster government proceeds with lifting restrictions across the country on that date. no decision made on that yet —— june the 21st. but trying to get on top of the spread of this variant. in a few minutes we'll be speaking to the mayor of greater manchester, andy burnham. world leaders will shortly be arriving in cornwall ahead of the g7 summit. us presidentjoe biden and german chancellor angela merkel are among those attending the event, which starts officially on friday, at a luxury hotel near saint ives. adam fleming is in westminster this morning. iam sure i am sure you have quite a bit to

johnson is inviting other countries to come along such as south africa, south korea. although the indian prime minister will participate virtually because of the epidemic in his country. this will be the first chance for boris johnson his country. this will be the first chance for borisjohnson and his country. this will be the first chance for boris johnson and joe chance for borisjohnson and joe biden to see each other face—to—face. joe biden has not been complimentary about borisjohnson in the past so interesting to see the chemistry between them. joe biden has a personal interest in ireland and we know he is concerned about what is happening with the brexit deal that relates to northern ireland. ~ , , ., deal that relates to northern ireland. ~ , ., ., ireland. we will see you later on this programme _ ireland. we will see you later on this programme and _ ireland. we will see you later on this programme and you - ireland. we will see you later on this programme and you will. ireland. we will see you later on this programme and you will be | ireland. we will see you later on i this programme and you will be on the beach for the rest of the week. the duke and duchess of sussex did not ask the queen about using her childhood nickname — lilibet — for their new daughter, who was born last week. that's according to a palace insider. a source close to harry and meghan

told the bbc that harry had spoken to the queen before the birth and he would have mentioned the name — but a palace source insisted that was not the case. jonny dymond reports. the name lilibet is heavy with personal history for the queen. it was the nickname her grandfather, king george v, gave her. the name her closest relatives used, the name she used on the funeral wreath for one of her closest friends, earl mountbatten. when it was revealed on sunday that harry and meghan had named their second child, their daughter, lilibet, it was widely presumed they had first spoken to the queen and subsequent stories in the press from friends of the couple strongly suggested that harry had sought permission from his grandmother. a source close to the sussexes told the bbc that harry had spoken to the queen before the birth of his second child and would have mentioned the name. but a palace source has made it clear this was not the case. the queen, the bbc has been told, was never asked about the use of her childhood nickname lilibet. jonny dymond, bbc news.

a group of oxford university students has voted to remove a portrait of the queen from their common room on the grounds that she represents recent colonial history. members of the magdalen college voted overwhelmingly for move, which the education secretary, gavin williamson, described as simply absurd. the president of magdalen said the students don't represent the college. adults in the uk are spending more time on the internet than those in any other major european country, according to research by 0fcom. we spent more than three—and—a—half hours online each day in 2020 — with home shopping and streaming services accounting for much of that time. our technology correspondent rory cellan—jones has been looking at the figures. as the pandemic arrived, life moved online, whether it was exercising via youtube, ordering food via clicks rather than leaving home,

or spending endless hours of video calls when we couldn't work or socialise face—to—face. before lockdown, i was only online very rarely. i do a lot of work on the computer, but i did not do communication online. can you imagine life without it now? no. my daughter lives in france, my son lives in canada. i haven't seen them for obviously 15 months. my daughter had a little boy. i haven't seen her, so we keep in touch with them online and even had quite a big birthday party, that we used zoom for. in 2020, the uk embraced the internet as never before. with the average person spending over 3.5 hours a day online. much of that time was spent shopping. 0nline food and drink sales were up 82% on the previous year. and one of the big winners was tiktok, which had 3 million uk

users six months before the pandemic and now attracts a0 and now attracts 1a million every day. whether it is the morning video call to the grandchildren or updating the online shopping list on a tablet, we have got used to how vital these connected devices can be. we have been spending more time online than the citizens of any other major european nation. but here is the question — is this a permanent change in our habits? i am sure there will be a lasting legacy from lockdown. for example, i suspect business travel might not rise to the same levels that we saw before. we have discovered the technology serves us pretty well. or when it comes to online shopping we have discovered the convenience of having things delivered, but equally, i am sure i am not alone of missing the excitement and energy of being on the high street. even as things gradually get back to normal, the pandemic has accelerated the move online which means technology is playing a bigger part

in our lives for good and ill. here's carol with a look at this morning's weather. it was lovely yesterday and looks like it might be today. good morning. good morning. it will be lovely for some but cloud around for others but all have a mild start to the day. it is quite humid in places with this place in the highlands already 17 degrees. you are getting the picture. we have rain in northern ireland and the north and west of scotland with drizzled around parts of wales and south—west england and north—west england, where the cloud is thick enough. this is pushing northwards and eastwards and the rain in it will wax and wane. we will see

brighter spells in parts of scotland and northern ireland. rain continuing to push up into the northern isles with mist. the west will still be prone to the cloud and coastal mist and hill fog. best of the sunshine in central and eastern areas. 0vernight, cloud around and spots of rain in the west. another system arrives in the far north—west. humid. the overnight lows between 12—16. closer to what we expect almost in daytime temperatures at this time of year. thanks. meet outside, minimise travel and work from home if you can — but there's no need to start cancelling plans. that's the latest message for residents of greater manchester and parts of lancashire,

where covid rates continue to rise way above the average for england. we can speak now to the mayor of greater manchester, andy burnham. good morning. can we start with the extra support, is it needed, is it welcome?— welcome? certainly. certainly needed. welcome? certainly. certainly needed- we _ welcome? certainly. certainly needed. we very _ welcome? certainly. certainly needed. we very much - welcome? certainly. certainly- needed. we very much appreciate the help from the government. it is a reversal of last year. then we had restrictions without support. this is an approach where restrictions are managed nationally through the road map but they are surging support into high case areas. not just the north—west but in other parts of the country as well. in bolton, where we have had high cases, it has worked and cases have come down. no reason not to believe it will not work in the rest of greater manchester and lancashire. we have worked with the government on this and it is a sensible approach we support.

on this and it is a sensible a- roach we su ort. , approach we support. there might be --eole approach we support. there might be people watching _ approach we support. there might be people watching and _ approach we support. there might be people watching and thinking - approach we support. there might be people watching and thinking about i people watching and thinking about trips they might have planned. what is your advice on what they should do, should they go ahead with that if they go to cornwall on holiday, should they still go?— should they still go? people will have to make — should they still go? people will have to make their _ should they still go? people will have to make their own - should they still go? people will. have to make their own judgment should they still go? people will - have to make their own judgment and look at their plans. we would say use common sense. there are things people can do to make things safer. 0nly meet outside, do not take unnecessary trips. people need to adjust plans but they do not need to necessarily cancel them. it would make sense not to set new plans. if you looked at this weekend with the weather looking good in greater manchester which is great, the football coming, we would say minimise the number of people you watch the match with. watch outside if you can. it is that kind of sensible approach we think is right because the public can go and ——

with that. rather than changing at the last minute which caused problems last year. ht the last minute which caused problems last year.— the last minute which caused problems last year. if you were ”lannin problems last year. if you were planning to _ problems last year. if you were planning to go _ problems last year. if you were planning to go outside - problems last year. if you were planning to go outside the - problems last year. if you were | planning to go outside the local area this weekend, would you still go? area this weekend, would you still to? ., , area this weekend, would you still no? ., , ., area this weekend, would you still to? ., , ., , go? people need to review plans. peole go? people need to review plans. people are _ go? people need to review plans. people are not — go? people need to review plans. people are not being _ go? people need to review plans. people are not being told - go? people need to review plans. people are not being told they - people are not being told they cannot. they have to act sensibly. and take sensible measures to manage any risks. ideally, i would say people should not go travelling to all four corners of the uk in the current situation. we are beyond the half term period. if people can, they should stay local but you cannot say stay in greater manchester because where i live people work towards liverpool, warrington. you cannot say they have to put their lives on hold. we were in that position last year which caused challenges. it is about using

common sense and being more cautious, more vigilant. adjusting plans where people need to, but of course getting the jab. i had my second yesterday. i say to all over 50s in greater manchester, please get them done. the second jab gives you more protection against the delta variant. more than doubles it. saying to everyone in line to get the second jab, please get it. you the second 'ab, please get it. you know the second jab, please get it. you know some _ the second jab, please get it. you know some of _ the second jab, please get it. you know some of the _ the second jab, please get it. you know some of the restrictions people in the north—west have lived under much of last year and many months. do you feel this advice feels different to what was going on for much of last year? ht different to what was going on for much of last year?— much of last year? it does feel different- _ much of last year? it does feel different. we _ much of last year? it does feel different. we have _ much of last year? it does feel different. we have worked - much of last year? it does feel| different. we have worked with much of last year? it does feel - different. we have worked with the government and it has been a more managed approach. there is a lot of surge support coming in. there is a caveat i would place on it. i think

what the government needs to do is bring forward vaccine supplies in high case areas. 0ver bring forward vaccine supplies in high case areas. over the next weeks have a vaccination programme in all parts of the country where cases are higher and that would include here. it would be betterfor everyone in the uk because it will stop the spread of the virus. they need is now. it is spreading again in places like this so the vaccination programme can have most impact right now. that is the call we are putting out to the government. it is not about asking for more supplies but bringing forward supplies so we can make a big difference. people are talking aboutjune the 21st. the best way the government could give confidence to that date or shortly after, is to search the vaccination programme in high case areas right now. {in programme in high case areas right now. , , ., . programme in high case areas right now. , , ., i ' , now. on the issue ofjune the 21st of there are _

working for the older age ranges. we are not seeing people going into hospital in the numbers we were. let's stick with what is working and give greater reassurance around the road map by acting more quickly now. are you feeling 0k road map by acting more quickly now. are you feeling ok after road map by acting more quickly now. are you feeling 0k afterjab two? yes. jab one was more difficult, a groggy night, but yes. jab one was more difficult, a qi’oqq)’ night, but nothing yes. jab one was more difficult, a groggy night, but nothing too greggy night, but nothing too difficult. that is why i groggy night, but nothing too difficult. that is why i say please come forward to get it and i say to younger people. vaccination has been opened up to under 30s. if you are enjoying freedom the best way to protect it is to get the jab as soon as you can. but i am 0k today. i will leave the viewer is to be the judge of that, but i do not feel too bad! thank you. we will speak to robert jenrick at 7:30am.

with so many of us giving up on the idea of a foreign holiday this summer, campsite bookings across the uk have surged in the last few weeks. now the owners of some temporary campsites are asking the government to extend their licences into the autumn. 0ur consumer affairs correspondent colletta smith is on the beautiful chatsworth estate in derbyshire. it looks stunning there. it looks stunning there. it is, indeed. good morning everybody and welcome to the peak district. i have some new found friendsjoining me. infact, district. i have some new found friendsjoining me. in fact, they will be neighbours. in a couple of weeks they will be neighbours to campsites growing up here. like a lot of the country this estate will open up to try to accommodate extra campers. they are allowed to do that for a couple of months under government regulations. look at the stunning view. you can hopefully see

right down and may be the house in the far distance. it is an enormous area. but it is notjust massive venues like this that will open their gates to campers this summer but tiny venues, as i found out when i visited a pub down the road. like every landlord, it has been tough for fiona seeing a totally empty pub for so much of the year. she is hoping for customers, and lots of them, over the next few months. but rather than relying on passing trade, fiona has come up with a plan. hi, fiona, nice to meet you. what a gorgeous place you've got here. lovely part of the world. it is. show me around. it is really not glamorous. it is quite simple, but effective. we have toilets that are open all night. we can lock the pub up, but leave the toilets open, and then we have an outside tap. i was amazed. i thought we might get one or two,

maybe injuly, whatever. we have been quite surprised. we have been full every night we have been open. those campers are crucial for fiona. not because of the money they pay to camp, but because of the money they spend in the pub. we have a big expanse we don't really utilise to its best ability. so i thought while we have this option, we would give it a whirl. 0n the other side of the hill, in castleton, the holiday season certainly seems like it is in full swing already. i think it is a great idea, because it is hard to get accommodation in the school holidays. so i think opening up, whilst we have to be in the uk on holiday, sounds a great idea. you are going back to basics, you are outdoors. the children are having new—found freedom and they are interacting. so i think camping is a good idea this summer. i am not a camper. i have only done it once in my life and said never again. _ farmers, pubs and stately homes have joined forces with the camping

website pitch up to ask the government to extend the length of time a makeshift campsite can run from two months to six months. the reason we are asking for it to be extended is because it allows landowners to make the most of the weather. you only have to look out of the window to see the opportunity that is there for the rural economy to recover itself and to really make the absolute most of what is normally a short camping season. a few extra weeks of campers buying more meals and drinking more pints are crucialfor fiona. it is the money that it will generate in the summer to help us through the lean times in the winter. and with such huge demand for camping pitches there should be plenty of business to go round. amazing to see the difference potentially a few campers can make. sally is looking after visitors here. what difference will it make to the business to be able to open

your fields to campers potentially for a longer period rather than the two months the government gives you? it will be important notjust for us but the local economy and tourism and in hospitality. it has been a difficult 18 months and this will start to help that recovery. you do not normally _ start to help that recovery. you do not normally run _ start to help that recovery. you do not normally run a _ start to help that recovery. you do not normally run a campsite - start to help that recovery. you do not normally run a campsite but i start to help that recovery. you do i not normally run a campsite but you are because there is demand. absolutely, and we have amazing views of the peak district and a fantastic location in derbyshire. it is an opportunity that we want to share the landscape with people. tic share the landscape with people. no one will dispute it is absolutely stunning here. an interesting group of businesses signed the letter to the government saying it should be six months that campers are allowed. 0ne six months that campers are allowed. one of the signatories is the national farmers' union, along with the campaign for pubs. tell me why it is important for farmers to have

for at least another two months. if they are knowingly released before accessibility, you know, or things that will help make it a bit more safer, are released before they should have, and something could have been done about it, then, no, ithink everything should have been put in place first before they were released. those running the trial say they are working closely with visually impaired charities to find a solution. a man's been arrested in pakistan in connection with the murder of a london woman who was shot and strangled in lahore last month. mayra zulfiqar�*s uncle alleges zahirjadoon, who's being held by police, and another man had threatened his niece after she turned down marriage proposals. mrjadoon's lawyer denies his client had any involvement in her murder. you might remember the stranger danger campaign from the 19705, to help children stay safe

on the streets. now it's been updated, as the clever never goes programme. the met police will be working with primary schools across the capital educating children about things they need to be aware of, if they could be at risk, or when to ask for help. london 5 first dedicated detox unit sleepers is opening at st thomas' hospital later this month. it aims to save the lives of some hospital later this month. struggling with serious alcohol and substance dependency and also offer support with healthy eating, quitting smoking and their mental health. let's take a look at the travel situation now. the tube is all running well, no reported problems so far this morning. pretty quiet on the roads, there's a burst water main being repaired in clapham, the a3 clapham common north side is closed from the high street towards wandsworth. now the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. another warm day in store today but it's starting to feel a little more humid. a beautiful sunrise earlier,

this is over in acton from our weather watcher. we have got a little bit of mist over higher ground especially but that will burn back. it's another day of sunshine, perhaps some fair weather cloud moving in as we head into the afternoon. but the wind is light and temperatures a touch warmer than yesterday at 26 celsius. overnight in it, this is where the humid air really takes hold. quite uncomfortable for sleeping. we'll see the progression of a bit more cloud moving in, that will thicken as we head through to dawn tomorrow. staying dry, though, the temperature however not dropping much below 15 celsius so like i say, not great for sleeping. high pressure stays in charge, there is more cloud around tomorrow and for friday. for tomorrow morning, partial solar eclipse. however, that cloud mightjust get in the way, we could be lucky, you might get one or two breaks in it. temperatures, because of the cloud, perhaps a degree or two cooler i'm back in an hour.

surge testing, we are going to bring in things like vaccine buses to go into different communities to try and make it as easy and convenient as it can be and that is replicating what we have done with the support of bolton council nearby which has been very successful. bolton sought cases rise in a similarfashion a few weeks ago. huge efforts between the council, the armed forces and ourselves but that under control. there is every reason to believe we can be successful but it is going to be a big effort with the local community in greater manchester. brute community in greater manchester. we have just been speaking to the mayor of greater manchester andy burnham on this programme. he said, if you are looking toward your date ofjune 21, it is surge they need. he is riaht in 21, it is surge they need. he is right in that — 21, it is surge they need. he is right in that we _ 21, it is surge they need. he is right in that we are _ 21, it is surge they need. he is right in that we are essentially 21, it is surge they need. he is i right in that we are essentially in a race and the vaccine role at —— andy burnham said that they needed

surge vaccines. we are vaccinating people as quickly as we can with the supply available to us. we have great news from younger people this week, after opening it up to people in their 20s, week, after opening it up to people in their20s, we week, after opening it up to people in their 20s, we have seen 500,000 young people over 25 coming forward to register within a matter of days, thatis to register within a matter of days, that is great. i would strongly encourage anyone anywhere in the country but particularly as we are talking about greater manchester, in that area, to come forward and get vaccinated, either the second vaccine which is very important to get the delta variant or your first one in those younger age groups. two andy burnham's point about whether we should put more tests into greater manchester, at the moment we will stick with the advice we have received from thejcvi, our advisors, which say it is better to continue to work down the age categories on a national basis, rather than adopt a regional or geographical approach. their advice has served us well so far as a

country. they have the big calls right since the start of the vaccine will not. we will continue with that approach and try to do everything we can to make it as easy as possible for people in greater manchester to get to the vaccine centres and go to the mobile vaccine buses which will be out and about throughout the region over the course of the next few days and weeks. his region over the course of the next few days and weeks.— few days and weeks. his specific oint was few days and weeks. his specific point was about _ few days and weeks. his specific point was about vaccines, - few days and weeks. his specific point was about vaccines, it - few days and weeks. his specific point was about vaccines, it is i few days and weeks. his specific i point was about vaccines, it is just about the numbers of vaccines, you are not about to change or increase that? brute are not about to change or increase that? ~ ., ., ., , are not about to change or increase that? . ., ., ., , ., that? we will not adopt a geographical _ that? we will not adopt a geographical approach, i that? we will not adopt a - geographical approach, where one part of the country gets significantly more vaccines than another. we are doing is putting in many more resources to help the local councils and the nhs in greater manchester to get people to the vaccine centres or bring the vaccine centres to them, so people can get vaccinated as quickly as possible. anyone over the age of 25 can come forward now and get vaccinated so that is the vast

majority of the adult population of greater manchester and the whole country who can now be going online, booking their appointment, getting vaccinated, within the next couple of days. vaccinated, within the next couple of da s. ., vaccinated, within the next couple ofda s. ., ., ., of days. you say you are not taking a geographic— of days. you say you are not taking a geographic approach _ of days. you say you are not taking a geographic approach for - of days. you say you are not taking a geographic approach for people i of days. you say you are not taking | a geographic approach for people in those areas are being told to minimise travel, what do you mean by that? is that that you do not go on holiday to another part of the uk? this isn't the law, this is extra guidance to help people, we are asking people to use a degree of personal responsibility and good judgment in two particular areas. try to restrict the number of times you meet people indoors because we know that that is where the virus spreads easiest, and also, not to travel so much if you can possibly avoid it. we have seen that good judgment being used when people come to their own conclusions as to what that means in bolton with some success and we are asking people to think about that in greater

manchester as they go about their daily lives. this is not a return to local lockdowns for example that we saw last year, it is asking people to exercise a degree of personal responsibility as they go about their lives.— their lives. given what we are talkin: their lives. given what we are talking about _ their lives. given what we are talking about particularly - their lives. given what we are talking about particularly in i talking about particularly in greater manchester and lancashire, how does that change the 21stjune date when lockdown restrictions are meant to be easing? the date when lockdown restrictions are meant to be easing?— meant to be easing? the prime minister is _ meant to be easing? the prime minister is reviewing _ meant to be easing? the prime minister is reviewing the - meant to be easing? the prime minister is reviewing the data i meant to be easing? the prime | minister is reviewing the data as meant to be easing? the prime - minister is reviewing the data as we speak. literally meeting almost every day but the scientific advisers. we set a five week period in which to do that between the different stages of the road map, and that time has proved invaluable because this is quite a complicated and finely balanced decision on this occasion. the data is really still coming in as to the number of cases rising, what is the link, if any between that and hospitalisations, and people becoming seriously unwell? the bolton example is quite

instructive because that shows that although cases arose, it didn't lead to hospitalisations and people becoming seriously unwell amongst the older age groups, it was predominantly amongst those people who were younger who had not been vaccinated at all or who had only had one jab. we don't know for certain whether that is a delayed effect you might see it happening later on, but if that is true, that is positive and suggests that the vaccine is really working, it is disrupting if not even breaking the link between cases and hospitalisations. but the more dated that we can receive and analysing the next few days, the easier it will be for the prime minister to make thatjudgment so i urge people to be patient. i expect the decision point to be on or around the 1ath of june. point to be on or around the 14th of june. ., , ., ., ., ., june. you will be aware that lord andrew lloyd _ june. you will be aware that lord andrew lloyd webber _ june. you will be aware that lord andrew lloyd webber talking -

driven by the data rather than an artificial date. let's see where the data leads us. there are signs of optimism, but it is a finely balanced decision on this occasion. from what he says, he will take a law case. he says he will either go to the law about it or that you will have to compensate them. t to the law about it or that you will have to compensate them. i cannot comment on _ have to compensate them. i cannot comment on andrew _ have to compensate them. i cannot comment on andrew lloyd - have to compensate them. i cannot| comment on andrew lloyd webber's position there, i haven't read all of his comments. i really do appreciate how difficult this is for many people's businesses, and i completely understand the desire of everyone to get the country open again. but what we do not want to do is throw away the gains that we have made as a country, and we are in a race between the virus in the vaccine roll—out. the argument would be, would a few extra weeks by a small time to double vaccinate more members of the public and firstjab

for some other people —— would a small amount of weeks by us some more time?— small amount of weeks by us some more time? you are clearly not able to 'ust more time? you are clearly not able to just give — more time? you are clearly not able to just give us _ more time? you are clearly not able to just give us some _ more time? you are clearly not able to just give us some answers - more time? you are clearly not able to just give us some answers this i to just give us some answers this morning. t to just give us some answers this morninu. .., ., i. morning. i cannot give you the announcement _ morning. i cannot give you the announcement today - morning. i cannot give you the announcement today because | morning. i cannot give you the i announcement today because that is one for the prime minister to make. i would say that the data is coming in and it is a fast—moving situation, so it is right to take that extra few days to make the most considered judgment we can. t want considered 'udgment we can. i want to ask ou considered judgment we can. i want to ask you about _ considered judgment we can. i want to ask you about something - considered judgment we can. i want to ask you about something else i to ask you about something else which you might have seen is on the front page on quite a few papers this morning, we have mentioned it as well, students at an oxford couege as well, students at an oxford college have voted to remove a portrait of the queen from the common room. what is your opinion on that? , ., , common room. what is your opinion on that? , ., i ,, g, that? this really is student union olitics, that? this really is student union politics. and _ that? this really is student union politics, and i'm _ that? this really is student union politics, and i'm not _ that? this really is student union politics, and i'm not going - that? this really is student union politics, and i'm not going to i that? this really is student union politics, and i'm not going to getj politics, and i'm not going to get involved in that. it's their decision, i have a portrait of the queen on my office wall in my government department and i'm proud to do so. . .,

we're notjust going to quit because some people disagree with it for whatever reasons. so that's our thought process behind it, we're going to stick at it, we believe that it's a strong and powerful message. and because we believe that, why would we not do it in a massive european tournament? if we want to spread a message that we believe is positive, now is probably the biggest and the best time to do it. the challenges faced in spreading that message globally illustrated in budapest, the republic of ireland players were booed and jeered by hungarian fans last night before the hosts' finalwarm up game which finished goalless. wales are at their base in baku, ahead their opener with switzerland, they've the third youngest squad at the euros. just eight players survive from that side that made it to the semifinals of euro 2016 in sensational style. gareth bale one of those. the england and wales cricket board says it will take "relevant

and appropriate action" after historical tweets from several more england players emerged. posts from bowler 0llie robinson made many years ago were the first to come to light, he's been suspended during an investigation. the ecb then began looking into reports a second player had posted "offensive material" in his youth and now tweets by eoin morgan, jos buttler and james anderson have been highlighted. as players, we are trying to learn from this, really. we realise it is important to try and get educated around these issues. we are continuing to do that with the ecb, we have already been doing workshops before this series to try and help improve ourselves as people, basically, to try and make sure that this sort of thing doesn't happen. big day at the french open, novak djokovic and rafa nadal in quarterfinal action and set to meet each other if they win. missing out is danil medvedev,

clearly been having a lot of fun researching them. ben boulos went to hear some of betty's banter. doctor, doctor! you have to help me out, doctor. certainly. which way did you come in? laughter. you don't get to 100 years old without some laughs along the way and, to mark her 100th birthday, grandma betty is telling 100 jokes on twitter to raise money for her local hospital in barnet, north london. the nhs have been wonderful to me. i have no complaints about them. whatever department i've gone to, i've always been treated with kindness and great care. i think that is one of the reasons why i have reached this great age. how important do you think laughing, sharingjokes, keeping each other�*s spirits up, how important is that? very important, because, don't forget, i came through the second world war. we had to keep cheerful.

betty's family are all very proud of her and thrilled by the reaction she has had online. she has always been a performer and she wanted to do something for her 100th birthday. she wanted to do something significant. so we went through quite a lot of things of hundreds that she could do. because she has always told jokes and stories, ijust put it to her and she went for it, she absolutely went for it. a pest controller told me that the wooden rafters in my attic are infested with fungus. i want a second opinion, as i think he is talking a lot of rot. and the donations are still coming in. she smashed her target of £500. meanwhile, grandma betty's advice to as all. betty's advice to us all... if you haven't got a sense of humour, what have you got? things in life can be good and they can be bad. but you've got to laugh, because laughter is the best medicine. my grandfather spent 30 years

working as an elevator attendant. he said that although it was very uplifting, it has its ups and downs. ben boulos, bbc news. we asked for yourjokes and you certainly delivered. you are better at telling jokes than me. we have not practised, we should say that. why did the chicken run onto the football pitch? because the referee blew for a foul! we need some sound effects. did you know i'm selling my unused vacuum cleaner? it's just collecting dust. next! why are hairdressers such good drivers? because they know all the shortcuts.

robertjenrick said and have spoken to the mayor of greater manchester. what have they both been talking about? ~ . , what have they both been talking about? ~ ., , ., , , what have they both been talking about? . ., , ., , , , ., about? what is happening in greater manchester is _ about? what is happening in greater manchester is they _ about? what is happening in greater manchester is they are _ about? what is happening in greater manchester is they are using - about? what is happening in greater manchester is they are using the - manchester is they are using the playbook used in bolton where there was an uptick in cases of the delta variant of covid first identified in india and the playbook is more information and guidance and testing and a load of resources to help eligible people get vaccinated and urging people who are eligible for a second dose to get that. there is something more andy burnham the mayor of greater manchester once which is more doses of the vaccine. people are talking aboutjune the people are talking about june the let. people are talking about june the zist the — people are talking about june the 21st. the best way the government could _ 21st. the best way the government could give — 21st. the best way the government could give confidence tojune the let could give confidence tojune the zist or— could give confidence tojune the zist or a — could give confidence tojune the 21st or a date shortly after is to surge _ 21st or a date shortly after is to surge the — 21st or a date shortly after is to surge the vaccination programme in hi-h surge the vaccination programme in high case _ surge the vaccination programme in high case areas and to do it right now _ high case areas and to do it right now. ., �* , , .,

our reporter dave guest is outside a vaccination centre in manchester. tell us how people have reacted to the guidance coming in?— the guidance coming in? possibly across greater _ the guidance coming in? possibly across greater manchester - the guidance coming in? possibly across greater manchester and i across greater manchester and lancashire there is a feeling of deja vu with this part of the world restricted strictly under the system last year but local politicians stressing we are not returning to a local lockdown. this is people asked to voluntarily forego some of the freedoms granted a few weeks ago as they try to get on top of the uptick in the covid variant, the delta variant discovered in india. there has been an increase in greater manchester and lancashire and they are saying do not travel outside your area unnecessarily, work from home when you can, and mix outdoors rather than indoors. this is a

system tied in with a surge in testing and tracing people and crucially an increase in the vaccination programme. this centre is one of many that will open later this morning. because ministers hammer home the message the only way of getting out of the pandemic is to get everybody vaccinated and double vaccinated as quickly as possible. the race against the vaccine and virus. the mayor andy burnham said people should continue their everyday lives and be sensible and cautious. he is asking the government to increase supply of vaccine so the affected areas can get the vaccination programme wrapped up as much as possible. thanks. a group of oxford university students has voted to remove a portrait of the queen from their common room on the grounds that she represents recent colonial history. members of the magdalen college voted overwhelmingly for the move, which the education secretary,

gavin williamson, described as simply absurd. the president of magdalen said the students don't represent the college. customers who were refused a refund from their airline last year even though they were not allowed to travel because of government guidelines could be due their cash back. nina's got more on this breaking news for us. what's going on here nina? interesting news in the past hour. we had so many e—mails about this last year. you'll remember last year thousands of flights were cancelled leading to a lot of disappointment. on the whole, refunds were issued if not always on time. but things got complicated when flights continued to leave the country, while the government had banned us from travelling for leisure. that led to some airlines, including ba and ryanair, to refuse refunds, offering instead to rebook or take vouchers. now the competitions and markets authority, which keeps an eye on whether businesses are following the law, has looked at whether the airlines broke consumer legislation.

in their words, "while we understand that airlines have had a tough time, people should not be left unfairly out of pocket for following the law. customers booked these flights in good faith and were legally unable to take them due to circumstances entirely outside of their control. we believe these people should have been offered their money back." in the last half hour ryanair has responded, saying they welcome the review and they have been offering refunds on a case by case basis. ba, meanwhile, have gone on the attack, saying this is punishing an indistry already on its knees, that they have acted lawfully, and that any action against them will, "destabilise the industry, with consequences for jobs, business, connectivity and the uk economy." this will all come down to whether consumer law was followed, and the watchdog does have the power to escalate this through the courts if there isn't an agreement. so for people in that category, do

not expect cashback overnight. it looks like there is a greater chance of getting it back. the age limit for buying cigarettes could be raised from 18 to 21. the idea is contained in a report by mps, which calls on the government to do more to achieve its aim of making smoking obsolete by 2030. it also says tobacco manufacturers should pay for projects to help people stop, particularly in communities where smoking does most damage. a herd of wild elephants has become china's newest internet sensation as millions of people track its journey across the country. the animals have covered more than 300 miles in 15 months roaming through towns and cities as well as rural areas causing damage costing hundreds of thousands of pounds. scientists say it's unclear why the herd left its home back in march 2020. understand why you would want to keep an eye on that, safety and

where will they end? before we get the weather from carol, let's see how it's looking at the chatsworth house estate in derbyshire. it looks absolutely beautiful there this morning. would you like a fact? i love chatsworth and will accept a fact. there is a fountain in the garden called the emperor fountain and there is an amazing engineer called joseph paxton who designed it in the 18505, he built the great exhibition hall at crystal palace —— called crystal palace in 1851. it was built for necklace i who never got to see it. the fountain went 90 metres in the air. the biggest fountain in the world, in chatsworth. we are there because they are opening up campsites there but first

as we will in north—east england. it is the west that hangs on to cloud and drizzle, at times. the midlands, eastern england, east anglia hanging onto sunshine. overnight there will be cloud across us by the end of the night. in the west, rain. a new weather front across the northern and western isles. a humid night. temperatures not falling away too much. a warm night. tomorrow, we start on a cloudy note. still drizzle in parts of the west. the weather front making slow progress. it will be gusty in the far north and breezy in the south. a high of 22 tomorrow. i am off to look at fountain facts. look it up, emperor fountain, chatsworth house. thank you.

recovery. pass on our love to your sisters and family. gosh. cornwall is used to dealing with an influx of tourists at this time of year, but for the next few days it will be welcoming a very different set of visitors. carbis bay, which is next to st ives, will be hosting the leaders of the world's seven largest advanced economies and keeping them safe is a huge operation. breakfast�*sjohn maguire is there to tell us more. when we spoke tojohn earlier we could not see the bay because of the cloud. it is still not there. you know what i mean! good morning. iam know what i mean! good morning. i am envious of those around the country where you have blue skies. it has been like this the past couple of days and will be in a couple of days. we are 30 seconds away from beautiful shots of cornwall, don't worry. this is the main entrance to the carbis bay

hotel which is the summit headquarters where the key meetings will take place between leaders. these metal fences have appeared around carbis bay on the way into st ives. and police officers there. there is normally a coastal footpath which has been closed off. the railway line beyond the fence that goes into st ives has been close. there will be road closures, restrictions, check points. this is a very large security operation, especially for the local police force, whose numbers this weekend are in excess of 6000. as the eyes of some of the world's richest and most powerful nations turn to a small cove in west cornwall, an electronic and physical ring of steel is securing the air, the sea and the land. the sites where the leaders will meet are surrounded by metal fences, and the thin blue line, police officers and security guards,

are positioned every few metres. armed units provide very visible evidence of the seriousness of this major operation. this is the largest operation devon and cornwall police have ever undertaken. this is the largest event in 2021within england, so a significant policing operation, but one that we have relished the challenge to plan and we are in a good position to deliver that. devon and cornwall police are being supported by more than 5000 extra officers from right across the uk. some are being accommodated on this cruise liner moored on the south coast of the county in falmouth. for those living in carbis bay, daily life has started to look very different as the security tightens. as we can see, they have started building and they have nearly completed the ring of steel, so the large black fence

that they have erected in front to cut off the hotel and all of the coastal paths from anybody entering. sisters florence and maya sargent live on the hilljust above the bay. i think there has been general disruption and concern over how the town is going to be able to continue working — businesses. i work in a local cafe and my boss is choosing to stay open, whereas some of his friends who own other businesses have said they can't be bothered with the aggravation and hassle. this is of course a balancing act for the authorities. protecting the vvips and their summit while trying to encourage residents to live life as normally as possible. florence sargent hopes the g7�*s legacy will stretch beyond the conference venues and into some of cornwall�*s deprived areas. we've had a chance to be so involved in everything that is happening but i know a lot of other people,

who, even if they are living just 20 minutes away, it is really hard to stay engaged with it. so i think it has been great to keep me more politically aware. there are designated protest sites, but they are far from the summit. police say they have trained for all eventualities. we are well planned for peaceful protests and hopefully it will stay at that. we have contingencies and plans that go beyond that, that we can scale up. but, like the pandemic, i would rather engage with peaceful protesters — engaging, explaining, and enforcement is for when it becomes violent. nobody wants that, least of all the demonstrators themselves. this is a major operation on a narrow peninsula in the summer tourism season and during a global pandemic. the stakes are extremely high, and notjust for the seven leaders who will sit around the summit table here this weekend. there is a lot to consider. the chief inspector is with us this morning. when you sit down and plan

something like this, the government says they want to do it in carbis bay, what are your considerations? it starts with the core responsibilities of policing which is the safety and security of the event. we work with the government, the foreign & commonwealth office and office and cabinet office to make sure we can ensure that not just delegates are safe but also the community and the partners. also that we can deliver normal policing, which we are able to do during this event. a large piece of the work is the logistical challenges. cornwall is a beautiful part of the country, it is logistically challenging. to make sure we work with the community so they understand what is going on and we minimise disruption. it is so they understand what is going on and we minimise disruption.- and we minimise disruption. it is an enormous amount _ and we minimise disruption. it is an enormous amount of— and we minimise disruption. it is an enormous amount of officers, i enormous amount of officers, including those supporting youth from across the uk. booth? including those supporting youth from across the uk.— including those supporting youth from across the uk. why so many? 6500 officers _

to bring the g7 summit to cornwall was to make the most of beautiful views. they do exist. you saw them in the film. the leaders will see them towards the end of the week. it is clearing slightly. back to you. i know those views. they are out there somewhere. we have rio ferdinand on the way between now and 9:15am talking about his campaign to challenge online hate. and we will talk about the start of the euros. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning, i'm sonja jessup. concerns have been raised over the safety of the e—scooter trial by blind and visually impaired londoners because the vehicles are currently missing a feature which could alert pedestrians they're coming. the trial, which allows people to ride a rented scooter on roads in six boroughs, began on monday. but the audible safety device won't be installed

for at least another two months. if they are knowingly released before accessibility, you know, or things that will help make it a bit more safer, are released before they should have, and something could have been done about it, then, no, ithink everything should have been put in place first before they were released. those running the trial say they are working closely with visually impaired charities to find a solution. a man's been arrested in pakistan in connection with the murder of a london woman who was shot and strangled in lahore last month. mayra zulfiqar�*s uncle alleges zahirjadoon, who's being held by police, and another man had threatened his niece after she turned down marriage proposals. mrjadoon's lawyer denies his client had any involvement in her murder. you might remember the stranger danger campaign from the 19705, to help children stay safe on the streets.

now it's been updated, as the clever never goes programme. the met police will be working with primary schools across the capital educating children about things they need to be aware of, if they could be at risk, or when to ask for help. london 5 first dedicated detox unit for the most vulnerable rough sleepers is opening at st thomas' hospital later this month. it aims to save the lives of some of the city 5 homeless people struggling with serious alcohol and substance dependency and also offer support including with healthy eating, quitting smoking and their mental health. travel now. the tube is all running well, no reported problems so far this morning. pretty quiet on the roads, there's a burst water main being repaired in clapham. the a3 clapham common north side is closed from the high street towards wandsworth. now the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. another warm day in store today but it's starting to feel a little more humid. a beautiful sunrise earlier, this is over in acton from our weather watcher.

we have got a little bit of mist over higher ground especially but that will burn back. it's another day of sunshine, perhaps some fair weather cloud moving in as we head into the afternoon. but the wind is light and temperatures a touch warmer than yesterday at 26 celsius. overnight in it, this is where the humid air really takes hold. quite uncomfortable for sleeping. we'll see the progression of a bit more cloud moving in, that will thicken as we head through to dawn tomorrow. staying dry, though, the temperature however not dropping much below 15 celsius so like i say, not great for sleeping. high pressure stays in charge, there is more cloud around tomorrow and for friday. for tomorrow morning, partial solar eclipse. however, that cloud mightjust get in the way, we could be lucky, you might get one or two breaks in it. temperatures, because of the cloud, perhaps a degree or two cooler but staying warm and warmer still as we head into the weekend. i'm back in half an hour. now though it's back to dan and louise.

dropped another hint that the lifting of england's remaining covid restrictions may be postponed beyond june 21st. the communities secretary robert jenrick told breakfast that the decision was "finely balanced" and will depend on the data. he was after new guidance was given to people in greater manchester and lancashire along with more resources for testing and vaccination. let's have a quick reminder of the situation there. extra testing has been taking place in bolton for the last month. that will now be extended to cover all ten boroughs of greater manchester. in lancashire, blackburn and darwen isjoined by most of the county including burnley, preston and rossendale in receiving extra support. let's speak to lancashire's director of public health, dr sakthi karunanithi whojoins us from preston this morning. thank you for being with us this morning. can i ask first of all about the point that the communities secretary robertjenrick was making about the 21st ofjune, how do you see that date now?— see that date now? yeah, the situation we _ see that date now? yeah, the situation we are _ see that date now? yeah, the situation we are facing - see that date now? yeah, the situation we are facing is i see that date now? yeah, the situation we are facing is the l see that date now? yeah, the i

situation we are facing is the same variant affecting different parts of the country differently. almost ten fold variation in case rates. the same vaccine, but the uptake is so variable since the day we gave the first dose to margaret keaton. it varies from 20% of people having double doses to 70% of people across different authorities. and then an escalating situation in terms of highly transmissible virus, i think we need to tread carefully in unlocking further, just say that we do it to say nibley and don't have the prospect of going back in again. —— we do it sustainably and don't have the prospect of going back in again. so we need to have something which is across the country not having different places treated differently. having different places treated differentl . . , . having different places treated differently-— differently. that is a national decision. _ differently. that is a national decision, these _ differently. that is a national decision, these decisions i differently. that is a national decision, these decisions are differently. that is a national i decision, these decisions are being taken in greater manchester and ta ken in greater manchester and lancashire taken in greater manchester and lancashire at the moment, though. do you think they are anathema, the

encouragement —— do you think they are enough, the encouragement to not travel, the support of the military? i think it is good that the support is there and not sanctions. hindsight helps, what we are doing locally is to really improve the uptake of testing, so testing becomes more part of our normal routine, test and go and apply that covid sense. as well as bringing vaccines closer to people through walk—in centres and pop—up clinics, that seems to be going down very well with our residents and they are very much coming forward for second doses as well. so that's what we're doing to prevent the situation from further escalating in lancashire. speaking to the mayor of greater manchester andy burnham, i don't know if you saw sir richard luce from the health and care partnership in your area, they both talked about common sense in continuing with

plans over the next few weeks but also not to cancel plans. how do you manage that personally and what would your advice be for those watching this morning? i would your advice be for those watching this morning?- would your advice be for those watching this morning? i think we have grown _ watching this morning? i think we have grown during _ watching this morning? i think we have grown during this _ watching this morning? i think we have grown during this pandemic| watching this morning? i think we i have grown during this pandemic from just using common sense to applying covid sense, as we call it. so hands, face and space, hand washing particularly, but also testing whenever we are going. that's two things we can all start to do and integrate with our planning with whatever we're doing, so it's more about responsibly doing our bit in keeping the county and the country safer. that's what we're saying to local people. there is no local lockdown or travel restrictions but apply covid sense, test wherever you 90, apply covid sense, test wherever you go, get yourjabs and that is a sustainable way out of this. and also indoor mixing and international travel, we have known across the time that those are the two key risks, and those other things we are trying to address the fundamental

areas. ~ . . trying to address the fundamental areas. . . ., areas. what about hospitalisation rates? i don't _ areas. what about hospitalisation rates? i don't know— areas. what about hospitalisation rates? i don't know whether i areas. what about hospitalisation rates? i don't know whether you | areas. what about hospitalisation i rates? i don't know whether you have the latest figures or when they are from but what are they telling us about what is happening, particularly in your area? we are certainly seeing _ particularly in your area? we are certainly seeing cases _ particularly in your area? we are certainly seeing cases going i particularly in your area? we are certainly seeing cases going up i particularly in your area? we are | certainly seeing cases going up in hospitals, they tend to be younger, and it is again a function of perhaps not having had two doses of fast enough. but they are not growing faster like we have had in the last couple of waves. however, this isn'tjust about covid demand in hospitals and the local nhs. we are going to waiting lists and people are taking time off staff who have not had time off in the last more than a year, so if you put all that together, and we also start to see what we normally wouldn't see in this season, some winter bugs in the season. so we can't really increase demand on the nhs at the moment. and that's the rationale and the reason

for why we all need to get tested regularly so we keep ourselves away from the general public in that sense and prevent transmission, as well as get double doses of the vaccine which is the sustainable way of dealing with this pandemic. we need to learn to live with the virus, viruses and bacteria, they arrived before us and will probably be there after humanity and so we therefore need to get a sense of living with this virus.— therefore need to get a sense of living with this virus. good to talk to, looks living with this virus. good to talk to. looks like _ living with this virus. good to talk to, looks like a _ living with this virus. good to talk to, looks like a lovely _ living with this virus. good to talk to, looks like a lovely day - living with this virus. good to talk to, looks like a lovely day there, | to, looks like a lovely day there, enjoy the sunshine, dr sakthi karunanithi, thank you forjoining us. the excitement in the studio is quite something! it's now less than three days until the start of the euros but much of the build—up to england's tournament has been dominated by the issue of racism and the abuse of players. it'5 it's two days, isn't it? it's only because i have got a wall chart at home! the ex—england and manchester united defender rio ferdinand understands the pressures both on and off the field and he's involved in a new campaign

we're going to tell you about a lovely little boy now. he's called ryan, he's three years old and he has a type of blood cancer. a stem cell donor could give ryan the hope of a happy and healthy life, but the chance of finding a suitable match are much lower because he is from a minority ethnic background — which is why doctors are desperate to get more donors from black and asian i'm iron man, i'm iron man! this is a strong young man who's held back by a weakness in his blood. three—year—old ryan has a rare condition which means his white blood cells don't work properly. and he's vulnerable to infection. it affects us all the time, he can't go to play areas, he can't go to petting farms, he can't live a normal life like other children, because of this immune deficiency. it's tough. let's see the wigglies. ryan needs regular tests and he's waiting for a stem cell donation. but finding the right match is really difficult. it's like waiting every day,

if you're going to get that phone call, to get that match. a part of me feels like, what if you don't get the transplant and the match? what life will he live? it will be consistent hospital treatments, and panics. ito miles away in central london, stem cells are being donated. louise is about to change someone's life. i definitely felt like when i signed up that somebody would need this from me. and given that i don't need it, and somebody else does, it's like, it's a no—brainer decision to come and do this, really. this is the stem cell, the product that needs to be transfused to the patients who are waiting for your cells. it's a bit like donating blood, and it takes around four hours to collect the stem cells that someone somewhere desperately needs. this is last chance for patients who need stem cells.

and, yeah, hence why they call it day zero, their second birthday, because hopefully this works and they have a second chance of life. you could be saving somebody�*s life somewhere, somebody you never know, it's very, very specific and it's very special. but there is a challenge getting the right mix of donors. for those from ethnic minority communities, they only have a 20% chance of finding a match compared to say someone from a north european background, who's got a 70% chance. so amongst generally people joining the register, we particularly need people from ethnic minority communities to increase their chances. so what would you to say to anyone who's maybe thought about it, got some awareness, but hasn't done it yet? sign up now, it will transform your life, you become a life—saver in waiting, and if you are selected as a match or a potential match, then you have the opportunity to actually save a life. are you ready? and that could make all the difference for ryan.

definitely register, because you don't understand how it can affect someone's life and save their life. when you grow up, ryan, what do you think you might be? i like to put out fire, like, a firefighter. you want to be a firefighter? wow! but if he does get a transplant, how relieved i'd feel, watching him grow up not taking medicine every day, going and doing things with his friends and school without having to worry. good shot! it'll be a massive change, you know, different life, completely different life. and i know every parent says it but my child does deserve to have that better life. whoa, massive. that's a big hit! went miles. i'm good at tennis. you are amazing. dan johnson, bbc news. what a lovely little boy. thank you to hannah — what a lovely little boy. thank you to hannah and ryan for sharing their
