hello and a very warm welcome. we are along the coast were boris johnson has to open the g7 summit. mrjohnson predicted that the leading economies would bounce back from the covid—i9 crisis but he urged his counterparts to learn from the mistakes of the pandemic and speaking of the start of the first in person meetings for nearly two years, the prime minister stressed ensuring the recovery of all parts of society. coronavirus vaccinations and climate change will also be high on the agenda in the gallery over the weekend and in the last half hour, queen elizabeth, prince charles and the duchess of cornwall and prince williams and the duchess of cambridge, three generations of the royalfamily have of cambridge, three generations of the royal family have all arrived for two nights reception. this report from our political editor. getting to this beautiful and remote

part of the country isn't easy. they've come from five continents to cornwall. the winding last mile of the journey of the most powerful leaders in the world ended on the beach. thejohnsons, the british receiving line. coronavirus kept prime ministers and presidents and millions of us apart, but now the prime minister wants them to pull together, with a huge vow for a billion vaccines so the world can gather again. 0fficial hellos done, time for vital talks behind closed doors. thank you all very much for coming, it is genuinely wonderful to see everybody in person. we're building back better together, and building back greener, and building back fairer, and building back more equal and, how shall i... in a more gender—neutral and perhaps a more feminine way, how about that? a reference to getting more girls into

classrooms in developing countries. make the world a better place. that's the g7 theory, at least. the first lady and the duchess of cambridge descended on the four and five—year—olds of connor downs academy in hayle today. unusually, the royal family part of this week's political push. and downing street reckons they have sailed over the first big hurdle, rebooting the so—called special relationship between the united states and the uk, with a new name for a new chapter too. so it's the relationship, we call it the deep and meaningful relationship, the indestructible relationship. it's a relationship that has endured for a very long time and has been an important part of peace and prosperity, both in europe and around the world. and when it comes to the vaccine, you are making a huge promise about 100 million, but in the next few weeks, the uk is only sending 5 million. you could already have sent vaccines

to developing countries, that hasn't happened. isn't there a danger you are talking big, you are making big promises but, actually, you then deliver something else? with great respect, laura, i think the people of this country should be very proud that of the 1.5 in doses that are being distributed around the world to the poorest and neediest in the world, one in three come from the 0xford—astrazeneca deal that the uk did. yes, we are putting in 5 million doses by september, but we will do 100 million before 12 months is out. that's a huge number of extra doses. i think people do understand that, they also understand that the uk is spending £10 billion on overseas aid. yes, it is still a lot of money, but you are cutting it and you're notjust cutting it, you're going back on something that was in the conservative manifesto. that you promised

the public he would do. and i think people will understand that there is a pandemic, which could not have been foreseen at the time we made that commitment to 0.7 throughout this parliament. that's one of the objections from outside. there are a few small, but noisy, bands of protesters who have made it to the fringes of the summit. and trouble looms on a different front too. the uk is not at the eu table any more, but the others still huddled together, with intense tension over how brexit has affected northern ireland, plotting, perhaps, how to take on borisjohnson on that tomorrow. that is a side bar to the main business, though. a commitment to big democracies working together. the multilateralism, the german chancellor says, has gone missing in recent years. the final agreement on sunday may fall short of boris johnson's ambition, but the summit itself is a symbol to show these leaders want to stand together.

world leaders have pledged to donate 1 billion covid—19 vaccinations to those that are unable to fully vaccinate. this team has come to a village in kenya. but the problem isn't so much getting out doses, but getting hold of them the first place. to have any chance of getting even a fraction in this country immunised by the autumn. �* , this country immunised by the autumn. �* ., autumn. african needs another 225 million doses. _ autumn. african needs another 225 million doses. this _ autumn. african needs another 225 million doses. this will— autumn. african needs another 225 million doses. this will really - million doses. this will really require a massive effort as early projections indicate that without a significant boast tag make boost and

doses of vaccine which were going to the international effort. i do not think they were part of whatjoe biden was talking about over the past few days, but he does confirm that there were capacity problems of people were talking about in the g7 leaders of been talking about and is notjust leaders of been talking about and is not just about the pledges comments are producing the vaccines and it just isn't there. let me bring you some pictures from the eden project where the g7 leaders will be in the company of three generations of the royal family company of three generations of the royalfamily and there, company of three generations of the royal family and there, you see those jam bio domes that contain the biggest indoor rain forests. but we look at those pictures because are looking for a family photograph that will come together on the police states that you see, let it speak the diplomatic correspondent who was with me. it is extraordinary that you can see those giant domes and think that this was once an old clay pit. think that this was once an old clay it. , ., , ., pit. yes, we were there with a young man named —

president of france and he said he is truly terrifying. he is a socialist in the republic and he went to the area and they go out to see her and not him and you always have a great difficulty knowing what conversation you will have with the queen but you will respect the history and obviously, she is a crucial part of britain. so, they will enjoy this photo opportunity this evening and while looking at the stage, you need a wide—angle lens of the mum because every personals the beach today and socially distant because it was a covid—19 safe summit. before we saw the leaders, i was just going to say from a briefing with antonio gutierrez that all the focus today on this billion vaccine pledge, billion doses, does he think it's enough? billion doses, does he think it's enou~h? ., billion doses, does he think it's enou~h? . . , billion doses, does he think it's enou~h? ., ., , ., , enough? know he does not. he says very clearly — enough? know he does not. he says very clearly that _ enough? know he does not. he says very clearly that what _ enough? know he does not. he says very clearly that what it's _ enough? know he does not. he says very clearly that what it's been - very clearly that what it's been announcer will be announced at the end of the summit is very welcomed.

that was his phrase, but more needs to be done. he wants there to be a new vaccine, global vaccine task force set up, when together all of the nations that have all the know how, technology, all this pharmaceutical industries to share the information and provide notjust that information but also the technical support and give it to the rest of the world. waivers of all those patent rules, the americans is that they're willing to do this, the french that they're willing to do this. german and are reluctant. and fiercely complicated. you get into trade rules and things like that and the lawyers get involved. but what is going to be interesting is what south africans say. the south african president has arrived here in cornwall this evening and he has

been part of an initiative saying that we need to waive all of these rules to get more know to developing countries so they can develop these vaccines by themselves. it will be very interesting to hear and see what message they bring to the summit when they take part in the next few days. summit when they take part in the next few days-— next few days. covering with you ruickl , next few days. covering with you quickly. the _ next few days. covering with you quickly, the japanese _ next few days. covering with you quickly, the japanese and - next few days. covering with you quickly, the japanese and said i quickly, the japanese and said tonight that is the delegation and they said they expect them to share they said they expect them to share the idea and support the olympic effort. borisjohnson is been quite quiet about that for us on domestic political reasons. ihe quiet about that for us on domestic political reasons.— political reasons. he did meet the ja anese political reasons. he did meet the japanese prime — political reasons. he did meet the japanese prime minister- political reasons. he did meet the japanese prime minister today - political reasons. he did meet the japanese prime minister today in l political reasons. he did meet the i japanese prime minister today in the olympics came up and i'm just going 0lympics came up and i'm just going to read you the words from the official hand—out that the prime minister express to support us to make sure that the games can take place safely. t make sure that the games can take place safely-— place safely. i think total vaccination, _ place safely. i think total vaccination, those - place safely. i think total

new york defence attorney and legal analyst. let's get a full report about borisjohnson was talking about. is the spot where a 19—year—old harry dunn was fatally injured after his motorbike was in a collision with the car. the life of the us intelligence officer, she flew out of the uk days later claiming diplomatic immunity from prosecution. mr dunn's family was left without answers and bid a transatlantic route between the closest of allies. but now, are the signs of progress at the highest levels of government was met during the first face—to—face meeting of the first face—to—face meeting of the g7, mrjohnson raised the case with the new president. he is actively engaged _ with the new president. he is actively engaged in _ with the new president. he is actively engaged in the - with the new president. he is actively engaged in the case | with the new president. h2 3 actively engaged in the case and as you know, he has his own personal

to strip preferred diplomatic immunity and wave it. but the debate question is whether it actually happened. i don't see that happening. the laws the law and it's pretty clear. if this is a unique situation because she falls under diplomatic immunity from two different levels because there was an argument that she was just a family member and there was an argument that she was a us intelligence officer as well. i was people were stripping people of the diplomatic community if they committed a crime those outside of the scope of their employment. but, ironically, that did not extend to family members and so, if her husband had diplomatic immunity and she was there is the wife, then the law is on point i believe, and i believe that the uk said the same thing as well that the time of the offence, she had the privilege of

diplomatic immunity.— diplomatic immunity. clearly, a different attitude _ diplomatic immunity. clearly, a different attitude from - diplomatic immunity. clearly, a different attitude from the - diplomatic immunity. clearly, a. different attitude from the white house to the the donald trump approach this. harry dunn �*s mother talked about how difficult it was when she was in another room and they felt they had been railroaded into something which actually in the end did not go ahead. here, you have a much more sympathetic character and joe biden because of what he's been through. t and joe biden because of what he's been through-— been through. i agree. i do agree with the family _ been through. i agree. i do agree with the family that _ been through. i agree. i do agree with the family that that - been through. i agree. i do agree with the family that that must - been through. i agree. i do agree l with the family that that must been a horrible situation to walk into the being prepped emotions are going everywhere and the resulting materialises and while there is a different approach and joe biden, it can mainly be a different bedside manner. the diagnosis is still the diagnosis but it's just one physician said to you in a nice way to make you feel better about what

largest accountancy firms, we are identifying the roadblocks to sustainable growth and the practical solutions which would shift them out of the way. to give them practical example of how the government business partnership models deliver success. back in 2014, offshore wind was described as the most expensive way of delivering the most marginal impact on climate change. the technology existed, but it was a risky venture. yet today, offshore wind is an essential part of our energy mix. the transformation happened because government sends a clear market signals through its climate change commitments and regulations. finance had the confidence to invest and this

allowed business innovation to improve the turbines in response to demand. meanwhile, consumers benefit from green energy and falling prices. 0nly from green energy and falling prices. only through this sort of government and business coalition can be once again literally but the wind in our sales and win the battle against climate change across all sectors. from agriculture to aviation from fossil fuels. and the scale is immense and the opportunity to tackle it is closing extremely fast, business leaders working through my market initiative of the past 16 months have helped us develop a road map offering practical steps on where we need to go and crucially, how to get there.

in all our work, three powerful messages from businesses stand out. first, industry and finance need clear market signals, standards and regulations in order to provide the essential conditions to enable the more rapidly to re—orientate the representations and make the required transitions. —— operations. financial institutions need better ways to leverage public funding and to catalogue private funding a calculated risk and a transformative outcome will require a pipeline of fully developed and genuine sustainable products at sufficient skills and for investment. at roundtable meetings, we have met with commonwealth leaders from africa, asia and the caribbean and the pacific we have identified large

financial gaps for green energy, water, sanitation, transport and other transitional infrastructure. so, thank you ladies and gentlemen for giving us your precious time for the short meeting and i can only hope it will be possible to work together towards the g20 and 26 and together towards the g20 and 26 and to match trillions of dollars with sustainable investments to deliver 1.5 degrees or better still, less than that. i know the prime minister would like to say a few words and perhaps we can turn to the ceo of the bank of america brand who cochairs the markets initiative with me and is nearly finished completely in the last 16 months to offer a brief private sector perspective.

applause your royal highness. we appear to have lost the feed there and we will see if you can pick up that interview a little later but prince charles really suggesting his own road map of where the g7 countries need to go and how they will deliver the targets that they will deliver the targets that they have set themselves and of course, he has been a passionate campaigner on these issues and before it even became the critical issue that it is today and he is not really speaking about isolation when he sets out the road map because he has 300 ceos behind him who are part of his sustainable market initiative and assessing to james just a little earlier, he was withjohn kerry in the us climate envoy last night with

the us climate envoy last night with the president of 26, the us climate change that takes place in glasgow later and they are carefully but deliberately putting together a plan that will ensure that the promises that will ensure that the promises that are made here are actually translated into things that are deliverable and so, prince charles setting off the proceedings at the eden project this evening. you are watching bbc news and i'm christian fraser in cornwall over the british from mr borisjohnson has formally opened the g7 summit. world leaders begin theirfirst in over two years with thoughts on the coronavirus pandemic. we need to make sure that we learn the lessons from the pandemic. need to make sure that we don't repeat some of the errors

that we doubtless made. as we have seen, the queen, prince charles and other senior members of the royalfamily have charles and other senior members of the royal family have joined the vips at a reception at the world's largest rain forest, the eden project. the distribution of vaccines is high on the agenda, with an expected place to provide at least 1 an expected place to provide at least1 billion doses to poor countries in the next year. leaders and their partners have been attending this evening reception at the eke out visitor attraction the eden project, hosted by the queen and prince charles. i am eden project, hosted by the queen and prince charles. iam in eden project, hosted by the queen and prince charles. i am in london. also in the programme, world leaders discuss vaccines in the uk, the number of new cases rises above 8000 for the first time since the end of february. health leaders are urging the government to delay lifting more restrictions. and the wait is almost

overfor restrictions. and the wait is almost over for football fans.
