this is bbc news, i'm victoria derbyshire. here are the headlines... covid disruption at the euros — england find out this morning if two of their players are available for tonight's game against the czech republic — both are self—isolating after coming into contact with scotland's billy gilmour, who's tested positive. white working class pupils have been failed by decades of neglect in england's education system — according to mps. on course for an end to lockdown in england onjuly the 19th. the health secretary says the covid data looks good at the moment. i hope that we can take the steps on the 19th ofjuly that are pencilled in for them, because the data is looking encouraging. under—18s who want nude pictures or videos of themselves removed from the internet, can now report the images through an new online tool.

why are benefits stopped sometimes for people who are terminally ill? we'll talk to one woman whose mother weighed three stone when she died from cancer and she'd had her benefits removed and the australian government criticises a proposal to list the great barrier reef as �*in danger�* — the un says not enough has been done to protect the reef from climate change. the good news, england are through to the knock—out stages of the euros because results went their way last night. the disruptive news is that two of their players came into contact with scotland midfielder billy gilmour, who's tested postiive for covid and so are isolating.

england are through to the last 16 of the european championships but scotland must win against croatia at hampden park this evening. john mcmanus reports. fierce opponents in their national shirts, but friends and club mates after the final whistle. england's ben chilwell and mason mount were seen interacting with scotland's billy gilmour at the end of the match at wembley, and it's understood they spent more time chatting in the tunnel. gilmour�*s now tested positive for covid—i9. he'll miss scotland's must—win game against croatia tonight. and chilwell and mount are in doubt for tonight's outing against the czech republic, as they self—isolate as a precaution. none of gilmour�*s team—mates will be doing the same — a fact which did not escape england coach gareth southgate. i don't want to cause a drama for scotland, but if you're all in the dressing room together, where does everything stand? so, it's... yeah, i don't know, is the honest answer to that. our medical people are
9:03 am
dealing with all of this. after monday's results, england are guaranteed a place in the last 16 of euro 2020, but will go through as group d winners if they win against the czech republic. the entire squad had lateral flow tests on monday, which were negative. the scottish fa say that public health england decided that no other scotland players, apart from gilmour, had to self—isolate. but public health england said they hadn't held detailed discussions with the scottish football authorities. a real blow. and if billy gilmour's out now, of course, you have to think, who's he been mixing with? will we get any further news that he's been mixing and close by some other players, and they might be testing positive and might have to self—isolate, as well? covid—i9 has hit other teams in the tournament, and it may yet prove more damaging still. john mcmanus, bbc news.

he was substituted, then pictures emerged from their training base, with gilmore playing table tennis alongside the scotland captain andy robertson and john mcginn. but, again, none have been described as close contacts, despite scotland being in consultation with nhs england. that is a big question. but there is no doubt that billy gilmour will be a huge mess for scotland against kureishi and that must win match. ,,. , against kureishi and that must win match. , a, ,., against kureishi and that must win match. , match. sally, mason mount was excellent on _ match. sally, mason mount was excellent on friday _ match. sally, mason mount was excellent on friday night. - match. sally, mason mount was excellent on friday night. you i match. sally, mason mount was - excellent on friday night. you would have thought he would have been in the england team tonight, although england are through. ben chilwell, less so. do you know why they are having to isolate? what have england said? ~ , ., ., , having to isolate? what have england said? ~ , . . , said? well, it is a really good question. _ said? well, it is a really good question, victoria. _ said? well, it is a really good question, victoria. if- said? well, it is a really good question, victoria. if you - said? well, it is a really good i question, victoria. if you watch closely— question, victoria. if you watch closely what gareth southgate said last night, i think he may be... what _ last night, i think he may be... what is — last night, i think he may be... what is the _ last night, i think he may be... what is the word i would use? bemused _ what is the word i would use? bemused about the situation as well. we are _ bemused about the situation as well. we are waiting, we are told there will be _ we are waiting, we are told there will be updates today. we know that the england camp are in close

course. what is your theory of how billy gilmour tested positive, and the rest of the scotland squad don't need to isolate, but a couple of players he was apparently close to in the england squad do have to isolate? ~ . in the england squad do have to isolate? ~ , ., , isolate? well, it is an interesting one, isn't isolate? well, it is an interesting one. isn't it? _ isolate? well, it is an interesting one, isn't it? how— isolate? well, it is an interesting one, isn't it? how he _ isolate? well, it is an interesting one, isn't it? how he got - isolate? well, it is an interesting one, isn't it? how he got the - isolate? well, it is an interesting | one, isn't it? how he got the virus in the first place remains to be seen. the international teams, i would imagine they are a closed bubble, completely closed to anyone outside of that bubble, therefore, how did he get it? a lot of people might be saying is it a false positive is to mark but i should imagine they would be doing lateral flow tests, ensure that lateral flow test be positive, they would follow that up with a pcr antigen test. i'm assuming that was therefore positive, and it calls into question his contacts. according to public health england and the government guidance that we have been following over the last 12—18 months, that
9:12 am
timeline goes back to my co—days prior to either the indexed patient having symptoms or indeed testing positive. —— it goes back to eu days. we go back to the friday night match with england. and i think the fa have made the decision to isolate chilwell and mount, based on the images that were shown on tv that night. images that were shown on tv that ni . ht. ., ., images that were shown on tv that ni. ht, ., , images that were shown on tv that niuht. ., , ., ., , night. so, teams would have been briefed by uefa, _ night. so, teams would have been briefed by uefa, wouldn't - night. so, teams would have been briefed by uefa, wouldn't they, i briefed by uefa, wouldn't they, about the exact protocols to follow? yes. this is the point i made earlier, i think that uefa, you would have thought the who and public health england, all of the health bodies throughout england, would have come to some consensus over what happens when a player tests positive. they couldn't have assumed that someone wouldn't test positive. there would always be a possibility, particularly with the emergence of more strains that could
9:13 am
potentially be more virulent over the coming few months, that players would test positive. so, i don't know whether there is, but is there a procedure in place for what happens now? of course, we are all very used to being contacted by the 3pp, very used to being contacted by the app, being a contact of someone who test positive, and the implications there have been for many months, for families and businesses up and down the country. so, it is interesting to see the decision that the fa made, and i would be interested to know the discussions that have taken place between the fa, the scottish fa and public health england. thank ou for fa and public health england. thank you for talking _ fa and public health england. thank you for talking to _ fa and public health england. thank you for talking to us. _ white pupils from poorerfamilies have been let down by "decades of neglect" in england's education system, according to a report from mps.
9:14 am
the chair of the education select committee, conservative mp robert halfon, described it as a national scandal. the government said it was committed to making sure no child was left behind. our education correspondent, branwenjeffreys, has this report. harry now runs a successful vintage clothes business. but after school, he did one low—paid job after another. unless you've been given an opportunity or you've got a family that can help you out, you're going to be stuck in those jobs, literally. just dead ends, do you know what i mean? i was never going to go anywhere. terrible wage. and i always knew i kind of had to have my fingers in other pies. i always had to do something else on the side to make extra money. relentless hard work means harry has his own shop. but mps say others are let down by a system that sees only poverty, not place or circumstance. if it was just about poverty, why is it that other ethnic groups on free school meals outperform white working—class pupils on free school meals? you're saying to poor white communities, who are struggling,
9:15 am
who are underperforming compared to every other — almost every other — ethnic group, you're saying they are people of white privilege. this report calls for a fundamental rethink in what schools and education deliver for white working communities, because, as it spells out, for decades there's been evidence that too many children have had their life chances limited by what they see around them, what they're able to experience by the place that they grew up in. it's really important that children appreciate their heritage. claire runs schools across mansfield. they offer basic skill courses for parents, but start shakespeare at primary level. if you want to break that cycle of third, fourth generation unemployment, you need to bring your parents and your community with you. the traditional academic route absolutely has a place. but i do think that there needs to be a rethinking around what education is for.
9:16 am
their secondary school has kept many practical subjects. mps say this is crucial. for all the pupils here, school is just one influence. i feel like a lot depends on your family, what your family has done previously, and if you want to follow what they've done. i've never had a person - in my family go to university. so it would be a big step, and it's quite a big - thing on my shoulders. this school is trying to teach future skills. the government says it's levelling up, increasing technical education. but the real test will be if these pupils get good jobs when they leave. branwen jefferys, bbc news, mansfield. matt hancock has told the bbc this morning that the daters look encouraging for a further planned easing of restrictions in england on
9:17 am
july the 19th. he was asked if this could risk further lockdowns in future. i hope we don't have to do that. i hope we can take the steps on the 19th ofjuly, pencilled in for them, because it is look encouraging. for winter, i hope with a booster shot we get a protection against covid very, very high, we are getting over 95% protection against dying from covid from two jabs. a very high protection against hospitalisation, one of the reasons the hospitalisation numbers are up, barely rising at the moment, they are rising, but not fast. and then get the booster to increase that even more. and get the flu jab, to a very, very wide proportion of people, and the combination of all of those things, i hope, will give us protection. nicola sturgeon is expected
9:18 am
to confirm a delay to the easing of coronavirus restrictions in scotland. the first minister indicated last week that the move to the lowest level in scotland's five—tier system was likely to be pushed back by three weeks. restrictions had been due to be eased onjune the 28th. patients in england will get easier access to their own medical information under government plans. the new system would allow people to use nhs apps to renew medications, check test results and speak to health and care staff. ministers say the scheme will give patients more control over their data. a planned roll—out of a digital database of medical records was delayed earlier this month following concerns over a lack of public consultation — with critics worrying the data could be misused and the plan hasn't been properly explained. government borrowing fell last month as the easing of lockdown restrictions, and the reopening of shops and hospitality venues helped to improve the public finances. but it was still the second highest may borrowing on record. for more on this let's speak
9:19 am
now with our business presenter, ben thompson. so, what were the figures? yes, victoria, good morning. these do give a snapshot of how the economy is faring, as it emerges from various restrictions over the past year. you're absolutely right, the latest figures tell is what happened in may, and it paints a picture of an economy that is on the mend. borrowing fell in may, versus the same month last year. of course, may of 2020 was in the midst of the first lockdown, and therefore the finances were pretty dreadful. as the economy now starts to recover, business cards to reopen, we all get back out spending, the public finances are looking a little better. let me show you the graphs that put this into a bit of context. hopefully you can see on this first one the figure for may, showing borrowing. following is the difference between what the government owns in things like taxes and other revenues, versus what it has to pay out on public spending, particularly things like job support
9:20 am
schemes and business loans right now. that came in at {24.3 billion, and that is £19 billion lower than the same time last year. that gives you a sense of may versus may. but if we put it into context of the previous decade, you start to get a sense of why 2020 has been so bad for our public finances. the government, borrowing nearly £300 billion in the year to march. you will see how it compares to previous years, still the highest ever level since the end of world war ii. now, what does that mean for debt, the amount of money that we owe is a country? it means that government debt over the year hitting £2.2 trillion. that is 99% of gdp, the value of everything that we do in the economy, that is a level not seen since the 1960s. here is the good news, there is a hope that
9:21 am
things start to get better as businesses start to open and the economy starts to function more normally again. it means that the government has to pay less out in terms of things like furlough to keep the economy propped up. and shoppers are paying more in tax, be that income tax, vat or otherwise. so it could give the chancellor a little bit of breathing room, and hopefully that could mean that he can delay may be tax rises or spending cuts that were talked about in the spending review. they may be put off for a little while until we start to get a clearer picture of what this pandemic is meant for our finances as a country.— finances as a country. thank you very much- _ nominations will close today for the leadership of the democratic unionist party in northern ireland.

then assess that, and if it is a criminal image we will apply digital fingerprints, and use that digital fingerprint, not the image, to go out and find duplicates. and the reason this is absolutely ground—breaking is that it is the first time in the world that young people have been able to do that, in a safe and confident way, and know that they are not going to be criminalised in the process. because we have the support of the home office, of the police. and what we want to do is give young people hope, not make them scared that somebody is going to... that they are going to get in trouble. that would be the — are going to get in trouble. that would be the key _ are going to get in trouble. that would be the key thing that might stop them coming forward and getting in touch with childline, and hitting the report remove bit of the website. when you say you will assess that and see if it is a criminal image, what do you mean? what is a criminal image? the criminal image, what do you mean? what is a criminal image?— what is a criminal image? the iws deals with child _ what is a criminal image? the iws deals with child sexual _ what is a criminal image? the iws deals with child sexual abuse - deals with child sexual abuse images, they are clearly defined under uk law. when you send a nude image through to us, we look at it
9:25 am
and assess that in terms of categorisation, according to uk law. if it meets the threshold, we get it removed. so, they have to be sexualised images for us to be able to do that. so if you have shared a naked image of yourself, then that would meet the threshold and we would meet the threshold and we would have not removed if you are under 18. we have to ensure, at the moment we have to verify your age, but obviously it is the start of something really important. we are working very hard to make sure it gets easier and easier for young people to self refer. i think the key thing here is that everybody has got together to try to make this happen. we know that for young people, that can just be the most appalling thing to have, that knowledge that the images out there being shared. and for whatever reason that they shared them, they might have shared them willingly, they might have been groomed into having images and videos taken, whatever reason, they are victims in this and we need to do everything we can to protect them and to get those
9:26 am

9:27 am
are very, very easily tricked or encouraged into doing this. so we have to do everything we can blame the children, and say, look, this is a major problem. we've seen 170% increase this year alone, this calendar year alone. and we have to do something together to get the message out to children, to find ways build their resilience do not share those images, but if they have, to not blame them and to help them to get those removed. goad them to get those removed. good luck, them to get those removed. good luck. thank _ them to get those removed. good luck. thank you — them to get those removed. good luck, thank you very _ them to get those removed. good luck, thank you very much - them to get those removed. good luck, thank you very much for- luck, thank you very much for telling us about it. thank you. and thanks to your dog as well. bumble, the dating app where women are in charge of making the first move, has temporarily closed all of its offices this week to combat workplace stress. its 700 staff worldwide have been told to switch off and focus on themselves. the move was praised by its head of editorial content, clare o'connor, as the company taking a much—needed break. i'm nowjoined by sir cary cooper. its a great idea, it is an employer
9:28 am
recognising the hard work of the employees over the past 15 months. many of us have been working longer hours than we did pre—covid. no commute time, working substantially from home, and we are tired. people are exhausted. it's a recognition by an employer. and we need more of that by employers. in mental health is a big issue. people have suffered dramatically, the ons, the office of national statistics, did a study in the middle 2020 showing that 63% of people felt exhausted, tired, anxious, and there is a lot of evidence that mental health of people has been dramatically affected during this period of time. employees have been working... i've heard government saying get back to work, as if people haven't been working. people happy working longer hours and they have not had any commuting time. and also they felt a job and secure and people have been furloughed, which means that the remaining people had heavier workloads. so for an employer to

9:31 am
spells, pleasant in the sunshine with highs of 20 degrees, already the clouds thickening across western scotland, the west of northern ireland, introducing rain. this evening and overnight that will sink south eventually getting into northern england, north west wales, i had a bid some clear skies. cooler night across the south compared to last night, milder night in the north compared to last night. tomorrow this band of cloud and patchy rain continues to sink south, some hill fog and coastal mist in the west, sunny skies across the far south and south—east, and here the highest temperatures, getting up to 21 degrees, in the north its 17 — 19. hello, this is bbc news with victoria derbyshire. the headlines... england find out this morning if two of their players are available for tonight's game against the czech republic. both are self—isolating after coming into contact with scotland's billy gilmour, who's tested positive. white working class pupils have been
9:32 am
failed by decades of neglect in england's education system — according to mps. england remains on course for an end to lockdown onjuly the 19th — the health secretary says the covid data looks encouraging at the moment. under—18s who want nude pictures or videos of themselves removed from the internet can now report the images through an new online tool. and the australian government has criticised a proposal to list the great barrier reef as �*in danger�* — the un says not enough has been done to protect the reef from climate change. sport and time for a full round up from the bbc sport centre. here's sally. good morning. welcome to wembley, the scene of england �*s game tonight. if they win
9:33 am
the match tonight they will top their group, but all eyes are on scotland, they have to beat croatia at hampden park tonight. but as we've hearing, they'll be without midfielder billy gilmour. he's tested positive for covid 19. jane dougall reports. a clip into the back for o'donnell. scotland should be going into the match tonight basking in the glow of their goalless result across the old enemy. adams is in on it. but the confidence gained from drawing against a country for the world points above them has been dealt a blow. billy gilmour ends his evening. billy gilmour, player of the match for the england game testing positive for coronavirus, and he will not be available, devastating for the squad but also for the 20—year—old. he’s devastating for the squad but also for the 20-year-old._ devastating for the squad but also for the 20-year-old. he's upset, as ou for the 20-year-old. he's upset, as you would — for the 20-year-old. he's upset, as you would expect. _ for the 20-year-old. he's upset, as you would expect. no _ for the 20-year-old. he's upset, as you would expect. no symptoms. i you would expect. no symptoms. hopefully his health will hold up,
9:34 am
and he will get back to playing as quickly as possible. obviously it's a blow for us in terms of the team but a chance for someone else. this could be scotland _ but a chance for someone else. this could be scotland 's most important could be scotland �*s most important game in decades. croatia will be a tough side to beat and a victory is what scotland need. no one else has tested positive and public health england has advised the scottish football association that no other members of the squad must self—isolate. it's encouraging for steve clarke but with one of his best players unavailable, he still has a selection headache. so england are guaranteed to reach the last 16. a victory over the czechs at wembley would mean they top the group. but they could be without ben chilwell and mason mount who are self—isolating as a precaution after coming into close contact with billy gilmour after that game with scotland.
9:35 am
speculation they chatted more in the tunnel after the match. olly foster reports. mason mount and ben chilwell were among the first to congratulate the chelsea team—mate after the match last friday but after taking part in training yesterday, the pair who have returned negative tests over the past 48 hours were informed that they would help to self—isolate, their participation in the final group game tonight is up in the air. we have to accept whatever the situation is and adapt to it, that's the world we are all living in across every family and across every sport and every business.— sport and every business. tonight, with or without _ sport and every business. tonight, with or without them, _ sport and every business. tonight, with or without them, it _ sport and every business. tonight, with or without them, it is - sport and every business. tonight, with or without them, it is down i sport and every business. tonight, with or without them, it is down to business again at wembley. a convincing win against the czech republic would go a long way to putting the poor performance against scotland behind them and that would also see england top the group, that sounds like a good thing but
9:36 am
probably isn't! that's because their next match will be against france, germany or cristiano ronaldo �*s portugal, what a test that will be but gareth southgate knows better than to look that far ahead, first things first. taste than to look that far ahead, first things first-— things first. we are playing a totally different _ things first. we are playing a totally different team, - things first. we are playing a totally different team, the i things first. we are playing a - totally different team, the czech republic, we have huge respect for them. the coach has done a fantastic job there, very dangerous team. we have concentrated on preparing for the next challenge. ibts have concentrated on preparing for the next challenge.— the next challenge. as england try and find the _ the next challenge. as england try and find the spark _ the next challenge. as england try and find the spark to _ the next challenge. as england try and find the spark to get _ the next challenge. as england try and find the spark to get them - the next challenge. as england try i and find the spark to get them going again, the czech republic caught fire very early in the tournament thanks to three goals for one player, one of them so special. england who are already through to the last 16 after last night �*s result would take any type of goal as long as it is a winning one! as of this morning here at wembley we are awaiting an update from the football association on the status of the players who are in self isolation at the moment and of course, the big question, will they
9:37 am
have to remain in isolation several days or might they be in the care? we will wait and see. that's all the sport for now. thank you. cruel and inhumane". that's how some mps describe the benefits system for people who have been diagnosed with a terminal illness. they're particularly angry at the so—called six—month rule. they say it means terminally ill people who are expected to live longer than half a year can have their benefits stopped. the marie curie end—of—life charity estimates that 100 dying people are rejected for support each month. in 2019, the government announced a review but it still hasn't been published. so today, some of those mps have written to the disability minister, justin tomlinson, demanding action. in a moment, we'll talk to one of those mps. but first, let me introduce you to michelle mccluskey. michelle has asked us to show a picture of her mum. it's a distressing picture which shows her when she was very ill.
9:38 am
michelle says this was her late mum, christine mccluskey, at about the time of her department for work and pensions assessment for benefits. michelle says her mum died of cancer weighing just three—and—a—half stone and endured the nightmare" of having her benefits stopped. good morning, michelle. good morning. what happened in the case of your mother? llrlul’hat good morning. what happened in the case of your mother?— case of your mother? what had actually happened _ case of your mother? what had actually happened was - case of your mother? what had actually happened was she - case of your mother? what had actually happened was she was | case of your mother? what had - actually happened was she was moving from disability living allowance to personal independence payments which triggered a face—to—face assessment. that assessment was carried out in april 2018 and she was basically, her benefits were stopped, she was awarded the maximum points which
9:39 am
meant she didn't qualify for any kind of personal independence payment so that stopped and we went to managerial reconsideration again, that was refused, and then we went to a full on tribunal, infirmary 2019, she was awarded maximum points for the daily living and mobility element of personal independence payment but it was too late because she had passed in the september 2018. ., ., y ., she had passed in the september 2018. ., ., _, ., she had passed in the september 2018. ., ., ., ., 2018. how do you feel about that? i'm ve 2018. how do you feel about that? l'm very angry. _ 2018. how do you feel about that? l'm very angry. very _ 2018. how do you feel about that? l'm very angry. very angry. - 2018. how do you feel about that? i'm very angry, very angry, at - 2018. how do you feel about that? | i'm very angry, very angry, at what she was put through, but i was put through, what the whole family was put through. this is the reason why i have decided to do this, since my mother passed i have not stopped writing to mps, dry to put in a complaint to the independent assessment services, and basically, ijust assessment services, and basically, i just got absolutely nowhere, nobody should be made to go through
9:40 am
the assessment and be totally, just humiliated, it's awful. i mean, when that assessor went into my mother �*s home in april 2018, my mum had a long history of illness, like crohn's disease, she had had a stroke, small gut syndrome, various other things. stroke, small gut syndrome, various otherthings. but stroke, small gut syndrome, various other things. but she was actually assessed in 1986, and 2002, she was classed as 80% or more disabled. that obviously, that of lord went on for life, it says on the letter, but then obviously, changing from disability living allowance to personal independence payment it generated this face—to—face assessment which did not go in her favour at all. flip assessment which did not go in her favour at all-— favour at all. pip stands for personal— favour at all. pip stands for personal independence - favour at all. pip stands for- personal independence payment, favour at all. pip stands for— personal independence payment, why did the department for work and pensions stop your mother �*s benefits? i pensions stop your mother 's benefits?— pensions stop your mother 's benefits? ., ., ,, ., .,

9:43 am
consultant, she got referred to radiology for a scan so in the middle ofjuly, she was diagnosed with double lung cancer. right? we then got a form that the gp fills in saying that somebody has got six months or less to live. that was dated the 14th of august. that letter, that form, but submitted to the department for work and pensions undertook them a them a month, a month to reply, the date that letter it got issued to my mother was the day my mother died. so there is no fast track, even without form, form should automatically have reinstated whatever benefits she was stopped and to top it all off, they actually issued her a fixed penalty notice. what? fit. issued her a fixed penalty notice. what? �* issued her a fixed penalty notice. what? ~ , ., , ., . issued her a fixed penalty notice. | what?_ for what? a fixed penalty notice. for what? because _
