6:01 am
the queen of new york. britain's teenage tennis sensation emma raducanu is through to the semi—finals of the us open. i didn't expect to be here at all. i mean, i think my flights were booked at the end of qualifying, so... it's a nice problem to have! frustration for england as they drop their first points in their world cup qualifying campaign. despite this stunning strike from captain harry kane, poland rescued a late draw in warsaw. and after the sunshine and heat it's all about the storms over the next few days. scattered thunderstorms arriving and it will turn fresher. i will have a full forecast here on breakfast. it's thursday the 9th of september. our top story. boats carrying migrants across the channel from france could be turned back at sea, in new tactics authorised by the home secretary, priti patel. the move is set to be opposed by the french authorities, who describe
6:02 am
the technique as dangerous, and a breach of maritime law. simonjones has this report. more than 1,500 migrants have reached the uk by boat this week alone. britain says the numbers are unacceptable — france, unsatisfactory. a meeting between the home secretary and her french counterpart, gerald darmanin, yesterday was described as constructive, but failed to agree new measures to prevent the crossings. now priti patel plans to use so—called push—back tactics to force boats back into french waters — in limited circumstances, and only when it's considered safe to do so. it's a technique that's controversially being used by the australian authorities, who towed migrant boats back to indonesia, saying it helped restore the integrity of their borders. critics claim it's damaged the country's reputation. the british government says it needs to use every possible tactic at its disposal to tackle the vile trade in people—smuggling, and border force staff are already being trained. the french government believes the technique
6:03 am
is dangerous and against international maritime law. the home office, though, has taken legal advice suggesting otherwise — but it's likely to strain the already tense relations between britain and france further. simon jones, bbc news. scotland could become the first part of the uk to introduce covid vaccination passports. proof of a double jab will be required to gain entry into nightclubs and large—scale events. the scottish parliament will vote on the measures today. the first minister, nicola sturgeon, says it will help reduce a recent surge in coronavirus cases — but concerns have been raised about how it will work. our scotland correspondent, lorna gordon, reports. this was a big game for scotland — for what it meant for the national side, and in terms of numbers — with more than 40,000 football fans attending. the next time scotland play at home, though, they might need a covid passport to attend. we'll get them. we're old enough, we're double—jabbed, so... people are getting covid tests, etc,
6:04 am
etc, so why do they need a passport? i think it's a bad idea _ because it's their choice, isn't it? i works in the nhs, i work in a covid ward, and i agree that we need it. under the proposal, everyone over 18 who's eligible for vaccination will have to show a vaccine certificate to gain entry to nightclubs. you'll have to be double—jabbed for unseated indoor events with audiences of more than 500 people. also, if you're in an audience of more than 4,000 at a non—seated outdoor event, or at any event with more than 10,000 people attending. backers say the scheme is a way of allowing events like this big football game to go ahead, despite surging covid cases, and will help with efforts to avoid imposing further restrictions. but opponents have concerns about civil liberties, and others wonder whether it will actually work in practice. backers say the scheme is a way of allowing events like this big football game to go ahead, despite surging covid cases, and will help with efforts to avoid imposing further restrictions.
6:05 am
but opponents have concerns about civil liberties, and others wonder whether it will actually work in practice. it is not clear what timescales clubs will be asked to work to. it's not clear what can be done for those people who don't have a smartphone to be able to download qr codes and engage with the technology. chanting. other countries — including italy, ireland and france, where there have been protests against vaccine passports — have already introduced their own schemes. experts say it has led to an uptake in vaccinations. france, from what they were saying when they were having a real problem with vaccine uptake — and the day after the policy was announced, nearly a million people booked theirjab and it's estimated that around seven million extra vaccinations have been given because of the introduction of vaccine passports. england has plans to introduce vaccine certification. wales is considering it for higher—risk settings. northern ireland has not yet announced a position. holyrood will debate it later. the scottish government insists vaccine certification is a limited, targeted and proportionate response to a very difficult situation. lorna gordon, bbc news. later on breakfast we'll discuss
6:06 am
this further with linda bauld, professor of public health at the university of edinburgh. it could become compulsory for nhs staff in england to be vaccinated against both covid and flu. 0ur chief political correspondent adam fleming is here. good adam fleming is here. morning. consultation now it good morning. consultation now but it has definitely been spoken about for some time.— it has definitely been spoken about for some time. morning. this is the government — for some time. morning. this is the government pushing _ for some time. morning. this is the government pushing ahead - for some time. morning. this is the government pushing ahead with - government pushing ahead with something they had already announced before, this idea that all health care workers in the nhs in england have to get their covid vaccination. something like 88% of people have already had both doses, who are working in the health service, but it varies from trust to trust and place to place, so this would be about making sure there was a blanket coverage. also health care workers would be compelled to get the flu vaccine, as well. the government is looking at extending that compulsory vaccination
6:07 am
programme to workers in social care who are already obliged to have the covid vaccine. this would be controversial with the trade unions who represent those workers, because they would rather people were encouraged to have the vaccine rather than forced to and it will be controversial with conservative mps, as well, who think along the same lines. at least some of them do. still some unanswered questions here. when will this actually coming? when the policy was applied to care home workers there was quite a long consultation period and then quite a long grace period and it doesn't actually kick in until novemberfor them. also doesn't actually kick in until november for them. also what were the exemptions be? some people cannot have the vaccine. crucially, what will happen to you if you are an nhs worker and you refuse? will you actually be fired? questions to be answered during this consultation process. be answered during this consultation rocess. ~ , ,., y be answered during this consultation rocess. ~ , , ., , process. absolutely. there always are, process. absolutely. there always are. adam- _ process. absolutely. there always are, adam. good _ process. absolutely. there always are, adam. good to _ process. absolutely. there always are, adam. good to see _ process. absolutely. there always are, adam. good to see you, - process. absolutely. there alwaysl are, adam. good to see you, thank you very much. mps have approved the government's plan to increase national insurance
6:08 am
contributions to fund health and social care in england. the proposal passed comfortably with a majority of 71 votes. the prime minister, borisjohnson, says it will raise £12 billion a year. labour voted against the plan, and says working people will be hit hardest. restrictions on travel could ease later this month under plans to simplify the current travel traffic—light system. the green and amber lists could be scrapped, meaning double—jabbed holiday—makers could travel to countries with similar levels of vaccination as the uk, without the need to quarantine. those arriving in the uk from high—risk destinations would still be required to isolate for ten days in a hotel. the government says any changes will be announced by the 1st of october. there is a huge 2a hours ahead for britain's emma raducanu, who has made history at the us open tennis. the 18—year—old will play in the semi—finals in new york in the early hours of tomorrow morning, after becoming the first british woman to reach the last four at flushing meadows since jo durie in 1983. samira hussain reports.
6:09 am
the moment the dream got even bigger for british tennis sensation emma raducanu. the teenager who came through qualifying here nowjust a match away from earning a place in the us open final. she needed to get past belinda bencic — last month's olympic champion — who started the strongest, immediately breaking serve. strong start for bencic. but raducanu quickly composed herself, adjusted her game, and powered to a one—set lead. well, she got fortunate, but she capitalised on it. the momentum continued into the second set. raducanu dictating the play and breaking her opponent again, before bringing up match point. i didn't expect to be here at all. i mean, i think my flights were booked at the end of qualifying, so... it's a nice problem to have!
6:10 am
the teenager from kent now finds herself the hottest new attraction in world tennis. thank you so much. emma raducanu has won over the hearts of the new york crowd — just as she won over the wimbledon crowd. it's already been quite a summer for the british teenager. one reason she's made it this far is her apparent ability not to get distracted by the new fame and attention. the other, of course, is her skill on the tennis court — which will be on full display when she plays in the semifinals. samira hussain, bbc news, new york. you have a choice, because you are a massive tennis fans and we all desperate fight to do brilliantly. when we told this morning it is 1:15am? , . , when we told this morning it is 1:15am? , ., , ., ., ., are when we told this morning it is 1:15am? , . , ., ., ., are ou 1:15am? very early tomorrow. are you auoin 1:15am? very early tomorrow. are you going to- -- _ 1:15am? very early tomorrow. are you going to--- are — 1:15am? very early tomorrow. are you going to- -- are you — 1:15am? very early tomorrow. are you going to... are you going _ 1:15am? very early tomorrow. are you going to... are you going to _ 1:15am? very early tomorrow. are you going to... are you going to watch - going to... are you going to watch it? ., , ,., , going to... are you going to watch it? y. going to... are you going to watch it? ,.,, it? the opportunity of being in the semifinals is _ it? the opportunity of being in the semifinals is extraordinary. - it? the opportunity of being in the semifinals is extraordinary. you i semifinals is extraordinary. you have not answered _ semifinals is extraordinary. you have not answered the question.

6:14 am
could mean forjobs in industry that i'm not yet up and running, not operating normally because there are restrictions and perhaps concerns and people a bit more worried about getting back to the office. therefore there are a lot ofjobs that may not be viable still. the furlough scheme was introduced in march. that scheme that supports salaries up to 80% of your income, your basic earnings, up to about £2500 a month. that is just basic earnings, so if in hospitality for example you earned a lot of tips, thatis example you earned a lot of tips, that is not convinced, so that has been controversial. at its peak 11.6 million people have been theirjob supported by that scheme, costing more than £67 billion to the treasury. in the latest set of figures to the end ofjune it showed
6:15 am
that 1.9, figures to the end ofjune it showed that1.9, nearly figures to the end ofjune it showed that 1.9, nearly 2 million people, we still having theirjobs supported by the scheme. therefore, quite inevitably, big questions about what happens when it ends. already employers are having to contribute much more, but the industries that are not operating normally there are some big difficult decisions ahead. decisions for people like clare, who works in travel agency. she runs a travel business, one of those west affected by the pandemic. she has already had to lay off some of her staff and is worried about what happens when furlough scheme expires at the end of the month. probably the worst part of the whole journey for me was making seven members of my team redundant. heartbreaking, really, after nurturing an award—winning team. definitely the hardest moment of my career. i was kind of hoping — well, definitely hoping — that, 18 months on, we'd certainly have brought some of them back, but definitely not the case. so now we sit with four members of the team all on flexi furlough.
6:16 am
they've all worked really hard — over and above — and have agreed to temporarily cut hours to 75%. 75% of the hours is more than the business currently needs at the moment, but these guys have got lives and they've got mortgages and they need to live those lives. i think we all want to be positive, but i think, actually, we're struggling — we're genuinely struggling. it's like the government's helped us build a bridge across this valley of death, if that's what we want to call it. but, actually, the bridge has stopped being built. the travel industry are pushing forward, but there are lots of us that aren't going to make it to the other side. that is claire's story and there are many other stories like that up and down the country as businesses make some tough decisions. 100,000 jobs
6:17 am
potentially, we are told, could be at risk as the scheme ends because businesses cannot afford to bring their staff back full—time because they are not up and running in any way back to normality. the co—op has done some research looking at the longer term implications because whilst in the short term it is about getting people back to work there are fears about what it could mean for someone's job prospects are fears about what it could mean for someone'sjob prospects in the longer term. for someone'sjob prospects in the longerterm. 60% for someone'sjob prospects in the longer term. 60% of young people say they feel that their generation has been disadvantaged by this, be it in career prospects orjust being able to get a foot on the jobs ladder in the first place. 28% say their career dreams have been changed entirely by this, meaning they may have to think of doing something else than they have set out to do initially. 65% say thatjust else than they have set out to do initially. 65% say that just of the competition forjobs, thejobs competition for jobs, the jobs market competition forjobs, thejobs market right now, it's really tough. they say that has got worse as more and more people vie for fewerjobs in thejob market and more people vie for fewerjobs in the job market overall and
6:18 am
without a great start in the jobs market, getting that foot on the jobs ladder, there could be longer term implications for their career prospects and their earning prospects and their earning prospects later in life. we will look at some of those big implications a little later, we will be joined implications a little later, we will bejoined by implications a little later, we will be joined by the implications a little later, we will bejoined by the boss implications a little later, we will be joined by the boss of co—op. implications a little later, we will bejoined by the boss of co—op. they have compiled that research so we will look at the implications there about what it could mean as the furlough scheme is wound down towards the end of the month and longer term how the jobs towards the end of the month and longer term how thejobs market towards the end of the month and longer term how the jobs market has been shaped by an unprecedented 18 months and what it could mean in the much longer term. we will be here for that after a teo._ much longer term. we will be here for that after a teo. thank you very much, for that after a teo. thank you very much. see — for that after a teo. thank you very much. see you _ for that after a teo. thank you very much, see you later— for that after a teo. thank you very much, see you later on. _ for that after a teo. thank you very much, see you later on. -- - for that after a teo. thank you very much, see you later on. -- after. much, see you later on. —— after eight o'clock. gorgeous guy behind him. —— sky. let's take a look at today's front pages. the guardian carries warnings from experts and professionals that borisjohnson's £12 billion health and social care plan will fail to fix the health care crisis. the times reports that the home secretary's decision to allow british border force boats to steer migrants back across the channel has been met with anger in france.
6:19 am

6:26 am
travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm victoria hollins. there are fears that employment in some areas of west london might not fully recover until 2023, due to so manyjobs being reliant on heathrow. ealing, on the airport's doorstep, is the london borough which has been hardest hit by the pandemic — with the highest level of unemployment, and more workers on furlough than anywhere else in the capital. the stark reality is that west london is an aviation community and economy, and when your air traffic collapses by 90+ percent, there's a ripple effect through those employed directly by the airport, the airlines, and the wider supply chain. the number of applications to convert front gardens into driveways has increased. one in ten front gardens have already been converted nationwide,
6:27 am
with the number highest in london. easier parking is the main reason for paving over gardens but it can have an environmental impact on wildlife and increase the risk of flooding. a london council says it's launched a new campaign to fight back against the scourge of fly tipping after seeing huge increases in the problem. fly tipping or dumping unwanted rubbish illegally on places like street corners is enormously expensive to clean up. and hounslow council says it's aiming to educate residents about the problem after incidents surged by nearly 80% since 2017. flytipping is frustrating. people are sick and tired of it. i'm sick and tired of it. it brings the borough down. we don't like it. obviously that the professional ones, if we catch them, we'll... you know, they will go to court. that is a big crime and they can go to prison for it. but it happens fairly rarely. well, if you're heading out on public transport this morning,

this is how tfl services are looking right now. there's a good service on the tubes this morning. onto the weather now with kate kinsella. good morning. it seems that autumn has crept back in again overnight — it's a misty, murky start this morning and it is going to be a cooler day. yesterday, heathrow and northolt got up to 30.3 celsius. it isn't going to be as hot today. low pressure has taken over and, with that, the associated fronts. now, we've had some heavy showers overnight, some rumbles of thunder, further showers expected today. but further east, potentially, fewer showers there, some sunny spells and temperatures again still above where they should be for the time of year at 2a celsius. so it is still going to feel warm in the sunshine, just not as hot as yesterday. now, overnight tonight, we'll see that cloud developing once again — low cloud, potentially some mist and, as well. it is going to be another warm and humid night, though — the minimum temperature dropping not much below 15 celsius. now, as we head through friday, still low pressure, still the chance of some showers tomorrow, but through the weekend high pressure builds.
6:29 am
so there is plenty of dry weather in the forecast, but it's not quite as warm and it's not as sunny. there is a lot of cloud, we're still at risk of a shower, and temperatures returning to where they should be for the time of year. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. now though it's back to naga and charlie. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. coming up on breakfast this morning. the teenage tennis star who keeps on giving — as britain's emma raducanu reaches the us open semifinal, and we'll be live at the club where it all started for her. it's very bizarre to say rob burrow is my friend even though it has been years now. actor matthew lewis tells sally how much of an honour it was to narrate his friend, rob burrow�*s memoir.

6:36 am
could have gone second in the group but they were held to a goalless draw by the bottom side, estonia, despite gareth bale's best efforts. there we are, so a whole day to build up to that semifinal tonight. just organising sleep. absolutely. thank you very much. over the past year, former rugby league star rob burrow has inspired so many of us as he comes to terms with his diagnosis of motor neurone disease and campaigns to raise awareness of the condition. one of those who has been impacted by his story is his close friend and harry potter actor matthew lewis. he's been speaking to sally about their friendship and how it felt to be asked to narrate rob's new book. matt, thank you very much for joining us and fantastic to have a big hollywood film star. talking about your mate, rob burrow. it’s about your mate, rob burrow. it's ve about your mate, rob burrow. it�*s very bizarre to be able to say that rob burrow is my friend despite the
6:37 am
fact it's been years now, and i grew up fact it's been years now, and i grew up a leeds rhinos fan, and watching rob and all of the lads on the field, i never thought! rob and all of the lads on the field, i never thought i would meet them, never mind become friends with them. so to go from idolising him to being his friend and now having the privilege of being able to help out with all this stuff, it's really wild and i still pinch myself thinking about it. it's rob burrow, do you know what i mean? tell! thinking about it. it's rob burrow, do you know what i mean? tell me about that — do you know what i mean? tell me about that team, _ do you know what i mean? tell me about that team, that _ do you know what i mean? tell me about that team, that leeds - do you know what i mean? tell me | about that team, that leeds rhinos team. ., , �* ., , team. rob burrow enters the field. peole team. rob burrow enters the field. people would _ team. rob burrow enters the field. people would look _ team. rob burrow enters the field. people would look at _ team. rob burrow enters the field. people would look at rob - team. rob burrow enters the field. people would look at rob burrow. team. rob burrow enters the field. i people would look at rob burrow and think he's too small to play rugby. that team was just something else, really incredible, no matter what day it was, no matter who was playing, you always expected that they would win and that was to do with obviously the team spirit they had, but the individuals themselves as well were just so skilful and
6:38 am
capable of such individual magic. right when you thought it wasn't going to come from anywhere, one of them would step up and that was invariably rob. he was constantly told no by various people. you are not big enough, it's dangerous, stick to football, do something safer. i think all of thatjust spurred him on. he never backed down from anything and i'm so glad he didn't because it means we got to see one of the greatest players of all time. he see one of the greatest players of all time. , ., see one of the greatest players of all time. , ._ ., see one of the greatest players of all time. , ., ., . see one of the greatest players of all time. , ._ ., ., ., all time. he played without fear and he lives without _ all time. he played without fear and he lives without fear _ all time. he played without fear and he lives without fear now. _ all time. he played without fear and he lives without fear now. he - all time. he played without fear and he lives without fear now. he has i he lives without fear now. he has carried that attitude from his playing career into this terrible situation he is in now. i playing career into this terrible situation he is in now.- playing career into this terrible situation he is in now. i was lucky enou:h situation he is in now. i was lucky enough to — situation he is in now. i was lucky enough to see — situation he is in now. i was lucky enough to see him _ situation he is in now. i was lucky enough to see him a _ situation he is in now. i was lucky enough to see him a couple - situation he is in now. i was lucky enough to see him a couple of. situation he is in now. i was lucky - enough to see him a couple of months back when i was back home from work, and he'sjust smiling back when i was back home from work, and he's just smiling and back when i was back home from work, and he'sjust smiling and laughing and he'sjust smiling and laughing and joking, and he'sjust smiling and laughing andjoking, like and he'sjust smiling and laughing and joking, like there's nothing going on. but it's the refusal to let it change him, he's not bitter about it. in fact, it's the opposite, if anything. about it. in fact, it's the opposite, ifanything. now about it. in fact, it's the opposite, if anything. now he is just enjoying every single moment
6:39 am
and notjust for himself, but for other people. it seems to be it's always about other people with rob, about his family, it's about his his friends. but beyond that it's about people he does not even know, people who he is not even met, people who will be coming years down the line, robbie is thinking about them. that a robbie is thinking about them. at a time when many people would quite rightly want to close their doors and not leave their house, what he's done is the opposite. brute and not leave their house, what he's done is the opposite.— done is the opposite. we are all inherently _ done is the opposite. we are all inherently private _ done is the opposite. we are all inherently private people, - done is the opposite. we are all inherently private people, i - done is the opposite. we are all. inherently private people, i think, with our lives and particularly things like this. we talk about in the book as well. he talks about some very personal things, things you and i are very embarrassed about, but rob realises that by sharing those moments on those experiences, it will help other people. to live through them. being able to voice the book, when i was asked to do that, i felt so much

6:41 am
who am i to argue with that? neville was a pretty good friend. he was the one who always looked out for other people at the expense of himself a lot of times. he was terrified, most of the time, but he still did the right thing and did what it took. that is what her father is, that is what rob is. i'm sure there are times when he looked at some of the forward pack some thought, oh, gosh, i'm going to be up for one here. but he knew there were 12 other blokes here that needed him on that field, so maybe she is right. neville probably is the best friend you could have in the harry potter world, but in the real world it is probably rob. he world, but in the realworld it is probably rob-— world, but in the realworld it is robabl rob. . ., ., ., probably rob. he made a half-hour film with us — probably rob. he made a half-hour film with us and _ probably rob. he made a half-hour film with us and people _ probably rob. he made a half-hour film with us and people who - probably rob. he made a half-hour. film with us and people who watched it were so moved byjust spending half an hour in his company. i’m it were so moved byjust spending half an hour in his company. i'm not surrised half an hour in his company. i'm not surprised the _ half an hour in his company. i'm not surprised the documentary - half an hour in his company. i'm not surprised the documentary has - surprised the documentary has resonated with so many people, even people who have no contact with mnd. he is infectious. if rob can be the

6:43 am
we saw on tuesday night into wednesday that it was the warmest september night on record for wales and yesterday, scotland experienced its hottest september in hundred and 15 years with temperatures up to 28.8 celsius but as we hinted at, things are changing. have a look at how the temperatures vary from yesterday to today, a noticeable drop. but even with that. thursday temperatures above where we should be in september and in the sunshine it will feel warm but we won't feel too much sunshine and some wild showers across the north and west and rumbles of thunder and drier conditions this morning in the midlands and the south but showers will develop it and it will dry out in northern england but showers push northwards across scotland and more persistent rain in the far north and it will be a case of the showers on and off throughout the day in northern ireland but a bit more sunshine between them in the afternoon and we see the storms and they could be severe with the risk of flooding, but as i said in the sunshine it will feel humid out
6:44 am
there with temperatures up to 25 degrees in the drier eastern areas through the second half of the day. overnight at the storm should be fewer in number and it will be a misty and murky night and even though temperatures are dropping by day, by night they are holding up and we could still see temperatures in the mid to high teens so it could be another uncomfortable night to get sleep but things will be gradually on the change and what is causing the changes the area of low pressure. as soon as the temperatures get going, the showers will blossom into life, so there will blossom into life, so there will be one or two dotted round tomorrow morning and a misty and murky start with some sunshine breaking through and then the showers will get going, particularly late morning in the afternoon and the risk of one or two severe ones but may be fewer showers in the south—west and more across east anglia and the south—east and a bit more sunshine between the downpours in scotland but temperatures continue to drop. into saturday, low—pressure starting to push away a bit. still close enough for the
6:45 am
showers to fall but fewer in number on saturday and nowhere near as heavy as we'll see over the next couple of days in a little bit of sunshine in between because the low pressure pushes away we start to drag on a more northerly wind so we will see temperatures drop further and the feel of things will turn fresher, and that will continue into sunday. but replacing low pressure with high and different waves coming into compare with what we saw with the start of the week and we will see a northerly flow and feeling cool across the north—eastern coast in good conditions off for the great north run but a bit of breeze blowing on want to showers not —— dotted around for england and wales but turning shari for scotland and northern ireland but some will enjoy the change. the plan to increase national insurance contributions to help pay for the health and social care sector in england comfortably passed through a vote in the commons last night. labour voted against the proposals, calling them a ”tax on jobs”. we're joined now by the shadow local government secretary, steve reed.

to explain what it was they were about to vote for. what we will do is get out there and speak to people in the sector and come up with a plan to actually fix the crisis. what the tories are coming up with is a sticking plaster that is a tax raid on hard—working families at the time they can least afford it to partially plug the funding gap the tories have made in the national health service. the prime minister couldn't even tell keir starmer yesterday that they would be a label to eliminate the backlog waiting for nhs operations, that is how bad the proposal from the tories is. nhs operations, that is how bad the proposalfrom the tories is. i’m proposal from the tories is. i'm still not quite _ proposal from the tories is. i'm still not quite clear why the labour party wouldn't put up certain proposals, or certain ideas, and is it because you haven't got them or you didn't want them stolen ahead of the next election? the you didn't want them stolen ahead of the next election?— you didn't want them stolen ahead of the next election? the government is the next election? the government is the government _ the next election? the government is the government and _ the next election? the government is the government and they _ the next election? the government is the government and they are - the next election? the government is the government and they are ruling i the government and they are ruling and they have not come up with a plan. and they have not come up with a lan. �* , ., , ., and they have not come up with a lan.�* ,., , and they have not come up with a plan. but you should be able to come u . plan. but you should be able to come u- with an plan. but you should be able to come up with an alternative. _ plan. but you should be able to come up with an alternative. you _ plan. but you should be able to come up with an alternative. you can - up with an alternative. you can scrutinise, but you should have something to say that is a better alternative. and then it might be

it, you know, first and foremost, it's what we do, you know, we stay good friends and i think it's a nice time. phil put it in a documentary the other day. you said kind of putting it to bed, which is a nice phrase, i think. i mean, we've been 50 years doing this sort of stuff. and i think it's nice to sort of have around like this if it feels good to me. genesis, from cult prog rock to arena filling chart success. the band began in the 60s and drummer and singer phil collins is a relative newcomer, joining a mere 51 years ago. when you first auditioned for the band, did you have any idea how much work you thought you might get out of it? h0. how much work you thought you might get out of it?— get out of it? no, i thought i might aet ten get out of it? no, i thought i might get ten quid _ get out of it? no, i thought i might get ten quid a _ get out of it? no, i thought i might get ten quid a week— get out of it? no, i thought i might get ten quid a week for— get out of it? no, i thought i might get ten quid a week for a _ get out of it? no, i thought i might get ten quid a week for a few - get out of it? no, i thought i might i get ten quid a week for a few months until they— get ten quid a week for a few months until they saw through me. and then i'd until they saw through me. and then i'd be _ until they saw through me. and then i'd be back— until they saw through me. and then i'd be back out on the street again.

50 years on the going back on the road with phil's son, nick, now on drums and fingers crossed that it's not going to be canceled canceled again because of covid. who knows what might happen? things could happen. but i think i'm pretty confident we should be able to do this, this british tour, which would be really good because we haven't played such a long time over. but declining health has brought its challenges. i'm kind of physically challenged a bit, which is very frustrating because, you know, i'd love to be playing up there with my son. are you able to do any drumming at all these days? no, no, i'd love to. but, you know, i mean, i can barely hold a stick this hand. so there are there are certain

physical things which get in the way. you said putting it to bed. that's what this tour is. um, yeah, well, you know, you say things. i mean. we're all men of our age, and i think. to some extent, yeah, i think it probably is putting it to bed, but i think, yeah, i think. i mean, just generally for me. you know, i don't know if i want to go out on the road any more. of course, he has tried retirement more than once, but this does have the feel of a final act.
6:56 am
54 years of songs, friendship, the music of genesis. david sillito, bbc news. very contemplative. yes, very thoughtful and as he's very open about his own health not being good, so a lot of people are very pleased, if it is a last chance, as they go back on tour. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london. there are fears that employment in some areas of west london might not fully recover until 2023, due to so manyjobs being reliant on heathrow. ealing — on the airport's doorstep — is the london borough which has been hardest hit by the pandemic, with the highest level of unemployment and more workers on furlough than anywhere else in the capital.
6:57 am
the stark reality is that west london is an aviation community and economy, and when your air traffic collapses by 90+ percent, there's a ripple effect through those employed directly by the airport, the airlines, and the wider supply chain. the number of applications to convert front gardens into driveways has increased. one in ten front gardens have already been converted nationwide — with the number highest in london. easier parking is the main reason for paving over gardens but it can have an environmental impact on wildlife and increase the risk of flooding. a london council says it's launched a new campaign to fight back against the scourge of fly tipping after seeing huge increases in the problem. fly tipping or dumping unwanted rubbish illegally on places like street corners is enormously expensive to clean up. and hounslow council says it's aiming to educate residents about the problem after incidents surged by nearly 80% since 2017.
6:58 am
flytipping is frustrating. people are sick and tired of it. i'm sick and tired of it. it brings the borough down. we don't like it. obviously that the professional ones, if we catch them, we'll... you know, they will go to court. that is a big crime and they can go to prison for it. but it happens fairly rarely. well, if you're heading out on public transport this morning, this is how tfl services are looking right now. onto the weather now with kate kinsella. good morning. it seems that autumn has crept back in again overnight — it's a misty, murky start this morning and it is going to be a cooler day. yesterday, heathrow and northolt got up to 30.3 celsius. it isn't going to be as hot today. low pressure has taken over and, with that, the associated fronts. now, we've had some heavy showers overnight, some rumbles of thunder, further showers expected today. but further east, potentially,
6:59 am
fewer showers there, some sunny spells and temperatures again still above where they should be for the time of year at 24 celsius. so it is still going to feel warm in the sunshine, just not as hot as yesterday. now, overnight tonight, we'll see that cloud developing once again — low cloud, potentially some mist and, as well. some mist and fog, as well. it is going to be another warm and humid night, though — the minimum temperature dropping not much below 15 celsius. now, as we head through friday, still low pressure, still the chance of some showers tomorrow, but through the weekend high pressure builds. so there is plenty of dry weather in the forecast, but it's not quite as warm and it's not as sunny. there is a lot of cloud, we're still at risk of a shower, and temperatures returning to where they should be for the time of year. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. now though it's back to naga and charlie. bye for now.
7:00 am
good morning, welcome to breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. our headlines today. new tactics to deal with migrants crossing the channel. the uk border force is told that it can order boats to turn back to france. scotland could become the first part of the uk to approve a covid vaccine passport scheme for nightclubs and big events. msps vote on the plans today. the queen of new york. britain's teenage tennis sensation emma raducanu is through to the semi—finals of the us open. i didn't expect to be here at all. i mean, i think my flights were booked at the end of qualifying, so... it's a nice problem to have! elsewhere, frustration for england as they drop their first points in their world cup qualifying campaign. despite this stunning strike from captain harry kane, poland rescued a late draw in warsaw.
7:01 am
and after the sunshine and heat it's all about the storms over the next few days. scattered thunderstorms arriving and it will turn fresher. i will have your full forecast here on breakfast. it's thursday the 9th of september. our top story. boats carrying migrants across the channel from france could be turned back at sea, in new tactics authorised by the home secretary, priti patel. the move is set to be opposed by the french authorities, who describe the technique as dangerous, and a breach of maritime law. simonjones has this report. more than 1,500 migrants have reached the uk by boat this week alone. britain says the numbers are unacceptable — france, unsatisfactory. a meeting between the home secretary and her french counterpart, gerald darmanin, yesterday was described as constructive, but failed to agree new measures to prevent the crossings. now priti patel plans to use so—called push—back tactics to force boats back into french waters — in limited circumstances, and only when it's considered safe to do so.
7:02 am
it's a technique that's controversially being used by the australian authorities, who towed migrant boats back to indonesia, saying it helped restore the integrity of their borders. critics claim it's damaged the country's reputation. the british government says it needs to use every possible tactic at its disposal to tackle the vile trade in people—smuggling, and border force staff are already being trained. the french government believes the technique is dangerous and against international maritime law. the home office, though, has taken legal advice suggesting otherwise — but it's likely to strain the already tense relations between britain and france further. simon jones, bbc news. let's speak now to our chief political correspondent, adam fleming. good morning. can i ask you a really basic question? we know priti patel, this country, lots to look as if they are doing something about those people trying to get across the
7:03 am
channel. is this in any sense, this new policy, is it real, tangible, will anything actually happened differently?— will anything actually happened differentl ? . ., , ., differently? wonderful question which is one _ differently? wonderful question which is one i _ differently? wonderful question which is one i will— differently? wonderful question which is one i will be _ differently? wonderful question which is one i will be asking - which is one i will be asking officials and ministers today, as well. i understand there is agreement within the government on the principle of intercepting both turning them back to france in theory but they are still working out the operational details of how it will actually work in practice. once this tactic is deployed, there will be so many variables that will come into play. what is legal under british law? what is legal under international law? what is the actual situation of each individual boat at the border force come across. and then the personal judgment of the officers on that boat. and then of course the cooperation of the french authorities. every time it happens you could get a different outcome because there are so many factors to take into account. what is clear, though, is that the government has been throwing the kitchen sink at
7:04 am
this problem, or at least they perceive it as a problem, and doesn't seem to be working. the other thing that is clear is the relationship between the uk and france over this joint problem seems to be getting worse, as well. itruihgt france over this joint problem seems to be getting worse, as well.- to be getting worse, as well. what a wonderful answer! _ you charmer. i'm sure adam is still smilinr. i you charmer. i'm sure adam is still smiling. i appreciate _ you charmer. i'm sure adam is still smiling. i appreciate that _ you charmer. i'm sure adam is still smiling. i appreciate that mutual i smiling. i appreciate that mutual respect, — smiling. i appreciate that mutual respect, i— smiling. i appreciate that mutual respect, i will look forward to that when _ respect, i will look forward to that when i _ respect, i will look forward to that when i my— respect, i will look forward to that when i my question. scotland could become the first part of the uk to introduce covid vaccination passports. proof of a double—jab will be required to gain entry into nightclubs and large—scale events. the scottish parliament will vote on the measures today. the first minister, nicola sturgeon, says it will help reduce a recent surge in coronavirus cases — but concerns have been raised about how it will work. our scotland correspondent, lorna gordon, reports. this was a big game for scotland — for what it meant for the national side, and in terms of numbers — with more than 40,000
7:05 am
football fans attending. the next time scotland play at home, though, they might need a covid passport to attend. we'll get them. we're old enough, we're double—jabbed, so... people are getting covid tests, etc, etc, so why do they need a passport? i think it's a bad idea _ because it's their choice, isn't it? i works in the nhs, i work in a covid ward, and i agree with it — we need it. under the proposal, everyone over 18 who's eligible for vaccination will have to show a vaccine certificate to gain entry to nightclubs. you'll have to be double—jabbed for unseated indoor events with audiences of more than 500 people. also, if you're in an audience of more than 4,000 at a non—seated outdoor event, or at any event with more than 10,000 people attending. backers say the scheme is a way of allowing events like this big football game to go ahead, despite surging covid cases, and will help with efforts to avoid imposing further restrictions. but opponents have concerns about civil liberties, and others wonder whether it
7:06 am
will actually work in practice. it is not clear what timescales clubs will be asked to work to. it's not clear what can be done for those people who don't have a smartphone to be able to download qr codes and engage with the technology. chanting. other countries — including italy, ireland and france, where there have been protests against vaccine passports — have already introduced their own schemes. experts say it has led to an uptake in vaccinations. france, from what they were saying when they were having a real problem with vaccine uptake — and the day after the policy was announced, nearly a million people booked theirjab and it's estimated that around seven million extra vaccinations have been given because of the introduction of vaccine passports. england has plans to introduce vaccine certification. wales is considering it for higher—risk settings. northern ireland has not yet announced a position. holyrood will debate it later.
7:07 am
the scottish government insists vaccine certification is a limited, targeted and proportionate response to a very difficult situation. lorna gordon, bbc news. our scotland reporter, alexandra mackenzie is at the garage nightclub in glasgow for us this morning. does it feel good to be in there? it is a little empty unless you have revellers from overnight. tell us how this could work. i revellers from overnight. tell us how this could work.— revellers from overnight. tell us how this could work. i am completely on my own- — how this could work. i am completely on my own. there _ how this could work. i am completely on my own. there were _ how this could work. i am completely on my own. there were about - how this could work. i am completely on my own. there were about 500 i on my own. there were about 500 people here at last night enjoying themselves on the dance floor but completely empty now, can hear my voice echoing. in night in scotland there are some restrictions still in place. it is fine not to wear a mask if you are sitting at a table but i'm going to get up and take you onto the dance floor. if you are moving around, you do have to keep
7:08 am
your mask on. if i was dancing i would be able to take it off but as i am standing i have to keep it on. other things have had to be put in place. nightclubs were closed for months so there was a lot of preparation it had to go into getting them open again and in this particular nightclub they have put a whole new ventilation system, the whole new ventilation system, the whole length of the dance floor because nightclubs do tend to be quite closed spaces with little or more windows —— little or no windows. there is concern in the industry that little has been done already and now there is the likelihood of vaccine passports. there is concern about how that will work in terms of practical things if people are lined up to come in. will they have to be more security employed? that will obviously be another cost that will have to be met by the nightclub. there is also concern they might be a shortage of security people to be able to do
7:09 am
that and also concern that people might be put off coming to nightclubs. if someone hasn't been vaccinated obviously they can't come in but also in terms of it will be easierjust to go to a pub instead. so why go through the whole possible rigmarole of coming in with the vaccine passports when you can just go to a pub instead you out there is also some political opposition to this, as well, from the labour party and the lib dems. at that vote will take place in the scottish parliament later on today. i’m take place in the scottish parliament later on today. i'm not sure it would _ parliament later on today. i'm not sure it would work, _ parliament later on today. i'm not sure it would work, but _ parliament later on today. i'm not sure it would work, but basically i sure it would work, but basically you can not wear a mask if you are dancing. if you've danced the whole time you are telling us that we could have seen you without a mask. yes, absolutely, yes. but i wasn't sure that viewers will appreciate that and i wasn't sure i would be able to keep that going for over a minute. ., .., ., ., ., , ., minute. you could have done a shovel side to side. — minute. you could have done a shovel side to side, that's _ minute. you could have done a shovel side to side, that's what _ minute. you could have done a shovel side to side, that's what some - side to side, that's what some people call dancing. i side to side, that's what some people call dancing.— side to side, that's what some

lightning that could cause a few issues. just about anywhere where you do see those storms. some places will avoid them altogether. fairly cloudy across scotland, with persistent rain there and in the very fine work. tonight, showers keep going for a while but many will fade through to the morning but it will be an misty, murky start and even though the daytime temperatures are dropping, it will be quite a humid night, temperatures for many in the mid—if not high teens for friday morning. free friday, showers and thunderstorms are back but there are changes ahead as far as temperatures are concerned come into the weekend, because it is, temperatures dropping back to the high teens and low 20s that should be dry this weekend. all good, thank you, matt. double—jabbed holiday—makers could soon be able to go to countries with similar levels of vaccination as the uk, without the need to quarantine. under new plans the green and amber travel categories would be scrapped, but anyone arriving in the uk from a high—risk country would still need to pay to isolate

7:23 am
dr malhotra, good morning stuck in good morning. tell me about your dad. he good morning. tell me about your dad. ., ~ dad. he called me on monday the 26th ofjul , 'ust dad. he called me on monday the 26th ofjuly. just after— dad. he called me on monday the 26th ofjuly, just after 5pm, _ dad. he called me on monday the 26th ofjuly, just after 5pm, obtaining - ofjuly, just after 5pm, obtaining ofjuly, just after 5pm, obtaining of chest discomfort. he had no cardiac history but as a cardiologist i was able to determine this was concerning. i asked him to call in an illustrated way that he was reluctant at that time. he would rather call his neighbours who happen to be doctors to see him. when i called back 15 minutes later, a very distressed neighbour, who was a very distressed neighbour, who was a doctor, said to me on the phone, aseem, yourfather has had a doctor, said to me on the phone, aseem, your father has had a a doctor, said to me on the phone, aseem, yourfather has had a cardiac arrest, we are doing cpr, stay on the line, the ambulance is on its way. i have managed scores of patients in my career in similar situations and at that moment in time i took control of the situation and reassure them and said, don't worry, we will shut you out of this. because in this sort of situation if you are going to have a cardiac arrest outside of hospital, a possible heart attack, if it is witnessed and you had to fully train people cpr and the ambulance already
7:24 am
call, which it had been... because when they saw my dad he was complaining of chest pain and they had already caught the embolus. nine times out of ten you can shop people out of this because the ambulances are supposed to come within about ten minutes. i stayed on the line, ten minutes. i stayed on the line, ten minutes. i stayed on the line, ten minutes passed, 15, 20. it took over 30 minutes before the ambulance arrived. they then face time with me and i saw the cardiac monitor being attached to dad and it was a flat line, nothing to shop. we have missed that window of my father was gone. i missed that window of my father was one. . , missed that window of my father was , one. ., , , ., , missed that window of my father was .one. ., , , gone. i am very sorry about your father passing. _ gone. i am very sorry about your father passing, it _ gone. i am very sorry about your father passing, it must - gone. i am very sorry about your father passing, it must have - gone. i am very sorry about yourl father passing, it must have been very distressing for you. and obviously you will be missing him now. you have an issue with the fact that you were not aware that there could be this long period before an ambulance came. you are under the impression it would be ten minutes. i am glad you have raised that point. in the days to weeks following his death, i actually
7:25 am
spoke to a very senior nurse in nhs england, and she informed me that actuallyjust a couple of england, and she informed me that actually just a couple of weeks before dad has his event, her husband experienced chest pain and she was privy to information that she was privy to information that she basically knew the ambulances were not responding in time for life—threatening illnesses or injuries and actually decided not even to call an ambulance. she took her own husband and drove down the hard shoulder as fast as she could to the nearest a&e, where they diagnose an acute heart attack. when i spoke fed to her, she said it was well known within the department of health and nhs england that, for several weeks, health and nhs england that, for severalweeks, i health and nhs england that, for several weeks, i ambulance services have not been meeting targets for emergencies across several regions in england, and infact emergencies across several regions in england, and in fact many trusts have been calling for the army to be brought in to help the ambulance service. for me, knowing that they withheld, in my view deliberately, this information from doctors and the public, i think is quite
7:26 am
scandalous. when my dad called me, if i had known it would take over 30 minutes, for example, i would have told... i would minutes, for example, i would have told... iwould have minutes, for example, i would have told... i would have called the neighbour and asked them to take him straight to hospital and he would have got there before he had a cardiac arrest. in didsbury, where he lived, he had two cardiac centres, wythenshawe and manchester royal infirmary. i am holding them responsible for this. something else that has also emerged and is being investigated is that the ambulance times that have been recorded, there is a big discrepancy between the call that was made by a qualified doctor, actually, he sent me the screenshot of the call made to the ambulance, and the times that have been documented and sent to me from the north west ambulance service. there is a huge discrepancy of about 70 minutes of one of the ambulance was dispatched when he said the call was dispatched when he said the call was made. either it is a mistake —— 17 minutes. i have made an official
7:27 am
complaint but one thing that is important to mention in all of this. my important to mention in all of this. my dad's death is a symptom of an nhs that is now broken. this would be my follow-up — nhs that is now broken. this would be my follow-up question - nhs that is now broken. this would be my follow-up question to - nhs that is now broken. this would be my follow-up question to this. i be my follow—up question to this. what money is needed, what resources are needed, can this be improved? this are needed, can this be improved? is you are needed, can this be improved? 33 you have are needed, can this be improved? e3 you have been discussing over the last couple of days on the programme, the government have put an extra £5 billion in health and social care. money alone will not fix this. it is like putting a plaster on a severed artery. the bigger problem driving demand on the nhs is ourfailure to bigger problem driving demand on the nhs is our failure to tackle prevention and of course chronic underfunding by this particular government for the last ten years. to put things into perspective, the biggest driver in demand on the nhs is diet —related disease. it has even been estimated that half of the covid deaths could have been avoided if we had healthier lifestyles and
7:28 am
that has not been tackled by the government. 50% of the diet in this country now is ultra—processed food, and is being driven by manipulations and is being driven by manipulations and excesses in the food industry. we also have an issue of too much medicine. of course we are very happy that the vaccine roll—out has been successful and has probably been successful and has probably been not as good as we expected because of course the vaccine still isn't having a massive impact on preventing transmission but across hospital admissions. the reality is that the drug industry and food industry, their business model, paraphrase the past president of the royal college of physicians, too much medicine is now lodged by the bmj since 2012. dr much medicine is now lodged by the bmj since 2012— bmj since 2012. dr malhotra, apologies. — bmj since 2012. dr malhotra, apologies, time _ bmj since 2012. dr malhotra, apologies, time is _ bmj since 2012. dr malhotra, apologies, time is against. bmj since 2012. dr malhotra, apologies, time is against us| bmj since 2012. dr malhotra, - apologies, time is against us but thank you so much. i am very, very sorry for the loss of your father and the trauma that is obviously caused and the distress are my best to you and your family.—
7:29 am
the north west ambulance service says it is investigating the incident and will liaise with the family to discuss the matter further. and the government says that it will be investing £36 billion in health services through its new health and social care levy. we have been discussing that this morning. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm victoria hollins. there are fears that employment in some areas of west london might not fully recover until 2023, due to so manyjobs being reliant on heathrow. ealing, on the airport's doorstep, is the london borough which has been hardest hit by the pandemic — with the highest level of unemployment, and more workers on furlough than anywhere else in the capital. we face a situation where we have the highest number of people on furlough and that was layered on top of the fact that we have the second highest number of people on in—work benefits. so the impact on jobs and the impact
7:30 am
therefore on people's incomes has been really quite extreme. new research by macmillan cancer support suggests one in four cancer patients in london are not receiving specialist nursing support. the charity is concerned that the lack of support could be affecting people's chances of survival. the report comes as the government announces tax hikes to fund the nhs covid backlog. a london council says it's launched a new campaign to fight back against the scourge of fly tipping after seeing huge increases in the problem. fly tipping or dumping unwanted rubbish illegally on places like street corners is enormously expensive to clean up. and hounslow council says it's aiming to educate residents about the problem after incidents surged by nearly 80% since 2017. (sot next) two met police officers who delivered a baby on a street in southwark have been reunited with the family they helped. pcs mia kerr and pc tom palmer were on routine patrol
7:31 am
when they were asked for help by the baby's father— they were talked through what to do by london ambulance staff on the phone. despite complications the baby was delivered safely. well, if you're heading out on public transport this morning, this is how tfl services are looking right now. there's a good service on the tubes this morning apart from minor delays on the bakerloo line and a part suspension on tfl rail. onto the weather now with kate kinsella. good morning. it seems that autumn has crept back in again overnight — it's a misty, murky start this morning and it is going to be a cooler day. yesterday, heathrow and northolt got up to 30.3 celsius. it isn't going to be as hot today. low pressure has taken over and, with that, the associated fronts. now, we've had some heavy showers overnight, some rumbles of thunder, further showers expected today. but further east, potentially, fewer showers there, some sunny spells and temperatures again still above where they should be for the time of year at 24 celsius. so it is still going to feel warm in the sunshine, just not as hot as yesterday. now, overnight tonight, we'll see that cloud developing once again — low cloud, potentially

some mist and, as well. it is going to be another warm and humid night, though — the minimum temperature dropping not much below 15 celsius. now, as we head through friday, still low pressure, still the chance of some showers tomorrow, but through the weekend high pressure builds. so there is plenty of dry weather in the forecast, but it's not quite as warm and it's not as sunny. there is a lot of cloud, we're still at risk of a shower, and temperatures returning to where they should be for the time of year. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. now though it's back to charlie and naga. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. mps have agreed to higher taxes to help fund health and social care sector. the prime minister said his plan would deal with "catastrophic costs" faced

care right now, but what this is about is the big reforms that everyone has been calling for for so long. you can't switch it on overnight. i would love the governments in the past had managed to get this over the line and then the policy would already be in place but that is in the case. we as the government have done this and we are the government who voted this through yesterday. to mention, yesterday, labourvoted through yesterday. to mention, yesterday, labour voted against the report. we yesterday, labour voted against the re ort. ~ . yesterday, labour voted against the reort. ~ ., ., ., ,, ., report. we are not talking about labour. report. we are not talking about labour- we _ report. we are not talking about labour. we are _ report. we are not talking about labour. we are getting - report. we are not talking about labour. we are getting on - report. we are not talking about labour. we are getting on with l report. we are not talking aboutl labour. we are getting on with it. you are slightly _ labour. we are getting on with it. you are slightly missing - labour. we are getting on with it. you are slightly missing my - labour. we are getting on with it. | you are slightly missing my point. if you say the need is now and you have to raise the money later on there is a process attached to that but there is another option which is you spend the money that you are going to spend in 2023 but doing now, so you borrow the money because the need is now. it is no use to anyone saying that there is policy you have to go through and reforms that are long—standing. they need it now. so why not borrow the money now
7:38 am
and do the work now in these crucial sectors in peoples homes, in care homes, when it's most needed? you make an homes, when it's most needed? gm. make an important point about suggesting we should be borrowing money but actually this is a significant economic point. we are being fiscally responsible are not proposing to fund it through more borrowing. we are saying this is going to cost money and this is why we have put in place a specific tax to pay for the social care reform as well as tackling the nhs backlog. that is a responsible thing to do, even though it is hard, and i don't like doing it, to say the people we will need to ask for more of your money in taxes. let me finish. we are putting our money into social care right now and as i said, as of april 2022 when it comes into place, more than half of the funding in this package for social care is to go into wider social care reform and to support everyone who receives social care, whether they are paying for it themselves or state funded
7:39 am
and includes a package of over half and includes a package of over half a billion to support the social care workforce in training and development and that is a fantastic workforce but i hear again and again from them that they don't feel valued enough and they want more support in their career. that will support in their career. that will support the workforce and all the people they look after, so we are getting on with it but the big policy to put in place a cap on the amount you might face at the cost of your care, that does simply take time to implement. we can't turn it on tomorrow and we will turn it on as soon as we can and that will give people the peace of mind that they won't face those huge care bills that some face at the moment. 50 won't face those huge care bills that some face at the moment. so you are the social — that some face at the moment. so you are the social care _ that some face at the moment. so you are the social care minister— that some face at the moment. so you are the social care minister and - are the social care minister and ultimately your job are the social care minister and ultimately yourjob is about keeping people safe. there is a discussion going on about double vaccinations for nhs staff and for social care staff as well., so is it your opinion that somebody working in those sectors should be sacked if

7:41 am
they refuse, they should be sacked? that seems that that is the logical extension of what you are saying? we are extension of what you are saying? - are supporting care extension of what you are saying? e are supporting care homes to work with their staff so for those who are hesitant i'm worried about getting vaccinated to give them the most profitable support to get vaccinated. of course, those who have a read —— medical reason or clinical exemption will not be felt to do this. and that is a relatively small number, i believe. and i would say to any care worker who has not been vaccinated, go and get your vaccination. there is still time between now and september the 16th and have your firstjob. between now and september the 16th and have yourfirstjob. but between now and september the 16th and have your firstjob.— and have your first 'ob. but what if they don-n _ and have your first 'ob. but what if they don-n its— and have your first 'ob. but what if they don't? it's a _ and have your first job. but what if they don't? it's a simple _ and have your first job. but what if they don't? it's a simple question. then the care home will have to work with that staff member to see if there are alternative roles they can do that don't involve being deployed working in the care home. this is really difficult. i've spoken to

7:44 am
them ahead from 30 yards. but poland found an equaliser in injury time. popping up with a header to ensure the points were shared. so england still very much in pole position to qualify in the group but they will be annoyed with themselves there. northern ireland have it all to do chasing second place on the chance to qualify vying the play—offs and they needed to beat switzerland in finish goalless mainly because of bailey peacock farrell's second—half penalty save and that's the second game in a row which he saved a penalty and there was frustration for wales, who could have gone second in the group but were held to a goalless draw by bottom side estonia despite gareth bale's best efforts. having dominated his sport for a decade and breaking numerous world records, usain bolt is turning his attention to a different type of record. as a music producer.

7:51 am
temperatures from yesterday through to today. temperatures in the 20s on the low 30s, the high teens or may be low to mid 20s are best but was still feel warm and it's quite humid as it is out there this morning with storms around already and we've seen them flashing around on one or two spots on its mainly outbreaks of rain and scotland, northern ireland, the far north of england a batch of showers in the south—west and as we go through the morning, reasonably dry but the showers will push northwards and return to northern england later had a bit of sunshine them in northern ireland but where we see the showers they could be severe in places with frequent lightning and there is a risk of flooding, but some staying dry and some breaks will feel warm and humid even though we are not as hot as hot as it has been but temperatures in eastern areas will stay dry at around 25 degrees. this evening and overnight the showers continue for the northern half of the country and if you return across england and wales in the southernmost counties, but many will finish the night to dry and quite misty in places, lots
7:52 am
of low cloud around and even though daytime temperatures are dropping night—time temperatures are holding up night—time temperatures are holding up for the time at mid to high teens. it's all because we have low pressure at the moment and where we see low pressure over the uk think of it as a breeding ground for the showers to form. they will be there first thing in the morning but maybe not as many, but scotland and parts of the west, they will see them but they will brew elsewhere and in the inland areas they could become thundery and severe and across southern counties towards the south and south wales it will be a dry day. temperatures continuing to drop as northerly winds develop and they will develop a little bit further as we go into saturday. you will notice it mostly across scotland and northern ireland, plenty of cloud around but is low pressure moves away the showers should be lighter and fewer in number and as you can see, northerly wind kicking in the temperatures mid teens across parts of northern scotland as the low pressure pushes further it's replaced by high pressure which will bring drier conditions but we started the week with a vibrator to
7:53 am
the south drawing in the heat and this time high—pressure to the west and wins going clockwise, so bring in the winding from the north and pressure gave all of us on sunday, but whilst there will be cloud and a few showers, particularly across parts of england and wales, scotland and northern ireland should be increasingly sunny as we go into the afternoon, butjust look at increasingly sunny as we go into the afternoon, but just look at the temperatures. instead of seeing what we've got at the moment in the mid 20s and low 30s by the time we had sunday we are looking at 14 or 15 across the north or 20 and 21 in the south, but these figures are what we expect at this time of year and things will be dry into monday and tuesday and we will see the temperatures drop a little bit further for a while and the night will be a good deal more comfortable. if you've been struggling to sleep in the heat and humidity, things are looking pressure. thank you. where you are scout? i was a cub scout, very briefly. why briefly? our group was disbanded. nothing to do with me.— briefly? our group was disbanded. nothing to do with me. that's really

but it's actually also about where we are launching and where the provision will make the biggest difference. we are really focusing on the communities that have been most impacted by the pandemic. this is our commitment to young people, families and communities to help them bounce back after such a difficult period. but to do that we need volunteers, donors, partners to get on board and support this awesome new programme. 50 get on board and support this awesome new programme. so how does this work? do — awesome new programme. so how does this work? do people _ awesome new programme. so how does this work? do people come _ awesome new programme. so how does this work? do people come to _ awesome new programme. so how does this work? do people come to you - awesome new programme. so how does this work? do people come to you and l this work? do people come to you and say our community could do with this being set up? who are you to cling to? —— talking to? we being set up? who are you to cling to? -- talking to?— being set up? who are you to cling to? -- talking to? we are opening up to? -- talking to? we are opening up to new grouos — to? -- talking to? we are opening up to new grouos and — to? -- talking to? we are opening up to new groups and we've _ to? -- talking to? we are opening up to new groups and we've been - to? -- talking to? we are opening up| to new groups and we've been working with the scout movement to focus on some of those lower income areas, black, asian, minority ethnic communities but were also saying if you are interested and excited about this, get involved, go to the

website, registeryour this, get involved, go to the website, register your interest, because actually it's incredible. 4.6 million people volunteered for the first time last year and it tells me something, and it tells me people want to make a difference in their community but also that volunteering is good for you and good for your health and well—being and your skills and your cv and i say that as a scout leader myself. it's so rewarding, personally that in this provision, you see the young person develop before your very eyes. person develop before your very e es. ~ ., . person develop before your very e es, ~ ., , , , person develop before your very ees., person develop before your very ees. ., , , , ., person develop before your very ees. . , ,, eyes. what is the best badge to own for a new member _ eyes. what is the best badge to own for a new member of _ eyes. what is the best badge to own for a new member of the _ eyes. what is the best badge to own for a new member of the squirrels? | for a new member of the squirrels? there are 35 badges you can earn, all new badges. you can do a brilliant builders badge where you learn how to build things. a local superhero badge where you learn about the people in your community who have made such a difference over the last year. that could be learning about doctors, learning about nurses, learning about firemen. everyone who has made a
7:59 am
difference. the point about scouting is that it impacts on a kind of level of all different skills, and what this does, this new programme, it combines the best of scouting, getting outdoors and learning by doing with early years education best practice as well, so storytelling, routine and play, so you can have fun, but at that time you can have fun, but at that time you learn so many skills, because if you learn so many skills, because if you are four years old, you've spent a third of your life in a pandemic and much of that in lockdown, so you have not been able to develop those critical skills that make such a difference to your life and if you change the start of the story, you change the start of the story, you change the start of the story, you change the whole story. it’s change the start of the story, you change the whole story.— change the start of the story, you change the whole story. it's a very iood change the whole story. it's a very good point- _ change the whole story. it's a very good point- and — change the whole story. it's a very good point. and a _ change the whole story. it's a very good point. and a good _ change the whole story. it's a very good point. and a good point - change the whole story. it's a very good point. and a good point to i change the whole story. it's a very i good point. and a good point to end on. thank you so much, ceo of the scouts association. and you can now be one of the squirrels if you are four or five. be one of the squirrels if you are four orfive. and it really be one of the squirrels if you are four or five. and it really works, that last thought where so much time has been spent in the pandemic when you are that young, and i like the

8:02 am
across the channel from france could be turned back at sea, in new tactics authorised by the home secretary, priti patel. the move is set to be opposed by the french authorities, who describe the technique as dangerous, and a breach of maritime law. we'll get more on the uk reaction to this with our chief political correspondent, adam fleming in a moment, but first let's speak to our correspondent, nick beake who is in calais. good morning to you. can they do this today?— this today? well, certainly the indications _ this today? well, certainly the indications we _ this today? well, certainly the indications we are _ this today? well, certainly the indications we are getting - this today? well, certainly the indications we are getting is i this today? well, certainly the indications we are getting is it| indications we are getting is it won't be an imminent change of policy. it will be interesting when we talk to some of the people living in camps around the canae area later because i guess the big question is, will this actually detect anyone? it is at the forefront of people's minds if they are going to try to attempt this perilous journey. minds if they are going to try to attempt this perilousjourney. —— people in the camps in calais. the french side are not impressed by the
8:03 am
change of policy that the british government are using and they will take note. the lines we have heard this morning that this will only be used in specific and limited situations. certainly charities in calais will be echoing what other charities in the uk have been crying, that this is an inhumane approach to take. also the french authorities are quite annoyed because this deal was struck in the summerfor because this deal was struck in the summer for the because this deal was struck in the summerfor the british because this deal was struck in the summer for the british to get £54 million to the french authorities here to try to double the number of patrols along french waters, and what we are hearing from the french authorities is that this was never dependent on results, and they claim that this year they have managed to stop 10,000 migrants from making the relatively short but perilous journey from france to the british coast and they say it works out at about 50% of attempted crossings that they have managed to intercept. the french are pushing back on this. they are also pushing back on the policy of pushback that do not that
8:04 am
is what the british bring it. winston training will be under way for but it was other british officials carrying this out, but certainly the indication we are getting from everyone here is that this will not stem the flow in the short term, and more than 1500 people have managed to complete the crossing from france to britain just this week. crossing from france to britain 'ust this week. ., ~' , ., , crossing from france to britain 'ust this week. ., ,. , ., , . a this week. thank you very much. nick beake in calais. _ let's speak now to our chief political correspondent adam fleming. interesting question, will people be deterred? it looks good for the home secretary to say tough things about the very difficult issue, but whether it actually works is a whole different thing. i whether it actually works is a whole different thing.— different thing. i suspect this is one of those — different thing. i suspect this is one of those policies _ different thing. i suspect this is one of those policies that - different thing. i suspect this is one of those policies that gets| different thing. i suspect this is - one of those policies that gets more coverage in the newspapers than the number of times it happens in the real world once it is introduced. my understanding is that the government agrees to the principle of this new tactic but are still working out the operational details about how it
8:05 am
would work. what will happen at sea if it is ever deployed. and when it is deployed it will only be done in very narrow, specific circumstances and will depend on lots of factors like the size of the boat, the number of people on the boat. the risk to the safety of the people on the boat and the individual judgments of the border force offices who have encountered that boat. plus of course the cooperation of the french authorities. so there are a lot of variables there but there are two things that are pretty clear here. the government has been throwing the kitchen sink at what it sees as this problem of migrant crossings from france to the uk and the number of crossings seems to be increasing. so it has not worked. the other thing that is quite clear is the relationship between the uk and france on what is a joint problem seems to be deteriorating a bit. ., ~ , ., , . the government is starting a six—week consultation on whether it should be compulsory for nhs staff
8:06 am
in england to be vaccinated against covid—19. under the plans, front—line workers and care home staff would also need to get flu jabs. some unions are warning it will lead to a staff shortage but the health secretary, sajid javid says getting both jabs protects vulnerable patients. mps have approved the government's plan to increase national insurance contributions — to fund health and social care in england. the proposal passed comfortably with a majority of 71 votes. the prime minister, borisjohnson, says it will raise £12 billion a year. labour voted against the plan and says working people will be hit hardest. restrictions on travel could ease later this month under plans to simplify the current traffic—light system. the green and amber lists could be scrapped — meaning double vaccinated holiday—makers could travel to countries with similar levels of vaccination as the uk, without the need to quarantine. those arriving in the uk from high—risk destinations would still be required to isolate for ten days in a hotel. aru na iyengar reports. if this is your idea of a dream holiday...
8:07 am
..rather than this, things may be about to change. travel bosses say uk holiday—makers have been put off flying abroad because of uncertainty about sudden changes to the travel traffic—light system, and the need for expensive pcr tests before arriving in the uk. at the moment, we're in this bizarre position where the uk has the highest infection rates of any major european nation, and it also has the highest barriers to entry for people coming in. the government devised the travel traffic—light system to limit transmission of covid—19 from overseas, and protect against new variants. but now business leaders are demanding changes, saying the uk is out of step with the more liberal approach in the eu and us, where vaccinated travellers can fly with much more freedom. people clearly have the confidence in the rest of europe — they are roaring ahead of us. their industry has had more support
8:08 am
and less barrier to trade and so will be in a much fitter state, come when the pandemic is over, to compete. even if the green and amber categories are removed, the red list of countries — which the government says are too high—risk to visit — is set to remain. returning from a red country will still mean isolating for ten days in a government—approved hotel. that means many countries are still off—limits — including parts of latin america, africa, egypt, and turkey. the travel industry wants change as soon as possible — it believes a relaxation in rules will lead to a booking surge, and protect the jobs of workers currently on furlough. that finishes at the end of this month, and coincides with these changes — which are expected to be announced as part of the government's review of international travel due by the 1st of october. aruna iyengar, bbc news.

8:16 am
to be debated in parliament, not only to make these venues a bit safer, although there are things you can do, but the primary reason, as i'm sure you have been discussing, is to increase vaccine uptake. we have seen that in some of the other countries that have introduced schemes. . . countries that have introduced schemes. , . ., , countries that have introduced schemes. ,. ., , schemes. public health bosses, as ou know schemes. public health bosses, as you know all— schemes. public health bosses, as you know all about _ schemes. public health bosses, as you know all about this, _ schemes. public health bosses, as you know all about this, they - schemes. public health bosses, as you know all about this, they are l you know all about this, they are always trying to do the right thing scientifically and medically, but also things that are achievable because there is no point trying to do something if people are not going to correspond with the advice or the regulation. we had from a nightclub owner saying, you bring in the double vaccination for nightclubs and people willjust go to a bar and it is a similar situation but they are not covered by the rules, so it is tricky. it are not covered by the rules, so it is tric . . ., are not covered by the rules, so it is tric . , ., ., are not covered by the rules, so it is tric . , . ., ._ is tricky. it is, and all the way throuih is tricky. it is, and all the way through the — is tricky. it is, and all the way through the pandemic, - is tricky. it is, and all the way| through the pandemic, people is tricky. it is, and all the way - through the pandemic, people stayed at home, clear comes from government. as we opened up, loads of questions arose and we have discussed many times a new problem about the inconsistencies in guidance. people not understanding how something might apply to their

own situation. i think the choosing of, for example, how many people in an indoor event or outdoors, you know, those precise numbers scottish covenant is talking about, there are no signs that differentiate thousand from 5000, etc. but it is the principles. i think the main reasons against this, which will be debated in parliament today, are things like coercion. will it put some people getting —— when it put people off getting —— when it put people off getting taxis because the government says it has to? is it a slippery slope, do we start with nightclubs and mass events and then go to other settings? more comprehensive like israel and france up some groups cannot get a vaccine for health reasons, how will they deal with that? the final point, which you have discussed on the programme, practicalities. as we were hearing in the nightclub, how will it be administered, what will it mean for businesses? it is not an easy thing to do that we will see what the decision is today. i to do that we will see what the decision is today.—

good morning from bbc london, i'm victoria hollins. there are fears that employment in some areas of west london might not fully recover until 2023, due to so manyjobs being reliant on heathrow. ealing — on the airport's doorstep — is the london borough which has been hardest hit by the pandemic, with the highest level of unemployment, and more workers on furlough than anywhere else in the capital. we need support. we need the funding available from government to help us make sure that we are able to provide the job programmes and support packages that we are able to right now. but we also need employers to work with us too, to ensure that we can get poeple who've got the skills and who need to be in the workforce into decent paying jobs. new research by macmillan cancer support suggests one in four cancer patients in london are not receiving specialist nursing support. the charity is concerned it could be affecting people's chances of survival. the report comes as the government announces tax hikes to fund the nhs covid backlog. tottenham's 63,000—seat stadium has won a major architecture prize. the football club's new home, which hosted its first premier league game in april 2019,
8:28 am
was praised byjudges as a "tour de force in stadium design. judges of the riba awards also commended the stadium for its high street location, making it part of the local community. two met police officers who delivered a baby on a street in southwark have been reunited with the family they helped. pc mia kerr and pc tom palmer were on routine patrol when they were asked for help by the baby's father. they were talked through what to do by london ambulance staff on the phone and the baby was delivered safely. well, if you're heading out on public transport this morning, this is how tfl services are looking right now. there's a good service on the tubes this morning. just minor delays on tfl rail. onto the weather now with kate kinsella. good morning. it seems that autumn has crept back in again overnight — it's a misty, murky start this morning and it is going to be a cooler day.
8:29 am
yesterday, heathrow and northolt got up to 30.3 celsius. it isn't going to be as hot today. low pressure has taken over and, with that, the associated fronts. now, we've had some heavy showers overnight, some rumbles of thunder, further showers expected today. but further east, potentially, fewer showers there, some sunny spells and temperatures again still above where they should be for the time of year at 24 celsius. so it is still going to feel warm in the sunshine, just not as hot as yesterday. now, overnight tonight, we'll see that cloud developing once again — low cloud, potentially some mist and, as well. it is going to be another warm and humid night, though — the minimum temperature dropping not much below 15 celsius. now, as we head through friday, still low pressure, still the chance of some showers tomorrow, but through the weekend high pressure builds. so there is plenty of dry weather in the forecast, but it's not quite as warm and it's not as sunny. there is a lot of cloud, we're still at risk of a shower, and temperatures returning to where they should be for the time of year.

8:39 am
one of those who has been impacted by his story is his close friend, actor matthew lewis. he's been speaking to sally about their friendship and how it felt to be asked to narrate rob's new book. matt, thank you very much forjoining us and fantastic to have a big hollywood film star. talking about your mate, rob burrow. it's very bizarre to be able to say that rob burrow is my friend despite the fact it's been years now, and i grew up a leeds rhinos fan, and watching rob and all of the lads on the field, i never thought i would meet them, never mind become friends with them. so to go from idolising him to being his friend and now having the privilege of being able to help out with all this stuff, it's really wild and i still pinch myself thinking about it. it's rob burrow, do you know what i mean? tell me about that team, that leeds rhinos team. rob burrow enters the field. people would look at rob burrow and think he's too small to play rugby.
8:40 am
that team was just something else, really incredible, no matter what day it was, no matter who was playing, you always expected that they would win and that was to do with, obviously, the team spirit they had, but the individuals themselves as well were just so skilful and capable of such individual magic. right when you thought it wasn't going to come from anywhere, one of them would step up and that was invariably rob. he was constantly told no by various people. you are not big enough, it's dangerous, stick to football, do something safer. i think all of that just spurred him on. he never backed down from anything and i'm so glad he didn't because it means we got to see one of the greatest players of all time. he played without fear and he lives without fear now. he has carried that attitude from his playing career into this terrible situation he is in now. i was lucky enough to see him
8:41 am
a couple of months back when i was back home from work, and he was just smiling and laughing and joking, like there's nothing going on. but it's the refusal to let it change him, and he's not bitter about it. in fact, it's the opposite, if anything. now he is just enjoying every single moment and notjust for himself, but for other people. it seems to be it's always about other people with rob, about his family, it's about his his friends. but beyond that it's about people he does not even know, people who he is not even met, people who will be coming years down the line, rob is thinking about them. at a time when many people would quite rightly want to close their doors and not leave their house, what he's done is the opposite. we are all inherently private people, i think, with our lives and particularly things like this.
8:42 am
we talk about it in the book as well. he talks about some very personal things, things you and i are very embarrassed about, but rob realises that by sharing those moments and those experiences, it will help other people. to live through them. being able to voice the book, when i was asked to do that, ifelt so much pressure because what he's doing is so, so important. i suppose there is added poignancy, because you are voicing his book for him because his voice has gone. i can still hear his laugh and i can still hear him having digs at people, so it's one of those things that was so important to him and so important to so many people around him, to have that responsibility again, it was another layer to try and make sure we got it right and, hopefully, we did him somejustice because he is unlike anyone else.
8:43 am
i have to mention harry potter, i'm afraid. do you know that macy burrow is obsessed, obsessed with harry potter, and she said to me the last time i was around there that she thinks neville is the best friend that anyone could have in that book. who am i to argue with that? neville was a pretty good friend. he was the one who always looked out for other people at the expense of himself a lot of times. he was terrified, most of the time, but he still did the right thing and did what it took. that is what her father is, that is what rob is. i'm pretty sure there are times when he looked at some of the forward packs and thought, oh, gosh, i'm going to be up for one here. but he knew there were 12 other blokes here that needed him on that field, so maybe she is right. neville probably is the best
8:44 am
friend you could have in the harry potter world, but in the real world it is probably rob. he made a half—hour film with us and people who watched it were so moved byjust spending half an hour in his company. i'm not surprised the documentary has resonated with so many people, even people who have no contact with mnd. he is infectious. if rob can be the way he is with what he's got and what he's gone through, i think i can have a bit more positivity in my life, for crying out loud, and it is so inspiring the on the world of mnd, what he's doing. and the documentary i think is a big part of that, so i really hope you guys can take home the gong this week. i really do. matt, just lovely to talk to you and to hear all about that friendship, that brilliant friendship you have had with rob for so many years. thank you very much indeed. thank you. it's my pleasure. thank you. just picking up on the thought as we
8:45 am
look ahead to the us open, matt was saying that when rob was on the pitch, things happened, he was one of those plays that made things happen and there is a bit of that going on in new york. it's the mental strength. going on in new york. it's the mentalstrength. for going on in new york. it's the mental strength. for emma raducanu to keep going at the age of 18 and she came through qualifying to get this far after a matches and is on the verge of reaching the us open final. this is uncharted territory. i know we use the words fairy tale in sport, problem too often, but this is the fairytale of new york, to coin a song. emma raducanu admits she is as surprised as anyone after making history by qualifying for the semifinals of the us open and she did it by beating the 11th seed, the olympic champion in straight sets. she still hasn't dropped a set. let's put this into context, the furthest any british woman has gone in the competition sincejo durie backin in the competition sincejo durie back in new york in 1983 and is also the first qualifier ever to get
8:46 am
through to the semifinals at flushing meadows and she will play for a place in the final in the early hours of tomorrow morning. ididn't i didn't expect to be here at all and i think my flights were booked at the end of qualifying, so it's a nice problem to have, but i'm just really enjoying the experience out there on the court today i was saying to myself that this could be the last time you play on the arthur ashe court and just enjoy everything. ashe court and 'ust en'oy everythingfi ashe court and 'ust en'oy eve hina. , , , everything. absolutely everything. and let's go _ everything. absolutely everything. and let's go to _ everything. absolutely everything. and let's go to orpington - everything. absolutely everything. and let's go to orpington where i everything. absolutely everything. - and let's go to orpington where emma reller carney began. hi there, matt. i guess one of the places where they are not so surprised because she's been on the radar for so long, are not so surprised because she's been on the radarfor so long, as they were showing us earlier. the? they were showing us earlier. they are not surprised. _ they were showing us earlier. they are not surprised. this _ they were showing us earlier. they are not surprised. this is _ they were showing us earlier. ire are not surprised. this is written in the stars. five and a half thousand miles away from flushing meadows in new york for the us open at bromley tennis centre. but
