supported by our specialist officers from essex police was up a third victim was treated for injuries which are now confirmed as neither life—threatening or life—changing. detectives are working to establish how the boys died and a forensic postmortem examination will be carried out to determine the cause of death. we�*ve arrested eight men on suspicion of murder. they all remain in custody at this time. this is a fast—moving investigation and we won�*t be speculating on the circumstances surrounding the incident. we remain open—minded as to what has occurred. what i can say is that investigations so far suggest that this is in an isolated incident and there is no wider threat to the brentwood community. we would like to appeal to anyone who was in the crown street area of brentwood between 10pm last night and 5am this morning who witnessed any suspicious behaviour
6:12 pm
between that timeframe. the husband of nazanin zaghari ratcliffe, has started his second hunger strike, to try to secure her return to the uk from iran. she�*s been detained since 2016, initially accused of breaching national security. last week, she lost an appeal against a second conviction, for spreading propaganda against the iranian regime. her husband richard, staged his first hunger strike 2 years ago, which helped lead to the return of their daughter gabriella, who�*d been travelling with her mother, in iran when she was arrested. i worry, with the latest news we�*ve had with nazanin�*s case, that she�*s going to be thrown back in prison any time soon. so i wanted to make an escalation that would get the attention of the british government, but also, in the end, we do need the british to move. the bbc has learned that 18 months after the government announced a £1 billion scheme, to help tower block owners remove flammable cladding from their homes, funds so far have been allocated
6:13 pm
to less than a third of nearly 700 applications processed so far. the building safety fund, was one of the schemes set up in the wake of the grenfell tower tragedy, covering cladding of wood and other flammable laminates. but as sarah corker reports, in the few buildings where remedial work has begun, there are fresh problems. imagine having to live inside this — your home wrapped in plastic sheeting for months on end, windows that barely open, no way to see out. here you are, sarah, middle of the day, no natural light. jim lives on the first floor at islington gates, here in birmingham city center. and this is the limited air we can get into the flat. this is the view for the next year that you�*ve got? yeah, 12 months of being depressed. there is relief that the combustible cladding is being removed, but government funding won�*t cover the full cost of almost £9 million. it means leaseholders need to find more than one million between them. that�*s at least £20,000 each. what�*s it like living in this box?
6:14 pm
you haven�*t got a clue what�*s happening outside. it affects you mentally, it makes you depressed. it makes you very stressed. the stress is worse knowing you�*ve got to pay for it, and you�*ve got to pay for the privilege of living in a dark, dull box. in my case, you know, £20,000. and i grind my teeth. you feel like you're suffocating. just next door, liz and rodriguez are renting this one—bed flat. they not only have to cope with the building work, but there�*s a serious damp and mould problem, too. it's horrible. i really hate living here now, to be honest with you. and, er, ifeel embarrassed. i don't want to bring my friends here, i don't want to bring my family here, because i've got a six—year—old niece who we absolutely adore and i don't want her here because i don't want her to be breathing in the same stuff that's making me feel so poorly.
6:15 pm
liz says her asthma has been getting progressively worse. this is footage from a neighbouring flat. with the external cladding removed, this is what can happen when it rains. hundreds of people here say they face a miserable winter living on a building site, and this is one street in one city. but across the country, we�*re going to be seeing much more of this in the months and years ahead. this tower in ipswich has been like this for five months. it�*s a similar picture here in london. and these living conditions are worrying health professionals. they�*re stuck there, with all the kind of stresses of the physical environment, the financial worries and the uncertainty about when this is going to end. so we�*re going to see, i think, quite serious mental health issues. back in the midlands, the leaseholder board overseeing this work said it�*s monitoring issues closely to minimize discomfort. the government told us it�*s unacceptable people

are facing these bills, and building owners must make buildings safe, without passing on costs. but forjim and his neighbours, life behind the plastic is hard to bear. sarah corker, bbc news, in birmingham. the headlines on bbc news... labourjoins calls from doctors�* leaders and health unions for the government to reimpose some coronavirus restrictions in england — warning that the vaccine rollout is losing traction. the chancellor promises a budget that invests in �*infrastructure, innovation and skills�* as the economy recovers from the pandemic. eight people have been arrested in brentwood in essex after the deaths of two teenage boys in the early hours of this morning. tesco supermarket says problems with its website and app over the last 26 hours have been caused by an attempt to hack its system. shoppers have been unable to book deliveries or amend existing orders. kate hardcastle is a retail and consumer expert —
6:17 pm
she described the pressure tesco are under to solve the problem. very serious i think when we are in an area where a neighbour to consumers are expecting so much from retailers particularly online that they expect to feel that their information is safe, that they�*re able to shop and edit their purchases. we all know that a grocery shop is something that we all rely on. therefore hearing at 24, 25 hours of frustration being created for the customers when there are so many competitors out there for tesco is going to be a very challenging. forthe for tesco is going to be a very challenging. for the brand. they have assured their customers that they feel the breach of information of anyone�*s data but at the same point is 24 hours in the life of an organisation that has millions of transactions every year. i suppose eo - le transactions every year. i suppose people watching — transactions every year. i suppose people watching this, _ transactions every year. i suppose people watching this, customers l transactions every year. i suppose | people watching this, customers of tesco might think to questions, when can i get my groceries and is my

6:27 pm
we will have plenty of special coverage. what do you want to know about climate change ? we�*ll be getting some of your questions answered tomorrow morning at 11.30, when we�*ll be joined by two leading academics — kate crowley from the edinburgh climate change centre and michael grubb from ucl. send an email to yourquestions@bbc.co.uk or get in touch on social media using the hashtag bbc your questions. clive�*s here in a few minutes with the early evening news. before that, a look at the weather with nick miller. hello. it�*s been a brighter day out there for many of us. either side of a weather system that has brought some rain into parts of wales and is spreading east across england. ahead of it in essex, there has been some blue sky, but it is east anglia and south—east england on the weather front. although it is weakening, there is a chance of some splashes of rain for a time this evening before it clears away. behind it, the clearer weather has moved in. there are showers around and that is how things are looking as we get on through the evening and into tonight. it is clear spells and areas of showers mainly in the west, but some will push further east
6:28 pm
as the night goes on. it is breezy out there and temperatures just dipping a little bit lower, so more spots just getting down into single figures by the morning. for monday, then, it is a day of sunshine and showers, the greater chance of catching these will be in the west, especially here into western scotland, some along southern coastal counties of england, the heaviest places, a chance of hail and thunder. and a few showers willjust push inland and east as the day goes on. not everyone will catch them and most of the day is going to be dry rather than wet with sunny spells around. still a noticeable breeze. it will feel a touch fresher out there. and it will be cooler on monday night, as some spots dip down into mid or even low single figures, especially across southern areas of the uk where the winds are light and skies are clear. we are going to see the winds pick up again in northern ireland as we get rain moving in overnight and into tuesday morning, and by the morning, that�*ll be into western parts of scotland. and that is from another area of low pressure which, from tuesday, and for several days, is going to park itself to the west of the uk and around it there will be a weather front wriggling around northern and western areas with outbreaks
6:29 pm
of rain at times, rain totals mounting in the wettest spots from that rain, with the risk of disruption as a result. so this is how tuesday is looking. that first spell of rain pulls away from northern ireland, across scotland, through northern england, maybe fringing north wales and the north midlands, it�*s turning breezier across the uk. plenty of cloud in the north and west, some drizzle in places too, central and eastern england, with some sunny spells. central and eastern areas, here of england, will stay dry for much of the week ahead. but again, that weather front will continue to bring some outbreaks of rain across parts of scotland, northern ireland, northern england and wales before clearing away on friday as it moves in towards central and eastern parts of england. whether you see the rain, though, or stay dry for much of the week, it�*s mild or very mild.
