the inquiry was ordered by borisjohnson, after a series of media reports about gatherings, held while coronavirus restrictions were in place, in 2020. however, sue gray's report is limited by a metropolitan police request that only "minimal reference" be made to alleged events that may have taken place at number 10. the report is expected to be made public shortly, and borisjohnson will address mps in the next few hours. our political correspondent nick eardley is live in downing street for us this afternoon. for weeks, the answer from for weeks, the answerfrom cabinet ministers when asked about what had gone on in downing street during lockdown was to wait for sue gray's report. this afternoon, we will get her initial findings. report. this afternoon, we will get her initialfindings. this is complicated by the fact that the met police are looking into allegations too and have asked sue gray to leave some of her details out. this will be an important moment for finding

out some of what happened and for boris johnson's out some of what happened and for borisjohnson�*s premiership. sue gray's investigation into lockdown breaking parties at downing street has taken more than two months, during which a steady stream of damaging claims has emerged. now the prime minister has been updated on what she's found. on a visit to essex earlier, before he received the update, borisjohnson was staying tight—lipped. our viewers want to know, do you think that you have done anything wrong? you want to know, do you think that you have done anything wrong?- have done anything wrong? you will have done anything wrong? you will have to wait — have done anything wrong? you will have to wait and _ have done anything wrong? you will have to wait and see _ have done anything wrong? you will have to wait and see the _ have done anything wrong? you will have to wait and see the outcome . have done anything wrong? you will| have to wait and see the outcome of the investigations, but of course i stick to what i've said in the past. sue gray was tasked with looking at a number of gatherings in downing street and other government departments. the inquiry was initially set up after claims of gatherings in winter 2020 including an alleged christmas party in downing street on the 18th of december. the prime minister said he had been reassured there hadn't been

a party. his press secretary allegra stratton resigned after being caught on camera joking about such an event. there were also claims of gatherings during november 2020 and even earlier, in may 2020, including on the 20th, a bring your own booze garden gathering which the prime minister apologised for attending. i believed implicitly that this was a work event. —— i believed. but mr speaker, with hindsight, i should have sent everyone back inside. i should have found some other way to thank them. the should have found some other way to thank them-— thank them. the investigation was also known _ thank them. the investigation was also known to _ thank them. the investigation was also known to be _ thank them. the investigation was also known to be looking - thank them. the investigation was also known to be looking at - thank them. the investigation was also known to be looking at two i also known to be looking at two leading parties held the following year by staff at number ten on the 16th of april 2021, the eve of prince philip's funeral. the remit of sue gray's investigation was to set out a general understanding of the nature of gatherings including where and why they were held and who went. it is not expected to be the full report, though. last week the metropolitan police announced it

would investigate eight of the gatherings. it has asked sue gray to make minimal reference to those well it looks into them. the prime minister has committed to making sue gray's initial findings public minister has committed to making sue gray's initialfindings public and he will answer questions in the house of commons this afternoon in what could prove to be a pivotal moment for his time as prime minister. so we do expect to see the initial findings of that report published within the next couple of hours. borisjohnson will then update mps at half past three and what he says then and what is in those initial findings will really matter. there are some conservative mps who have been waiting for this moment to decide on the prime minister's future. there are others who want to see how mrjohnson responds, whether he shows contrition, whether he comes up with some solutions for changing his downing street operation. the prime minister as mac allies have already been working the room in parliament this morning to

try and shore up support for boris johnson. they think that over the last couple of weeks, his position has got a lot safer and that more tory mps are coming round to backing him. but exactly what we see this afternoon, there initialfindings of sue gray's report, will be a big moment in what has been a long drawn out saga about whether senior staff and the prime minister himself followed lockdown rules in downing street. w' followed lockdown rules in downing street. . ~ followed lockdown rules in downing street. ., ~ ., followed lockdown rules in downing street. ., ., ., ministers will meet today to decide whether to scrap mandatory covid vaccinations for health workers in england. around 77,000 nhs staff still haven't had a jab, though not all of them will be in contact with patients. the government had said that all frontline workers would need to have a firstjab by this thursday, with a second by april when the mandatory requirement would take effect. unions have warned that the policy could lead to staff shortages at a time when services are under extreme pressure. here's our health correspondentjim reed.

there were a lot of questions getting asked but being - a new pandemic none of us really knew the answers. _ i was at the start very worried thinking, "if i've got it, i'd take it home to my children. everyone who works for the trust got an e—mail to say there was a covid . patient in the hospital— and it was like like seeing bigfoot. everyone was like, "did you see this? | did you read this?" and we were all trying to get a grasp of it. i hello, i'm claire frame, i've worked for the trust for eight years as a domestic assistant. we thought it would be more of the specialised wards, like the infectious diseases wards, but then it did start filtering through to, like, the normal wards, so that's when it got a bit, like, real. my name is michael bowman, i've worked for the trust for 15 years as an assistant catering manager and we produce over 4000 meals a day. in the kitchen side of it, it's like the third medicine, what we call it. if it wasn't for us feeding the patients, the patients wouldn't get well. a lot of the staff gave up a lot of their time to come and do extra shifts to keep the department going.

hi, i'm chris wolf, i have worked at the rvi for eight years - as an operating department orderly. i was living at the time when covid started with my mother _ who is in her 70s and, . like many elderly people, i she got the shielding information, i so i moved out from the family home into a hotel so i couldl continue to do myjob. you are staying away - from all your loved ones, it wasn't a holiday. i'm denise allan, i work at ward 19 which is infectious and tropical medicine. things changed quite quickly as the cases grew into sometimes you were having quite a few cases and they did deteriorate rather quickly. especially people you are expecting not to get ill, like young people, and that's quite daunting and it's not nice to watch. my name is ashley price and i'm a consultant in infectious diseases here in newcastle. i looked after the very first patients who became critically unwell in the trust here. i was on the weekend when we had our first deaths

and it was incredibly emotional speaking to those first families because you kind of realised that this was going to be the first of many phone calls that would be very similar. the views of some of the staff at the royal victoria infirmary in newcastle on the last two years of the pandemic. and thanks to dominic hughes, health correspondent. thousands of homes in scotland and north—east england are still without power after two storms hit the uk this weekend. two people were killed by falling trees after storm malik blew in and storm corrie has also caused some damage. james shaw has more details. the western isles yesterday evening experiencing gale force winds gusting up to 92 mph. trees were brought down across a broad swathe

level demonstration of support for ukraine by any of its allies so far. it comes at a time when the ukrainians are pretty happy with the level of solidarity and assistance they are getting from the uk. let's not forget the main show will be whatever the americans and russians are saying to each other and on that brand we know sergey lavrov, the russian foreign minister and anthony blinken, the us minister of state, will be speaking tomorrow. there are some signs the russians are willing to engage with the americans on washington's proposals regarding european security. there is a possible meeting at the un security council this afternoon if the russians do not succeed in blocking it. it could be an ugly show and it will not resolve anything. finally, along with the diplomacy, a few more sticks, liz truss this afternoon due to unveil some new tougher sanctions, which she says will target those who are key to the creme and's continuation. vladimir putin's spokesman has called those

but were crushed by the military using indiscriminate violence. as our south east asia correspondent jonathan head reports, growing numbers of people are now either fleeing the country, or taking up arms in what is becoming an escalating civil war. until a year ago people in myanmar still believed in a better future. that has now been stolen, they say, by the same soldiers who ruined their past. millions have been caught up in the struggle to overturn the coup. mo is one of them. she led the first protests by yangon's factory workers. today, though, she is in thailand where she has fled with her family. translation: when we first heard about the coup -

everyone was devastated. i was worried about my workers, that they might be shot, beaten or imprisoned, but my fears vanished once i was on the streets. as we marched and chanted the overwhelming participation of the people, their emotions and their support, gave us courage. back then their inspiration was still aung san suu kyi, though she was detained by the coup leaders. she has always advocated non—violent resistance and for weeks huge street rallies remained peaceful. but the military gunned them down anyway. some of the worst violence was in mo's neighbourhood. she fled before she could be arrested. so many burmese have lost faith in peaceful protest.

there has been a steady escalation of bombings, shootings and sometimes full—scale gun battles, drawing in volunteers from all walks of life. i met george and frank. we can't use their real names. george used to be a business executive and frank worked in a cafe. but today they are learning to fight with an ethnic insurgent group near the thai border. i have to tell them that, ok, please accept us to get the training and we will also try our best to recruit more people. what about weapons? can you get weapons? no, not at all because we can't afford that. so you have to pay for your own guns? yes, i have to pay for my own guns, so we have to link with some people from the black market.

it's a tough new world for these city boys turned jungle warriors. george was injured in battle late last year and hasn't yet seen his youngest daughter. what do you think about the soldiers, about the soldiers, they are burmese people like you? of course they do have their own families too, like me, i have a newborn baby, but soldiers are soldiers. and you are prepared to kill them? if necessary, not willingly, if necessary. to fight, flee or surrender, that is the stark choice now confronting so many people in myanmar. mo says she is committed to the struggle against military rule, but she must do it now from another country. jonathan head, bbc news, on the thai—burmese border. a british woman has overturned her conviction for wasting police time in cyprus which she was given

is the only place to hear his show which is downloaded an estimated 200 million times a month. but his mix of interviews and opinion is not to everyone's taste. # don't always seem to go, you don't know what you got its gone...# got till its gone...# two music legends, joni mitchell and neil young, have successfully had many of their classic albums removed from spotify because they sayjoe rogan's show is the home of life—threatening covid misinformation. nowjoe rogan is fighting back. he has taken to social media to explain why he interviewed two doctors who question vaccinating children. both these people are very highly credentialled, very intelligent, very accomplished people and they have an opinion that is different from the mainstream narrative. i wanted to hear what their opinion is. the problem i have with the term "misinformation", especially today, is that many of the things that we thought of as misinformation just a short while ago are now accepted as fact. spotify have now published their platform rules for the first time and say that podcasts will have a content advisory warning when they discuss covid—19

and they will have a covid—19 hub to combat misinformation. just a slight adjustment of several words is hat it's allowing is forjoe rogan not to have his pod touched or taken down or isolated episodes, the devil is in the detail as it pertains tojoe rogan and people still are not happy with the actions that spotify has taken. indeed, one of spotify�*s other high—profile signings, the duke and duchess of sussex, have also voiced their concerns to spotify but will keep working with the streaming giant. joe rogan's later statement did contain one glaring piece of misinformation. he said that he was a joni mitchell fan and loved her song chuck e's in love. chuck e's in love. unfortunately for him that was by rickie leejones. colin patterson, bbc news. it's believed around a million women in britain are at risk through problem gambling.

the charity gamble—aware has now launched its first campaign aimed specifically at women, warning of the dangers and where to seek help. jon donnison has that story. it has never been easier to gamble, online apps so much more accessible than the old high street betting shops. this new research says it's one factor and has seen a sharp rise in the number of women with gambling issues. it estimates as many as 2.5 million british women experience some level of problem gambling. of those, around 1 million are causing themselves moderate harm and out of that figure half a million are experiencing serious harm. i ended up having to remortgage my house, then after i remortgaged my house i ended up spending that money and then unfortunately when the children were ten and 11 i ended up homeless without anything. then i ended up in a hostel with them.

this video showing how all—consuming online gambling can be as part of gamble aware's new campaign to encourage women who think they might have a problem to seek help. that is what lisa did and she now runs support groups for other women. i understand about gambling and i understand where it takes people and so i think women can come in, talk about their problems, you know, just feel empowered and just give them that bit of hope that you can overcome a gambling addiction. gamble aware says the number of women gambling online rose sharply during the pandemic with many people stuck at home during lockdowns. it says three key signs you might have a problem are losing track of time while gambling, spending more than you can afford and keeping your habit secret from those around you. jon donnison, bbc news. in football the transfer window closes today and the premier league
