6:01 am
the regulator ofgem has warned suppliers not to use the cap increase as a chance to overcharge. how do you know if that includes you? i'll take a look. and remembering those lost on hms sheffield — a memorial to the sunken falklands warship will be unveiled today. the champions league final awaits. liverpool knock out vilareal to reach the paris final. and with one trophy already in the bag, just how many more will they add? good morning. some mist and fog to watch _ good morning. some mist and fog to watch out _ good morning. some mist and fog to watch out for the first thing this morning — watch out for the first thing this morning. also a band of rain pushing east _ morning. also a band of rain pushing east as_ morning. also a band of rain pushing east as it _ morning. also a band of rain pushing east. as it clears the sun will come out behind — east. as it clears the sun will come out behind. that could trigger heavy showers _ out behind. that could trigger heavy showers. all the details later in the programme. it's wednesday, the 4th of may. our main story. hundreds of civilians remain trapped
6:02 am
inside a steel plant in mariupol after more than 150 people were able to escape the besieged city yesterday during a brief ceasefire. mark lobel reports. the relentless attack on mariupol�*s steel plant, an industrial heartland with its heart ripped out. a ukrainian military commander says, as part of that assault, russians are attempting to land soldiers by boat. one of the 100,000 residents stuck nearby remains helpless. i don't know where to go at all. i am not alone. imagine — everything is destroyed. i've got nowhere to go. a brief ceasefire had allowed some to escape the steelworks after two months of what must have been their darkest days. how we were living... to be honest, it was horrible. from morning until night, we were bombarded. we lived in hope that every day. would be the last day in this hell, that we would go home to a peaceful mariupol. i
6:03 am
but now it is non—existent. the operation to free these women and children has been full of false dawns. now, finally, a chance to step into the light. translation: today, 156 people arrived in zaporizhia. _ women and children. they were in bunkers for more than two months. without a doubt, we'll continue doing everything we can to get all our people out of mariupol. out of azovstal. it's hard, but we need everyone. civilian and military. after a week's lull, the return of missile strikes in ukraine's west. in lviv, power stations were pounded. its mayor says electricity was cut off in a few districts with outages at some medicalfacilities. the search for justice also continues. ukraine's prosecutors say the first russian serviceman suspected
6:04 am
of being involved in the murders of hundreds of civilians here in the town of bucha has been identified. but the daily misery for many continues, whether trapped, targeted or living in terror. mark lobel, bbc news. 0ur correspondentjoe inwood is in the city of lviv this morning, which has been hit by a number of russian missiles for the first time in over a week. joe, what's the latest? yes, this is a city that often feels quite removed from the war. i was out with some colleagues in the centre of the city having dinner when a missile struck. a cameraman said i thought i heard something in the distance and suddenly there was a change in mood, everyone stopped talking and there was a hushed over the city. turns out that is exactly
6:05 am
what happened. three missiles may be more landed at places around the city. we think electrical substations were hit and this has left parts of lviv without power, and without water and medical facilities as well. we think it is probably targeting rail infrastructure. the rail infrastructure. the rail infrastructure in the west of this country has been crucial in getting heavy weaponry, getting equipment thatis heavy weaponry, getting equipment that is so important in the fight in the east. this is where it is coming through. we are seeing reports of why that matters so much. we understand there was a russian shelling in a town north of occupied donetsk. yesterday was the highest civilian death toll. borisjohnson was saying they are sending more equipment and today we find out why they need it.
6:06 am
it's the final day of campaigning ahead of the local elections tomorrow. seats are up for grabs in every scottish and welsh council. 90 members will be voted to the legislative assembly in northern ireland. and in england, voters will choose 4,000 councillors in 146 local authorities. 0ur political correspondent alex forsyth takes a look. who do you believe? cast your mind back four or five years. politically, things looked very different. theresa may was prime minister, jeremy corbyn was the labour leader. we were still in the eu and few of us had ever heard of coronavirus. that was the last time these elections took place. so how much have public views changed? well, tomorrow we'll find out. in northern ireland, people will be voting for the government. there are 90 seats up for grabs at stormont. these are the results from 2017, the last time these elections took place. then the dup, a unionist party, won one more seat than sinn fein, a nationalist party. recent polls have suggested sinn fein could take the lead for the first time this time.
6:07 am
so this is a crucial contest. in england, 146 councils are being contested. that includes all 32 london boroughs, plus most other big towns and cities. there aren't many elections in rural areas. there are also a handful of mayoral elections. it's all about who runs local services. but for some voters we've spoken to in recent weeks, the big picture counts, too. inflation is going mad, and especially for fuel prices, for public transport, it's going absolutely insane. items we buy have gone more than 100% increase in price. boris, yes, he's had his parties. even though it's not right, - i'm sure it's not been on his own. i'm just appalled that anybody, you know, in any position could think that it's right to actually have drinks at work. for local elections, i do tend to think a bit more locally. i'm working and i should be able
6:08 am
to be saving so much money. i but i physically cannot. because, like, everything is just so expensive. in scotland, every local authority, 32 in total is up for election this year, and in wales, all 22 local authorities are being contested and these will be the first local elections in which 16 and 17—year—olds can vote. so across the uk, there's a lot at stake. if you really want to understand what's happened, the real evidence will lie in comparing the votes that the parties get tomorrow with the votes they got in the same councils last year. in many, many places, that comparison will be possible. to find out what's happening in your area, or who you might be able to vote for, visit bbc.co.uk/news for all the information you need. alex forsyth, bbc news. 0ur chief political correspondent joins us now from westminster. adam, how are things looking this morning as we head
6:09 am
into the final day of campaigning? yes, the final furlong for a very complicated set of elections. i think we will see party leaders at the big westminster party sending the big westminster party sending the same message they had throughout the same message they had throughout the campaign. labour, liberal democrats and the snp saying the government does not have answers to the biggest problem on people's mines, the cost of living. the conservatives saying they blocked some answers but stay tuned because there will be more help more support for people coming later in the year. in terms of working out what is happening, results will come through on friday morning and throughout the day on friday with more on saturday. the key thing will be when this apologist, the people who study voting patterns and how people have behaved come up with what they call the projected national share, what would happen if there were a general election happening everywhere in the country and sending mps to the house
6:10 am
of commons. that is when we will get a really clear idea is that there will be key places to look out for. a couple of big london councils that are highly symbolic for the conservatives. will they change hands after being conservative for ages? will labour be able to take back some areas that used to be heartlands in the north and the midlands which have not been doing so well in the last few years? do the conservatives come under threat in the south from the liberal democrats and the greens as well? i think if you conservative mps will be looking how well they had done on friday and working out whether they want to move against borisjohnson, although that is probablyjust a handful rather than a wave of conservatives doing that. in terms of the conservatives overall, the biggest constitutional thing will be what is happening in northern ireland. the rules are potentially going to come under a lot of strain
6:11 am
in the good friday agreement in the next few weeks. he in the good friday agreement in the next few weeks.— next few weeks. he mentioned cephology- _ next few weeks. he mentioned cephology- it — next few weeks. he mentioned cephology- it is _ next few weeks. he mentioned cephology. it is after _ next few weeks. he mentioned cephology. it is after the - next few weeks. he mentioned cephology. it is after the greek word for pebbles. that cephology. it is after the greek word for pebbles.— cephology. it is after the greek word for pebbles. that is so good, i am doinu word for pebbles. that is so good, i am doing celebrity _ word for pebbles. that is so good, i am doing celebrity mastermind - word for pebbles. that is so good, i am doing celebrity mastermind in l word for pebbles. that is so good, i am doing celebrity mastermind in a j am doing celebrity mastermind in a couple of weeks. if am doing celebrity mastermind in a couple of weeks.— am doing celebrity mastermind in a couple of weeks. if that comes up, i will celebrate _ couple of weeks. if that comes up, i will celebrate wildly. _ couple of weeks. if that comes up, i will celebrate wildly. see _ couple of weeks. if that comes up, i will celebrate wildly. see you - will celebrate wildly. see you later. very clever, the way you googled that quickly. so clever the way i found that on the computer, the internet. at least i admitted it. at least you knew there was a silent p start. you must have known it subliminally. so we stopped talking about this and go straight to carol? —— shall we stop talking about this?
6:12 am
today we are looking at sunny skies and heavy showers. we have rain as well. the other thing to look out for today's mist and fog. there is poor visibility this morning especially across devon and call more. some of the showers this afternoon will be heavy and thundery but they are hit and miss and a lot of us will miss them. you can see the rain sally is talking about. behind it there is clear skies with bigger cloud across western scotland and northern ireland producing drizzle. then you can make out in the charts, in eastern scotland, north—east england, this is where we are expecting a heavy, potentially thundery showers. further west it will be largely dry. temperatures today ten to 17. as we head on through the evening and overnight here are the showers. eventually they will clear away from the south—east. there will be clear skies with mist and fog patches forming. by the end of the night
6:13 am
figure clad will be moving in across western scotland with northern ireland introducing some rain. cooler than the one just gone. you can see all of this air pumping out from the south—west. it will be warmer than today. the highest temperatures in the south of england and wales seen a fair bit of sunshine with fair weather cloud developing through the day. in northern ireland and scotland, the keg clad with splashes of rain. temperatures 17. somewhere in the south—east we could hit 72 fahrenheit 22 celsius. we south-east we could hit 72 fahrenheit 22 celsius. we love a bit of old money! _ it's 6:13am. for those of us receiving an energy bill this month, it'll be the first time we'll have seen one since the energy price cap increased by about 50%. however, some breakfast viewers have
6:14 am
told us their direct debits have actually gone up by as much as 300%. nina's got all the details. we saw this coming from the beginning of the year. we expected a big increase. people are weighing up how high is too high. how high is too high? that is what a lot of you have in telling us. —— that's what lots of you have been telling us. now, the regulator is investigating. 0n the 1st of april, the price cap went up to just under two grand. a 54% increase. remember, this is the maximum you should be paying annually by direct debit for using the average amount of energy. but lots of you are telling us your monthly increase is above that 54% cap rise. christine says her supplier wants her direct debit to go up by 300%. she's a disabled pensioner and is currently being treated for cancer. she's hoping for sunny days so she can keep the heating off. theresa e—mailed us to say her payments are 138% higher.
6:15 am
she's a widow with just a small pension and no access to benefits. she doesn't know how she can cope. so is this allowed? yes, in certain circumstances. like, if you are with a new supplier you may owe them from your old account. if you're using more energy, or if a fixed deal has come to an end, and suppliers do generally charge more in the summer to help cover the winter. what suppliers can't do is put up your direct debits to raise money for their balance sheets. this is the formal notice that 0fgem has sent to suppliers. if they are found to have broken the rules they could face heavy fines. so what should you do if you think you're overpaying? if your direct debit has gone up by more _ if your direct debit has gone up by more than — if your direct debit has gone up by more than the 50% you would expect, i would _ more than the 50% you would expect, i would ask— more than the 50% you would expect, i would ask my energy company for an explanation _ i would ask my energy company for an explanation of why. it may be that you have _ explanation of why. it may be that you have come of the end of a fixed

6:17 am
potentially buy just as potentially buyjust as much. we would love to hear your experiences on this this morning. maybe your bills have gone up but you are unsure why they are that high. at the moment people are not quite sure what is normal and what is not. the warning back in the autumn we will see the cab go up again. difficult to budget for stuff. it is. especially with inflation being at 7%. when you go to the supermarket you are never sure what you are paying for the weekly shop. let's take a look at today's papers. and as we've just been hearing, some front pages carry the news that a number of energy suppliers have been given a three—week deadline to explain their direct debit increases. they report that some suppliers could face "substantial fines." the guardian leads on reaction in the us to a leaked draft supreme court ruling, which would overturn a case dating
6:18 am
back to the 19705 that has been seen to guarantee the right to abortion in the us. it's a story that also features on the front of the independent. both papers also carries a photograph of protesters facing each other outside the us supreme court. and the bbc news and sport websites report on the death of tony brooks, hailed as one of the defining formula 1 drivers of the 19505. his daughter announced that he has died, aged 90. that is on bbc news. a little story about robot _ that is on bbc news. a little story about robot chefs. _ that is on bbc news. a little story about robot chefs. the _ that is on bbc news. a little story about robot chefs. the demise - that is on bbc news. a little story about robot chefs. the demise ofl about robot chefs. the demise of chef is closer than ever, says the times. robots already have the ability to determine the saltiness of static food humans taste while chewing which alters the flavour. the university of cambridge programmed robot is able to judge whether the dish is sufficiently seasoned. they tested it out on scrambled eggs and tomatoes. now you
6:19 am
have tested me. the university has devised a robot chef to create a dish of scrambled egg and tomatoes. current tests take a single snapshot from a homogenised sample. they wanted to replicate the process of chewing. robots are able to understand the concept of taste and they had to produce meals. can't we just had a human chef? do you want me to get rid of the story? there are too many robot things. we want to grumpy human chef who throws stuff and loses their temper. i quite like that. this is the cutest picture in the paper today. do you recognise that pout? it is related to the great les dawson, who is known for his gurning. that is the
6:20 am
son of charlotte dawson. he is all over it. one treat for you later, we are talking about football memorabilia. the shirt that maradona wore for the famous handful god moment is estimated to go for at least £4 million. 0ne moment is estimated to go for at least £4 million. one of the england players in that game steve hodge did a share swap with maradona. 0ur producer asked if he had any football memorabilia to bring in. i had brought something in and i think you will enjoy it. it is a shout that very different from what you would normally expect. do we have a picture of you in this shirt? they will have a picture of both of us in that shirt. you may remember a few weeks ago we spoke to sue graham, the mother of nikki graham, the big brother star who died last year after living with anorexia
6:21 am
for most of her life. sue told us about her fight to get help for nikki, and now the charity beat says medical staff need better training in how to treat eating disorders. 0ur correspondent zoe conway has been hearing the experience of one woman, who has recovered from the condition. when you restrict your food intake, it numbs you. and so anorexia is a functional illness. it's a way to cope with difficult feelings or beliefs or anything that's going on for you. joss was anorexic for five years. she says it was a way of coping with the sexual abuse she suffered as a child by a non—family member. i was quite skeletal. i wasjust... i was just very depressed. i would just pace around the house all day. my day was just pretty much filled with numbers. i couldn't really take in much information. it was all about just like the exercise i was doing, the food i was eating, keeping lots ofjournals about the food i was eating, and then just kind of burning off the calories. her family knew nothing of the abuse. the illness came out of the blue.
6:22 am
it was just an incredible shock. walking into this house, it just feels like such a loving family environment. oh, it's a complete shock. i thought these things happen to other people, not to you. l and yeah, we just never saw it coming at all. - when suddenly they say, ifjoss can put on so much weight a week, - and i was doing the maths, and i was thinking, "well, i to get to the target weight, - that's going to be three months. and you have this sudden moment. this isn't a quick fix. this is something we're living with. oh, my earring! nicki graham lived with anorexia for 30 years. she said that when she entered the big brother house in 2006, she felt finally accepted. she certainly won the hearts of the audience, but those that knew nikki say she never really believed that she was loved. the anorexia that would kill her took over her life when she was just eight years old.
6:23 am
her mother, sue, told breakfast last month that nikki became so weak she couldn't go to school. so i took her down to the doctors because she couldn't walk. and i said, "my daughter needs a hospital and she needs it now." i said, "it's friday. i will sit here all weekend. i'm not going anywhere until you get my girl a bed. and if anything happens, i'm blaming you." and so it was always a battle. so i think they're going to do some kayaking or some paddleboarding. swimming? maybe. the walden family say that they, too, felt that as soon as joss turned 18, the intensive support she'd been receiving fell away. i think that a lot of time and money was wasted byjust not having this coherent strategy of taking someone right through the process. so, for instance, joss went in for an in patients, and then when she came out, there was a sizeable gap before she was seen by an outpatient service. and in that time there
6:24 am
was a lot of slippage. and things can slip very, very fast with an eating disorder. joss feared for her own life. she grew increasingly desperate. i sought out my gp�*s number of her own home, and ijust rang her at her home one evening and kind of put my foot down, and said, "look, i'm really scared for my life and i really need you to advocate for me, to fight for me, because the services just keep putting me on waiting lists and just keep telling me either your weight�*s not low enough or we don't have room for you." the charity beat says medical schools need to do a betterjob of teaching doctors about how to treat eating disorders. at the moment, two thirds of people who go to their gp report that they don't get the referral for assessment, that they should get. that the nice guidelines say they should get. so the medical professionals, they want to do a good job, but the system that's letting them down and eating disorders patients down is the medical training establishment because that's not doing itsjob properly.
6:25 am
the general medical council says that eating disorders are a complex, high—risk area of practice that should be covered in every doctor's education. we've asked medical schools to develop a common approach to improve how eating disorders are taught at medical school. after finally getting the therapy she needed, joss has turned her life around. she's now working for the nhs as a psychologist. i am very, very proud ofjoss. she's come so far, you know. she's accomplished so much. i don't know how to put it into words, really. we really are enormously proud of her. zoe conway, bbc news. good to see a happy ending to that story. you can find details of organisations offering help and support to those living
6:26 am
with eating disorders, and their loves ones on the bbc�*s action line website. just head to bbc.co.uk/actionline. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm frankie mccamley. today is the final day for those applying to become the met police commissioner. former commissioner dame cressida dick stepped down last month, following a string of controversies around racism and sexism in the force. the successful candidate will be announced later this summer. the salary is nearly £30,000 if you're interested in buying. a london academy trust has said it plans to teach british sign language to all 4,500 of its pupils. the ivy learning trust has ten schools in north london and hertfordshire, with anotherfour
6:27 am
joining in september. it started teaching the language at its school in enfield, and teachers found it had a significant impact on learning and behaviour. it's better to learn bsl than modern foreign languages, because here we have so many deaf people, i feel they're left out of conversations. ever fancied getting your hands on a piece of footballing history? well, today is the closing day of the auction for the shirt diego maradona wore in argentina's world cup win over england in 1986. it was put up for auction by former england player steve hodge, who got the shirt after the match in mexico. it has already reached its reserve of £5 million at sotheby�*s. 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
6:28 am
on the tubes this morning — just that ongoing part closure on the northern line. 0nto the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. well, it's set to turn warmer and brighter across the capital from tomorrow, with high pressure building in. and it does look like a lovely weekend of weather ahead. but some showers to get through first today. already quite showery out there at the moment. it is a mild start to the morning. temperatures are in high single figures and low double figures. there'll be lots of cloud around for much of the first half of the day, and it is looking mostly dry until we get to the afternoon. it'll brighten up for a short while, then a line of heavy, possibly thundery downpours, some quite sharp showers moving through as we head through the afternoon and into the evening. temperatures not doing too badly, though, 16 or 17 degrees celsius in the best of those sunny spells. 0ur showers will clear through as we head through this evening and overnight, to leave us with clear skies. temperatures are likely to drop a little bit lower tonight, down to six or seven degrees celsius. but a lovely day of weather tomorrow, with high pressure building in.
6:29 am
it's dry and there will be a lot of sunshine around as well. highs of 20 or 21 degrees celsius. on friday, again it should be mostly dry, some sunshine to start with, then clouding over, some showers as we head through the evening. just before we go, a reminder that tomorrow, all 32 london borough councils are taking part in local elections. for more information on the issues and how to vote, head to the bbc london website, the address is on your screen now. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast with sally nugent and dan walker. coming up on breakfast this morning... maradona's football shirt worn during his famous �*hand of god' goal is up for auction today — we'll be hearing how it's likely to become the most valuable piece
6:30 am
of sports memorabilia ever sold. we'll meet the tik tok study buddy, who livestreams his homework sessions to thousands of followers online. and we'll hear from 12—year—old lucy—marie, who has written a book about living with tourette's syndrome, to help other children with the condition. millions of women across the united states could lose their legal right to abortion, after it was confirmed a leaked document from the supreme court was genuine. the leak suggests that the current abortion ruling could be overturned, allowing individual states to then ban it. abortion has been a legal right across the us for almost 50 years under the roe vs wade decision. 0ur north america correspondent nomia iqbal reports. abortion is violent! it's a decision that many pro—choice campaigners had feared. and whilst it's not the final decision, people have
6:31 am
been having their say, including vice president kamala harris. those republican leaders who are trying to weaponise the use of the law against women, will we say, how dare they? how dare they tell a woman what she can do and cannot do with her own body? applause. how dare they? how dare they try to stop her from determining her own future? how dare they try to deny women their rights and their freedoms? this is all happening because the supreme court of nine justices, who serve life terms, have been asked to rule on a law in the state of mississippi. that law directly challenges roe v wade. the bench has a conservative majority, which is in favour of rolling back abortion rights. if the court is successful, nearly half of america could ban abortion. 13 states have so—called trigger laws. another 13 would automatically ban,
6:32 am
or severely limit access. 36 million women of reproductive age would live in places without abortion services. following the leak of the draft, there have been many protests in states like florida, where a restrictive law has already been signed which will ban abortion at 15 weeks. but pro—choice campaigners are worried that if roe v wade is overturned, states like these will ban abortion outright. we need to make sure that people are aware that abortion remains legal. people can still access abortion care, and this fight is not over. you can stay at school and have a baby. you can have a job and have a baby. as an adult woman, when birth control failed me, my husband| and i made the choice i to have a legal abortion. and i'm horrified about that decision would be strippedl away from my grandsons and granddaughters. - polls consistently suggest most americans want to keep roe v wade in place. but it's not what everyone wants.
6:33 am
i'm pro—life. and i've made that very clear from the moment i announced my candidacy. and i believe that what we found during the campaign, and even through today, is that there is a lot of common ground on this topic. we want fewer abortions in virginia, not more. it is very rare that rulings made by the supreme court are made public ahead of time, and draft opinions can change. the court will release its final decision over the summer. nomia iqbal, bbc news, north america. we're joined now by law professor caprice roberts, who is in washington. good morning. just talk us through what is happening at the moment? 0bviously what is happening at the moment? obviously the system in the states is very different to the uk. just explain why this is happening now? sure. it is wonderful to be with you this morning. good morning. as your

extent— since 1973. we had that to some extent nuanced in a letter opinion in 1992— extent nuanced in a letter opinion in 1992 but— extent nuanced in a letter opinion in 1992 but ultimately affirmed by the in1992 but ultimately affirmed by the us— in 1992 but ultimately affirmed by the us supreme court, which basically— the us supreme court, which basically means in every state across — basically means in every state across this country of the united states. — across this country of the united states, that women have the ability to choose _ states, that women have the ability to choose whether or not to keep or terminate _ to choose whether or not to keep or terminate a — to choose whether or not to keep or terminate a pregnancy, and stays —— each _ terminate a pregnancy, and stays —— each individual state does not have the ability — each individual state does not have the ability to ban that or prohibit it in any— the ability to ban that or prohibit it in any severe way. and so, if we do have _ it in any severe way. and so, if we do have this — it in any severe way. and so, if we do have this unravelling, what ultimately the draft opinion calls for, ultimately the draft opinion calls for. it— ultimately the draft opinion calls for. it is— ultimately the draft opinion calls for, it is really is and bending. he talks— for, it is really is and bending. he talks about — for, it is really is and bending. he talks about in the opinion it being something that isjust talks about in the opinion it being something that is just a talks about in the opinion it being something that isjust a moral decision— something that isjust a moral decision that needs to be returned to the _ decision that needs to be returned to the states. but it also calls roe v wade _ to the states. but it also calls roe v wade egregiously wrongly decided, misinterpretation of the constitution. there is both a face on ending — constitution. there is both a face on ending of prior constitutional liberty— on ending of prior constitutional liberty presidents, and there is this leaking by the supreme court
6:36 am
where _ this leaking by the supreme court where feelings of real disappointment with the process and we need _ disappointment with the process and we need to— disappointment with the process and we need to see what will happen with the actual— we need to see what will happen with the actual opinion, which, as was said, _ the actual opinion, which, as was said. witt— the actual opinion, which, as was said, will not occur untiljune or july when — said, will not occur untiljune or july when we get the published version — july when we get the published version. votes can still change untit— version. votes can still change until the — version. votes can still change until the ultimate opinion comes from _ until the ultimate opinion comes from the — until the ultimate opinion comes from the court. this has been authenticated as a true draft. that isjust— authenticated as a true draft. that isjust exactly what authenticated as a true draft. that is just exactly what it authenticated as a true draft. that isjust exactly what it means. a draft _ isjust exactly what it means. a draft means they can still try to lobby— draft means they can still try to lobby or— draft means they can still try to lobby orjockey within the nine justices — lobby orjockey within the nine justices dcf perhaps chiefjustice roberts— justices dcf perhaps chiefjustice roberts could get somebody to compromise and come to the middle. -- to— compromise and come to the middle. -- to see _ compromise and come to the middle. -- to see but— compromise and come to the middle. —— to see. but the fear of some ways that this _ —— to see. but the fear of some ways that this will — —— to see. but the fear of some ways that this will be the majority, and the hope — that this will be the majority, and the hope of some is that this will be the _ the hope of some is that this will be the majority, because of course the country — be the majority, because of course the country are somewhat torn about this issue _ the country are somewhat torn about this issue. ., ., ., ,., ., this issue. you hit on an important oint. this issue. you hit on an important point- the — this issue. you hit on an important point. the country _ this issue. you hit on an important point. the country is _ this issue. you hit on an important point. the country is incredibly - point. the country is incredibly divided. do you know how many states would potentially want to overturn roe v wade?— roe v wade? sure. there have certainly been _ roe v wade? sure. there have certainly been some _ roe v wade? sure. there have certainly been some counts. i roe v wade? sure. there have - certainly been some counts. some have _ certainly been some counts. some have the _ certainly been some counts. some have the trigger laws in place

6:39 am
riding on these big moments. the decisions he made, made a difference. he brought on lucas diaz, stellar signing. unbelievable strength in depth. they are in the final. their third in five seasons.— third in five seasons. what is amazing- _ third in five seasons. what is amazing- it _ third in five seasons. what is amazing. it could _ third in five seasons. what is amazing. it could be - third in five seasons. what is amazing. it could be an - third in five seasons. what is amazing. it could be an all. third in five seasons. what is - amazing. it could be an all english affair of manchester city can win. yes, we waited to see. it was never going to be straightforward challenging for silverware on four fronts. and despite a first half scare, where villarreal levelled the tie, liverpool are into the champions league final 5—2 on aggregate. and with one trophy in the bag, how many more will they add with six games remaining? 0lly foster reports. a champions league semifinal should be tough. that's whatjurgen klopp said going into last night's game. not this tough. if not the scoreline, then the relief at full—time said it all. you could see how impressed we were in the first half, and then coming back like we came back in the second half is really special.
6:40 am
with 500 games, like it feels with the boys played, it's completely normal that a thing like in the first half can happen. but reacting like we reacted made it really special again. and i'm really happy about it. villarreal played like men possessed, knowing they had to score at least twice. the first came inside four minutes, dia finished off an exquisite move. rather than react, liverpool retreated. the former arsenal midfielder francis coquelin levelled the tie and sent the villarreal fans into delirium. liverpool's players looked lost. they were much better after the break. they had to be. fabinho put them ahead on aggregate with a shot that went through the keeper's legs. the substitute, luis diaz, pulled the same trick. liverpool had their two goal cushion back. their place in another champions league final was sealed when sadio mane rounded the keeper, and rounded off the night. well, liverpool had an almighty scare here this evening. but that quest for the quadruple is still intact, and attention now
6:41 am
turns to the spanish capital. will it be real madrid or manchester city that they face in that paris final later this month? 0lly foster, bbc news, villarreal. well, as 0lly was saying there, manchester city could well join them in the final. they face real madrid tonight, with a 4—3 advantage from the first leg. city have never won the champions league. it's the one piece of silverware that manager pep guardiola is yet to achieve with the club. they came close last season but, you'll remember, they lost out to another british side, chelsea in the final. after two seasons away, bournemouth are back in the big time, promoted to the premier league. kieffer moore, their striker, who recovered from a broken foot just in time to help their promotoin push, with the goal that sealed it against nottingham forest. he gets to play in the premier league for the first time, a really special momet for the fans. and it avoids it going down to the last game of the season. the nottingham forest defender steve cook, who used to play for bournemouth, thanked paramedics
6:42 am
for saving his dad's life before the game last night. cook said his dad had suffered a cardiac arrest at the stadium, but that paramedics managed to bring him back to life. he said he'll forever be grateful for their actions. emma raducanu is out of the madrid 0pen, after losing her third round match to world number 37 anhelina kalinina. the ukrainian took the first set 6—2, but raducanu, having taken a medical timeout for a back injury, forced a decider. kalinina, who hadn't beaten any players ranked inside the top 15 prior to this week, found her poise in the decider, winning 6—4 and sending the british number one out of the tournament. fellow brit andy murray had a better night. he produced a spirited performance to beat canada's denis shapovalov in three sets. murray's reward for the victory is a match with world number one novak djokovic in the third round. and tony brooks, one of formula 0ne's defining drivers of the 19505, has died. he was 90.
6:43 am
the british driver was won of the most successful of his era, winning 5ix grands prix, and narrowly missed out on the world championship in 1959. he is regarded alongside moss as the best british driver never to win the f1 title. when the warrington wolves winger josh charnley received a death threat from a fan online, the club banned the person, but also arranged a meeting between him and josh. it gavejosh the opportunity to explain the impact the tweet had on him and his family. i've been to speak with josh, and his wife zoe. we put our bodies on the line for this club. i don't know why i was targeted. not nice to see that when you open twitter and that were the top comment. i don't want to be getting comments like that, and, you know, my family feeling that i'm in danger. for years, rugby league player josh charnley has faced abuse from the stands.
6:44 am
but it became much darker when a tweet forced the club to act. i know we was in a bit of a rut, playing, getting beat. but, you know, when you check social media and that was there, it shocked me at first. people watching this must be thinking, you're going to work, you're doing yourjob, you do not expect to see something like that. we don't go out there every week to get beat. at the minute social media is easy to direct contact with someone. so we're trying to tackle it and we need to put a stop to it all. the club arranged forjo5h and the person who sent the tweet to meet. do you think it's a good way of tackling the abuse online, if you can meet the person responsible? 100%, yeah. i don't... they won't say it in person to you. like, he wouldn't have said that to me up be in that room, not a chance.
6:45 am
he was shaking. he were, like — you could see he felt embarrassed about it. but, yeah, you could meet them, you could get your point across to them, which i did. and hopefully, he took it on the chin. what everyone doesn't see is the impact the abuse can have on players' families. sometimes i think fans forget that they actually are human and they've got lives as well. and they're very focused on the sport, which i do get as well, but i don't think they sometimes see what we see at home as partners and things, especially when it's been so easy these days for people to just pick up the phone and write whatever they want, not think about the consequences. i'm a rugby player and a dad and a husband. i'm like three people who, i've got a... if i've played a game, i can't come home and 5ulk, because i've got mi55u5 and all, and axel to look after. do you think, in your experience, it's getting worse,
6:46 am
the abuse players are facing? i feel like it's always probably been there, but i feel like it's a lot easier for people to just put it out there because of things like social media. it makes you worry because you don't know these people, so you don't know if they're going to actually do something. we've never met him or seen him before. you don't know if he's actually going to do anything to these threats that he's put on social media. it's not nice for his parents to see. like, he's got a lot of people that care about him. you got a lot of messages though, didn't you? yeah. i had some of the other wives message me and see how i was, which i thought was really nice. warrington have obviously highlighted this incident quite severely, because it's like a death threat. well, it is a death threat. but the fact that they've highlighted that and let fans know thatjosh has been to meet him, they've talked it out. but like, although you've got that one death threat, the amount of fans that did come through and message you to see
6:47 am
if you was all right. i mean, we had a lot — and i mean, a lot — of messages from fans, like, even non—warrington fans, didn't you? yeah. they're all out there to look out foryou, but, yeah you can't be doing what this kid's done. josh and his family have accepted the apology of the person responsible. the club say they'll continue to work with the league to tackle abuse aimed at players. it is an interesting idea. you kind of think about online abuse. 0ne it is an interesting idea. you kind of think about online abuse. one of the main fuse is you are just not sure who is sending that a tweet or who is behind it. that is the thing with social media. it is anonymous. in this instance you can meet the person responsible. that will allay the fears for your family, because immediately that is your concern, your loved ones. but also, the opportunity for the person responsible to admit they made a
6:48 am
mistake and to learn something and apologise. both sides can gain from that. , ., , ., apologise. both sides can gain from that. , ., , that. often when you show somebody the im act that. often when you show somebody the impact something _ that. often when you show somebody the impact something they _ that. often when you show somebody the impact something they has - that. often when you show somebody the impact something they has done l the impact something they has done has had on people, most people will 90. has had on people, most people will go, they regretted. this has had on people, most people will go. they regretted-— go, they regretted. this was obviously — go, they regretted. this was obviously a _ go, they regretted. this was obviously a moment - go, they regretted. this was obviously a moment of- go, they regretted. this was - obviously a moment of stupidity in this instance. being able to talk it through has reconciled the situation. i think both parties have certainly got something out of it. john, thank you. i haveju5t seen carol's picture. 0h, carol's picture. oh, my goodness! what are you doing to us? good morning. it is quite a misty and foggy start for some. a5 good morning. it is quite a misty and foggy start for some. as you can see from our weather watchers picture in buckinghamshire. somewhere else where visibility is pooras somewhere else where visibility is poor as part of devon and cornwall. this front has brought heavy rain overnight for some. the second one is going to bring in some potent showers later. we have got all this rain moving from the west toward the

6:53 am
by an argentinian exocet missile. it became the first british ship to be lost in combat since world war two, and the first of four to be sunk in the falklands war. if you imagine a missile, you're expecting a bang. no bang. andy stevenson was just 18 years old at the time. he was part of hms sheffield's logistics staff, and one of the vessel's crew of around 280 sailors. the ship was named after his home city. it was just this — it was like a massive blast of air that blew me out of my bunk. amid the chaos and confusion, andy was asked to provide a list of surviving crew members. what i didn't realise, until i went around the second time, was that i'd left my own name off the list. so at about two or three
6:54 am
in the morning on probably may 5. there was a knock at my parents' door with a policeman and a vicar, saying, "unfortunately, your son's missing, presumed dead." i name this ship sheffield. the 4,100 tonne warship had been launched by the queen in 1971, before the falklands war began, it was on its way home after a six month overseas deployment. the attack was a retaliation following the sinking of the general belgrano two days earlier, which claimed more than 300 argentinian lives. news of the hit on hms sheffield stunned the public back home in britain. john galway was another on board that day. i wasjust bending over to put me my anti—flash on when we got hit. if me mate hadn't have called me back, i'd have been in the galley. i wouldn't be here today. after we got hit, and i'm lying on the deckjust looking at this big pool of blood sort of starting to appear below me, not knowing exactly where i was, or anything like that,
6:55 am
and thought i'd literally lost my leg, because i couldn't feel my leg. the burning vessel was abandoned five hours after it was struck. it eventually sank six days later, while being towed away. 20 sailors had died and 26 were injured. you do challenge your own mortality. why? why have i come off? why am i alive? and obviously, you get told very, very quickly, because it's not your time. but you still question the fact that you've just come through this major ordeal and you're still here talking about it. and yet people that you're quite close to on board, why was it their time, at 19? today, a memorial to hms sheffield will be unveiled at the national memorial arboretum, a permanent reminder of events that still resonate 40 years on. navteonhal, bbc news. and that have posted this morning we are going to be speaking to somebody

continues, an industrial heartland with its heart ripped out. a ukrainian military commander says, as part of that assault, russians are attempting to land soldiers by boat. one of the 100,000 residents stuck nearby remains helpless. i don't know where to go at all. i am not alone. imagine — everything is destroyed. i've got nowhere to go. a brief ceasefire had allowed some to escape the steelworks after two months of what must have been their darkest days. how we were living... to be honest, it was horrible. from morning until night, we were bombarded. we lived in hope that every day. would be the last day in this hell, that we would go home to a peaceful mariupol. j but now it is non—existent. the operation to free these women and children has been full of false dawns. now, finally, a chance to step into the light. translation: today, 156 people arrived in zaporizhia. _
7:04 am
women and children. they were in bunkers for more than two months. without a doubt, we'll continue doing everything we can to get all our people out of mariupol. out of azovstal. it's hard, but we need everyone. civilian and military. the search for justice also continues. ukraine's prosecutors say that most russian servicemen inspected a being involved in the murders of hundreds of civilians here in the town of bucha has been identified. the daily misery for many continues, whether trapped targeted or living in terror. mark lobel, bbc news. earlier we heard from our correspondentjoe inwood, who is in lviv this morning, where a number of russian missiles have hit for the first time in over a week.
7:05 am
he gave us this update. yes, this is a city that often feels quite removed from the war. i was out with some colleagues in the centre of the city having dinner when the missile struck. 0ur cameraman said, i thought i had something in the distance and suddenly there was a change in midfield and everyone stopped talking and there was a hush over the city. turns out that is exactly what happened. three missiles may be more landed at places around the city. they think they were electrical substations hit. some areas were without power and water, including medicalfacilities. why was russia doing this? it was probably targeting rail infrastructure. that is because that has been crucial in getting heavy weaponry, getting equipment that is so important to the fight in east is that this is where it is coming through. we also seeing today reports are wide equipment matters so much. we understand there was a russian shelling out a town just
7:06 am
north of occupied donetsk. we also found out yesterday was the highest civilian death toll since the attack on the railway station. the stuff that boris johnson on the railway station. the stuff that borisjohnson was telling ukraine it was going to be sending more of yesterday, today we find out why they need it. it's the final day of campaigning ahead of the local elections tomorrow. seats are up for grabs in every scottish and welsh council. 90 members will be voted to the legislative assembly in northern ireland. and in england, voters will choose 4,000 councillors in 146 local authorities. it isa it is a busy old day. 0ur political correspondent alex forsyth is here in the studio to explain which votes matter, and where. this is a big set of elections. i will take you through some of the detail. tomorrow 5 elections will see votes taking place in each of the uk nations. it's been four or five years since most seats were contested. things looked pretty different back then. we were still in the eu, theresa may was prime minister,
7:07 am
jeremy corbyn was labour leader, arlene foster led the dup and carwynjones was first minister in wales. coronavirus wasn't something we had ever heard of. so, with so much having changed, it ll be interesting to see how people 5 views might have changed too. so lets run through where the votes are taking place. we'll start in northern ireland, where people will be voting for the government, which could usher in a new era of its history. there are 90 seats up for grabs in the national assembly. these are the results from 2017, the last time these elections took place. then the dup, a unionist party, won one more seat than sinn fein ? a nationalist party. recent polls have suggested sinn fein could take the lead for the first time. this is a crucial contest. in england, 146 councils are being contested. that includes all 32 london boroughs plus most other
7:08 am
big towns and cities. there aren t many elections in rural areas. there are also a handful of mayoral elections. in england, its all of mayoral elections. in scotland, every local authority — 32 in total — is up for election. last time round the snp kept its position as the largest party in terms of votes and councillors. the conservatives, who were led by ruth davidson at the time, took over from labour as the second largest party. it ll be interesting to watch what happens this time around. in wales, all 22 local authorities are being contested. in 2017, labour suffered losses but still won the most seats and the most councils. the tories made gains but were still behind plaid cymru. also, these will be the first local elections in wales in which 16 and 17—year—olds can vote. professor sirjohn curtice, professor of politics at the university of strathclyde has more insight on what's

7:11 am
seeing. whether it is a done deal with all boaters, the voters will make up their minds tomorrow. i certainly feel we have come a long way in the last couple of years as the labour party and rebuilding trust and support that we lost so much of a couple of years ago. xyour much of a couple of years ago. your 'ob much of a couple of years ago. your “0b is much of a couple of years ago. your job is about — much of a couple of years ago. your job is about numbers, _ much of a couple of years ago. your job is about numbers, can _ much of a couple of years ago. your job is about numbers, can we talk numbers? when you look at estimates from the pundits, around 300 seats feels like a realistic gain. i5 from the pundits, around 300 seats feels like a realistic gain.— feels like a realistic gain. is that the ball park _ feels like a realistic gain. is that the ball park figure _ feels like a realistic gain. is that the ball park figure you - feels like a realistic gain. is that the ball park figure you are - feels like a realistic gain. is that i the ball park figure you are looking at? myjob is to look at numbers for the economy as a whole. i am not the election supremo for the local elections. in some ways these are a hard set of elections. politicians are always trying to underplay expectations. the last time these seats were thought labour won more than half of them. there are not perhaps the gains we might have if other local authorities had been contested. labourwill other local authorities had been contested. labour will want to show tomorrow we are making progress,
7:12 am
after the devastating defeat in december 2019, we are rebuilding and regrouping and regaining trust under the leadership of keir starmer. that is what i am feeling on the doorstep but the proof of the pudding is in the eating and we will see that when the eating and we will see that when the results coming on friday morning. for me, the issues on the doorstep... morning. for me, the issues on the doorstep- - -— doorstep... when you speak to --eole, doorstep... when you speak to people. is _ doorstep... when you speak to people. is it — doorstep. .. when you speak to people, is it local— doorstep... when you speak to people, is it local stuff? - doorstep. .. when you speak to people, is it local stuff? is- doorstep... when you speak to people, is it local stuff? is it. people, is it local stuff? is it potholes, roads, local infrastructure, or more generally the cost of living?— the cost of living? potholes definitely — the cost of living? potholes definitely come _ the cost of living? potholes definitely come up. - the cost of living? potholes definitely come up. i- the cost of living? potholes definitely come up. i had i the cost of living? potholes l definitely come up. i had that the cost of living? potholes - definitely come up. i had that in kirklees yesterday on many occasions. local authority budgets have been cut so much by the resources that were available in the past to do some of this essential stuffjust not past to do some of this essential stuff just not there past to do some of this essential stuffjust not there any more. the number one issue that will be no surprise to you is the cost of living. people are really, really worried. they are starting to feel it for the first time in the last few weeks when people got their gas and electricity bills in april. even
7:13 am
though people knew this was coming and it was still the moment of realisation, how on earth am i going to pay tens of pounds, sometimes hundreds of pounds extra a month? people are noticing it when they are doing a food shop. in some shops things are being rationed again we can only get one bottle of sunflower oil, etc. people are noticing the prices. when you fill up the car with petrol by many people are having to make impossible decisions. 0thers having to make impossible decisions. others thought they were doing all right, they could go on holiday, take the family out for dinner maybe and at the weekend or in the school holidays. they are finding that those things they are having to cut back on, even though mum and dad might be working two jobs, maybe more. everyone is noticing this and they want to know what politicians are going to do. that is why keir starmer has said, after the local elections we need an emergency budget because the budget we had backin budget because the budget we had back in march did not touch the sides in terms of what people need
7:14 am
to get through the next vehemence. the chancellor said last week it would be silly to help families now. i find that really insulting. when i talk to people about what they are going through at the moment, it would not be silly to help people now, it would be the right thing to do. it essential to help people now. many people are struggling with the higher prices. we saw yesterday bp's profits had gone up to almost £5 billion injust three months. labour has said there should be a winter full tax on those profits and use that money to take money up to £600 of gas and electricity bills are ordinary families and pensioners. the government says that will affect investment decisions. i went full tax would not change one single investment project. families and pensioners around the country are crying out for action. labour has
7:15 am
set out its plans and we need the government to say what it will do because at the moment there is too little support for families and pensioners. little support for families and pensioners— little support for families and ensioners. ., ., , , little support for families and ensioners. ., , ., pensioners. labour has said they are exectin: pensioners. labour has said they are expecting people _ pensioners. labour has said they are expecting people to _ pensioners. labour has said they are expecting people to be _ pensioners. labour has said they are expecting people to be £2600 - pensioners. labour has said they are j expecting people to be £2600 worse off a year under the conservatives. how do you get to that figure? the main thin how do you get to that figure? tue: main thing is how do you get to that figure? tte: main thing is the how do you get to that figure? t"t2 main thing is the tax how do you get to that figure? tt2 main thing is the tax increases. there have been 15 tax rises under the tories. add those up and that is under £1000 perfamily. in addition to that there are higher mortgage interest payments, as interest payments go up. adding to that higher gas and electricity. that includes all taxes because in the end you divide it between everyone in the country paying the taxes. look at the main tax rises, national insurance contributions. they are taxes on people who go out to work and the businesses that employ them. the council tax going up because the grants available to local authorities had been cut. we are the
7:16 am
only major authority in the world thatis only major authority in the world that is adding taxes to working people in the middle of a cost of living crisis. it makes no sense article to take more money out of purses and wallets when the cost of everything is going up in the shops. that is why we need a national budget. we need that windfall tax to take money off people's gas and electricity bills. you take money off people's gas and electricity bills.— electricity bills. you had a good chat with keir _ electricity bills. you had a good chat with keir starmer - electricity bills. you had a good l chat with keir starmer yesterday. 0ne chat with keir starmer yesterday. one thing sally spoke to me about was beer eight. keir starmer accused some tory mps was beer eight. keir starmer accused some tory mp5 of misjudging by suggesting he had broken coronavirus rules. and you explain why it is rain during a work meeting where there is curry and beer is different for a prime minister having cake on a birthday? for a prime minister having cake on a birthda ? . for a prime minister having cake on a birthda ? , ., ., ., a birthday? there is a world of difference _ a birthday? there is a world of difference between _ a birthday? there is a world of difference between the - a birthday? there is a world of. difference between the industrial scale rule breaking we have seen in downing street. no government in
7:17 am
britain has had more fines from the people making the rules. the prime minister and chancellor have been fined by the metropolitan police, whereas durham police, where the alleged incident took place, the rule breaking apparently took place, durham police has said there is no case to answer. the police has been very clear. in 10 downing street rule breaking did happen. in durham, keir starmer did not break the rules. that is the key difference. borisjohnson has lie denied again and canada allies, lie to parliament about what happened. he had to apologise to the queen for the parties happened on downing street and neither prince philip's funeral. i think there is a world of difference between the rule breaking and the finds that the prime minister and his office have received, compared to what keir starmer did, which was basically
7:18 am
working all day in an office, stopping to have food and drink and then carrying on. durham police has been clear, it did not break the rules. the tory mudslinging is to try to distract from the rule breaking at number 10 but also from the cost of living crisis we have been talking about. we the cost of living crisis we have been talking about.— the cost of living crisis we have been talking about. we will see how that -la s been talking about. we will see how that plays out _ been talking about. we will see how that plays out tomorrow _ been talking about. we will see how that plays out tomorrow at - been talking about. we will see how that plays out tomorrow at the - been talking about. we will see how that plays out tomorrow at the local| that plays out tomorrow at the local elections. thank you. now for the weather. good morning everyone. this morning is quite a mile start to the day. if you are stepping out you will notice it is cloudy. these beautiful pictures show that quite nicely. it is not just cloud, we also have rain pushing steadily south and east. behind that we have showers coming across parts of scotland and northern ireland. as we go through the morning some of them could be quite heavy. you can see the extent of the cloud cover. 0ne
7:19 am
quite heavy. you can see the extent of the cloud cover. one or two breaks in northern ireland and potentially across parts of cambria. we ran into this cloud, the showers and rain continuing to drift easter. the rain will eventually clear the east. you can see how their showers drift into eastern scotland, wales and the south—west and england. the showers are likely to be heavy and thundery. behind them it will brighten up, there will be sunshine and temperatures ten to 17 degrees. this evening the remnants of the showers continue to move away into the north sea. there will be clear skies with patchy mist and fog forming and thicker cloud coming in across northern ireland and scotland introducing splashes of rain. for some of us it will be colder than last night. temperatures between seven and eight. any patchy mist and fog lifting quite readily. a dry day for england and wales were sunny

7:21 am
energy bill has gone up from £217 to £607. he was on a two—year contract and he says his usage has not changed. he says it is not fair and cannot be right. steve has had his rise was from £170 to £270 when his daughter's from £80 to 240 with no arrears or increased use. it is a hugejump for people arrears or increased use. it is a huge jump for people when you are trying to budget stop he said he was caught out when his energy company collapsed. he got in touch with the energy minister, with 0fgem. he said i have the time and ability to fight these companies and a lot of people do not have that. a lot of the tweets we have had about people struggling to contact the energy company infinding struggling to contact the energy company in finding out exactly what has gone wrong. it is important to realise there might be a significant jump realise there might be a significant jump above the 54%. if you are with

7:24 am
we hope the elderly can be sent to better hospitals. in the five weeks i've been locked down, you can't step outside the gates. it's shanghai's most vulnerable, who've suffered the most. almost all the official dead are elderly and unvaccinated. china's leaders insist that still chasing zero covid is the right thing. the enforcement has been harsh at times. some people barricaded into their homes, or forced out of them. communities fenced off. but xijinping has made it clear there's no change. the man in charge of china's ruling communist party believes persistence is victory. this is now a test of china's way — of his credibility. one part of china has changed tack, though. in hong kong, we never did a total lockdown. schools were closed. a lot of people were working from home, but it was by no
7:25 am
means a lockdown. my concern in shanghai would be, how long can this go on? because the case numbers are not going to come down to zero immediately. they're going to drop down slowly. but the whole thing could happen again in a month or two months or three months if there's another outbreak of 0micron. debate about living with it on the mainland has been shut down in public, though, and there's little room for dissent. this man was detained by police for simply showing his shopping. some pork donated by a neighbouring province. his crime highlighting the food supply problems. the government said this small scale, subtle protest — banging pots in parts of shanghai — is influenced by foreign forces. china's capital is now on guard against any spread. most of this country has been virus free now for almost two years. but as 0micron threatens, renewed anxiety is spreading. robin brant, bbc news in shanghai.
7:26 am
every day for the past 12 months, at sunrise and sunset, different people have watched over the city of hull from a glass pod eight storeys above the ground. it was for an unusual art project called hull vigil, which came to an end yesterday. more than 700 people took part, and crispin rolfe has been speaking to some of them. i can't believe it's a whole year since i was standing here doing the first vigil. hull is the perfect place. interesting. eye opening. yeah. so many ranges of emotions, so many thoughts going through your head, all at one space of time, really. the 730 places for the vigil went in four hours. but i'll miss it. for a year now, at both sunset
7:27 am
and sunrise, for the lucky few, it's just been a case of you and the view. but all things come to an end. obviously, you walk up this ramp and it's like someone's given you the key to the city. like, you look after the city for an hour. you seem to be the highest person up. a really beautiful working public space leaves a trace. so, yes, there's the vigils that took part. there's the companions that manage them. and then there's a trace of it. if you saw this shelter from east or west hull, when you walk past this building from two weeks from now, it won't be here anymore. and you'll remember that thing that was on the roof. so i think the legacy is notjust in the people that directly took part, i think it's also in the people that walk past. so the end then of a project, which has seen hundreds of people come and stand in this box, in this tiny container, and gaze out
7:28 am
over the city of hull. unless you've done it, it's difficult to imagine what it would be like. but it is very close, it is very high and it is, in a way, full of emotion. we've had asylum seekers and refugees in the vigil and their comments have been really moving. you know, you've got people who are hoping for a new life and those who are wishing for their old life. that's what's touched me the most, really. but hull's 365—day vigil is now over. it's seen pandemics, empty streets and new normals. and yet, with those who've taken part all writing down their thoughts, it will have marked the dawn and dusk of people's lives. crispin rolfe, bbc news, in hull. that was lovely, wasn't it?
7:29 am

7:49 am
with tourette's, it made sense of months of developing symptoms. cheers! living with tourette's is hard. but like, me, my friends, my family, we canjust, like, laugh at it. shut up, no one likes you. the hard part is some people are rude about it. we were at the park the other day and this lady questioned me in saying, "can you please watch your language?" and then my friend goes, "yeah, but she has tourette's." and she goes, "are you sure?" and like questions it. it makes me feel very upset. and then it makes me feel like ijust don't want to go out the house and just want to stay locked up all the time. now she's hoping her experiences can be a force for good. she's written a book about living with tourette's that she hopes will only help others understand more about the condition.
7:50 am
so this is my book. "strangers can be rude to me. i just don't feel the same. frowned upon and glared at. but i'm not the one to blame." people about tourette's, and to spread awareness about trends. the book started as homework for lucy, but her thoughts soon caught the eye of a publisher. and together, they formed a dream her parents thought was a long way off when she was first diagnosed. she first started having tics when she was about eight, but they were just some facial twitches and some hand movements. her tics vary. they've gone from noises to movements to words to gestures and things like that, and it just literally exploded. one day she woke up with a noise that never went away. "my tics do not define me. look past them and you'll see. behind the noise and movements, i'm a girl who wishes to be free." immensely proud.
7:51 am

8:03 am
a crucial supply line taking western weaponry to the east. lviv�*s mayor says electricity was cut off in a few districts, and some parts are without water with outages at several medicalfacilities. in the south, the relentless attack on mariupol�*s steel plant continues, an industrial heartland with its heart ripped out. a ukrainian military commander says, as part of that assault, russians are attempting to land soldiers by boat. one of the 100,000 residents stuck nearby remains helpless. i don't know where to go at all. i am not alone. imagine — everything is destroyed. i've got nowhere to go. a brief ceasefire had allowed some to escape the steelworks after two months of what must have been their darkest days. how we were living...
8:04 am
to be honest, it was horrible. from morning until night, we were bombarded. we lived in hope that every day. would be the last day in this hell, that we would go home to a peaceful mariupol. j but now it is non—existent. the operation to free these women and children has been full of false dawns. now, finally, a chance to step into the light. translation: today, 156 people arrived in zaporizhia. _ women and children. they were in bunkers for more than two months. without a doubt, we'll continue doing everything we can to get all our people out of mariupol. out of azovstal. it's hard, but we need everyone. civilian and military. the search for justice also continues. ukraine's prosecutors say the first russian servicemen expected of being involved in
8:05 am
the murders of hundreds of civilians —— serviceman suspected of being involved in the murders of hundreds of civilians here in the town of bucha has been identified. but the daily misery for many continues, whether trapped targeted or living in terror. mark lobel, bbc news. our correspondentjoe inwood is in the city of lviv this morning which has been hit by a number of russian missiles for the first time in over a week. joe, what's the latest? yes, this is a city on the far western edge of ukraine, somewhere thatis western edge of ukraine, somewhere that is often quite far from the war. last night we were cameraman had something in the distance. you could sort of feel the mood change by people when looking at their phones and everyone went outside. you could see the plume of smoke rising. it turns out the three sites that had been hit around the
8:06 am
city, electrical substations, sites that had been hit around the city, electricalsubstations, in city, electrical substations, in what city, electricalsubstations, in what was an attempt we understand to cripple the row network here. something the russians have been doing more and more. as well as the advance on the easter the country, trying to take out the supply lines that have been so crucial in getting heavy weaponry to the east, to the conflict. as we had yesterday £300 million of more equipment will be coming from the uk. there have been vast amounts of artillery, tanks were all sorts of crucial weaponry coming. a lot of it comes through this city. what we saw yesterday was an attempt by russia, alongside its advance in the east, to try to cut off the supply of equipment to the troops and they have done that by targeting the city of lviv. in the last few minutes we've been hearing that the eu plans
8:07 am
to ban all russian oil imports. all russian imports will be phased out. refined products by the end of this year. that news coming to us in the last couple of moments. that will make a _ the last couple of moments. that will make a huge _ the last couple of moments. that will make a huge difference. obviously massive financial figures involved in that decision as well. plenty more on that in the coming hours and the weeks ahead as well. it's the final day of campaigning ahead of the local elections tomorrow. seats are up for grabs in every scottish and welsh council. 90 members will be voted to the legislative assembly in northern ireland. and in england, voters will choose 4,000 councillors in 146 local authorities. our political correspondent alex forsyth takes a look. who do you believe? cast your mind back four or five years. politically, things looked very different. theresa may was prime minister, jeremy corbyn was the labour leader. we were still in the eu and few of us had ever heard of coronavirus.
8:08 am
that was the last time these elections took place. so how much have public views changed? well, tomorrow we'll find out. in northern ireland, people will be voting for the government. there are 90 seats up for grabs at stormont. these are the results from 2017, the last time these elections took place. then the dup, a unionist party, won one more seat than sinn fein, a nationalist party. recent polls have suggested sinn fein could take the lead for the first time this time. so this is a crucial contest. in england, 146 councils are being contested. that includes all 32 london boroughs, plus most other big towns and cities. there aren't many elections in rural areas. there are also a handful of mayoral elections. it's all about who runs local services. but for some voters we've spoken to in recent weeks, the big picture counts, too. inflation is going mad, and especially for fuel prices, for public transport, it's going absolutely insane.
8:09 am
items we buy have gone more than 100% increase in price. boris, yes, he's had his parties. even though it's not right, - i'm sure it's not been on his own. i'm just appalled that anybody, you know, in any position could think that it's right to actually have drinks at work. for local elections, i do tend to think a bit more locally. i'm working and i should be able to be saving so much money. i but i physically cannot i because, like, everything is just so expensive. in scotland, every local authority, 32 in total is up for election this year, and in wales, all 22 local authorities are being contested and these will be the first local elections in which 16 and 17—year—olds can vote. so across the uk, there's a lot at stake. if you really want to understand what's happened, the real evidence will lie in comparing the votes that the parties get tomorrow with the votes they got
8:10 am
in the same councils last year. in many, many places, that comparison will be possible. to find out what's happening in your area, or who you might be able to vote for, visit bbc.co.uk/news for all the information you need. alex forsyth, bbc news. our political correspondent alex forsyth joins us in the studio today. alex, how are things looking this morning as we head into the final day of campaigning? these are a pretty complicated set of elections. it is a bit but some in some places are not in others. the simple way to think about it, in northern ireland it is about the government everywhere else it is about who runs local services. when you are out and about talking to people there are local factors that come into it but these are also going to be a really important measure of the public mood nationally. of course it is the first widespread test public opinion
8:11 am
since some pretty big events, the war in ukraine, the cost of living going up my parties in downing street becoming public. these are local elections. they will decide he runs local services in england and scotland but will potentially have for parties nationally. the conservatives _ for parties nationally. the conservatives line - for parties nationally. the conservatives line seems to be, we will get some wins and losses. if you speak to the labour party they are quite hopeful this could be a big night for them.— are quite hopeful this could be a big night for them. what happens in the hours before _ big night for them. what happens in the hours before the _ big night for them. what happens in the hours before the election, i big night for them. what happens in the hours before the election, you l the hours before the election, you get huge expectation management from people predicting hundreds of seats gained to hundreds of seat loft. it will bid difficult set of elections to read. it is whether a party is edging forward or slipping back. is labour doing well in the midlands, the north in england? how are they doing in london? are the lib dems making inroads in the south? is the
8:12 am
snp still dominant in scotland? the big thing is about the share of the vote. is anybody really going up or down? that is what people will be looking out for and what will really determine whether parties are happy with leaders or whether they think they might need to be a change in direction. it they might need to be a change in direction. . they might need to be a change in direction. , ., ,. ., they might need to be a change in direction. , . ,. ., ., direction. it will be fascinating to watch, direction. it will be fascinating to watch. when _ direction. it will be fascinating to watch, when to? _ direction. it will be fascinating to watch, when to? -- _ direction. it will be fascinating to watch, when to? -- won't i direction. it will be fascinating to watch, when to? -- won't it? i millions of women across the united states could lose their legal right to abortion, after it was confirmed a leaked document from the supreme court was genuine. the leak suggests that the current abortion ruling, roe v wade, could be overturned, which means individual states can then ban it. abortion has been a legal right across the us for almost 50 years. those republican leaders who are trying to weaponise the use of the law against women. well, we say, how dare they? how dare they tell a woman what she can do and cannot
8:13 am
do with her own body? applause. how dare they? how dare they try to stop her from determining her own future? how dare they try to deny women their rights and their freedoms? it is 13 minutes past eight. you may remember a few weeks ago we spoke to sue graham, the mother of nikki graham, the big brother star who died last year after living with anorexia for most of her life. sue told us about her fight to get help for nikki, and now the charity beat says medical staff need better training in how to treat eating disorders. our correspondent zoe conway has been hearing one woman's experience of the condition. when you restrict your food intake, it numbs you. and so anorexia is a functional illness. it's a way to cope with difficult feelings or beliefs or anything that's going on for you. joss was anorexic for five years. she says it was a way of coping
8:14 am
with the sexual abuse she suffered as a child by a non—family member. i was quite skeletal. i wasjust... i was just very depressed. i would just pace around the house all day. my day was just pretty much filled with numbers. i couldn't really take in much information. it was all about just like the exercise i was doing, the food i was eating, keeping lots ofjournals about the food i was eating, and then just kind of burning off the calories. her family knew nothing of the abuse. the illness came out of the blue. it was just an incredible shock. walking into this house, it just feels like such a loving family environment. oh, it's a complete shock. i thought these things happen to other people, not to you. l and yeah, we just never saw it coming at all. i when suddenly they say, ifjoss can put on so much weight a week, - and i was doing the maths, and i was thinking, "well, i to get to the target weight, - that's going to be three months. and you have this sudden moment.
8:15 am
this isn't a quick fix. this is something we're living with. oh, my earring! nikki graham lived with anorexia for 30 years. she said that when she entered the big brother house in 2006, she felt finally accepted. she certainly won the hearts of the audience, but those that knew nikki say she never really believed that she was loved. the anorexia that would kill her took over her life when she was just eight years old. her mother, sue, told breakfast last month that nikki became so weak she couldn't go to school. so i took her down to the doctors because she couldn't walk. and i said, "my daughter needs a hospital and she needs it now." i said, "it's friday. i will sit here all weekend. i'm not going anywhere until you get my girl a bed. and if anything happens, i'm blaming you." and so it was always a battle.
8:16 am
so i think they're going to do some kayaking or some paddleboarding. swimming? maybe. the walden family say that they, too, felt that as soon as joss turned 18, the intensive support she'd been receiving fell away. i think that a lot of time and money was wasted byjust not having this coherent strategy of taking someone right through the process. so, for instance, joss went in for an in patients, and then when she came out, there was a sizeable gap before she was seen by an outpatient service. and in that time there was a lot of slippage. and things can slip very, very fast with an eating disorder. joss feared for her own life. she grew increasingly desperate. i sought out my gp's number of her own home, and ijust rang her at her home one evening and kind of put my foot down, and said, "look, i'm really scared for my life and i really need you to advocate for me, to fight for me, because the services just keep putting me on waiting lists and just keep telling me either your weight�*s not low enough or we don't have
8:17 am
room for you." the charity beat says medical schools need to do a betterjob of teaching doctors about how to treat eating disorders. at the moment, two thirds of people who go to their gp report that they don't get the referral for assessment, that they should get. that the nice guidelines say they should get. so the medical professionals, they want to do a good job, but the system that's letting them down and eating disorders patients down is the medical training establishment because that's not doing itsjob properly. the general medical council says that eating disorders are a complex, high—risk area of practice that should be covered in every doctor's education. we've asked medical schools to develop a common approach to improve how eating disorders are taught at medical school. after finally getting the therapy she needed, joss has turned her life around. she's now working for the nhs as a psychologist.
8:18 am
i am very, very proud ofjoss. she's come so far, you know. she's accomplished so much. i don't know how to put it into words, really. we really are enormously proud of her. zoe conway, bbc news. good to see a positive end to many —— these stories. that is a brilliant pace study. we'rejoined now by gp dr helen wall. we were saying that gps train for seven years. you feel there is not enough training on issues like eating disorders. it enough training on issues like eating disorders.— enough training on issues like eating disorders. it goes back to medical school, _ eating disorders. it goes back to medical school, as _ eating disorders. it goes back to medical school, as the - eating disorders. it goes back to medical school, as the gmc - eating disorders. it goes back to medical school, as the gmc has| medical school, as the gmc has highlighted. an investigation was donein highlighted. an investigation was done in 2017 after the death of some young people with eating disorders. the parliamentary health service ombudsman highlighted the was not
8:19 am
the training that needed to happen in medical schools and the years that followed medical school. going into foundation jobs and learning the ropes. pretty much it was nonexistent. maybe one or two lectures when it was looked into. it certainly needed to change. the gmc as we heard in a report have put guidance in four medical schools but they cannot mandate what a medical school teachers. they can demonstrate the outcome is a person needs to have at the end of the medical school. there is variation still i believe in what amount of training and programmes are going on in medical schools across the uk. what are the challenges when it comes to eating disorders and training gps? what particular about eating disorders do think is lacking in terms of the gap in knowledge? i am assuming at some point a gp would learn about mental health problems. why is an eating disorder different? it is multifactorial, sally. there
8:20 am
are a few reasons behind it. gps, clinicians will learn from meeting patients with mid experience. that is how we learn our best medicine. whenever i meet someone with a condition, i would whenever i meet someone with a condition, iwould have whenever i meet someone with a condition, i would have a catalogue of my mind of previous patients i have met. it is really difficult for people to get placements in these services because they are often quite small services, quite pressured services. there are very few eating disorder specialists in the country. getting a range of medical students and gps in these placements to meet individuals and learn alongside the patient is very difficult. we cannot use that as an excuse. we need to do as a gp i believe is get rid of the misconception that satisfies all across society. notjust health care professionals. there is a huge misconception that eating disorders arafat or essays. we have to be really underweight to have an eating disorder. —— a bad or a phase. you do not have to be underweight to

8:24 am
to that, it is just one part of it. thank you for coming in. really helpful advice. we should say there are details of organisations offering help and support if you are living with an eating disorder or thinking about a loved one. the bbc action line has lots of information on there for you. lots of you have been in touch about your energy bill this morning. you'll remember the energy price cap went up by around 50% in april but many people say they're paying much more. nina's here to explain. i think it is really telling me hear from viewers in these numbers. every time we talk about the cost of living going up and energy bills going up we get so many e—mails, so many tweets from viewers saying they are really feeling it. just to set the scene, the average energy bill on the 1st of april by direct debit
8:25 am
went up by 54%. what we're hearing from some viewers, one in particular got in touch saying her bill had gone up by 300%. i want to talk you through some of the e—mails we have had this morning. suzanne said, i am recently widowed, i used to pay £105 a month and now i am expected to pay £269 a month. i am a month and now i am expected to pay £269 a month. lam not a month and now i am expected to pay £269 a month. i am not stupid. a month and now i am expected to pay £269 a month. lam not stupid. i think i am in credit but this is completely unsustainable. from frustrated pensioner. we are pensioners, so are light users. 0ur bill has risen from £92.75 a month to £151.20. 0ur bill said we are £819 in credit, so asked for a refund. couldn t get through. they said they d call back and they haven t. this is what we're hearing a lot. notjust this is what we're hearing a lot. not just the this is what we're hearing a lot. notjust the price going up but struggling to get in touch with the company. from kim. my energy direct debit has gone
8:26 am
up from £56 to £131! i am in credit and always been on a variable rate. i am 56, live alone and have many health issues, so like many of your viewers i need my heating. i couldn t get through on the phone to challenge this, but after days of trying to use the website, i changed my direct debit. if you are on a really tight budget, thatis if you are on a really tight budget, that is a budget killer, isn't it? i suppose there are some circumstances when the prices can go up. that suppose there are some circumstances when the prices can go up.— when the prices can go up. that is true. when the prices can go up. that is true- way — when the prices can go up. that is true- way more — when the prices can go up. that is true. way more than _ when the prices can go up. that is true. way more than 50%. - when the prices can go up. that is true. way more than 50%. it - when the prices can go up. that is| true. way more than 50%. it could when the prices can go up. that is - true. way more than 50%. it could be you post some from your last supplier or you use more energy. maybe your fixed deal has come to an end. supplies generally charge more in the spring and summer so we have a buffer in the winter. no bad thing at the moment. what they are not to do it is our direct debits as a way to make the balance sheets look healthy and get more in the bank themselves. they have said he had three weeks to get back to us and tell us why this is happening. why
8:27 am
are direct debits going up so significantly? if yours has gone up, you are probably wondering what to do. first of all try to open a conversation with a supplier. if your direct debit has gone up by more than the 50% you would expect to increase by the price cap increase, i would be asking my energy company for an explanation of why. it may be the case that you have come off the end of a fixed term deal onto a variable, in which case you may see a bigger it's important you're asking those questions. the first port of call should always be to contact your energy company. it may be the case you can lower that direct debit amount just on your online account. it could be relatively straightforward — not having to sit on hold with your energy company. it's so important you don't stop paying. if you stop paying your direct debit, that's when you can start to rack up debt on your account and, in the worst—case scenario, end up with your power supply cut off as well. you need to talk to your firm about this to get to the bottom of exactly why they've arrived
8:28 am
at the amount they have. so please just do not stop paying. that is really dangerous. try and open the conversation first and foremost. hopefully 0fcom will shine a light on where and how people are being overcharged. this e—mailfrom colin. he got in touch with his provider and he called his supplier and got a fixed deal. his price came down by £50 a month. there are deals out there. maybe you will be pleasantly surprised if you get through. the reality is prices are going up for lots of people and it is important it is fair. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning. this is bbc london, i'm frankie mccamley today is the final day for those applying to become the met police commissioner. former commissioner dame cressida dick stepped down last month, following a string of controversies around racism and sexism in the force. the successful candidate will be announced later this summer. they will recieve a salary of nearly £300,000.

a london academy trust says it plans to teach british sign language to all 11,500 of its pupils. the ivy learning trust has ten schools in north london and hertfordshire. it started teaching the language at its school in enfield, and teachers found it had a significant impact on learning and behaviour. it's better to learn bsl than modern foreign languages, because here we have so many deaf people, i feel they're left out of conversations. now, do you fancy getting your hands on a piece of footballing history? well, if you have some spare cash lying around, it's the closing day of the auction for the shirt diego maradona wore in argentina's world cup win over england in 1986. it was put up for auction by former england player steve hodge. it has already reached its reserve of £5 million.

it has just it hasjust gone it has just gone have passed out. today marks the 40th anniversary of the attack on hms sheffield during the falklands war, when an argentinian missile struck the royal navy destroyer, killing 20 crew members in the process. it was the first british warship to sink during enemy action since the second world war, and became a key moment in the conflict. navtej johal reports. the images may be grainy, but the memories of what happened a0 years ago, are still clear in the minds of the survivors. on may 4,1982, hms sheffield, a royal navy destroyer on a scouting mission off port stanley in the south atlantic, was hit by an argentinian exocet missile. it became the first british ship to be lost in combat since world war two, and the first of four to be sunk in the falklands war. if you imagine a missile, you're expecting a bang. no bang. andy stevenson was just 18
8:33 am
years old at the time. he was part of hms sheffield's logistics staff, and one of the vessel's crew of around 280 sailors. the ship was named after his home city. it was just this — it was like a massive blast of air that blew me out of my bunk. amid the chaos and confusion, andy was asked to provide a list of surviving crew members. what i didn't realise, until i went around the second time, was that i'd left my own name off the list. so at about two or three in the morning on probably may 5, there was a knock at my parents' door with a policeman and a vicar, saying, "unfortunately, your son's missing, presumed dead." i name this ship sheffield. the 11,100 tonne warship had been launched by the queen in 1971. before the falklands war began, it was on its way home after a six month overseas deployment.
8:34 am

8:46 am
scotland, northern ireland and wales. we will see a few of those in the south—west as well. through the day some of those showers could be heavy and thundery. we want all catch one. it will brighten up towards the west with some sunshine. quite a bit of cloud in northern ireland. you will still see some sunshine. part of cumbria, west wales and the south—west. showers continue to drift towards the east. still the potential for them to be heavy and thundery. temperatures today tend to about 17 or 18 degrees. through this evening we say goodbye to this line of showers are pushing to the north sea. under clear skies we are looking at some patchy mist and fog. we also have a weather front coming in across scotland and northern ireland, introducing thicker clout and some splashes of rain. for some of us it is going to be a cooler night than last night. as we head through tomorrow we have got this high pressure building on across us. we have got weather fronts moving across the top of that bringing in some rain. it is going to turn much milder as you can see from the

8:48 am
opportunity to explain the impact the tweet had on him and his family. i have been speaking to him and his wife. we put our bodies on the line for this club. i don't know why i was targeted. not nice to see that when you open twitter and that were the top comment. i don't want to be getting comments like that, and, you know, my family feeling that i'm in danger. for years, rugby league player josh charnley has faced abuse from the stands. but it became much darker when a tweet forced the club to act. i know we was in a bit of a rut, playing, getting beat. but, you know, when you check social media and that was there, it shocked me at first. people watching this must be thinking, you're going to work, you're doing yourjob, you do not expect to see something like that. we don't go out there every week to get beat. at the minute social media is easy to direct contact with someone.
8:49 am
so we're trying to tackle it and we need to put a stop to it all. the club arranged forjosh and the person who sent the tweet to meet. do you think it's a good way of tackling the abuse online, if you can meet the person responsible? 100%, yeah. i don't... they won't say it in person to you. like, he wouldn't have said that to me that up in that room, not a chance. he was shaking. he were, like — you could see he felt embarrassed about it. but, yeah, you could meet them, you could get your point across to them, which i did. and hopefully, he took it on the chin. what everyone doesn't see is the impact the abuse can have on players' families. sometimes i think fans forget that they actually are human and they've got lives as well. and they're very focused on the sport, which i do get as well, but i don't think they sometimes see
8:50 am
what we see at home as partners and things, especially when it's been so easy these days for people to just pick up the phone and write whatever they want, not think about the consequences. i'm a rugby player and a dad and a husband. i'm like three people who, i've got a... if i've played a game, i can't come home and sulk, because i've got mrs and arlo and axel to look after. do you think, in your experience, it's getting worse, the abuse players are facing? i feel like it's always probably been there, but i feel like it's a lot easier for people to just put it out there because of things like social media. it makes you worry because you don't know these people, so you don't know if they're going to actually do something. we've never met him or seen him before. you don't know if he's actually going to do anything to these threats that he's put on social media. it's not nice for his parents to see.
8:51 am
like, he's got a lot of people that care about him. you got a lot of messages though, didn't you? yeah. i had some of the other wives message me and see how i was, which i thought was really nice. warrington have obviously highlighted this incident quite severely, because it's like a death threat. well, it is a death threat. but the fact that they've highlighted that and let fans know thatjosh has been to meet him, they've talked it out. but like, although you've got that one death threat, the amount of fans that did come through and message you to see if you was all right. i mean, we had a lot — and i mean, a lot — of messages from fans, like, even non—warrington fans, didn't you? yeah. they're all out there to look out foryou, but, yeah, you can't be doing what this kid's done. josh and his family have accepted the apology of the person responsible. the club say they'll continue to work with the league to tackle abuse aimed at players.
8:52 am
it was really interesting spending time withjudge and his family. josh was quite matter—of—fact about it. obviously this cross the line. what we saw there is just the impact it has on a family. that is what people don't realise. an interesting approach, a way to deal with it. allowing those responsible to admit they have done wrong but obviously josh and his family can meet that person. it helped to allay concerns. person. it heled to alla concerns. . , it helped to allay concerns. cast our it helped to allay concerns. cast your mind _ it helped to allay concerns. cast your mind back— it helped to allay concerns. cast your mind back to _ it helped to allay concerns.
