dark clouds, threatening and delivering plenty of showers, as you can see on the cloud and radar pictures. you might imagine with a showery picture we have low pressure sitting right over the uk. not the strongest, deepest one we have ever seen and the winds are fairly light. that doesn't mean the showers, when you have got them, lost a bit longer than they would do otherwise. very few fliess agriplace a shower or two today. very little in the way of sunny spells even in between them. temperature struggling today, a five o'clock this afternoon come into the low teens for many. they will be fewer showers in northern ireland and sunny spells into this evening. a line of showers developing to south—west england, the middles, home counties and towards eastern england which could be thundery in places. the channel islands may be dry with sunny spells throughout.
1:32 pm
quite often, showers die away towards the end of the day. not for england and wales, some will continue all night. turning drier scotland and northern ireland, though rain heading into the western isles. temperatures falling into single figures and they will be a few spots in north—east scotland that are close to freezing as we start the day tomorrow. teased by a few early sunny spells, club building as she was breaking out during the day and the eastern areas will be seeing the heaviest ones with thunder and hail possible. in northern ireland, longer spells of rain moving in here. temperatures may be a degree also higher. you will notice that more in wales and southern england additive becomes mainly dry and sunny intervening. northern ireland seen the rain later in the evening and a push is on towards wales and north—west england. bank holiday thursday and friday, high—pressure moving in. there will still be a chance of showers and into the weekend, low—pressure to the south bringing in the chance of showers, especially
1:33 pm

1:35 pm
circumstances that made the problem even harsher. you know, late arrival at the stadium and around the stadium, difficulties in transportation and difficulties to locate the british people who were everywhere around the stadium without us being able to know where exactly they came from and how they arrived at the stadium. this exactly they came from and how they arrived at the stadium.— arrived at the stadium. this is the remium arrived at the stadium. this is the premium game — arrived at the stadium. this is the premium game in _ arrived at the stadium. this is the premium game in european - arrived at the stadium. this is the l premium game in european football and should have been a joy to go to, but instead — and should have been a joy to go to, but instead you see kids in extreme distress. _ but instead you see kids in extreme distress, adults, women, it wasjust awfui _ distress, adults, women, it wasjust awful. absolutely awful. and there was a _ awful. absolutely awful. and there was a complete breakdown and now we -et was a complete breakdown and now we get the _ was a complete breakdown and now we get the blame game and the smears in that narrative coming from the french — that narrative coming from the french authorities that completely failed _ french authorities that completely failed on _ french authorities that completely failed on saturday, and uefa to try and put _ failed on saturday, and uefa to try and put on — failed on saturday, and uefa to try and put on liverpool fans.

1:40 pm
into the stadium in paris. suzanne gower is a liverpool fan who was at the match. she's also a lawyer who worked on the hillsborough disaster. she described tojoanna gosling what happened i was one of the lucky ones in that i was one of the lucky ones in that i attended with my sister and we got there really early and we were at there really early and we were at the station by about quarter past six and we got into our seats by 650. i'm a lawyer and i worked on the hillsborough inquest sol 650. i'm a lawyer and i worked on the hillsborough inquest so i know quite a bit about crowd management and even at that early stage we got there, i could see that there were developing issues. there were structural problems with the way the crowd were being funnelled through an underpass and they were being eventually cackled by the police and created a narrow corridor using riot vans that the fans were forced through which created pinch points at the underpass and it wasn't too
1:41 pm
crowded, but we were crowded in and it felt safe at that early stage. but i knew that because of the vans being forced to take the same routine it was going to get bad and even at that early stage i was worried there would be problems and i was proven right. the operational command was really poor and didn't react to the situation on the ground. react to the situation on the round. ~ ., , react to the situation on the round. ~ . , i. ., . ground. what is your view now and ou need ground. what is your view now and you need your _ ground. what is your view now and you need your view _ ground. what is your view now and you need your view with _ ground. what is your view now and you need your view with what - you need your view with what happened?— you need your view with what happened? you need your view with what ha ened? ,. , ., you need your view with what hauened? , ., , , happened? the i saw with my own eyes were entirely — happened? the i saw with my own eyes were entirely to — happened? the i saw with my own eyes were entirely to with _ happened? the i saw with my own eyes were entirely to with operational - were entirely to with operational problems, the command and control and the police had brutalising tactics they were using against the vans and there were gangs of local youths who were attacking people and nothing was happening. when they turned to the police for help, their response was to brutalise them further. the man who sat next me turned up at half—time and it had taken three hours for him to get in and he had been robbed at knife—point with french gang members
1:42 pm
making throat slitting gestures and had taken their mobile phones and the police response to that was to tear gas them, so it was awful. there were problems beforehand and problems during the match, inadequate stewarding where i was sat in the upper tier. twice there were groups of local youths making their way and without tickets which caused confrontations with liverpool fans who had been brutalised and tear gassed because of what had happened outside and then after the match there were further problems getting out. i've neverfelt as unsafe in my life as i did try to get from the stadium to the station. we ran out at 90 minutes, didn't even wait for additional time. we ran all the way to the station and it was through fighting, the riot police attacking people, the air was thick with tear gas and i saw two muggings between the station and the ground, and when we finally got on
1:43 pm
the train, the people who are next to us on the train had been mugged at knife—point and had their close slashed and mobile phones taken again. slashed and mobile phones taken aaain. . , , slashed and mobile phones taken aaain. . , ~ , again. the french sports minister said there was _ again. the french sports minister said there was no _ again. the french sports minister said there was no problems - again. the french sports minister- said there was no problems regarding madrid supporters and the spanish side controlled their fans better than liverpool. what is your reaction to that? i than liverpool. what is your reaction to that?— than liverpool. what is your reaction to that? i can't speak for that. i've heard _ reaction to that? i can't speak for that. i've heard indirectly - reaction to that? i can't speak for that. i've heard indirectly that. that. i've heard indirectly that there were problems with the madrid fans but i can't speak to that what i would say is that the real madrid fans were put in a fun park that was 200 metres away from the stadium and the liverpool fans were put in a fun park and told to go by uefa 13 kilometres away and we were told there were two messes to get to the ground and they didn't take account of the fact there was a strike on one of these lines, so nearly everyone was coming from the same station, so as i say, i worked on the hillsborough inquest and there are so many parallels. it is by luck and notjudgment that people were
1:44 pm
not killed but the way the victims were blamed instantly before the match they put up a sign saying it was due to the crowd getting there late, no, they were there and they had genuine tickets on the next excuse was that everybody had thousands of people with false tickets but absolutely not. everyone i saw that had genuine tickets bought from the club. the problem is not the liverpool fans, the problem was a completely ineffective crowd management strategy. uefa and the parisian police have so many questions to answer and i know they're having a meeting today and i very much doubt they will any fan representation the four liverpool football club. the inquiry needs to be independent and include all of these parties and there has to be accountability. this was not the liverpool fans and if anyone is sat here watching this and thinking of going to any sporting event in paris, they have the olympics in two years. how could you be safe when these same people will be policing it? there has to be accountability for what they did to the liverpool
1:45 pm
fans on saturday night. suzanne gower, liverpool fan, and a lawyer who has worked on the hillsborough disaster and she was at that game in paris. the french interior minister by the way, has said that the root cause of the problem was the industrial scale production of fake tickets. in the last couple of minutes, the former cabinet ministerjeremy wright has called on borisjohnson to resign over so—called party gate allegations and the stuart gray report, and jeremy wright in a statement on his website, says for the good of this and future governments, the prime minister should resign —— sue gray. he said also that the controversy about gatherings in whitehall and the government have done real and lasting damage to the reputation not just of this government but to the
1:46 pm
institution and authority of government more generally. let's get more on this from our political correspondentjonathan blake. we've correspondent jonathan blake. we've seen correspondentjonathan blake. we've seen a number of mps since the sue gray report called for the prime minister's resignation. how significant is this intervention, do you think? i significant is this intervention, do ou think? ~ , you think? i think it is significant. _ you think? i think it is significant. is - you think? i think it is significant. is a - you think? i think it is| significant. is a former you think? i think it is - significant. is a former cabinet minister, former attorney general, former culture secretary under the david cameron and theresa may administrations, so definitely a seniorfigure in the party administrations, so definitely a senior figure in the party and someone who is probably seen as being in the moderate group of conservative mps, who are all weighing things up and making up their minds and in the lengthy statement on his website this lunchtime goes into great detail, giving his assessment on the various charges against the prime minister, the individual events when she
1:47 pm
attended and the sue gray report on the findings it came to and he comes to the conclusion that for this and future governments the prime minister should resign and he also said that putting that right is the damage that has been done to the government but also to the institutions and authorities of government more generally and that goes to the essence of the government's authority and to the effectiveness of government policy and i cannot see that moving on civil servants or apologies, however heartfelt, will succeed in doing so and it's a long statement, one clearly written by a lawyer which mr wright used to be, and it is one which brings the total number of conservative mps calling on boris johnson to resign up to 25 and there
1:48 pm
has been a handful of those since the report of sue gray was published last week. parliament is now in recess and others may well be making up recess and others may well be making up their minds and could come to the same conclusion in the coming days. just briefly, but the number into context. at what stage does boris johnson start to get really worried about the number of mps, tory mps, calling for him to go? the about the number of mps, tory mps, calling for him to go?— calling for him to go? the key number is _ calling for him to go? the key number is 54. _ calling for him to go? the key number is 54. that _ calling for him to go? the key number is 54. that is - calling for him to go? the key number is 54. that is 1596 - calling for him to go? the key number is 54. that is 1596 of l calling for him to go? the key l number is 54. that is 1596 of the number is 54. that is 15% of the septa parliamentary party and once that threshold is reached, a 54 mp5 write a letter to sir graham brady, chair of the 1922 committee calling for a vote of confidence in the prime minister, one will be held. the only person who knows the true number of letters which have gone in is sir graham brady himself and he does not tell anyone until the threshold is reached so the rest of us are guessing in the meantime, but that number will have just increased

1:56 pm
weekend somebody was spotted on cctv acting suspiciously and by the time the police arrived, they found red graffiti mainly over the fence but also at the back of her clothing. margaret thatcher has always been a very divisive figure and people either loved her because what she did or loathed out because of what she did for the unions and the miners. what the police are saying is that they are treating this as criminal damage and will be looking for the perpetrators. the council have also condemned it saying that they know peoples views on margaret thatcher vary widely, but they also condemned the damage that had been cause. so far, no public money has had to be spent on the statute although now money has been spent on cleaning it up. so now it is back to you in the studio.— you in the studio. thank you very much.
