6:02 am
is planning to meet all sides in the aviation industry to discuss the continuing disruption at airports. he's accused airlines of overselling flights and holidays. unions have warned that the situation could get worse before it gets better. our correspondent zoe conway reports. this guy's a legend. "this guy's a legend," a passenger says, as he films out of the plane window. he's referring to the man in the hi—vis jacket loading the bags — who's in fact the plane's co—pilot. it shows just how short—staffed some airports are. the aviation industry laid off thousands of people during the pandemic. now, it can't recruit people quickly enough. precious holidays have been ruined. vivian and her husband john were meant to take off on monday from bristol to minorca. after hours of queuing, the flight was cancelled. we were supposed to be meeting our three sons out there. one of them was 50 — it's his 50th birthday —
6:03 am
and it's just not happened and we're very stressed out. my husband's 80 years old, we can't really cope with that sort of thing, with the airport. i've never seen it like that before. there's just no organisation, too. anthony and his daughter emily were meant to be in turkey by now. they spent two days at manchester airport, then their flight was cancelled. i spent my birthday at gate bio of manchester airport terminal two, where it was hot. there were lots of upset children and it was, i guess, probably the worst birthday i've had — yeah, by far. as the queues backed up, the blame game got under way. the government accused the airlines and airports of not being prepared, and said it had injected £8 billion into the industry during the pandemic. the transport secretary grant shapps says airlines seriously oversold flights and holidays — and is now demanding a meeting with aviation bosses.
6:04 am
the holiday giant tui has cancelled 200 of its flights from manchester airport injune, which will affect more than 30,000 people. they say this is necessary to provide stability and a better customer service. no—one wants to be a harbinger of doom, but it's difficult to believe when we've experienced it in april, we're experiencing in may, that you're not going to experience it acrossjune and july and august when the volumes are set to increase even further. a spokesperson for heathrow said that, whilst there have been queues, the airport was flowing. at gatwick, a spokesperson said the airport was operating normally, but was busy. britain's runways are not due to quieten down any time soon — thisjubilee weekend, 10,000 flights are meant to be jetting off. zoe conway, bbc news. we will try to get some answers from you doing about the industry and
6:05 am
government for you this morning. borisjohnson is facing mounting pressure after his own ethics adviser said he still has legitimate questions to answer over his conduct during lockdown. lord geidt said the prime minister needed to explain whether he had breached the ministerial code of conduct after being fined for holding parties in lockdown. we're joined now by our political correspondentjonathan blake. good morning. how uncomfortable is this moment for the prime minister? morning. another day when the fallout from the partygate saga continues to cause problems for borisjohnson and it is a little humiliating i think to have his independent standards and ethics adviser lord geidt effectively forcing him to put down in writing why he believes he has not broken the ministerial code for being fined by the metropolitan police after he was found to have broken lockdown laws. lord geidt published his annual report last night and in that he said that, as you say, there were legitimate questions about whether the prime minister had indeed broken
6:06 am
the prime minister had indeed broken the code as a result of receiving that fine. within the ministerial code there is a requirement for ministers to comply with the law. that is an overarching expectation, if you like, rather than a specific point within it. but borisjohnson wrote back, saying that he has apologised, set the record straight in parliament, he didn't set out to break the law initially, receiving fixed penalty notice as he put it does not equal having a criminal conviction and, as far as he sees it, he did not break the code. but lord geidt also said that he had made clear to downing street officials throughout that they would have to explain, and the prime minister would have to explain that he hadn't broken the code after the sue gray report was published and that that advice was not heeded. that has been put down by boris
6:07 am
johnson to a breakdown in communication. others may see it as further evidence of their view that he is running a dysfunctional operation in downing street. we know that durham — operation in downing street. we know that durham police _ operation in downing street. we know that durham police have _ operation in downing street. we know that durham police have now- operation in downing street. we know that durham police have now sent - that durham police have now sent questionnaires to sir keir starmer and angela rayner as part of an inquiry into alleged covid rule breaking. what is next? well, they are not necessarily _ breaking. what is next? well, they are not necessarily obliged - breaking. what is next? well, they are not necessarily obliged to - are not necessarily obliged to return them, but i would imagine they will. that is just a further sign that the police investigation is continuing into that event in april last year, which sir keir starmer was pictured be drinking a beer at. there was a takeaway curry, labour have maintained throughout that it was a work event. at the time rules band enjoy socialising, the mixing of household, except for work purposes. but durham police are now investigating, as we know, and their investigation continues and they will use the answers given by sir keir starmer and angela rayner
6:08 am
to aid them in that investigation and of course there is a lot riding on it for both of them because sir keir starmer and angela rayner have both said they will resign if they are found to have been... found to have been doing broken the law and receive a fixed penalty notice but they seem as sure as they can be that no laws were broken.- they seem as sure as they can be that no laws were broken. the first deportation flight from the uk to rwanda carrying migrants is set to leave in two weeks' time on iiijune. the home office said it had begun issuing formal notices to the first people set to be flown to the african country. it's expected there will be legal challenges to stop the move. president biden has confirmed that the united states will provide ukraine with more advanced rocket systems and munitions, as intense fighting continues in the east of the country. our correspondent joe inwood is in kyiv. this is something the ukrainians have been wanting for a while, and
6:09 am
why are these weapons are so important for them? i why are these weapons are so important for them?— why are these weapons are so important for them? i think to understand — important for them? i think to understand that _ important for them? i think to understand that you _ important for them? i think to understand that you have - important for them? i think to understand that you have to l understand that you have to understand that you have to understand the importance of artillery in generalfor understand the importance of artillery in general for this whole war. the way the russians usually fight this with mass barrages of rocket launch systems and how big artillery pieces, and they pound areas into submission. at the moment they outgun the ukrainians are significantly, they have bigger guns and also more of these multiple launch rocket systems and that is what we are talking about. what the americans have said they will give them is notjust something with a longer range, about double the range of that mission systems but also something much more accurate, so what ukrainians are hoping is that these new systems which can go about 80 kilometres or so, that be a game changing meaning they can move their artillery into range of the russian guns, but the russians cannot strike back. if they come through in time, thatis back. if they come through in time, that is the question, how quickly they get here, this will give
6:10 am
ukrainians what they say could be a decisive advantage. the big question is how quickly they can get here and how quickly they can be put into use. ~ , ., ~' how quickly they can be put into use. ~ , ., ~ , ., , use. we will see. thank you very much indeed. _ bradford is the city that has been chosen to take over from coventry as the uk's city of culture in 2025. brilliant pictures last night, did you see the celebrations? . you see the celebrations? , brilliant. the people behind the bid estimate the title could bring in an extra £700 million to the area, and create 3,000 jobs in the west yorkshire city. our correspondent danny savage has this report. but the uk city - of culture 2025 is... ..bradford. wild cheering. this west yorkshire conurbation is to be the uk's city of culture in 2025. i've been here all my life, so this is like one of the biggest, most positive things that's happened for this city. bradford is not here to define its identity — its identity is already solid — it's just here to show the world just how awesome it is,

6:17 am
pages focus on boris johnson and partygate. the telegraph reports, as we have been, that the prime minister's own ethics adviser has demanded an explanation from mrjohnson, and said there were "legitimate" questions about whether he broke the ministerial code. "rebels without a clue" — that's the headline on the daily mail. it says that allies of the prime minister have warned "reckless rebels" trying to remove boris johnson from number 10 that they could destroy the conservative party's best chance of winning the next election. the metro says mrjohnson could face a vote on his future as early as tuesday after a day of growing rebellion saw senior conservatives join back—benchers questioning his fitness for office. the daily express instead leads on transport news — it reports that failing travel bosses face an angry showdown with transport secretary grant shapps over what the paper says is a "holiday hell" hitting britain. those cancelled flights and there was trouble on the ferries, as well.
6:18 am
they are reporting on e8 was trouble on the ferries, as well. they are reporting on £8 billion, the furlough money and the aid given to the transport industry during lockdown, and the government said that was to make sure we didn't end “p that was to make sure we didn't end up in this situation. we will speak to dominic raab about this and also about liz to dominic raab about this and also about linohnson's personal crisis later in the programme. —— about borisjohnson's personal crisis. the end of this week will mark 100 days since the start of war in ukraine. in that time, 14 million people have been displaced from their homes — but people here in the uk have been helping. the scottish town of aberfeldy is just one of many that has opened up its doors, offering homes and hope to ukrainian refugees. jayne mccubbin is there for us this morning. good morning, jayne. good morning to ou. this is good morning, jayne. good morning to you- this is the — good morning, jayne. good morning to you. this is the beautiful— you. this is the beautiful aberfeldy, and just over there is the mountain which is the dead centre, the heart of scotland, and
6:19 am
we have followed this town right from the very start of the war because this town decided to come together. good morning, everyone. people like craig and ali and zoe, the town came together to offer hope to refugees. tonight will be emotional in the square because they will be down with ukrainians who have made their dilemma for the town their home, to watch the match. here is the story. baby mark was born into war. hello. when we first met him in march, he was starting on a journey to scotland he'll never remember — but one which will shape the rest of his life. and finally, after weeks of waiting, mo is ready to welcome him and his family into aberfeldy. my goodness. what a documented start to that wee boy's life. 2,000 miles. wow. can only get better. can only get better for him.
6:20 am
aberfeldy is the geographical heart of scotland — they say the beating heart of scotland. over the last three months, we've watched the town come together to offer homes to ukrainians. and now, finally, new faces are arriving. we've got the lovely tatiana who's living with linda cracknell, and then we've got my lovely maria and her little boy, david. how is everything going? wonderful. so we've got ignat, as well. he's 11 — ignat�*s gone away on school camp for three days. so he's settled in really well. already settled in and off on school camp. absolutely. at the bottom of my heart, ijust know that if any of my kids were in the kind of situation that they're in, that other people around the world would do exactly what we're doing. you just don't know how they're going to be. they don't know who they're going to be. we've got to take each day at a time, each tear at a time, each hug at a time, each cup of tea
6:21 am
at a time, and see where it goes. 0h. good to see you all! oh, my word. hello! hello, baby boy. this is all you left ukraine with? yeah, that's it. nothing else. imean... and, yeah, that was the most precious suitcase we had. we do feel all the support, all the love of all people. we feel how they want us here. we're just there to help support. oh, thank you. so glad we're here, finally. with a population of only 2,000, the town is changing. tatiana is now helping to support a growing number of ukrainians arriving here. we reckon 36. 36? yeah, we reckon 36, and two tonight and two tomorrow morning. - wow. and about ten more are applying for their visas at the moment.
6:22 am
they recently arrived. we have a trauma counsellor, so anybody that's struggling, i we can help them. because, as warm the welcome, none of this is easy. natasha fears for her five—year—old daughter. yeah. i mean, she is... and sometimes she's crying and wanting to go back home to ukraine, missing her friends and toys. and tatiana needs only one word to convey her trauma. is everybody ok back home? who you've left — your friends and family? "nyet." no. but now, they say, is not the time for tears. we still have to move on. we have to rebuild our lives. we have to help all the families to settle down. we'll have our time to cry in the future. but for now, we have to be all together helping the others. that's the most important thing. thank you, maria. we're taken to meet with vitalina, who has moved into angel's
6:23 am
house with her young son. she shows us a photograph of life before the bombs fell. this is maxi? before her husband had to fight. she said that it's the last picture of them taken right on her birthday. that's the very last picture of the family together. if i was in that situation, i'd hope someone would help me. maybe mark has no idea how lucky he is. born by c—section, his father, andre, was given rare permission to leave ukraine with tatiana's father. now he is working to support his family in their new home. and tell him mark is beautiful! she translates: like his mum. they show me a photo of mark's grandmother — still working in a hospital in kyiv. one time a man came with a gun and he said, "you're going to stitch me or i'm going to kill you here." he was russian. but she's still not going to leave because that's where she's needed. what's her name? lydia. her name is lydia.
6:24 am
brave lady. yeah. for now, this is mark's home — with mo, here in the scottish highlands. how's it all going? phew! well. we just talk all the time. we talked before you got here. every evening we sit around, we have a family meal together. mark is always on the table. it's just... i don't know. it'sjust the cure for us. if i hadn't had mark, i would have joined the army. but once you have a baby, priorities change a lot. and the only thought i had from the moment when the war started — i need to save mark. and he has to be in a safe place. he has to have the future. you don't want his life to be shaped by war? absolutely. no mother would want that for their children. we've been through all these crazyjourneys on many, many trains, ferries, trains, staying here and there.

6:28 am
you know, the terrorists, whatever they wished to achieve, they have failed — they have failed to do that in this community, and they should know that they have failed to do that anywhere in this country. police and crime commissioners forforces bordering london say the metropolitan police is acting selfishly, by paying £5,000 to poach their experienced officers. the one—off payment is available for those who transfer to scotland yard by december. the met has called the move a "bold step" , but neighbouring forces from kent and sussex say it's putting internal targets ahead of community safety. the queen's plane was forced to abort landing in london on tuesday as she travelled home to windsor castle. the 96—year—old monarch was travelling from balmoral ready to join the platinum jubilee celebrations. her 13—seater plane was caught in an electrical storm, rain and hail, which forced the pilot to abandon landing on the first attempt. and as those celebrations get under way, platinumjubilee—themed crochet creations have been popping
6:29 am
up around the country. if you take a stroll around south london, you might see these queens, corgis and carriages, made by a community group in carshalton. a quick look at the tubes if you're using them this morning. there are severe delays on the hammersmith and city line because of train cancellations. —— a good service on all lines. hello, good morning. well, it's all good news weather—wise across the capital for the start of the long jubilee bank holiday weekend. on thursday and friday it will be dry, there will be lots of sunshine around and it will be feeling warmer. but not quite so rosy over the weekend itself, saturday and sunday. showery outbreaks of rain moving in from the south but still plenty of uncertainty, still, over the timing and the location of the showers. so do keep checking the forecast. for this morning, it's another locally chilly start to the day, temperatures having dropped back to single figures in many areas last night. there is a dry weather around this morning,
6:30 am
there's some areas of cloud already and another rash of showers spreading in from the west as we head throughout the morning and into the first part of the afternoon. again, some of these showers could be heavy and they could be thundery but there should be fewer showers than many of us saw yesterday. so brighter spells in between and we should end the day with sunny skies, top temperatures a little higher, peaking at 18, maybe even 19 celsius. then it's rather chilly again overnight tonight, temperatures will be back into single figures. long clear spells. thursday, a lovely looking day, lots of sunshine, around. and temperatures could climb as high as 21 or 22 degrees. i'm back in half an hour. until then follow us on facebook and instagram for plenty more. now it's back to sally and jon. i'll see you soon. we were just looking ahead to that
6:31 am
big football match tonight, scotland ukraine semifinals. the match has been delayed from march because of the outbreak of war. chetan pathak is in glasgow's hampden park where they'll play later. good morning. here, at hampden park, a cool crisp morning but the sun is beginning to come out from behind the clouds ahead of a huge, huge game this afternoon and evening. how the teams deal with the emotions will be key, for scotland, a chance to move closer to the world cup finals in qatar, if they win tonight they will play wales on sunday for a winner takes all place at the world cup. but what is happening in ukraine and pains everything we will see here this evening. ukraine have not been playing for months as you would expect, half of their players
6:32 am
play in the domestic league in ukraine which was suspended in april. they have been in a training camp in slovenia only playing friendly matches. scotland's players have been playing championship play—off final, champions league finals, the premiership title race as well. for the ukraine players, they have had messages from soldiers and generals in the ukrainian army saying, do it for us tonight, galvanised the nation, we are all behind it. for scotland, how they put that to one side and deal with the match will be fascinating to see. what we have heard from andy roberts in the scotland captain is that it will be difficult to deal with that emotion, but they have to focus on the football match in hand. looking ahead to the game and the context around it is our sports news correspondent. it's a group of players preparing for a game most of the world wants them to lose. if scotland are to make it to qatar, they must first see off ukraine. even a former scotland captain has
6:33 am
been vocal in recent days about cheering on the away side. graeme souness has split opinion, i think it's safe to say. were you surprised by him saying that he wants ukraine to win? i can't... i can't put my mind, or i can't put myself in anyone else's mind. everyone has an opinion on the situation. every opinion will be different. i focus on myself. i want to go to, like i said earlier, i want to go to ukraine... sorry, i want to go to qatar with scotland and the players want to go as well. so that's what i'll focus on. his players, like everyone else, know exactly the horrors faced by the countrymen and women of their fellow professionals. they know, too, the lift a victory would give a nation fighting for its very survival. it's impossible to imagine. it doesn't change anything from our point of view. it's still a football match. it's 11 v11, and no matter what's going on outwith that,
6:34 am
it's about us sticking together and putting our game plan in place and making sure we do what we we can. ukraine trained at hampden. afterwards, a media conference... where manchester city player oleksandr zinchenko broke down talking about ukrainian children. we can speak a lot, but we need to do on the pitch. so that's what we're going to try to do tomorrow. we're going to try to make them happy and proud. it was 3—1 scotland back in 2007. in very different times, the same again would be cheered around the country, but maybe not around the world. chris mclaughlin, bbc news. that match kicks off at 7:45pm at hampden park tonight, live
6:35 am
commentary on bbc scotland and bbc radio 5 live. just one other sports story overnight. at the french open, an extraordinary match yet again between found the and novak djokovic, it ended with —— with found adele, —— rafa nadal. nadal started well and fought off resistance from the defending champion djokovic who forced a fourth set tie break. but nadal held on to secure the win after over four hours on court. he nearly retired last year, now into the semifinals, nadal, where he will play alexander zverev for a place in the final. nadal inspired by real madrid winning their 14th champions league title, is going to his 14th glaring —— grand slam. scotland have a very clear task
6:36 am
ahead of them. graeme souness saying, how do you possibly deal with the emotion of this match, and putting that to one side? scotland's players in no doubt, they know the opportunity ahead of them, winter night and beat wales and they are in the world cup finals. they can maybe take inspiration from 2007, when they beat ukraine here by three goals to one. the ukrainian players saying that they also want a strong scotland tonight, they don't expect any favours of any nature. their own coach saying that they have to focus on the game in hand as well, they cannot possibly feel the weight on their shelters throughout the 90 minutes, to quote his words, they have to deal with that. and focus on the game itself. it will be an enormous challenge and how they navigate that this evening tonight at hampden park. it is a sell—out, the tartan army have been sent to the tartan army have been sent to the lyrics to the ukrainian national
6:37 am
anthem, that will be an extraordinary moment in itself before the game. we have never seen a match played like this within this sort of backdrop. and scotland ukraine this evening, both plagued hugely emotional reasons but also understanding they have a potential world cup they ten reach if they win tonight and on sunday. thank you so much, chetan, we will talk to you later on. we just wejust wanna we just wanna talk about one of the stories that we have seen a dominating over the last few days. staff shortages and job cuts are just some of the reasons being given for flight cancellations and long delays for passengers at uk airports. but will things improve any time soon? joining us now is kully sandhu, from the aviation recruitment network, who has worked in the industry for more than 20 years. good morning to you. i am wondering

6:43 am
including the peacocks. give us a twirl! you've got the biggest smile on yourface. it's cos i'm 15, so this is the first event i've ever done like this. so excited. in a few days' time, you're going to be doing this for real at buckingham palace. yeah, buckingham palace in london as well! as it makes its way through the capital, the pageant will tell the story of the queen's 70 year reign. it's kind of a once in a lifetime thing to take part in. i love performing, i love putting on my carnival costume, i made this. have you got earplugs? yeah, i need them by the end! does the queen need earplugs? no, she'll be dancing. even if she's sat down, she'll still give us a littlejig, it's fine. every group taking part will have a different theme. and for these guys, it's the cultural diversity of the north west of england. just explain how this works. so essentially, i have a large
6:44 am
backpack on which all centralises it to a main sort of metal skeleton. my caribbean queen is actually 3d printed, so she's quite unique. this looks heavy. yeah, it's not the lightest thing! but to be honest, once you've kind of got it on and you're moving, it's all right. three hours, you're going to have to do this? yeah, i'm going to definitely have a very large breakfast! such an expression, it's the only time i everfeel powerful. so to be able to do it on such a large scale is so good. nicholas has never been to london before. it's going to be quite a weekend for him. are you nervous about about buckingham palace? yes, definitely. and i mean, it's like, they said the estimated audience is 1.5 billion, which is a lot.
6:45 am
well, there's about 15 people here watching you at the moment. yeah, and that's nerve—racking. i mean, i've got a friend in the audience and even in front of her, it's scary. so the entire world is terrifying. what really interests me is that you're a really young, diverse bunch of kids from across greater manchester and you're celebrating a lady who's in her 90s and lives in a castle. what connection do you feel to the queen? i think it's all about being english and being part of the uk. ifeel like, she's, like, you know, the big mum of the uk, she just takes care of everyone. you're going to be waving at your big mum? definitely! give me a royal wave. oh, you've got it nailed. the pageant will bring together community groups from right across the uk. and 200 miles south, in somerset, they're also getting ready. every winter, the carnival clubs
6:46 am
here compete with one another. but for thejubilee, they've come together to build one mega royal cart. i'm just amazed at it all. we've seen it in the shed in its three sections, but it's nothing until it's been brought out and alljoined and coupled together. looking at the drawing and looking at this, this is 100 times better than the drawing itself. so i am very, very pleased with what's turned out. push up's fine, it's the pull down. so you want one person? on sunday, it's going to be absolutely magic. the adrenaline will be pumping, and you've just got to go with it and you've just got to enjoy the whole experience. without a doubt, it'll go up to the wire. we will still be there, probably in horse guards parade, putting the finishing touches to it. and they say carnival never starts unless she's still got wet paint on her. and i think we'll still have
6:47 am
wet paint on this one. # whoohoo, it's a celebration! back in oldham, a few final touches before they head to the palace. are you nervous? i don't know what i've got to be nervous about. i think there's nerves of, oh, will the coach get there in time? it's all the boring stuff that i'm nervous about. i'm not nervous about any of this wonderfulness here at all, no. if you could bottle the energy in this room, blimey! they'd be struggling, it'd be, like, exploding. and talking of energy, at 61, danny is closer to the queen's age than most of the other performers. can you do this for three hours? yeah, if the music's going, i can go! keep going, then! so watch out, your majesty. in 70 years, you've never seen
6:48 am
a show quite like this. you are going to be exhausted. i know! i expect it. oh, wow! you guys are great, though. feel the music in your heart. 0h, yay, yeah! he is the most exhausting company but every carnival needs daddy! do you remember hit man and her, late night itv in the 90s, he was one of the dancers. night itv in the 90s, he was one of the dancers-— the dancers. and he is still dancing! — the dancers. and he is still dancing! he _ the dancers. and he is still dancing! he hasn't- the dancers. and he is still| dancing! he hasn't stopped the dancers. and he is still i dancing! he hasn't stopped since, the dancers. and he is still - dancing! he hasn't stopped since, i said, iwill dancing! he hasn't stopped since, i said, i will have _ dancing! he hasn't stopped since, i said, i will have what _ dancing! he hasn't stopped since, i said, i will have what you _ dancing! he hasn't stopped since, i said, i will have what you are i said, i will have what you are having! a great day with the global groove group in oldham and watch out for them on the tv on sunday afternoon. for them on the tv on sunday afternoon-— for them on the tv on sunday afternoon. �* , ., ., ., , , afternoon. let's go to a slightly more sedate — afternoon. let's go to a slightly more sedate environment i afternoon. let's go to a slightly i more sedate environment although carroll might be break dancing! we
6:49 am
are going to the buckingham palace gardens. she is there this morning. sunshine! it is gorgeous this morning, the sun is shining, the gardens are pristine, there is some dew on the grass, much more than that injune. it has been a chilly start but it is warming up. the gardens at buckingham palace are the largest private gardens in london. if queen victoria was to step out here she would recognise the layout which was originally developed way back in the 18th century. it takes 12 gardeners to keep them looking as proceed as they look at the moment. and the area i am in plays host to many of the garden parties, thousands of people attend through the year. it's one of the venues for the gold duke of edinburgh awards, where they are presented to those who have achieved that accolade. the forecast for the platinum jubilee weekend is one of some warm sunshine, but there will also be some showers, and some of
6:50 am
them will be heavy and thundering down pulse. if you are having a garden party, or a street party —— thundery downpours. do bear that in mind if you are having a party outside. low pressure is in the east, high pressure is building in and a weatherfront east, high pressure is building in and a weather front is coming into the midlands. that is producing some rain in the midlands and wales, sinking south—east through the day, weakening and turning more showery. many of us starting at the chilly note but a dry one, some showers around and we will see further showers through the day, again some like yesterday will be slow moving, heavy and thundery but it should try out across parts of wales and south—west england with temperatures up south—west england with temperatures up to 18 or 19 degrees. this evening and overnight, once again the showers will fade, some clear skies, patchy mist and fog for big, and a weather front in northern patchy mist and fog for big, and a weatherfront in northern ireland will bring more cloud into northern
6:51 am
ireland during the night. and a chilly night in prospect. any mist and fog overnight will lift tomorrow morning, quickly, and we will see some rain moving across northern ireland. one or two showers affecting western scotland and northern england but for the rest of us it will be dry and in the sunshine, it will feel quite warm with highs up to about 21 degrees. for friday, we have got some showery rain moving across northern ireland, through the central swathes of the uk, one or two showers getting into the south—west as well. away from that it will be dry, some sunshine around. it is going to feel cooler in the north sea coastline, because we have got an easterly breeze here. top temperatures for you might be 14 degrees. in the sunshine in the highest areas, we are looking at highs up to 22 celsius. if you are wondering about the beacons being lit on thursday, it is looking like there will be some rain across
6:52 am
northern ireland, and some showers across the north of scotland and it will turn breezy across the channel islands and the very far north of scotland. all in all, it is not looking too shabby for most. it doesn't look shabby where you are, it is gorgeous! it it doesn't look shabby where you are, it is gorgeous!— are, it is gorgeous! it really is, i am a lucky _ are, it is gorgeous! it really is, i am a lucky girl! _ are, it is gorgeous! it really is, i am a lucky girl! that _ are, it is gorgeous! it really is, i am a lucky girl! that is - are, it is gorgeous! it really is, i am a lucky girl! that is so i are, it is gorgeous! it really is, i am a lucky girl! that is so true. | am a lucky girl! that is so true. don't you _ am a lucky girl! that is so true. don't you just _ am a lucky girl! that is so true. don't you just want _ am a lucky girl! that is so true. don't you just want to - am a lucky girl! that is so true. don't you just want to run i am a lucky girl! that is so true. l don't you just want to run around and do _ don't you just want to run around and do something silly because you have got— and do something silly because you have got the whole place to yourself?— have got the whole place to ourself? , ., �* , ., �*, yourself? yes! you can't see what's ha aeanin yourself? yes! you can't see what's happening behind — yourself? yes! you can't see what's happening behind the _ yourself? yes! you can't see what's happening behind the camera. i yourself? yes! you can't see what's happening behind the camera. we . yourself? yes! you can't see what's i happening behind the camera. we will look forward to _ happening behind the camera. we will look forward to that _ happening behind the camera. we will look forward to that later. _ happening behind the camera. we will look forward to that later. we - happening behind the camera. we will look forward to that later. we are i look forward to that later. we are havina look forward to that later. we are having our— look forward to that later. we are having our own _ look forward to that later. we are having our own little _ look forward to that later. we are having our own little celebration. having our own little celebration this morning. brute having our own little celebration this morning-— having our own little celebration this morning. having our own little celebration this mornina. . ., ., . ,, ., this morning. we are going back and earl ! nina's down there getting in the spirit. good morning! we arejust good morning! we are just outside bbc breakfast towers. braving what

was correlated 70 years ago. a wonderful thing to have lots of you are deciding to get the spirit. we have been on a whistle stop tour of the uk to check out the tax and the tasty treats you have been making and buying ahead of the once—in—a—lifetime weekend —— check out the —— check out the tat! first stop, haydock on merseyside, where king richard of wholesale balloons is reigning over some royally big revenues. it's been absolutely incredible. if someone would have said to me earlier on this year that jubilee will take off, i'd have scoffed. just because recent years have shown with royal weddings, they've been ok, they've been a bit of a slow burn. but now, bang, right from january. bigger than royal weddings? bigger than any royal wedding we've known, yeah, absolutely. do you think people are just ready for a good old knees—up? i think, to be honest, the country is itching to have a party and we're going to celebrate royally, big time. the amount of bunting and jubilee
6:55 am
things that have gone, you wait. this country's going to rock. and across the uk, the queen's big day has inspired businesses to get creative and make a royal mint. in cardiff, what could be more british than a union jack fish and chips? mm! fish and chips, fit for a queen. if you say so. meanwhile, in the queen's hometown, even the pets have a penchant for a party. coronation dog food, anyone? do you want some coronation chicken to celebrate the queen'sjubilee? and up in ballater, down the road from the queen's spiritual home, the balmoral estate, princess anne is a regular for her smoky bacon at this butcher's. will she resist the sizzling of theirjubilee pork and cranberry special sausages? we chose cranberry because a former royal chef said online
6:56 am
that she really likes cranberries. and the apples we're using is pink lady apples, which is really quite fitting for the moment. we're hopefully going to send some up to balmoral when she arrives up here on holiday. and for afters, let's head to newark in nottinghamshire for eclairs with a specialjubilee filling of strawberries and cream. 30,000 done, and they can't pump them full fast enough. demand for the eclairs has been really, really exciting. they've actually doubled since we started to sell them and actually they've exceeded all of our expectations. they're doing really well. it's the first time we've done anything like this, but we wanted to be part of such a big historic occasion and just provide something in our own small way that people can share and take to parties and just share with family and friends. we reallyjust wanted to be
6:57 am
a part of such a big occasion, do something new. times are hard in lots of households, but many are finding the space to spend on this most special of occasions. what are people asking for when they come in? bunting, red, white and blue latex, unionjack, unionjack but hand wavers, bowlers, anythingjubilee—related, unionjack related all together, really. people are going for it. they really are. whether you're going big or small or maybe not at all, this bump to lots of small businesses is receiving a royal welcome. happyjubilee, your majesty! i think she enjoyed that. i have just been taking her corgi susan for a little walk on behalf of her majesty, there you go, ma'am. she has not fallen over. barclays estimates that small and medium—sized businesses, 60% of them will receive some sort of boost over the royal spent over the four—day
6:58 am
period. we know about trooping the colour, the red arrows, the balcony wave, but we want to hear your preparations forjubilee weekend. what have you been buying and making, how are you planning to celebrate? get in touch in all of the usual ways. for now, the news, travel and weather wherever you are preparing for thejubilee weekend! good morning and hello from bbc london, i'm alice salfield. a memorial plaque to the survivors of the london bridge and borough market terror attacks is to be unveiled on friday — to mark the five—year anniversary. eight people were killed, and 48 others were injured when three terrorists drove a van into pedestrians on the bridge in 2017, before launching a knife attack. one eyewitness and local resident told us, despite the horror, it's brought the community closer together. you know, the terrorists, whatever they wished to achieve, they have failed — they have failed to do that in this community, and they should know that they have failed to do that
6:59 am
anywhere in this country. police and crime commissioners forforces bordering london say the metropolitan police is acting selfishly, by paying £5,000 to poach their experienced officers. the one—off payment is available for those who transfer to scotland yard by december. the met has called the move a "bold step" — but neighbouring forces from kent and sussex say it's putting internal targets ahead of community safety. the queen's plane was forced to abort landing in london as she travelled home to windsor castle yesterday. the 96—year—old monarch was travelling from balmoral, ready to join the platinum jubilee celebrations. her 13—seater plane was caught in an electrical storm, rain and hail — which forced the pilot to abandon landing on the first attempt. and as those celebrations get underway, platinumjubilee—themed crochet creations have been popping up around the country. if you take a stroll around south london, you might see these queens, corgis and carriages made by a community group in carshalton.
7:00 am
a quick look at the tubes if you're using them this morning. there's a good service on all lines at the moment. onto the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. well, it's all good news weather—wise across the capital for the start of the long jubilee bank holiday weekend. on thursday and friday it will be dry, there will be lots of sunshine around and it will be feeling warmer. but not quite so rosy over the weekend itself, saturday and sunday. showery outbreaks of rain moving in from the south but still plenty of uncertainty, still, over the timing and the location of the showers. so do keep checking the forecast. for this morning, it's another locally chilly start to the day, temperatures having dropped back to single figures in many areas last night. there is a dry weather around this morning, there's some areas of cloud already and another rash of showers spreading in from the west as we head throughout the morning and into the first part of the afternoon.
7:01 am
again, some of these showers could be heavy and they could be thundery but there should be fewer showers than many of us saw yesterday. so brighter spells in between and we should end the day with sunny skies, top temperatures a little higher, peaking at 18, maybe even 19 celsius. then it's rather chilly again overnight tonight, temperatures will be back into single figures. long clear spells. thursday, a lovely looking day, lots of sunshine, around. and temperatures could climb as high as 21 or 22 degrees. i'm back in half an hour. if you're not already, follow us on facebook and instagram for plenty more. see you soon.
7:02 am
good morning, welcome to breakfast with sally nugentjon kay. our headlines today. a warning that travel disruption could get worse as the government calls for talks with the airline industry. the prime minister under pressure, as his own ethics advisor says borisjohnson still has questions to answer over pa rtygate. good morning. iam here at good morning. i am here at hampden park ahead of scotland's world cup play—off semifinal against brain, who will be playing their first competitive match since the russian invasion. the coronation of china is out, the bunting is up, rein max at the ready, one very special guest, her little special guest, please join us for the bbc breakfastjubilee street party!
7:03 am
good morning, the sun is beating down in buckingham palace guidance. for many of us today it will be a day of sunshine and showers. some of them heavy and thundery and slow—moving but they will not be as many as there was yesterday. all the details later in the programme. it's wednesday 1st june. the transport secretary grant shapps is planning to meet all sides in the aviation industry to discuss the continuing disruption at airports. he's accused airlines of overselling flights and holidays. unions have warned that the situation could get worse before it gets better. our correspondent zoe conway reports. this guy's a legend. "this guy's a legend," a passenger says, as he films out of the plane window. he's referring to the man in the hi—vis jacket loading the bags — who's in fact the plane's co—pilot. it shows just how short—staffed some airports are. the aviation industry laid off thousands of people during the pandemic.
7:04 am
now, it can't recruit people quickly enough. precious holidays have been ruined. vivien and her husband john were meant to take off on monday from bristol to minorca. after hours of queuing, the flight was cancelled. we were supposed to be meeting our three sons out there. one of them was 50 — it's his 50th birthday — and it's just not happened and we're very stressed out. my husband's 80 years old, we can't really cope with that sort of thing, with the airport. i've never seen it like that before. there's just no organisation at all. anthony and his daughter emily were meant to be in turkey by now. they spent two days at manchester airport, then their flight was cancelled. i spent my birthday at gate b10 of manchester airport terminal 2, where it was hot. there were lots of upset children and it was, i guess, probably the worst birthday i've had
7:05 am
— yeah, by far. as the queues backed up, the blame game got under way. the government accused the airlines and airports of not being prepared, and said it had injected £8 billion into the industry during the pandemic. the transport secretary grant shapps says airlines seriously oversold flights and holidays — and is now demanding a meeting with aviation bosses. the holiday giant tui has cancelled 200 of its flights from manchester airport injune, which will affect more than 30,000 people. they say this is necessary to provide stability and a better customer service. no—one wants to be a harbinger of doom, but it's difficult to believe when we've experienced it in april, we're experiencing it in may, that you're not going to experience it acrossjune and july and august when the volumes are set to increase even further. a spokesperson for heathrow said that, whilst there have been queues, the airport was flowing. at gatwick, a spokesperson said the airport was operating normally, but was busy.
7:06 am
britain's runways are not due to quieten down any time soon — thisjubilee weekend, 10,000 flights are meant to be jetting off. zoe conway, bbc news. as we've heard, the travel company tui says it will be cancelling six flights a day from manchester airport until the end ofjune, affecting more than 30,000 people. our reporter sarah rogers is there for us. lots of the problems have been right at the start of the day over the last few days. how is it looking this morning?— last few days. how is it looking this morning? last few days. how is it looking this mornina ? ., ., ., ~' this morning? here, overlooking the runwa , it this morning? here, overlooking the runway. it has _ this morning? here, overlooking the runway, it has been _ this morning? here, overlooking the runway, it has been fairly _ this morning? here, overlooking the runway, it has been fairly peaceful. . runway, it has been fairly peaceful. make of that what you will but the flights are starting to ramp up at the moment. but of course it is inside that is the problem. we have seen all those queues of people snaking around, waiting for hours at security. watching the flights
7:07 am
leave, you have to hope, actually, they have all the passengers on board and notjust the passengers but their banks with them, as well. this feels quite familiar. we have told this story over easter and yet the problems still exist. tui have cancelled a quarter of the flights from manchester airport, which is affecting some 30,000 people. they apologised, they said it is a difficult decision and flights from other airports are going ahead as normal. not great if you are flying from manchester. easyjet cancelling 24 flights a day until the 6th of june. british airways 100 flights per day but they say they were preplanned. the transport secretary grant shapps is now demanding this meeting to find out what went wrong. he said operators seriously oversold flights and holidays relative to their capacity to deliver. meanwhile aviation bosses who are desperate to get staff in, they want the
7:08 am
government to speed up security passes so that staff can get to work quicker. there is blame game going on but none of that is going to help the people thatjust desperately wants to get on their well earned holiday. wants to get on their well earned holida . ~ ,,., , wants to get on their well earned holida . ~ , , ., ,, wants to get on their well earned holida . ~ , ., ~' wants to get on their well earned holida . ~ , ., ,, , holiday. absolutely, thank you very much indeed- _ borisjohnson is facing mounting pressure after his own ethics adviser said the prime minister still has legitimate questions to answer over his conduct during lockdown. lord geidt said mrjohnson needed to explain whether he had breached the ministerial code of conduct after being fined for holding parties in lockdown. we're joined now by our political correspondentjonathan blake. how much more uncomfortable is this for the prime minister? it is how much more uncomfortable is this for the prime minister?— for the prime minister? it is not ideal by any _ for the prime minister? it is not ideal by any means _ for the prime minister? it is not ideal by any means and - for the prime minister? it is not ideal by any means and this i for the prime minister? it is not ideal by any means and this is l ideal by any means and this is another update when the prime minister is struggling to move on. lord geidt, the impend pendant adviser to the premised on standards —— look at independent adviser. he
7:09 am
has made it clear that borisjohnson fell short of his expectations under the ministerial code. he has not said he has broken the rules but has said he has broken the rules but has said that advice that he gave to downing street officials that the prime minister need to make clear publicly the reasons he believed he had not broken the ministerial code needed to be heeded and that left legitimate questions of whether the prime minister had indeed fallen foul of the rules because in the ministerial code there is an overarching expectation that ministers will abide by the law. borisjohnson was fined for breaking the law in his response to lord geidt, —— he was fined for breaking the law. in his response to lord geidt, he said he did not set out to break the rules. he also makes the point that a fixed penalty notice does not equal a criminal conviction.— does not equal a criminal conviction. ~ ., ., ., conviction. meanwhile, on the other side of the chamber, _ conviction. meanwhile, on the other side of the chamber, keir— conviction. meanwhile, on the other side of the chamber, keir starmer i side of the chamber, keir starmer and angela rayner have got these
7:10 am
questionnaires from durham police. they have been issued bastion s by durham police who are investigating that event in april last year in the run—up to a by—election in the area where sir keir starmer was pictured drinking a beer. there was a takeaway curry. at the time the rules band socialising indoors and mixing of households except for work purposes, and labour have maintained throughout that that was a work event and that sir keir starmer was eating and drinking in between work. durham police are investigating that event there is a lot at stake, sir keir starmer that he would resign if he is keir starmer that he would resign if heisissued keir starmer that he would resign if he is issued with a fixed penalty notice and so has angela rayner. the investigation is expected to run for at least a few more weeks before it concludes, and detectives will be looking at the answers sir keir starmer and angela rayner give and corroborating that with other evidence they have gathered to come to a view, and a decision as to whether they believe the law was broken. ., ., ., ,, whether they believe the law was

7:16 am
on the family's rocking horse, which survives to this day. the house is now home to the queen's first cousin, sir simon bowes—lyon, and his wife caroline. and mementoes of the queen's many visits and the strong family connection are very much in evidence. we start from a very young age for the queen, and you can see her aged...one or less, in a pram. alongside the family photos of the young elizabeth playing in the grounds of the house is a selection of christmas cards — all of which are signed with herfamily name, lilibet. so here is another christmas card — clearly, they're rather more grown—up here — but, again, signed "lilibet" in a more recognisable hand, perhaps. yes. and it was at st paul's walden bury, where elizabeth's height was recorded with pencil markings on a wall.
7:17 am
july 1931. so she was just five years old then. quite a good height, actually, for a five—year—old, i would have thought. yes. and then 19... '32. and that '33 was not — she didn't grow very much at that point. and then, of course, she shot up, up to may 1939. and isn't that interesting, that here she is measured injuly 1952 — so...what — four orfive months after her succession? — and she is recorded as, of course, the queen. the bowes—lyons are part of the queen's extended family. they've had a closer view than most of the person who's navigated the ups and downs of the past 70 years. she's always been ready to meet the...whatever was demanded of her. so she's been a queen through all sorts of troubled times, all sorts of good times.
7:18 am
and she's always risen to the occasion and been a wonderful rock of stability through all the changes. she's really a queen for all times, i'd say. nicholas witchell, bbc news. an eye on the way slightly there? do an eye on the way slightly there? burr that but the whole programme? the queen must be one of the most—photographed people in the world, but what does it take to get a really iconic photo of the monarch? let's find out! for nearly two decades, photographer chris jackson has captured some of her majesty's biggest moments for the getty pictures agency. chris joins us now. good morning. thank you for coming in. is she difficult _ good morning. thank you for coming in. is she difficult to _ good morning. thank you for coming in. is she difficult to photograph? . in. is she difficult to photograph? there have been so many photos. she is uuite there have been so many photos. sue: is quite simply the there have been so many photos. si9: is quite simply the most photographed woman in the world. i'm not sure i have ever taken a perfect

7:27 am
and they should know that they have failed to do that anywhere in this country. police and crime commissioners forforces bordering london say the metropolitan police is acting selfishly, by paying £5,000 to poach their experienced officers. the one—off payment is available for those who transfer to scotland yard by december. the met has called the move a "bold step", but neighbouring forces from kent and sussex say it's putting internal targets ahead of community safety. the queen's plane was forced to abort landing in london as she travelled home to windsor castle yesterday. the 96—year—old monarch was travelling from balmoral ready to join the platinum jubilee celebrations. her 13—seater plane was caught in an electrical storm, rain and hail, which forced the pilot to abandon landing on the first attempt. and as those celebrations get under way, platinumjubilee—themed crochet creations have been popping up around the country. if you take a stroll around south london, you might see these queens, corgis and carriages made by a community group in carshalton.
7:28 am
a quick look at the tubes if you're using them this morning. there's a good service on all lines at the moment. onto the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. well, it's all good news weather—wise across the capital for the start of the long jubilee bank holiday weekend. on thursday and friday it will be dry, there will be lots of sunshine around and it will be feeling warmer. but not quite so rosy over the weekend itself, saturday and sunday. showery outbreaks of rain moving in from the south but still plenty of uncertainty, still, over the timing and the location of the showers. so do keep checking the forecast. for this morning, it's another locally chilly start to the day, temperatures having dropped back to single figures in many areas last night. there is dry weather around this morning, there's some areas of cloud already and another rash of showers spreading in from the west as we head throughout the morning and into the first
7:29 am
part of the afternoon. again, some of these showers could be heavy and they could be thundery but there should be fewer showers than many of us saw yesterday. so brighter spells in between and we should end the day with sunny skies, top temperatures a little higher, peaking at 18, maybe even 19 celsius. then it's rather chilly again overnight tonight, temperatures will be back into single figures. long clear spells. thursday, a lovely looking day, lots of sunshine, around. and temperatures could climb as high as 21 or 22 degrees. i'm back in an hour. but there's plenty more on our facebook, instagram and website. now it's back to sally and jon. see you soon. hello, this is breakfast with sally nugent and jon kay. there's a big night of football ahead as scotland play ukraine in the world cup play—off semi—finals. the match has been delayed from march because of the outbreak of war. chetan pathak is in glasgow's hampden park where they'll play later.
7:30 am
this is a big moment, chetan? a huge one for both scotland and ukraine, the sun is out at hampden park this morning. the ukraine, the sun is out at hampden park this morning.— park this morning. the kick-off is at 7:45pm — park this morning. the kick-off is at 7:45pm but — park this morning. the kick-off is at 7:45pm but the _ park this morning. the kick-off is at 7:45pm but the build-up i park this morning. the kick-off is at 7:45pm but the build-up is i at 7:45pm but the build—up is beginning in march, when the match was cancelled for obvious reasons, postponed until now because of the russian invasion of ukraine. since then ukrainian team, half of the players have not been playing competitive football, they have been holed up in a training camp in slovenia. scotland are very different, theirfinals —— their players have been in the premiership final, champions league finals, the premier league and the championship. huge emotions around the match tonight.
7:31 am
it's a group of players preparing for a game most of the world wants them to lose. if scotland are to make it to qatar, they must first see off ukraine. even a former scotland captain has been vocal in recent days about cheering on the away side. graeme souness has split opinion, i think it's safe to say. were you surprised by him saying that he wants ukraine to win? i can't... i can't put my mind, or i can't put myself in anyone else's mind. everyone has an opinion on the situation. every opinion will be different. i focus on myself. i want to go to, like i said earlier, i want to go to ukraine... sorry, i want to go to qatar with scotland and the players want to go as well. so that's what i'll focus on. his players, like everyone else, know exactly the horrors faced by the countrymen and women of their fellow professionals. they know, too, the lift a victory would give a nation fighting for its very survival. it's impossible to imagine. it doesn't change anything from our point of view. it's still a football match. it's11v11, and no matter what's
7:32 am
going on outwith that, it's about us sticking together and putting our game plan in place and making sure we do what we can. ukraine trained at hampden. afterwards, a media conference... where manchester city player oleksandr zinchenko broke down talking about ukrainian children. we can speak a lot, but we need to do on the pitch. so that's what we're going to try to do tomorrow. we're going to try to make them happy and proud. it was 3—1 scotland back in 2007. in very different times, the same again would be cheered around the country, but maybe not around the world. chris mclaughlin, bbc news.
7:33 am
the scotland captain saying he understands almost the whole world will want ukraine to win. whoever wins tonight will play wales in the play—off final on sunday and the winner of that match will head to the world cup in qatar later this year. thank you very much, chetan, we will hearfrom some fans thank you very much, chetan, we will hear from some fans from both sides in scotland later on. borisjohnson's standards advisor has said there are "legitimate questions" about whether he breached the ministerial code after getting fined for partygate. the prime minister insists there was no intent to break the law and no breach. we're joined now by the deputy prime minister, dominic raab. good morning, mr rab. —— mr raab. the fact that someone as senior as you is having to come out and defend the prime minister during this holiday suggests that downing street is worried about his position? i do is worried about his position? i do the rounds — is worried about his position? i do the rounds most _ is worried about his position? i rr the rounds most weeks so i would not

facilitate as holidays, we want to make sure people can do that but it is ultimately up to those businesses to respond to demand and the advice has been there for months now for the transport secretary to deal with recruitment issues. fundamentally i think what i am saying is, the responsibility is on them they get their capacity in place to deal with their capacity in place to deal with their customers and consumers. there have been some question about whether they have overbooked. we often find that with aviation and airline bookings, they overbooked and that is part of the economic model. they have got to address those issues. if there are smart and sensible and pragmatic things the government can do to support them we will do it but fundamentally it is for those businesses to do it and step up and plan and deliver the things we have been saying would come through as confidence in travel returns. we come through as confidence in travel returns. ~ ., ., ., returns. we have to leave it there, i was intrigued _ returns. we have to leave it there, i was intrigued when _ returns. we have to leave it there, i was intrigued when you _ returns. we have to leave it there, i was intrigued when you said - returns. we have to leave it there, i was intrigued when you said you | i was intrigued when you said you had to cancel holidays, where you meant to be away this week? i didn't

behind it is the story of a young woman who was given a role she did not expect and following that, seven decades of service. not many people can say they retained the same role with dedication and capability for 70 years, butjohn maguire has met two people who have. # the cat on the bus goes meow, meow... when teaching spreads across three generations, you know it's in the blood. it's always been a family affair. so this is me here. i'm sat on my mum's knee with my grandma, my auntie. this was my great—aunt. before little rainbow in pontefract was a nursery, it was a school — inglebrook — run byjoyce bellamy. i've always enjoyed being with the children, and ijust couldn't see any reason to stop. joyce worked for almost 70 years, but her life might have taken a different path. i was fast—tracked into grammar school and left when i was 15,
7:51 am
and the headmaster thought he was doing me a favour by finding me a post in a bank. and i hated it. then i saw an advert in the local paper that said "teachers wanted". so the die was cast, and a dynasty began. here today there's a daughter... ..two granddaughters... and even a great—granddaughter. joyce is quite the inspiration. my mum's amazing. she'd made that school for over 50 years, full of happy children that were eager to learn. and hopefully we're going to carry that on now with our early—years education. hello. keeping it in the family was notjust for staff, but also some pupils. you were a pupil and you were a pupil. i didn't know you were coming. mae and her mum, tara, were both at inglebrook school, and today make a surprise return. that's one of me. good heavens.
7:52 am
back in the day. i think inglebrook always taught kindness, consideration, manners, respect. and i think that's all really important. we did, we did. i think that's important because that sets you up for life. if you've got... if that's instilled in you... yeah. — ..then you can always... and to work hard. and that work ethic, lasting almost seven decades, is shared by brian chorley. yeah, remember those days very well. all those knives were double—edged. thanks to this footage unearthed by the bbc bristol news library, he can once again hear the machines — almost smell the leather. he began work at the clarks shoe factory in somerset in 1953, when he was just 15 years old. i can still picture those people there now. a handful of tacks in their mouth. take a tack out, hammer away.
7:53 am
by the age of 20, he'd saved enough for his first car. and in almost 70 years of work has never missed a day — but has been late just the once, during the heavy winter of 1963. i got a slight blemish on my record, i'd to go see my foreman. "sorry," i said. "i were late this morning," i said. "0h," he said. "don't worry, bri," he said, "i were late, as well." so brian was surrounded by all these shops, yet there's the old chimney. there's the old chimney. 83 years young, and brian still works at clarks. but today, retail shops have replaced workshops — all built on the old factory site. i'm sorry about the weather. on - so are we! didn't you organise it? he's one of the guest services team, helping shoppers. good morning. as for retirement, you won't be surprised to hear he has no intention of taking it easy. well, that's where i started, and that's where i intend to finish. ijust love myjob.

buckingham palace. i bright next to the vase which is the same height as a double—decker bus and is likely to see some water today because of forecast is another one of sunshine and showers, the showers heavy and thundery and slow—moving but not as prolific as yesterday. all the details late in the programme. it's wednesday 1st june. our main story. the transport secretary grant shapps is planning to meet all sides in the aviation industry to discuss the continuing disruption at airports. he's accused airlines of overselling flights and holidays. unions have warned that the situation could get worse before it gets better. our correspondent zoe conway reports. this guy's a legend. "this guy's a legend," a passenger says, as he films out of the plane window. he's referring to the man in the hi—vis jacket loading the bags — who's in fact the plane's co—pilot. it shows just how short—staffed some airports are.
8:03 am
the aviation industry laid off thousands of people during the pandemic. now, it can't recruit people quickly enough. precious holidays have been ruined. vivien and her husband john were meant to take off on monday from bristol to minorca. after hours of queuing, the flight was cancelled. we were supposed to be meeting our three sons out there. one of them was 50 — it's his 50th birthday — and it's just not happened and we're very stressed out. my husband's 80 years old, we can't really cope with that sort of thing, with the airport. i've never seen it like that before. there's just no organisation at all. anthony and his daughter emily were meant to be in turkey by now. they spent two days at manchester airport, then their flight was cancelled. i spent my birthday at gate b10 of manchester airport terminal 2, where it was hot. there were lots of upset children and it was, i guess, probably the worst birthday i've had
8:04 am
— yeah, by far. as the queues backed up, the blame game got under way. the government accused the airlines and airports of not being prepared, and said it had injected £8 billion into the industry during the pandemic. the transport secretary grant shapps says airlines seriously oversold flights and holidays — and is now demanding a meeting with aviation bosses. the holiday giant tui has cancelled 200 of its flights from manchester airport injune, which will affect more than 30,000 people. they say this is necessary to provide stability and a better customer service. no—one wants to be a harbinger of doom, but it's difficult to believe when we've experienced it in april, we're experiencing it in may, that you're not going to experience it acrossjune and july and august when the volumes are set to increase even further. a spokesperson for heathrow said that, whilst there have been queues, the airport was flowing. at gatwick, a spokesperson said

8:08 am
johnson is struggling to shake off the consequences of the partygate saga. he was fined by the metropolitan police for breaking lockdown laws, the sue gray report into the whole thing identify failures of leadership and judgment, and now the prime minister's own advisor on standards, he was responsible for overseeing the ministerial code, is calling into question whether he broke the rules then. lord geidt in his annual report, published last night, said that there were legitimate questions about whether the fact that the prime minister received a fixed penalty notice for breaking the law meant that he had fallen foul of the overarching expectation within the ministerial code that ministers should at all times comply with the law. he said that he had been urging officials at number 10 for the prime minister to make the case in public as to why he hadn't broken the rules, but that advice had not been heeded, so the prime minister wrote to lord geidt in a letter published
8:09 am
yesterday evening, setting out his justification that he didn't deliberately intend to break the rules. he had apologised to parliament and set the record straight. this is all happening of course as mps come out day by day in small numbers, relatively small numbers so far, criticising the prime minister and in some cases calling for him to resign. but the deputy prime minister dominic raab here on the programme dismissed talk of a confidence vote. the vast majority confidence vote. the vast ma'ority of viewers want i confidence vote. the vast ma'ority of viewers want us * confidence vote. the vast ma'ority of viewers want us focused h confidence vote. the vast majority of viewers want us focused on - confidence vote. the vast majority of viewers want us focused on the | of viewers want us focused on the 'ob of viewers want us focused on the job and _ of viewers want us focused on the job and the — of viewers want us focused on the job and the priorities they care about, — job and the priorities they care about, and that is why i am saying, look, _ about, and that is why i am saying, took. these — about, and that is why i am saying, look, these were significant issues but we _ look, these were significant issues but we have had a whole range of accountability and transparency around — accountability and transparency around it. — accountability and transparency around it, very happy to answer the questions _ around it, very happy to answer the questions on lord geidt, i don't questions on lord geidt, idon't think— questions on lord geidt, i don't think this — questions on lord geidt, i don't think this ends in a leadership challenge stop what i think the government should do and what i am calling _ government should do and what i am calling on— government should do and what i am calling on all conservative mps to do is _ calling on all conservative mps to do is to— calling on all conservative mps to do is to focus on what, as you say, viewers _ do is to focus on what, as you say, viewers expect their politicians of my constituents expect of me and i'm

8:18 am
i mean, she is... and sometimes she's crying and wanting to go back home to ukraine, missing her friends and toys. and tatiana needs only one word to convey her trauma. is everybody 0k back home? who you've left — your friends and family? she translates. nyet. "nyet." no. but now, they say, is not the time for tears. we still have to move on. we have to rebuild our lives. we have to help all the families to settle down. we'll have our time to cry in the future. but for now, we have to be all together helping the others. that's the most important thing. thank you, maria. we're taken to meet with vitalina, who has moved into angel's house with her young son. she shows us a photograph of life before the bombs fell. this is maxi? before her husband had to fight. she said that it's the last picture
8:19 am
of them taken right on her birthday. that's the very last picture of the family together. if i was in that situation, i'd hope someone would help me. baby mark has no idea how lucky he is. born by c—section, his father, andre, was given rare permission to leave ukraine with tatiana's father. now he is working to support his family in their new home. and tell him mark is beautiful! she translates: like his mum. they show me a photo of mark's grandmother — still working in a hospital in kyiv. one time a man came with a gun and he said, "you're going to stitch me or i'm going to kill you here." he was russian. but she's still not going to leave because that's where she's needed. what's her name? lydia. her name is lydiia. brave lady, brave lady. yeah. for now, this is mark's home — with mo, here in the scottish highlands.

a very good morning from bbc london, i'm alice salfield. a memorial plaque to the survivors of the london bridge and borough market terror attack is to be unveiled on friday to mark the five—year anniversary. eight people were killed and 48 others were injured when three terrorists drove a van into pedestrians on the bridge in 2017, before launching a knife attack. one eyewitness and local resident told us, despite the horror, it's brought the community closer together. you know, the terrorists, whatever they wished to achieve, they have failed — they have failed to do that in this community, and they should know that they have failed to do that anywhere in this country. police and crime commissioners forforces bordering london say the metropolitan police is acting selfishly by paying £5,000 to poach their experienced officers. the one—off payment is available for those who transfer to scotland yard by december. the met has called
8:29 am
the move a "bold step", but neighbouring forces from kent and sussex say it's putting internal targets ahead of community safety. the queen's plane was forced to abort landing in london as she travelled home to windsor castle yesterday. the 96—year—old monarch was travelling from balmoral ready to join the platinum jubilee celebrations. her 13—seater plane was caught in an electrical storm, rain and hail, which forced the pilot to abandon landing on the first attempt. and as those celebrations get underway, platinumjubilee—themed crochet creations have been popping up around the country. if you take a stroll around south london, you might see these queens, corgis and carriages made by a community group in carshalton. a quick look at the tubes if you're using them this morning. there's a good service on all lines at the moment. onto the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. well, it's all good news
8:30 am
weather—wise across the capital for the start of the long jubilee bank holiday weekend. on thursday and friday it will be dry, there will be lots of sunshine around and it will be feeling warmer. but not quite so rosy over the weekend itself, saturday and sunday. showery outbreaks of rain moving in from the south but still plenty of uncertainty, still, over the timing and the location of the showers. so do keep checking the forecast. for this morning, it's another locally chilly start to the day, temperatures having dropped back to single figures in many areas last night. there is dry weather around this morning, there's some areas of cloud already and another rash of showers spreading in from the west as we head throughout the morning and into the first part of the afternoon. again, some of these showers could be heavy and they could be thundery but there should be fewer showers than many of us saw yesterday. so brighter spells in between and we should end the day with sunny skies, top temperatures a little higher, peaking at 18, maybe even 19 celsius. then it's rather chilly again overnight tonight, temperatures will be back into single figures. long clear spells. thursday, a lovely looking day,

8:39 am
all the way from blackpool, madame tussauds. i have been asking her all morning how she rates my little finger. sipping the tea. in my own vintage china, coronation china. she hasn't been saying much about it. she is feeling quite quiet this morning as it has sues on her corgi so we will leave them to it. things like this, the memorabilia, we are going mad for it at the moment. it's estimated that the platinum jubilee will give £6.4 billion boost to the uk economy over the period. on top of that, 120 million will be spent on memorabilia, things like this, may be going to madame tussauds, big day is out to mark the occasion. even though times are difficult, we have been going mad for tasty treats and tat. we have gone on a whistle stop tour to see what and how you are celebrating. first stop, haydock on merseyside, where king richard of wholesale balloons is reigning over some royally big revenues.
8:40 am
it's been absolutely incredible. if someone would have said to me earlier on this year that jubilee will take off, i'd have scoffed. just because recent years have shown with royal weddings, they've been ok, they've been a bit of a slow burn. but now, bang, right from january. bigger than royal weddings? bigger than any royal wedding we've known, yeah, absolutely. do you think people are just ready for a good old knees—up? i think, to be honest, the country is itching to have a party and we're going to celebrate royally, big time. the amount of bunting and jubilee things that have gone, you wait. this country's going to rock. and across the uk, the queen's big day has inspired businesses to get creative and make a royal mint. in cardiff, what could be more british than a union jack fish and chips? mm! fish and chips, fit for a queen.
8:41 am
if you say so. meanwhile, in the queen's hometown, even the pets have a penchant for a party. coronation dog food, anyone? do you want some coronation chicken to celebrate the queen'sjubilee? and up in ballater, down the road from the queen's spiritual home, the balmoral estate, princess anne is a regular for her smoky bacon at this butcher's. will she resist the sizzling of theirjubilee pork and cranberry special sausages? we chose cranberry because a former royal chef said online that she really likes cranberries. and the apples we're using is pink lady apples, which is really quite fitting for the moment. we're hopefully going to send some up to balmoral when she arrives up here on holiday. and for afters, let's head to newark in nottinghamshire for eclairs with a specialjubilee filling of strawberries and cream. 30,000 done, and they can't pump them full fast enough.
8:42 am
demand for the eclairs has been really, really exciting. they've actually doubled since we started to sell them and actually they've exceeded all of our expectations. they're doing really well. it's the first time we've done anything like this, but we wanted to be part of such a big historic occasion and just provide something in our own small way that people can share and take to parties and just share with family and friends. we reallyjust wanted to be a part of such a big occasion, do something new. times are hard in lots of households, but many are finding the space to spend on this most special of occasions. what are people asking for when they come in? bunting, red, white and blue latex, unionjack, unionjack but hand wavers, bowlers, anythingjubilee—related, unionjack related all together, really. people are going for it. they really are. whether you're going big or small or maybe not at all, this bump to lots of small businesses is receiving
8:43 am
a royal welcome. happyjubilee, your majesty! do you know what, it was absolutely lovely finding out about how you are preparing for the weekend's events. i think the queen enjoyed that, her expression didn't change much but i think we can safely say she is pleased about that. but estimate that 60% of small and medium businesses will receive some kind of financial boost because of the jubilee weekend, even though times are hard people are deciding this is special enough to spend money on as ever we are in the hands of the weather gods. 16 thousand st parties are planned over the weekend, breaking all records according to the local government association. what do the weather gods have in store? only carroll knows the answer!
8:44 am
thank you, nina! very mixed this weekend, and i will come onto that in a jiffy. i am a chilly in the gardens of buckingham palace. they were developed in the late18th century, queen victoria were to step out here now she would recognise the layout. and they are maintained by only 12 gardeners. you can see the canopy behind me outside the buckingham palace, that is where the royal family stand when the national anthem is played and then they walk down the steps to join their guests because this is where they also host throughout the summer the various garden parties. and they also host the gold duke of edinburgh award winners. nina was asking about the platinumjubilee winners. nina was asking about the platinum jubilee weekend weather, it is mixed, it will be warmer for starters but also sunny intervals with some showers. some of those could be heavy and thundery and slow—moving. on saturday and sunday there is a north—south split, the north will be drier and warmer and the south will see some heavy
8:45 am
showers at times. today what we have is low pressure out towards the east, a weather front scooting southwards through wales and the midlands, is heading south eastwards. their rain is turning more showery. we have also got a few showers this morning, variable cloud, further showers developing through the course of the day but it should dry out across wales and south—west england. temperatures today, we are looking at roughly up today, we are looking at roughly up to the high teams, probably 18 or 19 degrees at best. then as we head through the evening and overnight, the showers will fade and clear skies, patchy mist and fog forming and with the weather front very close to northern ireland, it will be cloudy for you. also it will be chilly ahead, some parts going down to three or [i chilly ahead, some parts going down to three or 1! degrees. tomorrow we start of with patchy mist or fog which will lift quite readily, a fine day for many but we will have some rain moving across northern
8:46 am
ireland and some showers developing across northern england and parts of western scotland. if you are in the sunshine, it will feel pleasant. 22 degrees is quite possible as our maximum temperature, 72 fahrenheit. then moving on to friday, showery aplix of rain across northern ireland, southern scotland, northern england and north wales. we could see some showers in south wales as well, eitherside see some showers in south wales as well, either side of it we are back into sunny skies. in the sunshine it will feel warm, 22 or 23 degrees. along the north sea coastline with an onshore breeze, it will feel cooler. foryou an onshore breeze, it will feel cooler. for you it is more likely to be 1a degrees. so, mixed, and as i mentioned at the start, into saturday and sunday, the north will be drier and warmer, the south will see some showers. mixed but on the whole it will be fabulous, be prepared for it!

is to be the uk's city of culture in 2025. i've been here all my life, so this is like one of the biggest, most positive things that's happened for this city. bradford is not here to define its identity — its identity is already solid — it's just here to show the world just how awesome it is, and that's what's coming. bradford is the city ofjoy. bradford campaigned hard for the honour — a promotional video captured the diversity of the arts and culture scene, and they got the gig. when i say 20, you say 25. 20. 25. it is our place and it it our time. we are bradford, baby, till we die. but the main thing isjust, like, young people being able to see stuff and find out what they like and what they don't like because they're having opportunity to experience it, and i just think that's been such a longtime coming and it's so important for our development as individuals and as a city. host cities hold the culture title for a calendar year. bradford now has two—and—a—half years to get everything ready.
