hello, welcome to bbc news — i'm victoria derbyshire — here are your headlines from the uk and around the world. borisjohnson tells his top team he is drawling a line under questions about his leadership — after winning last night's vote confidence in his leadership. thank you everybody for all your good work yesterday which was a very important day, because we are able to draw a line under the issues that our opponents want to talk about, and we are able to get on with talking about what i think people in this country want us to talk about. but 148 conservative mps voted

against the prime minister in a significant revolt against his leadership. ijust hope that, given the mood of the public, the vote we have had here tonight, that the cabinet will tell the prime minister that, in the words of steve baker, the gig is up. i predict we will have a new leader of the party, a new prime minister, by party conference this year. i'm geeta guru—murthy live in westminster — where we'll be bringing you the latest reaction to the vote. i'm joined by conservative mp still very much backing the prime minister. three police officers in the us state of arizona have been put on leave after they stood by and watched a homeless man drowning. ukraine's president says his forces are holding out against russian advances in key cities in the donbas region. the family of a british geologist jailed for 15 years in iraq for attempting to remove historial artefacts says they are shocked by the punishment saying it amounts to a death sentence.

hello and welcome if you're watching in the uk or around the world. borisjohnson had told his top team that he is drawing a line under questions about his leadership — after winning last night's vote of confidence in his leadership. the prime minister survived, but two in five of his own mps voted to get rid of him. under current rules he is now immune from a conservative leadership challenge for a year. so let's take a look at the result. mrjohnson — who led his party to a landslide victory in the general election two and a half years ago — won 59% of votes. 211 conservative mps voted to support the prime minister. 148 declared no confidence

in their leader. speaking after the vote, borisjohnson said the result was extremely good, convincing and decisive, adding, "what it means is as a government we can move on and focus on the stuff that i think really matters to people." we'll be bringing you the reaction throughout this morning's programme. let's go to geeta who's at college green in westminster for you. this morning's newspapers in the uk have been pretty damning including the conservative backing ones. the language like dead man walking doing the rounds, the defeat was heavier than expected people asking if boris johnson is a lame—duck prime minister, because he has lost about three quarters of the backbench mps in his own party. those who don't work for the government, that are notjunior ministers, that don't work in the cabinet. most of the people sitting behind him at prime minister's questions do not support

him in terms of the backbench foot and that is a very difficult position for any prime minister to be in. at the same time the prime minister had been launching a fight back, and it is difficult to see a mechanism for him to be removed. the rules can be changed so that they could technically be a vote of confidence in the next 12 months, if the 1922 committee decide to change those rules, and also we are seeing some pretty big days ahead in the calendar which will test further public confidence in borisjohnson. the prime minister has in the last few minutes let the cameras in to see his current cabinet, his loyal cabinet as they are at present inside the cabinet room. boris johnson speaking to cameras. let's have a look at what has been found in the few minutes.— in the few minutes. yes. good mornin: in the few minutes. yes. good morning everybody. _

million of the most vulnerable households in the country. why are we able to do this? because we took the right decisions during covid and we came out of that in a very strong economic position, and employment the lowest level since 1974, as i never tire of telling you. we are going to get on with the massive agenda that we were elected to deliver in 2019. it is a huge thing that we embark on, really transformative with infrastructure, skills, and technology levelling up across the country, unleashing the potential of the uk, it is a totally morally, socially, politically the right thing to do. i’m morally, socially, politically the right thing to do.— morally, socially, politically the right thing to do. i'm “oined now by lee anderson h right thing to do. i'm “oined now by lee anderson who _ right thing to do. i'm joined now by lee anderson who was _ right thing to do. i'm joined now by lee anderson who was a _ right thing to do. i'm joined now by lee anderson who was a labour- lee anderson who was a labour councillor and defected to the conservatives. the prime minister is fatally damaged, isn't he? he still

we are going to go now to dominic raab. i do think it's important to listen to those dissenting voices, i think it's important to show that you're listening, but what matters above all else is drive forward, deliver for the country, listen to the country and focus on their issues — from the cost of living, to crime, to the nhs, quality public services and the skills agenda and levelling up the country — and that is what the government is going to be doing. where we are also hearing in print at least from william hague. the former conservative leader william hague says borisjohnson has experienced a "greater level of rejection" than any of his predecessors and should now resign. writing in the times he said, votes have been cast that show a greater level of rejection than any tory leader has ever endured and survived.

deep inside, he should recognise that, and turn his mind to getting out in a way that spares party and country such agonies and uncertainties. i'm joined by our political correspondent, lots of people are asking either cabinets now going to asking either cabinets now going to ask against him? then;n asking either cabinets now going to ask against him?— ask against him? they all came out aainst ask against him? they all came out against him — ask against him? they all came out against him yesterday, _ ask against him? they all came out against him yesterday, pretty i ask against him? they all came outj against him yesterday, pretty much all of them very publicly. we know that was in a coordinated, concerted campaign behind the scenes to push them out there. most of them went out very publicly and nailed their colours to the mast, or i don't think we will see much shift there, but i think what is going to be interesting now is the dynamic going forward, because we have always talked about, you've heard about the party that is decisive about what it does about its leadership. it is the

party that pits the candidate that is going to win. this results risks falling between cells for the conservative party is, because the rebels did much better, the critics of borisjohnson did much better than they thought. it wasn't a knockout blow, nobody expected it to be, but 148 mps is quite winding for borisjohnson. his damage, he is sitting there now, so what we have is the un—decisive result, but he is sitting there talking about by—election results, that was back in may 2021, the hartlepool by—election, before the whole party scandal came to light, so it sort of greatest hits your hearing. hanging over him now is this confidence vote, four in ten of his mps, every

time he goes into prime minister's questions, he will know that four in ten of his mps don't think he is the job, they're talking about the things they can do to push the agenda forward, economic drive housing, is heading into difficult times, the bank of england has said there is a possible reception, possible 10% inflation, and for a prime minister with a divided party thatis prime minister with a divided party that is a difficult place to be. this is one of these constituencies that they call red wall constituencies, ever since just

after the a second world war it is almost had a labour mp except during margaret thatcher's years. this is one of the places that voted for brexit, and i came here in 2019 and they were very keen on the message to get brexit done. we don't know how the mp here voted in last night's vote, because he is a secretary for the 1922 committee and he won't publicly say how he voted, nonetheless key voters in this area. the clock cafe in this area is a well—known landmark in high street, in this article who come in here will be key in the next general election. it was interesting to see what they thought in last nights confidence votes. you what they thought in last nights confidence votes.— what they thought in last nights confidence votes. you really can't have him as _ confidence votes. you really can't have him as a _ confidence votes. you really can't have him as a scape _ confidence votes. you really can't have him as a scape goat, -

minister. bury north is currently a conservative seat but it regularly changes hands. labour lost it at the last general election in 2019. the current mpjames daly has a majority ofjust 105, the conservative party's smallest. this makes it the most marginal seat in the whole country. we will watch it very closely to see what public opinion has been doing, it reflects where voters are very closely. it reflects where voters are very closely. so what do voters there make of the events of the past day? ben boulus has been finding out. bury. with a former prime minister and the very first leader of the conservative party looking on, plenty of people here have an opinion on the fate of the current resident of number10. sack him. what makes you say that? because of the way he's behaved, and he's not very truthful.

knows how to make the right decisions, the right choices. just because the had a lockdown party doesn't change him from being a good prime minister. so yeah, he's got... he's got politics. he knows what he's talking about. he knows what he's doing. so, yeah, that's why i'd keep him as prime minister. he got you through brexit and he seems to have built the economy up quite well, i and you know, you've just got to give him a chance, you know? i mean, he's not probably the best i prime minister in the world, but, i you know, i think he's probably as good as anything _ you've got down there. the birthplace of sir robert peel is represented by two mps who won their seats from labour in the so—called red wall election of 2019. one of them is sitting on the smallest conservative majority in the country, while the other defected to labour at the height of the partygate scandal. i'd get him out. why is that? i would get him out because he promised to level up in red wall areas,

and he clearly hasn't. he promised to protect the nhs. he clearly hasn't. he's a liar and he lied about partygate. the man is not honest. he is not a statesman. i think there's nothing wrong with boris. i think he's all right. it's not every day the result of a vote in westminster is being followed so closely here. the vote in favour of having confidence in borisjohnson as leader was 211 votes and the vote against was 148. cheering. come on, boris! paid off. they've been paid off. i think he's a great chap. i'll stand by him. yeah, same with any of them. you know, if you own up, be honest with everybody, you're fine. - the prime minister may be safe for now, but it's the opinion of voters in towns like bury that will determine forjust how long.

well is borisjohnson the walking wounded this morning or can he regain the trust of his party? with ricoh quarters of his backbenchers now having publicly voted against him, and a number of key names coming out in the conservative party calling for him to go, he is in a very vulnerable position, but the mechanism to try and dislodge the prime minister isn't easy, certainly someone is very happy to cling on right down to the final hour, which borisjohnson has given every indication of doing. there will be a lot of machinations going on, a lot of discussions, a lot of eyes on the cabinet, will they stay loyal, or with future events, these by—elections, will that again because the cabinet to think about how long they support borisjohnson?

three police officers in the us state of arizona have been put on leave after they stood by and watched a homeless man drowning. newly released bodycam footage and transcripts show the man getting into a lake last month and telling police he was "going to drown". 0ne officer responded — i'm not going tojump in after you. cbs reporter alexis dominguez has the latest. 0fficers officers are seen speaking with a woman about her disturbance. 0n officers are seen speaking with a woman about her disturbance. on may 20 people identified the man and he ran away from police. later it was clarified that he was not a suspect and he was not being pursued. footage shows him standing and

looking over the lake. he apologises to the officers. he then begins to climb over the fence. next, he is scenes willing in the lake underneath the pedestrian bridge. 0fficers underneath the pedestrian bridge. officers are heard speaking to each other about what to do. video shows one of the officers leaning over the railings, watching him swim, before walking to pedestrian bridge. the transcript picks up where the video leaves off. he asked, what is your plan right now? according to the transcript, he tells police repeatedly he is going to drown. the officer replies 0k, repeatedly he is going to drown. the officer replies ok, i'm notjumping in after you.

that was alexis dominguez from cbs news reporting. tempe police say they are investigating the death, and are waiting for toxicology results, which could take several weeks. we'll update you on this story when that happens. ukraine's president volodymyr zelensky says fighting has taken to the streets of the front line eastern city of sievierodonetsk. mr zelensky said russia's bombardment of the city as well as neighbouring luhansk had turned them into "dead cities". but he insisted his forces were holding on. a correspondence that it is very difficult to get a picture of what is happening. difficult to get a picture of what is happening-— difficult to get a picture of what isha-eenin. ,, . is happening. indeed the respected anal st is happening. indeed the respected analyst from _ is happening. indeed the respected analyst from the _ is happening. indeed the respected analyst from the study _ is happening. indeed the respected analyst from the study of _ is happening. indeed the respected analyst from the study of war i is happening. indeed the respected analyst from the study of war said l analyst from the study of war said the same thing this evening stop getting a clear picture out of the cities is very hard and we have seen often contradictory information, one moment we are hearing that ukrainians are on the back foot, withdrawing, the next day on the

counteroffensive. i think it is fair to be honest about it and say that it is difficult to get a picture, primarily because all the phone signals are down. i think, generally, the russians have been taking ground, the ukrainian say they can hold the city. another interesting point made yesterday was actually that severodonetsk was not, from a strategic point of view, that important. what really matters is the city of lysychansk, which sits on the side of the river. the river has been a crucial feature on the side of the river. the river has been a crucialfeature in this war. if the ukrainians lose severodonetsk then they still hold onto lysychansk, which is overlooking the river that the russians would have to cross. even if they do fall back they say they have defensive positions there and the geography is on their side. russia's un ambassador has walked out of a security council meeting after the president of the european council blamed

the russian invasion of ukraine for causing a globalfood crisis. the dramatic consequences of russia's war are spilling over across the globe, and this is driving up food prices, pushing people into poverty and destabilising entire regions. and russia is solely responsible for this food crisis, russia alone — despite the kremlin's campaign of lies and disinformation. and it is russian tanks, russian bombs and mines that are preventing ukraine from planting and harvesting. the kremlin is also targeting grain storages and stealing grain in ukraine, while shifting the blame on others. this is cowardly, this is propaganda — pure and simple propaganda. the russian envoy, vassily nebenzia, has accused mr michel of spreading lies.

ukraine's president zelensky says his forces are holding out in the eastern city of severodonetsk despite being outnumbered by russian troops. meanwhile the number of injured ukrainian soldiers continues to rise and the bbc has been told that the country will need significant help to supply prosthetics to all who need them. laura bicker has been to meet some wounded soldiers in dnipro hospital, not too far from the front line. the full ugly force of modern warfare comes with a brutal cost. each blast can take a life, or alter it forever. sergei was hit by a mortar during a mission in mariupol. the surgeons used parts of his thigh to rebuild his lower leg. translation: the chances were slim. the doctors started working on me from the very beginning. the surgery was successful.

they put in a lot of effort. it's a miracle. it's a very complicated operation, and the injury was too hard, i so we are happy and very grateful to the doctors and to _ everybody who supports us. but others are not so lucky. yuri was hit by an air strike. translation: my sergeant ma'or was killed on the spot, i and i did not make it to cover. it's a good thing i managed to warn my brothers in arms, and they had time to get to cover. i wasjust ten metres short, and ended up in the very epicentre of the strike. he's now one of thousands who need a prosthetic limb. translation: if it was up to me, i would stand up now _ and go and fight the war. i really upset that my guys are fighting there and i'm just lying here unable to help. skills learned after the second world war are once again in demand.

this prosthetics factory, built in 1944, isjust hours from yet another front line. they're ready to increase production, but the bbc has been told to ukraine will need more help if it's to supply prosthetics to all its wounded. translation: losing a limb is not a life sentence. i when someone gets admitted into our care and sees that there are others there missing both legs or an arm just like them, they see that life can carry on normally with what modern technologies have to offer. the toll taken by this war is matched by a strong will to overcome its effects, but it will take money and time to ensure this cruel conflict doesn't haunt another generation of fighters. laura bicker, bbc news, dnipro. as qatar prepares to host the world cup this november, a bbc news arabic investigation has uncovered allegations that the gulf

layer of complexity around picking his potential takers at the world cup this year. england play germany in the nations league tonight. the number of fines issued to parents in england for truancy from school is increasing, as the penalties return after the pandemic. they were mostly set aside in recent years because of the disruption of covid. but a bbc investigation found 3.7 million pounds in fines have been given out in the academic year to easter. 0ur education editor branwen jeffreys has this report. you may go a little bit further. i'm going to steal your idea when we talked about the gradient... getting pupils into school every day isn't an exact science. but this school has seen a massive turnaround. once the attendance was among the worst in england. kane and olivia rarely miss school now, but over the last couple of years they hadn't always turned up, as the pandemic created pressures at home. ijust wanted time to myself,

just time away from things that cause stress or that could cause stress. it feels better being back rather thanjust on the street with my mates. i didn't want to see anyone, didn't want to talk. - ijust felt so, like, miserable, and i know i made it worse i staying in the house, - and i'm so glad that i'm not doing that any more, _ because i wouldn't be in the same place i am now. your grades are good after your last paper. praising hard work and better grades is part of it. posh teas for tutor groups that do well. rewards and treats like this tea or trips out are part of a system of incentives here to make sure that good attendance is recognised. although at the end of the line, if parents don't make sure their children come to school, they will be fined. during the pandemic, there was more leeway around attendance, but across england, fixed penalty fines for parents have returned.

130 out of 152 local authorities shared their data with us. in 2018—19, just over 272,000 fines were issued, leading to £14 million being paid by parents. in 2021-22, 71,000 fines were issued by easter, with £3.7 million paid by parents. i think we should visit this one. at this school, there's a team chasing up families, warning poor attendance can lead to fines, but also finding out what's going on and offering support. a lot of work goes on behind the scenes of trying to help parents trust us that we are here to help, we're notjust there to, "why is your child not at school," and to bang on and to fine and send them to court and things like that. there's a lot of factors that we take into consideration first and foremost, and are here to support with.

after the disruption of covid, they're trying to reset, rebuilding the daily habit of school. branwen jeffreys, bbc news, middlesbrough. the family of a retired british geologist have told us they are shocked by his 15 yearjail term in iraq for attempting to carry antiquities out of the country and it's tantamount to a death sentence. jim fitton, who's 66, was arrested at baghdad airport in march, with pottery shards in his luggage. his son—in—law sam tasker told us mr fitton is too old to cope with the prison sentence. just to contextualise that, this is a 66—year—old man who will be in his mid—80s by the time he gets out of prison. he will be in a general population prison in iraq and that is tantamount to a death sentence which we are trying to avoid in the

this morning ..borisjohnson will attempt to draw a line under last night's vote of confidence in his leadership. the prime minister survived despite a significant rebellion by conservative mps. he received 211 votes of support, while148 mps voted for him to go that's 41 per cent of the parliamentary party. former cabinet minister andrea leadsom voted against the pm last night this morning she called for the party to move on is this the beginning of the end of the borisjohnson? i is this the beginning of the end of the boris johnson?— the boris johnson? i think he has won the vote _ the boris johnson? i think he has won the vote comprehensively. l the boris johnson? i think he hasl won the vote comprehensively. to the boris johnson? i think he has i won the vote comprehensively. to see then have your— won the vote comprehensively. to see then have your support _ won the vote comprehensively. to see then have your support, _ won the vote comprehensively. to see then have your support, does - won the vote comprehensively. to see then have your support, does the i then have your support, does the party need to unite behind him? i think today is another day and i think— think today is another day and i think the — think today is another day and i think the prime minister will want to focus— think the prime minister will want to focus on— think the prime minister will want to focus on absolutely the priorities of this country. say he has the right — priorities of this country. say he has the right man _ priorities of this country. say he has the right man to _ priorities of this country. say he has the right man to lead i priorities of this country. say he has the right man to lead the i priorities of this country. say he i has the right man to lead the party into the next election? that has the right man to lead the party into the next election?— into the next election? that set

thanks. the conservative mp tobias ellwood , who chairs the defence select committee , was one of those who voted for mrjohnson to go. he said those who voted against borisjohnson needed to accept he would be staying for the time being we now need to feel included and shaping the party's future, the combat at the last couple of days was far from civil and combat at the last couple of days was farfrom civil and illustrates there is work to be done to unite there is work to be done to unite the party. jacob rees—mogg describing, spinning this as a remain plot his tactic to mislead and deliberately distract it shows a worrying grasp of the concerns. we have 150 colleagues from across the party, all wings of the party about the direction, and vision of the party. we can and must be better at this. tom bower has written a biography of borisjohnson called "boris johnson: the gambler". geeta guru murthy

spoke to him earlier iam not i am not surprised by the extent of the rebellion against boris, but i am not surprised by his refusal to go. he is a man who fights for survival. the whole of this government is now based on the survival of borisjohnson are not so much on the fate of britain. he will refuse to go until his own flame—throwers come in and burn him out. i think it is defiance and the party's misfortune is that they haven't got a realistic alternative. there is no one else who could be the alternative new by minister full stop —— prime minister. iie the alternative new by minister full stop -- prime minister.— stop -- prime minister. he is talking of— stop -- prime minister. he is talking of a — stop -- prime minister. he is talking of a relaunch - stop -- prime minister. he is talking of a relaunch to i stop -- prime minister. he is talking of a relaunch to somej talking of a relaunch to some degree, with fresh policies. is it possible that it is quite difficult to force the prime minister out of office at this point that the parliamentary party will calm down

and that's the tories will be forced to get behind him? i and that's the tories will be forced to get behind him?— and that's the tories will be forced to get behind him? i don't think the -a will to get behind him? i don't think the party will calm _ to get behind him? i don't think the party will calm down _ to get behind him? i don't think the party will calm down and _ to get behind him? i don't think the party will calm down and the i to get behind him? i don't think the i party will calm down and the problem for burros is that he can't change. character is fate and where as i thought when i wrote my biography two years ago, that he would be a very successful mayor of london and he would learn the lessons. he clearly hasn't. i don't think he is a person who actually understands his own faults and weaknesses and doesn't listen to those seriously who try to explain it to him. i think he has had lots of opportunities to change butjust relaunching a policy on housing isn't going to make a difference at all. it's is the courage of the man, he is a fighter and he believes an actual victory. he is a fighter and he believes an actualvictory. he he is a fighter and he believes an actual victory. he cannot imagine his own device, he is also a loner, he doesn't listen to others. he cannot get sufficient numbers to actually dent his self—esteem

against him. he is going to fight on, the only way that the tory party will remove him as after the potentially disastrous by—election contest in two or three weeks�* time. that they tell him he has got to go or change the rules to have another vote if he doesn�*t go. just the same way that they got rid of theresa may. i think the countdown is on i think that they have got to, if they want to they will have to get rid of him byjuly, the end ofjuly so they can have a relaunch with a new leader at the party conference in the end of september. but he is a man who is really so stubborn for his own survival and that has been his own survival and that has been his making throughout his life. he reportedly said he would do it all again when talking about going to a party to thank staff yesterday. even though in the past year said that he

is apologetic for his behaviour over partygate which is one of the key which swung the public against the prime minister. he said that even if he won the vote by one he would continue. you really don�*t think there will be a tipping point when he will see the game is up and he will walk, to preserve his own dignity? i will walk, to preserve his own diuni ? ., �* ~ will walk, to preserve his own diuni ? ~ ,, will walk, to preserve his own diuni ? ~ , dignity? i don't think boris is a man who worries _ dignity? i don't think boris is a man who worries about - dignity? i don't think boris is a - man who worries about preserving his own dignity. i don�*t think he is a man who can actually change. on the other hand, if he is threatened with a change of rules and there will be another vote. a change of rules and there will be anothervote. he a change of rules and there will be another vote. he willjust say bring it on. the question is whether another 30 mps, after the by—election defeats, later this month switch over and say enough is enough. that is the only way, in my view, they would get rid of him. cabinet are all made up of people who are particularly because they

are loyal. similar situation with margaret thatcher won�*t happen, and theresa may tried to fight on, but it was very different. she was repeatedly defeated in parliament. this is one where the opposition of borisjohnson could perhaps boris johnson could perhaps undermine borisjohnson could perhaps undermine them by not supporting him in votes and house of commons. and if the government is defeated he will find it difficult then to carry on. i think the battle is on but to be under no illusion, boris will fight it. his problem is he doesn�*t have that many allies because actually he is a loner. so it�*s going to be quite bloody. patients with long covid are facing a postcode lottery when it comes to getting care, according to the royal college of nursing. the union says treatment varies hugely across the uk, with some services recognising the illness as a physical condition, but others as psychological. thousands of people gathered in northern france yesterday to mark

the 78th anniversary of the d—day landings. the british normandy memorial was opened officially last year but because of covid restrictions veterans could not travel to mark d—day. some did travel to mark the anniversary this year, with remembrance at the heart of the celebrations. john maguire reports from ver—sur—mer. today, the normandy coastline, with its calm sea and cobalt blue sky, belies its history. the chaos and carnage of d—day, a lifetime away. with the beaches they stormed 78 years ago as the backdrop, men who fought here laid wreaths to honour the fallen. it�*s been a long time coming, but the british normandy memorial, officially opened last year under covid restrictions, could at last host veterans for the 6th ofjune anniversary.

seeing it for the first time is ken cooke. it�*s a beautiful place. i didn�*t expect it to be as beautiful as what it is, and it will be a very lasting memorial. ken was just 18 years old when he landed here at ver—sur—mer or gold beach, as it was known — on the first day of battle. i�*ve always thought that the [ads that didn�*t come back are the heroes. we are not the heroes who�*ve survived. the heroes are the lads that�*s still over there. there�*s still a lot of memories. i�*ve tried to get rid of some of them, but some of them will never go away. a fly—past by a spitfire from the battle of britain memorial flight recreated a fraction of the soundscape that would have

assaulted the senses. ken hay was still a teenager when he first landed in normandy, his thoughts summed up in a poem he wrote and read at a remembrance service. lord, keep me safe. i'm just 18, and still a lot of life to live. for many of the veterans visiting graves of mates, now seeing their names immortalized here, means so much to them. we were in signal platoon together with the essex. ken remembers denny circus, who�*d intended to return home and marry his sweetheart. he was talking about, "we'll get married after the war." they were already making their plans. there he is. and i suppose that girl was left hot and dry. he was a really good guy. not because he's dead. he was a really good guy.

the memorial was built to give remembrance a physical form, the names of the 22,410 men and women under british control who died in normandy. among those chiselled into the stone is raymond carr. we found his name, and of course, he�*s under the royal air force there. and then you come down that column, 13, and there you are, "carr r, sergeant, 21." his brother peter is here, along with his granddaughter, to find raymond�*s name. why does it mean so much? 0h, your brother, yeah. yeah, very emotional. yeah, it is. they've done such a brilliantjob. wonderful. in one sense i'm very sad. and on the other, i'm very proud. he's there. yeah.

he was part of it, wasn't he? that's it, really. it gets me a bit. but, there you go. casey will now pick up the baton and carry on the family�*s history. when my dad said, "oh, granddad wants to take you to france for the d—day memorial", it�*s like, "yeah, i�*ll go." i was so happy they wanted me to go with them. despite their age and their dwindling number, the veterans take part in a packed programme of events when they visit the former battlefields. here in normandy, d—day is defined notjust by remembrance, but also by gratitude. the french celebrate their liberation, their freedom, delivered by men and women, all courageous, many terrified, and many who will forever rest

in the land they set free. the latest news is coming at the top of the hour. hello for many of us it is going to be a dry day. as we go through the afternoon we could see one or two showers. the showers will be scattered but if you catch when it might be a touch on the heavy side. the other thing that is going to happen this afternoon is that thick cloud will push on the south—west of england and eventually was his rain. temperatures will be up from where they were yesterday. moving from overnight this band of rain continues to move northwestern eastwards. moving up from also the

south of scotland. behind the band of rain there will be some clear skies and one or two showers. temperature wise we are looking at eight to 15 degrees as our overnight lows. so tomorrow the front bringing all that rain continues to push suddenly north woods but it has got a wraparound front which will bring some rain in and around northern ireland. later in the day and eventually into north—west wales as the main band continues to push steadily northwards across scotland but not reaching the far north of scotland. behind this band of rain we will see showers and some of those will be heavy and thundery, interspersed with some sunshine. breezy too, especially in the south. temperatures 11—21 . moving from wednesday into thursday, we have got a little bit of a ridge of high pressure building in. that quieten things down before the next atlantic front comes our way. so on thursday we we have cloud, sums the skies.

the wind will strengthen along the west we will also seep in rain arrive, nothing particularly heavy with temperatures about 12 to 21 degrees. into friday, this is the steep low pressure, it is pushing north—westwa rd steep low pressure, it is pushing north—westward and we have got the remnants of tropical storm alex embedded into it. we can see from the isobars it is going to be windy, the isobars it is going to be windy, the strongest winds in the north west. the wright beat a physically heavy and the wind isn�*t going to be as strong as we thought this time yesterday. it will still be windy in the north west and the south seen the north west and the south seen the driest conditions. nawal al maghafi reports.

this is bbc news, i�*m rebecca jones. the headlines at 11am. borisjohnson tells his top team he is drawing a line under questions about his leadership — after winning last night�*s vote of confidence. thank you everybody for all your good work yesterday which was a very important day, because we are able to draw a line under the issues that our opponents want to talk about, and we are able to get on with talking about what i think people in this country want us to talk about. ican i can announce that the parliamentary party does have confidence. does have confidence. but 148 conservative mps voted against the prime minister in a significant revolt against his leadership.

ijust think that i just think that given the mood of the public, that the cabinet would go and tell the prime minister that the gig is up. make a prediction, we are going to have a new leader of the conservative party by the party this year. i�*m geeta guru—murthy live in westminster — where we�*ll be bringing you the latest reaction to the vote. three police officers in the us state of arizona have been put on leave after they stood by and watched a homeless man drowning. the family of a british geologist jailed for 15 years in iraq for attempting to remove historial artefacts says they are shocked by the punishment — saying it amounts to a death sentence. and england manager gareth southgate says racist abuse aimed at england players during the euro 2020 penalty shoot—out, is a factor when it comes to choosing who�*ll take spot—kicks.

borisjohnson has told his top team that he is drawing a line under questions about his leadership — after winning last night�*s confidence vote in his leadership. the prime minister survived, but 2 in 5 of his own mps voted to get rid of him. under current rules he is now immune from a conservative leadership challenge for a year. so let�*s take a look at the result. mrjohnson — who led his party to a landslide victory in the general election two and a half years ago — won 59% of votes. 211 conservative mps voted to support the prime minister. 148 declared no confidence in their leader. speaking during a cabinet

meeting this morning, borisjohnson said his government will now �*be able to get on with talking about what the people of this country want to talk about." we�*ll be bringing you the reaction throughout this morning�*s programme. it's it�*s pretty quiet yes today, where we had voices trying to get on the airwaves. we have both sides looking their wounds now, neither will have seen this as a victorious outcome right now. the prime minister is wounded, some think it is a fatal wounded, some think it is a fatal wound that ultimately will topple him. others hope that the prime minister can put this saga behind him, but there are a number of key challenges ahead. the by—elections later this month, the privileges committee report which will come also in the coming months, and of course those rules on whether boris

johnson can face a confidence vote. they can be tweaked by the 1922 committee, that all—powerful backbench committee, to hold another confidence vote in borisjohnson if there was enough pressure from his backbenchers. a lot of pressure from the cabinet, is there any indication that any of them will move? will they worry about being outgunned by jeremy hunt, who is clearly laid a stake in the leadership race given his actions yesterday. they might think therejeremy hunt is a front runner to replace borisjohnson if it comes to that, of course. a big moment for borisjohnson as last night conservative mps voted on whether to back him or sack him as their leader. nobody expected the prime minister to lose, but the result when it came was not the convincing win he needed. the vote in favour of having confidence in borisjohnson as leader was 211 votes,

and the vote against was 148 votes. and therefore i can announce that the parliamentary party does have confidence. cheering. more than 40% of his own members of parliament had voted against him. his supporters cheered the victory, though, and for the prime minister, a win was a win. i think it's a convincing result, a decisive result. and what it means is that as a government, we can move on and focus on the stuff that i think really matters to people. as westminster weighed up what the result might mean, the prime minister�*s supporters rallied round while his critics said they weren�*t done yet. what i think is the best thing now is that the conservative party - respects the ballot result and stays united. - parties will often lose elections because they are disunited. - look at recent history. it's parties that are disunited that end up in opposition. _

ijust hope that given the mood of the public, the vote we've had here tonight, that the cabinet would go and tell the prime minister that in steve baker's words, the gig's up. i'll make a prediction. we're going to have a new prime minister, a new leader of the conservative party, by party conference this year. labour and other opposition parties seized on the vote as evidence of a divided party in government. the conservative party had a decision to make — to show some backbone or to back borisjohnson. they have ignored the british public and hitched themselves and their party firmly to borisjohnson and everything that he represents. boris johnson is now safe from any further votes of confidence for a year under his party�*s rules, but he�*s emerged from this test looking far from secure. jonathan blake, bbc news.

while the prime minister obviously trying to display unity, allowing cameras into a cabinet meeting today. good morning cabinet, thank you very much, very good to see you all. thank you everybody for your good work yesterday which was a very important day, because we are able to draw a line under the issues that our opponents wanted to talk about and we are able to get on with talking about what i think the people of this country want us to talk about. that is what we are going to do, we are going to focus exclusively on that, and we are helping people of course with dealing with the after—shocks of covid, huge sums cushioning the inflationary impact, the rise in energy, £1200 for 8 million of the most vulnerable households in the country. why are we able to do this?

because we took the right decisions during covid and we came out of that in a very strong economic position, and employment the lowest level —— unemployment at the lowest level. since 1974, as i never tire of telling you. we are going to get on with the massive agenda that we were elected to deliver in 2019. it is a huge thing that we embark on, really transformative with infrastructure, skills, and technology levelling up across the country, unleashing the potential of the uk, it is a totally morally, socially, politically the right thing to do. borisjohnson boris johnson obviously with plans afoot for various policies announcements. ultimately the criticism of him goes to his character, questions about honesty, trust and integrity.

the former conservative leader william hague says borisjohnson has experienced a "greater level of rejection" than any of his predecessors and should now resign. deep inside, he should recognise that, and turn his mind to getting out in a way that spares party and country such agonies and uncertainties.�* william hague calling for an honourable exit for borisjohnson, honourable exit for boris johnson, we�*ve spoken to people like george osborne who says the prime minister is determined to stay in power more than most, and the likelihood of him leaving voluntarily, well many of the servers say that is slim. the conservative mp tobias ellwood , who chairs the defence select committee , was one of those who voted for mrjohnson to go. he said those who voted against borisjohnson needed to accept he would be

staying for the time being. for the moment i accept the democratic outcome, i encourage all colleagues to do the same, but two in five of us did not express support for the prime minister. they, we, now need to feel included in shaping the party�*s future. the conduct of the last couple of days was far from civil and illustrates there is work to be done to unite the party. i mean, jacob rees—mogg describing this... you know, spinning this as a remain plot. this tactic to mislead and deliberately distract, it shows a worrying grasp of the concerns of 150 colleagues from across the party, all wings of the party, about the direction, the vision of the party. we can and must do better than this. and we�*ve just got this response from former cabinet minister andrea leadsom who voted against the pm last night is this the beginning of the end of the borisjohnson? i think he has won the vote comprehensively.

does he then have your support, does the party need to unite behind him? i think today is another day and i think the prime minister will want to focus on absolutely the priorities of this country. so he is the right man to lead the party into the next election? that's it thanks. andrea leadsom of courses are fervent brexiteer, coming out saying she was voting against the prime minister. we arejoined now, you tweeted you were in support of the prime minister. first tweeted you were in support of the prime minister.— prime minister. first of all the prime minister. first of all the prime minister _ prime minister. first of all the prime minister has _ prime minister. first of all the prime minister has an - prime minister. first of all the prime minister has an 80 - prime minister. first of all the prime minister has an 80 seatj prime minister has an 80 seat majority, he has a democratic mandate that he needs to fulfil, we need to emphasise that this is not about london and the south—east, people can get on their lives, he

have had the recreation gifts and they get out ofjail gifts of this particular prime minister, so history would predict he will be toast in a few months, but his own particular personality, his fighting spirit and his houdini character will suggest that something else might happen. is it will suggest that something else might happen-— will suggest that something else might happen. is it fighting spirit or is it shamelessness? - might happen. is it fighting spirit or is it shamelessness? they - might happen. is it fighting spirit or is it shamelessness? they are j or is it shamelessness? they are both merely _ or is it shamelessness? they are both merely words _ or is it shamelessness? they are both merely words to _ or is it shamelessness? they are both merely words to describe i or is it shamelessness? they are both merely words to describe a | both merely words to describe a behaviour. what really matters is the behaviour which will be a complete refusal to accept... look, last night the vote could have just been by one vote, and he would be saying the same thing now. this is not a man who with any fibre in his body has ever suggested that he does not have that enormous self belief, andindeed not have that enormous self belief, and indeed that belief that he wants to be prime minister. it has been

there ever since he was a child. when you observe, you have observed so many of them up close in number ten, and the teams around them it is obviously an intense privilege to do thatjob, it is difficult for anybody to walk away from what is undoubtedly the most glorious period in their career and life, and boris johnson has made it clear that he won�*t, and he has made it difficult. it is difficult and the experience of other prime ministers is that life is often quite bleak after number ten, life is often quite bleak after numberten, and he is life is often quite bleak after number ten, and he is going to want to fight and it will be a challenge for him to reinvent himself and try to win over those people who voted

against him, and a lot will hinge on whether there will be a credible successor who emerges like michael heseltine did, although he didn�*t go on and win it. those people who are hanging on to borisjohnson at the moment could transfer their allegiance, i think there isn�*t that alternative, credible alternative, out there. it could be others inside cabinet at the moment to have ambitions. untilthey cabinet at the moment to have ambitions. until they break away, then i think his position is a lot more secure. d0 then i think his position is a lot more secure.— then i think his position is a lot more secure. , ., more secure. do you see any other wa that more secure. do you see any other way that it _ more secure. do you see any other way that it falls. — more secure. do you see any other way that it falls, we _ more secure. do you see any other way that it falls, we obviously - more secure. do you see any other| way that it falls, we obviously know that the cabinet could act, the 1922 committee could change the role and there could be another vote of no confidence. how vulnerable do you�*d think he is in terms of the mechanics of all this, or do you

think there is a strong chance now that he goes through to a general election? i that he goes through to a general election? ., that he goes through to a general election? ~ ., , ., ., election? i think i would put a one in ten chance _ election? i think i would put a one in ten chance of— election? i think i would put a one in ten chance of him _ election? i think i would put a one in ten chance of him going - election? i think i would put a one| in ten chance of him going through election? i think i would put a one i in ten chance of him going through a general election. that is only because of his extraordinary character and his ability to reinvent, because as you pointed out the only two factors that could get rid of him are his cabinet collectively deciding, watch rishi sunak, he is a kingmaker, if he decides that the time is up then it will be toast for borisjohnson. who; will be toast for boris johnson. why do ou will be toast for boris johnson. why do you think — will be toast for boris johnson. why do you think the _ will be toast for boris johnson. why do you think the cabinet hasn't do you think the cabinet hasn�*t acted yet? do you think the cabinet hasn't acted yet?— do you think the cabinet hasn't acted et? , ., _ �* acted yet? obviously he hasn't acted yet, but it would just _ acted yet? obviously he hasn't acted yet, but it would just take _ yet, but it would just take the chancellor, not i think a foreign secretary, but the chancellor, i think the future of boris johnson think the future of borisjohnson lies think the future of boris johnson lies with think the future of borisjohnson

lies with rishi sunak and if not him himself then a coalition of one or two other critical people in cabinet. forthem two other critical people in cabinet. for them to resign, and say look, they have had enough, that is the first wave that will spell the end of his premiership. the second is a real change which is entirely within the rules. the rules can be changed. the 1922 committee can have another vote before the year is up, and that will happen if graham brady, the head of the unite team 22 committee —— 1922 committee are ready to jettison him with. they are not ready without a clear successor,

but that reason could come. the third reason why he would go is that he would give up the ghost himself, but that is simply not going to happen. but that is simply not going to ha en. but that is simply not going to hauen. , happen. phil mackie has been taking the temperature of some of the voters in birmingham. this is one of these constituencies that they call red wall constituencies, ever since just after the a second world war it is almost had a labour mp except during margaret thatcher�*s years. this is one of the places that voted for brexit, and i came here in 2019 and they were very keen on the message to get brexit done. we don�*t know how the mp here voted in last night�*s vote, because he is a secretary for the 1922 committee and he won�*t publicly say how he voted, nonetheless key voters in this area.

the clock cafe in this area is a well—known landmark in high street, in this article who come in here will be key in the next general election. it was interesting to see what they thought in last night�*s confidence votes. you really can�*t have him as a scape goat, because he can�*t do much can he? i think there is a bigger risk with boris still in charge, and clearly 140 plus of his own mps are fearful for the next election as to whether he can help them keep their seats. i believe, i'll be surprised if he is around in the next six to 12 months. that is more or less what we�*ve been hearing from many of these key election targets in the country,

kind of a split between those people who don�*t think there is a need for change and those they will win seats like this in birmingham, those only a small majority, there has never been a big majority even when labour held on. what happens here and in seats like it across the west midlands over the next few months may determine what happens to boris johnson�*s future as prime minister. iam being i am being told that in ukraine president zelensky is very happy about borisjohnson still being uk prime minister, so one vote of support for the prime minister there. he did when that vote and as we say it is not simple to remove the prime minister, and the prime minister says he is focused now on unveiling new policy to try to steer

government back on track. he�*s going to be under a lot of scrutiny, a lot of pressure of course in the next few weeks. by—elections coming up over the course of the next few weeks. now it�*s time for a look at the weather with carol kirkwood. hello again. for many of us today, we�*re looking at variable amounts of cloud, some sunny spells and a few showers. through the afternoon, the showers will be well scattered, many of us missing them all together. and the cloud is going to build in the south—west ahead of a band of rain coming our way later. temperatures for some southern parts of england and wales will be a good four to six degrees higher than they were yesterday. but our top temperature�*s likely to be about 22. through this evening and overnight, there goes our band of cloud and rain moving steadily northwards, low cloud across eastern and southern scotland. clear skies follow on behind

the rain with one or two showers. and these are our overnight lows. tomorrow the rain quite smartly moves out of england, wales and northern ireland and into scotland. but follow that curve round and you can see it comes back into northern ireland and north—west wales later in the day. now, for the rest of england and wales, looking at a mixture of sunshine and showers, some of which could be heavy and thundery.

hello this is bbc news with me, rebecca jones. the headlines. borisjohnson tells his top team he is drawing a line under questions about his leadership after winning last night�*s vote of confidence. thank you everybody for all your good work yesterday which was a very important day, because we are able to draw a line under the issues that our opponents want to talk about, and we are able to get on with talking about what i think people in this country want us to talk about.

ican i can announce that the parliamentary party does have consonants. —— confidence. but 148 conservative mps voted against the prime minister in a significant revolt against his leadership. i make imakea i make a prediction that we are going to have a prime minister, a new leader of the conservative party by the party conference this year. three police officers in the us state of arizona have been put on leave after they stood by and watched a homeless man drowning. the family of a british geologist jailed for 15 years in iraq for attempting to remove historial artefacts says they are shocked by the punishment — saying it amounts to a death sentence. and england manager gareth southgate says racist abuse aimed at england players during the euro 2020 penalty shoot—out, is a factor when it comes to choosing who�*ll take spot—kicks.

before we cross to austin at the sports and ijust before we cross to austin at the sports and i just want to bring before we cross to austin at the sports and ijust want to bring you some breaking news here at the bbc. more than 10,000 migrants have now reached the uk by boat, that is so far this year. a group of 79 people were brought to shore this morning at dover by the border force. this year�*s total, as i say, more than 10,000, is more than double the figure for the equivalent period in 2021. that was 4495. this news into us from our reporter from 2021. that was 4495. this news into us from our reporterfrom bbc 2021. that was 4495. this news into us from our reporter from bbc south east but the headline there, more than 10,000 migrants have reached the uk by boat this year. more than double the equivalent for the this

time last year. more on that through the course of the morning no doubt. now here�*s our stint with the sport. hi, good morning... we�*re going to start with tennis because emma raducanu is back where it all began this morning. she�*s in action at the nottingham open, where she lost in the first round last year. but that proved to be an unlikely spingboard for that remarkable break—out year, which saw her reach the fourth round at wimbledon followed by winning the us open. interestingly her match against viktorija golubic is her first on grass since retiring injured at the all england club last year. and ahead of the summer she�*s hinted that she could even link up with another familair face in doubles... andy murray. is that going to happen? well, we haven�*t actually spoken about it. it�*s something that we both, i feel, want to do. i don�*t know if this year is going to be the year. but, hopefully, it will definitely happen at some point. yeah. soon? soonish.

well, emma raducanu will no doubt be the headline draw when glasgow hosts the billiejean king cup in november. great britain looked like they might miss out on the finals but after being named as hosts, they will qualify automatically. so they�*ll now play in the 12—team event labelled the women�*s world cup of tennis, alongside the likes of australia, canada, poland and the usa. we canada, poland and the usa. have got some fantar models we have got some fantastic role models in british tennis and emma led the way in april, led the team really successfully. the result didn�*t come away but it was a new experience for her with the team and again we are bringing a group of individuals into a team environment. it is an environment i know the players will thrive in and will enjoy to be part of. a huge amount of buzz and excitement to bring her to the uk. as rebecca mentioned in the headlines the risk of racial

abuse will be a factor in deciding who takes penalties for england. admitting he feared he created the situation which saw several black english players racially abused after last year�*s euro 2020 final. bukayo saka, marcus rashford and jadon sancho all faced abuse, after missing spot—kicks in england�*s defeat to italy. southgate said there�*s now another layer of complexity around picking his potental takers at the world cup this year. england play germany in the nations league tonight.. you have to respect what they�*ve been as a country, and what they are at a country, in footballing terms. that mentality is what we are trying to create. we�*ve got to keep trying to get to the latter stages of competitions, and games like tomorrow are brilliant for us. that�*s exactly the sort of test we need. mohamed salah rejected a request by liverpool to have a pre—match scan on an undisclosed injury, before he played for egypt on sunday. salah was captain as his side beat guinea 1—0 in their africa cup

of nations qualifier in cairo. now the egypt manager ehab galal said salah played through an injury and that an x—ray would take place after the game. of course, salah�*s club future is still uncertain... he�*s still yet to sign a new contract with liverpool, despite his current deal ending injune 2023. in the last few minutes, the former world number one is announcing that he is resigning from the pga tour which means he is ineligible to play in the ryder cup as he was set to take place in the round this time last week. he said he had committed to commit, the six time winner hasn�*t played since his controversial comments about the series and the pga tour, the opening tour at the centurion club begins on thursday and reports suggest that nicholson has signed a $200 million

deal to feature in this breakaway league. there will be lots more on that story as it develops on bbc sport website. but rebecca that is all the sports for now. the mother of music entrepreneur and youtube starjamal edwards has said his death was �*caused by taking recreational drugs�*. the 31—year—old died at his home in west london in february. our entertainment correspondent, colin paterson has the details. colin, it was a highly lengthy statement on social media, what did it say? statement on social media, what did it sa ? ~ , ., ., statement on social media, what did itsa? . it say? when jamal died there was a hue it say? when jamal died there was a huge outpouring _ it say? when jamal died there was a huge outpouring of _ it say? when jamal died there was a huge outpouring of support, - it say? when jamal died there was a huge outpouring of support, idris i huge outpouring of support, idris elba, the actor. because this was a guy who had done so much for so many other careers. today an inquest into his death opened and adjourned and from the moment the inquest into his death adjourned his mother brenda

released a statement. as we say, it was a long and lengthy statement. in it she said she was shocked and still coming to terms to process with what she had learned about her son�*s death. and that was that he had taken recreational drugs before having cardiac arrhythmia. when she had spoken in the past about the debt she said she was with him she was holding his hand at the time. this morning we have learned more about this, she has said, just how much she is shocked by it. how she wants to start a conversation surrounding the use of recreational drugs and how it only takes one bad reaction for there to be an outcome like this. ., , ., reaction for there to be an outcome like this. ., i. ., . reaction for there to be an outcome like this. ., , ., ., . ., like this. colin, you touched on this at the _ like this. colin, you touched on this at the beginning _ like this. colin, you touched on this at the beginning but - like this. colin, you touched on this at the beginning but i - like this. colin, you touched on this at the beginning but i do i like this. colin, you touched on . this at the beginning but i do think it was worth you reminding us on the huge influence he had on the british in the street and unwrap in particular. in the street and unwrap in particular-— in the street and unwrap in articular. . ., ~ , ., particular. there are all kinds of names, particular. there are all kinds of names. davey — particular. there are all kinds of names, davey went _ particular. there are all kinds of names, davey went on - particular. there are all kinds of names, davey went on to - particular. there are all kinds of names, davey went on to win i particular. there are all kinds of. names, davey went on to win the mercury prize that he owed so much of his career to him. jamal is

someone who set up his own youtube channel when he gave tax expert share when mainstream channels worked. he went on to get an mbe for his services. he went to be an ambassadorfor the his services. he went to be an ambassador for the prince�*s trust. but i think that�*s why there were so much shock surrounding his death backin much shock surrounding his death back in february. this morning, again, such a reaction we have had. brenda edwards is famous in her own right. she is about to go on tour with chicago the musical. a number of panellists of loose women have come out to express their support for her and say this does not change their opinion ofjamal, someone who has done so much good for so many others and was so selfless. such a sorry news this morning and brenda arejust sorry news this morning and brenda are just saying how much as a mother, she does not want any other mother, she does not want any other mother to go through what she has gone through. mother to go through what she has gone through-—

three police officers in the us state of arizona have been put on leave after they stood by and watched a homeless man drowning. newly released bodycam footage and transcripts show the man getting into a lake last month, and telling police he was "going to drown". one officer responded — i�*m not going tojump in after you. cbs reporter alexis dominguez has the latest. in this body can police are seen talking to sean bickings. on may 28 police reported the man now identified as sean pickings, ran from police to avoid arrest. police later confirmed that he was not a suspect and not being pursued. body cam show may leaning towards the railing. then the footage shows sean

bickings apologised to officers and then climbing the fence. next, sean bickings is seen swimming in the lake underneath a pedestrian bridge, officers are heard speaking to each other about what to do. videos show one of the offices leaning the railings watching sean bickings swim before walking to the pedestrian bridge. the transcript picked up by the video leaves off. the officer asks pickings the video leaves off. the officer asks picking— asks pickings what is your plan ri . ht asks pickings what is your plan right now? _ asks pickings what is your plan right now? the _ asks pickings what is your plan right now? the transcript - asks pickings what is your plan | right now? the transcript shows asks pickings what is your plan - right now? the transcript shows sean bickings repeatedly saying to police officers that he is going to drown. the officer replies ok i am not jumping on after you. the average cost of a litre of unleaded petrol has risen again

to 178.5p per litre — a rise of 0.6p in 24 hours. yesterday, the rac said that the price of petrol surged by nearly 5p a litre in the week that included the bank holiday break and could soon hit £1.80 a litre. oil prices remain high due to the war in ukraine and sanctions to reduce europe�*s dependence on russia. the number of fines issued to parents in england for truancy from school is increasing, as the penalties return after the pandemic. they were mostly set aside in recent years because of the disruption of covid. but a bbc investigation found £3.7 million in fines have been given out in the academic year to easter. our education editor branwenjeffreys has this report. you may go a little bit further. i�*m going to steal your idea when we talked about the gradient...

getting pupils into school every day isn�*t an exact science. but this school has seen a massive turnaround. once the attendance was among the worst in england. kane and olivia rarely miss school now, but over the last couple of years they hadn�*t always turned up, as the pandemic created pressures at home. ijust wanted time to myself, just time away from things that cause stress or that could cause stress. it feels better being back rather thanjust on the street with my mates. i didn't want to see anyone, didn't want to talk. - ijust felt so, like, miserable, and i know i made it worse i staying in the house, - and i'm so glad that i'm not doing that any more, _ because i wouldn't be in the same place i am now. your grades are good after your last paper. praising hard work and better grades is part of it. posh teas for tutor groups that do well. rewards and treats like this tea or trips out are part of a system of incentives here to make sure that good attendance is recognised. although at the end of the line, if parents don�*t make

sure their children come to school, they will be fined. during the pandemic, there was more leeway around attendance, but across england, fixed penalty fines for parents have returned. 130 out of 152 local authorities shared their data with us. in 2018—19, just over 272,000 fines were issued, leading to £14 million being paid by parents. in 2021-22, 71,000 fines were issued by easter, with £3.7 million paid by parents. i think we should visit this one. at this school, there�*s a team chasing up families, warning poor attendance can lead to fines, but also finding out what�*s going on and offering support. a lot of work goes on behind the scenes of trying to help parents

trust us that we are here to help, we�*re notjust there to, "why is your child not at school," and to bang on and to fine and send them to court and things like that. there�*s a lot of factors that we take into consideration first and foremost, and are here to support with. after the disruption of covid, they�*re trying to reset, rebuilding the daily habit of school. branwen jeffreys, bbc news, middlesbrough. police are searching for a britishjournalist and a leading indigenous specialist, who have gone missing in a remote part of the amazon rainforest. dom phillips, a regular contributor to the guardian newspaper, was travelling in brazil, near the border with columbia and peru, when he disappeared on sunday.

the family of a retired british geologist have told us they are shocked by his 15 yr year jail term in iraq for attempting to carry antiquities out of the country and it�*s tantamount to a death sentence. jim fitton, who�*s 66, was arrested at baghdad airport in march, with pottery shards in his luggage. his son—in—law sam tasker told my colleague victoria derbyshire that mr fitton is too old to cope with the prison sentence. just to contextualise that, this is a 66—year—old man who will be in his mid—80s by the time he gets out of prison. he will be in a general population prison in iraq and that is tantamount to a death sentence which we are trying to avoid in the first place. tell us what your father—in—law was doing in iraq. jim is a retired archaeologist, he regularly goes away on tours of various countries and the sites of historical interest across south america and south—east asia and middle east. this iraq trip was the latest

in a number of trips he has taken over the last few years with organised groups and experienced tour guides. the iraqi tourist and a former police officer. if this can happen tojim, this could happen to anyone. he is a very well travelled and experienced man who knows what he�*s doing, he is a victim of circumstances. do you know what was in his luggage, what he put in his luggage and why? jim will regularly buy souvenirs to take home or pick up little stones as souvenirs from his various trips. the items in his luggage were shards of broken pottery and broken stone from a site, a desert location. so just pieces of rock and broken

pottery, off the floor in the middle of the desert. no guards, no fences, no signage of any kind warning against removing anything. just debris from the ground. what is the family�*s plan? we have launched an appeal, we are still urging the british government to support us, we are continuing to run our petition with change org. we have a lot of signatures now, it is huge support. but we need all of the support, political support for the appeal. because otherwise this is going to happen, and as far as we can see so far the foreign office are effectively washing their hands on any capabilities to support. the foreign office has previously said they cannot interfere

with the judicial process of another country. what you want them to do? we would like the foreign office to publicly back the appeal and they have been supposedly having conversations in the background as they have mentioned, providing consular support. this, to anyone, this is an unjust verdict. as i mentioned, thejudge himself accepted thatjim didn�*t even know what he was doing was a crime and yet has found him guilty of supposedly criminal culpability of what he was doing. we thinkjim is being made an example of, the political situation in iraq. which all contributse to an unfairverdict as far as we can see. so we are desperate for support from the foreign office for this appeal. i don�*t know when you or other members from the family last spoke to mr fitton, but how is he? he is as shocked as we are, we spoke to him over the phone for the first time

in 95 days, yesterday, after the verdict, for about five minutes. he is just shell—shocked. he is talking through the practicalities of making sure that there is money to support his wife and the family in malaysia once he is potentially incarcerated and just practical considerations of, 15 years away from his family. i think he is trying to save us from the worst of it. that was sam tasker talking to victoria. he is the son—in—law of jim fitton. let�*s return now to westminster and my colleague geeta guru—murthy iamjoined by i am joined by philip davis. tell us how you voted last night.- i am joined by philip davis. tell us

will be a good 46 higher than yesterday. through this evening and into night there goes our cloud abandon rain moving steadily northwards. low cloud across eastern and southern scotland. clear skies follow on behind the rain with one or two showers and these are overnight lows. tomorrow then the rain quite smartly moves out of england, wales and northern ireland and into scotland that follow that curve around and you can see it comes back into northern ireland and north waits to wales later in the day. forthe north waits to wales later in the day. for the rest of england and wales, looking at a mixture of sunshine and showers, some of which could be heavy and thundery.

this is bbc news, i'm rebecca jones. the headlines. borisjohnson tells his top team he is drawing a line under questions about his leadership — after winning last night's vote of confidence. thank you everybody for all your good work yesterday which was a very important day, because we are able to draw a line under the issues that our opponents want to talk about, and we are able to get on with talking about what i think people in this country want us to talk about. i can announce that the parliamentary party does have confidence. but 148 conservative mps voted against the prime minister — in a significant revolt against his leadership. ijust hope that given the mood of the public, the vote we've had here tonight, that the cabinet would go and tell

the prime minister that in steve baker's words, the gig's up. i'll make a prediction. we're going to have a new prime minister, a new leader of the conservative party, by party conference this year. i'm geeta guru—murthy live in westminster — where we'll be bringing you the latest reaction to the vote. motoring groups call for government intervention to ease rising fuel prices — as the rac says it now costs £98 to fill the average car with petrol. the mother of music entrepreneur and youtube star jamal edwards has said his death was caused by taking recreational drugs. three police officers in the us state of arizona have been put on leave after they stood by and watched a homeless man drown.

borisjohnson has told his top team that he is drawing a line under questions about his leadership — after winning last night's confidence vote in his leadership. the prime minister survived, but 2 in 5 of his own mps voted to get rid of him. under current rules he is now immune from a conservative leadership challenge for a year. so let's take a look at the result. mrjohnson — who led his party to a landslide victory in the general election two and a half years ago — won 59% of votes. 211 conservative mps voted to support the prime minister. 148 declared no confidence in their leader. speaking during a cabinet meeting this morning, borisjohnson said his government will now 'be able to get on with talking about what the people of this country want to talk about." we'll be bringing you

the reaction throughout this morning's programme. let's go to geeta who's at college green in westminster for you yes we are speaking to as many mps that would like to talk to us, anyone in westminster that wants to make their voice heard they are welcome to meet us here on college green. it has been very interesting to see that quite a few people have gone quiet, perhaps trying to work out the light of the land, who voted in which direction. it is clear that the prime minister is safe now, he has one victory and his supporters said that even if he had won by one vote he would be safe. 0f said that even if he had won by one vote he would be safe. of course, he is not going to have an easy time in the coming days and weeks, there are

by—elections ahead later this month, many are worried that they will lose, the conservatives will lose, at least one of those seats. the mechanism to dislodge a prime minister is not easy to see in the coming months. the cabinet could move against him but we are not seeing any signs of that at the moment. junior ministers could move against him but we are also not seeing any sign of that at the moment. the 1922 committee can change the rules to bring about another vote of no confidence, there are a couple of days where they might looking that again after the by—elections, or after the privilege committee reports later in the air, but again it is not clear that the conservatives will move in that direction with a lack of one clear person to replace the prime minister. for now, it seems the prime minister is safe at least in the immediate few hours after that vote.

a big moment for borisjohnson as last night conservative mps voted on whether to back him or sack him as their leader. nobody expected the prime minister to lose, but the result when it came was not the convincing win he needed. the vote in favour of having confidence in borisjohnson as leader was 211 votes, and the vote against was 148 votes. and therefore i can announce that the parliamentary party does have confidence. cheering. more than 40% of his own members of parliament had voted against him. his supporters cheered the victory, though, and for the prime minister, a win was a win. i think it's a convincing result, a decisive result. and what it means is that as a government, we can move on and focus on the stuff that i think really matters to people. as westminster weighed up what the result might mean, the prime minister's supporters

rallied round while his critics said they weren't done yet. what i think is the best thing now is that the conservative party - respects the ballot result and stays united. - parties will often lose elections because they are disunited. - look at recent history. it's parties that are disunited that end up in opposition. _ ijust hope that given the mood of the public, the vote we've had here tonight, that the cabinet would go and tell the prime minister that in steve baker's words, the gig's up. i'll make a prediction. we're going to have a new prime minister, a new leader of the conservative party, by party conference this year. labour and other opposition parties seized on the vote as evidence of a divided party in government. the conservative party had a decision to make — to show some backbone or to back borisjohnson. they have ignored the british public and hitched themselves and their party firmly to borisjohnson and everything that he represents.

boris johnson is now safe from any further votes of confidence for a year under his party's rules, but he's emerged from this test looking far from secure. jonathan blake, bbc news. the pm has been holding his first cabinet meeting after that vote, and cameras were allowed in which is quite unusual. let's listen in. good morning, cabinet, thank you very much, very good to see you all. thank you, by the way, everybody, for all your good work yesterday because...which was a very important day, because we are able now to draw a line under the issues that our opponents want to talk about and we are able to get on with talking about what i think the people of this country want us to talk about, which is what we are doing to help them and to take the country forward. and that is what we are going to do, we are going to focus exclusively on that, and we are helping people, of course, number one, with dealing with the after—shocks

of covid, huge sums that we're putting in to help cushion the inflationary impact, the rise in energy prices — i think a total of £37 billion we've already put in. £1,200 for 8 million of the most vulnerable households in the country. why are we able to do this? because we took the right decisions during covid and we came out of that, of the pandemic, in a very strong economic position — unemployment at the lowest level since 1974, something i never tire of telling you. we are going to get on with the massive agenda that we were elected to deliver in 2019. it is a huge, huge thing that we are all embarked on, really transformative — infrastructure, skills, and technology, uniting and levelling up across the country, unleashing the potential of the whole of the uk. it is a totally morally, socially, economically, politically the right thing to do.

let's cross to central lobby now and our political correspondent, nick eardley, is there. nick what is the sense that you're getting from mps and others that you are speaking to? tori; getting from mps and others that you are speaking to?— are speaking to? tory mps are pretty ulum this are speaking to? tory mps are pretty glum this morning, _ are speaking to? tory mps are pretty glum this morning, there _ are speaking to? tory mps are pretty glum this morning, there are - are speaking to? tory mps are pretty glum this morning, there are not - glum this morning, there are not many who think that result is as decisive as the prime minister claimed. there are many who claim that the fact that 140 mp5 said they have no confidence in the prime minister means that this is just going to ramble on. i think the rebels, the ones who are trying to bring the prime minister down, are going to keep trying over the next few weeks and months. i spoke to one senior rebel this morning who said they only think they have to persuade another 30 people to change their mind. 30 people who backed the prime minister last night that they should not back in future, and then the pm is finished. they are looking towards things like the by—elections

on ofjune, both of which are things the conservatives are pretty pessimistic about. if they lose them, that will be evidence that the prime minister has become an electoral liability and it will be more fodder at the rebels will use to argue he should be brought down. we also must remember that partygate isn't over, the privileges committee will take a few months to look into what happened and whether the prime minister misled parliament, but that could be another preacher point. particularly if they call more witnesses or they come up with some more damning evidence will stop the prime minister won last night, he is in theory save for the next few months, but in practice there is a lot of pressure on him and there is going to be some really significant political pitfalls which could mean that pressure goes up rather than down, and makes the prime minister's position more rather than less precarious.

position more rather than less precariou— position more rather than less recarious. ~ . . , precarious. what are the ways in which iioris _ precarious. what are the ways in which boris johnson _ precarious. what are the ways in which boris johnson can - precarious. what are the ways in which boris johnson can be - precarious. what are the ways in l which boris johnson can be forced which borisjohnson can be forced out, because the rules can be changed to have another confidence vote, but the rebels and the government presumably are trying to convince people to stick with their side. do we know, for example, what is the government offering? policy ideas, to try and stay loyal to us? one of the interesting things about the rebellion if you want, that is the rebellion if you want, that is the different wings of the party. talking to different groups this morning there are different demands. some want the prime minister to be more conservative as they put it, thatis more conservative as they put it, that is shorthand for, basically, cutting taxes. that is something that the prime minister offered to his backbenchers yesterday to try and win them over. in the centre of the party, the one nation group, some are saying the prime minister

needs to get back to the business of governing, to cut what one called the culture war nonsense, and talk about more important issues like the cost of living. borisjohnson is going to feel pressure from different parts of his party to change in different ways, butjust on that process question, yes the i922 on that process question, yes the 1922 committee will say that the prime minister is now safe from another confidence vote for another 12 months, but there are many around here that think there will be a lot of pressure if things get worse for the government for those rules to change, i don't think it will happen, speaking to sources on the committee this morning they say there needs to be a period of calm, they don't think that is going to change any time soon, but when theresa may was prime minister in 1922 committee did come pretty close to changing the rules. i think if there is enough pressure on the prime minister, if there is a sign that the majority of mps have turned

against him, that question will come up against him, that question will come up again, absolutely. semi; against him, that question will come up again, absolutely.— up again, absolutely. any sign of the cabinet _ up again, absolutely. any sign of the cabinet not _ up again, absolutely. any sign of the cabinet not being _ up again, absolutely. any sign of the cabinet not being a - up again, absolutely. any sign of the cabinet not being a loyal? i up again, absolutely. any sign of| the cabinet not being a loyal? we hear about ambitions of some ministers but they have stayed true to the prime minister until now. fiat to the prime minister until now. git the moment, certainly in public, the cabinet is onside. i think it is slightly more complicated when you get tojunior slightly more complicated when you get to junior ministerial roles, there are a lot ofjunior ministers who are really angry, really uncomfortable. i spoke to one this morning who told me simply that things need to change, starting with the prime minister. cabinet at the moment remains loyal, big questions of how long that will last, elsewhere in government a lot of monies. —— a lot of honeys. —— a lot

he said those who voted against borisjohnson needed to accept he would be staying for the time being for the moment i accept the democratic outcome, i encourage all colleagues to do the same, but two in five of us did not express support for the prime minister. they, we, now need to feel included in shaping the party's future. the conduct of the last couple of days was far from civil and illustrates there is work to be done to unite the party. i mean, jacob rees—mogg describing this... you know, spinning this as a remain plot. this tactic to mislead and deliberately distract, it shows a worrying grasp of the concerns of 150 colleagues from across the party, all wings of the party, about the direction, the vision of the party. we can and must do better than this. and we've just got this response from former cabinet minister

andrea leadsom who voted against the pm last night. morning. can he ask, is this the beginning of the end for borisjohnson? i think he has won the vote comprehensively and we are just getting on with business. does he then have your support, does the party need to unite behind him? the party gave its views yesterday and today is another day, we move on. i know the prime minister will want to focus on absolutely the priorities of this country. so he is the right man to lead the party into the next election? that's it, thanks. i'm joined now by david gauke, former conservative mp you have been very critical of the prime minister but he has survived

this, do support him now? this prime minister but he has survived this, do support him now?- prime minister but he has survived this, do support him now? this is a worst result — this, do support him now? this is a worst result for _ this, do support him now? this is a worst result for him _ this, do support him now? this is a worst result for him than _ this, do support him now? this is a worst result for him than his - worst result for him than his predecessors who have faced no confidence votes. some of those have left office shortly after. this is damaging for his position, and i do think there continues to be very significant questions about whether he is the right person to lead the country, and i don't think those have been resolved. the conservative party, by not removing him yesterday, have gotten themselves into a mess. i think he is on borrowed time. that is a very substantial number, 41% of the parliamentary party voting against the sitting prime minister in a no—confidence vote. he is vulnerable

in the event that there is more bad news, for example the privilege committee finds against him, and concludes that he has misled parliament, he is in a difficult position. that parliament, he is in a difficult osition. �* ., position. at the end of the day, enou:h position. at the end of the day, enough conservative _ position. at the end of the day, enough conservative mps - position. at the end of the day, i enough conservative mps decided position. at the end of the day, - enough conservative mps decided to back him, it is not easy or straightforward to force a prime minister out of office, how do you think, in practical terms, minister out of office, how do you think, in practicalterms, it minister out of office, how do you think, in practical terms, it could happen? think, in practicalterms, it could ha en? ., . ., think, in practicalterms, it could ha en? ., ., ., , happen? you are right to say it is not straightforward, _ happen? you are right to say it is not straightforward, i _ happen? you are right to say it is not straightforward, i don't - happen? you are right to say it is not straightforward, i don't think| not straightforward, i don't think it is correct to say that he has definitely got 12 month's grace because that is the what the 1922 committee say, those rules were very nearly changed with theresa may in 2019, and they could be changed again, ithink 2019, and they could be changed again, i think the government will have a very bumpy time with by—elections on the 23rd ofjune, and the cost of living crisis. i think the big issue will be that privilege committee report, and if

he is found to have misled parliament by a cross—party committee then i think either the cabinet will act or the 1922 committee will change the rules and there will be a vote again. i really don't believe that even this conservative party could tolerate someone as leader who has been found to have misled the house of commons. it is a very high bar, isn't it, the privilege committee to find against him, if it doesn't, should the conservative party swing, are these attacks simply helping labour opposition? attacks simply helping labour opposition?— attacks simply helping labour o- osition? ., , . . opposition? notwithstanding what ha--ened opposition? notwithstanding what ha - ened in opposition? notwithstanding what happened in 2019 _ opposition? notwithstanding what happened in 2019 the _ opposition? notwithstanding what | happened in 2019 the conservative party have to ask themselves, when they were asking about getting brexit done up againstjeremy

corbyn, whether they have higher questions about whether or not he has standards of integrity, if you're going to look at it on a pure transactional basis, is he going to win votes? look at what the polling showing, look what is happening in by—elections, and the evidences increasingly clear that the british public have lost confidence in boris johnson, and i think a majority of mps will as well. i'm joined now by sebastian payne, whitehall editor of the financial times. what are you hearing from conservatives today? business as normal from _ conservatives today? business as normal from downing _ conservatives today? business as normal from downing street. - conservatives today? business as normal from downing street. he | conservatives today? business as. normalfrom downing street. he is focusing on domestic priorities, housing on thursday followed by domestic speech next week. prime minister called it a good, decisive win, the votes against the prime

minister will not see it that way, and i think they will be trying to work out what to do next. under the rules, in theory borisjohnson cannot be challenged again for the next 12 months, but i think if there was enough of an up swell of opinion, those rules could change quite quickly. i think they will be thinking about how they can make life difficult for boris johnson. there life difficult for borisjohnson. there are life difficult for boris johnson. there are people within life difficult for borisjohnson. there are people within government who are pretty unhappy with boris johnson, and the question is, do they hang on, do they keep quiet, or does mrjohnson trying to reshuffle particularly atjunior ministerial particularly at junior ministerial levels, particularly atjunior ministerial levels, to put more of his supporters in and punish those who have not been loyal? shire supporters in and punish those who have not been loyal?— have not been loyal? are any of those names — have not been loyal? are any of those names public— have not been loyal? are any of those names public yet? - have not been loyal? are any of those names public yet? some | have not been loyal? are any of- those names public yet? some voted

to knighthoods, all sorts of things a prime minister can put forward. we will see in all sorts of the coming months what happened. at the top end of the worst expectations are high ministers, at the worst expectations of yesterday they were talking about 100, then 150, and they nearly scored that. so there's obviously a difficult situation for the government right now. you have to look at boris johnson's government right now. you have to look at borisjohnson's cabinet, they all came out very quickly and treated support in the pm, so i think at the moment they are not going to rebel. some have come out and said the cabinet should act and there is going to be a war of

attrition from rebels towards boris johnson, and there's an argument that the cabinet should stand up, say leave on your own terms, don't be dragged out of office, but for me there is no chance of them doing that. it there is no chance of them doing that. . there is no chance of them doing that. , . ., ., ., ., that. if there is another vote of no confidence — that. if there is another vote of no confidence in _ that. if there is another vote of no confidence in the _ that. if there is another vote of no confidence in the coming - that. if there is another vote of no confidence in the coming monthsl that. if there is another vote of no i confidence in the coming months how likely is that? you confidence in the coming months how likely is that?— likely is that? you obviously have those two tricky _ likely is that? you obviously have those two tricky by-elections i likely is that? you obviously have those two tricky by-elections on | those two tricky by—elections on june 23, where they are facing labour, if they lose both of those, as the party seems to think they might, then that will create more angst. plus, we have those investigations by the privileges committee into whether the prime minister knowingly misled the commons. we know he has misled them, but do knowingly misled as a very different matter. all those things will put pressure on the prime minister, but it is not about commencing the rebels, it is about convincing so graham brady to announce that vote. the formal rule

book says there must be a 12 month wait, but for him to change that rule book they would have to be a shift. when theresa may faced her confidence vote in 2018, she won that, so exactly that same thing about being safe, she was out of office within six months. the party had lost face. borisjohnson has always been more popular outside of westminster than in it. if that was to change, then the minister would have to worry. the average cost of a litre of unleaded petrol has risen again to 178.5p per litre — a rise of 0.6p in 24 hours. yesterday, the rac said that the price of petrol surged by nearly 5p a litre in the week that included the bank holiday break and could soon hit £1.80 a litre.

oil prices remain high due to the war in ukraine and sanctions to reduce europe's dependence on russia. and it's notjust petrol prices. fuel costs are rising across the board. 0ne haulage boss has said the cost of fueling one lorry is up £20,000 on last year. that's lesley o'brien from freight link europe whojoins me now. £20,000 is a prettily startling figure, tell us more about these price rises. it figure, tell us more about these price rises— figure, tell us more about these rice rises. , . . , , price rises. it is a massive impact, and it is price rises. it is a massive impact, and it is yet _ price rises. it is a massive impact, and it is yet another _ price rises. it is a massive impact, and it is yet another challenge i price rises. it is a massive impact, and it is yet another challenge for| and it is yet another challenge for the haulage industry. we have kept the haulage industry. we have kept the country going throughout covid and now we have this fuel crisis, which as you say, this time last year we were paying £1 a litre plus vat, and now it is just less than £1 50 per litre. we are working on

margins of less than 3%, so these have to be passed onto the consumer, and of course that impacts on the price that people pay for the goods in the shops. 50 price that people pay for the goods in the shops— in the shops. so what is the knock-on — in the shops. so what is the knock-on effect _ in the shops. so what is the knock-on effect on - in the shops. so what is the i knock-on effect on consumers in in the shops. so what is the - knock-on effect on consumers in the knock—on effect on consumers in the sense of what prices are you passing on? irate sense of what prices are you passing on? ~ . . sense of what prices are you passing on? . ., , ., sense of what prices are you passing on? . ., , sense of what prices are you passing on? . ,~ on? we as a company are quite fortunate — on? we as a company are quite fortunate in — on? we as a company are quite fortunate in that _ on? we as a company are quite fortunate in that we _ on? we as a company are quite fortunate in that we have i on? we as a company are quite fortunate in that we have had i on? we as a company are quite i fortunate in that we have had things in place for quite a few years, we are quite transparent with our customers. never before has it been this high. what the general operator is finding is that it is very difficult to pass these costs on, but they absolutely must be passed on, because if they are not, the small operators, which the vast majority are small family businesses, simply will go out of business. when we don't have trucks, we all know what happens. so these

costs must be passed on, but this is on top of the rising costs for drivers in national insurance, so these massive increases that are coming to the end consumer, they will come onto the prices in the shops. will come onto the prices in the sho s. �* will come onto the prices in the sho s. ~ _ , will come onto the prices in the shos. ~ , , shops. the rac says this is fast becoming _ shops. the rac says this is fast becoming a _ shops. the rac says this is fast becoming a national _ shops. the rac says this is fast becoming a national crisis, i shops. the rac says this is fast | becoming a national crisis, does shops. the rac says this is fast i becoming a national crisis, does it feel like a crisis to you? it feel like a crisis to you? it absolutely does. if operators do not pass the charge on, i've just said for one vehicle, if prices stay as they are now, and the view is that they are now, and the view is that they will escalate even more, then i am going to lose £20,000 per vehicle. it is a crisis, if i don't pass it on. what i would say to the large operators and the supermarkets and people who are buying transport is that they must accept these charges, and the man or woman in the street must accept that costs are going to go up. we are very grateful

that the chancellor gave a 5p cut in duty in the last budget, but it pretty much went unnoticed because fuel charges were soaring. the latest meeting that i went to that the road haulage association organised, we were asking for a rebate for the transport industry. if you help the transport industry, then you help everyone, because name me one thing that does not come on the back of a lorry. can me one thing that does not come on the back of a lorry.— the back of a lorry. can you clarify what the appg _ the back of a lorry. can you clarify what the appg is? _ the back of a lorry. can you clarify what the appg is? it _ the back of a lorry. can you clarify what the appg is? it is _ the back of a lorry. can you clarify what the appg is? it is a - the back of a lorry. can you clarify what the appg is? it is a group i the back of a lorry. can you clarify i what the appg is? it is a group that decides the — what the appg is? it is a group that decides the cost _ what the appg is? it is a group that decides the cost of _ what the appg is? it is a group that decides the cost of fuel _ what the appg is? it is a group that decides the cost of fuel on - what the appg is? it is a group that decides the cost of fuel on our i decides the cost of fuel on our industry, it affects everybody, it affects every industry, manufacturing, it's deals, schools,

for vehicle parts, and actually getting new tracks, so we were waiting for new trucks back in november last year, and they didn't come. this year there was a 30% increase in costs, so all costs are going up, but of course the fuel duty is the really quick, one hit that can help everybody in the country. that can help everybody in the count . . g that can help everybody in the count . . ~ i. now it's time for a look at the weather with darren. it isa it is a lovely picture, isn't it? fun trying it out across many parts of the country today. this is a little bit warmer than it was yesterday. still damp and drizzly across parts of england. could see one or two

showers cranking out. many places will stay fine and dry and those temperatures a bit higher than they were yesterday. 21 in birmingham. a few degrees lower that in aberdeen and newcastle. any showers that will form will fade away this evening at the expense of rain coming into the south west of england, wales and northern ireland before and at midnight. that leaves into scotland, it is going to be quite a warm night tonight. temperatures 13 celsius. it will stay dry ahead of that rain into tomorrow, the ray and get stuck across central parts of scotland where it will be cooler than today. rain clears and eastern parts of england then we will see some sunshine and showers. risks of the odd storm in england. we have the threat of some rain in northern ireland and temperatures on the whole similar to those of today. hello this is bbc news. i'm rebecca jones, the headlines: borisjohnson tells his top team he is drawing a line under questions

about his leadership after winning last night's vote of confidence. thank you everybody for all your good work yesterday which was a very important day, because we are able to draw a line under the issues that our opponents want to talk about, and we are able to get on with talking about what i think people in this country want us to talk about. i can announce that the parliamentary party does have confidence. but 148 conservative mps voted against the prime minister in a significant revolt against his leadership. ijust hope that given the mood of the public, the vote we've had here tonight, that the cabinet would go and tell the prime minister that in steve baker's words, the gig's up. i'll make a prediction. we're going to have a new prime minister, a new leader of the conservative party, by party conference this year. motoring groups call for government intervention to ease rising fuel prices

as the rac says it now costs £98 to fill the average car with petrol. the mother of music entrepreneur and youtube star jamal edwards has said his death was 'caused by taking recreational drugs'. borisjohnson had told his top team that he is drawing a line under questions about his leadership after winning last night's confidence vote in his leadership. the prime minister survived, but 2 in 5 of his own mps voted to get rid of him. under current rules he is now immune from a conservative leadership challenge for a year. let's go to geeta who's at college green in westminster for you we are trying to gather as much reaction for you as we can. hearing for example that the cabinet are staying very loyal. no sign yet of anyone acting on that after that huge vote last night which obviously

was very damaging for the prime minister that he has clearly survived. i am joined minister that he has clearly survived. lam joined now minister that he has clearly survived. i am joined now by so roger gale who has been a vocal critic of the prime minister. you tried to topple the prime minister, he has abide are you now going to stop attacking your own team? i was interested in — stop attacking your own team? i was interested in that _ stop attacking your own team? i was interested in that clip _ stop attacking your own team? i —" interested in that clip earlier that the prime minister and our opponents when he was referring to his government. we are not opponents of the government we are conservatives we are working on a conservative manifesto and we are trying to deliver conservative policies and conservative legislation. it is mr johnson that is a problem and seem to recognise that. shire johnson that is a problem and seem to recognise that.— to recognise that. are you going to stand than at _ to recognise that. are you going to stand than at the _ to recognise that. are you going to stand than at the next _ to recognise that. are you going to stand than at the next election i to recognise that. are you going toi stand than at the next election and ask constituents to vote to back into number ten if he is still there. iii into number ten if he is still there. . . ., , into number ten if he is still there. . . .,, _ into number ten if he is still there. . . _ ,

number ten downing street. i rather share the view that he probably wouldn't be that much before the late autumn. you have got to remember that there are a number of issues coming down the tracks, all of which spell dangerfor issues coming down the tracks, all of which spell danger for the prime minister. , . . of which spell danger for the prime minister. , , , ., of which spell danger for the prime minister. , , , . , minister. they spell danger but i don't see those _ minister. they spell danger but i don't see those who _ minister. they spell danger but i don't see those who are - minister. they spell danger but i don't see those who are not i minister. they spell danger but i i don't see those who are not happy with mrjohnson's leadership actually move out of downing street against his wishes because you lost want confidence vote and he was dented but he still standing. you are playing _ dented but he still standing. you are playing the — dented but he still standing. ym. are playing the media game of trying to present this as i can start it, orchestrated effort to get rid of the prime minister. it is not and it hasn't been. if it had been it might�*ve been better organised. the fact of the matter is you have got 141 individual back bench, members was parliament acting individually who have expressed our lack of confidence in the prime minister will stop that has got to be

devastating for the man in number ten. quite frankly, he ought to be considering his position. but we have got this report coming out in the autumn, if the privileges committee were to find that mr johnson had led the house which i think is highly likely. if they were to suspend him from the house. he would have to go because he cannot be prime minister and not be a member of the house. that be prime minister and not be a member of the house.- be prime minister and not be a member of the house. that is another six months or— member of the house. that is another six months or so _ member of the house. that is another six months or so of— member of the house. that is another six months or so of division _ member of the house. that is another six months or so of division within i six months or so of division within your party, the public is not going to warm to a government which is fighting itself. it should be focused on the much bigger issues at the public is facing. is it time for the public is facing. is it time for the rebels to say, look, you have tried. the prime minister has won let him take you into election. time let him take you into election. none ofthe let him take you into election. none of the fundamental _ let him take you into election. none of the fundamental concerns i let him take you into election. time: of the fundamental concerns of the virus to have changed as a result of the vote. the fundamental concern as one of honesty in about the man in

act 2021 comes into force. the legislation sets out a new legal definition for the act, for which perpetrators can face up to 5 years in prision. nearly a third of female homicides in uk are the result of strangulation or suffocation. joiing me now from manchester, cristina odone from the centre for socialjustice. thanks forjoining us, how significant is this change in the law in your view? i significant is this change in the law in your view?— law in your view? i think it is hue, i law in your view? i think it is huge. i think— law in your view? i think it is huge, i think it _ law in your view? i think it is huge, i think it shows i law in your view? i think it is huge, i think it shows that i law in your view? i think it is i huge, i think it shows that the act has really made a difference. it has brought to public attention a hidden crime, which actually pawn has been validated all through for many years now. and what it is saying is that this is unacceptable. new fatal

strangulation is a violence against the victim and that victim is in most cases a woman. and it is not part of an entertaining, empowering role—play no, it is a crime. it is notjust role—play no, it is a crime. it is not just a role—play no, it is a crime. it is notjust a kinky role—play no, it is a crime. it is not just a kinky attitude to role—play no, it is a crime. it is notjust a kinky attitude to sex. how confident are you that this law will make a difference because it does depend a lot on the correct training, doesn't it of police officers and other authorities to recognise that the. you officers and other authorities to recognise that the.— officers and other authorities to recognise that the. you are right, and this is — recognise that the. you are right, and this is one _ recognise that the. you are right, and this is one of _ recognise that the. you are right, and this is one of the _ recognise that the. you are right, and this is one of the reasons i recognise that the. you are right, | and this is one of the reasons why only 17% of domestic abuse victims go and report to police, because it is so difficult, even once you have reported to be identified, to be

supported, to have the perpetrator prosecuted. so, yes, that is an issue. and that will be an issue with near fatal strangulation. issue. and that will be an issue with nearfatal strangulation. but with near fatal strangulation. but it with nearfatal strangulation. but it is so important that we recognise that this is notjust some kind of funny sexy game. this is violence and it is a crime. let funny sexy game. this is violence and it is a crime.— and it is a crime. let me pick you u . and it is a crime. let me pick you u- on and it is a crime. let me pick you up on that _ and it is a crime. let me pick you up on that rather startling i and it is a crime. let me pick you i up on that rather startling figure, only 17% is currently reported. you touched on one of the reasons why but tell me a little more way that they get solo. but tell me a little more way that they get solo-— but tell me a little more way that the net solo. �* , g, ., they get solo. because men and women know that prosecutions _ they get solo. because men and women know that prosecutions are _ they get solo. because men and women know that prosecutions are very - they get solo. because men and women know that prosecutions are very low i know that prosecutions are very low it is just like know that prosecutions are very low it isjust like in rape, you get the police involved not much happens. there has often been a dismissal of of domestic abuse and it is many different elements, including their fatal strain relation. just the

word, domestic abuse makes it sound like it to something in the private realm. like, decoration or like setting up home together. no there is nothing domestic about this kind of violence it is horrible, it is he he enough it is a crime and it should be prosecuted. the government said it is putting up money for domestic abuse training, i assume you welcome that. but what do you think would encourage more women to come forward? most women go to their gps when they go forward, not to the police so i think their absolute focus of any training should be for the health professionals. in fact in our report which is called no honour in abuse. we look at domestic abuse in abuse. we look at domestic abuse

in all its permutations to a health perspective. we think that gps, health visitors, midwives have a huge duty of care towards victims of any kind of abuse. and i think they are under skills, and would welcome more training i'm not sure £3 million would cover it but i think it is a good start. three police officers in the us state of arizona have been put on leave after they stood by and watched a homeless man drowning. newly released bodycam footage and transcripts show the man getting into a lake last month, and telling police he was "going to drown". 0ne officer responded, i'm not going tojump in after you. cbs reporter alexis dominguez has the latest. she thinks you're from japan. in this tempe police body cam video officers are seen speaking with 34—year—old sean bickings and a woman

about a domestic disturbance. on may 28th, police reported the man, now identified as bickings, ran from police to avoid arrest due to warrants. police later clarified he was not a suspect and was not being pursued. the body camera footage shows bickings standing and looking over the railing to the lake. suddenly, the officer turns away, and you hear bickings apologise to the officers. bickings then begins to climb over the fence. next, bickings is seen swimming in the lake underneath the pedestrian bridge. officers are heard speaking to each other about what to do. video shows one of the officers leaning over the railing watching bickings swim before walking to the pedestrian bridge. the transcript picks up the video leaves off.

an officer asks bickings, what is your plan right now? according to the transcript, bickings tells police repeatedly he is going to drown, an officer assures him he won't and tells him to swim to the pylon. bickings says he can't and the officer replies, 0k, lam notjumping in afteryou. patients with long covid are facing a postcode lottery across the uk when it comes to getting care, according to the royal college of nursing. there are around 90 dedicated adult clinics in england but many of those suffering are facing long waits. new figures released last week show a record two million people in the uk are estimated to be suffering from long covid. around 376,000 of them first had the virus at least two years ago.

i'm nowjoined by dr david strain who is a senior clinical lecturer at the university of exeter and also part of the nhs long covid task force. very good to have this with you, i wonder festival if you could help us with a definition of long covert. so with a definition of long covert. ’sr long covert with a definition of long covert. sr long covert is with a definition of long covert. sf long covert is the patient preferred term for people who have been left with any symptoms for more than three months beyond the initial diagnosis, there are many different forms in it. there are those who are hospitalised with covid they are left with the injuries you might expect after being on nicu. the majority of people are left with this very nonspecific fatigue, lack of energy, they are left with muscle aches and pain, brain fog, difficulty concentrating as well as palpitations that are

disproportionate with the initial symptoms they had with the very often initial mild covert infection. that is very interesting so what you're saying is it involves a range of patient so it does it mean for example if you are hospitalised or suffered from covid very badly you are more likely to get long covid. you might have had quite a mild bout and still sufferfrom you might have had quite a mild bout and still suffer from the symptoms? yes, exactly people who are hospitalised are more likely to be left with symptoms. but because only 5% of the population who had covid were hospitalised, the majority of people who have got long covid had the more mild version. iaiiuiilhzit people who have got long covid had the more mild version.— the more mild version. what about children or — the more mild version. what about children or young _ the more mild version. what about children or young people, - the more mild version. what about children or young people, a i the more mild version. what about children or young people, a more i children or young people, a more adversely effective? i asked that because over the course of few weeks i seem to have interviewed a lot of younger people who have suffered quite badly with long covert. trite younger people who have suffered quite badly with long covert. we are onl 'ust

quite badly with long covert. we are onlyjust beginning _ quite badly with long covert. we are onlyjust beginning to _ quite badly with long covert. we are onlyjust beginning to get _ quite badly with long covert. we are onlyjust beginning to get the i quite badly with long covert. we are onlyjust beginning to get the gripsl onlyjust beginning to get the grips of children who are left with long covid. children catching covert in the initial waves wasn't as common and what we are really concerned about now is the amount of children who have the omnicom variant this is the version that has been running around the population dramatically in the last six months or so and we are onlyjust getting to grips with the number of children that have suffered it. they can be left with exactly the same symptoms, obviously for a child that means missing months of school. that means not engaging in their social environments and the amount a development that children are missing during this period is likely to have a much greater impact. even if the disease itself is not as severe for them.— if the disease itself is not as severe for them. that is very interesting. _ severe for them. that is very interesting, we _ severe for them. that is very interesting, we are _ severe for them. that is very interesting, we are talking i severe for them. that is very i interesting, we are talking today about this postcode lottery, across the uk when it comes to getting care. this is according to the royal couege care. this is according to the royal college of nursing. as part of the problem there because doctors aren't

all on the same page, or don't fully understand how best to deal with long covid? i understand how best to deal with long covid?— long covid? i think you are absolutely _ long covid? i think you are absolutely right _ long covid? i think you are absolutely right with i long covid? i think you are absolutely right with some| long covid? i think you are - absolutely right with some cases of long covid there is an obvious cause for stop. for if long covid there is an obvious cause for if you have got cardiac information, so if you are getting palpitations again we know how to deal with that. however, for the majority, about 85% with this fatigue, the brain fog, the muscle aches and pains. the nearest disease to that is chronic fatigue syndrome. and as yet we don't have a good robust treatment for that that we can even attempt in other patients. let alone research specifically to this disease that is less than two years old. now that causes doctors and health care workers across the board, the allied health professionals who do the bulk of the

work a tremendous amount of difficulties because if you don't have a confirmed trial treatment that you know is going to be effective. it leaves doctors and health care practitioners attempting their own thing until we fully know what the right strategy is going to be. thousands of people gathered in northern france yesterday to mark the 78th anniversary of the d—day landings. the british normandy memorial was opened officially last year but because of covid restrictions veterans could not travel to mark d day. some did travel to mark the anniversary this year, with remembrance at the heart of the ceremonies. john maguire reports from ver—sur—mer. today, the normandy coastline, with its calm sea and cobalt blue sky, belies its history. the chaos and carnage

of d—day, a lifetime away. with the beaches they stormed 78 years ago as the backdrop, men who fought here laid wreaths to honour the fallen. it's been a long time coming, but the british normandy memorial, officially opened last year under covid restrictions, could at last host veterans for the 6th ofjune anniversary. seeing it for the first time is ken cooke. it's a beautiful place. i didn't expect it to be as beautiful as what it is, and it will be a very lasting memorial. ken was just 18 years old when he landed here at ver—sur—mer or gold beach, as it was known on the first day of battle. i've always thought that the [ads that didn't come back are the heroes. we are not the heroes

who've survived. the heroes are the lads that's still over there. there's still a lot of memories. i've tried to get rid of some of them, but some of them will never go away. a fly—past by a spitfire from the battle of britain memorial flight recreated a fraction of the soundscape that would have assaulted the senses. ken hay was still a teenager when he first landed in normandy, his thoughts summed up in a poem he wrote and read at a remembrance service. lord, keep me safe. i'm just 18, and still a lot of life to live. for many of the veterans visiting graves of mates, now seeing their names immortalized here, means so much to them. we were in signal platoon

together with the essex. ken remembers denny circus, who'd intended to return home and marry his sweetheart. he was talking about, "we'll get married after the war." they were already making their plans. there he is. and i suppose that girl was left hot and dry. he was a really good guy. not because he's dead. he was a really good guy. the memorial was built to give remembrance a physical form, the names of the 22,410 men and women under british control who died in normandy. among those chiselled into the stone is raymond carr. we found his name, and of course, he's under the royal air force there. and then you come down that column, 13, and there you are, "carr r, sergeant, 21." his brother peter is here, along with his granddaughter, to find raymond's name.

why does it mean so much? 0h, your brother, yeah. yeah, very emotional. yeah, it is. they've done such a brilliantjob. wonderful. in one sense i'm very sad. and on the other, i'm very proud. he's there. yeah. he was part of it, wasn't he? that's it, really. it gets me a bit. but, there you go. casey will now pick up the baton and carry on the family's history. when my dad said, "oh, granddad wants to take you to france for the d—day memorial", it's like, "yeah, i'll go." i was so happy they wanted me to go with them. despite their age and their dwindling number, the veterans take

part in a packed programme of events when they visit the former battlefields. here in normandy, d—day is defined notjust by remembrance, but also by gratitude. the french celebrate their liberation, their freedom, delivered by men and women, all courageous, many terrified, and many who will forever rest in the land they set free. now it's time for a look at the weather with darren bett. hello there. it's still a bit of a mixed bag for us today. many parts of the country, though, will be seeing some warm sunshine coming through. later in the day, we're going to start to see this weather front arriving in the southwest and that will push rain northwards and eastwards this evening and overnight. and if that's still a bit cloudy and damp across some

of these more southern counties of england with some sunshine elsewhere, we're going to find one or two showers popping off. but on the whole, temperatures are a little bit higher than they were yesterday. heading into this evening, we'll see those showers soon fading away. but then we've got this rain coming into wales, in the southwest, northern ireland, that band of rain sweeps its way towards eastern parts of england and up into the southwest of scotland. pretty mild overnight temperatures for many places, 13, 1a degrees, a little bit cooler ahead of that rain across some northern parts of scotland. and here it may well stay dry during wednesday because that rain sort of grinds to a halt across the central belt. the rain bands some moves away from eastern parts of england. then we'll see some sunshine and some showers. blustery winds across southern parts of england, one or two thunderstorms possible in eastern england as the showers become fewer in wales and the south west, maybe a bit of cloud and rain threatening northern ireland during the afternoon. temperatures on the whole fairly similar to what we're seeing today. now, let me take you the other side of the atlantic. this area of cloud here is ex—tropical storm alex and that gave

a lot of flooding rains across florida and the bahamas over the weekend. and that deep area of low pressure is tracking towards the uk. on that weather front there, this is where we'll see some rain. there won't be much rain at all. mind you, it eventually sneaks into wales, the south west and northern ireland. ahead of that maybe one or two showers, but the winds are going to be light. when the sunshine develops a little more widely, it'll feel quite warm once again with temperatures peaking at 21 celsius. now, recent models have tracked that area of low pressure, the ex— tropical storm further away from the uk. so the winds are not looking quite as strong now. it'll be a breezy day. yes. and we're going to draw in south—westerly winds that will bring with it some warmer air as well. strongest winds. they're going to be towards the northwest of the uk. and this is where we're going to find some fairly frequent, perhaps heavy showers as well. still got that weather front in the south east, not bringing much rain. it does move away and then we'll see some sunshine developing more widely. that's going to give the temperatures a boost.

it is warmer air. so we're looking at highs in eastern parts as high

after the vote of confidence in his leadership, borisjohnson tells the cabinet it's time to draw a line under the issues their opponents want to talk about. he survived a vote by his own mps, but 148 of them wanted him out. his message to them... we are able now to draw a line under the issues that our opponents want to talk about and we are able to get on with talking about what i think the people in this country want us to talk about, which is what we are doing to help them. we'll be asking just how secure the prime minister is now. also this lunchtime... the cost of filling up the tank continues to rise — it now costs an unprecedented £98 to fill a family car with petrol. two cities in eastern ukraine

are now dead, according to president zelensky, after relentless russian bombardment
