' independence but they are also their independence but they are also fighting for values which are important for nato. the sovereignty, the territorial integrity of every nation and therefore this matters for our security. our focus now nation and therefore this matters for our security. ourfocus now is to support ukraine. this war will as most other wars and at the negotiating table but it is important that ukraine is able to get an agreement on their terms. which is acceptable for ukraine and therefore we know there is a close link between what they can achieve around the negotiating table and their strength on the battlefield and our focus now their strength on the battlefield and ourfocus now is their strength on the battlefield and our focus now is to support them on the battlefield with many different types of lethal and non—lethal support. that is the focus and then of course we have demonstrated today that nato's door remains open and we also reiterate

the decision made in bucharest on membership for ukraine. welcome to madrid. you don't have a crystal ball, but i'm wonderin-, how crystal ball, but i'm wondering, how much _ crystal ball, but i'm wondering, how much longer will it take for finland and sweden tojoin nato since it's a pretty— and sweden tojoin nato since it's a pretty urgent situation? 30 and sweden to join nato since it's a pretty urgent situation?— pretty urgent situation? so far, this is the _ pretty urgent situation? so far, this is the fastest _ pretty urgent situation? so far, this is the fastest accession - this is the fastest accession process ever. because finland and sweden apply to membership in may and now at the end ofjune leaders invite them to become members and they will sign for accession protocol and then what remains, of course, is the ratification. i cannot speak or promise anything under half of 30 different

parliaments, but the message in the room is that, throughout the alliance, there is a strong will to work with parliaments so they can do the ratification as soon as possible. so this has moved fast so far and of course i expect that the allies are able to ratify as soon as possible but different countries have different procedures. so this will take some time.— have different procedures. so this will take some time. thank you very much. will take some time. thank you very much- you — will take some time. thank you very much. you were _ will take some time. thank you very much. you were very _ will take some time. thank you very much. you were very gracious, - will take some time. thank you very| much. you were very gracious, great in the _ much. you were very gracious, great in the canadian prime minister today — in the canadian prime minister today. but our spending isjust awful. — today. but our spending isjust awful. if— today. but our spending isjust awful, if you are measured by gdp decreased — awful, if you are measured by gdp decreased in absolute terms, we are nowhere _ decreased in absolute terms, we are nowhere near 2%, its not your place, but i _ nowhere near 2%, its not your place, but i wonder— nowhere near 2%, its not your place, but i wonder how might you convince a canadian _ but i wonder how might you convince a canadian public and canadian politician — a canadian public and canadian politician to spend more on defence? what then— politician to spend more on defence? what then might a medium or smaller military—

what then might a medium or smaller military paradigm to contribute some of this— military paradigm to contribute some of this narrow focus in china and asia _ of this narrow focus in china and asia as — of this narrow focus in china and asia as well— of this narrow focus in china and asia as well as here in europe? gf asia as well as here in europe? course, i asia as well as here in europe? of course, i expect all allies to meet the guidelines we have set and we agreed that back in 2014 for up until 2024 and since then the world has just become more dangerous. until 2024 and since then the world hasjust become more dangerous. i have been a politician myself many years and i understand it's always easier to invest in health, education and infrastructure instead of allocating money for defence. that is also the reason why nato allies have reduced defence spending since the end of the cold war but if we reduce defence spending we have to increase defence spending when tensions are growing up and when we live in a more dangerous world. i welcome the fact that while nato allies have increased defence spending and added a lot. not all allies have plans in place to

present by 2024, but the vast majority have such plans and more and more allies are actually meeting the 2% target over a close. so of course this is a message to all allies, including canada, the same time welcoming the fact that and allies are providing a lot of capabilities, contributions to nato missions and operations, and canada lead the battle group in canada. i have been speaking with prime minister trudeau and also welcome the fact that canada is not stepping up the fact that canada is not stepping up its presidents in latvia this counts a lot when it to contributions to defence. i’m counts a lot when it to contributions to defence. i'm afraid that's where _ contributions to defence. i'm afraid that's where we _ contributions to defence. i'm afraid that's where we have _ contributions to defence. i'm afraid that's where we have time - contributions to defence. i'm afraid that's where we have time for, - contributions to defence. i'm afraid i that's where we have time for, thank you. that's where we have time for, thank ou. . ~' that's where we have time for, thank ou. . ~ , ., that's where we have time for, thank ou. ., ~ i. that's where we have time for, thank ou. ., ~ .

strengthened passage of support, equipment and modernising the defence sector, but also shoring up nato's eastern flank with brigade size units, 3—5000 troops being deployed by nato to be more vulnerable eastern members of the alliance, latvia, lithuania, estonia, more trips to poland and romania, and of course also laying out that sweden and finland have now been formally invited to join the nato alliance as the 31st in 32nd members after turkey dropped its veto to the membership of those two nordic countries, turkey had claimed they were both supporting terrorism, but finally, after a mini summit last night between turkey, sweden and finland, turkey has unblocked the veto and sweden and finland will now be formally invited to join the nato alliance, so some early achievements of this nato summit but also still plenty to talk about, not

least more support for ukraine, president zelensky speaking to the nato leaders this morning by video conference and saying his country needs $5 billion worth of financial support and more modern weapons, $5 billion per month, in order to continue fighting russia. well, plenty to unpack with our guest for this hour, so adam thompson, director of the european leadership network think tank and was bitten's ambassador to nato between 2014 and 16. -- ambassador to nato between 2014 and 16. —— britain's. you have a listen to snippets ofjens stoltenberg's announcement, and you may have at the summit declaration, does the nato summit so far fulfilled your expectation, does it far enough? it is a good summit for nato, partly because it has managed to produce a

new strategic concept, even if it could go further, and because of the step last night to invite finland and sweden. so, politically, nato is looking unified and has got very solid things to say on the military front, which has its bread and butter. it is really announcing a huge geopolitical shift in terms of the upscaling of european effort to deliver 300,000 troops, ready within 30 days. that is a dramatic change of ambition in nato's military capability, and it goes along with more on the border with russia. you have mentioned the brigade size units that were being beefed up from

the baltics to the black sea. so nato has a good story to tell, but it still needs to go further, in my view, to answer your question, because it has not yetjoined up on the brand strategy. what will its approach be to ukraine and, above all, what is its long—term strategy towards russia? all, what is its long-term strategy towards russia?— all, what is its long-term strategy towards russia? sorry to interrupt, does it need _ towards russia? sorry to interrupt, does it need to _ towards russia? sorry to interrupt, does it need to go _ towards russia? sorry to interrupt, does it need to go further - towards russia? sorry to interrupt, does it need to go further in - towards russia? sorry to interrupt, does it need to go further in terms| does it need to go further in terms of more troops still? we took there about the brigade level units being put on the eastern flank, but some of these countries wanted 20—25,000 troops per country, division size combat units, and there will be far fewer than they wanted.— fewer than they wanted. there will alwa s be fewer than they wanted. there will always be very _ fewer than they wanted. there will always be very understandable - fewer than they wanted. there will always be very understandable runj always be very understandable run between those on the front line who

have historically suffered from aggression and those who have to provide the men and the material. my senseis provide the men and the material. my sense is that, militarily to —— militarily, we weakened russia and will understand perfectly well that if nato can credibly master those 300,000 men within 30 days, it will not be trying direct military adventures against the alliance, instead it will be far more on the political and so—called hybrid planes. so i think, militarily, nato has announced enough, it now has to deliver on those commitments, and i know from my experience that this can take years to develop the

readiness, to find the capabilities to fill the gaps, and nato would be acutely aware now of just to fill the gaps, and nato would be acutely aware now ofjust how much it is committing itself to do. sir adam, you were british ambassador to nato from 2014—16, so just when russia annexed crimea and sent some of its troops into eastern ukraine. with hindsight, was the mistake not... bringing ukraine into nato quicker back then and not establishing the redline which therefore has allowed russia to continue its expansion is now? was that a mistake, to leave ukraine at the door of nato for so many years? well, this will be debated by historians for decades to come. in my personal view, the nato mistake was its declaration at its summit in

bucharest in 2008, and this was a bad sentence, that ukraine and georgia will become members of the nato alliance. nato did not say how that was going to come to pass when it was going to come to pass or what the requirements would be the ukraine four georgia, or how nato was going to make good on that commitment, so it stirred a russian hornet�*s nest without identifying any of the solutions and, by 2014, in a sense, the damage had been done and it was too late. had nato at that stage been taking in ukraine, it would be taking in a live conflict with russia at the same time, something for which nato has never been designed and which it was

politically not ready to do. so you can play scenarios... haste politically not ready to do. so you can play scenarios. . ._ politically not ready to do. so you can play scenarios... we will have to leave it — can play scenarios... we will have to leave it there, _ can play scenarios... we will have to leave it there, thank _ can play scenarios... we will have to leave it there, thank you - can play scenarios... we will have to leave it there, thank you very l to leave it there, thank you very much indeed, staring the russian hornet�*s nest, as you say, which has continued to explode since then. some in the large strategic concept, it talked about how there was a desire for a strategic partnership with russia but today we now know that the leaders of the nato allowance have identified russia as the most significant direct threat to the security, peace and stability of the euro atlantic area is the nato summit continues to work out how to counter the threat and how to support its vital partner, ukraine. —— alliance. ukraine says russia fired eight missiles at a city in the south of the country, killing three people in a residential building. it comes as president zelensky released cctv of the moment

a missile struck at a shopping centre in kremenchuk — an attack which killed at least 18 people on monday. he said it was a deliberate strike designed to kill as many people as possible. from kyiv, joe inwood has sent this report. it is hard to deny — this cctv footage clearly shows the missile that struck a shopping centre in kremenchuk in mid—flight. compare that to the russian version of events. "detonation of stored western weapons and ammunition caused a fire," the spokesman says, "in a nearby non—functioning shopping mall." but analysis of the footage by open—source investigators has proved it was a direct hit on the amstor complex. the tower and container can be seen here and here on recent satellite imagery. the shopping centre is visible in both. there are a number of other features identified by the investigators. president zelensky maintains

it was a terrorist act. translation: the russian missile hit this location - precisely, deliberately. it is clear those were the orders given. they wanted to kill as many people as possible in a peaceful city, in an ordinary shopping mall. as the clean—up continues, the remnants of destroyed shops are everywhere. as well as denying it was a missile responsible for this devastation, russia also claims the centre was not in use when it struck. the number of victims suggests that is not true. translation: it's - terrible beyond words. how many people were there? it was rush hour, people were returning from work. lots of shops, there were always a lot of people in amstor. the british ministry of defence has since said there is a realistic possibility was intended to hit

a nearby infrastructure target — but missed, with devastating consequences for the people of kremenchuk. in this war, russia has often been accused of lying — rarely has it been so clearly demonstrated. joe inwood, bbc news, kyiv. the duke and duchess of cambridge have paid tribute to dame deborahjames following what they called the heartbreaking news of her death at the age of 40. they described her as an inspirational and unfalteringly brave woman whose legacy will live on. charities have also praised dame deborah's work as a cancer campaigner, blogger and broadcaster. diagnosed with bowel cancer at the age ofjust 35, the fund she set up, which she called her bowel babe fund, to raise money for new treatments and research has now raised nearly £7 million. helena wilkinson looks back at deborahjames' life and work. # i'm singing in the rain...# dame deborahjames faced her cancer

written to the chief constable to inform him that from 5p on friday members will withdraw their goodwill until further notice. the federation said they are taking this action in order to bring about a return to the negotiating table while police officers are not allowed to take industrial action by law, this approach, according to the federation, sets out the defending officer is working outside previous rostered hours then they will claim overtime for that, so that is the police federation informing the chief constable of the unhappiness at their current conditions, following those industries which have taken strike action, as they are legally allowed to do, including of course those continuing transport strikes. a man has appeared in court, charged with the murder of 35—year—old zara aleena in east london. jordan mcsweeny has also been charged with attempted rape and robbery and was remanded in custody after appearing

at thames magistrates court. zara aleena was found suffering head injuries in the early hours of sunday and died in hospital later that morning. in a tribute, her family described her as "a joy to all of us" and said their loss was irreparable. our home affairs correspondent, daniel sandford, has more. zara aleena's family this morning described her as a carefree spirit with the most caring heart. they talked about her glorious laughter and her tiny frame, which embodied a passionate spirit and indomitable energy. they said she walked everywhere. she put her party shoes in her bag and donned her trainers. zara believed that a woman should be able to walk home. now her dreams of a family are shattered, her future brutally taken. well, this afternoon, a man appeared here at thames magistrates' court. he's 29—year—old jordan mcsweeney and he appeared in a police—issued grey tracksuit. he was told he was charged with the murder of 35—year—old zara aleena on cranbrook road in ilford in the early hours of sunday morning.

he's also charged with attempted rape and the robbery of her mobile phone, her keys and her handbag. he gave no indication of plea, and he was remanded in custody until a bail hearing at the old bailey on the 1st ofjuly — that's friday. a watchdog has put the metropolitan police into special measures, meaning senior officers will be required to make improvements at scotland yard. her majesty's inspectorate of constabulary and fire and rescue services has intervened following a series of failures, including the murder of sarah everard and the strip search of a black schoolgirl. kit malthouse, the crime and policing minister says the government supports the action of the inspectorate. the public put their trust in the police and have every right to expect the country's largest. to protect them effectively and carry out their duties to the highest standards, they expect them to get

their basics right. while very many police officers do exactly that, it is clear the service is falling short of these expectations and the public confidence has been severely undermined. the government supports the action that the inspectorate has taken to escalate the force into special measures and address where it is falling short. the public also elected a mayor to bring governance and accountability in their name and i now expect the mayor of london, as the police and crime commissioner, to act swiftly to ensure he and deliver improvements, went back public trust and make london's streets safer. sarahjones, shadow minister for crime and policing said there have been serious failings by the met, but described mr malthouse's announcement about what should be done as �*weak�*. the minister's announcement about what needs to be done is incredibly weak. he talks about support for victims but where is the victim is law the government has been

promising for years when we know there is a massive increase in the number of cases collapsing because they drop out on his watch? he talks about addressing the strip searches on children but has totally failed to bring forward new guidance and strip searches that we have been calling for four months. he talks about reforming culture but only refers to two long—term inquiries, even though we know the action is needed now. the minister is right that the system for holding forces to account has worked in this case but we need change to follow. a verdict is expected today in the trial of 20 men accused of involvement in the islamist attacks in paris in november 2015. gunmen killed 130 people in locations across the french capital, including bars, restaurants, the national football stadium and the bataclan concert hall. the trial, in a specially—built courtroom, has lasted more than nine months. the queen has held a meeting with scotland's first minister nicola sturgeon a day after the scottish leader set out plans to push for a second independence referendum to break

away from the united kingdom. the snp has said it wants the queen to remain as head of state if scotland becomes independent. the queen, who has missed several public events in recent months due to difficulties with her mobility, has been seen smiling and watching events during the annual "royal week" in scotland. now it's time for a look at the weather with chris. hello again. we're looking at lots of showers this afternoon, some of them turning heavy and thundery, quite slow—moving as well. but there will be some areas that dodge the showers altogether. now, across southwest england, we've got a convergence zone where the winds kind of bash together. that means most of the showers will form across inland areas of the southwest, leaving relatively few showers around coastal areas in the southwest. that's one area that could stay dry. not many showers across east anglia in the southeast, but otherwise showers and thunderstorms are going to be quite widespread today. overnight tonight, a band of rain moves up from the south, affecting certainly england, probably wales, and getting into scotland by the end of the night.

temperatures similar to those of recent nights, staying into double figures. now, tomorrow morning, we start off with that same band of rain affecting scotland, moving its way northwards through the day, some of the rain heavy for a time. showers follow that feature. again, the showers widespread, heavy, thundery, slow—moving, a bit of hail mixed in, and temperatures at best reaching the low 20s.

this is bbc news. nato leaders agree to significantly strengthen its own deterrence and defence capabilities while also pledging its unwavering support of ukraine against russia's invasion of the country. ukraine's president tells nato leaders meeting in madrid that his country needs five billion dollars a month to fight russia's forces while also renewing his plea for air defence systems. that comes as ukraine releases a video of the moment a russian missile struck a packed shopping centre in kremenchuk on monday — killing at least 18 people.

you can watch some of the tennis if you want but please stick with the news. the nhs app in england is to be updated, adding features for patients to access more personalised care. by march next year, all users will be able to receive messages from their gp and to view and manage some hospital appointments. by 2024 the app should offer face to face video consultations. the department of health says it's part of the government's plan for digital health care. here's the health secretary, sajid javid. today we're launching a digital revolution for the nhs and care through this new plan. i want patients to have effective and quick access for their health needs at their fingertips and that's not only better for them in terms of outcomes, but it's betterfor the nhs. it will save time and it will save money. so the plan we're publishing today covers everything from digital robots to remote monitoring, the use of artificial intelligence, electronic patient records and the nhs app. everyone remembers the nhs app from the height of the pandemic. some 28 million people already have downloaded it.

i think that's something like 60% of adults. so we're going to add new features to that over the coming months and years. you'll be able to book your gp appointment and have messages you exchange with your gp. you'll be able to monitor and manage your hospital appointments. you'll be able to access not just your records but your children's health records. so there's so much more we can do. i've seen great examples of what we can achieve here today at the great 0rmond street, where they're already a step ahead in terms of digital technology. and really the end result of all this is that i want the values of the nhs from 1948 when it was founded, but we've got to be planning for 2048. let's speak to rachel power — who's the chief executive of the patient�*s association — a charity which campaigns for improvements in health and social care for patients. you campaign for improvements, is this one of them?— this one of them? hello. i think this one of them? hello. i think this probably — this one of them? hello. i think this probably is _ this one of them? hello. i think this probably is one _ this one of them? hello. i think this probably is one of- this one of them? hello. i think this probably is one of them. i this probably is one of them. anytime anyone is told of an it

there so health care professionals can do this piece of work around digitalisation of health care. the other area we are concerned is people who don't access digital and i was grateful to hear the secretary of state saying this is not a default but a choice.- of state saying this is not a default but a choice. and i wonder how protected _ default but a choice. and i wonder how protected those _ default but a choice. and i wonder how protected those people - default but a choice. and i wonderj how protected those people might default but a choice. and i wonder- how protected those people might be. they might be older people, people with parkinson's who struggle to press buttons on phones. are you sure they would have the help they would need? irla sure they would have the help they would need?— sure they would have the help they would need? ., ., ., , ., would need? no and that is what we will be asking _ would need? no and that is what we will be asking for, _ would need? no and that is what we will be asking for, how— would need? no and that is what we will be asking for, how we _ would need? no and that is what we will be asking for, how we can - will be asking for, how we can ensure patients are fully involved in the implementation of this. it goes wider than the category of patients you talk about. there are also patients, with the cost of living crisis, having wi—fi at home and the geography of being able to use wi—fi and english as a second language.

it embarrassing. the thing is, checking your to is better than having bowel cancer, so do not die of embarrassment. what you do if you have any blood, it may be, it may just be a pile, that is another taboo busted on air, it could be you have piles. it could be something more serious, so if you have any blood there, go to the doctor, the doctor will give you a tub or tube and you give them a sample. collecting is, i leave it to your imagination, and they send it off and if they detect blood in it that comes from something problematic, then you will have a colonoscopy. that is where they put a tube up your bottom with a camera on the end. again it sounds horrendous. but if you get the sedation, you don't feel a thing. it can really put your

mind at rest because you had to take these purging, there is nothing left in there, believe me, and they look round and you can watch it if you are conscious on a big screen. did ou? i are conscious on a big screen. did you? i was _ are conscious on a big screen. did you? i was going _ are conscious on a big screen. did you? i was going in _ are conscious on a big screen. did you? i was going in and _ are conscious on a big screen. did you? i was going in and out - are conscious on a big screen. did you? i was going in and out of - you? i was going in and out of consciousness. _ you? i was going in and out of consciousness. they - you? i was going in and out of consciousness. they can - you? i was going in and out of consciousness. they can find l you? i was going in and out of - consciousness. they can find things or not. it can put your mind at rest, it doesn't hurt but if you don't do that, sometimes you don't even have these symptoms, i didn't but i thought i should get a test. i was really very fortunate because had it beenjust was really very fortunate because had it been just left, was really very fortunate because had it beenjust left, it was really very fortunate because had it been just left, it could was really very fortunate because had it beenjust left, it could have been much worse news. don't be embarrassed because having cancer is much worse than being embarrassed, so deborahjames has been the first one to check your hoop and if you do that, you might get a long life out of it that otherwise you might not have had. haste of it that otherwise you might not have had. ~ . ~ of it that otherwise you might not have had. ~ ., ~ .,

vigilance so be vigilant. if something feels different, it might be another cancer, it may be a lump you are not sure of, it could be you mysteriously lose wait without trying, it could be a number of different things. the relevant charities have a fantastic website, bowel cancer uk have a fantastic website and it will tell you what may or may not be, what you might have to do. step one, go and see the doctor if you are concerned. and deborah would have said, because i know because i spoke to her about it, she said don't take no for an answer because hers was not diagnosed for a while. by the time it was diagnosed it was way more serious. if it doesn't go away when the doctor says it might, go back, make a nuisance of yourself because particularly with young people, she

was diagnosed in her mid—30s. i was diagnosed when i was 58 and it is much more associated with older people but younger people can get it to. , , �* ., ., ~ to. jeremy bowen, i would middle east editor. _ to. jeremy bowen, i would middle east editor, thank _ to. jeremy bowen, i would middle east editor, thank you _ to. jeremy bowen, i would middle east editor, thank you for - to. jeremy bowen, i would middle| east editor, thank you for coming. nato leaders strengthen alliances whilst also pledging its support of ukraine against russia's invasion of the country. ukraine's president tells nato leaders that his country needs $5 billion a month to fight russia's forces whilst also renewing his plea forces whilst also renewing his plea for a defence systems. inspirational and brave, the duke and duchess of cambridge need tributes to dame deborahjames who died yesterday at the age of 40. climate advisers have condemned the government for what they've described

as a "shocking" lack of commitment to insulating people's homes. the criticism was contained in the annual review of the climate change committee which has been looking at the progress of ministers in curbing harmful emissions. the government said the uk was "leading the world" on climate change. the committee says unless policies the committee says unless policies are improved, the government will need to try another tack to persuade people to fly yes and eat less meat. it criticises a lack of policy to insulative home saying households would say £40 a year. i'm joined now by one of the members of the climate change committee — the director of analysis mike thompson. what do you make of it? the point we are making today _ what do you make of it? the point we are making today is _ what do you make of it? the point we are making today is the _ what do you make of it? the point we are making today is the government | are making today is the government is right, they have been leading the world in setting targets and ambitions and rough plans to deliver

on those targets, but what we are not leading the world in yet and the thing we need tojudge not leading the world in yet and the thing we need to judge the government on now is delivery against those targets. it is implementation, developing the detailed policies, rolling those out, giving businesses a chance to invest, giving people a chance to respond in the choices they make. we are great at setting targets but we need to back those with delivery. now we are at a point where we need to act, we need to see a real response on the ground and we have done a detailed assessment of what is happening there and what we find is happening there and what we find is actually there is only about 40% of the emission reduction the government is targeting that we have credible plans for at the moment. there is may be another quarter we might get with a fair wind but there is over a third that is at risk and there are some things like installation of homes which we don't have any policy for at all. that is simply not good enough at this point and it needs to change rapidly. you

sa it and it needs to change rapidly. you say it needs — and it needs to change rapidly. you say it needs to _ and it needs to change rapidly. you say it needs to change, some of the targets internationally were set at the glasgow summit of countries. since then the world has changed a bit. russia has invaded ukraine, energy prices are going up, there is a cost of living crisis, there is rising inflation, it might be that people now have other priorities on their mind, they might know how important climate change is but at the moment they are trying to get by. how big an influence is that? those actually are other reasons to do the things we were already recommending. if you want to cut your energy bills, what better way to do it than by inserting your home, by using your energy more efficiently. if you want to cut your energy inputs, what better way of doing it by switching to home—grown renewable energy. the net zero programme is absolutely a programme that will help us with the energy

challenges we face today and that is why we use that word shocking to describe the gap on energy efficiency. it is shocking for climate change but also shocking when people are crying out for help with their energy bills. tell when people are crying out for help with their energy bills.— with their energy bills. tell us about how _ with their energy bills. tell us about how insulation - with their energy bills. tell us about how insulation has - with their energy bills. tell us - about how insulation has changed where you live. i about how insulation has changed where you live.— about how insulation has changed where you live. i have gone and put loft insulation _ where you live. i have gone and put loft insulation in _ where you live. i have gone and put loft insulation in my _ where you live. i have gone and put loft insulation in my house, - where you live. i have gone and put loft insulation in my house, i- loft insulation in my house, i rolled it out where i can i topped it up further and i live in a house that was built in 2006, so it should have been built to a better standard thanit have been built to a better standard than it was but it was built with a pretty low level of loft insulation. i have topped that in and that has helped me reduce my bills. i have adopted an electric car which cuts my motoring costs when i do have to drive. these are changes that help the climate but they can absolutely help to reduce our own emissions as well and then, i am on thejourney now towards a heat pump, towards higher levels of efficiency in the

home but that is a difficultjourney at the moment and that is one of the things we pointed to for the government to do. to help people with what is often quite a difficult journey, particularly with their homes. quite easy to go out and buy an electric car, much more difficult to do a proper retrofit of your home and to switch to a heat pump. the technology is there, the costs are falling, the policy is not there yet and crucially, the advice service to help people through this process has not been good enough. that should be a realfocus not been good enough. that should be a real focus for the future, or really major advice that gives people simpler solutions that they can implement quickly and hold their hand through the process of the more difficult things that they might need to do. difficult things that they might need to do— difficult things that they might need to do. ., ,, i. ., ., need to do. thank you for 'oining us. breaking news about the parliamentary investigation into whether or not borisjohnson misled

parliament. news broken to us by reuters. the committee is seeking witness information which would enable it to determine whether or not the prime minister misled the house. the committee says that those who wish to submit evidence would have untiljuly the 29th to do so. the labour party lawmaker harriet harman would chair the committee during its inquiry. this relates back to whether or not the prime minister is accused of misleading parliament when he said that no lawbreaking took place during those downing street parties during lockdown, following the sue gray report. this is a different investigation into whether or not the prime minister misled parliament. we will continue to keep you up—to—date with that. for many towns and villages, tourism is vital to the local economy, but it can come at a cost to those who live there. a bbc investigation has found

that the number of holiday lets in england has risen by 40% in the past three years, and there are concerns locals are being pushed out of some areas as a result. helen catt reports from the north devon coast. they come to croyde for the sea, the sand and the surf. tourism isn'tjust welcome in north devon, it's vital. for us, it's everything. it's literally how we operate as a business. we pretty much only open through march until the end of october, that is the tourist season. there is nothing here in winter, really. the pandemic boosted staycationing in places like this, and the number of holiday lets has grown, too — by too much, say some locals. if we are standing here, give me a sense of scale, looking down this road. looking down this road, you have three holiday lets there, a further two there. there a further three right in front of us. charlotte bater grew up in the village of georgeham, a mile or so from croyde. she and her children have moved back in with her parents because she can't find anywhere to rent. it does put a whole stop on your life. you can't plan anything. everything comes back to, "well,

we don't know where we're going to be living." charlotte's friend, emma, set up a campaign group after she too was served with a no eviction notice. ijust think it's really unfair that in an area where you've grown up, and you've lived, you've been part of the community, you've been to school, all your friends and family are here, to feel that you're being pushed outjust so somebody can have a holiday or somebody can have a second home just doesn't really resonate as fair. figures obtained by the bbc show that here in north devon, the number of holiday lets went up by a third in a period of three years, up to november last year. but this isn'tjust an issue that's facing the south west of england. other tourist hotspots across england are facing similar issues. in scarborough, which includes the resort of whitby, the number of holiday lets rose by 43%. 0n the isle of wight, the number went up by 39%. and they have been significant rises in norfolk, including in great yarmouth, where there was an increase of 44%.

high saturations of holiday lets can also have a knock on for local businesses, like here in keswick, in the lake district. there aren't enough local people here to work in businesses, because they could live here. if they can't live here, they can't work here. the community is crumbling, and it's a crisis. the government is launching a long promised call for evidence on the impact of holiday lets in england. there's many benefits to having more accommodation provision in the uk, so we want to get the right balance. and one of the options is to licence accommodation, you know, at one extreme. or we could end up doing nothing. and we want to get the evidence base together in order to decide what to do. the challenge for ministers will be finding a balance between harnessing the economic benefits without communities feeling like they're being washed away. helen catt, bbc news, north devon. now it's time for a look at the weather with chris fawkes.

we are looking at lots of showers this afternoon. but there will be some areas that dodged the showers altogether. south—west england they wind splashed together, that means most of the shower will form a inland areas of the south—west, leaving a few showers around coastal areas. not many showers across east anglia and the south—east but otherwise showers widespread today. overnight tonight a band of rain moves up from the south, affecting england, probably wales and getting into scotland by the end of the night. temperatures similar to recent nights, staying in double figures. tomorrow we start off with the rain affecting scotland, moving northwards through the day, some of it heavy. showers followed that feature, again widespread, heavy, thundery, slow—moving and temperatures at best reaching the low 20s.

this is bbc news, i'm james reynolds, and these are the latest headlines... nato leaders agree to significantly strengthen the alliance's own deterrence and defence capabilities while also pledging its unwavering support of ukraine against russia's invasion of the country. ukraine can count on us for as long as it takes. that comes as ukraine releases a video of the moment a russian missile struck a packed shopping centre in kremenchuk on monday, killing at least 18 people. "inspirational and unfalteringly brave." the duke and duchess of cambridge lead tributes to cancer campaigner, blogger and broadcaster dame deborah james, who died yesterday. a 29—year—old is charged

with murdering zara aleena in east london as she walked home from a night out on sunday morning. herfamily have paid tribute to her, saying she was pure of heart and a joy to all. our kelly could find he spent decades in prison. crucial talks about nato's future strategy are under way in spain, with leaders of the alliance calling for a united response to russia's invasion of ukraine. president biden has announced that the us will expand its military presence across europe with its forces strengthened across land, air and sea. let's cross live to madrid and my colleague, kasia madera.

welcome to madrid, where nato leaders have agreed the strategic concept, the blueprint for this alliance. it will guide, it will show how this defence alliance will work in the future together. it's a crucial document, only second to the treaty itself, signed in 1949, and of course leading to the creation of nato itself. nato leaders agreeing the strategic concept on wednesday and this is significant because it completely changes the strategic concept from 2010, when the landscape, security environment across this region, was very different. now today the leaders of nato are describing russia as the most significant and direct threat to allies' security and stability.

this is significant because if you compare to what was happening back in 2010, the last strategic concept for these member states, at that point, the russian president was actually present at the summit. vladimir putin was the prime minister at the time. so this is a completely different landscape whether allies clearly stating that russia is the most significant, most direct threat to allies. jens stoltenberg has always talked about the need for unity and strength and has said they will support ukraine, these countries will support ukraine, for as long as it takes. he was speaking just a little bit earlier on here in spain. president zelensky made — earlier on here in spain. president zelensky made clear _ earlier on here in spain. president zelensky made clear that - earlier on here in spain. president zelensky made clear that ukraine | zelensky made clear that ukraine relies _ zelensky made clear that ukraine relies on — zelensky made clear that ukraine relies on our continued support, and our message — relies on our continued support, and our message to him was equally clear~ _ our message to him was equally clear. ukraine can count on us for

as long _ clear. ukraine can count on us for as long as— clear. ukraine can count on us for as long as it — clear. ukraine can count on us for as long as it takes. allies will continue _ as long as it takes. allies will continue to provide major military and financial help and, today, leaders — and financial help and, today, leaders agreed to strengthen our support— leaders agreed to strengthen our support by agreeing a comprehensive assistance _ support by agreeing a comprehensive assistance package for ukraine. 30 assistance package for ukraine. sc jens assistance package for ukraine. ’ir jens stoltenberg assistance package for ukraine. 5r jens stoltenberg there, the secretary general of nato, who is actually taking on another year initially before the war started on the 25th of february, 2022, he was due to give up his position, but he will be staying on because there is a need for continuity when it comes to the aggressive attacks that russia is conducting on ukraine, so jens stoltenberg they're committing to supporting ukraine continuously. volodymyr zelensky was speaking earlier and saying ukraine need

support, they need $5 million a month to help the country get through. —— 5 billion. one thing thatis through. —— 5 billion. one thing that is also interesting is that china, something that had not been mentioned previously back in 2010, so a lot of new lines to look at that we will be analysing with our special guests throughout the day, but first of all we will catch up with our security, respondent because he has been speaking to the euro —— uk foreign secretary, liz truss. a show of unity for leaders of the world's most powerful military alliance. russia's invasion of ukraine has upended nato's plans and forced it to adopt new deterrence strategy. president biden is sending major us reinforcements to europe, including destroyers, warplanes and thousands of extra troops to romania. we're going to approve a new nato strategic concept and reaffirm the unity and determination of our alliance to defend every inch of nato territory.

and article 5 is sacrosanct, and we mean it when we say it — an attack against one is attack against all, every inch. nato is about to get two new members, finland and sweden, adding two modern militaries to the alliance after turkey dropped its opposition to theirjoining. russia had earlier warned there would be consequences. vladimir putin was hoping that he would be getting less nato on his western front as a result of his unprovoked, illegal invasion of ukraine. he's been proved completely wrong, he's getting more nato. this is a historic summit in many ways, but we've already got two new members coming in, finland and sweden, a huge step forward for our alliance. less than three years ago, french president macron suggested that nato was braindead. but russia's war on ukraine has galvanised this alliance and given it a new sense of purpose.

we meet in the midst of the mosti serious security crisis that we have faced since the second world war, and we see that allies are able - to demonstrate unity, l that we see an alliance which is responding - in a strong and unified way. the big buzzword at this nato summit is "unity" — all 30 nato members are keen to present a united front to show their support for ukraine and their condemnation of russia's invasion. but privately there are differences of opinion — not every country is prepared to stay the course and see all russian forces expelled from all of ukraine. there are others who will be prepared to settle for a compromise that sees an inconclusive end to this war. frank gardner, bbc news, madrid.

as frank was saying, it's those differences in opinion that keep coming through because if you think about it this is an alliance of 30 different nations, seem to be 32, all individual nations pulling in different ways but the importance of the strategic concept as it brings all of these nations together, reaffirms the values of nato, it reminds the direction and sets the agenda for the future of nato and that's why it is crucial to get absolutely right. the focus on the strategic concept in a moment that we will also focus on something else, this is the strong may take a strong nato thatjens stoltenberg has been really keen to emphasise because just last night turkey finally lifted its veto on the ability for fenland and also for sweden tojoin this ability for fenland and also for sweden to join this alliance, so turkey having decided that actually yes they feel they are ready now,

they have the agreements they need, but more specifically on what it is that turkey wanted and what they got, joined by a retired ambassador. it's really fascinating to see. you served as nato assistant secretary general, we are seeing how turkey has now lifted its veto so that these two countries, finland and sweden, canjoin. can you explain to us the thought process, what did turkey want, what did president began want in order to come to this decision? . . began want in order to come to this decision? , ., ., , ., decision? festival, there was no veto because — decision? festival, there was no veto because at _ decision? festival, there was no veto because at nato _ decision? festival, there was no veto because at nato there - decision? festival, there was no veto because at nato there are i veto because at nato there are consultations and after consultations and after consultations they will reach a decision on a consensus basis. —— first of all. so the trilateral memorandum that the three countries agreed on provides a good basis, the

three countries to cooperate amongst each other, to address the legitimate can security concerns of turkey. terrorism, as you may have seenin turkey. terrorism, as you may have seen in the new strategic concept, is one of the main threats that nato fenced —— faces, one is russia, the other is terrorism, so in addressing the concerns of turkey in the fight against terrorism, allies should be eyeball to eyeball so that they can work together. and i think yesterday's agreement is an important one, paving the way for this to countries in their accession process to move ahead, and i'm very happy for that. you process to move ahead, and i'm very happy for that-— happy for that. you are talking about a consensus _ happy for that. you are talking about a consensus that - happy for that. you are talking about a consensus that other. about a consensus that other countries need to agree, they need

to have that agreement to enable other countries to come to join this alliance, but, when it comes to turkey, this particular instance, did they hold nato hostage in terms of their demands? i did they hold nato hostage in terms of their demands?— of their demands? i don't think that that is fair or _ of their demands? i don't think that that is fair or irrelevant. _ of their demands? i don't think that that is fair or irrelevant. don't - that is fair or irrelevant. don't forget, in 2008, at a book or a summit meeting, where i was the turkish ambassador to nato, we were expecting three countries to become nato members, but one allied country chose to block the decision, and that country waited for 12 years, it is not macedonia, in order to become a member of nato. —— bucharest. that's why we are talking about a few weeks after the application of finland and sweden and, if legitimate concerns of an allied country cannot be addressed, of

course, until such a time that there is an agreement, the process continues. i am glad that with the hard work of three countries there is now a solid basis for cooperation in the future and there is a mechanism that only commitments enumerators in this memorandum but also a mechanism showing how they are cooperating together. thank also a mechanism showing how they are cooperating together.— are cooperating together. thank you so much for — are cooperating together. thank you so much for speaking _ are cooperating together. thank you so much for speaking to _ are cooperating together. thank you so much for speaking to us, - so much for speaking to us, especially with that perspective in terms of what turkey decided, not a veto, but are actually agreeing to these two countries joining this alliance and of course that was always going to take a little bit of time as well. but there's consensus is important, and again that something thatjens stoltenberg has been keen to emphasise that, although we talk a lot about article five of nato, when van ali comes

under attack, all allies come under attack, they all come together, but also article four where any concerns that individual members have they can bring them to the nato table, it is exactly what we have seen with turkey. let's focus on the strategic concept itself. i will bring in a former tank commander of the british army, now head of risk assessment. justin, you have been poring over the details of the new strategic concept and of course a huge focus is on ukraine, on supporting ukraine. just talk us through what strikes you initially when it comes to their strategic concept? we have a few new items as well. i will to their strategic concept? we have a few new items as well.— a few new items as well. i will pick u . a few new items as well. i will pick u- on a few new items as well. i will pick up on that — a few new items as well. i will pick up on that first. _ a few new items as well. i will pick up on that first. there _ a few new items as well. i will pick up on that first. there is _ a few new items as well. i will pick up on that first. there is not - a few new items as well. i will pick up on that first. there is not a - up on that first. there is not a huge amount of mention on ukraine specifically in the document which was interesting in the drafting

phase itself, there are not a lot of mentions of russia. i think the reference to russia is the clearest threat to european security. i think it is something that will face opposition from some members, that was overruled and that in itself shows a drive forward in the alliance to commit to that. and within the strategic concept as well, it is a document produced roughly every decade. we have seen a mention of china, something that nato is looking at, and we have seen talk of climate change, something that will affect security and stability, which i completely agree is a longer—term problem that will not go away and will have security consequences, so the document is a large, but that section that focuses on russia is notable and the immediate threat posed. to set the context. ~ . immediate threat posed. to set the context. ~ , ., , immediate threat posed. to set the context. ~ . ~ immediate threat posed. to set the context. ~ , . context. well this last? when you look at the _

context. well this last? when you look at the 2010 _ context. well this last? when you look at the 2010 strategic - context. well this last? when you look at the 2010 strategic concept it feels incredibly out of date. the whole security environment has changed beyond recognition, but is this focused enough, forward facing enough, to last the duration? because these things have to lasting they have to keep bringing nato member states together as and when they have disagreements, as any organisation of such a large number of countries inevitably has. yes. of countries inevitably has. yes, what time _ of countries inevitably has. yes, what time i _ of countries inevitably has. yes, what time i can _ of countries inevitably has. yes, what time i can you _ of countries inevitably has. yes, what time i can you take? - of countries inevitably has. yes, what time i can you take? you l of countries inevitably has. yes what time i can you take? you must develop your strategy otherwise it's no good and if you have this long term fixed period, it might make the strategy unfit for purpose in the face of a changing risk environment and that's clearly what has happened to us of the last decade. we have seen the escalation of crimea onwards, the donbas, the increasing change in western stability and

increasing impacts of democracy, technological evolutions and frankly all those things will only get faster, so there is may be a suggestion that the cycle of reviews for this is too long, but you have to have some form of strategic goal otherwise you don't have anything and the challenge for nato, up to 32 countries, compared to a coalition formed from a single purpose, there is one purpose, everyone can agree is one purpose, everyone can agree on is one purpose, everyone can agree on the purpose. for an organisation like nato, over 70 years old, it will be 100 years old at some point, you have got to think about that longer time frame, more complex environments, so for a short document, it has to cover a huge amount of ground and then get 30 nations to agree on the contents and sign off on the face of a high—pressure environment. the process started before the situation changed with the invasion of

ukraine, so with those challenges in place it needs to be more adaptable, we can't make it such a rigid framework that it hinders the ability to evolve, especially in the face of this very complex threat environment, and some other things being talked about in terms of rearmament, some of the things ben wallace in the uk has said, we talk about the middle of this decade and there's a feeling among some that we need to be doing sooner in order to respond to this threat, so even though these welcome changes there is this very immediate task of catching up, really, on the 12 years where a strategy and situation become increasingly little. this become increasingly little. as alwa s, become increasingly little. as always, really good to get your assessment of this. as we digest the details of this new strategic concept. formertank details of this new strategic concept. former tank commander there from the british army. as we digest the details, the things that do stand out is that russia is for the first time described as the most

significant, the most direct threat, to ally security and stability and this reflects the deteriorating relationship with russia which, if you compare to what was happening the last time the strategic concept was drawn up, when this alliance was talking about partnerships with russia, a very big change, climate change and china as well, also making... being mentioned in this new strategic statement that has been decided and agreed upon by this alliance of 30 nations here in madrid. we will continue to keep you right up to date without summit in madrid as things develop, but in the meantime we will continue to bring you the rest of news. harriet harman has led to chair investigating whether or not the prime minister deliberately misled parliament. let's bring in our political

correspondent. we have said that harriet harman will be the chair, but as has been decided? ladle harriet harman will be the chair, but as has been decided? we also know that the _ but as has been decided? we also know that the committee - but as has been decided? we also know that the committee is - but as has been decided? we also know that the committee is now l know that the committee is now calling for evidence from individuals to come forward and tell the inquiry what they know about boris johnson's the inquiry what they know about borisjohnson's movements, what he may have done or nine about, and the time surrounding those events in downing street when we now know that lockdown rules were broken, not least because the fixed penalty notice issued to those working in number 10 and other government buildings, and the committee has said their evidence sessions, we don't yet know if they will be held in public, but they are expected to begin in the autumn, so we are looking ata begin in the autumn, so we are looking at a fairly long investigation here, the work is just getting under way now and, as you say, harriet harman, the former deputy leader of the labour party, has been elected as the chair of this committee, its made up of throw

conservative mps, two labour, one snp, the former chair chris bryant stepped back from his role, having made plenty of public criticism of borisjohnson, he recused himself from this inquiry, and is now beginning its work. they have a very important and i think a very difficultjob to do because they are looking into whether borisjohnson misled parliament and in doing that they need to establish whether he deliberately misled parliament with his statements about no rules having been broken and guidance and was being followed at all times in downing street during the pandemic, thatis downing street during the pandemic, that is a tricky thing to do but, if it does end up being the case, then the expectation would be on boris johnson to resign. this the expectation would be on boris johnson to resign.— johnson to resign. this witness information _ johnson to resign. this witness information evidence, - johnson to resign. this witness information evidence, are - johnson to resign. this witness | information evidence, are these the same witnesses that soon grey spoke to when she was looking at those

only what happened, that will be informed by a metropolitan police report on the report by sue gray into an abyss, but also into establishing what mrjohnson knew and when because he has already said his previous statements were found to have been not accurate, but he made them in all sincerity at the time, believing them to be true. thank you so much. ukraine says russia fired eight missiles at a city in the south of the country, killing three people in a residential building. it comes as president zelensky released cctv of the moment a missile struck at a shopping centre in kremenchuk — an attack which killed at least 18 people on monday. he said it was a deliberate strike designed to kill as many people as possible. from kyiv, joe inwood has sent this report. it is hard to deny — this cctv footage clearly shows the missile that struck a shopping centre in kremenchuk in mid—flight.

compare that to the russian version of events. "detonation of stored western weapons and ammunition caused a fire," the spokesman says, "in a nearby non—functioning shopping mall." but analysis of the footage by open—source investigators has proved it was a direct hit on the amstor complex. the tower and container can be seen here and here on recent satellite imagery. the shopping centre is visible in both. there are a number of other features identified by the investigators. president zelensky maintains it was a terrorist act. translation: the russian missile hit this location - precisely, deliberately. it is clear those were the orders given. they wanted to kill as many people as possible in a peaceful city, in an ordinary shopping mall. as the clean—up continues, the remnants of destroyed shops are everywhere.

as well as denying it was a missile responsible for this devastation, russia also claims the centre was not in use when it struck. the number of victims suggests that is not true. translation: it's - terrible beyond words. how many people were there? it was rush hour, people were returning from work. lots of shops, there were always a lot of people in amstor. the british ministry of defence has since said there is a realistic possibility was intended to hit a nearby infrastructure target — but missed, with devastating consequences for the people of kremenchuk. in this war, russia has often been accused of lying — rarely has it been so clearly demonstrated. joe inwood, bbc news, kyiv.

how kelly used managers, aides and sycophants and all sorts to get fans and aspiring artists and trap them into this web of abuse where he controlled their lies, he was also charged with racketeering, that is an aggressive charge and usually only apply to mob leaders but, in this context, it refers to what kelly did was an enterprise involving people and his entourage to basically recruit young girls and women to engage in illegal sex and jazz pornography and he is described as the leader of the enterprise, he was also convicted of violating an anti—sex trafficking act which involves transporting miners. anti-sex trafficking act which involves transporting miners. thank ou so involves transporting miners. thank you so much — involves transporting miners. thank you so much for— involves transporting miners. thank you so much forjoining _ involves transporting miners. thank you so much forjoining us. - now it's time for a look at the weather with chris. hello again. we're looking at lots of showers this afternoon, some of them turning heavy and thundery, quite slow—moving as well. but there will be some areas that

dodge the showers altogether. now, across southwest england, we've got a convergence zone where the winds kind of bash together. that means most of the showers will form across inland areas of the southwest, leaving relatively few showers around coastal areas in the southwest. that's one area that could stay dry. not many showers across east anglia in the southeast, but otherwise showers and thunderstorms are going to be quite widespread today. overnight tonight, a band of rain moves up from the south, affecting certainly england, probably wales, and getting into scotland by the end of the night. temperatures similar to those of recent nights, staying into double figures. now, tomorrow morning, we start off with that same band of rain affecting scotland, moving its way northwards through the day, some of the rain heavy for a time. showers follow that feature. again, the showers widespread, heavy, thundery, slow—moving, a bit of hail mixed in, and temperatures at best reaching the low 20s.

in recognition of her tireless fundraising. she had been receiving end—of—life care at home. i'm joined now by professor peterjohnson, national clinical director for cancer at nhs england. your thoughts on this day. i'm terribly sad. — your thoughts on this day. tn terribly sad, obviously. we have lost and we lost a very vital person. all the treatment that she went through with huge courage and determination and from the support we are doing in the nhs made a massive difference and the discussion about the symptoms of bowel cancer and how people should be looked after what people can do to help each other. very sad and thinking about all those who loved her today and how did you notice the fact that she made it easier for people to talk about the symptoms? she was out there, wasn't she. she

was upfront about all the things that people don't usually like to talk about. like blood and bowel habits and things like that. she was fantastic on tv and i the great podcast and she was just a really lively and engaged thoughtful person made a difference and will have made a difference to so many lives by the work that she has done. but a difference to so many lives by the work that she has done.— work that she has done. but you would do if _ work that she has done. but you would do if they _ work that she has done. but you would do if they listen _ work that she has done. but you would do if they listen to - work that she has done. but you would do if they listen to her - work that she has done. but you | would do if they listen to her say and be tested and think they need to go to the doctor but in perhaps a bit scared? she go to the doctor but in perhaps a bit scared?— go to the doctor but in perhaps a bit scared? she did a great 'ob of encouraging i bit scared? she did a great 'ob of encouraging people i bit scared? she did a great 'ob of encouraging people to h bit scared? she did a great job of encouraging people to think- bit scared? she did a great job of| encouraging people to think about their bodies and if you noticed blood in your hoop, painting your stomach and changes in the bowel habits that people are use to, all of these things, she was really clear that we should not hold back to seeing a doctor, we should make sure we look for the care that we need, get diagnosed take part in

this programme and really put ourselves forward. i think moving the dialogue away from the idea that if you have cancer, it's all plus business to actually come if you got cancer, can be caught early, there's a huge amount that can be done in many people can be cured and some people, such as tabora, even if they cannot be cured, can have many years of life from the treatments that are not available and can do many things with the time that they do have as a socie , with the time that they do have as a society. we — with the time that they do have as a society, we squirm we talk about blood, cancer, to and the like. {lister blood, cancer, to and the like. over the years. — blood, cancer, to and the like. over the years. we _ blood, cancer, to and the like. over the years, we have _ blood, cancer, to and the like. or the years, we have become more open and more frank about what our bodies are like, what they do and what they need. and that will save our lives. and if we can get the help that we need when something is not right, that make such a big difference in millions of people are alive today who had a cancer diagnosis have been

effectively treated because they were prepared to do that. yes, it's uncomfortable and no elements talking about these things but i think we are getting better at it and people like to borrow really like that and she really did move the dial on this. —— deborah. a man has appeared in court charged with the murder of 35—year—old zara aleena in east london. jordan mcsweeny has also been charged with attempted rape and robbery and was remanded in custody after appearing at thames magistrates court. zara aleena was found suffering head injuries, in the early hours of sunday, and died in hospital later that morning. in a tribute, herfamily described her as "a joy to all of us" and said their loss was "irreparable". our home affairs correspondent daniel sandford has more. zara aleena's family this morning described her as a carefree spirit with the most caring heart. they talked about her glorious laughter and her tiny frame, which embodied a passionate spirit and indomitable energy. they said she walked everywhere.

case and a court of appeal hearing and said that there should be a high court hearing. reporter met creatively is outside the court of appeal and matt, we have gone through a lot of twists and turns of the story, what if you can help us to understand exactly what is being decided and where that leaves the 12—year—old and his family. the 12-year-old and his family. the court room _ 12-year-old and his family. the court room today _ 12—year—old and his family. tte court room today was absolutely full of emotions, full of family wearing purple ribbons, including archie's mum knows the 7th of april when he went home to their house in southend and they found archie langdon conscious on the floor with traumatic brain injuries. she believes he has taken part in some online challenger was rushed us up in hospital and then he was taken to hospital in london and put in a coma and it's from there that things have been getting very, very difficult because the doctors the hospital thought that archie was brain dead and they wanted to do some tests on his brainstem but the family

declined and so, it went to court and the court said, you can do these tasks but they were unable to do them in the end and so, what happened today was really a determining factor in whether the judges decision to declare archie dead on the 13th ofjune here was the right decision or whether more prominence should have been put on his best interests in this was what decided today, archie's mum said my son is still in there. he needs time to heal. we have tens of thousands of people signing a petition asking archie to have more time and the three appealjudges to date, they decided that the first judge three appealjudges to date, they decided that the firstjudge should have had more prominence on archie's best interest and as a result, they have allowed the appeal in the case will be remitted to anotherjudge on the 11th ofjuly. will be remitted to another 'udge on the nth «mi the 11th ofjuly. thank you so much for 'oinint the 11th ofjuly. thank you so much forjoining us- _

finland and sweden have received formal invitations to join the alliance after turkey dropped its opposition. russia has described nato's expansion as destabilising. the nato—secretary general, jens stoltenberg, says ukraine can rely on nato support for long as it takes. let's cross live to madrid and my colleague, kasia madera. it will make when russia rode its military into this rode its military into this on rode its military into this on the rode its military into this on the 24th of february, the best response was swift, total condemnations in the street resolve. there have been previous morning. after russia's annexation of crimea into as of 14, the alliance agreed to boost its defence in this place is being most at risk should russia decide to attack western europe. the main concern was the baltic state of estonia, latvia, lithuania and also poland were native calls and enhanced forward presence was created in these countries made up of four multinational battle groups in just of four multinational battle groups injust under 5000 of four multinational battle groups in just under 5000 troops. it was concerned that this was not enough to act as a deterrent against russia. there were also arguments that permanently stationing nato troops, especially in any real numbers would break an old agreement

made with moscow in 1997. in the premise invasion of ukraine this year spurred nato into taking further action to defend members of the alliance. in march, allied leaders agreed to establish form more multinational battle groups thousands of nato commanding soldiers stationed in slovakia, hungary and bulgaria north romania. so, it means that the battle groups of troops stationed from the baltic the black sea. so, that is the geography of europe and their key weapon systems that nato is increasingly deploying. petri missile systems capable of shooting down incoming ballistic missiles have recently been sent to poland and slovakia. nato's most modern aircraft, is being deployed as quickly as possible and nato led naval forces are its norway, the baltic sea and the mediterranean. they include ships such as the queen elizabeth class

aircraft. and if vladimir putin was hoping his attack on ukraine would take advantage of a weaker nato, many observers have concluded that the invasion that's in fact created the invasion that's in fact created the exact opposite. but nato does next is the question. what nato does next is the question. why make the brazilian president has taken a dubious stance towards the war in ukraine in the country voted against russia in the un general assembly back in march on the resolution that condemned the invasion but criticise sanctions against russia and maintains what he calls a neutral position. he visited russia just a few days before the invasion and extra brazilians, many

of them have never heard about nato before internet searches about the western military alliance searched after the conflict started. that being said, brazil is been deeply divided socially and politically for almost a decade now and the invasion of ukraine has beenjust one more issue to polarise opinions around here and something nato is overstepped its its prerogatives and others is a 21st—century tyrant. many feel the economic impact of the war in brazil, a country with double—digit inflation and rising poverty. double-digit inflation and rising hove . ., poverty. reporting from south africa. earlier— poverty. reporting from south africa. earlier this _ poverty. reporting from south africa. earlier this year, - poverty. reporting from south africa. earlier this year, south j africa. earlierthis year, south africa's president claimed nato for the war in ukraine and said he would resist all calls to condemn russia. his comments created deep divisions and variations here. the countries decision to abstain and a vote on the un general assembly on the resolution to condemn russia's

invasion of ukraine was highly criticised by opposition politicians and ordinary south africans. and many others agreed with the president. those that support russia said they were fed up with unjust wars and with western aggression over the years and believe russia is bringing balance. others say nato was in breach of agreements with russia concerning buffer zones between moscow and nato countries and therefore see vladimir putin as being assertive in acting in self—defense. being assertive in acting in self-defense.— being assertive in acting in self-defense. �* ,, a ., self-defense. i'm steven mcdonald invasion, self-defense. i'm steven mcdonald invasion. people — self-defense. i'm steven mcdonald invasion, people have _ self-defense. i'm steven mcdonald invasion, people have been - self-defense. i'm steven mcdonaldj invasion, people have been hearing guite _ invasion, people have been hearing quite a _ invasion, people have been hearing quite a lot— invasion, people have been hearing quite a lot about nato. every night on the _ quite a lot about nato. every night on the flagship television news, the communist party delivers the line to the population. and we hear stories about— the population. and we hear stories about the _ the population. and we hear stories about the war in ukraine, it is the west _ about the war in ukraine, it is the west there — about the war in ukraine, it is the west. there is a remarkably high proportion— west. there is a remarkably high proportion of stories in this country— proportion of stories in this country dedicated to blaming the

helen catt reports from the north devon coast. they come to croyde for the sea, the sand and the surf. tourism isn'tjust welcome in north devon, it's vital. for us, it's everything. it's literally how we operate as a business. we pretty much only open through march until the end of october, that is the tourist season. there is nothing here in winter, really. the pandemic boosted staycationing in places like this, and the number of holiday lets has grown, too — by too much, say some locals. if we are standing here, give me a sense of scale, looking down this road. looking down this road, you have three holiday lets there, a further two there. there a further three right in front of us. charlotte bater grew up in the village of georgeham, a mile or so from croyde. she and her children have moved back in with her parents because she can't find anywhere to rent. it does put a whole stop on your life. you can't plan anything. everything comes back to, "well, we don't know where we're going to be living." charlotte's friend, emma,

set up a campaign group after she too was served with a no eviction notice. ijust think it's really unfair that in an area where you've grown up, and you've lived, you've been part of the community, you've been to school, all your friends and family are here, to feel that you're being pushed outjust so somebody can have a holiday or somebody can have a second home just doesn't really resonate as fair. figures obtained by the bbc show that here in north devon, the number of holiday lets went up by a third in a period of three years, up to november last year. but this isn'tjust an issue that's facing the south west of england. other tourist hotspots across england are facing similar issues. in scarborough, which includes the resort of whitby, the number of holiday lets rose by 43%. on the isle of wight, the number went up by 39%. and they have been significant rises in norfolk, including in great yarmouth, where there was an increase of 44%. high saturations of holiday lets

can also have a knock on for local businesses, like here in keswick, in the lake district. there aren't enough local people here to work in businesses, because they could live here. if they can't live here, they can't work here. the community is crumbling, and it's a crisis. the government is launching a long promised call for evidence on the impact of holiday lets in england. there's many benefits to having more accommodation provision in the uk, so we want to get the right balance. and one of the options is to licence accommodation, you know, at one extreme. or we could end up doing nothing. and we want to get the evidence base together in order to decide what to do. the challenge for ministers will be finding a balance between harnessing the economic benefits without communities feeling like they're being washed away. helen catt, bbc news, north devon. the queen has held a meeting with scotland's first minister nicola sturgeon— a day after the scottish leader set out plans to push for a second independence referendum to break away from the united kingdom.

the snp has said it wants the queen to remain as head of state if scotland becomes independent. the queen, who has missed several public events in recent months due to difficulties with her mobility, has been seen smiling and watching events during the annual "royal week" inscotland. now, it's time for a look at the weather with chris a lot of bricks of rain and so a damp start of the day and a great start in surrey. the band of rain it's been working its way in clearing out it is followed today by widespread showers and many of you will see a passing downpour, however there will be some places that will completely miss the showers and stay dry. cornwall could be one of those areas because below the shower is popping up anywhere today, cross a post england, we have convergence with the winds bash together and tell me that most of the showers form across and then leaving the coasts of north and south of

cornwall and devin with relatively few showers. so, you could touch the downpours there. he's tingly inside these or places that you bring up with fewer showers than other parts the uk. and generally high teens in the uk. and generally high teens in the west, low 20s and the best of the west, low 20s and the best of the sunshine in the east but then on the satellite picture, you should see this lump of cloud that should be coming into this evening and overnight and that is going to be bringing widespread outbreaks of rain from the south across england and wales and probably parts where crossing england to areas of scotland at the end of the night. some of the room be quite heavy at times and temperatures in the whole overnight and last night staying in the double figures. for thursday morning, we started for that rain across eastern scotland in a be a great start here, the rain quite heavy at times and it will again be followed by a day of sunshine and showers in the winds are light in the showers will be long—lived but also heavy thunder ore with a bit of

hail mixed in his will. temperatures into the 20s across eastern areas and in the west, again we're looking at temperatures in the high teens in the wind will start to pick up on friday we could again see some link dispose of rain across eastern scotland but otherwise, it shall read days but with stronger winds, the showers would be blown through that bit more quickly and temperatures similar and raging from the high teens to the low 20s. in the ascension pops out it won't feel too bad, i suppose. the ascension pops out it won't feel too bad, isuppose. in the ascension pops out it won't feel too bad, i suppose. in the weekend and next week, their sense of pressure will turn to rise and will eventually settling and she turned a little bit warmer with time as well. that is your latest.

welcome to madrid, welcome to the nato summit where these 30 countries that go together as the nato alliance have agreed their strategic concept. it is here, it has been agreed, and it is very different to what we had 12 years ago because, for the first time, the world leaders who make up the nato alliance have agreed that russia plays a direct threat to their security, and they have agreed this at the summit. if you compare that to what was happening 12 years ago at a summit in 2010 in lisbon, russia was actually at the summit, there were talks of a partnership, then russia's president, dmitry medvedev, was in talks with this alliance, now, of course, the security situation has very much changed following russia's attack on

ukraine on the 24th of february. jens stoltenberg continuously repeated that they will support ukraine, they will look out for ukraine, they will look out for ukraine, they will bolster and help ukraine, they will bolster and help ukraine in its push back and fight against russia's aggression and he spoke about reaffirming the commitment of the alliance to ukraine during this difficult time. allies will continue to provide major military and financial help and, today, leaders agreed to strengthen our support by agreeing a comprehensive assistance package for ukraine. this includes secure communications, fuel, medical supplies and body armour, and hundreds of anti—drone systems. over the longer term, we will help

ukraine transition from soviet—era equipment to modern nato equipment, and further strengthen its defence and further strengthen its defence and security institutions. fiend and security institutions. and continuously _ and security institutions. and continuously throughout this summit jens stoltenberg has been discussing how they want to show a united front, it's very important for this alliance of 30 different nations with individual needs and priorities to come together and support a country that is being so aggressively attacked by russia. jens stoltenberg is describing this as a bolstering of the defence because they also have to look out for their own defence as nato allies as well, here is another part of what he has been saying today at the summit in madrid. fiend what he has been saying today at the summit in madrid.— summit in madrid. and today leaders a . reed to summit in madrid. and today leaders agreed to strengthen _ summit in madrid. and today leaders agreed to strengthen our _ summit in madrid. and today leaders agreed to strengthen our support - summit in madrid. and today leaders agreed to strengthen our support by|

alliance... this means by the joining of these two countries it will mean that the border between nato and russia will double. this is not what president putin had wanted when he started that aggression against ukraine. let's bring in the retired major general. you were the senior intelligence officer at nato when russia invaded crimea. when you look at this strategic concept, compared to what we saw back in 2010, i wonder, compared to what we saw back in 2010, iwonder, does compared to what we saw back in 2010, i wonder, does yourfirst initial reflection, when you hear that russia is described as a direct threat to the alliance, what is your reaction? should we have had stronger back in 2010 when ultimately russia had in 2008 attacked georgia?— ultimately russia had in 2008 attacked georgia? thank you. i can

tell ou attacked georgia? thank you. i can tell you that _ attacked georgia? thank you. i can tell you that a _ attacked georgia? thank you. i can tell you that a lot _ attacked georgia? thank you. i can tell you that a lot of _ attacked georgia? thank you. i can tell you that a lot of my _ attacked georgia? thank you. i can tell you that a lot of my colleagues| tell you that a lot of my colleagues here in romania and especially on the eastern flank are seeing some kind of satisfaction that the whole alliance is able to see russia as it is. i can tell you for sure that, evenin is. i can tell you for sure that, even in 2005, when the late secretary of defence stopped in romania for a very short time, about what russia was doing in the black sea area, he immediately decided to invite my colleagues to washington, dc because he said, you need to convince my people because we are so focused on afghanistan and iraq that we don't have time to understand what russia is doing. so i can tell you for sure that, in 2011, when a concept was adopted, i'm sure that a lot of people, especially on the

eastern flank, were not very happy with that wording. i eastern flank, were not very happy with that wording.— with that wording. i wonder, then, in our with that wording. i wonder, then, in your opinion. — with that wording. i wonder, then, in your opinion, did _ with that wording. i wonder, then, in your opinion, did nato - with that wording. i wonder, then, in your opinion, did nato simply i in your opinion, did nato simply take their eye off the ball, where they willing to just overlook all of that? i was speaking earlier exclusively to poland's president and he said it's a very sad irony that poland and romania have been warning about russia for such a long time and it has taken this, this brutal, aggressive attack on ukraine, for this alliance to finally realise that russia is this threat. �* ., , ., , threat. i'm not trying to put the blame on _ threat. i'm not trying to put the blame on anyone. _ threat. i'm not trying to put the blame on anyone. i _ threat. i'm not trying to put the blame on anyone. ithink- threat. i'm not trying to put the blame on anyone. i think that, l threat. i'm not trying to put the i blame on anyone. i think that, for threat. i'm not trying to put the - blame on anyone. i think that, for a long time, especially in the west, there was this idea that, the more engagement with russia we have, especially in economic terms, the better we will be and we will have

russia as a strategic partner, but i still remember the time when i was still remember the time when i was still working in london as a defence attache, this was 2003, 2007, and the signs were already there where western interests in russia were affected. and their actions in the russian market were limited. so the signs were there, but people were still hoping. as you mentioned rightly, the invasion of georgia in 2008 was a wake—up call, but people did not want to realise what was happening there. they were happy that everything ended after one week, and i'm sure that a lot of people, especially in the west, were just looking to go back to business as usual. we hear, especially in the

black sea area, are watching very carefully. we are informing and sharing our intelligence with our partners and allies. but i think, unfortunately, it had to come to 2014 with crimea and later with eastern ukraine and now, the 24th of february this year, the full invasion of ukraine for people to realise what russia is really like. but i guess then, especially with your insight with the situation on the ground, when russia annexed crimea, you were the senior intelligence officer at nato, and you were saying that you were warning the alliance, you will warning the alliance, you will warning the alliance, you will warning the leadership. i wonder why there was not more done. of course, there was not more done. of course,

there was not more done. of course, there was a bolstering and more funds were spent and a lot of retraining of ukrainian troops, but ijust wonder then retraining of ukrainian troops, but i just wonder then perhaps retraining of ukrainian troops, but ijust wonder then perhaps nato should havejust ijust wonder then perhaps nato should have just taken ijust wonder then perhaps nato should havejust taken ukrainian, brought it in more directly into its alliance? tt brought it in more directly into its alliance? �* ., ., , , alliance? if i'm going to be very frank with _ alliance? if i'm going to be very frank with you _ alliance? if i'm going to be very frank with you about _ alliance? if i'm going to be very frank with you about what - alliance? if i'm going to be very - frank with you about what happened in 2014, i can tell you clearly that we had a wake—up approximately in april 2014, when we were briefing the north atlantic council, and when some of the ambassadors were reacting, we said, excuse me! what we are telling you what is agreed by all allied intelligence for a long time. i think it was a disconnect between the intelligence which was then available and let's say the

political and let's say the admin people who were not interested in looking at what the intelligence professionals were telling them. so the intelligence at that time were telling them exactly what russia was going to do but, as i mentioned before, the decision—makers were not ready to hear that, so when we told them exactly what was agreed for a long time, it was a big surprise for them and for us that they didn't know. �* . them and for us that they didn't know. �*, ., ,. ., them and for us that they didn't know. �* , ., ,. ., ., them and for us that they didn't know. �*, ., ,. ., ., ,., know. it's fascinating to get your insi . ht at know. it's fascinating to get your insight at those _ know. it's fascinating to get your insight at those times, _ know. it's fascinating to get your insight at those times, to - know. it's fascinating to get your insight at those times, to get. know. it's fascinating to get your. insight at those times, to get that insight, your experience from that time, thank you so much, a senior intelligence officer at nato when russia annexed crimea. we are focusing on what nato has been describing russia as, a strategic threat, but there are different

aspects within this strategic concept, they talk about climate change and china as well, there is a lot to digest and we will be doing so throughout a special coverage here on bbc news. joining me now is ian murray, labour mp for edinburgh south and the shadow secretary of state for scotland. at prime minister's questions today your deputy leader complained the prime minister was out of the country, he is at the nato summit. our commitment to nato is unshakeable, we have been saying that all the way through this crisis, but the point that angela rayner was making, he is out of the country at a time in his defence secretary is demanding more money and the prime minister says he will not get it, it is that conflict she was highlighting, so while he is at the summit, doing all the wonderful stuff that nato was doing, the defence secretary is demanding money he doesn't think he can get. the

ukrainian president is an extremely close ally of the british prime minister and has repeatedly praised him for the support provided to ukraine, i wonder how labour would do things differently if it was in power, given the fact the ukrainian president has said how much he appreciates the current approach. keir starmer has been incredibly clear that we back the government and what they are doing to assess ukraine, we back nato's approach to their commitment to ukraine, and we would be doing very similar things in government. what angela rayner was highlighting today was a conflict in government about domestic defence spending and how that argument should be happening round the cabinet table but is actually happening in public and brings it to sharp focus about the prime minister's authority. gieeh prime minister's authority. given ou are prime minister's authority. given you are the _ prime minister's authority. given you are the shadow— prime minister's authority. given you are the shadow scotland - you are the shadow scotland secretary, it important for us to ask you, should there be a new independence referendum? the answer to that is no- —

strike designed to kill as many people as possible. from kyiv, joe inwood has sent this report. it is hard to deny — this cctv footage clearly shows the missile that struck a shopping centre in kremenchuk in mid—flight. compare that to the russian version of events. "detonation of stored western weapons and ammunition caused a fire," the spokesman says, "in a nearby non—functioning shopping mall." but analysis of the footage by open—source investigators has proved it was a direct hit on the amstor complex. the tower and container can be seen here and here on recent satellite imagery. the shopping centre is visible in both. there are a number of other features identified by the investigators. president zelensky maintains it was a terrorist act. translation: the russian missile hit this location - precisely, deliberately. it is clear those

were the orders given. they wanted to kill as many people as possible in a peaceful city, in an ordinary shopping mall. as the clean—up continues, the remnants of destroyed shops are everywhere. as well as denying it was a missile responsible for this devastation, russia also claims the centre was not in use when it struck. the number of victims suggests that is not true. translation: it's - terrible beyond words. how many people were there? it was rush hour, people were returning from work. lots of shops, there were always a lot of people in amstor. the british ministry of defence has since said there is a realistic possibility the missile was intended to hit a nearby infrastructure target but missed, with devastating consequences for the people of kremenchuk. in this war, russia has often

been accused of lying — rarely has it been so clearly demonstrated. joe inwood, bbc news, kyiv. buckingham palace source says that donations totalling 3 million euros were given to prince charles by the former qatari prime minister, there is no suggestion the payments were illegal and clarence howe said all correct procedures were followed. —— clarence house. let's speak to our royal correspondent, sarah campbell. they spoke on the sunday times at the weekend and reported that between 2011 and 2015 there were these meetings between prince charles and the former prime minister of qatar. and in the course of those meetings at least one of them, large amounts of cash, were

personally handed over to the prince of wales to be given to charitable funds, charitable donations. this is a lot of money, clearly, some of it reportedly in fortnum & mason bags and totalling something in the region of 3 million euros. lethal and totalling something in the region of 3 million euros. what has been said today? _ region of 3 million euros. what has been said today? this _ region of 3 million euros. what has been said today? this was - region of 3 million euros. what has been said today? this was a - region of 3 million euros. what has| been said today? this was a briefing we had talking _ been said today? this was a briefing we had talking about _ been said today? this was a briefing we had talking about royal _ been said today? this was a briefing j we had talking about royal accounts. the royal source was asked about these reports of the weekend and gave a fulsome answer. first of all he said the money was immediately handed over to charities to allow them to decide the best course of action to either accept it or not, and they did accept it, and according to their creditors were the correct processes were followed, and the second point about the prince himself, there has been a lot of criticism in the press since the story broke, questioning his judgment, dealing with such large donations, and in russell said the prince operates on advice and that situations and context change over the years, he said, this has not

happened since, it would not happen again, that was then, this is now. so in a sense a clear acceptance this did happen but it would not happen again, and it really echoes the comments of the ceo of the princess charity who told the bbc that the optics of accepting so much cash now do not look good but at the time it was not uncommon for wealthy people who live in the middle east to use large amounts of cash and more recently they have money—laundering regulations that make it likely that such amounts would not be accepted. in terms of illegality, there are no rules against making cash donations to charity but the charity commission said it will consider the reports and decides whether it needs to take any action or lodge a formal review. court of appealjudges have ruled that a high courtjudge should reconsider the case of archie battersbee and decide whether it is in his best interests

for life—support treatment to end. a high courtjudge recently concluded, on the balance of probabilities, that 12—year—old archie was dead and ruled that doctors could lawfully stop providing treatment. three appealjudges analysed the case at a court of appeal hearing in london today and said there should be another high court hearing. our reporter, matt graveling, is outside the court of appeal. this story has had many twists and turns, many of them sad, over the last two and a half months because it was back on the 7th of april in southend—on—sea when archie's mum went back to their house and found archie unresponsive, on the floor, he had traumatic brain injury, she believes the taking part in some kind of online challenge, they rushed him to southend hospital and from there he was taken to london hospital and put in a coma, and it was from there that things started to get rather difficult. the doctors

felt that archie was brain dead, they asked the parents whether they could do some tests on his brain stem, they declined, so it came to the court. in the end, it was impossible to die those tests so mri scans were done instead, it came back to the court and on the 13th of june a judge he declared that she was dead, when no doctors felt they were able to declare him dead, and it was after this that archie's parents appealed on the ruling on the belief that the judge had wrongly approached what was in archie's best interests. we heard a lot about whether or not that definition of archie being dead against the priority of his best interests was in play and a little bit earlier those three appeal judges allowed the appeal, much to the delight of archie's family, they were all wearing these small purple ribbons dedicated to archie, and a little bit earlier his mum spoke to us outside the court. i little bit earlier his mum spoke to us outside the court.— us outside the court. i find that these judges — us outside the court. i find that these judges had _ us outside the court. i find that these judges had so _ us outside the court. i find that these judges had so much - us outside the court. i find that -

appeal, the case will be readmitted to a judge on the 11th ofjuly. thank you so much forjoining us. a verdict is expected today in the trial of 20 men accused of involvement in the islamist attacks in paris in november 2015. gunmen killed 130 people in locations across the french capital, including bars, restaurants, the national football stadium and the bataclan concert hall. the trial, in a specially—built courtroom, has lasted more than nine months. our correspondent, hugh schofield, is in paris. those on trial include a man, tell us about him. he was the so—called tenth man in all of this, if you remember, back on the night of the attack, there were three different groups who carried out attacks at the stadium and at the bataclan, then there was a tenth man. he esca ted, then there was a tenth man. tie: escaped, went back to belgian, was

later captured, and he is now the central accused because he was the one closest it's alleged to the plot, it is alleged that he intended to blow himself up in the centre of paris but failed to, either because his bomb failed to blow up because of the defect because he had a change of heart and it's still an enigma and a central enigma to this whole trial, in the middle of the mammoth trial, lasting nine months now, he gave his version and said that he had a change of heart and just could not face it, he could not face the carnage he was about to unleash, and dumped his jacket. of course, the prosecution questions that they think he said that only because it's a case for defence and we will have to see now, in the minutes and hours ahead this evening, what thejudges minutes and hours ahead this evening, what the judges decide, minutes and hours ahead this evening, what thejudges decide, he, like several others, face a lifetime

it was seen by them is a very therapeutic and important moment, the feeling among many of the survivors and victims' families is that though this has been arduous and painful, it has been worthwhile, and painful, it has been worthwhile, and as we come to the end of it they feel gratified that so much attention and hard work has been dedicated to bringing these people to justice and for it to be seen to be done and for it to be recorded as having been done.— be done and for it to be recorded as having been done. the r&b singer r kelly is due to be sentenced today after he was found guilty of running a scheme to sexually abuse women and children. in september last year, a jury convicted him of racketeering and eight counts of sex trafficking. he could face up to 25 years in prison. who's outside the us district court in new york, where the let's speak to our north america correspondent, nomia iqbal, who's outside the us district court in new york, where the sentencing is taking place. imight imagine i might imagine it will be rather lengthy here, but what a prosecutor

protectionism where they say that, because he was a successful black man, an era defining musician, he was arguably probably the most accomplished singer songwriter producer in r&b because of that accomplishment, there was this desire to protect him from anything bad, and he himself has cynically used this justified resentment that a lot of mistrust to trigger racial resentment as a way of protecting himself and take cover for his crimes, he has said he is being persecuted because he is black, so victims of his say that has been happening at the expense of black women in this country, but they have now had the final say, they were involved in the trial in which he

was eventually convicted, they will get to address him one more time in the court room behind me. know it's time for a look at the weather. were looking at lots of showers. some turning heavy and thundering. there will be some areas that dodge the showers altogether. southwest england will converge with the winds bash together that means most of the showers of form across inland areas of the southwest leaving a relatively few showers around coastal areas in the southwest and thatis coastal areas in the southwest and that is one area they could stay dry. not may showers in the southeast but otherwise, showers are going to be quite right spirit today. overnight tonight, the rain was in from the south affecting england and wales and getting into scotland by the end of the night. temperatures similar to those recent nights and staying at a double figures. tomorrow, we start over that same band of rain i can scotland to moving northwards through the day and some of the rain

investigating whether borisjohnson deliberately misled parliament over parties in downing street during lockdown. i spoke with our political correspondentjonathan blake — he explained what else has been decided by the commitee. the committee is for evidence from individuals to come forward until the inquiry what they know about boris johnson's the inquiry what they know about borisjohnson's movements, what he may have done, what he may have known about the time starting those events and down extreme and we now know that lockdown rules are broken and issues and prime ministers that the chancellors working in number ten and other government buildings and the committee has said that with sessions, we don't over there will be held in public but they are expected to begin autumn. i think you look at a fairly long—running investigation here but the work is just getting under way now as you say, the long serving former deputy

leader of the labour party has been elected by the chairman of this committee and the full conservative mps, two labour and one scottish national party, the former chair, chris brian stepped back from his role heavy made plenty of public criticism of borisjohnson over his handling of the party get a fair and he recused himself from this inquiry to use the westminsterjargon and is now beginning its work and they now have an important very difficultjob to do because they are looking into whether boris johnson to do because they are looking into whether borisjohnson misled parliament but in doing that, they would need to establish whether or not he deliberately misled parliament of the statements about no rules having been broken in guidance and rules having been followed at all times and downing street during the pandemic and that is a tricky thing to do. but if it doesn't of being the case, then the expectation would be on boris johnson to resign. there expectation would be on boris johnson to resign.— expectation would be on boris johnson to resign. are these going to be the same _

johnson to resign. are these going to be the same witnesses - johnson to resign. are these going to be the same witnesses that - johnson to resign. are these going to be the same witnesses that the | to be the same witnesses that the senior civil servant spoke to when she was looking at those parties. some of them could be but the committee at this stage in its investigation is issuing an open call and they're willing to consider hearing evidence anonymously and as long as individuals identities can be verified butjust to give you a bit more detail with the committee has set this afternoon is a lengthy meeting and they are seeking witness information and evidence in particular, including evidence of mr johnson's knowledge of the activities in downing street and the cabinet office under covid—19 regulations and up to now, the parties events where they broke the rules and any briefing given to inquiries made by mrjohnson related

to those events. you can see that that they're trying to build a picture of not only what happened, but i'll be informed by the metropolitan police reports and report by the senior civil servant at all of this but also trying to establish whatjohnson knew and when because they've already come to parliament and said that the previous statements were found to have been not accurate, but he made them mental sincerity at the time believing them to be true. police officers in scotland are to take the most disruptive action in more than 100 years by withdrawing their "goodwill" amid an ongoing pay dispute. the scottish police federation says they are taking this action in order to bring about a return to the negotiating table on a fair pay offer. the measures are expected to be the first in a series of protests over the pay offer. the action will start at 5pm on friday.

'inspirational and unfalteringly brave'— the duke and duchess of cambridge lead tributes to cancer campaigner, blogger and broadcaster dame deborah james who died yesterday. climate advisers have described as shocking the government's lack of commitment to insulating people's homes. the criticism is contained in the annual review of the climate change committee, which looks at the progress of ministers in curbing harmful emissions. the government said the uk is "leading the world" on climate change. the committee says unless policies are radically

improved, the government will need to try another tack — by persuading people to fly less and eat less meat. it criticises a lack of policy to insulate homes, saying households would be saving £40 a year on bills if previous insulation policies hadn't been scrapped. but it congratulates ministers on promoting electric cars — even though it says more charging points and more electric vans are needed.here's our environment and more electric vans are needed. here's our environment analyst, roger harrabin. welcome to the overheating world. temperatures breaking records. wildfires rage in california. injapan, people asked to sit in the dark so there is enough power for aircon. all the temperature records are boosted by emissions of carbon and methane from industrial society. the uk government is praised for having a plan to curb emissions across the whole of the economy, but there's a catch. the committee says a third of those plans look believable, a quarter might work with a bit of luck, but a third of plans

are so bad that the government looks likely to break its climate targets. the chair of the committee, lord deben, says we're not moving fast enough to avert catastrophic climate change. the government has got the right targets, it's setting a world lead in what it wants to do. but it has not yet got a programme in place which will deliver those targets for climate change and for reducing people's costs. campaigners have been protesting at the government's failure to insulate homes, which saves on bills as well as cutting emissions. the committee agrees the government's record on insulation is shocking. farms are the other big problem in the uk. the committee says the government is guilty of magical thinking that emissions from farming will be cut without new policies. and there's a warning

for the government. the committee says, if ministers can't cut emissions from farming and from homes, they're going to have to try other measures, like persuading people to eat less meat or fly less — and this government will not want to do that. it's not totally bad news. ministers are praised for promoting renewables to cut emissions and bring bills down. and electric cars are a success, even though there are not enough chargers. critics say the committee has given the government an easy ride. it's kind of ironic that the climate change committee has called this a progress report, when in reality it's clear that the government is making anything but progress towards achieving climate targets. the government says the uk is a world leader in cutting emissions. the committee agrees that says it's still not moving fast enough to keep the committee agrees but says it's still not moving fast enough to keep up with climate change. roger harrabin, bbc news.

this middleman position. able to potentially say to those producers listen, we cannot pass on all of the price rises to our customers the moment and that is what today's route is about. providing good publicity for tesco and being seen as a consumer champion because they have said today that they're in the business of keeping cost the shop and check. but they're saying that it's cost a lot more to make our products whether it's the ingredients, the jars of the plastic bottles they come in or the shops to the stores, the big megastores, so, their saying they have to charge more for that. there will be some kind of resolution to today's dispute because they are such popular products and people expect them and a lot of stores. but tesco are playing hardball to dates and customers of other options and other moves in the store. it is like there aren't any other bottles or baked beans in the stores. 50

them as customers. i think you so forjoining us. the duke and duchess of cambridge have paid tribute to dame deborahjames following what they called the 'heartbreaking' news of her death, at the age of 40. they described her as an inspirational and unfalteringly brave woman, whose legacy will live on. charities have also praised dame deborah's work as a cancer campaigner, blogger, and broadcaster. diagnosed with bowel cancer at the age ofjust 35, the fund she set up — which she called her bowel babe fund — to raise money for new treatments and research has now raised nearly 7 million pounds. helena wilkinson looks back at deborahjames' life and work. # i'm singing in the rain...# dame deborahjames faced her cancer diagnosis her own way, determined to keep smiling, despite gruelling treatment. her family have described her as an amazing wife, daughter, sister and mummy. they said deborah shared her experience with the world to raise awareness, break down barriers, challenge taboos and change

the conversation around cancer. even in her most challenging moments, her determination to raise money and awareness was inspiring. hello, and welcome to you, me and the big c. deborah spoke about living with cancer as co—host of a bbc podcast. i was pooing blood, and eventually was diagnosed with a 6.5cm tumour up my bum. and she gave hope to so many others. when i got my third diagnosis in 2019, she was the first person i called. emma campbell met deborah while they were both campaigning. that passion to raise awareness and spread awareness of early i detection of bowel cancer and also to show that, as long _ as there are options - and as long as there is hope, you can continue to find reasons to smile in life i and to look for the joy. last month, deborah revealed that she was receiving end of life care at her parents' home.

i have a really loving family who... ..i adore and couldn't... i honestly, like... they are just incredible. and, erm... all i knew i wanted was to come here and be able to relax, knowing that everything was ok. deborah continued to raise awareness during her last weeks. she launched the bowelbabe fund. this is when it reached its first million. cheering and applause. and she was honoured with a damehood, presented by prince william at deborah's parents' home. paying tribute today, the duke and duchess of cambridge said, "we are so sad to hear the heartbreaking news about dame deborah. our thoughts are with her children, herfamily and her loved ones.

deborah was an inspirational and unfalteringly woman, whose legacy will live her campaigning has already touched lives." without deborah, without seeing her on the tv three years ago, i don't think i would have had the courage to go and pick the telephone up to talk to the gp. i don't think i would have realised what the symptoms of bowel cancer were. and i actually don't think i would be here today. yesterday, deborah's family shared some of her final thoughts. "find a life worth enjoying, take risks, love deeply, have no regrets and always, always have rebellious hope. and, finally, check your poo — it could just save your life." dame deborahjames, who's died at the age of 40. now, it's time for a look at the weather.
