good morning. welcome to breakfast with nina warhust and sally nugent. our headlines today... and then there were eight — the remaining candidates for conservative leadership prepare to face their first round of voting. lam in iamina i am in a vegan food factory, seeing how businesses are bearing. new figures on the economy later on. trading standards says it's worried the market is being flooded with illicit vaping products, and the ease with which children can access them. sir mo farah is called an "inspiration" after revealing he was trafficked into the uk as a child and forced to work as a servant. i used to lock myself in our bathroom. and you cry every day. you cry every day and you tell them, "please, someone, get me out of here." no—one comes to you. with just 2a hours to go until the start of one of golf�*s biggest events, how tiger woods

is taking aim at more than scotland's historic st andrew's course. it may look more like an oil rig and an oil painting but this former north sea platform standing more than 100 feet high is being brought into weston—super—mare to become a major art installation. fix, into weston-super-mare to become a major art installation.— major art installation. a pleasantly warm day for— major art installation. a pleasantly warm day for many, _ major art installation. a pleasantly warm day for many, feeling - major art installation. a pleasantly warm day for many, feeling a - major art installation. a pleasantlyj warm day for many, feeling a good deal more comfortable than of late. it continues in the south east of england. the full forecast coming up here on breakfast. it's wednesday, the 13th ofjuly. our main story. conservative mps will cast their first vote today for who they want to replace borisjohnson as party leader. eight candidates are left in the race to become the next prime minister — they have to secure 30 votes in the first round to stay in the race, as our political correspondent, lone wells, reports. i can report that we have eight candidates, duly nominated. and then there were eight. one of these candidates

will be the next prime minister, having secured the backing of at least 20 tory mps. the former chancellor, rishi sunak, the attorney general, suella braverman, the foreign secretary, liz truss, the chancellor, nadhim zahawi, minister penny mordaunt and mps kemi badenoch, jeremy hunt and tom tugendhat. things heated up last night quite literally, as they crowded into a hot, sticky room in parliament one by one to encourage colleagues to back them today. please welcome rishi sunak. the former chancellor, rishi sunak, has the most tory mps backing him so far, securing endorsements from the cabinet ministers, dominic raab and grant shapps, among others. mr shapps earlier on had previously put himself forward. actually, i was delighted with the support that i got, but i also recognise that what we need more than anything else is somebody who can step straight into the role of prime minister in serious times.

there will be a lot of eyes on where other candidates lay their support if and when they are eliminated. morning, mrjavid. neither the former health secretary, sajid javid, who withdrew from the contest, or the home secretary, priti patel, who decided not to stand, have said who they will support instead. penny mordaunt has the second—highest number of tory mps publicly backing her. she's kept a lower profile so far, but launches her campaign this morning. but today, support for all candidates will be put to its first test. tory mps will vote this afternoon, and anyone with fewer than 30 votes will be eliminated. successive rounds continue, where the candidate with the fewest votes will be knocked out, until only two remain. those two will go to a vote among conservative party members. the winner will be announced on the 5th of september. this bit is key, as whoever wants to be the party leader

will need to appeal both to their tory mp colleagues but also the party members up and down the uk. a pitch the final two will be making for the rest of this summer. lone wells, bbc news. we're joined now by our political correspondent, ben wright. ben, voting begins today. yesterday was a bit like declaration day with mp saying who they are supporting. how is it looking so far? . ., ~ ., , ., ., far? cantankerous, hot and crowded in westminster. _ far? cantankerous, hot and crowded in westminster. it _ far? cantankerous, hot and crowded in westminster. it would _ far? cantankerous, hot and crowded in westminster. it would be - far? cantankerous, hot and crowded in westminster. it would be a - in westminster. it would be a dramatic day. eight candidates are running, they got the required nominations to stand. after the first round of voting that number will come down. to carry on into the second rounder candidates need at least 30 tory mps back them. the contest is into two halves. the

first now until the end of next week is entirely in the hands of tory mps. they have the job of whittling down the field to two candidates. 0ver down the field to two candidates. over the summer it goes to a vote of the tory party membership. at the moment it looks like rishi sunak is ahead of the pack, he has the most supporters among tory mps. ahead of the pack, he has the most supporters among tory mp5. the battle it feels is for the second place slot. a really crowded field. it is split among pad units. —— candidates. we will see what penny mordaunt has to say today. the former defence secretary, a former royal navy reservist, picturing herself as someone who backed brexit a few years ago but can also appeal to the one nation part of the party. there will be more hustings today as mps crowd into committee rooms to hear the pictures from the

candidates. the front runners at this stage can easily fall away as the contest goes on. cantankerous was the great _ the contest goes on. cantankerous was the great word _ the contest goes on. cantankerous was the great word he _ the contest goes on. cantankerous was the great word he used - the contest goes on. cantankerous was the great word he used at - the contest goes on. cantankerous was the great word he used at the| was the great word he used at the start of that. we will have to see what happens. we'll get an update on how the economy is doing today when the monthly gdp figures come out a little later this morning. caroline davies is at a food factory in north london for us. morning, caroline. how is it looking? yes, good morning. i'm at allplants, in their vegan food factory. they are already making the gun ready meals. they are starting with rice mix, adding been chilly, further down the line they are adding some pale. 300 of these meals will be made today unless factory. they are already feeling the pinch from what

is happening in the economy. later on today we will have the gdp figures. this will show how the economy is doing. we are looking for growth, that means there is more money in the economy, more jobs and more investment. 0ver money in the economy, more jobs and more investment. over the course of the last two months we have seen the economy shrink. we have seen figures from april, down 0.3%. all coming at the same time we are seeing the cost of living in crisis could, —— cost of living in crisis could, —— cost of living in crisis could, —— cost of living crisis, we have also seen inflation. it affects people buying things and businesses. also energy costs. if they are spending money, they cannot spend it on investment and jobs. to find out how this business is doing, i am joined by their ceo. tell us how you have been by inflation.

gdp figures to see whether it is growing or not, which is really important. more than 1,000 children in telford were sexually abused for decades, after authorities failed to investigate offenders and ignored obvious evidence. an independent inquiry said children were blamed for the abuse they suffered, and issues were not investigated because of "nervousness about race." west mercia police has apologised "unequivocally" for past events, as has telford and wrekin council. the former head of britain's armed forces has said he would "order a thorough investigation" into allegations that sas troops killed detainees in afghanistan, if he were still in charge. lord richards said the allegations were "worrying" and he had "no doubt" his successor would want to investigate them. bbc panorama found evidence that one sas unit operating in afghanistan during that time may have been responsible for sa unlawful deaths in one six—month tour of duty. all ambulance services in england have been put on the "highest alert level", because of extremely high demand. a combination of high rates of staff

absence due to covid, the hot weather and delays handing patients over to a&e units have caused problems, according to nhs trusts. some ambulance services have urged people to stay safe during the heatwave, to avoid overwhelming the nhs. it's 6:10am. now the weather with matt. he was on the beautiful water yesterday. we sent him back to the studio this morning. timer;r yesterday. we sent him back to the studio this morning.— studio this morning. they had to dra: me studio this morning. they had to drag me kicking _ studio this morning. they had to drag me kicking and _ studio this morning. they had to drag me kicking and screaming. | drag me kicking and screaming. almost a tropical look here in west sussex at the moment. temperatures around 17 degrees outside. 22 celsius in central london at the moment. further north it is a good deal fresher. moment. further north it is a good dealfresher. a moment. further north it is a good deal fresher. a pleasantly moment. further north it is a good dealfresher. a pleasantly warm day to come for many. the dividing line

and internationalfame by winning two olympic gold medals at london 2012. commentator: it's gold! he's one of britain's most—decorated 0lympians. he was knighted in 2017 for services to athletics and has become a regular on tv screens and newspaperfront pages. this is the visa to come to the uk. but in a tv documentary, airing tonight on bbc one, farah reveals his real name is hussein abdi kahin, and that he was illegally trafficked to the uk as a child for the purposes of domestic servitude. how quickly were you aware that actually your life was going to be very, very tough, and you weren't going to be reunited with family and you're going to live a very different life to the one that you thought you were coming for? pretty much early on. i knew my life would be different. living with that lady. i honestly, as much as i can think and made it more a fantasy thing,

and go "i'll get to go to school. i get to play with other kids." i never did any of that. i wasn't allowed to play with any other kids. i wasn't allowed to be myself. i had to cook, clean, and half the time, more than half the time was abused. and that was tough for me. i look around and there was no—one there. and all i ever wanted as a kid was to have my parents, or to have people who care for you. but then, early on, i knew at that point, no—one was going to be there for me. so ijust learned to block it out. he eventually confided in a teacher, who helped him alert social services, move to a new family, and become a british citizen, as mo farah. it was then that he discovered running. what was it like for you living

this kind of double life and becoming globally famous? there's a lot i couldn't say, and, in my mind as a kid, often i try and think about at that moment where i made a decision for myself, where i used to lock myself in that bathroom. and you cry every day. you cry every day and tell them, "please, someone get me out of here." no—one comes to you. so you learn to lock that up. so i told myself, "i'm not going to get emotional. i'm going to lock that up inside. and just carry on." even myself, it was hard for me to admit what has happened. what are your emotions, tanya? both now that he's able to talk about this, but when you think back to what he must have gone through. i experienced a whole range of emotions when i first realised what his background really was. my first reaction was heartbreak and sadness for him. ijust immediately pictured nine—year—old mo and being so helpless and vulnerable.

and then, equally, i felt angry at the people that did that to him, that put him through that. i don't know how anyone can live with themselves — treating a child that way. and you know, lots of sympathy for mo and confusion as to why, you know, why him? why was he brought here under those circumstances? i've known mo for, gosh, you know, 25 years—plus. and he's always been very guarded with emotions. he doesn't show them. he's been able tojust bury every emotion possible and just show happiness. and that's... you know, it's not natural. i think people... it's normal to feel sad and angry and upset. mo doesn't allow himself to, but he's now finally giving himself permission to fill those feelings of hurt and pain. and that's valid. it's ok. there's been an extraordinary reaction globally to this — these revelations — social media, front page news in the uk, headlines around the world, the fact that mo farah had a different name and a different story to the one that most people know.

it's been overwhelmingly amazing to see the support out there that we've been getting. we've had floods of messages. what have you made of the reaction around the world? it's been incredible to have so much support. thisjust shows, you know, a lot of people behind me. and it's nice to have that as well as my family. were you a bit worried in advance that people might think, a, that you'd sort of deceived them or b, that it might have legal consequences for you now? that's always my story. and as i said, i wasn't even comfortable enough to talk about it with my family. i couldn't talk about it publicly. it has taken me a long time to come to this. but i'm glad i made this documentary to show people the reality of what really happened to me as a child. the bbc has spoken to the home office, and they said, they told us, and i quote, "no action whatsoever will be taken against sir mo, and to suggest otherwise is wrong." how does that make you feel?

yes. it makes me relieved. you know, me. this is my country. amol rajan, bbc news. we have watched enforcer many years, haven't we? doing what he does best. we never knew the complicated back story he has lived with all this time. you can watch the full documentary, the real mo farah, on the bbc iplayer now. it'll also be shown on bbc one tonight at 9pm. when you think about that little boy, your heart breaks, looking down that emotion because there was no place for it. across england, there are nearly 2.5 million people living in areas that are known as left behind neighbourhoods — deprived areas where people are more likely to be in debt, rely on benefits and have poor access to secure employment. there are 225 communities like this, but more are in the north east than anywhere else. fiona trott reports from one such neighbourhood in bishop auckland.

extremely stressed. i live on my own. i'm a single person, and i have my own home. that sounds like it's all great. but, at the end of the day, i also have a lot to lose. susan loves living in this corner of county durham, but it's hard. i am extremely worried. not only that we don't have supermarkets, we only have one small shop, we have only one cash machine that you don't have to pay for to use. but then people have to get out of the village to go and get a shop — a big shop. all this has an impact on how you get out and how you get back into the village. it is wrong. coundon is a left—behind neighbourhood, a deprived community that can't catch up. a place where getting a job or even a bus is difficult. and when you do catch one, it's not cheap. it's a 15 to 20—minute walk on top

of the travel to get to work, which is a five... just over a five—minute journey in the car. that costs e2 on this bus. you have to get another one as well. e2 on top. so how much is that a day? just under £8 a day. how are you? i'm good, thanks, how are you? lunch for the locals, but it's also a lifeline. this is the only meeting place they have in eldon — another feature of a left—behind neighbourhood. we have an excellent building and we just need them to put more money into it. so we take youngsters, who have very few formal qualifications and we can give them in—house training here in catering administration, it services. this community has its own solutions.

and one charity says they could be so much stronger if theyjust had the right support. what left—behind neighbourhoods are lacking is perhaps the density of that — of community activity. they're lacking places to meet. they're lacking organisations to bring people together. and when you look at the statistics over the last ten years, you can see that that makes a real difference. and it made a real difference to connor and his mum. a community—led charity paid for his driving lessons and test. it broadens my horizon to where i can find a job. you know, if i was looking, it would just be in bishop. but now i can look downton, newton aycliffe, so it'sjust broadened the horizon for me to be able to go out and get a job. being able to drive also means he can visit his dad's grave. shall i move these over? then you can put them ones on that. a community coming together to help those in need. i didn't know there was people did things like that. not for people like us, you know. 0rdinary people. i thought it was just for, like,

better people, you know, that had a bit of summat that could do some things for themselves. a few streets away, susan arrives at work. hi. herjob is to find volunteers to improve life in the local community. to come out of their front doors and see what they need. know what their children need. know what the elderly need in the community. why can they not make the decisions on their own lives? 0ne woman's solution to surviving the cost—of—living crisis in this left—behind neighborhood. the government says it's giving more power to local leaders in the north east and is investing £900 million to regenerate its town centres. fiona trott, bbc news, county durham.

friend with the met to try and move them forward and theyjust haven't moved forward. in fact, they've gone backwards, which is frustrating, because i can't have victims being treated like this any longer. i was here to improve the victims' experience and if i cannot do that without bringing the met with me, i will have to find another way. the metropolitan police says its dedicated to supporting everyone who comes forward, and is committed to reversing the statistics and increasing convictions. the rise in the cost of living is hitting how much we take part in sporting activities. according to a survey marking ten years since the capital hosted the olympic games, almost half of londoners have cut back on exercise due to financial constraints. the poll by london sport found lower income families were most affected, cutting back on using local leisure facilities and gym memberships. 0n the tubes a signal failure is affecting the district line with no service between plaistow and barking, and the hammersmith and city line with no service between liverpool street and barking. there are severe delays on the rest

of both those lines too. now we all know it's hot, but let's get a more detailed look at the weather with elizabeth. hello. good morning. feeling slightly cooler for today and thursday and friday than it was earlier on through the week but certainly still feeling very warm with temperatures above the seasonal average and they are set to soar once again over the weekend. in fact on sunday and on monday too, which could be even hotter, and there is a met office warning in place for extreme heat. for this morning, another warm start to the day, uncomfortable for sleeping last night. there are bits of pieces of cloud around this morning but the cloud will thin and break to give us lots of sunshine and a lot more sunshine than we saw yesterday and temperatures will be that little bit lower, so peaking in the high 20s in celsius, maybe nudging 30 degrees in central london, the winds are light and the uv and pollen levels are both high. as we head through this evening and overnight, it will feel a little fresher and a little more comfortable for sleeping but still the temperatures really taking

their time to drop away and this is how we end the night, between 1a and 15 celsius. tomorrow, another slight dip in temperature, lots of sunshine around, staying dry and the same on friday but temperatures starting to build again this weekend and by sunday and monday we could be seeing some of our records threatened. keep an eye on the forecast. lots of ideas on how to keep cool on the bbc weather website. that's all for now. i'll be back in half an hour. plenty more of course on our website though. now here's sally and nina. see you soon. you are watching breakfast. trading standards in england and wales have told the bbc they are worried the market is being flooded with illicit vaping products — and they're concerned about the ease with which children have access to them.

it comes as complaints to trading standards about illegal sales of vaping products increased significantly from tens per month to hundreds. rachel burden has been to newcastle to see first hand how big an issue underage vaping is in the city. go into any city or town centre and you are likely to see young people puffing on of apes.— puffing on of apes. while they do not contain _ puffing on of apes. while they do not contain tobacco, _ puffing on of apes. while they do not contain tobacco, they - puffing on of apes. while they do not contain tobacco, they do - puffing on of apes. while they do i not contain tobacco, they do contain nicotine, the chemical that makes people addicted to smoking. how long have you been vaping for? five years. so you started quite young. what about your customer three months. what drew you to it? the flavours, months. what drew you to it? the flavours. the _ months. what drew you to it? the flavours, the smell. would - months. what drew you to it? the flavours, the smell. would you . months. what drew you to it? the | flavours, the smell. would you say ou are flavours, the smell. would you say you are addicted? _ flavours, the smell. would you say you are addicted? 10096. _ flavours, the smell. would you say you are addicted? 100%. these - flavours, the smell. would you say| you are addicted? 10096. these are some examples — you are addicted? 10096. these are some examples of— you are addicted? 10096. these are some examples of some _ you are addicted? 10096. these are some examples of some of - you are addicted? 10096. these are some examples of some of the - you are addicted? icici% these are some examples of some of the most popular vapes available to buy them and they are bright coloured, slimline and come in a range of flavours and would typically cost between seven or e8. so how are

the uk vaping industry association say... whether it is plain packaging, stronger regulation of products or cracking down on the shops, there is a huge challenge to tackle the popularity of tina vaping. for more on the potential risks of underage vaping we can speak to our regular gp, dr helen wall. welcome. good morning. you could see from the re ort that good morning. you could see from the report that it — good morning. you could see from the report that it is — good morning. you could see from the report that it is increasingly _ report that it is increasingly popular amongst young children and it isjust too popular amongst young children and it is just too easy for them to get hold of. what are the risks? l it is just too easy for them to get hold of. what are the risks? i think it's really important _ hold of. what are the risks? i think it's really important we _ hold of. what are the risks? i think it's really important we reflect i hold of. what are the risks? i think it's really important we reflect on | it's really important we reflect on the fact that e cigarettes and vaping is still a recommended product for those people who are smoking. it has been shown to stop

smoking. it has been shown to stop smoking and it doubles the chances of somebody quitting smoking from our evidence. having said that, this is really worrying, the young people getting into this because as we heard on the tape there, people are trying this, young people are trying this when they've never smoked, so they are not using it as a way of getting up smoking, they are using as a fashion trend and the habit and the risks is that there is still quite a lot of nicotine in these vapes and that is very addictive. these people have developing brains and we know that nicotine is a stimulant in the developing brain and the brain continues to develop until the age of 25 so those developing brains are quite susceptible to the high nicotine levels being consumed in some of these apes that have 3500 smokes when the legal limit is 600 and have higher nicotine than the legal limit in the uk so we are quite tightly regulated in the country with vapes but there's a lot of products

getting into the market, especially the younger populations that are not meeting those regulations. they are higher nicotine and have more in them than they should have and it's going to cause a problem with a lot of the youths being irritable, agitated and ultimately addicted to these things that they then struggle to come off. ~ ., ., , _, these things that they then struggle to come off-— to come off. what does nicotine do to come off. what does nicotine do to ou? to come off. what does nicotine do to you? it's — to come off. what does nicotine do to you? it's a _ to come off. what does nicotine do to you? it's a stimulant, _ to come off. what does nicotine do to you? it's a stimulant, and i to come off. what does nicotine do to you? it's a stimulant, and the i to you? it's a stimulant, and the benefits when _ to you? it's a stimulant, and the benefits when you _ to you? it's a stimulant, and the benefits when you try _ to you? it's a stimulant, and the benefits when you try to - to you? it's a stimulant, and the benefits when you try to come i to you? it's a stimulant, and the | benefits when you try to come off cigarettes, it's always a risk balance. cigarettes have tobacco and tar in them and they have carbon monoxide so they have a lot of chemicals in there that cause cancer, and caused over 50 serious health diseases and it is a killer, so we know smoking is really bad for you but the vapes have nicotine in and that is a stimulant and it hasn't got chemicals that cause the cancers and other things we worry about but what it does causes agitation and impulse control and can affect sleep and if our young people are still developing their brains and trying to get on with

their day—to—day life it can make them quite irritable and their impulse control can be altered and when they get addicted and trying to come off that or if they can't get hold of one we have seen people who stop smoking and you get the same withdrawal effect and they become less concentrated and become agitated and they cannot concentrate on all of those things start to happen so it's quite worrying we could have a whole generation of young people addicted to these. will bayley how would parents spot that their child might be vaping you can smell cigarettes on people but can you smell vapes? that's the problem. if you are smoking the room fills with smoke and you get nicotine staining. none of that is going to happen with vapes, and there's a lot of parents who are not aware that their children are vaping and we've seen how popular it is becoming, so

i think this will have to be an encouragement to parents to talk to their parents about vapes because a lot of young people think it is risk—free and it is not, especially the more illegal products, but if anyone is getting addicted, the encouragement from me as a health professional is to encourage parents with teenagers to have a chat with their child about the risks of vaping because there is no external way of us knowing this is going on unless we see them doing it. by, way of us knowing this is going on unless we see them doing it. abs, 1th unless we see them doing it. a lot of mm: unless we see them doing it. a lot of young people — unless we see them doing it. a lot of young people are _ unless we see them doing it. a lot of young people are switched on and self aware that they don't necessarily know because it smells of apples or cherries, they don't know it is harmful. l’ge of apples or cherries, they don't know it is harmful.— of apples or cherries, they don't know it is harmful. i've heard from ounu know it is harmful. i've heard from young people _ know it is harmful. i've heard from young people who _ know it is harmful. i've heard from young people who say _ know it is harmful. i've heard from young people who say i _ know it is harmful. i've heard from young people who say i choose i know it is harmful. i've heard from | young people who say i choose one that matches my outfit. because it is pink or blue or has patterns on it, so it's being marketed as as a trendy, fashionable product but the risks around it are perhaps not being talked about as they should be. is being talked about as they should be. , ., , ., , , being talked about as they should be. , .,y ., be. is it early days into the long-term _ be. is it early days into the long-term impact - be. is it early days into the

here's matt with a look at this morning's weather. lam i am still lam stilldreaming i am still dreaming of being on the boat, and where else would braehead be. a beautiful this morning in northern ireland this is the temperature is around 11 degrees and comfortable and parts of the south—east again very humid and it's been a tropical night with temperatures up to 22 degrees and you can see the difference from north to south and the fresher conditions pushing south and we still have this zone of cloud drifting towards the south—east corner and could produce showers on and off through the day, just a few spots of rain from the crowd overhead but temperatures up to 30 or 31 celsius but it will be a good deal more comfortable the further north we go and sunshine across england and wales are more than yesterday that may be a few showers passing through northern ireland and central and western scotland and it's here the breeze is still keen

and temperatures between 13 and 15 degrees and if not cooler than we will see in the south—east of england. slightly more comfortable in the south—east 16 or 17 degrees and elsewhere with clear skies, clear skies continuing in scotland and temperatures more widely around ten or 12 celsius, so throw open the windows tomorrow and get the residual heat outside the house and you will need to keep doing that over the next few mornings because we had into next week the heatwave round two will be on its way. we will be ready for it. coming up to quarter to seven and johnny sia with the sport. to quarter to seven and johnny sia with the sport-— morning everybody. a big debate about what is sport about, is about being at the best venues, playing your best, or is it about making money? l your best, or is it about making mone ? . , your best, or is it about making mone ? ., , ., ., your best, or is it about making mone ? .,, ., ., ., your best, or is it about making mone ? ., ., ., , money? i was going to ask, is it makin: money? i was going to ask, is it making money? _ money? i was going to ask, is it making money? that _ money? i was going to ask, is it making money? that debate i money? i was going to ask, is it making money? that debate is| money? i was going to ask, is it i making money? that debate is raging in uolf more making money? that debate is raging

good for each other. 2000 woods was when woods first won the open here. now a golfer contemplating the end. i don't know how many open championships i have left here at st andrews, but i have wanted this one. you know, it started here for me in '95, and if it ends here in '22, it does. if it doesn't it doesn't. if i get the chance to play one more, it would be great, but there is no guarantee. watching woods move around his practice round, you see the issue. maybe he is lucky to be able to walk at all after his car accident but the limp is clear. well, it's windy, the terrain is undulating. completing 18 holes is a test of stamina. it's supposed to be. there are other famous players here who have chosen a different form of golf. sergio garcia, dustinjohnson, men who are part of the rival saudi funded liv tour but permitted to play in this open at least. lee westwood is another. woods does not agree with their choice.

what they've done is turn their back on what has allowed them to get to this position. what these players are doing for guaranteed money, what is the incentive to practice? what is the incentive to go out there and earn it in the dirt? it's a prominent issue. i even spotted this topically redesigned liv t—shirt worn by a practice day spectator. woods may now be a traditionalist, standing against encroaching gales of change, but he's also a golfer still trying to get better. joe wilson, bbc news, st andrews. worth pointing out that two of those victories have come in st andrews, so don't bet against tiger woods. well, it was a day to forget for england in their first one day international against india yesterday. in what was one of their heaviest defeats in years, with jason roy, joe root and ben stokes all going for ducks. they eventually finsihed with just 110,

avoiding their record lowest score. india calmly knocked off the runs, without the loss of a wicket. the second match of the series at lord's tomorrow... there was movement in the wicket earlier and they exposed it brilliantly, but that being said we have to review and think, is there a way we can come through that better than we did today instead of losing five wickets, six wickets early, is there a way of managing to keep it to two or three which with a long batting line—up will help us post a better score. yesterday we told you about england's record eight nil win over norway. we now know the hosts will avoid eight—time champions germany in the quarter—finals after they beat spain in brentford last night. it means they'll top the group and thus avoid sernea wiegman's side in the last eight. they were gifted their opener when the spanish goalkeeper gifted the ball to klara buhl inside two minutes. alex popp doubled their lead just before half—time.

england will face spain or denmark, who beat finland here 1—0. chelsea's pernille harder with the goal, that keeps their hopes of reaching the knock out stage alive. let's not forget they were the finalists last time out and sets them up for a showdown with spain on saturday. and picture the scene, it's your first match in charge, you're playing your great rivals and you only go and win 4—0. now i know this is only a pre season friendly, but manchester united against liverpool is never just a friendly, is it? certainly not when you win 4—0. no wonder the fans who were there in bangkok enjoyed it. but did new manager erik ten haag? there he is getting his hands on what you can't really call silverware, it looks like a piece of lego. it's not really impressive. it lego. it's not really impressive. it looks like a cake. it— lego. it's not really impressive. it looks like a cake. it could - lego. it's not really impressive. it looks like a cake. it could be i lego. it's not really impressive. it looks like a cake. it could be a i looks like a cake. it could be a cake or a _ looks like a cake. it could be a cake or a giant _ looks like a cake. it could be a cake or a giant piece _ looks like a cake. it could be a cake or a giant piece of- looks like a cake. it could be a cake or a giant piece of lego. |

applause. since her marriage to the prince of wales in 2005, much has changed for camilla. the shadow of princess diana has faded, and her own place in public life alongside her husband has become more secure. do you know if she's a fan ofjilly cooper books? i don't know. i think she's read them. those who have known and worked with camilla since before she married into the royalfamily recognise the bumpy road she has travelled. it hasn't been an easy journey for her, has it? it hasn't been an easy journey because the public loved diana so much. it took her a long, long time to get over this which i think was quite unnecessary, and gradually, gradually the public have seen how happy she has made the prince of wales and how hard she works. and she honestly has a lovely relationship with the prince of wales because they laugh and they tease each other

but they support each other, which is so lovely too. to mark her birthday, camilla has edited an edition of country life and made the front cover. she features her love of horses and the countryside, her favourite view and recipe. keeping it in the family, some of the photos were taken by the duchess of cambridge. although the stars of the show might be her two rescue jack russell terriers, bluebell and beth, who were this edition's regular feature, girls in pearls. the duchess of cambridge came with her camera and she is an extremely good photographer, and it was all very casual. you know, there wasn't much hairand make—up. a documentary team has also followed camilla over the past year as she planned her 75th birthday edit of the magazine. at an age when most people have retired, camilla has the biggest role of her life ahead of her. earlier this year, the queen said

it was her sincere wish for camilla to become queen consort when charles becomes king. it was a very public endorsement of her daughter—in—law and the way she has navigated royal life. and much of that has been down to the public work she has done. perhaps the most emotional, most difficult have been with the victims of domestic violence. the charities she supports say camilla is a valuable asset. i'm sure one of these will come out. any survivor of domestic abuse who meets her says she really listens, and somebody who has lived through domestic abuse has got very strong antennae for someone who is just faking it or ticking a box. they really understand when someone is properly engaging with them and that is the sense that people always get from her, she's really listening and hearing what people are saying and she's constantly asking, what more can i do? which is an incredible thing from somebody in her position. the future for camilla may be

for a very long time. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. a very good morning. i'm alice salfield. victims of serious sexual assault have told bbc london they've been traumatised by the treatment they received from the met police when reporting their attacks. new figures show the number of rape survivors withdrawing their cases has risen by 7% in the capital since 2019. the victims' commissioner for london now wants them to be supported by an independent hub — not met officers. it's frustrating for me, five years working as a critical friend with the met to try and move them forward and theyjust haven't moved forward. in fact, they've gone backwards, which is frustrating, because i can't have victims being treated like this any longer. i was here to improve the victims' experience and if i cannot do that

without bringing the met with me, i will have to find another way. the metropolitan police says it's dedicated to supporting everyone who comes forward, and is committed to reversing the statistics and increasing convictions. the rise in the cost of living is hitting how much we take part in sporting activities. according to a survey, marking ten years since the capital hosted the olympic games, almost half of londoners have cut back on exercise due to financial constraints. the poll by london sport found lower income families were most affected. around 125 firefighters have tackled a "challenging" blaze that broke out in the basement of a pub in trafalgar square yesterday evening. huge plumes of smoke could be seen billowing from the admiralty pub. 150 people got out safely before firefighters arrived. no—one was hurt and the cause is now being investigated. let's see how the tubes are looking this morning. there are severe delays on both the district and hammersmith and city lines because of a signal failure.

now we all know it's hot but let's get a more detailed look at the weather with elizabeth. hello. good morning. feeling slightly cooler for today and thursday and friday than it was earlier on through the week but certainly still feeling very warm with temperatures above the seasonal average and they are set to soar once again over the weekend. in fact on sunday and on monday too, which could be even hotter, and there is a met office warning in place for extreme heat. for this morning, another warm start to the day, uncomfortable for sleeping last night. there are bits of pieces of cloud around this morning but the cloud will thin and break to give us lots of sunshine and a lot more sunshine than we saw yesterday and temperatures will be that little bit lower, so peaking in the high 20s in celsius, maybe nudging 30 degrees in central london, the winds are light and the uv and pollen levels are both high. as we head through this evening and overnight, it will feel a little fresher and a little more

comfortable for sleeping but still the temperatures really taking their time to drop away and this is how we end the night, between 14 and i6 celsius. tomorrow, another slight dip in temperature, lots of sunshine around, staying dry and the same on friday but temperatures starting to build again this weekend and by sunday and monday we could be seeing some of our records threatened. keep an eye on the forecast. lots of ideas on how to keep cool on the bbc weather website. i'll be back in half an hour. see you soon. good morning. welcome to breakfast with nina warhust and sally nugent. our headlines today... and then there were eight — the remaining candidates for conservative leadership prepare to face their first round of voting. one of the biggest issues any of the candidates will have to grapple with this the economy. the cost of living crisis is already affecting

businesses like this, food manufacturers. i will have the latest in a few minutes. hospices across the uk say they're struggling to recruit enough palliative care nurses. with just 24 hours to go until the start of one of golf�*s biggest events, how tiger woods is taking aim at more than scotland's historic st andrew's course. and we'll hear from the man, who made a miraculous escape after being buried in this avalanche in kyrgyzstan. a hot day today in the far south—east of england. elsewhere it is cooler and more comfortable. a few showers in scotland and northern ireland. the full forecast coming up on breakfast. it's wednesday, the 13th ofjuly. our main story. conservative mps will cast their first vote today for who they want to replace borisjohnson as party leader. eight candidates are left in the race to become the next prime minister — they have to secure 30 votes in the first round to stay

in the race, as our political correspondent lone wells reports. i can report that we have eight candidates, duly nominated. and then there were eight. one of these candidates will be the next prime minister, having secured the backing of at least 20 tory mps. the former chancellor, rishi sunak, the attorney general, suella braverman, the foreign secretary, liz truss, the chancellor, nadhim zahawi, minister penny mordaunt and mps kemi badenoch, jeremy hunt and tom tugendhat. things heated up last night quite literally, as they crowded into a hot, sticky room in parliament one by one to encourage colleagues to back them today. please welcome rishi sunak. applause. the former chancellor, rishi sunak, has the most tory mps backing him so far, securing endorsements from the cabinet ministers, dominic raab and grant shapps, among others. mr shapps earlier on had previously put himself forward. actually, i was delighted with

the support that i got, but i also recognise that what we need more than anything else is somebody who can step straight into the role of prime minister in serious times. there will be a lot of eyes on where other candidates lay their support if and when they are eliminated. morning, mrjavid. neither the former health secretary, sajid javid, who withdrew from the contest, or the home secretary, priti patel, who decided not to stand, have said who they will support instead. penny mordaunt has the second—highest number of tory mps publicly backing her. she's kept a lower profile so far, but launches her campaign this morning. but today, support for all candidates will be put to its first test. tory mps will vote this afternoon, and anyone with fewer than 30 votes will be eliminated. successive rounds continue, where the candidate with the fewest votes will be knocked out, until only two remain. those two will go to a vote among

conservative party members. the winner will be announced on the 5th of september. this bit is key, as whoever wants to be the party leader will need to appeal both to their tory mp colleagues but also the party members up and down the uk — a pitch the final two will be making for the rest of this summer. lone wells, bbc news. we're joined now by our political correspondent, ben wright. ben, voting begins today — many mps have already come out -- it is —— it is down to eight. does the race remain wide open? it is -- it is down to eight. does the race remain wide open?- race remain wide open? it is a crowded field. _ race remain wide open? it is a crowded field. by _ race remain wide open? it is a crowded field. by the - race remain wide open? it is a crowded field. by the end - race remain wide open? it is a crowded field. by the end of. race remain wide open? it is a i crowded field. by the end of the race remain wide open? it is a - crowded field. by the end of the day we will have a much shorter list. to carry on to their second round of voting in the contest, tory mps would need to get at least 30 of their colleagues to back them when they vote in the houses of parliament between 1:30pm and 3:30pm

with results expected around five o'clock. we had to see the contest to pick conservative prime minister as two separate things. whittling the candidates down to two and then it will go to a wider membership over the summer. it is a rancorous contest as well. nadine boris tweeted yesterday evening, in her view, the rishi sunak camp were dirty of —— were guilty of dirty tricks trying to getjeremy hunt three. it feels that rishi sunak is very likely to be one of the two final candidates. the battle is for second spot. that is wide open. penny mordaunt, a favourite of the grassroots, is launching her

has gone up by not .5% is a bit of a positive sign. whenever the economy grows, and that is what that means, more money is in the economy. the big question for economists is how it fits in to a general trend. what direction is a uk economy going in and what will it mean at the end of the quarter? the former head of britain's armed forces has said he would "order a thorough investigation" into allegations that sas troops killed detainees in afghanistan if he were still in charge. lord richards said the allegations were "worrying" and he had "no doubt" his successor would want to investigate them. bbc panorama found evidence that one sas unit operating in afghanistan during that time may have been responsible for 54 unlawful deaths in one six—month tour of duty. all ambulance services in england have been put on the "highest alert level" because of extreme demand. a combination of staff absences due to covid, the hot weather and delays handing patients over to a&e units have caused problems, according to nhs trusts.

some ambulance services have urged people to stay safe during the heatwave, to avoid overwhelming the nhs. the president of sri lanka has fled the country on a militaryjet, amid mass protests over its economic crisis. the country's air force confirmed that a 73—year—old flew to the maldives with his wife and two security officials. we're joined now by our south asia editor, anbarasan ethirajan, who's in the capital, colombo. how has news of his escape gone down with the public?— with the public? people had been celebratin: with the public? people had been celebrating at _ with the public? people had been celebrating at the _ with the public? people had been l celebrating at the anti-government celebrating at the anti—government protest site behind me, which was the office of the president about 30 metres from here. when the news came, they were writing slogan saying victory to the people. that has been the response from the protesters here. these

demonstrations have been going on for months against the government. what started as a protest against allegations of mismanagement of the economy and the cost of living turned into anti—government protest and now president see monster has left the country and reports suggest he might go to a third country. —— are now president rajapaksa. he has not submitted his official resignation letter. that leaves sri lankan in a huge political crisis at the moment. people are hoping it will be solved soon. i had to come onto the roof to enjoy some of the warmth. 23 degrees in london. a stiflingly warm night. a

of the most appalling abuse. after three years, the findings of an independent inquiry are damning. countless children were sexually assaulted and raped. they were deliberately humiliated, degraded. they were shared and trafficked. they were subjected to violence, and their families were threatened. they lived in fear. their lives were forever changed. they've asked over the years, "how was this allowed to happen?" the answer, he believes, is that the authorities had ignored obvious signs of child exploitation, had blamed the children and not the people responsible, and in many cases, wouldn't investigate because of nervousness about race. although the problems came to light during operation chalice when seven men of south asian descent were convicted of offences against teenage girls, this only formed part of the inquiry, which spoke to victims from many communities over many decades.

i spoke to one, who was raped and trafficked, but instead of getting help, she got a criminal record. her words have been revoiced to protect her identity. victims were being identified as child prostitutes. once you have been convicted, that label will never leave you. prosecutions are damaging to your life. some children went to prison for not paying the fines. convictions should be completely expunged. there's been a wholehearted apology from telford and wrekin borough council and an unequivocal one from west mercia police. now campaigners say they want to ensure that both of those agencies, and the others, all implement the 47 recommendations that the report has made. survivors like scarlett say they'll campaign to ensure that in future children are listened to. i had social workers' involvement. i had police. ihad, um... there was a lot of people involved in my life, but nobody asked any questions.

do you think those questions are being asked now? i think that we're getting somewhere where they're starting to be asked, but there's still a long way to go. phil mackie, bbc news, telford. we're joined now by the former detective maggie oliver, who became a whistle—blower in the rochdale grooming scandal, along with reverend keith osmund—smith, from telford street pastors. morning to you both. maggie, let's start with you. even just hearing their story, start with you. even just hearing theirstory, considering start with you. even just hearing their story, considering the experience you had in your career, how surprised are you? i experience you had in your career, how surprised are you?— how surprised are you? i think like the rest of — how surprised are you? i think like the rest of the _ how surprised are you? i think like the rest of the country _ how surprised are you? i think like the rest of the country i _ how surprised are you? i think like the rest of the country i am - how surprised are you? i think like the rest of the country i am not. the rest of the country i am not surprised at all. you literally could cut and paste telford, you could cut and paste telford, you could replace it with rochdale, rotherham or oxford. it enrages me. ifeel, despite what rotherham or oxford. it enrages me. i feel, despite what the assistant chief constable said yesterday in his press release, things have moved

on and victims now we get a very different service. there are specially trained officers. while i accept there is an understanding of this crime, we'll know it is going on everywhere. my work with the maggie oliver foundation brings on everywhere. my work with the maggie oliverfoundation brings me into contact with victims today. in the past year alone, we have referred 460 live cases to police forces where victims say they are not being listened to by police, they are not being treated with respect, and there is a lack of understanding of trauma and what failure to act does to evict him. i feel i have to keep coming on and saying the system is still not dealing with this crime properly. we do not have the facts. we do not have statistics. even though there are specially trained officers in squads, most of the time a victim of go and speak to a police officer who might have three weeks in the job

and they are often dismissed, which is why they come to us to support them. the pattern of this offending, them. the pattern of this offending, the abuses within the grooming gangs, are predominantly pakistani muslim men. that is a fact. it is not being racist to say that. i want to open up the conversation within that community. i want to understand why this is still going on. a50—year—old man raping a 11—year—old, 12—year—old child is against the law in this country and we had to deal with it in a way that clearly sends the message out, this will not be tolerated. i want proactive work, communication, i want the community itself to call it out. i would say the same about the catholic church. we had a base where it was hidden for many years. i would like to see the imams in the community saying we need to do something about this. there are many

pakistani muslim people living in this country who think, just like me, this is wrong and i want them to be part of this conversation. it is be part of this conversation. it is not be part of this conversation. it is rrot about _ be part of this conversation. it is not about race _ be part of this conversation. it is not about race and _ be part of this conversation. it is not about race and religion, it is about criminals, isn't it? keith, taught me through your experiences. —— took me three. what happens when you try to say this is not right? i you try to say this is not right? i want to say hello to maggie as well because _ want to say hello to maggie as well because she made the point about the similarities— because she made the point about the similarities between rochdale, rotherham and telford. my own experience as coordinator for telford — experience as coordinator for telford street pastors, which started — telford street pastors, which started in 2011 was from the end of 2012 onwards we began to see how badly— 2012 onwards we began to see how badly organised and badly planned for and _ badly organised and badly planned for and ratings events were being held at— for and ratings events were being held at night clubs around the town.

confident it is happening in a lot of places. it's been a turbulent few months for the travel industry with thousands of people having their holidays plans affect by the disruption. that includes mark and caroline gittins, who had a 15—hour nightmare trying to get to their destination but ended up back where they started, as fi lamdin reports. mark and caroline thought a trip to madeira would be the perfect way to celebrate his 60th birthday. but they had no idea what was in store. it was horrendous. i mean, you know, ithink i put my head in my hands. caroline was comforting me. yeah. in sort of around 40 years of flying, as i say, i'm 60 on the 13th ofjuly. i've been flying probably for longer than 40 years. i have never since — we have never — since we've been together experienced anything like that. a flight like that should have taken hours ended up as a 15—hour nightmare. they arrived at gatwick at 3:40am to check—in.

it was delayed, but once in the air, they finally relaxed, until a few hours later there was an announcement. because of strong winds, it was being diverted to tenerife. after a few hours on the ground, they were back in the air again, but instead of madeira, they arrived back at gatwick at six o'clock that evening. we have a major problem really with the way we were treated by the airline coming back, i think. on the flight back to gatwick, we received all these promises — some from the captain, some from the air stewards — that they were going to sort us out with alternative flights, accommodation... food vouchers. that they were going to give us food vouchers, look after all of these things, and get us back to madeira. none of that happened. they didn't deliver on any of those promises. easyjet has said...

mark and caroline are now looking for another way to celebrate his big birthday. fiona lamdin, bbc news. our hearts go out to them. heathrow airport has told airlines to stop selling summer tickets as it struggles to cope with demand. let's get the latest with the independent�*s travel correspondent, simon calder. first of all, let's talk about heathrow and go on to the case we had just been hearing about. restrictions at heathrow, what might it mean for travellers? it is it mean for travellers? it is extraordinary. _ it mean for travellers? it is extraordinary. we - it mean for travellers? it is extraordinary. we have - it mean for travellers? it 3 extraordinary. we have heard heathrow airport from effectively now until the 11th of september once a maximum of 100,000 passengers per day departing. it sounds like a big number, indeed it is. it is actually much fewer people than at the

pre—pandemic levels. heathrow airport says they reckon there are about 104,000 seats going to be leaving. that is the number of people they would expect. they have told the airlines to stop selling tickets now and then we will be able to carry everyone. there might be some cancellations, ten to 15 a day. i have been making ten test looking so far today and i could buy a ticket from pretty much anywhere from heathrow today. clearly a communication issue to be solved. the big question is, what does it mean to me? the airlines here hope it will mean a smootherjourney, less chances of cancellation. actually it will effective relatively low number of people, maybe 1500 a day. and rights rules, you will be able to not necessarily

on the same day from heathrow but say my flight from barcelona was cancelled, i could go to one of the other london airports and be booked on to that and you should be getting plenty of notice. the whole idea is to avoid travel chaos and not to create it. ., ~ , to avoid travel chaos and not to create it. . ,, , ., ,, ., create it. talk us through mark and caroline's pace. _ create it. talk us through mark and caroline's pace. imagine _ create it. talk us through mark and caroline's pace. imagine being - create it. talk us through mark and l caroline's pace. imagine being flown to a location you are not to and then being taken home. it does sound unusual. they said they were not supported when they went back to the airport. what are their rights? what should happen in that scenario? anybody flying to madeira has to have a plan b. it has a fantastic apple protruding over the atlantic ocean. pilots need special training and there are strict limits to keep everybody safe. many flights a diverted, sometimes to tenerife,

sometimes to lisbon, sometimes straight back to gatwick. you have written's biggest budget airline, easyjet, the couple did the right thing, they booked a proper package holiday through to a and yet when they got back to gatwick instead of someone saying we had that to one this seeming because my flight to lisbon we are going to be flying back to madeira tomorrow, go and check internet hotel and we look forward to seeing you in the morning, there was no help. easyjet said that is because they pass the message back to the travel company which was not passed on. it reflects the we are in in this very traumatic for some people's samedov help not being available where it should. i hope they will be able to get back to madeira, it is a beautiful island. to have a plan b. officially, they had no compensation rights battle because it was not the

fault of the airline but i hope some combination of easyjet and tui will show some generosity getting another holiday at a lower cost. igalore show some generosity getting another holiday at a lower cost.— holiday at a lower cost. we're all rootin: holiday at a lower cost. we're all rooting for _ holiday at a lower cost. we're all rooting for them. _ holiday at a lower cost. we're all rooting for them. that _ holiday at a lower cost. we're all rooting for them. that is - rooting for them. that is disappointing, isn't it? thank you for the warning. careful if you are booking from heathrow or going through heathrow in the next three months. they said they didn't even get snacks. to add insult to injury. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. a very good morning. i'm alice salfield. victims of serious sexual assault have told bbc london they've been traumatised by the treatment they received from the met police when reporting their attacks. new figures show the number of rape survivors withdrawing their cases has risen by 7 percent in the capital since 2019.

the victims' commissioner for london now wants them to be supported by an independent hub — not met officers. it's frustrating for me, five years working as a critical friend with the met to try and move them forward and theyjust haven't moved forward. in fact, they've gone backwards, which is frustrating, because i can't have victims being treated like this any longer. i was here to improve the victims' experience and if i cannot do that without bringing the met with me, i will have to find another way. the metropolitan police says it's dedicated to supporting everyone who comes forward, and is committed to reversing the statistics and increasing convictions. the rise in the cost of living is hitting how much we take part in sporting activities. according to a survey marking ten years since the capital hosted the olympic games — almost half of londoners have cut back on exercise due to financial constraints. the poll by london sport found lower

income families were most affected. a year on from the intense rainstorms ofjuly 2021 — a group of london agencies say they remain committed to tackling the risk of flash flooding. around 1,500 properties were flooded — with more than a month's rainfall injust over one hour. last month the london mayor wrote to thousands of basemement homeowners to warn them of their vulnerability. let's see how the tubes are looking this morning — there are severe delays on both the district and hammersmith and city lines because of a signal failure. now the weather with elizabeth. hello. good morning. feeling slightly cooler for today and thursday and friday than it was earlier on through the week but certainly still feeling very warm with temperatures above the seasonal average and they are set to soar once again over the weekend. in fact on sunday and on monday too, which could be even hotter, and there is a met office warning in place for extreme heat. for this morning, another warm start to the day, uncomfortable for sleeping last night.

there are bits of pieces of cloud around this morning but the cloud will thin and break to give us lots of sunshine and a lot more sunshine than we saw yesterday and temperatures will be that little bit lower, so peaking in the high 20s in celsius, maybe nudging 30 degrees in central london, the winds are light and the uv and pollen levels are both high. as we head through this evening and overnight, it will feel a little fresher and a little more comfortable for sleeping but still the temperatures really taking their time to drop away and this is how we end the night, between 14 and 16 celsius. tomorrow, another slight dip in temperature, lots of sunshine around, staying dry and the same on friday but temperatures starting to build again this weekend and by sunday and monday we could be seeing some of our records threatened. keep an eye on the forecast. lots of ideas on how to keep cool on the bbc weather website. i'll be back in an hour's time. now here's sally and nina. see you soon.

hello, this is breakfast with nina warhurst and sally nugent. eight candidates remain in the race to number 10 — and by the end of next week, just two will be left. let's look at the week ahead. the first round of voting gets underway today — and candidates with less than 30 votes each will be eliminated. voting will continue in rounds and those with the fewest votes will be knocked out of the running — until only two remain next thursday. they will make their pitch to lead the party — and the winner will be announced by 5th september. so, how do people feel about boris johnson's potential replacement? breakfast�*s jayne mccubbin has been to llandudno to gauge reaction. the race has begun and candidates are raring to go. can i chat to you about the tory party leadership contest? no, thank you. they have yet to hit peak excitement here in llandudno.

are you feeling it, ladies? no. can't decide at all. we can't decide on who yet. there are so many. there are a lot of them are much as much. they all tell lies at the end of the day. i'm struggling to find somebody who is a cheerleader forjust one of them. i'm not. no. in the bid to replace borisjohnson we are down to eight. who will the party choose? who knows? i am liz truss and i am going to be the next prime minister. so, don't anyone else bother. so, you've heard of the x factor six—chair challenge, and this is the conservative party six—chair challenge brought to you from a llandudno beach. ok, there are nojudge's houses and there's not even any chairs, but we do have candidates and we do have people willing

to pick their winner. liz truss. i've heard of her. that's a bonus. have you seen anyone you like so far? no. in the real contest, the first ballot takes place later today with results announced tomorrow. by majority vote, we are getting rid ofjeremy hunt. hunt has gone. penny, bye—bye. penny has gone. why are we getting rid of liz truss? i really don't think you can trust her. after that a series of run—off votes will whittle the candidates down to two, but here in llandudno the votes are in. rishi. rishi is the only one who says no tax cuts? yes, they've got to get the money back somehow. chris? rishi. for the same reasons. exactly the same. i like this lady. suella braverman? she's quite sensible. she is a barrister. new blood. whoever gives us free chocolate and free dogs. free chocolate and free puppies has rebecca's vote. chocolate and dogs, sounds

as reasonable is what boris was saying, doesn't it? back in the real world, the final two will be announced by the end of next week. after that the new leader of the party will be picked, not by zoltar, but by conservative party members across the winner is announced in september. trisha and jill, what did you just shout at me? dishy rishi! bookies, like trisha, have picked their favourite by a slim margin him or liz. he is no tax cuts, but liz tax cuts from day one. you can't have all of these tax cuts when services are in a mess. it's fair to say sunak divides on tax. it's fair to say we need tax cuts because of the rising costs, we need more money in our pockets.

it's our race to the top of the party with promises of more honesty, more integrity and less drama. it's all promises to get into power. everybody is the same, really. i was always a definite labour supporter. i would back him any day. just hope for the best and hope whoever gets in does the best for the people. do you want to give a message to the conservative party? not really. because that is the gamble of this leadership competition, that people like marge and sheila, who will still miss their man. sorry, marge and sheila. hospices across the uk say they're struggling to recruit enough palliative care nurses — the health professionals who do an incredibly importantjob for people who are dying and their families. someone who's had experience of that is the former england footballer sir geoff hurst, whose eldest daughter claire received support when she was dying

from a brain tumour in 2010. we can speak to sir geoff now, along with sophie brew who's a palliative care nurse for the charity sue ryder. we will begin with you, sophie. what do you love about yourjob? i lose do you love about your 'ob? i love everything — do you love about your 'ob? i love everything about h do you love about your 'ob? i love everything about my _ do you love about yourjob? i love everything about my job. - do you love about yourjob? i love everything about my job. it's - do you love about yourjob? i love | everything about my job. it's more everything about myjob. it's more thaniust_ everything about myjob. it's more thanjust doing a job, it's part of my lifestyle now and walking into work _ my lifestyle now and walking into work for — my lifestyle now and walking into work for me feels like i'm just going — work for me feels like i'm just going home again. it is so rewarding to know— going home again. it is so rewarding to know i _ going home again. it is so rewarding to know i can— going home again. it is so rewarding to know i can be there for people, and it's— to know i can be there for people, and it's a — to know i can be there for people, and it's a really difficult time of their— and it's a really difficult time of their lives, and it's notjust the individual— their lives, and it's notjust the individual going through it, it is their— individual going through it, it is their family individual going through it, it is theirfamily as individual going through it, it is their family as well. it's so important that i can do something extra _ important that i can do something extra and — important that i can do something extra and i— important that i can do something extra and i have that chance to go above _ extra and i have that chance to go above and — extra and i have that chance to go above and beyond for a situation where _ above and beyond for a situation where we — above and beyond for a situation where we only get one chance to get it right _ where we only get one chance to get it right sir— where we only get one chance to get it ritht. ,, , .p where we only get one chance to get itritht. ,, , , it right. sir geoff hurst, you suddenly — it right. sir geoff hurst, you suddenly have _ it right. sir geoff hurst, you suddenly have been - it right. sir geoff hurst, you suddenly have been one - it right. sir geoff hurst, you suddenly have been one of. it right. sir geoff hurst, you - suddenly have been one of those families that needed the support from a hospice at the end of your daughter's life. tell us about clear

let's have a look at the morning weather with matt. temperatures at the moment still 22 celsius in london, as far as they have dipped through the night, really uncomfortable for sleeping across parts of the south, but elsewhere things are more comfortable, normal solar weather has resumed —— summer weather and let's take a look at the forecast for today because for most of you it is cooler than it has been but still pleasantly warm in the sunshine and not actually feeling hot for one or two and the hottest conditions towards the south—east corner and most will have a dry day with sunny spells but there will be showers around. what has brought the change to normal summer conditions is the cold front drifting south during the last 2a hours and it's now reaching the south—east corner but not quick enough to sweep away some of the heat we have seen in the last few days so another humid day across southern counties and into the channel islands and there could be spots of rain with the cloudy air

but most places are crossing the now wales are dry, lots more sunshine for scotland and northern ireland showers will come and go in western ireland and northern ireland especially. temperatures in the mid teens in north—west scotland and wales we are talking about 31 celsius and around london and the south—east. we will see some of the fresh air pushing through the night and tomorrow across the south—east corner and still around 16 or 17 degrees but elsewhere it's a good point to open the windows and let some of the heat building up out and let some fresh air in because you will need that as we head towards the start of next weekend and temperatures foremost as we start tomorrow will be around ten or 11 celsius. tomorrow, changes for scotland, northern ireland and northern england with more showers, one or two spots could stay dry and there could be showers in the north midlands and north wales, tomorrow sticking with a dry story, sunny spells and temperatures around 26 or 27. as we go through into friday,

more clouds drifting across scotland and northern ireland, northern england and outbreaks of rain again. still drying on the south and temperatures may be creeping up in the south—east corner to around 28 celsius. elsewhere, sticking around the high teens on the low 20s but as we go through the weekend and into next week the concern arises again, heatwave part two on its way and through the first part of next week we could see temperatures in england and wales in the mid—30s and the potential we could get to around 38 celsius. we will keep you updated, but at the time being, back to you both. matt, thank you very much. the -addfina both. matt, thank you very much. the paddling pool is staying up. golf kind of in a battle for its soul, because every one of the top golfers on the eve of the open are asking themselves, what are they in it for and what is the motivation, is it the money which is being offered by this new breakaway golf league, and

allegations of sports washing because it's coming from saudi arabia, are you challenging for the biggest trophies and you suddenly haveit biggest trophies and you suddenly have it at the open? does biggest trophies and you suddenly have it at the open?— biggest trophies and you suddenly have it at the open? does it matter? it does, have it at the open? does it matter? it does. what — have it at the open? does it matter? it does. what is _ have it at the open? does it matter? it does, what is your _ have it at the open? does it matter? it does, what is your motivation - have it at the open? does it matter? it does, what is your motivation and | it does, what is your motivation and what are you in it for. tiger woods has been speaking and he was offered close to £1 billion to go and play on this breakaway tour and he said no, and it's all about playing in those big special moments. and he says if people do go, perhaps they should be a punishment or a sanction and you should not be able to play out the really big tournaments. might be easy for him to say. i might be easy for him to say. i think golfers do 0k. at - might be easy for him to say. i think golfers do 0k. at that i might be easy for him to say. i. think golfers do 0k. at that level. but ou think golfers do 0k. at that level. but you can _ think golfers do 0k. at that level. but you can say — think golfers do 0k. at that level. but you can say it _ think golfers do ok. at that level. but you can say it if— think golfers do 0k. at that level. but you can say it if you _ think golfers do 0k. at that level. but you can say it if you turn - think golfers do 0k. at that level. | but you can say it if you turn down almost $1 billion. much of the talk before the tournament starts, has been about the future of golf. the new saudi arabia—backed liv golf tour has threatened to divide the sport, and when tiger woods adds his voice to the debate you tend to listen. our sports correspondent joe wilson is at st andrews. tiger woods practising

again at st andrews. they've sure been good for each other. 2000 woods was when woods first won the open here. now a golfer contemplating the end. i don't know how many open championships i have left here at st andrews, but i have wanted this one. you know, it started here for me in '95, and if it ends here in '22, it does. if it doesn't, it doesn't. if i get the chance to play one more, it would be great, but there is no guarantee. watching woods move around his practice round, you see the issue. maybe he is lucky to be able to walk at all after his car accident but the limp is clear. well, it's windy, the terrain is undulating. completing 18 holes is a test of stamina. it's supposed to be. there are other famous players here who have chosen a different form of golf. sergio garcia, dustinjohnson — men who are part of the rival saudi

funded liv tour but permitted to play in this open at least. lee westwood is another. woods does not agree with their choice. what they've done is turn their back on what has allowed them to get to this position. what these players are doing for guaranteed money, what is the incentive to practice? what is the incentive to go out there and earn it in the dirt? it's a prominent issue. i even spotted this topically redesigned liv t—shirt worn by a practice day spectator. woods may now be a traditionalist, standing against encroaching gales of change, but he's also a golfer still trying to get better. joe wilson, bbc news, st andrews. as always, eyes will be on tiger woods when play starts tomorrow. it was a day to forget for england in their first one day international against india yesterday. as they lost by ten wickets —

there was not one, not two, but four ducks. what's even more of a surprise, two of those were joe root and ben stokes. england all out for 110. that allowed india to calmly knock off the runs, without the loss of a wicket. climate protestors disrupted the tenth stage of the tour de france. a group of local activists had to be dragged from the course, some were even chained together at the neck, with riders held up for around ten minutes. when they got back under way denmark's magnus cort took the win, three british riders remain in the top ten of the overall standings. and we know how deep football rivalries can run. so you wonder how liverpool and manchester united fans will be feeling after this one? 4—0, united came out on top here in bangkok. now, i know this is only pre—season, but fans dont often need much to cling to, certainly not against a rival. it's no wonder some of them enjoyed this.

in what was erik ten haag's first game as manchester united manager. i would say he's getting his first piece of silverware. after all of the trophies that manchester united have won over the years, you might not be going in the cabinet. it not be going in the cabinet. it might be the only one for a while. don't say that! very low—key celebrations. you may remember earlier this week there was an astonishing clip doing the rounds on social media of an avalanche. (pause upsot atmos)(read on 00v). this is the moment when british traveller, harry shimmin was engulfed by the avalanche in the mountains in kyrgyzstan. dramatic scenes — but the good news is he took cover, survived without a scratch and joins us this morning from the safety of his hotel room. we believed that little moment out.

it got really dark, hard to breathe and, you know, the snow was pouring over the top of me and for a second itjust carried on getting worse and thatis itjust carried on getting worse and that is when i did not know what was going to happen which is probably a moment i will not forget to soon and thenit moment i will not forget to soon and then itjust kind of steadily turned into this weird kind of blizzard in the air displacement, something i'm not sure about, but it literally blew over and i wasn't covered in more than a few inches so i was able to stand up straightaway and be grateful i was still there. it’s grateful i was still there. it's really entertaining to watch but it could have been very different. fortunately just a few inches above you but you could have been buried alive, you and your pals who you were with. have you been playing it backin were with. have you been playing it back in your mind and thinking that the outcome could have been different?—

good morning. welcome to breakfast with nina warhust and sally nugent. our headlines today... and then there were eight — the remaining candidates for conservative leadership prepare to face their first round of voting. one of the major issues any of the candidates will have to grapple with this the economy. there have been concerns about how the cost of living has been affecting businesses like food manufacturing plant. there are hopes after gdp rose by 0.5%. more predictions about what this means in a few minutes.

trading standards says it's worried the market is being flooded with illicit vaping products, and the ease with which children can access them. sir mo farah is called an "inspiration" after revealing he was trafficked into the uk as a child and forced to work as a servant. i used to lock myself in our bathroom. and you cry every day. you cry every day and you tell them, "please, someone, get me out of here." no—one comes to you. with just 2a hours to go until the start of one of golf�*s biggest events, how tiger woods is taking aim at more than scotland's historic st andrews course... inch by inch, the giant sea monster is making its way onto the beach. it is making its way onto the beach. it is destined to become a huge art installation.— installation. heat is confined to the far south-east _ installation. heat is confined to the far south-east of _ installation. heat is confined to the far south-east of england l installation. heat is confined to - the far south-east of england today. the far south—east of england today. apa showers in scotland and northern heatwave _

please welcome, rishi sunak. the former chancellor, rishi sunak, has the most tory mps backing him so far, securing endorsements from the cabinet ministers, dominic raab and grant shapps, among others. mr shapps earlier on had previously put himself forward. actually, i was delighted with the support that i got, but i also recognise that what we need more than anything else is somebody who can step straight into the role of prime minister in serious times. there will be a lot of eyes on where other candidates lay their support if and when they are eliminated. morning, mrjavid. neither the former health secretary, sajid javid, who withdrew from the contest, or the home secretary, priti patel, who decided not to stand, have said who they will support instead. penny mordaunt has the second—highest number of tory mps publicly backing her. she's kept a lower profile so far, but launches her campaign this morning.

but today, support for all candidates will be put to its first test. tory mps will vote this afternoon, and anyone with fewer than 30 votes will be eliminated. successive rounds continue, where the candidate with the fewest votes will be knocked out, until only two remain. those two will go to a vote among conservative party members. the winner will be announced on the 5th of september. this bit is key, as whoever wants to be the party leader will need to appeal both to their tory mp colleagues but also the party members up and down the uk — a pitch the final two will be making for the rest of this summer. lone wells, bbc news. we're joined now by our political correspondent, ben wright. ben, voting begins today — many mps have already come out to say who they're backing. how is the race looking so far? they have said publicly what they are going to do. what they

they have said publicly what they are going to do. what they do they have said publicly what they are going to do. what they do in private is a completely different matter. some tory mps rebel in the fact they are duplicitous contests. the former chancellor currently has the most public backers. rishi sunak�*s number of supporters continues to swell, closely followed by penny mordaunt and then liz truss. we will get a leadership launch speech by penny mordaunt, trade minister today. she was a big wreck for tibet is trying to appeal to the whole party saying she is the candidate that can unite all wings. —— a big brexit supporter but she is trying to appeal. they are trying to whittle down the field from eight to two. over the summer there are many candidates will tour the country

trying to make their appeal to conservative members. they will be the ones who pick the final prime minister. as it looks today, rishi sunak is fairly confident of being one of the final two going to that contest. the scrap is for second place. these are notoriously unpredictable contest. impossible to say who the final two will be, let alone the prime minister in a week's time. . ~' ,, , . we've had an update on how the economy is doing this morning, as the monthly gdp figures have been released in the last hour showing there was 0.5% growth in may. caroline davies is at a food factory in north london for us. morning, caroline. this is better news than expected. it is, higher than many economists predicted. they thought it best it was going to be 0.1. not .5 is an improvement on that. that e—book does it mean for companies like

this? here, they are producing vegan ready meals. they are adding rice mix, adding chili and kale. companies like this have seen the price of ingredients increase, the cost of energy bills. that is feeding through to the cost of living crisis and that is why everyone is looking at the gdp figures showing how the economy is doing. if there is grace in the economy that is considered to be a good thing. —— if there is growth. hearing that gdp has gone up by not .5% in may, people might be thinking things are going on the up. these monthly figures do tend to jump around and focuses in on what happens long—term. —— the focus is on what happens long—term. talking

about travel agencies doing relatively well and dairy companies doing well because of increasing sales of i screen. we are seeing retailers dragging the economy back as well. —— sales of ice scream. people do not have as much to spend on other items. it needs to be taken in a bigger context. it is up for the month of may but that does not mean the economy is shifting altogether. mean the economy is shifting altogether-— more than a thousand girls in telford were sexually abused for decades after authorities failed to investigate offenders, and ignored obvious evidence. an independent inquiry into child sexual exploitation found that children, rather than perpetrators, were often blamed. phil mackie reports. this is the town where more than 1,000 children were sexually exploited since the late 19705. young girls were groomed, often by gangs, and subjected to some of the most appalling abuse. after three years, the findings of an independent

inquiry are damning. countless children were sexually assaulted and raped. they were deliberately humiliated, degraded. they were shared and trafficked. they were subjected to violence, and their families were threatened. they lived in fear. their lives were forever changed. they've asked over the years, "how was this allowed to happen?" the answer, he believes, is that the authorities had ignored obvious signs of child exploitation, had blamed the children and not the people responsible, and in many cases, wouldn't investigate because of nervousness about race. although the problems came to light during operation chalice when seven men of south asian descent were convicted of offences against teenage girls, this only formed part of the inquiry, which spoke to victims from many communities over many decades. i spoke to one, who was raped and trafficked, but instead of getting help, she got a criminal record. her words have been revoiced

to protect her identity. victims were being identified as child prostitutes. once you have been convicted, that label will never leave you. prosecutions are damaging to your life. some children went to prison for not paying the fines. convictions should be completely expunged. there's been a wholehearted apology from telford and wrekin borough council and an unequivocal one from west mercia police. now campaigners say they want to ensure that both of those agencies, and the others, all implement the 47 recommendations that the report has made. survivors like scarlett say they'll campaign to ensure that in future children are listened to. i had social workers' involvement. i had police. ihad, um... there was a lot of people involved in my life, but nobody asked any questions. do you think those questions are being asked now? i think that we're getting somewhere where they're starting to be asked, but there's still a long way to go.

phil mackie, bbc news, telford. the former head of britain's armed forces has said he would "order a thorough investigation" into allegations that sas troops killed detainees in afghanistan if he were still in charge. lord richards said the allegations were "worrying" and he had "no doubt" his successor would want to investigate them. bbc panorama found evidence that one sas unit operating in afghanistan during that time may have been responsible for sir unlawful deaths in one six—month tour of duty. sri lanka has declared a state of emergency after the country's president fled on a militaryjet, amid mass protests over its economic crisis. the country's air force confirmed the 73—year—old flew to the maldives with his wife and two security officials. he is accused of overseeing corruption and economic mismanagement that have bankrupted the country and triggered the worst financial crisis on record.

from eastern africa with fake documents when he was nine years old. he's been speaking to amol rajan. welcome. thank you. where am i sat? over here? yeah, just there. sir mo farah is not the man millions think they know. now i'm coming to terms with it, talking about it, let alone, you know, coming to tell the public and tell people. i didn't even have the courage to talk to my own members of family. i was only tiny really — new, because i didn't feel comfortable. i felt vulnerable, felt at times, lonely. and if i can't share it with myself, how can i share it with the whole world? he shot to national and internationalfame by winning two olympic gold medals at london 2012. commentator: it's gold! he's one of britain's most—decorated olympians. he was knighted in 2017 for services to athletics and has become a regular on tv screens and newspaperfront pages. this is the visa to come to the uk.

but in a tv documentary, airing tonight on bbc one, farah reveals his real name is hussein abdi kahin, and that he was illegally trafficked to the uk as a child for the purposes of domestic servitude. how quickly were you aware that actually your life was going to be very, very tough, and you weren't going to be reunited with family and you're going to live a very different life to the one that you thought you were coming for? pretty much early on. i knew my life would be different. living with that lady. i honestly, as much as i can think and made it more a fantasy thing, and go "i'll get to go to school. i get to play with other kids." i never did any of that. i wasn't allowed to play with any other kids. i wasn't allowed to be myself. i had to cook, clean, and half the time, more than half the time was abused. and that was tough for me.

i look around and there was no—one there. and all i ever wanted as a kid was to have my parents, or to have people who care for you. but then, early on, i knew at that point, no—one was going to be there for me. so ijust learned to block it out. he eventually confided in a teacher, who helped him alert social services, move to a new family, and become a british citizen, as mo farah. it was then that he discovered running. what was it like for you living this kind of double life and becoming globally famous? there's a lot i couldn't say, and, in my mind as a kid, often i try and think about at that moment where i made a decision for myself, where i used to lock myself in that bathroom. and you cry every day. you cry every day and tell them, "please, someone

get me out of here." no—one comes to you. so you learn to lock that up. so i told myself, "i'm not going to get emotional. i'm going to lock that up inside. and just carry on." even myself, it was hard for me to admit what has happened. what are your emotions, tania? both now that he's able to talk about this, but when you think back to what he must have gone through. i experienced a whole range of emotions when i first realised what his background really was. my first reaction was heartbreak and sadness for him. ijust immediately pictured nine—year—old mo and being so helpless and vulnerable. and then, equally, i felt angry at the people that did that to him, that put him through that. i don't know how anyone can live with themselves — treating a child that way. and you know, lots of sympathy for mo and confusion as to why, you know, why him? why was he brought here under those circumstances? i've known mo for, gosh, you know, 25 years—plus.

and he's always been very guarded with emotions. he doesn't show them. he's been able tojust bury every emotion possible and just show happiness. and that's... you know, it's not natural. i think people... it's normal to feel sad and angry and upset. mo doesn't allow himself to, but he's now finally giving himself permission to fill those feelings of hurt and pain. and that's valid. it's ok. there's been an extraordinary reaction globally to this — these revelations — social media, front page news in the uk, headlines around the world, the fact that mo farah had a different name and a different story to the one that most people know. it's been overwhelmingly amazing to see the support out there that we've been getting. we've had floods of messages. what have you made of the reaction around the world? it's been incredible to have so much support. thisjust shows, you know, a lot of people behind me. and it's nice to have that as well as my family. were you a bit worried in advance

that people might think, a, that you'd sort of deceived them or b, that it might have legal consequences for you now? that's always my story. and as i said, i wasn't even comfortable enough to talk about it with my family. i couldn't talk about it publicly. it has taken me a long time to come to this. but i'm glad i made this documentary to show people the reality of what really happened to me as a child. the bbc has spoken to the home office, and they said, they told us, and i quote, "no action whatsoever will be taken against sir mo, and to suggest otherwise is wrong." how does that make you feel? yes. it makes me relieved. you know, me. this is my country. amol rajan, bbc news. that is just unimaginable courage,

when he describes those feelings as a child, a small child, of all that pain and not having anybody to talk to about it and nobody coming to support him. you can watch the full documentary, the real mo farah, on the bbc iplayer now. it'll also be shown on bbc one tonight at 9pm. all ambulance services in england have been put on the "highest alert level", because of extremely high demand. a combination of staff absences due to covid, hot weather and delays handing patients over to a&e units have caused problems according to nhs trusts. to find out how serious the problem is, let's speak to dr ian higginson, vice president of the royal college of emergency medicine, who's in devon this morning. morning to you. what sort of pressures are ambulance services in england and are today? the ambulance services themselves _ england and are today? the ambulance services themselves describe _ england and are today? the ambulance services themselves describe what - england and are today? the ambulance services themselves describe what is i services themselves describe what is called reap four, it is meant to

time, often in pain or distress, and we know, we absolutely know patients are coming to harm. that means patients are dying or becoming more sick than they need to be because we cannot give them the care they need. in the real world patients are suffering and staff are suffering and you can see it in the faces and demeanour of those we work with base in emergency services and in hospital emergency teams. those who michael and ambulance _ hospital emergency teams. those who michael and ambulance are _ hospital emergency teams. those who michael and ambulance are told - hospital emergency teams. those who michael and ambulance are told there | michael and ambulance are told there might not be one for a considerable time and it is suggested they find another way to get themselves to an emergency department. in what scenarios should people be doing that? it scenarios should people be doing that? , , _.. scenarios should people be doing that? , , ., . ., that? it is very typical advice to rive. that? it is very typical advice to give- each _ that? it is very typical advice to give. each situation _ that? it is very typical advice to give. each situation is - that? it is very typical advice to | give. each situation is different. in these days, the ambulance service will advise some patients whether or not they feel it is safe for them to

victims of serious sexual assault have told bbc london they've been traumatised by the treatment they received from the met police when reporting their attacks. new figures show the number of rape survivors withdrawing their cases has risen by 7 percent in the capital since 2019. the victims' commissioner for london now wants them to be supported by an independent hub — not met officers. it's frustrating for me, five years working as a critical friend with the met to try and move them forward and theyjust haven't moved forward. in fact, they've gone backwards, which is frustrating, because i can't have victims being treated like this any longer. i was here to improve the victims' experience and if i cannot do that without bringing the met with me, i will have to find another way. the metropolitan police says it's dedicated to supporting everyone who comes forward, and is committed to reversing the statistics and increasing convictions. the rise in the cost of living is hitting how much we take part in sporting activities.

according to a survey marking ten years since the capital hosted the olympic games — almost half of londoners have cut back on exercise due to financial constraints. the poll by london sport found lower income families were most affected. a year on from the intense rainstorms ofjuly 2021 — a group of london agencies say they remain committed to tackling the risk of flash flooding. around 1,500 properties were flooded — with more than a month's rainfall in just over one hour last year. recently the mayor wrote to thousands of basemement homeowners to warn them of their vulnerability. a few problems on the tubes this morning. minor delays on the central line and hammersmith and city, with severe delays on the district line. northern and overground lines are both part suspended. it's definitely hot, but let's get more on the weather with elizabeth. hello. good morning. feeling slightly cooler for today and thursday

and friday than it was earlier on through the week but certainly still feeling very warm with temperatures above the seasonal average and they are set to soar once again over the weekend. in fact on sunday and on monday too, which could be even hotter, and there is a met office warning in place for extreme heat. for this morning, another warm start to the day, uncomfortable for sleeping last night. there are bits of pieces of cloud around this morning but the cloud will thin and break to give us lots of sunshine and a lot more sunshine than we saw yesterday and temperatures will be that little bit lower, so peaking in the high 20s in celsius, maybe nudging 30 degrees in central london, the winds are light and the uv and pollen levels are both high. as we head through this evening and overnight, it will feel a little fresher and a little more comfortable for sleeping but still the temperatures really taking their time to drop away and this is how we end the night, between 1a and 16 celsius. tomorrow, another slight dip in temperature, lots of sunshine around, staying dry and the same on friday but temperatures starting to build again this weekend and by sunday and monday we could be seeing some

of our records threatened. keep an eye on the forecast. lots of ideas on how to keep cool on the bbc weather website. i'll be backjust after 9am. now here's sally and nina. see you soon. hello, this is breakfast with nina warhurst and sally nugent. trading standards in england and wales have told the bbc they are worried the market is being flooded with illicit vaping products — and they're concerned about the ease with which children have access to them. it comes as complaints to trading standards about illegal sales of vaping products increased significantly from tens per month to hundreds. rachel burden has been to newcastle to see first hand how big an issue underage vaping is in the city. go into any city or town centre and you are likely to see young people puffing on vapes. while they do not contain tobacco, they do contain nicotine, the chemical that makes people addicted to smoking.

how long have you been vaping for? five years. so you started quite young. yeah. what about you ? three months. what drew you to it? the flavours, the smell. would you say you are addicted? 100%. these are some examples of some of the most popular vapes available to buy and they are all bright coloured, slimline and come in a range of flavours and would typically cost between £7—8. so how are teenagers getting hold of them? trading standards have been worried about shops selling vaping products to under 18s. here in newcastle they are carrying out spot checks on shops they have intelligence may be breaking the law. we will conduct a test purchase exercise. we joined them in the operation where they sent a 17 and 15—year—old girl into stores to see whether they are sold vaping products. we gave the teenagers

secret recording equipment to film what happened. trading standards test purchasers went into ten shops and while the majority of shopkeepers did refuse to sell to the underage girls, on two occasions one of the under 185 were illegally sold vaping products. we have got these three bars that have been sold to our child volunteers doing the test purchases. a couple here are compliant, but should not have been sold to children. this one is of particular concern as there are a000 puffs are in there, and normally you get about 600—700. they asked for id but one of them didn't mind that we didn't have any id. and the other one didn't even ask for anything. trading standards carry out investigations like this before taking any actions against the shops in question. how big a problem is this in generalfor you, the selling of vapes to kids? at the moment, it is massive.

the single use vapes, the colour, the flavour, the styles which are quite child appealing. 5live have carried out research with an online network which suggests that of those who responded, almost two thirds of secondary school teachers see vaping is a problem, with half of them saying they caught pupils vaping in the last year and around a fifth say they found children as young as 11 vaping. what impact is this having on teenagers? we met dominic and his mum. dominic is 17 and has been vaping since he was 15. i was smoking beforehand and my mates started getting them and i preferred them to cigarettes. how common would you say it is amongst you and your friends? very. most of my friends smoke or vape. about 90%. and mum, you know about this? how do you feel about it? not happy. it is too accessible.

the colours are projected to these youngsters, as in the colours, the flavours, the packaging. so what are the health risks for young people? vaping products are for smokers and ex—smokers to keep away from cigarettes, not products for people who never smoked or those who are young and are perhaps smoking occasionally. we need to keep these e—cigarettes away from young people. we don't know the long—term health harms. far less risky than smoking, but ideally we don't want young people to be using any device that harms their health. the uk vaping industry association say... whether it is plain packaging, stronger regulation of products or cracking down on the shops, there is a huge challenge to tackle the popularity of teen vaping.

a spokesperson for the department of health and social care said: 'there are no current plans to change the fines but we'll keep it under review�*. and rachel has joined us on the sofa to talk more about this. and to talk more about this. this is because you notice! a and this is because you noticed, as a parent this was becoming more of an issue. ' . , . ~ a parent this was becoming more of an issue.

where they put questions out to teachers and they asked on our behalf, is vaping a problem in their school, and of the 3300 teachers who responded, two thirds said yes, vaping is an issue and of those who caught children of a pen, the youngest, 20% said, the youngest child they caught vaping was 11. —— who caught children vaping. i child they caught vaping was 11. -- who caught children vaping. i know ou want who caught children vaping. i know you want to — who caught children vaping. i know you want to get — who caught children vaping. i know you want to get across _ who caught children vaping. i know you want to get across the - who caught children vaping. i know you want to get across the point i you want to get across the point they are not directly comparable to cigarettes but you buy cigarettes and their images all over them with health warnings and i thought you had brought in some highlighter pens. had brought in some highlighter ens. . . had brought in some highlighter ens. ., , ., , “ pens. that is what they look like and this is _ pens. that is what they look like and this is the _ pens. that is what they look like and this is the thing _ pens. that is what they look like and this is the thing that - pens. that is what they look like and this is the thing that some l and this is the thing that some parents do not know what they are. they do look like pens. the parents do not know what they are. they do look like pens.— parents do not know what they are. they do look like pens. the rise and a lot of teenagers _ they do look like pens. the rise and a lot of teenagers vaping _ they do look like pens. the rise and a lot of teenagers vaping has - a lot of teenagers vaping has coincided with the emergence of these disposable vaping and in aim —— in america they have put restrictions on these brightly coloured vaping which means the uk

manufacturer who says that the flavours are important to help adults quit smoking and we also heard from a lot of ex—smokers who said, yes, it's the flavours that kind of help me make the shift, so nothing is straightforward in all of this and it is not that vapes equals bad but they are associated health risks with nicotine addiction and we have heard from teenagers who talked about their addiction to nicotine. we had a gp on earlier who said that the age at which people are getting into vapes, 15 or 16, that's a really important time of brain development and it's bad to develop an addiction at that stage. that development and it's bad to develop an addiction at that stage.— an addiction at that stage. that is where the distinction _ an addiction at that stage. that is where the distinction is. - an addiction at that stage. that is where the distinction is. with - where the distinction is. with cigarettes it's the harm that comes from the toxins that cause cancer but with vapes you are talking about nicotine, and some people believe we spoke to one of the top children's respiratory consultants in the country that there are things we should be concerned about when it comes to pure nicotine addiction and she said adolescent brains are more vulnerable to addiction and also

said there are problems associated with the impact of nicotine on the functioning of blood vessels, neurodegenerative disorders, so nicotine itself can be a problem and when you hear teenagers speaking about the withdrawal when they try and stop vaping, headaches, feeling really sick, feeling reallyjittery, it indicates that it is not necessarily a great thing for young people to be addicted to these kinds of devices stop one of the challenges as we saw in your report is kids getting hold of them and how they got hold of them. find is kids getting hold of them and how they got hold of them.— is kids getting hold of them and how they got hold of them. and then they ass them they got hold of them. and then they pass them to — they got hold of them. and then they pass them to each _ they got hold of them. and then they pass them to each other— they got hold of them. and then they pass them to each other and - they got hold of them. and then they pass them to each other and sell- pass them to each other and sell them on. �* . pass them to each other and sell them on. �*, ,., pass them to each other and sell themon. �*, ., ., them on. it's so easy. if you have a teenager. — them on. it's so easy. if you have a teenager. and _ them on. it's so easy. if you have a teenager, and you _ them on. it's so easy. if you have a teenager, and you say, _ them on. it's so easy. if you have a teenager, and you say, my - them on. it's so easy. if you have a i teenager, and you say, my goodness, these things are meant to be banned for under 18 is and theyjust laugh at you. it's really, really easy to buy them. and trading standards were more powers to clamp down on shops. anyone can sell them, that is another issue. they get passed around at school and we even heard from a 16—year—old lad who has been

a vaping since he was 12 and i said, where do you do it, on the way to school, in the toilets, even in the classroom. i said, school, in the toilets, even in the classroom. isaid, you school, in the toilets, even in the classroom. i said, you vape in class? it's hard to detect. you don't smell it like a cigarette and you cannot see smoke. you can sometimes see the kind of vape as it is exhaled but you can get away with it and that is the thing that parents don't always know because you can hide one of these quite easily, put in your bag, so, yeah. and it's not entirely clear what the long invocations might be. taste and it's not entirely clear what the long invocations might be. we don't know. long invocations might be. we don't know- there — long invocations might be. we don't know. there is _ long invocations might be. we don't know. there is a _ long invocations might be. we don't know. there is a big _ long invocations might be. we don't know. there is a big question - long invocations might be. we don't know. there is a big question over l know. there is a big question over it but at the moment it is so early daysin it but at the moment it is so early days in terms of the growth of these kinds of devices —— long—term implications. d0 kinds of devices -- long-term implications.— kinds of devices -- long-term implications. do put them away somewhere _ implications. do put them away somewhere safe. _ implications. do put them away somewhere safe. i— implications. do put them away somewhere safe. i genuinely i implications. do put them away i somewhere safe. i genuinely nearly picked up my highlighter pen there. thanks, rachel. now matt with the morning weather. back up on the roof in london where it is warming up already and we saw

temperatures drop to around 22 celsius through the night and it's a good dealfresher celsius through the night and it's a good deal fresher elsewhere but celsius through the night and it's a good dealfresher elsewhere but are pleasant summers day to come for many. let's look at the forecast for today because sunny spells across most parts of the uk, one or two showers here and there and compared with recent days it is feeling cooler but it is still warm enough in the sunshine and still we have heatwave conditions in the far south—east corner of england and it's here across southern counties that the cold front is starting to push in with more cloud, one or two showers and it is introducing more comfortable air across the uk as it heads south and it has cleared the cloud that england and wales for yesterday so wales, the midlands, northern england, more sunshine to come and sunshine and a few showers and here temperatures will be in the mid to high teens at their highest where across england and wales we are talking low to mid 20s with the exception being the south—east corner of england where we could

have 29 or 30 celsius. it stays hot here but even here it cools down a bit through the night and into tomorrow and still an uncomfortable night but maybe not as bad as last night but maybe not as bad as last night with temperatures down to 15 or16 night with temperatures down to 15 or 16 and elsewhere, ten or 11 celsius tomorrow morning and starting with a few showers in the north and west. through thursday we see showers develop more widely across scotland, northern ireland and northern england so a greater chance of rain coming your way but sunshine in between and wales, the midlands, southern england, sunny day and pleasantly warm as well with temperatures in the mid to high 20s, so continuing the cooling down process for many. into friday an area of cloud pushing in and it will bring a cloudy day, probably the cloudless day of the week with outbreaks of rain or drizzle and maybe some drizzle but further south no rain and it stays largely dry and pretty warm in the south with temperatures in the mid to high 20s.

the high teens and low 20s for many but as we go through the weekend and into next week the temperatures will build and an even more significant speu build and an even more significant spell of heat heading our way, monday and tuesday we could see temperatures in england and wales hit the mid 30s and there is potential for record—breaking heat with the high 30s possible on tuesday. the met office have their excrete —— extreme heat warnings out but we will keep you up—to—date on breakfast. taste but we will keep you up-to-date on breakfast. ~ ., ., ~ ., breakfast. we are talking about where uolf breakfast. we are talking about where golf is — breakfast. we are talking about where golf is headed. _ breakfast. we are talking about where golf is headed. tiger i breakfast. we are talking about i where golf is headed. tiger woods will be teeing _ where golf is headed. tiger woods will be teeing up _ where golf is headed. tiger woods will be teeing up at _ where golf is headed. tiger woods will be teeing up at the _ where golf is headed. tiger woods will be teeing up at the open i will be teeing up at the open championship turning down close to £1 billion or $1 billion tojoin championship turning down close to £1 billion or $1 billion to join the rival golf league and when you consider his net worth is 1.7 billion, he could have owned it overnight but he said i'm not doing it and i will stick with the status quo. abs. it and i will stick with the status a uo, �* ., ., it and i will stick with the status uuo. ., ., , . , it and i will stick with the status .uo, �* ., ., , . , exactl , quo. a matter of principle. exactly, it is backed — quo. a matter of principle. exactly, it is backed by _ quo. a matter of principle. exactly, it is backed by saudi _ quo. a matter of principle. exactly, it is backed by saudi arabia - quo. a matter of principle. exactly, it is backed by saudi arabia and i it is backed by saudi arabia and questions about human rights and

it was a day to forget for england in their first one day international against india yesterday. as they lost by ten wickets — there was not one, not two but four ducks. what's even more of a surprise, two of those were joe root and ben stokes. england all out for 110. that allowed india to calmly knock off the runs, without the loss of a wicket. you just can't get the teams in all other formats. you just can't get the teams in all otherformats. the you just can't get the teams in all other formats. the test team was really poor, and the shorter format teams were doing well and now the teams were doing well and now the team have a resurgence in the one—day team are falling away of it. you are asking a lot. but one-day team are falling away of it. you are asking a lot.— one-day team are falling away of it. you are asking a lot. but we demand a lot. you you are asking a lot. but we demand a lot- you are _ you are asking a lot. but we demand a lot. you are right. _ you are asking a lot. but we demand a lot. you are right. you _ you are asking a lot. but we demand a lot. you are right. you never- you are asking a lot. but we demand a lot. you are right. you never see i a lot. you are right. you never see joe root getting a duck. we will let him off after the summer he has had so far. he him off after the summer he has had so far. . . . . him off after the summer he has had sofar. , , , ., ., , so far. he has set his standards hiuh. there'll be some double—takes going on this morning in weston—super—mare, as an old offshore oil rig from the north sea lands on the town's beach. the see monster is set to become a huge art installation and will have gardens, an amphitheare and a waterfall
