19 children and two teachers killed amid systematic failures and poor decision—making. that's the damning conclusion from the most exhaustive probe on why it took nearly 400 police and other officers more than an hour to confront and kill and 18—year—old gunman here in may and what texan legislators described as a chaotic scene marked by a lack of clear leadership and sufficient urgency. their report found that law enforcement responders failed to adhere to their active shooter training and failed to prioritise saving the lives of innocent victims over their own safety, blaming the officers and their lackadaisical approach. and their lackadaisical approach-— and their lackadaisical auroach. ., ., approach. people of uvalde before this, _ approach. people of uvalde before this, felt _ approach. people of uvalde before this, felt it - approach. people of uvalde before this, felt it couldn'tl before this, felt it couldn't happen here. they felt that. that's the false sense of security i worry about. i think some of the same systems that we found here that failed that day are across the entire state and country.

police chief pete arredondo, who many thought was in charge that day, was suspended, pending investigation, and has since resigned. but the report points out there were better trained and equipped responders present. as it's released, it poses another urgent question, whether the security systems in many american schools can be trusted. mark lobel, bbc news. joining me now is texas state senator roland gutierrez. thanks very much forjoining us. it's a preliminary report but doesn't confirm what your fears were in any case?- fears were in any case? yes. i've been _ fears were in any case? yes. i've been seeing _ fears were in any case? yes. i've been seeing systemic i i've been seeing systemic failures since day to mark. in the media report —— i didn't need a media report to tell me the system failed these kids, we had medication errors, human errors, human frailty, the kids were braver than the police that day.

2:14 am
the three women and two men all said they would not be prepared to give borisjohnson a job in their government. here's our political correspondent, ben wright. there's plenty ofjeopardy with these debates. front runners hoping to hold their advantage and not to trip up. their closest rivals jockeying to break from the pack. a chance to dazzle for the outside bets. the race to be tory leader and the next prime minister remains wide open, and that's why the fight is getting fierce. rishi, you have raised taxes to the highest level in 70 years. that is not going to drive economic growth. you raised national insurance, even though people like me opposed it in cabinet at the time. i'd love to stand here and say, "look, i'll cut this tax, "that tax and another tax, and it will all be ok." but you know what, it won't. there's a cost to these things. that's the current foreign secretary attacking the man who was chancellor until a few days ago. a glimpse of what was to come. tax plans again dominated the argument about the cost of living crisis.
2:15 am
where we really need to concentrate is on growth. and under your tax trajectory, that is going to be much harder. you're genuinely proposing that we borrow to fund our day—to—day spending, putting those bills on a credit card?! literally, jeremy corbyn didn't think that that the right approach! there are lots of tax and spending promises flying around this contest, and there was an appeal for candourfrom some of the candidates. while i was working at the treasury it was always a choice between difficult option a, terrible option b, mad option c, and we need to be honest with the public about how difficult things are. i'm finding it very difficult to understand who is disowning and who is defending the record of the last few years that they've been in government. it's pretty confusing to me, anyway. they were then asked about the reputation of the man they are seeking to replace in number 10. would you have borisjohnson in your cabinet if you were pm? if borisjohnson was watching this, he would have seen serving cabinet colleagues and tory mps vow to make a break with his premiership. keir starmer in two years' time will hold that record
2:16 am
against us and we need to make sure we are winning conservative seats across the country. and even really good people lent credibility to the chaos. serving in government is not easy, it requires taking difficult decisions. tom has never done that. it's very easy for him to criticise what we have been doing. we have been out there on the front line, making the case... sorry, i have been i on the front line, kemi. the five candidates were asked to put a question to each other and the mudslinging got even messier. when we both worked in the treasury, myself and other ministers raised the issue of covid loan fraud and you dismissed us and it has cost taxpayers £17 billion, why didn't you take us seriously? in your past, you have been both a liberal democrat and remainer. i'm just wondering which one you regretted most? the reason i am a conservative is because i saw kids _ in my school being let down in leeds. | i saw not get the i opportunities, not get the proper educational- standards that you might have got at your school, rishi. rishi sunak drew the most

2:27 am
very dangerous. now, overthe next few hours, temperatures come down to reasonable levels actually as we start of monday morning, 14 to 18. if you are early, open your doors and windows let that cool air into the house for 50 minutes or so and then shut everything, because as we go through the day, shut those windows, shut the doors, shut the curtains. it is really effective at locking the heat out of the house and it will be an extraordinary day. temperatures widely for england and wales reaching the mid to high 30s, low 40s in places. this is dangerous heat, it will have an effect on quite a few people for their health, and it is not just those extreme temperatures by date. ten o'clock monday night it will be hideous, with temperatures widely still into the 30s. tuesday, a bit of rain coming into northern ireland, we've got some fresh air eventually dropping the temperatures here, but for scotland, england and wales, it is another day of dangerous heat. temperatures could hit around 41 celsius, smashing the
2:28 am
all—time uk temperature record and bringing further health impacts for some people. it is really important to keep your property as cool as can be. keep curtains closed all day, shut windows and doors all day, except first thing in the morning when it might be a bit cooler, drink plenty of water, and remember, a cooling shower could help you if you are feeling like you are struggling to cope with the extreme heat that we will have on both monday and tuesday. the heatwave will come to an end. on wednesday, we have a weather front pushing it wood is bringing some thundery rain, still quite hot across the east, but not dangerous levels, and in the west, temperatures much more comfortable.
