good morning, welcome to breakfast with sally nugent and jon kay. our headlines today. commentator: fran kirby goes for the chip. england's lionesses roar into the final of the euros to the delight of fans. i thought, "oh my, this is going to be hard." and then, barn, 4—0. it was a great game, though — great game. after a thrilling night in sheffield, england will look to

triumph in the final on sunday. i am ina triumph in the final on sunday. i am in a misty leeds looking at how the team's performances are inspiring the next generation. the fourth day of strikes in just over five weeks as 40,000 network rail workers walked out at midnight. i will look at why things have not moved forward and what it might mean for you. i foryou. iam on for you. i am on the motorway. i think you already have a million calls about an accident. the chilling 999 call after a lorry piles into stationary traffic. we hear about the lives affected one year after the crash. good morning, we start with some sunshine in places. the cloud will build, producing showers. 0verthe next days, it will turn warmer. all the details throughout the programme. it's wednesday, the 27th ofjuly.

whoa! england are through to the final of the women's european championship after thrashing sweden in last night's semi—final. we were cautious yesterday saying it was a real challenge. i was cautious. the lionesses beat the tournament's top—ranked side 4—0 to set up a clash with either germany or france, who play tonight, at wembley on sunday. 0ur correspondent natalie pirks was at bramall lane. the relief was palpable, the joy was intense. and the dancing? fit for a wembley final. sweden are ranked second in the world and, from the off, were intent on showing us why. commentator: earps forced into a very early save. - england yet again started with the same xi sarina wiegman had put her faith in throughout. within four minutes, top scorer beth mead almost repaid that trust.

0h, on the bar. heart—in—mouth moments. england's goalkeeper busier than in all previous matches. england needed to take a breath, and with calm heads came the breakthrough. mead! she's done it again. england lead in the semifinal. the ecstatic gasps of 30,000 england fans inhaling the ball into the net for mead's sixth of the tournament. half—time brought a welcome respite and a chance to remind each other to leave no regrets on the bramall lane pitch. lucy bronze got the memo. lucy bronze strikes goalfor england! the dreaded var check meant an anxious wait. finally, confirmation came of how close it was. var once again sweden's nemesis. ellen white had played her part.

the dynamic crowd favourite alessia russo came on, hoping to make another impact. she would get her chance, but not before england once again had to be alert. oh, what a save, earps. it wasn't a clean shot, but the save needed to be perfection. mary earps, take a bow. from one goalkeeper�*s pleasure to an absolute howler. russo an absolute menace in sweden's box. but this backheel was audacious. oh, my. lindahl will never want to see that again. but if she thought it was over, she was wrong. england's march to the wembley arch was becoming a canter and fran kirby's mastery in midfield reaped the rewards she so deserved. delirium inside bramall lane! and when the final whistle blew and that semifinal hoodoo had been banished, the emotions could finally flow for players and for fans. i think on the full—time whistle, we didn't really know what to do.

as you can tell, unbelievable atmosphere. we're ecstatic to be in the final. oh, it was brilliant. absolutely brilliant. i'm buzzing for the final. ithought, "oh, my, this is going to be hard." - and then, bam, 4—0. it was a great game, though. a great game. crazy. 4-0. who would have thought it? semifinal, onto the final now. so, yeah, great stuff. i think sarina wiegman's done a fantasticjob. yeah. she's brought the youth back in. she's got experience there. these fans, these players, in sarina they trust. it's been less than a year she's been in thejob, but the impact she's made is clear. 13 years it had been since england had been in the final of a major tournament. who would bet against them now? natalie pirks, bbc news, sheffield. my my word. the confidence. who is going to bet against them now?

the other semifinal night to get through. france and germany. sunday. we have been here before. let's get more reaction from john, who is in leeds this morning. iam sure i am sure everybody there is delighted. i am sure everybody there is delighted-— i am sure everybody there is delighted. i am sure everybody there is deliahted. ., ., ., . ., ., delighted. what a night once again from england- _ delighted. what a night once again from england. edge _ delighted. what a night once again from england. edge of— delighted. what a night once again from england. edge of your- delighted. what a night once again from england. edge of your seat i from england. edge of your seat stuff. when you think of the goals. georgia stanway�*s gold, as england got past spain in the quarterfinal and alessia russo, her backheel, and you sensed something special as they knocked out the top team left in the tournament. 13 years since their last major final appearance. they have exited at the semifinal stage at the last three major tournaments but now we have a final to look forward to at wembley. we will reflect on that and the wider impact of this run from the england side

has had on the game. we loved it. plenty of reaction on social media. the duke and duchess of cambridge said congratulations on making it to the final on sunday... prime minister borisjohnson said it was a fantastic result... gary lineker tweeting that it was a fabulous performance... and the former england player, i love this... i know people were dancing. how about this, a girl enjoying it at bramall lane, dancing in the crowd, as so many words. millions watching. the hottest ticket in town inside bramall lane

stadium last night. she was not on her own dancing in the stands. we were all doing a bit of that. i know there is talk about football coming home, is it coming home? can the england women do it? it might not be homejust yet but england women do it? it might not be home just yet but it is certainly in the right postcode. we can smell it. thank you. what a night it was. brilliant. we will reflect on that. there is severe travel disruption again today, as 40,000 rail workers take further strike action in a continuing dispute over pay, jobs and working conditions. only 20% of rail services are set to run today — highlighted by the red lines. but even these services will be limited and shortened. the grey lines show the huge swathes of britain that will have no rail access at all. transport correspondent katy austin reports.

much of the railway has come to a halt as members of the rmt union walk out again. these passengers at preston yesterday had heard disruption was on the way. we did have things planned for tomorrow. so with the strike going on, we're not going to be able to go anywhere, because we need the train. if we are to plan anything, we're going to be a bit snookered. but we're staying local, anyway. to be honest, i understand why they're striking. yeah, i can understand that. i support them. for the money that they want, that's fair enough. _ itjust means a little inconvenience. as with the first of these national strikes injune, half the network is closed. some places have no trains at all. 0verall, about 20% of services will run, and they'll stop at about 6:30 this evening. but the last trains on some long—distance routes will depart early or mid—afternoon. a section of the workforce striking today are network rail signallers who control the movement of trains across the entire network. we normally have about 4000 of those, but today we've only got about 400.

and they can only control and look after a skeleton service today, which is why we have so few trains running. and those trains are going to be finishing a lot earlier than normal. for instance, the last train out of here up to liverpool is about 3:00 tomorrow afternoon. so please, if you are thinking of travelling by train today, do check before you travel. many commuters can work from home, but lots ofjourneys will still be affected, including some summer—holiday trips and getting to the second women's euros semifinal tonight in milton keynes. a deal in the ongoing dispute feels far away, at the moment. the rmt said it would continue to talk, but a huge chasm remained between them and rail employers around pay, job security and working conditions. it has scheduled more strikes for the 18th and 20th of august. the union said a strike was its only option amid a cost—of—living crisis. we haven't rushed into this, bearing in mind we've been seeking a settlement for two years now in our industry. we're not aiming to inflict massive disruption on ordinary people

going about their lives, but we have got literally nowhere else to go. the rail industry is under pressure to save money after the impact of the pandemic. bosses argue modernisation is needed and reforms must happen to afford higher pay without taxpayers or passengers having to pay more. the transport secretary, grant shapps, today accused union leaders of trying to cause as much disruption as possible and urged the rmt to step back from industrial action, or risk passengers turning their backs on the railway for good. for now, people are being told don't take the train today unless yourjourney is necessary. katy austin, bbc news. let's go to nina who is at london's euston station. good morning. 0nce good morning. once again you are there. a deserted london euston. it will be a difficult day for travellers today. that's right.

it was exactly five weeks ago i stood in this spot and said perhaps they would not be the last of the strikes and here we are again. have a look behind me at the departure boards. six trains on the list but that takes us up to 8.30. they go up to the north west, north wales, scotland. passengers will know how busyit scotland. passengers will know how busy it can get and how unusual this is. the government said it is up to network rail who manage the train companies and say they have offered them a good deal and they did not want it but the result is 40,000 workers walking out at midnight and let's look at what that means if you are a regular railway user. 20% of

planned services running today but expect the number of trains to vary depending on where you live so look at what is happening where you are. where they run they will start later and finish earlier so from 7:30am. the train to edinburgh will leave it 2pm in the last train to manchester is just after 2pm in the last train to manchester isjust after 3:30pm this 2pm in the last train to manchester is just after 3:30pm this afternoon. in some parts of the country no services whatsoever, including popular holiday spots people might be heading to. blackpool, bournemouth, great yarmouth among them. a big knock on effect for the london underground. if you plan to use the tube make sure you check before you travel and you are told not to travel unless necessary. if it is too late in you have bought a ticket, you will be able to get a refund if the service is cancelled

or to change the date to a later time. there will be a knock—on effect and the impact tomorrow will be felt. and another strike planned on saturday and further strikes if things do not move forward on the 18th and 20th of august. network rail say there is a deal and they are offering a 4% increase in pay and another 4% if terms and conditions are met but unions say the terms and conditions are not good enough and they say they would include compulsory redundancy and in their words a chasm remains and they say they are fighting for what is fair. we will speak to the union and network rail throughout the morning. thank you. vulnerable people are being pushed into destitution, according to a group of mps who are calling for the government to stop docking benefits payments during the cost of living crisis. the work and pensions committee says around two million claimants have money deducted each month to cover debt, advances and overpayments, as our consumer affairs correspondent colletta smith

reports. life isn't easy for jodine at the moment. and she's not alone. i'm trying my hardest. that's all i can do. that's what anyone can do is just try their hardest, but it's like our hardest is just not enough. i will be blamed if i am not able to provide for my children. but it's not me that's in charge of how much i'm able to provide for my children right now. she's got four kids and depends on her universal credit payments. right, so i'm meant to be entitled to 1,750 a month. but because there is a benefits cap, i am reduced to only... i think its 1,350 a month. and then another 100 comes off of that. with rising prices and less money coming in, she's had to make some really hard decisions.

like, i can't afford my life insurance any more, so that's really, really worrying. if something happens to me, my children are going to get nothing. i can't even do a decent food shop any more because...food just costs too much! half of all universal credit claimants have money taken out, before the payment hits their account, by an average of £62 less each month. the most common reason is to cover the five—week universal credit advance — given when people moved over onto the system. but it can also be taken to repay crisis loans, debts to third parties like councils and utility companies, and to take back overpayments made by government error. as the cost of living is set to increase, a cross—party group of mps want the government to put a pause on those deductions. given that benefits are already at a very low level, if you've got deductions taken out of those, as well, then you've got really serious hardship. and its people who are having

deductions taken out of their benefit at the moment who are having to choose between heating and eating and having to skip meals to make sure that their children get a meal, those kind of things. and the deductions are making those problems very much worse. a committee also want to see the benefit cap raised for everyone, the committee also want to see the benefit cap raised for everyone, but the department for work and pensions said they had already restricted the total amount of deductions that could be taken to 25% of payment, and doubled the amount of time people have to pay money back to two years. asjodine braces herself for higher bills, that doesn't feel like enough, but she thinks that pausing deductions would help. it would at least give me a standing point to kind of put myself back on an even keel. colletta smith, bbc news. scottish astronomers have discovered

what they believe to be the most distant galaxy ever observed, using the new super space telescope james webb. it is a red smudge. it is 35 billion light years away. so we're seeing it as it was just 235 million years after the big bang. i think the quality is all right. better than my phone. the finding will need a follow—up study for confirmation. it is pretty amazing. we have had some great space stories. the weather with carol. good morning. good morning. this morning, we start with murky conditions. for most, mainly dry and

some sunshine around. we have showers scattered across the north of scotland and a few around the wash. through the day, the cloud will bubble up and we could see more showers and thicker cloud in the south—west. generally, we are looking at light winds. temperature is 14-22. looking at light winds. temperature is 14—22. 0vernight, the cloud continues to build. a mild night. heavier showers developing at times across north—west england. showers elsewhere with an overnight low of 10-15. elsewhere with an overnight low of 10—15. turning muggy in southern areas. tomorrow, we start with cloud. we look at showers across north of england again and some could prove to be heavy. we will see some getting into pembrokeshire later in the day and potentially in parts of cornwall and over to the

east but a fair bit of cloud as we go through the day. temperatures, 14-24, go through the day. temperatures, 14—24, so starting to rise. they will continue to rise. the highest temperatures in the south and the east. thank you. we will talk to you again in the next half hour. it was a year ago when a lorry ploughed into a queue of stationary traffic on the motorway near durham, killing three people. the driver had been looking at dating apps on his phone. now a bbc documentary has been made using footage from the day, and the police say they hope it will raise awareness about dangerous driving. this report from jonathan swingler contains images you may find distressing. i was heading up from darlington, up the motorway to work. hillary thompson normally answers 999 calls. today, she'll be making one.

i thought to myself, "wow, he's going fast for the distance he's got to stop for this stationary traffic." and then i thought he's not going to stop. and then he just literally went into the back of the queueing traffic. the lorry is travelling at almost 60 miles an hour. it crushes two vehicles, collides with another hgv and then swerves into two more cars, including the red one driven by molly smith. ijust remember all of a sudden feeling that impact, hearing the kind of crashing sounds of metal. my hands were shaking that much. i couldn't...| couldn't dial. i couldn't do anything. anyway, eventually

i managed to ring. recording: i'm on the motorway. i think you'll already have a million calls about an accident. are you 0k? i'm 0k. i've just seen it. it's a lorry. there's people, i'm sure. it's gone up in flames and everything. and the amount of fire that was going on around, ijust thought, no, i need to get away from this. you don't know if anything else is going to catch fire or explode or anything like that. so i started to move in the opposite direction. in the distance, i could see a huge plume of thick, black smoke. - what was noticeable first . was the smell from the fire and the heat coming from the fire. so if you imagine i've gone past, it's been on the other side - of the road, gone past at some speed, and it was like - opening the oven door — just that intense heat. l just to confirm, there's a paramedic here on scene, army, i believe, - and there is somebody deceased inside a vehicle. _ i arrived on scene to see - that there was a deceased male.

that's when you know it's serious. like a bomb's going off. just for the a log. we will have to disturb the wreckage. we're going to have to disturb the wreckage just to ensure that there's no one else in there. i'm being told that there is a second fatality at the scene. it's definitely been hit. do you need to go to hospital? because i'm pregnant, so it's best to go. how far are you? 26 weeks. david daglish and elaine sullivan from seaham were found in a car embedded in the wreckage of the burning truck. and paul mullen, from washington, died in his pick—up truck. the driver of the silver wagon on fire has been located fit and well. everything happened too fast. everybody pulled their brakes super—fast. well, it was a bit surreal — to look at the lorry- and to look at him unscathed.

it's like, is this the driver? how can it be? have you got your mobile phone with you, at the moment? could i take that from you, please? and this is the moment that would change his life for ever. we could see he'd been on his mobile phone pretty much all of the day. he was travelling at about 58mph, on his mobile phone, at the point that he ploughed in the back of the standstill traffic. i'll ask you there, are you responsible for causing the death of those three persons for the offence of death by dangerous driving? no comment. in court, 0nut had admitted causing death by dangerous driving. now, starting his eight—year, ten—month sentence, he's broken his silence. i want to apologise. i want to just say i'm really sorry, because i feel really _ bad for what happened. i feel bad for the people who lost loved ones. - people were injured and they have to suffer with back—flashes - and injuries for the rest

of their lives. _ it's hard. it's truly hard to accept that. plus, living for the rest- of your life with that in your head is not easy, either. i don't know what else to say. junior sullivan's parents were killed in the crash. as part of this process, he has to be interviewed. and during the interview, he said a few words about how he feels and how it's affected him. are you sure you are all right in watching it? yeah. there is a million things i can tell people, you know. - but i want to apologise. i want to just say i'm really sorry. all right? yeah. makes you realise he is sort ofjust a human. doesn't make a difference in terms of necessarily how i feel

about him or whatever else. but it doesn't take away from what he's done, no. but if people look at it and think, well, actually, i don't want to be that person, i don't want to be in prison, i don't want to have killed three people, that on my conscience. look at what it's doing to this guy, look at where he is, then, hopefully, they'll take something away from that. it happened to me and here i am. that's the reason i'm in prison. for what? ruin your life. ruin many other people's lives. to have people like me and other emergency services still thinking about it. and, you know, driving past here and thinking about that day and the victims. here's my cheeky girl. god, you could so easily

could not have been here. deadly browsing: the lorry driver is available on bbc iplayer. it is incredibly powerful to watch. going back to that day and talking to all those people in that picture. we will be joined later in the programme by a detective you saw in the report and an expert on the rules on using your phone and not using your phone when you are driving. ten years ago, all eyes were on london as the capital hosted the olympic games in an event that gave us super saturday, gold medals galore, and a show—stopping opening ceremony. ten yea rs ten years ago. what we have been through since then. we'll be looking at the legacy left by the 2012 games —

but let's take a look back at team gb�*s most memorable moments. commentator: here goes jess! everybody is on their feet. the pride of sheffield, the pride of great britain. jessica ennis is the olympic champion. it is a perfect day. shoulder to shoulder as they come off the bend. who's going to get it? chris hoy gets the gold medal! a big eight metres 21. fabulous stuff. this could be gold and silver for great britain. oh, my goodness! it is a golden triumph for andy murray. - gold medallist and olympic champion bradley wiggins. alistair brownlee is the olympic triathlon champion! _ great britain into the record books.

a little dance of delight from great britain's nicola adams as she soaks up the acclaim and the applause. ben ainslie wins hisi fourth olympic gold. he is the greatest sailing olympian in the history of the games. - great britain win the olympic title and another world record. farah is kicking hard. the crowd are lifting him. mo farah, for great britain. it's gold. what a night. what a night, what a couple of weeks, a month altogether. absolutely crazy. you had a ringside seat. i think we did 27 days consecutively on early is. by the end i had no voice but it was worth it. i got into the spirit like everybody else. there was a nail bar in the olympic

park where everyone got their nails done and had flags put on. everyone. do not look too closely. can we come off that now. i had a flag on my toes. it was the trend at the time. do you still have them? no. we'll be speaking to two of team gb�*s medal winning athletes — greg rutherford and lutalo muhammad — just after 7.30 this morning. i wonder if they were done. we look forward to reflecting on ten years ago. and send your memories of where you are watching the opening ceremony and what impact it had on your life. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm alice salfield. urgent change is needed to improve the performance of fire services in london, according to a watchdog.

london fire brigade's response to last week's widespread fires was praised — but the inspectorate's report said "beneath the surface deeper—seated problems remain". the mayor's office said sadiq khan was satisfied that the brigade and commissioner were committed to delivering the improvements needed. rail passengers are being urged not to travel this morning unless absolutely necessary, because of strike action by the rmt union. it's expected to stop the vast majority of services running. there are no trains at all through this core of london, the thameslink service from st pancras through to london bridge. and, really, we're only running on our main line, so that line down to brighton — the brighton main line — is running, but any of the branch lines are off. many of those we're not able to run on. so please, please, do check before you travel and please only travel if absolutely necessary. meanwhile, another tube strike has been announced. members of the rmt union will walk out in three weeks' time on friday august 19th in a long—running dispute

overjobs and pensions. today marks ten years since the london 2012 olympic opening ceremony. basketball player amber charles became the poster girl of the games, having been hand—picked at school. being a part of, like, the olympic ceremony, being there in the stadium when it all happened — i don't think i'll ever forget that. by having this injection of, like, excitement in the area but also sports in the area and having these actual physical buildings and landmarks that were left there after the games to be enjoyed and used by the borough was definitely amazing. so, as i mentioned earlier, very few services running on the trains this morning — so do check the details. and that's also impacting some tube lines which run on network rail tracks.

now the weather with lucy martin. hello, good morning. temperatures are on the way up over the next few days. temperatures will pick up through the next few days. one or two isolated showers around and through the day we will see cloud bubbling up, some bright or sunny spells and the chance of seeing one or two isolated showers. temperatures are maximum of 22 celsius with light winds. through this evening and overnight, not a great deal of change, there will be areas of cloud, some breaks in the cloud and the best of those as we move towards dawn. temperatures overnight and not falling too far, sitting at an overnight low of 12 to 15 celsius. into tomorrow, a fair amount of clout. there will be some breaks in the crowd at times, bright or sunny spells coming through and it is looking mostly dry. temperatures up a touch on today, a maximum of 24 celsius. for friday it looks like there will be some bright or sunny weather at times, cloud bubbling up,

temperatures are high of 26 celsius. i'll be back in half an hour. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. coming up on breakfast this morning... it could be coming home! england's lionesses are through to the final of the women's euros — we'll reflect on their sensational semifinal victory with some of the team's former coaches, and hearfrom pundit ian wright. as the bbc reopens its archives to celebrate its centenary, we revisit a family—run ice—cream parlour where business boomed after appearing on a local news item in the 1980s. and another trip down memory lane — ten years on from the london olympics, we'll speak to tasneem about the impact taking part in the opening ceremony has had on her life.

what an incredible night last night for england. did you and watch it? i didn't intend to _ did you and watch it? i didn't intend to but _ did you and watch it? i didn't intend to but i _ did you and watch it? i didn't intend to but i couldn't - did you and watch it? i didn't| intend to but i couldn't switch did you and watch it? i didn't - intend to but i couldn't switch off. and plenty of this morning's papers are reporting the win. "heaven and heel" is the headline on the back page of the mirror — a tongue—in—cheek reference to alessia russo's backheel goal through the legs of sweden's keeper. the same headline makes the back page of the express, which features a picture of russo celebrating that goal. look at that face! absolutely great! "heel we go" is the metro's headline as it looks ahead to sunday's final. and the telegraph sport describes the lionesses as the "pride of england". let's go tojohn, who's in leeds for us this morning.

they have avoided the pawn on heel but they have gone for sweet caroline —— swede caroline. incredible result. shall we keep on celebrating a bit longer and go straight tojohn in leeds? good morning. there is a very special reason you are there. we morning. there is a very special reason you are there.— morning. there is a very special reason you are there. we are going to be reflecting, _ reason you are there. we are going to be reflecting, as _ reason you are there. we are going to be reflecting, as england - reason you are there. we are going to be reflecting, as england have . to be reflecting, as england have progressed through this tournament, how they are impacting the wider women's game. we are in leeds, where rachel daly started her professional career. she came up through the ranks at leeds united and is now playing over in the states, the england left back who plays as a forward for her club in the states, but we will be reflecting on the impact that this brilliant run that england have had on the game. it is notjust good for women's football

but for english football, when you consider what has been achieved so far. they had did notjust win last night, they obliterated sweden. 4—0, beating the top ranked side in the tournament. serena weidman now at 19 matches unbeaten under her. that impressive claim of having won last time out and now with england once again underlined by those brilliant goals that we will show you in a moment —— sarina wiegman. it is a moment —— sarina wiegman. it is a moment to enjoy, notjust for those of us watching and fans up and down the country but for the players themselves. this was the moment inside the changing room, the whole squad got together for inside the changing room, the whole squad got togetherfor a inside the changing room, the whole squad got together for a team inside the changing room, the whole squad got togetherfor a team photo in sheffield last night and a special moment because let's not forget, members of that squad, as we know, have suffered so much heartbreak at the semifinal stage of major tournaments before, losing three times at that stage in previous tournaments. but not now. they are into the final for the

first time since 2009. is this the year, as we have been seeing this morning, that football finally comes home? they will help so on sunday. it is a great moment. the unifying moment for the nation when you consider what it means to get through to a final of a major tournament. let's remind ourselves how it happened last night. 4—0, incredible skyline and it didn't look as though it would go that way at times. england didn't get up to the best of starts against sweden, who dominated the opening 25 minutes. sweden started the stronger but wasted chances, before beth mead fired in her sixth goal of the tournament after half an hour. 1—0 at the break. england soon doubled their lead in the second half when lucy bronze's header went unchallenged, and the game was as good as over when super sub alissia russo's fabulous back heel made it 3—0. what a goal this was. this got everybody off the sofa! fran kirby added a fourth

before the final whistle brought delirious scenes. she was brilliant last night once again. england will play either france or germany in the final at wembley on sunday. this team is just super focused, to be honest with you. the desire has been there from the very beginning. we're focused on every single game. i don't think we've got ahead of ourselves, even though it can be quite overwhelming with the support that we've had, the crowd noise, the amazing performances that we've put in, the likes of beth mead probably going for the golden boot. just things like that all going our way. i think we've all kept ourselves very grounded as a team, and just the desire to win football matches hasjust been there from the beginning, and that has always been the focus. they are enjoying that run. just as fans are penned down i. andrew plante was watching with many in bristol last night. they certainly

enjoyed themselves. in the countdown to kick—off, no question just how popular england's euro run has become. seasoned supporters... ..and some first—time fans, too, strapping in for a nail—biting 90 minutes. i'm feeling really excited, and... i mean, we're going to win, aren't we? it's their first football match out of the womb so... yeah. yeah, seven days today. fingers crossed. i'm not saying anything! in an end—to—end first half, fans felt every foul... ..suffered with every shot. and then, finally, england ruled. the games i've watched, we always seem to get better as the game goes on. so, at the moment, confident, you know. we'll make some subs, we've got some

good players on the bench. so far so good. i found the first half so kind of stressful, to be honest. first ten, 15 minutes, ijust, yeah, couldn't breathe. yeah, i think when we got that goal, i feel like we just held the ball quite nicely, holding possession, ithink, yeah, let's get a goal early on. i think — yeah, i think we'll do it. good advice — england took it. a second goal minutes later... ..thena third. and then a fourth — the lionesses sending spectators wild. # ..coming home! # it's coming home! # it's coming! # football's coming home! # it's coming home! the final whistle and an england final. this was beyond what anyone had hoped for. incredible. so, so good. # football's coming home! how are you feeling right now? i can't wait. i'm going to wembley to watch the final, so i'm absolutely buzzing. # it's coming! what a game — all of it!

i'll be there on sunday, so... hopefully. ecstatic. like, how have we scored three goals in the second half? yeah, it was a bit of a nervous start, and then we just pulled it back, like, straight away, which was great. how are you feeling now? can't believe it. so emotional. yeah, it's always emotional! it's coming home! it's coming...! it's coming home! let's go, girls! time to do it all again this weekend. # man, i feel like a woman! andrew plant, bbc news, in bristol. i guess the big question is, what will be the lasting legacy of all of this? i'm sure there will be a boost in participation but perhaps interest in the game as well when you consider that there was an increase in the number of tickets sold for wsl matches after the last world cup. interesting to note that

arsenal have said that he will play all of their champions league fixtures and at least three women's super league matches at the emirates stadium this season. they still need to come through a qualifying round to reach the champions league, but are expecting a favourable draw. their wsl games against tottenham, manchester united and chelsea will also move to the emirates. as ticket sales grow they can put more people in the seats. the commonwealth games get under way in birmingham tomorrow with the opening ceremony, and diverjack laugher and weightlifter emily campbell will be england's flag—bearers. campbell won bronze at the last games in 2018, before becoming the first woman to win an olympic weightlifting medalfor team gb, with silver in 2020. diver laugher has five commonwealth gold medals and one silver, along with an olympic gold from rio in 2016.

a big moment for them. it's so hard to make these games, and to represent your country it's always an honour. but then to obviously carry the flag and lead the team out is, you know — i don't think the words can describe it, it's so special. and obviously to do it with jack, as well — he's, you know, an absolute legend and pioneer of his sport. so for us to do that together, it's going to be a really special moment. it really is a packed summer of sport, isn't it? the commonwealth games to come. there is no doubt, this run from england is one of the moments of the summer and it certainly lit up the summer for many, with so much interest in the game and so much brilliant football. we think about the goals, this run, which has ended with that place in the final at wembley on sunday in front of a sell—out. what a moment it will be, and you just wonder, don't you, what the outcome will be on sunday. who will they face? germany or france? where pointing out it was germany that they played the last time they reach the final

backin the last time they reach the final back in 2009. and you wonder, if it is germany, could they get the better of them this time? we will wait and see. better of them this time? we will wait and see-— better of them this time? we will wait and see. ., ., ,, ,, , ., wait and see. your assessment is, of course... wait and see. your assessment is, of course- -- ? — wait and see. your assessment is, of course--- ? of— wait and see. your assessment is, of course... ? of course. _ wait and see. your assessment is, of course... ? of course. no _ wait and see. your assessment is, of course... ? of course. no doubt. - course... ? of course. no doubt. thank you _ course... ? of course. no doubt. thank you very — course... ? of course. no doubt. thank you very much _ course... ? of course. no doubt. thank you very much indeed, - course... ? of course. no doubt. l thank you very much indeed, john. we've all heard of a printer. you probably have won at home. i do. it doesn't work. always out of cartridges, doesn't work. but what about something that does just the opposite? well, a machine has been invented that can literally wipe the words off a page. 0k... 0k. .. it's 0k... it's true. i know about 0k. .. it's true. i know about this. the deprinter evaporates the ink, allowing the piece of paper to be re—used. our energy and environment analyst roger harrabin went to check it out. countless millions of trees are felled worldwide to satisfy our demand for paper and cardboard.

the process uses lots of heat — much of it created by polluting coal or gas. pthis firm in sweden is heading for zero carbon emissions, this firm in sweden is heading for zero carbon emissions, but pulp and paper worldwide is the fourth—biggest carbon—emitting industry. amazingly, demand for paper is still going up. after 50 years of talking about the paperless office, we haven't got there. so we could change that by changing the amount of paper and packaging that we're all using. i'm now going to introduce you to an invention that is so bold, so brilliant, and so extraordinary that you will think it is a trick. it isn't a trick. this is real. it's to do with solving the problem of what we can do with all the waste paper in the world — all the paper we print up and then just throw away. well, in here, there's a machine that's going to wipe the words off the page. this is barak yekutiely,

who's behind the project. barak, we've got some printed paper here. can you wipe those words off the page, please? absolutely, roger. it's done with a powerful laser and a special paper coating that stops ink soaking into the page. each sheet can be reused up to ten times. and look at the transformation. ha! that is absolutely amazing. barak, what have you done with the words? well, we basically evaporated the ink. and what's left is just pigments of the ink, which we collect. and those can be recycled back into new printer inks. so you've vaporised the script. completely. so how's this going to become an everyday part of office life? we're converting existing printers with our solution. so we have a printer, and then you have a deprinter that could sit next to every printer and work with every printer in the world. that invention may work with paper — but what about the cardboard that floods through our doors as retail shifts online? do we really need it?

this is one household's box mountain afterjust a couple of months. we're simply consuming too much stuff. it's a terrible habit. we've got to kick it! roger harrabin, bbc news. roger, calm down, mate! iwould uuite like roger, calm down, mate! iwould quite like to _ roger, calm down, mate! iwould quite like to do _ roger, calm down, mate! iwould quite like to do that. _ roger, calm down, mate! iwould quite like to do that. would - roger, calm down, mate! iwould quite like to do that. would you? | quite like to do that. would you? definitel . quite like to do that. would you? definitely. some _ quite like to do that. would you? definitely. some stress - quite like to do that. would you? definitely. some stress and - quite like to do that. would you? | definitely. some stress and over. that is incredible. _ definitely. some stress and over. that is incredible. what _ definitely. some stress and over. that is incredible. what a - definitely. some stress and over. that is incredible. what a great . that is incredible. what a great idea, as that is incredible. what a great idea. as long — that is incredible. what a great idea, as long as _ that is incredible. what a great idea, as long as it _ that is incredible. what a great idea, as long as it continues i that is incredible. what a great idea, as long as it continues to| idea, as long as it continues to work. i! idea, as long as it continues to work. ., , .., idea, as long as it continues to work. ., , ., ., work. if only we can evaporate some ofthe work. if only we can evaporate some of the weather! _ work. if only we can evaporate some of the weather! not _ work. if only we can evaporate some of the weather! not carol, _ work. if only we can evaporate some of the weather! not carol, not - of the weather! not carol, not carol! good morning.- of the weather! not carol, not carol! good morning. good morning. a wonderful thing — carol! good morning. good morning. a wonderful thing to _ carol! good morning. good morning. a wonderful thing to say. _ i wish we someone would invent a beam me up, scotty. we are starting off with murky conditions as we saw

in leeds. some starting off with some sunshine and some seeing a few showers but for most it will be a mainly dry day. that is because we have high pressure building in from the atlantic across our shores and not much in the ways of isobars, so light winds and gentle breezes. we start off with sunshine for many, don't forget we have murky conditions which should left foot through the day we will start to see more cloud developed. as showers across scotland, early afternoon, we could see a few in the south—eastern quarter but probably not the far south—east itself, the clouds thickening up in the south—west where temperatures will reach about 19 degrees. generally 14 to 22. as we head through the evening and overnight we continue with the build—up of cloud. a few showers, some will turn heavy across northern england. some clear skies but more cloud and clear skies so as a result it would be as chilly as last night

but it will feel quite muggy in parts of the south with overnight lows at between 13 and 15 degrees. through the end of the week it will warm up everywhere and the highest temperatures will be in the south and east. not bone dry, there will be areas of cloud and there will also be some sunshine at times. on thursday you can see how the high pressure drifts further east, the n moving in a clockwise direction scoops up some of that one a continental air and moves it across our shores, which is why it will turn one. they state looking cloudy, making for some. once again some showers across northern england, some heavy at times. brighter skies across northern scotland, south—west england and later we should see it brighten up across pembrokeshire as well as northern ireland. on thursday temperatures that bit higher, getting up to about 24 degrees in london, 20 in glasgow, and around 19 in belfast. as we move into friday, still a lot of dry

weather around, still a few showers across northern england, moving it across northern england, moving it across southern scotland. we could catch a few in wales, as well. you can see where we have the sunshine, where we have the cloud and the clouds thickening to the west late in the day, heralding the arrival of that band of rain you can see, which will be heavy as it moves in. temperatures 15 to 25 or 26 degrees. then for the weekend, at the high pressure moves away, low pressure pressure moves away, low pressure comes pressure moves away, low pressure comes in with its fronts, bringing in some rain. the heaviest rain will be across the north and west, and for the south and east it will be negligible. the temperatures getting up negligible. the temperatures getting up to about 26 degrees. ! thank you. we will see you later. people in england are being urged to use water wisely, after experiencing the driest weather since 1976 in the first six months of this year. and as carol has just been saying, not much more rain on the way.

the national drought group met earlier this week to discuss how to cope with conditions. if a drought is declared it could mean restrictions on nonessential water use, like hosepipe bans. frances read reports. on the farms which grow our food, early harvests mean lost revenue. yields are down 20% in some areas. and for those with animals, there's problems, too. there's not enough for us to feed the cows out in the field, which is very unusual injuly, when they would usually just be eating grass. and when we have to supplement feeds that aren't there, it gets very expensive. despite what it looks like, we're not in a drought yet — but without rainfall, warnings that we could be heading despite what it looks like, we're not in a drought yet — but without rainfall, warnings that we could be heading for one of the worst

the country has seen. if we look on the map, this is the last three months. green is normal rainfall, yellow is low, and the areas in orange have been notably low. water companies have put early drought plans into action by asking us all to save water, and reducing that waste is key when there's more dry weather forecasted for august. frances read, bbc news. let's speak now to regan harris from anglian water. good morning. thank you for talking to us. how concerned should we be that we might be dealing with droughts and water shortages in the coming months? what droughts and water shortages in the coming months?— droughts and water shortages in the coming months? what we have seen so far this ear coming months? what we have seen so far this year is — coming months? what we have seen so far this year is the _ coming months? what we have seen so far this year is the driest _ coming months? what we have seen so far this year is the driest eight - far this year is the driest eight months since 1976, which is when some people remember the last long heatwave that we had, and certainly in the east of england we have only had 4% of the rainfall we would normally see in july. had 4% of the rainfall we would normally see injuly. that being said, from an anglian water perspective, reservoirs are in reasonable shape, about 80% full and our ground water sources are in reasonable shape, as well, so while we should be mindful of the water we are using now, we are not planning

currently to have any restrictions this year on our supplies. so why are we getting — this year on our supplies. so why are we getting these _ this year on our supplies. so why are we getting these drought - are we getting these drought warnings at this particular time? mainly it is due to last winter being dry. wintertime is our refill period water companies, it is when we expect rainfall, when our river flows become higher, reservoirs are topped up and our ground water sources are replenished. last winter was particularly dry and that then can cause us problems later in the yearfor spring and can cause us problems later in the year for spring and summer. can cause us problems later in the yearfor spring and summer. for anglian water we usually say one dry winter doesn't give us much cause for concern, although we are clearly being mindful of what is going on at looking at things very carefully, but a second dry winter this winter could bring us more problems for next spring and summer. at}! could bring us more problems for next spring and summer. of course this is all coming _ next spring and summer. of course this is all coming after— next spring and summer. of course this is all coming after the - next spring and summer. of course this is all coming after the hottest. this is all coming after the hottest day on record. have you been noticing a trend over the last few years? noticing a trend over the last few ears? ~ , ,., , noticing a trend over the last few ears? �* , ,., , ~ noticing a trend over the last few years? absolutely. we saw usage go u . years? absolutely. we saw usage go u- cuite years? absolutely. we saw usage go up quite dramatically _ years? absolutely. we saw usage go up quite dramatically during - years? absolutely. we saw usage go up quite dramatically during covid, l up quite dramatically during covid, when people were at home, but

certainly what we have seen during the last couple of weeks with the heatwave was that we were supplying about 35% more water, so to give people an idea of how much that is, typically we supply 1.1 billion litres of water per day across the east and we were seeing that go up to about 1.5 east and we were seeing that go up to about1.5 or1.6 east and we were seeing that go up to about 1.5 or 1.6 billion litres, a phenomenal increase, and demand for water was never higher than during the recent hot weather. [30 during the recent hot weather. do the water companies have to take some responsibility at this point in terms of repairing and preventing leaks? there is a report that water companies in england are leaking a quarter of their supply a date. i can only speak from an anglian water perspective, we hate leaks as much as our customers do and we have got the best record of the industry, half as many leaks as any other water company. we know we need to do more. there is always more we can do but we havejust more. there is always more we can do but we have just recorded our best ever year for reducing leaks. absolutely at the forefront of our

minds. we know it is notjust about leakage, it is about people using less water and having resilient infrastructure for the future, as well. ., ., , ., ~ , ., , well. regan harris, thank you very much indeed- _ full reaction to that wonderful night of football for the lionesses coming up at 7am. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm alice salfield. rail passengers are being urged not to travel this morning unless absolutely neccessary — because of strike action by the rmt union. it's expected to stop the vast majority of services running. there are no trains at all through this core of london, the thameslink service from st pancras through to london bridge. and, really, we're only running on our main line, so that line down to brighton — the brighton main line — is running, but any of the branch lines are off. many of those we're not able to run on. so please, please, do check before you travel and please only travel

if absolutely necessary. meanwhile, another tube strike has been announced. members of the rmt union will walk out there in three weeks' time, on friday, august 19th, in a long—running dispute overjobs and pensions. urgent change is needed to improve the performance of fire services in london, according to a watchdog. london fire brigade's response to last week's widespread fires was praised — but the inspectorate's report said "beneath the surface deeper—seated problems remain". the mayor's office said sadiq khan was satisfied that the brigade and commissioner were committed to delivering the improvements needed. today marks ten years since the london 2012 olympic opening ceremony. basketball player amber charles became the poster girl of the games, having been handpicked at school.

being there in the same year when it all happened, i don't think i'll ever forget that. sk by having this injection of likely excitement in the area of new, physical buildings and landmarks that were left there after the games to be enjoyed and used by the borough was definitely amazing. as mentioned — very few train services running this morning. and that's also impacting some tube lines which run on network rail tracks. the bakerloo, district and overground lines are all part suspended. the elizabeth line has a part closure and reduced service. and there are minor delays for the circle line now too. that takes us to the weather then with lucy martin. hello, good morning. temperatures are set to pick up. as we move through the day we will see cloud bubbling up. and the chance of isolated showers. temperatures at a maximum of 22 and light winds.

overnight, not a great deal of change. areas of cloud. some breaks in the cloud at times. the best as we move towards dawn. sitting at an overnight low of 12—15 c. tomorrow brings a fairamount overnight low of 12—15 c. tomorrow brings a fair amount of cloud. some breaks in the cloud at times. it is looking mostly dry. the temperatures up looking mostly dry. the temperatures up to touch on today. a maximum of 24 celsius. friday, some bright or sunny weather at times. cloud bubbling up and temperatures up a touch, i high of 26 celsius. i'll be back in half an hour. remember you can get all the latest on our social media and our website. bye for now. good morning, welcome to breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. our headlines. commentator: fran kirby

goes for the chip. - england's lionesses roar into the final of the euros to the delight of fans. i thought, "oh my, this is going to be hard." and then, bam, 4—0. it was a great game, though — great game. a thrilling night in sheffield as england got us off our seats in reaching the final. expect more celebrations if they can win the trophy on sunday. as the england side continue to inspire the next generation. another day of massive rail disruption after 40,000 workers went on strike at midnight. i will speak to the head of the rail union asking why things

are not moving forward and what it means for you today. good morning, a dry start for many. also some sunshine around but cloud continues to build through the course of the day. and the next few days it will turn warmer for us all. it's wednesday, 27thjuly. england are through to the final of the women's european championship at wembley on sunday after thrashing sweden in last night's semi—final. the lionesses beat the tournament's top—ranked side 4—0 to set up a clash with either germany or france, who play tonight. our correspondent natalie pirks was at bramall lane. the relief was palpable, the joy was intense. and the dancing? fit for a wembley final. sweden are ranked second in the world and, from the off,

were intent on showing us why. commentator: earps forced into a very early save. - england yet again started with the same xi sarina wiegman had put her faith in throughout. within four minutes, top scorer beth mead almost repaid that trust. it's a good one. 0h, off the bar. heart—in—mouth moments. england's goalkeeper busier than in all previous matches. england needed to take a breath, and with calm heads came the breakthrough. mead! she's done it again. england lead in the semifinal. the ecstatic gasps of 30,000 england fans inhaling the ball into the net for mead's sixth of the tournament. half—time brought a welcome respite and a chance to remind each other to leave no regrets on the bramall lane pitch. lucy bronze got the memo. lucy bronze strikes gold for england!

the dreaded var check meant an anxious wait. finally, confirmation came of how close it was. var once again sweden's nemesis. ellen white had played her part. the dynamic crowd favourite alessia russo came on, hoping to make another impact. she would get her chance, but not before england once again had to be alert. oh, what a save, earps. it wasn't a clean shot, but the save needed to be perfection. mary earps, take a bow. from one goalkeeper�*s pleasure to an absolute howler. russo an absolute menace in sweden's box. but this backheel was audacious. oh, my. lindahl will never want to see that again. but if she thought it was over, she was wrong. england's march to the wembley arch was becoming a canter and fran kirby's mastery in midfield reaped the rewards she so deserved. delirium inside bramall lane!

and when the final whistle blew and that semifinal hoodoo had been banished, the emotions could finally flow for players and for fans. i think on the full—time whistle, we didn't really know what to do. as you can tell, unbelievable atmosphere. we're ecstatic to be in the final. oh, it was brilliant. absolutely brilliant. i'm buzzing for the final. ithought, "oh, my, this is going to be hard." - and then, bam, 4—0. it was a great game, though. great game. crazy. 4-0. who would have thought it? semifinal, onto the final now. so, yeah, great stuff. i think sarina wiegman's done a fantasticjob. yeah. she's brought the youth back in. she's got experience there. these fans, these players, in sarina they trust. it's been less than a year she's been in thejob, but the impact she's made is clear. 13 years it had been since england had been in the final of a major tournament.

who would bet against them now? natalie pirks, bbc news, sheffield. such a great night and we have it all to look forward to on sunday. your prediction? it is too early now. it is coming home. it is coming home. i will remind you of that next week. let's get more from john, who is in leeds. what a great night. we are talking about it, the thought of football coming home and reason to be confident when you consider sweden were the top ranked side in the tournament and england obliterated them 4—0 with brilliant goals. we are in leeds because we will reflect on the wider impact this run from the england side is having on football, notjust the women's game.

we was beak to some of those, rachael daly, england left back who started her career here in leeds before playing for leeds before moving to the states where she plays club football. and we know that england in a major tournament, any home nation in a major tournament, it has a unifying feeling as he edged closer to a final which england are now in. plenty of reaction coming through last night. these are some of the tweets on social media. the prime minister borisjohnson we will get to. the duke and duchess of cambridge said congratulations... borisjohnson said...

gary lineker said it was a fabulous performance... and the former england player casey stoney who just said yes! and... it got us off our seats last night. some lovely pictures of this young girl watching inside the stadium at bramall lane last night. we were all her last night, dancing away in reaction to the goals as england knocked out sweden. she was lucky to enjoy the hottest ticket in town and we know where the next hottest ticket is and that is the final on sunday. there is a feel—good factor around the england team and we will reflect on that as they continue to change attitudes around the game. such a big and special moment and that is what we

love about sport. you wonder how it will play out on sunday. studio: we are all fascinated this morning by that little girl dancing. she was the start of the show. the girl at the front with a flag in her hand. she was having the time of her life. who is she, i wonder? the little girl in the stand, waving with the flag. we are trying to show a picture of her and it is not working but you know who we mean. if you know her, get in touch. we would love to talk to you on the programme later. that moment ofjoy, let's keep it going. maybe not. nojoy now. there's severe travel disruption again today, as 40,000 rail workers take further strike action only 20% of rail services are set to run today —

but even these services will be limited and shortened. there will also be huge swathes of britain that will have no rail access at all. that is the grey lines. nina, is at london euston for us. nina, what impact is the strike having? euston station is one of the busiest in the country. 70 million journeys a year. one of the busiest boxes around the picket line because inside we have seen around 15 passengers, no more than that through the morning. this walk—out by 40,000 workers remains a three—way split with workers saying they want the government to get involved and the government saying it is not theirjob to negotiate a deal and network rail say they offered a deal but they did not want it. what does it mean if you are

travelling today? 20% of planned services will run today and that will vary depending on where you live so worth checking where they are running and where they are running they will start later. running until 6:30pm. some examples of what would be busy routes. the last train from london to edinburgh leaving at tbm and from london to manchester leaving atjust after manchester leaving at just after 3:30pm. manchester leaving atjust after 3:30pm. look out if you plan to travel on those routes. some parts of the country that would be busy at this time of year, no services at all such as hotspots like blackpool, great yarmouth, you will not be able to get in and out of the train. mick lynch is the general secretary of the union at the head of the strike. this is causing misery for passengers and businesses. we have

situation. they will only offer redundancies if they will accept changes to the terms and conditions which at this time are not acceptable. operators have offered nothing, all they have offered is redundancy which is not acceptable. they point to closure of ticket offices and say one ticket is bought in a ticket office every hour. you need to modernise and understand working on sundays, outside 9—5 is the way other places operate and you need to modernise with them. we will and we are negotiating _ need to modernise with them. we will and we are negotiating on _ need to modernise with them. we will and we are negotiating on the - and we are negotiating on the agenda. go to the ticket office at euston you will see queueing out the door. . , euston you will see queueing out the doon ., , , euston you will see queueing out the door. ., , , ., , ., door. that is used in. that is not an average _ door. that is used in. that is not an average across _ door. that is used in. that is not an average across the _ door. that is used in. that is not an average across the country. l door. that is used in. that is not. an average across the country. they want to shut — an average across the country. they want to shut the _ an average across the country. they want to shut the euston _ an average across the country. iia: want to shut the euston ticket office, every ticket office in britain. they dispute that. they do not dispute it when they put it to me across the table. they intend to close every ticket office as soon as they can and they intend to start

congestion and carbon emissions sorted out. railways are central to that. the government want a conditions economy which has happened for millions in this country where they have had conditions stripped out with no job security and no guarantee they will have any lifestyle. many are sick of that and the public tell us they support our campaign, as do the travelling public.— support our campaign, as do the travelling public. they are behind us. how travelling public. they are behind us- how long _ travelling public. they are behind us. how long will— travelling public. they are behind us. how long will this _ travelling public. they are behind us. how long will this go - travelling public. they are behind us. how long will this go on? - travelling public. they are behind | us. how long will this go on? until we aet a us. how long will this go on? until we get a settlement _ us. how long will this go on? until we get a settlement and _ us. how long will this go on? until we get a settlement and it - us. how long will this go on? until we get a settlement and it is - us. how long will this go on? until we get a settlement and it is up i us. how long will this go on? until we get a settlement and it is up to the government to enable the settlement. if we can get that, network rail and the operators make a decent offer... 50 network rail and the operators make a decent offer. . .— a decent offer... so the offer on the table _ a decent offer... so the offer on the table you — a decent offer... so the offer on the table you are _ a decent offer... so the offer on the table you are not _ a decent offer... so the offer on the table you are not bidding i a decent offer... so the offer on the table you are not bidding to | the table you are not bidding to members?— the table you are not bidding to members? , ., . members? they have re'ected it in the mass meetings i members? they have re'ected it in the mass meetings we i members? they have rejected it in the mass meetings we have - members? they have rejected it in the mass meetings we have had. l members? they have rejected it in the mass meetings we have had. i | the mass meetings we have had. i want to bring in the shadow transport minister. on behalf of the labour party you are here and on

behalf of your constituents, why? because this is one of the biggest industrial disputes in over 100 years. for rail workers who have got to this point, 40,000 people walking out, giving up a day's paid. they are not massively well—paid with the average salary in the ticket office is in the £20,000 and above mark and for safety critical workers £25,000, £30,000. why are they doing it? because the cuts in place in network rail will be endangering people's lives. they know that people committed to customer service, getting rid of ticket offices and staff, massive implication for disabled people and those visually impaired. it is not the way to run the railways. rail workers were not put on furlough, they were considered key workers in the pandemic so the government had to

put money in to ensure the networks continue to run. it is now unfair to say to those workers we are going to cut terms and conditions and not give the pay you deserve. d0 cut terms and conditions and not give the pay you deserve. do you wor if give the pay you deserve. do you worry if strikes _ give the pay you deserve. do you worry if strikes continue, - give the pay you deserve. do you worry if strikes continue, we i give the pay you deserve. do you worry if strikes continue, we will| worry if strikes continue, we will see it with teachers, nurses and doctors. is that why the official line from the labour party is not to back strikes? the line from the labour party is not to back strikes?— back strikes? the line from the labour back strikes? the line from the labour party — back strikes? the line from the labour party as _ back strikes? the line from the labour party as the _ back strikes? the line from the | labour party as the government should be round the table. it is not to stand on — should be round the table. it is not to stand on picket _ should be round the table. it is not to stand on picket lines. _ should be round the table. it is not to stand on picket lines. it - should be round the table. it is not to stand on picket lines. it is i should be round the table. it is not to stand on picket lines. it is to i to stand on picket lines. it is to be around _ to stand on picket lines. it is to be around the _ to stand on picket lines. it is to be around the table. _ to stand on picket lines. it is to be around the table. if - to stand on picket lines. it is to be around the table. if we i to stand on picket lines. it is to be around the table. if we had | to stand on picket lines. it is to| be around the table. if we had a labour government these disputes would not be happening because we would not be happening because we would be sitting there having discussions. where is grant shapps? probably in the caribbean. he is not here today negotiating. where is keir starmer? iie here today negotiating. where is keir starmer?— here today negotiating. where is keir starmer? he is working every da to net keir starmer? he is working every day to get into _ keir starmer? he is working every day to get into number _ keir starmer? he is working every day to get into number 10. - keir starmer? he is working every day to get into number 10. he i keir starmer? he is working every day to get into number 10. he is l keir starmer? he is working every l day to get into number10. he is not day to get into number 10. he is not here backing the strikes and you are. ,, ., �*, here backing the strikes and you are. ,, ., �* , ., , here backing the strikes and you are. ,, ., �*, .,, , ., ., here backing the strikes and you are. ,,., �*, , ., .,, are. keir starmer's “ob is not to be here, i are. keir starmer's “ob is not to be here. i am _ are. keir starmer's “ob is not to be here, i am here i are. keir starmer's “ob is not to be here, i am here as— are. keir starmer's job is not to be here, i am here as shadow - are. keir starmer's job is not to be i here, i am here as shadow transport minister backing workers on strike

leadership contenders have set out more policies ahead of the ballot. with former chancellor rishi sunak promising to scrap vat on fuel bills. his rival liz truss' campaign team have called mr sunak�*s pledges a "screeching u—turn". let's speak now to our political correspondent iain watson. first it was general taxation, income tax, corporation tax, and now vat they are fighting over. it is income tax, corporation tax, and now vat they are fighting over.— vat they are fighting over. it is a ferocious campaign _ vat they are fighting over. it is a ferocious campaign because i vat they are fighting over. it is a | ferocious campaign because rishi sunak is saying if he becomes prime minister and if energy bills go above £3000, from the 1st of october, he will scrap vat on energy bills for a year. he said it is temporary and targeted. watch the liz truss campaign is saying is that they are doing ourjob for us, providing us with quotes from rishi sunak denouncing the policy. back in february he said this would be something that would help wealthy

households and he said let's be honest, it will not be temporary but it could be a permanent subsidy as we try to sort out public finances. they are swiftly trying to rebut what he is saying which goes to the centre of the contest. i think from rishi sunak�*s point of view, he has been attacking attempts by liz truss to cut taxes and reverses national insurance rise. by cutting taxes himself he loses his unique selling point but not doing it he might have look —— looked weak. it is a lose— lose situation from rishi sunak�*s point of view. also interesting, the fact they are not willing necessarily to compromise. it seems difficult to see how at the end of the contest they will be able to serve in each other�*s cabinet. the contest they will be able to serve in each other's cabinet. thank

ou. here's carol. good morning, if you are stepping out it is mild across the far south of england but in rural areas it is a cold start in strathallan with temperatures falling to six. we have isolated showers in the north of scotland in between variable cloud and sunshine and that continues into northern england. some murky conditions there this morning. in northern ireland, more cloud to start. coming south in england and wales, sunshine with variable amounts of cloud with showers already in lincolnshire and cambridgeshire. through the day, more cloud. more showers develop. particularly in the south—east quarter. perhaps not the far south—east itself. the cloud

thickening up in the south—west through the day. overnight, more cloud. still some showers. showers developing across northern england where at times they could be heavy. temperatures falling away to between 11-15. temperatures falling away to between 11—15. feeling humid in southern areas tonight. tomorrow, a lot of cloud around and showers in northern england, some of which will be heavy. brighterskies england, some of which will be heavy. brighter skies in northern scotland, south—west england, and later in pembrokeshire. and it will get warmer everywhere but especially in the south and east. still very dry. talking about the potential of a drought later in the summer. abuse and neglect of disabled people living in ukraine has been uncovered by a bbc investigation, which found more than 100,000 children and young people living in facilities that can't meet their needs.

human rights investigators say ukraine shouldn't be allowed tojoin the eu until it abolishes this system. a warning — this report from our correspondent danjohnson contains distressing images. this is the start of a life likely to be shaped by confinement, in a system that steals hope and squanders potential. these are the youngest children who've just been given up by their parents into the care of ukraine's network of institutions. and, as they grow older, things barely change. the same cot, the same limited life. oleg's face is pale from years in this bed. he doesn't get to sit up, even to eat. how are you, oleg? she trannslates, he answers. very good. there's a spark of recognition. he remembers elena's last visit. you've met oleg before? yes.

i've been here about seven years ago. and oleg was here. they converse. oh! hi. it's good to meet you. he said, "oh, wow, you're a journalist!" it's my pleasure to meet you. he's excited. oleg is 43, and has cerebral palsy. and how long have you lived here, oleg? she translates, he responds. very long. yeah. he had to stay in bed in this position for a long time — years, years to be like that. i'm just concerned about the potential that he hasn't lived up to because he was staying here for his whole life. he's been denied the chance to live independently by attitudes from a soviet past...

..other countries have put behind them. there has to be a change in mindset. institutional care has to be viewed as something that cannot exist. otherwise, these babies that we've seen — that will be what their future will look like. and i don't want this future for any child. tough to watch and an important story. let's speak now to our correspondent danjohnson. it must have been tough for you to be there and see that. ilibihat it must have been tough for you to be there and see that.— it must have been tough for you to be there and see that. what we saw was really upsetting _ be there and see that. what we saw was really upsetting on _ be there and see that. what we saw was really upsetting on what - be there and see that. what we saw was really upsetting on what you i was really upsetting on what you have seen there is by no means the worst of it. there are distress inks —— distressing scenes. we saw some self—harming. it is not that the staff do not care, they seem to be

part of a system that has given up on people and does not have any ambition they could have a better life, so it is depressing and it will probably shock some people because these are attitudes that date from the soviet era, something ukraine could have dealt with at any time in the past 30 years since it got independence but for whatever reason these children have not had the attention and not been the priority but may that will change because of the attention on ukraine and the fact it is a candidate country to join the european union, there will be pressure to address theseissues there will be pressure to address these issues and improve those young people's lives. if you listen to this clip, this is the vice chair of the united nations committee on the rights of people with disabilities. i think what we've seen of this movie, it is really worrying as regards children's disability and the institutionalisation of children with disabilities must be addressed by the government, and by the government

of ukraine, and without... at the present time, not waiting, not to wait until the end of the war. that is the politics and decision making side of it. i'm sure people have watched and see your report and think what can happen in the meantime, how can these kids be helped? it meantime, how can these kids be heled? , ' . ., ~ ., ., helped? it is difficult to know what to do because _ helped? it is difficult to know what to do because organisations - helped? it is difficult to know what to do because organisations who i to do because organisations who highlight this say although instinct is to help or send money to help to improve immediate circumstances of these young people, they would discourage that because they said they do not want to do anything that keeps this system going, they want to close those institutions and to see those people instead supported to live with their family or live independently. if you take somebody like the man we featured, he has cerebral palsy and he can engage with you but it is his physical

condition which if he were here or other countries, he would be managed differently, and he would not be tied to a bed, he would be supported to live a full life and that is what organisations and campaigners what to see adopted in ukraine. obviously a tough time for that country with many challenges, but they think because the spotlight is on ukraine and it has attention and funding and has the opportunity through eu membership this could be the chance to improve those young people's lives and even the lives of babies entering the system now. lian entering the system now. dan johnson, entering the system now. dan johnson. a — entering the system now. dan johnson, a powerful— entering the system now. dan johnson, a powerful work by him and his team. locked away: ukraine's stolen lives is available to watch on bbc iplayer. i recommend you take time to watch it. time now to get the news where you are.

good morning from bbc london, i'm alice salfield. rail passengers are being urged not to travel this morning unless absolutely neccessary — because of strike action by the rmt union. it's expected to stop the vast majority of services running. there are no trains at all through this core of london, the thameslink service from st pancras through to london bridge. and, really, we're only running on our main line, so that line down to brighton — the brighton main line — is running, but any of the branch lines are off. many of those we're not able to run on. so please, please, do check before you travel and please only travel if absolutely necessary. meanwhile another tube strike has been announced. members of the rmt union will walk out there in three weeks' time — on friday august 19th — in a long—running dispute overjobs and pensions. urgent change is needed to improve the performance of fire services in london, according to a watchdog. london fire brigade's response to last week's

widespread fires was praised — but the inspectorate's report said "beneath the surface deeper—seated problems remain". the commissioner's admitted the brigade has "a lot more to do" while the mayor sadiq khan says he's satisfied that it's committed to delivering improvements. today marks ten years since the london 2012 olympic opening ceremony. basketball player amber charles became the poster girl of the games, having been handpicked at school. being there in the stadium when it all happened, i don't think i'll ever forget that. by having this injection of, like, excitement in the area of newham, but also sports in the area of newham, and having these actual physical buildings and landmarks that were left there after the games to be enjoyed and used by the borough was definitely amazing. as mentioned, very few train services running this morning. and that's also impacting some tube lines which run on network rail tracks.

that takes us to the weather, then, with lucy martin. hello, good morning. temperatures are set to pick up a touch as we move through the next few days. this morning, some patchy cloud, one or two isolated showers around first thing. and then as we move through the day today, we're going to see cloud bubbling up, some bright or sunny spells, and the chance of seeing one or two isolated showers. temperatures at a maximum of 22 degrees celsius with light winds. through this evening and overnight, not a great deal of change, really. there'll be areas of cloud, some breaks in the cloud at times — i think the best of those as we move towards dawn. temperatures overnight not falling too far — sitting at an overnight low of 12 to 15 celsius. into tomorrow, then, and tomorrow brings a fair amount of cloud. there will be some breaks in the cloud at times, some bright or sunny spells coming through, and it is looking mostly dry. the temperatures up a touch on today — a maximum of 24 degrees celsius. for friday, it looks

like there will be some bright or sunny weather at times. cloud bubbling up, too. temperatures up a touch further — a high of 26 degrees celsius. i'll be back in an hour. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. as we've been hearing this morning, 40,000 rail workers have walked out today, over an ongoing row about pay, jobs and working conditions. we're joined now by the transport secretary grant shapps. we will talk about the strikes in a moment but i'm curious to know, did you watch the football last night, and your reaction to that england win. i and your reaction to that england win. . , and your reaction to that england win. ., , ., and your reaction to that england win. .,, ., ., . ., win. i was half watching it and then watchin: it win. i was half watching it and then watching it more _ win. i was half watching it and then watching it more and _ win. i was half watching it and then watching it more and more - win. i was half watching it and then watching it more and more intentlyi watching it more and more intently as the goals kept going in,

then money themselves. liz this by not being able to work and then money themselves. liz truss and rishi sunak talked _ then money themselves. liz truss and rishi sunak talked about _ then money themselves. liz truss and rishi sunak talked about the _ rishi sunak talked about the changing laws around the strikes, what exactly will that mean? fiur what exactly will that mean? our ackaue what exactly will that mean? our package goes _ what exactly will that mean? oi" package goes further, there what exactly will that mean?

dispute or a strike going on and thatis dispute or a strike going on and that is no way to run any industry and these extreme hard left unions who still have the sebastien of power that they used to disrupt passengers and prevent obvious and needed modernisation, including modernisation to the safety of our railways from going ahead. mick then she was on the _ railways from going ahead. mick then she was on the programme _ railways from going ahead. mick then she was on the programme a - railways from going ahead. mick then she was on the programme a few i she was on the programme a few minutes ago and we have heard from disputes on all sides, they could be easily settled in some way. why don't you get involved? i am involved- — don't you get involved? i am involved. we _ don't you get involved? i am involved. we set _ don't you get involved? i am involved. we set the - don't you get involved? i am | involved. we set the mandate don't you get involved? i —n involved. we set the mandate for these strikes. only the unions and these strikes. only the unions and the employers can actually settle it. this is a game for them. what they want to do is pretend that if only this happened when that happened, they were settle the strikes. there have been 160 cess pit disputes lodged in the last three years whilst i have been transport separate —— 160

"160 —— 160 separate disputes. mick lynch is trying to drag us back and that is trying to drag us back and that is why i am afraid... what they need to do is when they get pay settlement, 8% was offered over two years, for example, not even bothering to put it to their members demonstrate that the union simply want to prolong the strike, which is completely wrong. they have been taking passengers for a ride for far too long and it is right we do something about that. b’s too long and it is right we do something about that.- something about that. 896 is something _ something about that. 896 is something mick _ something about that. 896 is something mick lynch i something about that. 8% is something mick lynch disputed. i'm sure you will have heard this already. legal opinion commissioned by the tuc says that the transport secretary has very extensive powers over what can be agreed between rail operators and unions and has very significant contractual power to direct how industrial disputes are handled. i know you havejust said that you are involved, but shouldn't you be in the room, banging everybody�*s heads together and trying to get a result?

people, they will not allow digital time sheets to be used, and many other problems which prevent our railways running in a modern way for passengers in the 21st—century. it cannot be right that they are permanently in dispute. they are paid on average £44,000. the median pay for a railway worker. i see the train drivers are striking come the weekend. they are paid on average nearly £60,000 median salary. government has to make a choice between ensure that our nurses, who asked paid —— are paid significantly less, and other key workers are paid and people who are pretty well paid. these unions are militant, they are doing it because they want to be in per minute dispute. they should be putting his office to their members and i am sure we would have it settle if they did. i and i am sure we would have it settle if they did.— settle if they did. i want to clari , settle if they did. i want to clarify. the _ settle if they did. i want to clarify, the ons _ settle if they did. i want to clarify, the ons have i settle if they did. i want to i clarify, the ons have produced a median figure excluding train drivers, who were not involved in the rmt strike, that is £36,000. rmt the rmt strike, that is £36,000. rmt the figure is closer to £33,000

because that includes cleaners who are not categorised as rail workers. why are you suggesting to me that because a labour government didn't get involved because the london labour mayor is not involved that a conservative minister should not be involved? , ., ,, , conservative minister should not be involved? , .«i , ., conservative minister should not be involved? , ., ,, , ., ., . . ., involved? this takes into account there are about _ involved? this takes into account there are about 100,000 - involved? this takes into account there are about 100,000 people| involved? this takes into account i there are about 100,000 people who work in our railways will stop the 44,000 median figure of pay does not include drivers who themselves are paid close to 60,000. they are on strike, as life are on strike on the 18th and 20th of august. —— an out aslef are on strike. as i say, it doesn't matter whether we are talking about nhs pay or police pay or at any of the many other key workers, public sector workers that government ministers ultimately have responsibility for. ministers are neverin responsibility for. ministers are never in the room for those discussions because only the employer who, after all, will be the one able to resolve these technical

problems like why we don't have contracts in many railway lines to ensure people have to work occasionally on some days. at the moment we run, on some lines, sunday services entirely from the goodwill of railway workers who may or may not wish to work on a sunday, particularly if there has been a big football match the night before. this is no way to run a modern service. only the employers and unions can resolve that and that is why it is a complete red herring that the unions keep saying that there is some magic way to resolve it. if they want to resolve it they can do that now by putting the office they are getting to their members, and if they are not going to do that, i have written in the telegraph this morning on 16 different measures that i think we now need to introduce, including preventing collusion between the unions to make sure that the balance is redressed in favour of the passengers on our railways mick l nch passengers on our railways mick lynch would _ passengers on our railways mick lynch would he _ passengers on our railways mick lynch would he speaks - passengers on our railways mick lynch would he speaks to his members every day. i want to move away from the strikes. i want to talk about

conservative leadership and who might be our next prime minister. you are team sunak, why is rishi sunak doing a u—turn on vat on energy bills? i sunak doing a u-turn on vat on energy bills?— sunak doing a u-turn on vat on energy bills? i don't really accept that at all- _ energy bills? i don't really accept that at all. he _ energy bills? i don't really accept that at all. he has _ energy bills? i don't really accept that at all. he has provided i energy bills? i don't really accept that at all. he has provided a i energy bills? i don't really accept that at all. he has provided a lot| that at all. he has provided a lot of help in the past on energy bills and overall in this cost of living squeeze, some £37 billion of help, so the idea that providing another 4.2 billion, about £160 off energy bills by removing the vat for one year only is somehow a departure from what he has been doing. i think thatis from what he has been doing. i think that is to incorrectly describe what he has in mind, which is trying to help people, as we now know, where the energy cap may fall or the likely price of gas as we get towards the autumn, proposing assistance now is both timely and a good measure which is not inflationary.— good measure which is not inflationary. good measure which is not inflationa . , , ., ., inflationary. this is the man who said he will _ inflationary. this is the man who said he will not _ inflationary. this is the man who said he will not be _ inflationary. this is the man who said he will not be cutting - inflationary. this is the man who j said he will not be cutting taxes, the man who said he will not be cutting taxes suggesting he will cut

in vat on energy bills if the cap goes over £3000, that is a u—turn. that is not accurate. he isjust provided what some describe as the biggest ever tax cut this month, where we saw a huge effective tax cut for anybody earning their nic, you can now get over £12,500, your national insurance is no longer taxed. that is a huge tax cut. he has also outlined several other tax cuts, including some which wouldn't be brought in until inflation was under control. this particular measure, along with many other measures which provided £1200 to the hardest pressed households already, is targeted to make sure that some of those energy bills which have been going up very fast because of the actions of vladimir putin in ukraine, that is tackled, and it is consistent with what he has done in the past and is not inflationary and those are the important things about

good morning, welcome to breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. our headlines today. commentator: fran kirby goes for the chip. - lindahl can't keep it out. england's lionesses roar into the final of the euros to the delight of fans. it is coming home. i thought, "oh my, this is going to be hard." and then, barn, 4—0. it was a great game, though — great game. a special night in sheffield.

expect more celebrations if england can go one step further and win the final on sunday as they continue to inspire the next generation. good morning from a very quiet euston station after 40,000 rail workers walked out on strike. we will look at why things have not moved forward in how the issue is becoming increasingly political and what it means if you plan to travel today. i'm on the motorway. i think you'll already have a million calls about an accident. the chilling 999 call after a lorry piles into stationary traffic — we hear about the lives affected one year after the crash. good morning, for many a dry start with sunshine but there are showers in the forecast and, through the day, the cloud will build. but in the next days, it will turn warmer. all the details throughout the programme. it's wednesday, 27thjuly.

whisper it, but it might be coming home. it really might. england are through to the final of the women's european championship at wembley on sunday after thrashing sweden in last night's semi—final. no need to whisper any more. the lionesses beat the tournament's top—ranked side 4—0 to set up a clash with either germany or france, who play tonight. our correspondent natalie pirks was at bramall lane. the relief was palpable, the joy was intense. and the dancing? fit for a wembley final. music: sweet caroline. sweden are ranked second in the world and, from the off, were intent on showing us why. commentator: earps forced into a very early save. - england yet again started with the same xi sarina wiegman had

put her faith in throughout. within four minutes, top scorer beth mead almost repaid that trust. it's a good one. 0h, on the bar. heart—in—mouth moments. england's goalkeeper busier than in all previous matches. england needed to take a breath, and with calm heads came the breakthrough. mead! she's done it again. england lead in the semifinal. the ecstatic gasps of 30,000 england fans inhaling the ball into the net for mead's sixth of the tournament. half—time brought a welcome respite and a chance to remind each other to leave no regrets on the bramall lane pitch. lucy bronze got the memo. lucy bronze strikes gold for england! the dreaded var check meant an anxious wait. finally, confirmation came of how close it was. var once again sweden's nemesis.

ellen white had played her part. the dynamic crowd favourite alessia russo came on, hoping to make another impact. she would get her chance, but not before england once again had to be alert. oh, what a save, earps. it wasn't a clean shot, but the save needed to be perfection. mary earps, take a bow. from one goalkeeper�*s pleasure to an absolute howler. russo an absolute menace in sweden's box. but this backheel was audacious. oh, my. lindahl will never want to see that again. but if she thought it was over, she was wrong. england's march to the wembley arch was becoming a canter and fran kirby's mastery in midfield reaped the rewards she so deserved. delirium inside bramall lane! and when the final whistle blew and that semifinal hoodoo had been banished, the emotions could finally flow for players and for fans.

i think with the full—time whistle, we didn't really know what to do. as you can tell, unbelievable atmosphere. we're ecstatic to be in the final. oh, it was brilliant. absolutely brilliant. i'm buzzing for the final. ithought, "oh, my, this is going to be hard." - and then, bam, 4—0. it was a great game, though. a great game. crazy. - 4-0. who would have thought it? semifinal, onto the final now. so, yeah, great stuff. i think sarina wiegman's done a fantasticjob. yeah. she's brought the youth back in. she's got experience there. these fans, these players, in sarina they trust. it's been less than a year she's been in thejob, but the impact she's made is clear. 13 years it had been since england had been in the final of a major tournament. who would bet against them now? natalie pirks, bbc news, sheffield.

what a night. absolutely great. and what a night on sunday. let's get more from john, who is in leeds. he is with people who are celebrating, too. good morning. good morning. after the disappointment with exits and semifinals previously, they have gone past that to book their place in the final. a lot of reaction. everybody watching last night. the duke and duchess of cambridge included. they said after that result was confirmed... borisjohnson boris johnson tweeted. .. gary lineker said...

and this sums up everybody's feelings from a former england player. saying yes! and we have seen you this picture of a girl dancing at bramall lane last night. we want to know who she is. do you know? we would love to hear from you on the programme this morning. i think we can guess how it was for you last night. great moves, great dancing. a great atmosphere inside the stadium. we said this morning it is coming home. it is getting closer. we are in the right postcode. studio: we are definitely in the right postcode. he is not, he is in leeds. for some people, leeds is the right

postcode. but it is not wembley. he has time to get there, if there are no more rail strikes. there's severe travel disruption again today, as 40,000 rail workers take further strike action in a continuing dispute over pay, jobs and working conditions. only 20% of rail services are set to run today — highlighted by the red lines — but even these services will be limited and shortened. the grey lines show the huge swathes of britain that will have no rail access at all. nina is at euston for us this morning. normally so busy at rush—hour but this morning a depleted service. many of you will know this station very well. 70 millionjourneys many of you will know this station very well. 70 million journeys out of the station every year and the main transport hub to get to the west midlands from the capital, north—west england, north wales and scotland. but this place, often busy trying to get off the concourse and onto the platform. maybe 100

passengers and a handful ofjourneys on the departure board. 20% of services running today after 40,000 rail workers walked out at midnight. services that are running start later at 7:30am and finish at 6:30pm. examples of busy routes. london to edinburgh is usually busy and the last leaves at tpm and the last to manchester is atjust after 3:30pm. at some parts of the country there are no services such as blackpool, bournemouth, great yarmouth. and this is an increasingly politicised issue about which side of the fence you are on. we spoke earlier to the transport... shadow transport minister for labour party and decided tojoin mick shadow transport minister for labour party and decided to join mick lynch from the rmt on the picket line saying something has to give. and

this remains a three—way split with the workers saying the deal is not good enough so the government must get involved and the government saying it has nothing to do with them and it is up to network rail and network rail saying they have come up with a deal but it is not good enough. we can speak to the chief executive of network rail. 8% over three years, that is nowhere near inflation? i over three years, that is nowhere near inflation?— near inflation? i think it is a good deal near inflation? i think it is a good deal. 8%. — near inflation? i think it is a good deal- 896. no _ near inflation? i think it is a good deal. 8%, no compulsory - near inflation? i think it is a good - deal. 8%, no compulsory redundancy guaranteed which the rmt said matter to them. discounted travel, something many network rail workers have wanted and cash bonuses. the package is good but also fair because it does not involve an increase in fares or taxes. if we go more than that we will be asking the taxpayer, the passenger to pay. flan taxpayer, the passenger to pay. can we be clear— taxpayer, the passenger to pay. can we be clear on redundancies. mick

correspondent iain watson. good morning. we had grant shapps on saying it was not a u—turn. there saying it was not a u-turn. there ou are, saying it was not a u-turn. there you are. he _ saying it was not a u-turn. there you are, he obviously _ saying it was not a u-turn. there you are, he obviously is - saying it was not a u-turn. there i you are, he obviously is supportive of the rishi sunak campaign. the unique selling point during the contest for rishi sunak has been financial responsibility, denouncing the plans of liz truss for immediate tax cuts as immoral but now he proposes a swift tax cut of his own so from the ist of october you take vat off energy bills if they go above £3000 and he said it would save the average household £160. he said it is temporary and targeted. but it shows the ferocious nature of the contest that the liz truss campaign has notjust called this a screeching u—turn but it has been helpfully giving journalists lots of

quotes from rishi sunak in february when he said this kind of cut would disproportionately help wealthier households and so let's be honest with ourselves, it might be temporary but there is a danger it would become a permanent subsidy as he calls it. when you reach this level of noise on either side of the campaign it is difficult to see how they can unite on september the 5th when one of them becomes prime minister, especially when they are not just saying this minister, especially when they are notjust saying this is wrong, this is setting up my stall, they are accusing each other of behaving and morally. ma; accusing each other of behaving and morall . g ,, accusing each other of behaving and morall. g ,, . it was a year ago when a lorry ploughed into a queue of stationary traffic on the motorway near durham, killing three people. the driver had been looking at dating apps on his phone. now a documentary has been made using footage from the day, and the police say they hope it will raise awareness about dangerous driving.

this report from jonathan swingler contains images you may find distressing. i was heading up from darlington, up the motorway to work. hillary thompson normally answers 999 calls. today, she'll be making one. i thought to myself, "wow, he's going fast for the distance he's got to stop for this stationary traffic." and then i thought he's not going to stop. and then he just literally went into the back of the queueing traffic. the lorry is travelling at almost 60 miles an hour. it crushes two vehicles, collides with another hgv and then swerves into two more cars, including the red one driven by molly smith.

ijust remember all of a sudden feeling that impact, hearing the kind of crashing sounds of metal. my hands were shaking that much. i couldn't...| couldn't dial. i couldn't do anything. anyway, eventually i managed to ring. recording: i'm on the motorway. i think you'll already have a million calls about an accident. are you ok? i'm 0k. i've just seen it. it's a lorry. there's people, i'm sure. it's gone up in flames and everything. and the amount of fire that was going on around, ijust thought, no, i need to get away from this. you don't know if anything else is going to catch fire or explode or anything like that. so i started to move in the opposite direction. in the distance, i could see a huge plume of thick, black smoke. - what was noticeable first . was the smell from the fire and the heat coming from the fire. so if you imagine i've gone past,

it's been on the other side - of the road, gone past at some speed, and it was like - opening the oven door — just that intense heat. l just to confirm, there's a paramedic here on scene, army, i believe, - and there is somebody deceased inside a vehicle. _ i arrived on scene to see - that there was a deceased male. that's when you know it's serious. like a bomb's gone off. just for the a log. we will have to disturb the wreckage. just to ensure that there's no one else in there. i'm being told that there is a second fatality at the scene. it's definitely been hit. do you need to go to hospital? are they checking you in? because i'm pregnant, so it's best to go. how far are you? 26 weeks. 0k. at least two obvious fatalities. david daglish and elaine sullivan

from seaham were found in a car embedded in the wreckage of the burning truck. and paul mullen, from washington, died in his pick—up truck. the driver of the silver wagon on fire has been located — fit and well. everything happened too fast. everybody pulled their brakes super—fast. well, it was a bit surreal — to look at the lorry- and to look at him unscathed. it's like, is this the driver? how can it be? have you got your mobile phone with you, at the moment? could i take that from you, please? and this is the moment that would change his life for ever. we could see he'd been on his mobile phone pretty much all of the day. he was travelling at about 58mph, on his mobile phone, at the point that he ploughed in the back of the standstill traffic. i'll ask you there, are you responsible for causing the death of those three persons, for the offence of death by dangerous driving? no comment. in court, onut had admitted causing death by dangerous driving. now, starting his eight—year, ten—month sentence, he's broken his silence. i want to apologise.

i want to just say i'm really sorry, because i feel really _ bad for what happened. i feel bad for the people who lost loved ones. - people were injured and they have to suffer with back—flashes - and injuries for the rest of their lives. _ it's hard. it's truly hard to accept that. plus, living for the rest- of your life with that in your head is not easy, either. i don't know what else to say. junior sullivan's parents were killed in the crash. as part of this process, he has to be interviewed. and during the interview, he said a few words about how he feels and how it's affected him. are you sure you are all right in watching it? yeah.

there is a million things i can tell people, you know. - but i want to apologise. i want to just say i'm really sorry. all right? yeah. makes you realise he is sort ofjust a human. doesn't make a difference in terms of necessarily how i feel about him or whatever else. but it doesn't take away from what he's done, no. but if people look at it and think, well, actually, i don't want to be that person, i don't want to be in prison, i don't want to have killed three people, that on my conscience. look at what it's doing to this guy, look at where he is, then, hopefully, they'll take something away from that. it happened to me and here i am. that's the reason i'm in prison. for what? ruin your life. ruin many other people's lives. to have people like me

and other emergency services still thinking about it. and, you know, driving past here and thinking about that day and the victims. here's my cheeky girl. god, you so easily could not have been here. jonathan put that piece together. there is a documentary we will give the details for. taking those perspectives about one moment and the impact on so many lives. we're joined now by detective constable natalie horner, and inspector kevin salter, from durham police. natalie, just the most incredibly powerful bit of television that is available for everybody to watch right now. take me back to your first thoughts when you heard about

what happened. first thoughts when you heard about what happened-— what happened. looking back that da , 'ust what happened. looking back that day. just over _ what happened. looking back that day. just over a — what happened. looking back that day, just over a year _ what happened. looking back that day, just over a year on, - what happened. looking back that day, just over a year on, it - what happened. looking back that day, just over a year on, it was . day, just over a year on, it was unimaginable to think the lorry had ploughed into stationary traffic at almost 60 mph and to know we had multiple deaths that day. it still makes you tingle thinking about how traumatic it was for the emergency services, everybody. you traumatic it was for the emergency services, everybody.— services, everybody. you see the wreckage. _ services, everybody. you see the wreckage. and — services, everybody. you see the wreckage, and you _ services, everybody. you see the wreckage, and you and _ services, everybody. you see the wreckage, and you and your - wreckage, and you and your colleagues having to deal with that in the moment and then investigate in the moment and then investigate in forensic detail months afterwards. it in forensic detail months afterwards.— in forensic detail months afterwards. ., . ., afterwards. it goes on and on. it did. it afterwards. it goes on and on. it did- it went _ afterwards. it goes on and on. it did. it went on _ afterwards. it goes on and on. it did. it went on and _ afterwards. it goes on and on. it did. it went on and on _ afterwards. it goes on and on. it did. it went on and on but - afterwards. it goes on and on. it did. it went on and on but our. did. it went on and on but our priority at the time was getting those poor people identified and making sure their loved ones found out quickly about who had passed away. it is so sad to think those people died that day. they could have been saved, if he had not been on his phone. it is
