celebrations in turkey for president erdogan�*s election victory, but he has a divided country and an economic crisis to deal with. famous comedians band together to say the pollution in windermere is no laughing matter. and luton are the talk of the town as they celebrate their promotion to the premier league. good evening. "potentially alarming" and "unhelpful" — just some of the concerns expressed by those working in mental health care at plans announced by britain's biggest police force, the met, to stop attending 999 calls for mental health emergencies unless there's an immediate threat to life. the met commissioner, sir mark rowley, says he needs to free up officers to attend other incidents. the charity mind has urged the commissioner to work with the nhs to find a solution that doesn't put vulnerable people at risk. here's our home editor mark easton.

have you harmed yourself today at all? an increasing proportion of 999 calls to the police relate to a mental health crisis. have you tried to take your own life before? she's saying she can't breathe. this is wrong, man, this is wrong. and now the metropolitan police commissioner has made it clear that from september his officers won't attend mental health incidents unless there's a risk to life. in a letter to health and care agencies, sir mark rowley says londoners are being failed by sending police officers, not medical professionals, to those in mental health crisis and expecting them to do their best in circumstances where they're not the right people to be dealing with the patient. some of the national analysis suggests that the work going on across the country where police officers dealing with mental health is the equivalent capacity that could deal with 500,000 victims of domestic violence. the suggestion that officers will refuse to attend many calls relating to psychological crisis has alarmed a former inspector

of constabulary who now chairs a mental health trust. for the metropolitan police to potentially, as this story is being reported, to step away from those crisis calls well, there isn't another agency to step in and fill the vacuum, so, yes, i'm alarmed. i want to see how this works through. the model for what scotland yard is proposing is the right care, right person scheme, adopted by police in humberside in 2020, in which officers do not attend a call if a mental health professional would be more appropriate. i am not persuaded that this is the entirely correct approach. i mean, what we know is that it is best for individuals and patients if the nhs and the police work hand in hand to resolve this problem. with continued focus on the performance and conduct of scotland yard officers, the commissioner wants to move the conversation on to what the priorities of the police should be. it's an argument that goes back to the birth of the metropolitan police itself,

when sir robert peel said that bobbies were paid to give theirfull—time attention to the interests of community welfare. sorry to jump on you like this. but what does community welfare mean? should beat officers walk away from the confused elderly man or the deeply distressed teenager they're called to help? senior officers want to encourage a political debate on what the police are for. and mark is here. a big move by the met commissioner here, what's going to happen? so mark rowley has set up a team inside scotland yard to help with —— work with health and care agency on how they might implement his mental health ultimatum, because this is really about how responsibility in his view needs to shift in those muddled spaces where public spaces overlap, but what point should the police legitimately say this is not ourjob, and walk away? 0r

police legitimately say this is not ourjob, and walk away? or as so mark rowley puts it, having the right professional at the right time. there are increasing demands on mental health services and generally their budgets are not ring fenced, so when the call comes in, someone is in distress, who has the resources to respond? that i think will be the key question. mark easton, will be the key question. mark easton. many _ will be the key question. mark easton, many thanks. - turkey's re—elected president recep tayyip erdogan says he has a job to do to reunite the country following his narrow victory. president erdogan won the run—off election with 52% of the vote to the opposition�*s 48. but as well as dealing with a deeply divided country, he also has an economic crisis on his hands — with inflation, that's the rate at which prices rise, running at over a0%. 0ur chief international correspondent 0rla guerin reports. it was a long night of celebration for one side of turkey. supporters of president recep tayyip erdogan massed outside his presidential palace

here, marking a hard fought victory. "i've been voting for him since i was 18," this lady tells us. "my generation backs erdogan. we won the election fairly, thank god. recep tayyip erdogan, i love you, a lot." in istanbul, he did it his way. with a sing—along for supporters of his ruling ak party and an attack on familiar targets. "is the opposition pro—lgbt?" he asks. "could any lgbt infiltrate our party?" "no," they chorus. over at the opposition�*s headquarters, it was like a funeral.

almost half the voters were with them, not the president. the election has crystallised the divisions here, and the opposition is warning of trouble ahead. it's already visible here in currency exchange rates. the turkish lira fell again to a record low on news of the president's victory. experts say he has mismanaged the economy, resulting in rampant inflation. some of the young now see no future here. translation: i don't have hope anymore. i i don't have hope for turkey. i want to move abroad as soon as possible. translation: the country is in a bad situation. - i pray to god that he's going to be good for everyone. translation: i look at the people around me who are supporting - the opposition and all of them are really resentful. _ but many others here can't see a future without

recep tayyip erdogan. his base is religious, conservative and nationalist. his loyal supporters have given him five more years to reshape turkey in his image and theirs. 0rla guerin, bbc news, ankara. russian missiles have again hit ukraine's capital, kyiv, after two nights of heavy drone strikes. there have been 16 air assaults on the city this month. the missiles were all reportedly shot down and there are no reports of casualties. unusually the latest attack took place by day and appeared to target the city centre. debris from the intercepted missiles landed in residential areas in central kyiv. russia's previous air attacks on the capital were mostly directed at critical infrastructure and air defences on the outskirts. seven men aged between 28 and 72 have been remanded in custody in northern ireland after appearing in court accused of the attempted murder of a senior police officer.

detective chief inspectorjohn caldwell was shot multiple times outside a sports complex in 0magh in february. he'd been coaching a youth football team, and was with his young son at the time. the former this morning presenter phillip schofield has denied there was a toxic culture on the programme when he was there. dermot 0'leary and alison hammond presented today as the show aired for the first time since phillip schofield quit itv on friday, after admitting an affair with a much younger male colleague. in a statement he said those with what he called the �*loudest voices' following his departure had a �*grudge' against him. some of the biggest names in comedy havejoined a protest against sewage being pumped into england's largest lake, lake windermere. among them are paul whitehouse, lee mack and steve coogan, who have been speaking to our reporter alison freeman. i think it's become an issue that everybody�*s engaged with. putting the spotlight on pollution.

hundreds of people turned out today to see high—profile comedians join the save windermere campaign. campaigners are saying that repeated dumping of sewage into the waterways is causing serious ecological damage to the lake, which is a hugely popular tourist destination. windermere is the jewel in the rural crown of england, it's our largest freshwater lake, and the place isjust being degraded and wilfully destroyed. the biggest polluters by far are united utilities, by their own admission. they announced an emergency amount of i think it was between 20 and 40 million that would be spent exclusively on windermere. don't forget, last year they paid out 300 million in dividends to investors. but the water company argues it's not solely their responsibility. i think if you speak— to the experts, they would tell you that lake windermere certainly isn't dying. - but it is facing challenges, - things like increased temperature, climate change and the increased

pressures of tourism. _ and that's why we all have to work together as a community. - and there was strong feeling about the future of the lake amongst the crowd. when i was a kid, before i was in a wheelchair, used to go swimming all the time in there. i don't want things to die in it. it's up to the politicians to enforce severe sanctions on the water companies, especially with the amount of profits they make. it's absolutely unreal. united utilities says it will be spending hundreds of millions of pounds on improving the water network in the region, but campaigners fear the lake could be ecologically dead in just a few years' time. alison freeman, bbc news, the lake district. now, this row of terraces will become familiar to away fans of premier league clubs, after luton town gained promotion to the top flight via the play—offs on saturday. today, the town came out in force,

as the team parade their trophy. matt graveling joined the crowds. the hatters are flying high. luton town, back in the big time after 31 years. thousands of fans all lining a one—mile stretch, watching their heroes on the road to the premier league. that's what football is about, isn't it? community and making everyone happy, putting a smile on their face. you know, these people work hard to come and support us on a saturday and for us to return the favour like this, it's a really good feeling. today's parade began at kenilworth road, luton town's home for more than a century. but this 10,000 capacity stadium will first have a £12 million update before it welcomes football's elite in august. awaiting the team's arrival, a sea of orange filling st george's square. the stage was set. 15 years ago, these fans almost watch their team go bankrupt. nine years ago, they were playing in the fifth tier of english football.

now look at today, what a difference a premier league team makes to a community. i think it's something positive for luton. luton is always shrouded in negativity, so this is great. it's got a story to it, a proper fairy tale story. you know, we've done it with no money, we've done it just with togetherness. it means so much to us. honestly, like, we needed this. as you can see, the town's crazy at the minute. - rob edwards has only been leading luton since november, but has already won over the town. we've got to enjoy this moment now, it's for you guys. look how many people are here now, look what it means to you all, enjoy it, make some noise, come on! cheering. these fans may soon watch their team in a brand—new stadium paid for in part by promotion. but until then, these happy hatters are just pleased to be back in english football's top tier. matt graveling, bbc news. in the premier league, chelsea have announced that mauricio pochettino will become their new head coach.

the argentine will begin his role injuly on a two—year contract, with a club option of a further year. pochettino returns to the premier league after previously managing tottenham hotspur for five years. sheffield wednesday have secured promotion to the championship with a dramatic extra time winner against barnsley, who were down to ten men, at wembley. just moments before the game was due to go to penalties, josh windass scored in last seconds of stoppage time. it's been 50 years since the band sparks first ignited the world of pop — becoming famous for their quirky theatrical style. but rather than exiting the stage into retirement, tonight they play the first of two sold—out nights at the royal albert hall afterjust releasing their 26th album. david sillito has been to meet them. we are sparks... ..dude. please welcome... ..sparks. most pop careers start with a bang, and then it's a slow fade, but not with sparks. russell had the voice,

ron the moustache, and the songwriting talent. and 50 years after writing this town ain't big enough for the both of us, they're suddenly drawing the biggest crowds of their career. you're selling out not one, but two nights, at the royal albert hall? yes! you sound even more surprised than we are, you know. we were huge anglophiles when we were growing up and getting our musical kind of inspiration early on, and part of all of that was this iconic royal albert hall that just to us was like, "oh my god, it's the... the kind of the pinnacle." their ages are, like most personal details about them,
