scotland's former first minister nicola sturgeon says she is innocent of any wrongdoing after being questioned by police investigating snp finances. changes to ofsted inspections after a headteacher took her own life while waiting for a school inspection, but critics say they don't go far enough. good morning. when times are not, who doesn't love a bargain? that's why business is booming for charity shops and second—hand sales. i will look at how we are all doing our best to beat inflation. what a day in store for treble winners manchester city and their supporters. having brought the champions league home they'll parade their trophies through the city this evening.
6:01 am
it's monday 12th june. mps who have been investigating whether borisjohnson misled parliament about covid lockdown parties are meeting today to conclude their inquiry. mrjohnson has already seen a copy of their report and he resigned as an mp on friday describing the common�*s privileges committee as a kangaroo court. our political correspondent damian grammaticas reports. this is what the privileges committee has been looking into. borisjohnson attending pandemic parties. at one he broke the law and was fined. did he lie to parliament? will the prime minister tell the house whether there was a party in downing street on the 13th of november? prime minister. mr speaker, no, but i'm sure that whatever happened, the guidance was followed and the rules were followed at all times. for almost exactly a year, the seven mps on the privileges committee, a majority of whom are conservatives, have been
6:02 am
investigating his conduct. last week, they sent him notice of the findings. certain they will be highly critical, as mrjohnson resigned abruptly on hearing the contents of the report. in his resignation statement, he insisted, "i did not lie". he accused them of being "determined to drive me out of parliament," and called it "the very definition of a kangaroo court." by itself, however, the committee could not have ended his political career. the full house of commons would have had to support any sanction it recommended. the very worst case would have been a new by—election in which he could have stood. by resigning, mrjohnson has escaped facing any sanction. but the committee is likely to publish its report this week and his kangaroo court comments may mean it adds a new section saying his conduct has impugned the integrity of parliament. damian grammaticas, bbc news.

our chief political correspondent nick eardleyjoins us now. morning, nick. so, what are we expecting — morning, nick. so, what are we expecting to hear from the privileges committee? | expecting to hear from the privileges committee? i expect we will see it at _ privileges committee? i expect we will see it at some _ privileges committee? i expect we will see it at some point _ privileges committee? i expect we will see it at some point this - privileges committee? i expect we | will see it at some point this week, probably in the next couple of days. it is going to be damning, it will be critical of mrjohnson for the way he told parliament the rules had been followed in downing street, that parties had not broken the covid restrictions, it will be critical of the evidence he gave to the committee as well earlier this year, and it will recommend a sanction which, had mrjohnson notes that on friday he was quitting parliament, would have been enough to suspend him and start the process which probably would have led to a by—election and left him fighting
6:04 am
for his political career. although borisjohnson has quit parliament, there is likely to still be a vote of mps on this committee report. i think that's going to be another tricky moment for rishi sunak because it will mean that some of the divisions in the conservative party over borisjohnson will be laid bare again. there are some tory mps being pretty frank, they want is over and done with. one said yesterday that boris johnson should shut up and go away. but the former pm has a lot of supporters still, they are happy to cause trouble on this. so it could still be a really difficult week for rishi sunak as well. . ~ , ., difficult week for rishi sunak as well. . ~' , ., , difficult week for rishi sunak as well. . ~ i. , . scotland's first minister, humza yousaf, is facing calls to suspend nicola sturgeon from the scottish national party after she was arrested as part of the police investigation into the snp's finances. ms sturgeon was released without charge pending further inquiries and has insisted she's innocent of any wrongdoing. our scotland correspondent lorna gordon has more.
6:05 am
nicola sturgeon was scotland's longest serving first minister and for years was the most powerful figure in scottish politics. on sunday she was arrested and questioned as a suspect by police for more than seven hours. after being released without charge, ms sturgeon issued an emphatic, vehement denial of any wrongdoing. "i am certain i have committed no offence," she said, describing the situation as both shocked and deeply distressing. she thanked her supporters, saying they appreciated she would never do anything to harm either the snp or the country. before insisting, in the strongest possible terms, that "i am in fact innocent of any wrongdoing." her arrest, though, is a setback for her successor as first minister. humza yousaf has been trying to regain the political initiative. speaking before ms sturgeon�*s questioning under caution, he insisted his political mentor was doing well. she and i have caught up
6:06 am
on a couple of occasions. i've been asking about her welfare, she has mentioned how difficult and traumatic those last few weeks have been. is she ok? she's in a good place, doing well. this is the third high—profile arrest in the investigation into the funding and finances of the snp. ms sturgeon�*s husband, peter murrell, the former chief executive of the party, was previously arrested and released without charge. the home they both shared searched by police. the party's headquarters was also searched. officers removing material. later they arrested and released without charge the party's former treasurer, colin beattie. back in april, ms sturgeon described it all as beyond her worst nightmares. there are many questions that i would want to be able to answer, and in the fullness of time, i hope i will answer. but it would be wrong and inappropriate for me to get into any detail that is related to what the police are currently investigating.
6:07 am
i could not have anticipated in my worst nightmares what would have unfolded over the past few weeks. her arrest has been seized on by political opponents. this is an appalling scandal at the time where scotland desperately needs change and desperately needs a government working for them to deal with their priorities. and they're certainly not getting that at the moment from either of the governments. nicola sturgeon has declared her intention to return to the scottish parliament. but there have been calls from both the opposition and from within her own party for her to be suspended from the snp while police inquiries are ongoing. lorna gordon, bbc news, glasgow. police in county antrim have charged two men after suspected human remains were found in the search for a 21—year—old woman. chloe mitchell was last seen in ballymena over a week ago. since then extensive searches took place in an attempt to find her. a 26—year—old man has been charged with murder whilst a 34—year—old man has been charged with assisting offenders. both will appear in court today.
6:08 am
an eleven—year—old british girl has been shot dead in north—western france, following a reported dispute between neighbours. the shooting happened in the village of saint—herbot, in brittany. the girl's parents were also hurt, with the father suffering serious injuries. a 71—year—old dutch national has been arrested. the education watchdog, ofsted, has set out a number of changes to school inspections in england in response to criticism surrounding the suicide of a headteacher, ruth perry. they include an overhaul of the complaints system and revisiting some schools judged "inadequate" more quickly. our education editor branwen jeffreys reports. the inspection at caversham primary graded it inadequate over keeping children safe. the suicide of the head teacher ruth perry while waiting for that report set off the debate leading to today's changes.
6:09 am
ofsted says as a result it will re—inspect schools within three months where similar concerns are raised. overhaul complaints about inspections. tell headteachers to talk to colleagues in confidence about likely results. ofsted says it's keeping a focus on children but has listened. julia walters, ruth perry's sister, has met ministers and officials. she says this is a start with much more needed. telling me it's wrong that schools are summed up with one overall judgment. i believe if the single word judgment is not removed, that all of the doubtless hard work and efforts to improve the inspection system will be seen to be wasted. it was the thing that preyed on ruth's mind for those 5a days, that one word, the fact
6:10 am
that it was one word that was summing up 32 years of dedication to the education profession. that one word, inadequate, diminished everything else. i'm furious. are you furious? in sheffield parents have been campaigning. their secondary school judged inadequate, they were told it had to become an academy. it's a bit of a heart sink moment because inadequate, i mean, that's essentially a failing school. one of the other campaigners said parents were stunned. it's not... the one word judgment doesn't just label the school. it labels the whole school community. so there was a lot of upset, i think, and confusion and some anger, but also mainly people just not knowing what this was going to mean. this is just really cemented for me that the ofsted report doesn't really reflect what a school is and everything that
6:11 am
a school is about. ofsted reports are there for parents but they have other consequences. the debate about those is far from over. branwen jeffreys, bbc news. we will speak to julia waters we will speak tojulia waters later in the programme, the sister of ruth perry who was mentioned, and we will also speak to the chief inspector of ofsted about those changes and what they could mean for schools across england, that is in the next hour or so. at least ten people have been killed and more than 20 people left injured following a bus crash in australia. the passengers were returning from a wedding at a winery near greta, on the eastern coast of australia, when their coach overturned. police say they are investigating the circumstances surrounding the crash. the bus driver has been arrested. three british tourists are missing after a diving boat caught fire off egypt's red sea coastline yesterday morning. 26 people, including 12 britons,
6:12 am
were rescued from the vessel. the local authority said that the fire was caused by an electrical short circuit in the engine room. the foreign office says it's supporting the british nationals. a 16—year—old boy is due to appear before magistrates today, charged with two counts of attempted murder after a violent assault at a boarding school in devon left two students in hospital. police said the teenager is also charged with causing grievous bodily harm with intent at blundell�*s school near tiverton in devon. one of the boys who was injured is in a critical condition it was a big night forjodie comer who was among the british winners at the prestigious tony theatre awards for her performance in the one—woman broadway show, prima facie. the killing eve star said she was "overwhelmed", and it has been her "greatest honour" to play the role. there was also an award for the playwright,

6:18 am
forecast wise to date we have a warm day, a lot of sunshine around, and we are looking at some thunderstorms. some real humdinger is, 30 millimetres of rainfall in an hour, possibly double of that, in a few hours. there is a risk of some flooding. to start with we have got a few showers dotted around, most of which are in wales. through the day you will find they will tend to develop further, likely to be heavy and thundery, north—west scotland, the west of northern ireland, wales, central and southern england towards the south—east. at the same time cloud across the south coast. in between sunshine as well, temperatures up to 30 celsius around the cumbria area, generally the mid to high 20s. this evening and overnight, the showers will tend to fade away, some clear skies, still low cloud across southern counties of england, mostly close to the
6:19 am
coast as well as the south—west and the channel islands. another humid night, good to see a few showers across north—west england. into tomorrow, and largely try note, hang on to some coastal mist and low cloud around the south coast. tomorrow will be largely dry for most, do the afternoon, some showers, in wales and northern ireland and possibles central and southern england and they could be thundery. the rest of the week, it will stay quite warm but we should leave use —— lose the humidity which is welcome for many of us. isaid i said that carroll would have a proper forecast. sales of new petrol and diesel cars are due to stop by 2030, but the chief executive of one of the uk's biggest service station chains doesn't think we're ready for more electric cars.
6:20 am
the government target for fast electric chargers is set to be missed, and the man who runs the moto chain says the government hasn't done enough. richard bilton reports. the electric revolution is on its way. in seven years, all new cars will be evs or hybrids. here we are. and there are the machines all lined up. but you wouldn't know that looking at our service stations. this one is pretty good. but the government plan was by now there'd be six rapid chargers at every station in england. some don't have any. if you look at the network of service stations, it's pretty unimpressive. some don't have any at all. i think it's only one in four have the six that the government wants. so why is it so slow the roll—out? it's been quite a tortuous process, to be honest, to get the energy that's required. getting chargers is not a challenge. getting power is a major challenge. these are big infrastructure investments, but it needs government
6:21 am
intervention and support because i think we need to decarbonise. i think what they didn't do was fully understand the implications and the requirements around power. the government says it will support upgrading the electricity system and that the number of chargers has more than quadrupled in four years. in the highlands, this business is trying to get ready. they've spent £500,000 converting 5% of their fleet to evs. as a business, a business owner, you've got to start looking to the future and we've got this time bomb tech and with time bomb ticking with net zero coming up. so when we start doing this, we are starting ourjourney, albeit it's 5% of my fleet. so it's not like it's changed the world for us, but it's a big step and it's a bold step for us. and hopefully people will see that businesses our size are prepared to actually do something rather
6:22 am
than just wait. sophia drives an ev, but like millions of people, doesn't have a driveway, so she plugs in through the front window. so does it go through the window? yeah, yeah. i'll pass it through. she says she's got understanding neighbours. she's got an electric car and she charges it by stretching the wire from a window there. what do you think about that? that solution isn't brilliant, is it? that's the best that she can do. yeah. yeah, it is. i would do it. if you ask me, i would do it. would you? yes. so i call the council, i email them. i just try to find out what are my options, what can i do? i ask if i can have, like, a designated bay, like a reserved area, and just they don't have any answers because they don't have a system in place yet. i think people might watch this and go, oh, that sounds like a lot of effort. it is a lot of effort. i'm not going to lie. it is effort, but i enjoy the effort. yeah, there's challenges, it's not easy peasy, it's not the norm, it's not what everybody has been doing. but it's100% better.
6:23 am
the government says residents can apply for a grant towards installing a home charger and that it's invested £2 billion into accelerating the transition to electric vehicles. but 90% of the uk's cars are still petrol or diesel, and the electronic dream still feels a long way down the road. richard bilton, bbc news. to find out more, you can watch a special panorama called electric cars: is it time to buy? on bbc one and bbc iplayer tonight at 8pm. still to come on breakfast. we never looked at anybody else. we just sort of went together and that was it. happy anniversary to eric and dorothy who are celebrating their 75th wedding anniversary today. look at them!

6:25 am
still says "it's a real privilege to represent uxbridge and south ruislip in parliament." he goes on — "i am fighting for the interests of our residents". well, mrjohnson's decision to step down divided residents at the weekend. i'm sad, really, because i don't like no—one losing theirjobs. he should have been kept in this area, you know, in the thing, myself. just...broke the rules, innit? i didn't really like him. sad for him, really. i think he done the country a good turn, if i'm honest, _ during covid and that. this country is gone completely because of him — because of his actions — and he doesn't take responsibility for anything. and the man the government chose to be minister for london for around three years hasn't made it onto their shortlist to be their candidate for mayor of london. paul scully, the mp for sutton and cheam, only stepped down to pursue his goal of becoming mayor of london — but conservative party hq decided against him. the tory shortlist is made of london assembly member susan hall, former number 10 aide

daniel korski, or barrister mozammel hossain. the party will decide upon their candidate next month. the warm weather means a busy time for ice—cream vans, but they could soon be banned from roads in the royal borough of greenwich. plans have been published to ban on ice—cream vans from 30 roads including around greenwich park and woolwich. council documents show the ban was proposed due to what's called the "nuisance" caused by trading and the impact on air quality from "engine idling". a final decision will be made on wednesday. let's take a look at the tubes now. pa rt part closure on the london overground because of some issues at clapham junction. now onto the weather with kate. good morning. it was a warm, humid, quite uncomfortable night for many. beautiful sunrise there you can see over in twickenham first thing this morning. now, today, there is a chance

the way up to 8 million. so that desire to buy and sell instead of getting stuffed new is booming, partly because all feeling skint with inflation at over 10%. is everybody a winner? ben boulos has been finding out. second—hand, pre—loved, recycled — when it comes to clothes, more of us are seeking out bargains instead of always buying new. and where there are trends, there are business opportunities. first, the fashion blogger and advisor. rosie has 4,000 subscribers who follow her tips on where and how to buy second—hand, like at this sct charity shop in east london. just walk into your local charity shop — you don't have to buy anything the first time, butjust get comfortable in the space, get comfortable with rummaging a little bit. it's not like going into a high—street shop — it is a little bit different — and i personally like that about it. ifind it quite relaxing. there's not, like, blasting music, things like that. and then also there's some fantastic apps like vinted, where you can...
6:31 am
sorry, i got distracted because there's a girl trying the shoes i really want on! laughter. i find a pair of shoes that i love, but then i wear them until they fall apart. so i'm constantly looking for, like, the next pair of shoes that i can wear to death. and the ones we saw you buy today — how much were they? they were £65. bargain! i think so. i mean, from what you said about them being 500 retail, i'm very happy. i didn't know that — ijust like the way they look. so, rosie, as someone like me, where do you begin when you're presented with all of this choice? i feel like you've just got to dive in and kind of see what you can find. with charity shops, often things can be, like, hidden, so just have a proper look because you can find, like, some real hidden gems sort of buried between two pieces of clothing. 0k. what kind of colours do you wear, as well? i feel like that's also a great way to... so i quite like something a little bit bright, something with a little bit of colour, a bit of character. 0k. i mean, you'd never tell from this jacket, would you? so this is levi, so you know it would be really good quality.
6:32 am
ohh, 0k. and how much is this? £7? £7, which is amazing. it's not bad — £7. what do you think, shall i try this? yeah, try it on for sure. right. let's give it a go. there we go — what do you think? so good. i love it. really nice. what do you think — tucked in, tucked out? i'm a tucked—out person, personally. you're the expert. i'll go with you. rosie, thank you very much. the thing is, though, what if you're not sure where to get the best bargains? maybe you don't have time and you may not have an expert like rosie out shopping with you. well, enter our next business — the online seller, isabella. she started selling unwanted clothes on the app depop to make some extra cash while studying. it's now herfull—time business, with three staff and sales totalling £800,000 since 2015. so how does it work? for example, some of the items that i source might come from, like, warehouses. there are, like, huge warehouses in the uk full of vintage stock. like, it's almost unimaginable. a lot of my pieces come from there.
6:33 am
i have a buyer who is one of my full—time employees and she goes around the country sourcing second—hand for me. i style the pieces, shoot the looks on my little tripod. once i've shot it, then we list it on the app and i aim to list 100 items a week or so. and small entrepreneurs like isabella mean more business for big online selling platforms. vinted is one of those seeing a surge. its number of registered buyers and sellers in the uk has soared — from 1.2 million two years ago, to eight million today. the growth of second—hand's absolutely phenomenal. and, you know, a whole, whole host of different reasons. but i think people are... you know, people are more and more wanting to sell on platforms like vinted, you know, to make a bit of extra money — cost—of—living crisis, you know, it all... it all... it's very understandable. but on the buying side, people still want to buy items, but they want to buy more affordable items. second hand, you're often able to trade up to things that
6:34 am
you wouldn't have been able to afford when they're new. and platforms like vinted offer this vast assortment of choice and options to buy. and then, of course, there's the sustainability aspect, as well. why would people use a platform like yours when it's so easy now of course, some people will always prefer to do it the old—fashioned way — rummaging and rifling through the rails, never knowing what bargains they may discover. i have to say i am very much in that camp. this is adrian, who does the number crunching at emmaus. how are sales at the moment? fin number crunching at emmaus. how are sales at the moment?— sales at the moment? on the up, we have done very _ sales at the moment? on the up, we have done very well. _ sales at the moment? on the up, we have done very well. five _ sales at the moment? on the up, we have done very well. five out - sales at the moment? on the up, we have done very well. five out of - sales at the moment? on the up, we have done very well. five out of the i have done very well. five out of the last six _ have done very well. five out of the last six months have been record months _ last six months have been record months for— last six months have been record months for us. we have been able to reinvest _ months for us. we have been able to reinvest that — months for us. we have been able to reinvest that money on getting some triple glazing to make us more energy— triple glazing to make us more energy efficient.— triple glazing to make us more ener: efficient. ., , . �* energy efficient. that is what we're allt in: energy efficient. that is what we're all trying to — energy efficient. that is what we're all trying to do _ energy efficient. that is what we're all trying to do to _ energy efficient. that is what we're all trying to do to cut _ energy efficient. that is what we're all trying to do to cut down - energy efficient. that is what we're all trying to do to cut down the - all trying to do to cut down the energy bills. hazel is the manager here. adrian says sales are going

6:39 am
the premier league and the fa cup — could now boast the treble. only the second english team to do so after manchester united in 1999. the most significant dates in the club's history printed on the side of its etihad stadium — 2023 will no doubt be added. the transformation of this club has been incredible — especially when you consider, just over two decades ago, they were playing in the third tier of english football. it's stratospheric. be honest with you, trying to find the words and the superlatives to try to describe it when sheikh mansour first came into the club. and, yes, there's been a lot of money, but they've actually invested. the recruitment has been second to none, really. huge successes on the field, but these latest achievements come with city still facing more than 100 financial charges by the premier league. the club has always denied any wrongdoing. since their 2008 takeover by investors from abu dhabi, success domestically almost instantly followed.
6:40 am
yet europe's biggest club prize — the champions league — had eluded them until now. after winning 17 major trophies in the last 15 years, manchester city know a thing or two about throwing a parade — but this evening's may well be the biggest one yet. nesta mcgregor, bbc news. that parade begins in manchester at 6:30pm. there is a stage show afterwards, as well. novak djokovic says there's more to come after he became the first men's tennis player to win 23 grand slam singles titles after victory at the french open. the 36—year—old recovered from an uncertain start against norway's casper ruud to win the final in straight sets, moving him past rafa nadal — who has 22 majors — and three clear of roger federer. look at what it meant to him. djokovic is also the first man to win all four majors at least three times. he's now within one grand slam win of margaret court's
6:41 am
all—time record of 2a, with wimbledon starting three weeks today. of course, journey is still not over. i feel... you know, if i'm winning slams, why even think about, you know, ending the career that that already has been going on for 20 years? so, you know, istill feel motivated, i still feel inspired to play the best tennis on these tournaments the most — you know, grand slams — those are the ones that count, i guess, the most in the history of our sport, so... i look forward already to to wimbledon. andy murray called it a perfect start to the grass court season — after winning his first title on the surface since wimbledon in 2016. he's hoping to arrive at this year's champoinships in good form having he's hoping to arrive at this year's championships in good form having deliberately missed the french open and beat austria'sjurij rodionov in straight sets to win the surbiton trophy in a final that was delayed for three hours because of rain.
6:42 am
it's murray's second atp challenger title in as many months. judy murray enjoyed her son's win there but she also took time to praise his great rival novak djokovic on his victory at roland garros posting this picture on social media. "this is what novak djokovic looked like when i first watched him play against andy when they were 11. what an incredible career he has gone on to have. record—breaking 23 grand slam titles — goat emoji." laughter great picture. the goat stuff will debated. but what still strikes me, novak djokovic was among grand slam when roger federer was on 16 and it felt like an impossible gap to try to close. i know he is a divisive figure, like marmite, but the work he has put in to close the gap and now he has the outright lead on 23 grand slam titles. he now he has the outright lead on 23 grand slam titles.— grand slam titles. he is controversial _ grand slam titles. he is controversial and - grand slam titles. he is controversial and has i grand slam titles. he is i controversial and has may grand slam titles. he is - controversial and has may be grand slam titles. he is _ controversial and has may be more of an edge than roger federer.

and that is the reason they have asked us to ballot them again for a further period of industrial action. it worked the last time because in the past six months we have had negotiations with government, negotiations with government, negotiations we would not have had, i believe, and our nursing staff believe, if they have not have taken the action they took. so they are willing to take that action again and they lose out during that action, so this is not about them being selfish or reckless. it is about standing up again for the health service, just as we are about to embark on the 75th year anniversary stop we should be celebrating it and we need to celebrate it by being able to fill the vacant posts we have. back celebrate it by being able to fill the vacant posts we have. 8ack in aril, the vacant posts we have. 8ack in april. your _ the vacant posts we have. 8ack in april, your members _ the vacant posts we have. 8ack in april, your members only - the vacant posts we have. 8ack in april, your members only quite i april, your members only quite narrowly rejected the government offer. 54% rejected, 46% accepted. i guess it is possible that when you asked them whether what they want to strike again, it may be a majority of your members will say, look, i

6:57 am
to represent uxbridge and south ruislip in parliament." he goes on "i am fighting for the interests of our residents". mrjohnson's decision to step down divided residents at the weekend. i'm sad, really, because i don't like no—one losing theirjobs. he should have been kept in this area, you know, in the thing, myself. just...broke the rules, innit? i didn't really like him. sad for him, really. i think he done the country a good turn, if i'm honest, _ during covid and that. this country is gone completely because of him — because of his actions — and he doesn't take responsibility for anything. and the man the government chose to be minister for london for around three years hasn't made it onto their shortlist to be their candidate for mayor of london. paul scully, the mp for sutton and cheam, only stepped down to pursue his goal of becoming mayor of london but conservative party hq decided against him. the tory shortlist is made of london assembly member, susan hall, former number ten aide daniel korski, or barrister mozammel hossain. the party will decide

7:01 am
at rspb arne, in dorset, look at these views. wherever you look the views are stunning. here is one overlooking the water. the forecast is humid start but many of us have warm sunshine, also some heavy thunderstorms. all of the details later in the programme. it's monday 12th june. mps who have been investigating whether borisjohnson misled parliament about covid lockdown parties are meeting today to conclude their inquiry. mrjohnson has already seen a copy of their report and he resigned as an mp on friday describing the common's privileges committee as a kangaroo court. our political correspondent damian grammaticas reports. this is what the privileges committee has been looking into. borisjohnson attending pandemic parties. at one he broke the law and was fined. did he lie to parliament? will the prime minister tell the house whether there was a party in downing street
7:02 am
on the 13th of november? prime minister. mr speaker, no, but i'm sure that whatever happened, the guidance was followed and the rules were followed at all times. for almost exactly a year, the seven mps on the privileges committee, a majority of whom are conservatives, have been investigating his conduct. last week, they sent him notice of their findings. it's certain they will be highly critical, as mrjohnson resigned abruptly on hearing the contents of their report. in his resignation statement, he insisted, "i did not lie". he accused them of being "determined to drive me out of parliament," and called it "the very definition of a kangaroo court." by itself, however, the committee could not have ended his political career. the full house of commons would have had to support any sanction it recommended. the very worst case would have been a new by—election
7:03 am
in which he could have stood. by resigning, mrjohnson has escaped facing any sanction. but the committee is likely to publish its report this week and his kangaroo court comments may mean it adds a new section saying his conduct has impugned the integrity of parliament. damian grammaticas, bbc news. our chief political correspondent nick eardleyjoins us now. boris nick eardleyjoins us now. johnson has seen it, wh the borisjohnson has seen it, when will the rest of us see this report? morning, jon. the committee is going to meet in a few hours' time, finalise the report, and we think they want to get it out as quickly as possible. and expect that by the end of the week we will be talking on breakfast about the specific contents. i think they will publish it in the next couple of days, may be as soon as tomorrow. i think it will be damning, i think it will criticise borisjohnson for his criticise boris johnson for his comments where he criticise borisjohnson for his comments where he said criticise boris johnson for his comments where he said that all
7:04 am
rules had been followed in downing street. it may well criticise some of his conduct when he gave evidence to mps earlier this year as well. and we know that the report is going to have said that if borisjohnson had quit parliament —— had not had quit parliament, as he did so dramatically on friday, he should have been suspended for more than ten days. that matters because it would have meant that the process which could have triggered a by—election would have started. it does seem a bit like borisjohnson jumped before he was pushed. but he's very angry, his are very angry, there's a good —— his allies are very angry, there is a good chance we will get a vote this week or next on the contents of this report which could lead to another round of blood—letting in the conservative party is with borisjohnson's allies saying, this is a stitch up. others are saying, in the words of one tory mp, that borisjohnson should shut
7:05 am
up mp, that borisjohnson should shut up and go away. he may have quit parliament but he is still dominating the headlines stop i'd certainly this week, indeed, thank you. scotland's first minister, humza yousaf, is facing calls to suspend nicola sturgeon from the scottish national party after she was arrested as part of the police investigation into the snp's finances. ms sturgeon was released last night without charge pending further inquiries, and has insisted she's innocent of any wrongdoing. our scotland correspondent lorna gordon has more. nicola sturgeon was scotland's longest serving first minister and for years was the most powerful figure in scottish politics. on sunday she was arrested and questioned as a suspect by police for more than seven hours. after being released without charge, ms sturgeon issued an emphatic, vehement denial of any wrongdoing. "i am certain i have committed no offence," she said, describing the situation as both a shock and deeply distressing. she thanked her supporters, saying they appreciated she would never do anything to harm either the snp or the country.
7:06 am
before insisting, in the strongest possible terms, that "i am in fact innocent of any wrongdoing." her arrest, though, is a setback for her successor as first minister. humza yousaf has been trying to regain the political initiative. speaking before ms sturgeon's questioning under caution, he insisted his political mentor was doing well. she and i have caught up on a couple of occasions. i've been asking about her welfare, she has mentioned how difficult and traumatic those last few weeks have been. is she ok? she's in a good place, doing well. this is the third high—profile arrest in the investigation into the funding and finances of the snp. ms sturgeon's husband, peter murrell, the former chief executive of the party, was previously arrested and released without charge. the home they both shared searched by police. the party's headquarters was also searched. officers removing material.
7:07 am
later they arrested and released without charge the party's former treasurer, colin beattie. back in april, ms sturgeon described it all as beyond her worst nightmares. there are many questions that i would want to be able to answer, and in the fullness of time, i hope i will answer. but it would be wrong and inappropriate for me to get into any detail that is related to what the police are currently investigating. i could not have anticipated in my worst nightmares what would have unfolded over the past few weeks. her arrest has been seized on by political opponents. this is an appalling scandal at the time where scotland desperately needs change and desperately needs a government working for them to deal with their priorities. and they're certainly not getting that at the moment from either of their governments. nicola sturgeon has declared her intention to return to the scottish parliament. but there have been calls from both the opposition and from within her own party for her to be suspended from the snp while police inquiries are ongoing. lorna gordon, bbc news, glasgow.

7:09 am
well, angus mcneil, an snp mp has said, this soap opera has gone far enough and nicola sturgeon suspended others from the party for an awful lot less. it feels unlikely humza yousaf will suspend her, but he is going to face pressure and a lot of focus on his policies, his politics and his predecessor over the next few days. and his predecessor over the next few da s. ., ~ and his predecessor over the next few da s. ., ,, i. ., ., police in county antrim have charged two men after suspected human remains were found in the search for a 21—year—old woman. chloe mitchell was last seen in ballymena over a week ago. since then extensive searches took place in an attempt to find her. a 26—year—old man has been charged with murder. whilst a 34—year—old man has been charged with assisting offenders. both will appear in court today. an eleven—year—old british girl has been shot dead in north—western france, following a reported dispute between neighbours. the shooting happened in the village of saint—herbot, in brittany. the girl's parents were also hurt.

7:16 am
ofsted says it's keeping a focus on children but has listened. julia waters, ruth perry's sister, has met ministers and officials. she says this is a start with much more needed. telling me it's wrong that schools are summed up with one overall judgment. i believe if the single word judgment is not removed, that all of the doubtless hard work and efforts to improve the inspection system will be seen to be wasted. it was the thing that preyed on ruth's mind for those 5a days, that one word, the fact that it was one word that was summing up 32 years of dedication to the education profession. that one word, inadequate, diminished everything else.
7:17 am
i'm furious. are you furious? in sheffield parents have been campaigning. their secondary school judged inadequate, they were told it had to become an academy. it's a bit of a heart sink moment because inadequate, i mean, that's essentially a failing school. one of the other campaigners said parents were stunned. it's not... the one word judgment doesn't just label the school. it labels the whole school community. so there was a lot of upset, i think, and confusion and some anger, but also mainly people just not knowing what this was going to mean. this is just really cemented for me that the ofsted report doesn't really reflect what a school is and everything that a school is about. ofsted reports are there for parents but they have other consequences. the debate about those is far from over. branwen jeffreys, bbc news.

let's now speak to ofsted's chief inspector, amanda spielman. good inspector, amanda spielman. morning. good morr ruth good morning. good morning. we heard ruth per 's good morning. good morning. we heard ruth perry's sister— good morning. good morning. we heard ruth perry's sister saying _ good morning. good morning. we heard ruth perry's sister saying that _ good morning. good morning. we heard ruth perry's sister saying that the i ruth perry's sister saying that the thing that she wants first of all is an end to those one—word judgments that at school is good or inadequate or whatever, we are not changing the system, why? brute or whatever, we are not changing the system. why?— or whatever, we are not changing the system, why? we are not because the whole school — system, why? we are not because the whole school accountability _ system, why? we are not because the whole school accountability system i whole school accountability system is built around those judgments. government decides when to support schools, when to intervene, based around those judgments, schools, when to intervene, based around thosejudgments, so it is not for me to frustrate that system by changing the model. that's a conversation for a different place. we are doing here is something that we really do think can help to allay the concerns that are felt by heads often in the context of disappointing inspection outcomes.
7:19 am
so, first of all, for this very small number of schools who are judged inadequate, only by reason of ineffective safeguarding, we are going to be earlier revisits to those schools. this is a small number, 99% of schools are safeguarding effective at the moment, only 12 schools in this year and the last that are in this position. it is important to give them that chance sooner. we are also overhauling our complaints system. we have looked again, we work hard on complaints but we know that people do not find the process as satisfying as they should so we are doing more work on that. and we are doing more work on that. and we are doing some informational things to help heads to really understand and not built up concerns, so around the timing of the next inspection, post covid we know a lot of people were confused even about roughly which year they are next likely to be inspected, reinforcing that head is

absolutely can talk to colleagues, governors, and the people around them are bad inspection outcomes, it's not something they have to keep as a personal —— about inspection outcomes. they don't have to keep it as a personal secret. and changing the language on reports so we are not over focused on the head and senior leaders. it's a set of things around inspection which itself is built around professional dialogue, about being a process which feels done with, done to, and by inspectors who are themselves recent or current serving leaders. but inspectors who are themselves recent or current serving leaders.— or current serving leaders. 8ut you know that reaction _ or current serving leaders. 8ut you know that reaction from _ or current serving leaders. 8ut you know that reaction from ruth's i know that reaction from ruth's family and teachers and unions to the list of changes you have come up with is, ok, this is a step in the right direction, but it is not enough. do you understand their frustration that this is not gone further? 3,5 frustration that this is not gone further? �* , ., frustration that this is not gone further? �* , . , ., , further? as i have explained, this is something _ further? as i have explained, this is something which _ further? as i have explained, this is something which sits _ further? as i have explained, this is something which sits with i is something which sits with government, not with ofsted. it is not for me to make these bigger

refer to them. then they get the richness that everybody wants to come out of inspection. but richness that everybody wants to come out of inspection.- richness that everybody wants to come out of inspection. 8ut a full and rounded _ come out of inspection. 8ut a full and rounded picture _ come out of inspection. 8ut a full and rounded picture in _ come out of inspection. 8ut a full and rounded picture in one i come out of inspection. 8ut a full and rounded picture in one word, j and rounded picture in one word, thatis and rounded picture in one word, that is what many people question. i know i keep going back to this, but it seems to be the issue which has frustrated so many people, that one word. you say you can't do anything about that as ofsted. is that really full and rounded? brute about that as ofsted. is that really full and rounded?— about that as ofsted. is that really full and rounded? we have talked to many people — full and rounded? we have talked to many people about _ full and rounded? we have talked to many people about this. _ full and rounded? we have talked to many people about this. the - full and rounded? we have talked to i many people about this. the message that comes back is essentially people are really talking about the fact ofjudgments and the consequences. wrapping them in different words, more words, viewing words, whatever, is a second—order consideration. the point is there are many people who would prefer that this inspection system did not have consequences, but we do have a school system where we give schools a great deal of freedom and autonomy, but in return, there is external scrutiny. and safeguarding children really matters. it's the kind of thing which is not very visible to parents when it's going
7:23 am
wrong, but if it is going wrong, first of all, that needs to be known, and secondly, it needs to be acted on quickly. so the message here really is, we have got to stay focused on children and the things that are right for them. can! focused on children and the things that are right for them.— that are right for them. can i 'ust ask about safeguarding? it's h that are right for them. can i just ask about safeguarding? it's one | that are right for them. can i just l ask about safeguarding? it's one of those words that is used so often in education in all aspects of life, and a lot of this struggle to understand what is safeguarding. can you explain it to mums and dads, grandparents, watching this morning, whose kids are going to school, when we talk about safeguarding within a school, what things are we talking about in reality? l school, what things are we talking about in reality?— about in reality? i will give you a coule of about in reality? i will give you a couple of obvious _ about in reality? i will give you a couple of obvious examples. - about in reality? i will give you a| couple of obvious examples. one about in reality? i will give you a i couple of obvious examples. one is making sure that the adults who are working in a school are safe to be there, so we do expect a dbs check, orfour there, so we do expect a dbs check, or four people for overseas, some kind of equivalent check or a risk assessment, to make sure that their suitability has considered. for the children who are known to social services, you are in care, who are
7:24 am
in need, who are getting early help, to make sure that the basic level of join up is there between the school and social services, that the people who are working with the child know what is going on. and know who they should be talking to. really fundamental things like that about making sure that critical aspects of children's lives do not full through the cracks. �* ., ., children's lives do not full through the cracks— children's lives do not full through the cracks. �* ., ., ., . the cracks. amanda spielman, chief executive of — the cracks. amanda spielman, chief executive of ofsted, _ the cracks. amanda spielman, chief executive of ofsted, thank - the cracks. amanda spielman, chief executive of ofsted, thank you. - the cracks. amanda spielman, chief executive of ofsted, thank you. we | executive of ofsted, thank you. we will speak tojulia executive of ofsted, thank you. we will speak to julia waters, the sister of ruth perry, who took her life, later on. it was a night to remember for manchester city fans as they celebrated their champion league win. and for one boy in particular it was a dream come true. you may remember city—mad i2—year—old finlay made headlines last year after he inspired a special celebration by city player

7:30 am
still hasn't updated. on the front page, borisjohnson still says, "it's a real privilege to represent uxbridge and south ruislip in parliament." he goes on — "i am fighting for the interests of our residents." well, mrjohnson's decision to step down divided residents at the weekend. i'm sad, really, because i don't like no—one losing theirjobs. he should have been kept in this area, you know, in the thing, myself. just...broke the rules, innit? i didn't really like him. sad for him, really. i think he done the country a good turn, if i'm honest, _ during covid and that. this country is gone completely because of him — because of his actions — and he doesn't take responsibility for anything. and the man the government chose to be minister for london for around three years hasn't made it onto their shortlist to be their candidate for mayor of london. paul scully, the mp for sutton and cheam, only stepped down to pursue his goal of becoming mayor of london but conservative party hq decided against him.
7:31 am
the tory shortlist is made of london assembly member, the tory shortlist is made of london assembly member susan hall, former number 10 aide daniel korski, or barrister mozammel hossain. the party will decide upon their candidate next month. the warm weather means a busy time for ice—cream vans but they could soon be banned from roads in the royal borough of greenwich. plans have been published to ban ice—cream vans from 30 roads, including around greenwich park and woolwich. council documents show the ban was proposed due to what's called the "nuisance" caused by trading and the impact on air quality from "engine idling". a final decision will be made on wednesday. let's take a look at the tubes now. there is a planned issue on the overground. claphamjunction is closed today and will be for the rest of the day, so be aware. now onto the weather with kate.
7:32 am
good morning. it was a warm, humid, quite uncomfortable night for many. beautiful sunrise there you can see over in twickenham first thing this morning. now, today, there is a chance of some thunderstorms — the met office has a yellow weather warning in place, valid from midday through the afternoon into the evening. not everywhere will see them once again — but, if you do, heavy, thundery downpours, some hail mixed in. elsewhere, dry, sunny spells between any showers we do get, and temperatures reaching 28 celsius. now, into this evening, that shower starts to fade, it moves away — dry and clear overnight. the minimum temperature — it's going to be warm again — between 12 and 15 celsius. and we're hanging onto the warm air as we head into tuesday, as well. in fact, we're going to hang on to this warm air for much of this week. tomorrow, it's looking dry, fine and sunny, we've got high pressure in charge, and temperatures once again at reaching around 28 celsius. reaching around 28 celsius. now, as you can see, there's not a huge amount of rain in the forecast — it's dry, lots of sunshine throughout, and temperatures in the mid—to—high 20s.

another one week ahead. i will be backjust before 8am. goodbye for now. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. thank you forjoining us this monday morning. we've been talking about how the commons privileges committee will conclude its investigation into whether borisjohnson misled parliament over downing street lockdown parties, later today. the former prime minister resigned as an mp on friday over the report's findings. we're joined now by michael gove, secretary of state for levelling up, housing and communities. good morning. is this the last we have seen of borisjohnson, do you think? his have seen of boris johnson, do you think? , . , ., ., have seen of boris johnson, do you think? , .,., .,, , ., think? his decision to step down, i acknowledge. _ think? his decision to step down, i acknowledge, it _ think? his decision to step down, i acknowledge, it means _ think? his decision to step down, i acknowledge, it means that - think? his decision to step down, i acknowledge, it means that he i think? his decision to step down, i acknowledge, it means that he is l think? his decision to step down, i l acknowledge, it means that he is no longer a member of parliament and life moves on. the government is concentrating today on making sure that the people's priorities,
7:34 am
halving inflation, reducing debt, growing the economy, cutting waiting lists and stopping the boats are pursued with vigour. as for boris�* future, that is a matter for him. how much warning did you get he was going to resign? is it true you all heard about the resignation the same way we did, on social media? yes. way we did, on social media? yes, absolutely- — way we did, on social media? yes, absolutely- i— way we did, on social media? yes, absolutely. i was _ way we did, on social media? yes, absolutely. i wasjust _ way we did, on social media? yes, absolutely. i wasjust about - way we did, on social media? 1s: absolutely. i was just about to sit down to dinner when a friend informed me that boris had resigned. i was surprised, i think, it is probably fair to say, and, again, over the course of the weekend, there has been reporting about the privileges committee and its report but it is not yet published. it will be published i think this week, the committee as you say i meeting today. once that report is published we will all have an opportunity to reflect on its contents and judgment. reflect on its contents and judgment-— reflect on its contents and judgment. reflect on its contents and 'udument. �* ., . judgment. and then we will once aaain be judgment. and then we will once again be talking _ judgment. and then we will once again be talking about _ judgment. and then we will once again be talking about boris i again be talking about boris johnson, won't we? how much longer is the conservative party going to

7:36 am
develop money that the government spends, which is vital, is spread outside oxford, cambridge and london, newcastle, manchester, sheffield and beyond. and that will be my focus today this week. what be my focus today this week. what else is a distraction _ be my focus today this week. what else is a distraction is _ be my focus today this week. what else is a distraction is three by—elections that the party now has to face. i wonder what your reaction is to that at a time when i imagine the government is seeking stability, craving... i don't know, a smooth passage, if you like, to the next general election. you now have three by—elections to fight. boris johnson is not helping you, is he? by-elections to fight. boris johnson is not helping you, is he?— by-elections to fight. boris johnson is not helping you, is he? there are by-elections- _ is not helping you, is he? there are by-elections. by-elections - is not helping you, is he? there are by-elections. by-elections during l by—elections. by—elections during the course of any government's time is challenging, but we have good candidates. i know they will be in place. a good candidate who has been selected in selby. i'm looking forward to supporting them. elections are part of political life. it is also the case i think
7:37 am
that you do best in elections when you concentrate on good government and we are united behind rishi sunak and we are united behind rishi sunak and making sure that we demonstrate that the priority is the british public have by those which govern every waking moment that we have. later today, the prime minister will be saying more about technology. we are very lucky that the uk is the country in europe that is leading the tech revolution, £1 trillion of investment, which has been secured by the conservative government and by the conservative government and by the conservative government and by the prime minister, and we need to make sure that investment is augmented. again, that is ourfocus but politicians are always fighting elections. ., ., ~ ., elections. you talk about good government- _ elections. you talk about good government. would _ elections. you talk about good government. would good i elections. you talk about good - government. would good government now be to calla general election? government. would good government now be to call a general election? i don't think so. it is vitally important we deal with the issues that i mentioned earlier. people who are naturally concerned about the cost of living, they want to see us halving inflation. we need to reduce
7:38 am
the debt that was built up as a result of the pandemic, and indeed the war in ukraine. we have to grow the war in ukraine. we have to grow the prime minister making the series of announcements today about technology. we have to reduce waiting lists because the nhs is the single most important public service and the health secretary steve barclay has been very successful in bringing extra focus and attention to that. and of course we have to stop the boats, we need to make sure we deal with the scandal of people smuggling and illegal migration, and again the home secretary has been super energetic in michael shure that we can, as has been recorded, reduce the number of people coming here and return people to albania. boris johnson's here and return people to albania. borisjohnson's resignation honours list was announced earlier on friday. when you have expected something for yourself from that? no. for me, the most important thing is to make sure that i do myjob, keep my focus on that. so, of all the surprises over the course of the weekend, the least surprising thing

more is one of the headlines. they have won one and they want more. the champions league final next season is in london. finally, city, the holy grail, they wanted that perhaps more than any other trophy and now they have it. they will celebrate with their supporters across the city today. here it is, from istanbul. pep guardiola leading his team off their plane which was emblazoned in manchester city colours for their journey home from istanbul. thousands are expected on the streets of manchester later, 24 years after the only other english men's team to win the treble, manchester united did the same. novak djokovic says there's more to come — after he became the first men's tennis player to win 23 grand slam singles titles after victory at the french open. the 36—year—old recovered from an uncertain start
7:42 am
when you've achieved what novak djokovic has, maybe you would need a lie down too. statistically the best man ever to play tennis following his latest grand slam triumph. i was a seven—year—old dreaming that i could win wimbledon and become number one in the world one day. as i said, i'm beyond grateful and blessed to be standing here with so many incredible achievements. 23 of them, in fact, one clear of rafa nadal, who was quick to congratulate djokovic. "23 is a number thatjust a few years back was impossible to think about," he said. "you made it." having grown up in war—torn serbia, djokovic was a champion in waiting from the moment he stepped on court. mentally tough, relentlessly competitive, already a four—time major winner by the time he won his first wimbledon in 2011, by the time he won his seventh last year his legacy was secure. now the most successful man in tennis — but the greatest?
7:43 am
certainly in terms of overall grand slams at the moment he certainly looks like he's the greatest men's tennis player of all—time, but then we always have to look at the open era against the amateurs, so there's lots of equations that come into being an important factor. and aged 36 and with two more majors in his trophy cabinet this year so far, he shows no signs of slowing down. rather ominously for his rivals perhaps, he could become greater still. ben croucher, bbc news. andy murray called it a perfect start to the grass court season — after winning his first title on the surface since wimbleon in 2016. he's hoping to arrive at this year's champoinships in good form having deliberately missed the french open and beat austria'sjurij rodionov in straight sets to win the surbitontrophy in a final that was delayed for three hours because of rain. it's murray's second atp challenger

title in as many months. wimbledon is starting three weeks today. judy murray enjoyed her son's win there — but she also took time to praise his great rival novak djokovic on his victory at roland garros — posting this picture on social media. "this is what novak djokovic looked like when i first watched him play against andy when they were 11. what an incredible career he has gone on to have. record breaking 23 grand slam titles. goat emoji." i love the fact thatjudy murray, not content with just posting some embarrassing pictures of andy murray has now moved on to novak djokovic. she can do no wrong! has now moved on to novak d'okovic. she can do no wrong!* she can do no wrong! lovely stuff. thank ou she can do no wrong! lovely stuff. thank you very _ she can do no wrong! lovely stuff. thank you very much. _ carol is in dorset with the weather. she is not alone!— she is not alone! what is that, carol? look — she is not alone! what is that, carol? look at _ she is not alone! what is that, carol? look at that, _ she is not alone! what is that, carol? look at that, isn't - she is not alone! what is that, carol? look at that, isn't that l carol? look at that, isn't that gorgeous? i am carol? look at that, isn't that gorgeous? iam in carol? look at that, isn't that gorgeous? i am in a queer one in dorset, and someone who can tell me

7:51 am
and a half later they said they would do an mri to have a look because the number has gone a bit higher so we did the mri and they said there is a bit of an area of concern. chance it might be cancer and you kind of girl, ok, what does that mean? he said let'sjust and you kind of girl, ok, what does that mean? he said let's just do the biopsy and we will have a look. they took some samples and he said we couldn't have cut it any earlier, you have been caught really early so you have been caught really early so you don't require treatment. you don't have any symptoms so all we will do is psa blood test, a simple blood test, once every three months and an mri once a year. i asked the likelihood of treatment and he said at this point you are probably ten to 15 years away from any treatment and you may not need it at all. to the men out there, i want to say, please do what i did and do your regular blood tests because we do blood tests every year and you will be as lucky as i have been and that is the key. there are no symptoms in the early stages so a lot of men... i have been doing my own research, talking to them and asking them. a
7:52 am
lot of them don't have an awareness of this stop i will go to the doctor when i have got pain. i don't want to bother the doctor. i will wait till something is hurting. sadly, with prostate cancer, when you have no symptoms, that is the best chance of actually curing it and treating it. so if you wait until you have pain, which is often back pain, that means it has probably started to spread and that is not good. men over 50, spread and that is not good. men over50, if spread and that is not good. men over 50, if you are white, men over 45 if you are black. get a simple blood test. what puts an lot of men off is the digital rectal examination which is the finger up the burn, which puts a lot of men off. i have been diagnosed and from telling lots of men about it and they have gone to gps and the gps have said you don't need the blood test. but we are doing campaign and
7:53 am
you absolutely do! i asked why gps are turning them away and they said because from about ten years ago, psa is to be on its own, not entirely reliable, but he said what they don't realise is the game has changed in a good way for them. the mri technology has improved so much that mri in tandem with a psa blood testis that mri in tandem with a psa blood test is incredibly accurate and then if they are still not sure, you have the biopsy, so the 3—step approach. that started about ten years ago. some gps are in the old way of thinking of psa are not reliable. they are, when used in tandem. chiara, if someone watching this morning is over the age of 50 and a bloke says i have never had one of the test, i think i should, they go to the gp and say, "i would like a test." what are the chances of getting one? mi test." what are the chances of getting one?— test." what are the chances of getting one? test." what are the chances of caettin one? �* . getting one? all men in the uk are eliaible for getting one? all men in the uk are eligible for a _ getting one? all men in the uk are eligible for a free _ getting one? all men in the uk are eligible for a free psa _ getting one? all men in the uk are eligible for a free psa blood i getting one? all men in the uk are eligible for a free psa blood test i eligible for a free psa blood test but the — eligible for a free psa blood test but the big message today is to go

would have had to support any sanction it recommended. the very worst case would have been a new by—election in which he could have stood. by resigning, mrjohnson has escaped facing any sanction. but the committee is likely to publish its report this week and his kangaroo court comments may mean it adds a new section saying his conduct has impugned the integrity of parliament. damian grammaticas, bbc news. our chief political correspondent nick eardleyjoins us now. morning. what exactly will we hear from the privileges committee? good morninu. from the privileges committee? good morning- they — from the privileges committee? good morning- they are — from the privileges committee? (13mg. morning. they are meeting this morning. they are meeting this morning to finalise that the report. and i think we will all see it within the next few days, perhaps as soon as tomorrow. we know that it will be damning, it will criticise boris johnson's will be damning, it will criticise borisjohnson's comments about lockdown parties in downing street
8:04 am
and what did and did not go on behind that famous black door. we know that the committee is going to recommend suspension, sources have told us, of more than ten days which could have started the process which could have started the process which could have started the process which could have triggered the by—election. in that sense it seems clear that boris johnson by—election. in that sense it seems clear that borisjohnson jumped clear that boris johnson jumped before clear that borisjohnson jumped before he was content to be pushed. once that —— potentially pushed. once that —— potentially pushed. once that —— potentially pushed. once that report is published there is going to be a vote on its contents in the commons which can be criticalfor contents in the commons which can be critical for the government because some conservative mps are furious about this, they think boris johnson about this, they think borisjohnson has been about this, they think boris johnson has been stitched up, driven out of parliament. it slightly more complicated than that but they are angry, and i suspect they will make their anger politically. on the other hand, you have a lot of conservative mps who furious at borisjohnson, one saying he should simply shut up and go away. we had
8:05 am
the government minister michael gove on breakfast earlier and he said, life goes on, borisjohnson did some good things but he has made his decision so he is going to stand down. it seems a bit optimistic to me, there are some big divisions in the conservative party about boris johnson's legacy and his future. i suspect we will be seeing a bit more of that in the next few days. i suspect you are right, nick, thank you. scotland's first minister, humza yousaf, is facing calls to suspend nicola sturgeon from the scottish national party after she was arrested as part of the police investigation into the snp's finances. ms sturgeon was released last night without charge pending further inquiries, and has insisted she's innocent of any wrongdoing. our scotland correspondent lorna gordon has more. nicola sturgeon was scotland's longest serving first minister and for years was the most powerful figure in scottish politics. on sunday she was arrested and questioned as a suspect by police for more than seven hours.
8:06 am
after being released without charge, ms sturgeon issued an emphatic, vehement denial of any wrongdoing. "i am certain i have committed no offence," she said, describing the situation as both a shock and deeply distressing. she thanked her supporters, saying they appreciated she would never do anything to harm either the snp or the country. before insisting, in the strongest possible terms, that "i am in fact innocent of any wrongdoing." her arrest, though, is a setback for her successor as first minister. humza yousaf has been trying to regain the political initiative. speaking before ms sturgeon's questioning under caution, he insisted his political mentor was doing well. she and i have caught up on a couple of occasions. i've been asking about her welfare, she has mentioned how difficult and traumatic those last few weeks have been. is she ok? she's in a good place, doing well.
8:07 am
this is the third high—profile arrest in the investigation into the funding and finances of the snp. ms sturgeon's husband, peter murrell, the former chief executive of the party, was previously arrested and released without charge. the home they both shared searched by police. the party's headquarters was also searched. officers removing material. later they arrested and released without charge the party's former treasurer, colin beattie. back in april, ms sturgeon described it all as beyond her worst nightmares. there are many questions that i would want to be able to answer, and in the fullness of time, i hope i will answer. but it would be wrong and inappropriate for me to get into any detail that is related to what the police are currently investigating. i could not have anticipated in my worst nightmares what would have unfolded over the past few weeks. her arrest has been seized on by political opponents. this is an appalling scandal at the time where scotland
8:08 am
desperately needs change and desperately needs a government working for them to deal with their priorities. and they're certainly not getting that at the moment from either of their governments. nicola sturgeon has declared her intention to return to the scottish parliament. but there have been calls from both the opposition and from within her own party for her to be suspended from the snp while police inquiries are ongoing. lorna gordon, bbc news, glasgow. our scotland correspondent lorna gordon is in glasgow for us this morning. what happens now? yes, good morning, jon. ithink what happens now? yes, good morning, jon- i think the — what happens now? yes, good morning, jon. i think the police _ jon. i think the police investigation will continue, it will recede into the background but it has been going on for two years and a dedicated team of officers will continue to sit and analyse the evidence over the days, weeks and possibly months ahead. there's also an awful lot of politics in play in
8:09 am
play now. opposition parties are calling for nicola sturgeon to be suspended from the snp. scottish conservatives calling on humza yousaf to show some leadership and suspend his predecessor. there is also pressure from within the snp as well, angus mcneil, who is the mp for the western isles, has said, this soap opera has gone far enough. nicola sturgeon suspended others from the party or an awful lot less. time for political distance until the investigation ends either way. the fact of the matter is that there has been three high—profile arrests, and neither, none of these people have yet been suspended. it feels very unlikely that nicola sturgeon will be the first to be suspended at this investigation continues. thank you for that, lorna. police in county antrim have charged two men after suspected human remains were found in the search for a 21—year—old woman. chloe mitchell was last seen in ballymena over a week ago. since then extensive searches took

8:11 am
remains. they were at pains to say that there is remains have not yet been identified but they did also say that they now believe that chloe mitchell had been murdered. in court here in ballymena later on this morning, a 26—year—old man will appear who has been charged with murder, and a 34—year—old has been charged with assisting an offender. they will appear a few hundred yards from this place where chloe mitchell lived in was last seen alive nine days ago. lived in was last seen alive nine da s auo. . ~ lived in was last seen alive nine da saao. ., ,, an eleven—year—old british girl has been shot dead in north—western france, following a reported dispute the shooting happened in the village of saint—herbot, in brittany. the girl's parents were also hurt. our correspondent, hugh schofield has the latest. it sounds terrible, this, whew, what have we managed to establish about what happened?—

8:13 am
surrounded the house, he eventually came out and surrounded and he will be charged with murder. his wife is also uncomfortably. the origins of this dispute are not clear —— he is his wife is also in constantly. some people say they that the dutchman was complaining about noise, others say there was a dispute over land. the dutchman was described by some as a recluse and that the british family were perfectly civil neighbours. three british tourists are missing after a diving boat caught fire off egypt's red sea coastline yesterday morning. 26 people, including 12 britons, were rescued from the vessel. the local authority said that the fire was caused by an electrical short circuit in the engine room. the foreign office says it's supporting the british nationals. it was a big night forjodie comer who was among the british winners at the prestigious tony theatre awards for her performance in the one—woman broadway show prima facie.

8:16 am
wales, western northern ireland, central and southern england and south. and we will see some some lapping onto the english channel coastline. cumbria could see the high today of 30. this evening and overnight, the showers will fade away, clear skies, there will be some low cloud lapping onshore across the north—east of scotland. and again the english channel coastline. another sticky night, feeling quite humid with overnight lows into the mid—teens. tomorrow many of us start on a dry note, but once again the showers will get going especially in western and central areas. and we will still have low cloud pegging back the temperature a little bit. some are still feeling humid, not quite as high temperatures as today, the top being 28 or 29 degrees. after that you will find we lose the humidity, a few showers around, still some sunshine, and it will still be warm. thank you very much.
8:17 am
ofsted has set out a number of changes to school inspections in england in response to the criticism surrounding the suicide of the headteacher, ruth perry. they include an overhaul of the complaints system and revisiting schools judged "inadequate" more quickly. but campaigners say the reforms don't go far enough. the watchdog's chief inspector amanda spielman told us the one word summary of how a school is performing will not be scrapped. despite some people calling for it to go. it will not grow. taste despite some people calling for it to go. it will not grow.— despite some people calling for it to go. it will not grow. we are not chanauin to go. it will not grow. we are not changing its _ to go. it will not grow. we are not changing it's because _ to go. it will not grow. we are not changing it's because first - to go. it will not grow. we are not changing it's because first of- to go. it will not grow. we are not changing it's because first of all. changing it's because first of all first school accountability system is built around those judgments. government decides to when to support schools, when to intervene, based on those judgments. support schools, when to intervene, based on thosejudgments. it's not me to frustrate those systems by changing the model. that's a conversation for a different place.
8:18 am
what we are doing here is something that we really do think can help to allay the concerns that are felt by heads of and in the context of disappointing inspection outcomes. let's now speak to ruth perry's sister, julia waters and to primary school head teacher, dave mcpartlin. good morning, both. julia, ifi could come to you first of all, you will know we had amanda spielman on the programme a few minutes ago, i'm interested to know about what you think about the changes that ofsted are suggesting, and the fact that they are not going to change this one word judgment.— they are not going to change this one word judgment. one word 'udgment. welcome of the fact that one word judgment. welcome of the fact that ofsted — one word judgment. welcome of the fact that ofsted and _ one word judgment. welcome of the fact that ofsted and the _ one word judgment. welcome of the fact that ofsted and the department i fact that ofsted and the department for education are finally acknowledging the changes needed is in itself an important and significant step in the right direction. the changes are welcome, but, yes, they don't go anywhere near far enough
8:19 am
but, yes, they don't go anywhere nearfar enough stop but, yes, they don't go anywhere near far enough stop the change to the confidentiality requirement for me is the one that would have made a real difference to my sister. but the refusal to remove the single word judgment is i think a mistake, and i think it's something that i and i think it's something that i and i think it's something that i and i know the majority of the teaching profession will continue to push to get removed. let’s teaching profession will continue to push to get removed.— push to get removed. let's make it absolutely clear _ push to get removed. let's make it absolutely clear to _ push to get removed. let's make it absolutely clear to people - push to get removed. let's make it absolutely clear to people who i push to get removed. let's make it absolutely clear to people who are | absolutely clear to people who are watching, when we talk about a single word judgment, that's the one word that is published about a school's performance. it might be good, outstanding, or inadequate. what amanda spielman from ofsted told us is that it's not really her job to bring that system to an end. she says that above her a great, that's for government to do. do you accept that? —— she says it is above her pay grade. i accept that? -- she says it is above her pay grade-— her pay grade. i gather from the discussions _ her pay grade. i gather from the discussions i _ her pay grade. i gather from the discussions i have _ her pay grade. i gather from the discussions i have been - her pay grade. i gather from the discussions i have been having i her pay grade. i gather from the i discussions i have been having with the secretary of state is that there
8:20 am
are some quite complex reporting and responsibility channels around all of this, different parts of government have different responsibilities for parts of the ofsted inspection system. nonetheless it's quite clear that the chief inspector has not been pushing herself for the removal of those single word judgments, which is the one feature probably, the one most damaging feature of the current system. but i will continue to work with the secretary of state for education in pushing for the removal of that single word judgment, and for reconsidering the way that safeguarding isjudged and for reconsidering the way that safeguarding is judged and assessed in schools as part of the inspection system. in schools as part of the inspection s stem. ,., in schools as part of the inspection s stem. ., in schools as part of the inspection s stem. y., ., ., in schools as part of the inspection s stem. ., ., ., system. dave, your reaction to what amanda spielman _ system. dave, your reaction to what amanda spielman said _ system. dave, your reaction to what amanda spielman said earlier i system. dave, your reaction to what amanda spielman said earlier on i system. dave, your reaction to what amanda spielman said earlier on in | amanda spielman said earlier on in the programme? i’m amanda spielman said earlier on in the programme?— amanda spielman said earlier on in the programme? i'm still getting my head around — the programme? i'm still getting my head around it _ the programme? i'm still getting my head around it all. _ the programme? i'm still getting my head around it all. i _ the programme? i'm still getting my head around it all. i think _ the programme? i'm still getting my head around it all. i think my - head around it all. i think my concern _ head around it all. i think my concern is _ head around it all. i think my concern is it does not address the fear~ _ concern is it does not address the fear~ the — concern is it does not address the fear. the fear going into an ofsted,

8:25 am
so—called inspection handbook, they are dangerously unclear. there is no way, my sister was dedicated, meticulous, hard—working, there is no way she would have fallen foul of clear, well spelt out expectations about what to quote the handbook a culture safeguarding its. what doing something in a timely fashion or in enough detail, what those things mean. safeguarding, we all understand, keeping children safe, is everybody�*s priority. it's an absolute high priority. it was ruth's, she kept those children safe and well and happy in her school. but she fell foul of unclear expectations around paperwork and record keeping. so on. and that has to be absolutely crystal clear, far too much rides on that now,
8:26 am

8:30 am
i'm sad, really, because i don't like no—one losing theirjobs. he should have been kept in this area, you know, in the thing, myself. just...broke the rules, innit? i didn't really like him. sad for him, really. i think he done the country a good turn, if i'm honest, _ during covid and that. this country is gone completely because of him — because of his actions — and he doesn't take responsibility for anything. and the man the government chose to be minister for london for around three years hasn't made it onto their shortlist to be their candidate for mayor of london. paul scully, the mp for sutton and cheam, only stepped down to pursue his goal of becoming mayor of london but conservative party hq decided against him. the tory shortlist is made of london assembly member susan hall, former number 10 aide daniel korski, or barrister mozammel hossain. the party will decide upon their candidate next month. the warm weather means a busy time for ice—cream vans but they could soon be banned from roads in the royal borough of greenwich.

8:32 am
celsius. now, into this evening, that shower starts to fade, it moves away — dry and clear overnight. the minimum temperature — it's going to be warm again — between 12 and 15 celsius. and we're hanging onto the warm air as we head into tuesday, as well. in fact, we're going to hang on to this warm air for much of this week. tomorrow, it's looking dry, fine and sunny, we've got high pressure in charge, and temperatures once again reaching around 28 celsius. now, as you can see, there's not a huge amount of rain in the forecast — it's dry, lots of sunshine throughout, and temperatures in the mid—to—high 20s. that's it, we will have the final update for the morning for you around 9am and there is plenty more on our website. goodbye for now. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. chetan has the sport. that morning. blue skies over manchester. bind

also celebrating history... novak djokovic says there's more to come — after he became the first men's tennis player to win 23 grand slam singles titles after victory at the french open. the 36—year—old recovered from an uncertain start against norway's casper ruud to win the final in straight sets, moving him past rafa nadal — who has 22 majors — and three clear of roger federer. overjoyed at the end. djokovic is also the first man to win all four majors at least three times. he's now within one grand slam win of margaret court's all—time record of 24, with wimbledon starting three weeks today. of course, journey is still not over. i feel... you know, if i'm winning slams, why even think about, you know, ending the career that that already has been going on for 20 years? ending the career that already has been going on for 20 years? so, you know, istill feel motivated, i still feel inspired to play the best tennis on these tournaments the most — you know, grand slams — those are the ones that count, i guess, the most in the history of our sport, so...

record—breaking for them. that is reflecting a national picture of how we are engaging more with charity shops and second hand. overall there has been a 15% increase in charity shop sales. the british heart foundation alone say they have sold 28 million items, second—hand items, in their last year alone. have you heard of the online app vinted, where you can buy and sell items? they have gone from 1.2 million members all the way up to 8 million members all the way up to 8 million members in the space ofjust two years. obviously it is because we are feeling the pinch a lot more. inflation at 10%, your money is not going as far, we are looking for those bargains. is everyone a winner? ben boulos has been finding out. second—hand, pre—loved, recycled — when it comes to clothes, more of us are seeking out bargains instead of always buying new. and where there are trends, there are business opportunities. first, the fashion blogger and advisor. rosie has 4,000 subscribers who follow her tips on where and how

to buy second—hand, like at this sct charity shop in east london. just walk into your local charity shop — you don't have to buy anything the first time, butjust get comfortable in the space, get comfortable with rummaging a little bit. it's not like going into a high—street shop — it is a little bit different — and i personally like that about it. ifind it quite relaxing. there's not, like, blasting music, things like that. and then also there's some fantastic apps like vinted, where you can... sorry, i got distracted because there's a girl trying the shoes i really want on! laughter. i find a pair of shoes that i love, but then i wear them until they fall apart. so i'm constantly looking for, like, the next pair of shoes that i can wear to death. and the ones we saw you buy today — how much were they? they were £65. bargain! i think so. i mean, from what you said about them being 500 retail, i'm very happy. i didn't know that — ijust like the way they look. so, rosie, as someone like me, where do you begin when you're presented with all of this choice? i feel like you've just

got to dive in and kind of see what you can find. with charity shops, often things can be, like, hidden, so just have a proper look because you can find, like, some real hidden gems sort of buried between two pieces of clothing. 0k. what kind of colours do you wear, as well? i feel like that's also a great way to... so i quite like something a little bit bright, something with a little bit of colour, a bit of character. 0k. i mean, you'd never tell from this jacket, would you? so this is levi, so you know it will be really good quality. ohh, 0k. and how much is this? £7? £7, which is amazing. it's not bad — £7. what do you think, shall i try this? yeah, try it on for sure. right. let's give it a go. there we go — what do you think? so good. i love it. really nice. what do you think — tucked in, tucked out? i'm a tucked—out person, personally. you're the expert. i'll go with you. rosie, thank you very much. the thing is, though, what if you're not sure where to get the best bargains? maybe you don't have time and you may not have an expert like rosie out shopping with you. well, enter our next business —

the online seller, isabella. she started selling unwanted clothes on the app depop to make some extra cash while studying. it's now herfull—time business, with three staff and sales totalling £800,000 since 2015. so how does it work? for example, some of the items that i source might come from, like, warehouses. there are, like, huge warehouses in the uk full and full and full of vintage stock. like, it's almost unimaginable. a lot of my pieces come from there. i have a buyer who is one of my full—time employees and she goes around the country sourcing second—hand for me. i'll style the pieces, shoot the looks on my little tripod. once i've shot it, then we list it on the app and i aim to list 100 items a week or so. and small entrepreneurs like isabella mean more business for big online selling platforms. vinted is one of those seeing a surge. its number of registered buyers and sellers in the uk has soared — from 1.2 million two years ago, to eight million today. the growth of second—hand's absolutely phenomenal.

and, you know, a whole... a whole host of different reasons. but i think people are... you know, people are more and more wanting to sell on platforms like vinted, you know, to make a bit of extra money — cost—of—living crisis, you know, it all... it all... it's very understandable. but on the buying side, people still want to buy items, but they want to buy more affordable items. second hand, you're often able to trade up to things that you wouldn't have been able to afford when they're new. and platforms like vinted offer this vast assortment of choice and options to buy. and then, of course, there's the sustainability aspect, as well. of course, some people will always prefer to do it the old—fashioned way — rummaging and rifling through the rails, never knowing what bargains they may discover. 0h, oh, ilove oh, i love a rummage. look at this. if you enjoy crafting, i make my children make their own beth deck
